http://code.google.com/p/android-wired-tether/

This app is the wired version of the Wireless tether that comes installed on the MoDaCo rom.

I've been following this app recently, and have it installed on the Hero, but of course since it was ported for the G1 only, it doesn't work on our Hero. It's interesting because it was created with pieces from the Hero in the first place. It says on the site that it will tell you that you do not have the proper kernel installed if that requirement isn't met, and I'm NOT receiving that message.

In fact, everything seems to go just fine when I launch the app, and allow root access. It's right after that where I get a FC as the app is trying to access the system settings menu.

Any smarties out there that would care to take a stab at how we could get this working for both the GSM and CDMA Hero?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] redram38:
Why not use PdaNet it seems to work fine on my laptop. I do have a question on tethering however either wireless or usb. Is it ok to do this on a Sprint everything data plan or do I have to upgrade to something else. If I tether without upgrading will I see a large charge on my bill? I do not use it much if ever but was just wondering if this would effect my bill.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] kmartburrito:
If PDANet wasn't 30 bucks, I'd gladly consider it. However, I've been tethering over USB with all of my Sprint phones for goodness knows how long, with no problems.

With your everything data plan, you shouldn't see any problems at all. The wired tether app basically just starts an adhoc wireless connection, and then funnels through your data connection to the laptop connected to it. To the data line, and to Sprint, it's no different than an app using data.

In essence, this is how ANY wired USB app should eventually work from a tethering standpoint. Yes, Sprint uses a two tiered NAI system to control data and PAM. However, the trick ALWAYS has been to have the phone not report/act that it's using PAM, rather just turn on mobile sharing and funnel through the internet connection. This is how it worked with Windows Mobile phones too, and eventually will be the same with our Hero. It will have to eventually be done on the Application level, rather than using mobile connection sharing through settings. When this is activated, the Hero attempts to use the PAM settings. We'll either have to remove this somehow, or do it all through the app itself. It will have to be a "middle man" of sorts, isolating the incoming data line, and then acting as a liaison to push it through the USB to the laptop.

That's how I understand it in my head, anyway :D
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] CapnBry:
I'm not sure what triggers it, but most of the time that command line works for tethering for me (which is why I originally posted it). About one in five times I get the error 67.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] kmartburrito:
So, can you help clarify your workflow for using it? Are you running it from an ADB Shell on your laptop, or are you launching it from a terminal emulator on your Hero? Also, do you have any wireless settings modified (such as hybrid vs. 1x only) or do you have the mobile network turned off first?

Or, are you more simply just running this from a shell while everything is up and running as normal?

Thanks in advance!
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] mrinehart93:
FYI, you can use PdaNet for free WITHOUT paying for it. You only are required to pay for it for any use other than HTTP://. FTP use isn't really a good idea anyway because if Sprint see's you're tethering too much data, they'll know you're tethering and cut you.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] kmartburrito:
Hmm...I guess I didn't know that. Thanks a lot! This should work until we get a rooted solution.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] ajones7279:
Not necessarily. I was tethering daily at one point and they never said a word. This includes browsing and downloading 1gb+ torrents. :p
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] harry_m:
Mmmh ... you guys could try this application:

http://code.google.com/p/android-wired-tether/

This is 99% based on "Wireless Tether for Root Users" and might work. I've never tested it on a hero. I have it running on a G1 and Magic ... both with a patched kernel - these patches came from Zinx Verituse and the hero-kernel was base for this port.

No idea if it really works ... but you could try.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] kmartburrito:
Hi harry, I've unfortunately not had this work quite yet, I get a force close from the system settings this app is trying to access. My guess is that the kernel isn't patched for it. We might have to request this in future CDMA Hero roms. Thanks!
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] redram38:
I got it for free as well.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] aeroterp:
I can confirm that the USB tether using the command line works for me. I'm getting 1.28Mb/s down and 0.48Mb/s up.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] CapnBry:
Yeah I've just tried a ton of different options to see what causes the error 67. The only way I can get the error 67 every time is if the phone does not have a EVDO connection when starting sharing. If you look in the notification area and do not see the "Ev(arrows)" icon, you'll always get error 67. If the Ev is present (even if grayed) it works for me every time.

What does this mean?

-- If your WiFi is on when trying to start connetion sharing: Error 67

-- If you've just disabled WiFi and the phone still hasn't reestablished connection: Error 67

-- If you have "Always on mobile data" off, and it has been a while since something needed the connection: Error 67

Basically, anything that causes the phone to renegotiate the connection causes Error 67. Using the Wireless Settings "Mobile network sharing" disconnects network access before performing the steps I do in the shell.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] kmartburrito:
After installing this app, I also now get the FC any time I run the second command from the command line for tethering. Specifically this one:

echo 4 > /sys/devices/platform/msm_hsusb/usb_function_switch

so now nothing works :/

I'm going to remove the Wired Tether app and see if it goes back to normal.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] harry_m:
No, can't be. The app is doing nothing evil.

What it does is ... "echo 1 > /sys/devices/virtual/net/usb0/enable" which seems to be fine on kernel with zinx patches but not on a hero.

Anyway ... do a reboot. The app is not causing the problems you have!
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] coldsweat:
I know this is the USB Tether thread but if anyone cares, there is a working Wireless Tether for the stock Sprint ROM, the only requirement is root.

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] kmartburrito:
Yeah, I've tried this method too. The problem with it is that it is very much a game of chance. I tried once for I think 64 times in a row before it actually connected. Another time, it did right away.

Since we've now rooted the phone, we should be able to get an app together that accomplishes this.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] washjayb:
I use tethering as the secondary connection in my home. When someone else is online I use tether. thus far proxoid is the only app that worked reliably. Its limed in that i have not been able to use utorrent but i can surf. I currently using FreshRom .4. Ive also used Modaco. I have not been able to use wifitether more than once on either and have never been able to tether with usb outside of proxoid. I will be glad when a solution is found.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] superstudinor:

[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] ericm115:
Anyone figure out the whole error 67 problem? id love to use this
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] kmartburrito:
At this point, you have a few options-

1)PDANet Free - blocks HTTPS and UDP, but HTTP is ok

2)EasyTether Free - Same as PDANet, only on 32bit windows from Vista onward

3)Try the command I mention in this thread, which I've had work before, although somewhat spotty.

4)Wait for an Android 2.1 ROM where it is enabled natively.

Personally, I'm waiting for the latter.
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] dmc971989:
what about getting the wired tether app to work? its from the same developers as wireless tether but i havent been able to get it working yet... from what I gather it is actually based of the MNS capabilites of the Hero
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] kmartburrito:
The problem with that app is that it runs a different command than what I've been able to get working with the Hero, and it assumes specific things written into the kernel I believe, one based on a Cyanogen ROM. I'm going to see how hard it is to get an app pass a command line argument, and if it's not too hard, maybe I'll write one for us in the interim. No promises though!
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] dmc971989:
I see... thanks for all your efforts in advance man :)
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] Kcarpenter:
I don't think its hard, i believe I remember seeing a library for system stuff. Should be similar to other system libs where you can pass in a system command line string argument and run it.

Is the wired tether app open source? maybe it would be as easy as taking their code and changing the command line that is passed?
[Hero CDMA Themes and Apps] kmartburrito:
It's actually proving to be somewhat challenging :( but not impossible.

I found some folks using the Runtime.exec("su") style of code, which is a system library, but I'm having some struggles passing the commands to it. I got it to request root privs, but I got failures on the second command, so I'm going to keep messing with it.

As for the wired tether app, yes it is open source, and much more complex than I thought it would be. I didn't spend too much time looking at it, but it seemed that the commands were built throughout the project, rather than just input in one line. Maybe I missed it though, I'll check that too. Feel free to look also, it's always good to have a second set of eyes ;)

wireless tethering with adhoc networks fix

I know you're interested in USB tethering, but in case you want to get your wireless tethering working (in spite of your work blocking adhoc connections) you might try what I did. On your laptop, edit the temp file located in C:\Windows\wlansvc\Policies\. Mine happened to be called PolC091.tmp, but will probably be different for you. The file is an XML file and the pertinent section you're looking for is under the <networkFilter> section and will look like this: <denyAllIBSS>true</denyAllIBSS>. Simply delete this entry, save the file, and reboot your laptop. Wireless tethering should then work. I have admin rights on my laptop and am running Windows 7 Enterprise, so your mileage may vary. Also, you may want to remember the file location as I think the temp file may be periodically overwritten. Good Luck!

[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] Dirk:
Search for 'transparent curtain 2.1' and 'Lucarps transparent slider' You'll find plenty.

Alternatively try MaxTTM, an app that will do what you want. The curtains you will able to remove without issue and the slider by way of an add-in component.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps] player911:
Do you mean the transparent taskbar and softkey bar? Transparent taskbar and softkey bar are only transparent with the Titanium homescreen and start menu (if Titanium is the active homescreen).

Using Manila (seems you are doing) will cause the bar to appear be solid. Now you can do a trick where you use your background as the images for the taskbar/softkey bar... and make them slightly darker. They'll still be solid but have the matching background image on them to appear transparent.

Using the Manila trick will cause the images to be visible in ALL apps; where the default Titanium will switch back and forth from solid to transparent depending on the app.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Mr. Nefarious:
Alright guys, I'm a relatively new android user owning the MT3G since the day it came out. As it stands, I'm pretty confused with google's branding and partnership with my device. As it stands, even though I have a "with google" device, I don't receive updates for their operating system first, they only go to the highest bidder or newest tech despite the fact that my phone is less than 3 months old. I don't receive any special updates other than the updates everyone else gets as well. All of the applications "with google" are available free from the market. My "with google" version has 100+mb less ram than the normal HTC Magic. HTC offers their customers the Sense UI. Motorola entices customers with Blur. Google customers get... nothing. For the life of me, I cannot figure out why any customer after doing some research, would want to have a "google experience" phone. So far, my personal experience has been: With Google = **** you.

To me it just seems like an expensive name drop and a lubeless fist to their customers, or am I just completely missing all the amazing features of my google device?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] sim-value:
you (should) get OTA updates ... devices which dont have the "with Google" dont and need to wipe for every update (and there is no 1.6 for HTC magic ...)
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] st0kes:
Btw the Verizon Hero has the 'with google' branding and it has Sense UI, so I'm not sure that 'with google' really means anything on Android phones. It certainly does not make them exclusive in any way.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DMaverick50:
Its not google that youre pissed at its "Teen-Mobile". They had the first Android (g1) over a year ago. It took them an entire year to release the MT3G, that means it took them an entire year to add a small amount of internal memory, and NO ram. thats the only improvement they could manage.

I feel your pain, its pretty embarrassing to be with a company who's third and "best" Android, the culmination of over a year of work is still literally worse, according to hardware and overall capability than ANY of their competitor's Android phones.

Im pretty sure they cut the ram by a third because they knew that they had the Cliq coming out after the MT3G, and it has 256mb ram so if they didnt screw the MT3G then the Cliq wouldnt have much to make it an improvement. I not sure what TMO's angle is but it definitely isnt consumer friendly
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Kush.Kush™:
i beg to differ i have 1.6 on mytouch aka HTC magic
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Anartic:
The "with Google" has nothing to do with if you get OTA updates or not. OTA updates depend on the carrier. Some Sprint Heros have the "with Google" branding, but it will not receive OTA updates, instead they have to update it through computer because Sprint doesn't send OTA updates, so I've heard.

Actually, the mytouch and htc magic are different, that's why we have 32a and 32b roms and not to be hurtful or anything but he did say the devices that don't have the "with Google " dont get ota updates and last time I checked, the mytouch has it and the HTC Magic doesn't.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] djungelmums:
Im not concerned about the absence of sense ui or motoblur, because i like the vanilla android the most.

Im more concerned, as you are, about the lack of updates for android. It's really weird that they cant come up with some sort of standard making it possible to update an androidphone like magic to 2.0. Noone knows if 2.0 will come to magic. Thats what concerns me.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Anartic:
If anything, 2.0 should come to the magic because it has enough space. Phones with custom UIs will have to wait, since the UIs will also need to be updated.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Kush.Kush™:
well i have the "htc magic/mytouch 32B" and im sure i have it on there but we both right lol
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] st0kes:
I don't understand why there is so much discussion on whether the Magic will get Android 2.0. It is only 6 months old in Europe, and even younger than that in the states. I thought the whole idea of Android was it was designed to be an upgradeble OS. Seems obvious to me that it will get the 2.0 upgrade - and 2.5 and 3.0 until the hardware is no longer capable. HTC would not abandon a device that has been out less than a year.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Anartic:
I think people are just nervous that since the G1 might not get the update, even though it's less only a little over a year old, the MT3G/Magic will stop getting updates soon.

Many of the newer ROMs come with that keyboard issue.

As an SPB shell user, you maybe will prefer a "pure" ROM without Manila.

I have flashed quite a lot of different ROMs so far, and imho, I would confirm

what you mention: So far, there is no 6.5 ROM which would meet the speed

and stability of the good 6.1 ROMs - but then again, this is mostly the case

for Manila ROMs in my own case.

Like the prior post, I would suggest x10 and pajaro.
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] djridu:
Vielen Dank für die Antworten.

Eure Vorschläge beziehen sich nur auf Wm 6.5 Roms? - Sind diese nun von der Geschwindigkeit mit den 6.1 vergleichbar? - Oder überwiegen mitlerweile die Vorteile der "neuen roms"?

Danke im Voraus!
[XPERIA X1 ROM Development] tictac0566:
Kurz zusammengefasst, meine persönliche Meinung:

6.5er ROMs sind das, was die Köche hier anbieten - 6.1 scheint Schnee von gestern. Dazu kommt, dass die wohl grosse Mehrheit hier im Forum die Manila ROMs anscheinend bevorzugt - wie ich persönlich auch. Ausserdem gibt es leider nur sehr wenige ROMs in deutscher Sprache.

Von der Geschwindigkeit her sind die 6.5er ROMs machmal deutlich, manchmal kaum spürbar langsamer als 6.1er, was aber sehr oft mit Manila zu tun hat. Die "nackte" WinMo Funktionalität kann aber, je nach Koch, auch schon mal eher stottern.

In englischer Sprache gibt es durchaus noch superschnelle "nackte" 6.1er ROMs für das X1, die allen anderen ROMs hier nach wie vor die Stange halten können, wenn es um Geschwindigkeit geht.

Mit den beiden, die ich erwähnt habe, hatte ich allerdings in dieser Hinsicht keinerlei Probleme, da gefiel mir eher die jeweilige Manila Version nicht.
