HTC Eris :: Phone Randomly Go Completely Silent With 2.1 / WiFi Tethering

Mar 21, 2010

Hey everyone, I have a couple of simple questions regarding root. I have never rooted a phone before but I'm sure I can figure it out. I don't need to do anything fancy with my phone but Wifi tethering sounds like it would be worth taking the plunge. I have been following the bugs and fixes thread about the 2.1 leak and the only think that initially kept me from installing the leak was everyone saying that the phone would randomly go completely silent. Does this also happen with the newest root ROM? Also, just to make sure I know what exactly what WiFi tethering is, will I be able to tether my WiFi if I get rooted and set up WiFi tethering?

HTC Droid Eris :: WiFi Tethering Kills Connection Constantly

May 6, 2010

I have a rooted 2.1, it's been working perfectly since I rooted and updated and all.I love how fast and responsive everything is now.BUT one of the main reasons I rooted was so that I could take advantage of the wifi tethering.It works sometimes.sometimes great.BUT if I try to go to facebook.it'll work well sometimes, then others it won't even load the page.then eventually just kills my connection. gmail seems to have the same reaction.works sometimes, other times, nothing. i dont seem to have much of a problem surfing other sites.HOWEVER if i try to download anything over like 4MB big...my connection just gets killed all together, and nothing works. a friend of mine sent me his bands new demos...the zip file is like 35MB.it only gets a little ways before just dropping down to 0.0kbs and then it just sits there, not loading crap. I can re start the connection, and it will start downloading again, but after about 30 or 40 seconds.the connection gets killed again. Same goes for a torrent...if I try to download a torrent, it'll work and get pretty fast, up to 190kbs.but after just under a minute, connection killed. why is this? does verizon kill data connections that come in to fast or something? i have a friend who tethers with at&t with his iphone, he got the demos downloaded in like 12 min on his iphone tethering app. do i need to do some tweaking to my phone so I can download? im not trying to go crazy, but I'd like to atleast be able to get large attachments and such.

Steps:
1. Boot phone into Recovery by holding Volume Up + Power (End Button).
2. Wipe phone of all data.
3. Flash to the 0_3 rom, install Astro File Manager from the Market
4. Download and install file from below and place into phones SD card.
5. Install from Astro by opening it in App Manger, Open up application and enjoy!

What is better for tethering easytether or pdanet? I am looking at maybe buying one for when I travel and would like to see which one everyone likes, I am leaning towards easytether because it is cheaper.

General :: Tethering Setup - No Access To Network

May 21, 2013

I have a problem ( but i think that's more my setup problem).

My phone: i9100g
Rom tested: CM10, SlimBean v5

Neither wifi/usb tethering are working, when I connect my phone to pc it tells me "no access to network".

I'm having same problem with different roms,so i think that i should change my settings,and it's not a bug of the rom. My default APN at "APN Type" was "default,supl". i Have changed to "default,supl,dun" but nothing,tethering doesn't work.

HTC Droid Eris :: Upgrading To 2.1 Tutorial

Mar 7, 2010

UPDATE: 06/14/10
I'm back on the forums, FINALLY! I finally got fed-up with dealing with Verizon and their rediculas prices. I had 2 phones on my 700 Family Share plan and it was nearly $160 with NO extra features. Just phone. Not internet, no texts, basic NON3G phone.. Looked into other carrirers and found Sprint... What is that? It's HUGE!... It's the EVO 4G. I'M THERE! I am spending the same each month as I was with verizon, with a Smartphone plan. I love it!

Fallow me on the HTC EVO 4G section! http://androidforums.com/htc-evo-4g/

IMPORTANT UPDATE: 04/03/10
I had to make a choice between my Droid Eris and purchasing a vehicle for the future. Of course, the vehicle won; so I no longer have the Eris *pout*. I hope everyone has fun with the future updates and conversations regarding the Eris and 2.x updates. I thank everyone that has helped me out and the 50+ who thanked for this Thread.

HTC Eris :: Detailed Leak Root Tutorial

Jul 17, 2010

MAC/LINUX ROOT TUTORIAL

Many people have said that they are having difficulties understanding the root process, so I typed up a complete tutorial exactly the way I rooted my phone. All credit goes to wag3slav3 over at XDA, Root for ERIS LEAKERS! - xda-developers, I just expanded on the instructions

1.Download the Android SDK from here: Android SDK | Android Developers

2.Download hack-v4.zip from here: Multiupload.com - upload your files to multiple file hosting sites!

3.When the hack-v4.zip is done downloading put the files of the folder into the tools folder of the already extracted android sdk. The tools folder can be found at /where ever you put the sdk/android-sdk-86_mac/tools.

4.Download a custom ROM, I recommend KaosFroyo, but you can choose whatever one you want. Place the .zip file on the root of the SD Card (ie. Not in a folder). PS. If your mac automatically decompresses the .zip, you can find the original .zip file in the trash. For this plug your phone into the computer, pull down the notification bar at the top of the screen on your phone and tap the USB connection notification, then tap Mount as Disk Drive. Copy the .zip onto the phone.
LIST OF ROMS: Known Droid Eris Roms, Patches and Hacks - UPDATED 05-11-2010 - xda-developers

5.To change directories to sdk/tools folder:
1.Open a new terminal window and type cd [space]
2.Find the android sdk in a finder window
3.Drag the folder that says tools to the terminal window and press [ENTER]
4.There now should be the word "tools" in front of the computer name/your name in terminal.

6. On your phone go in to Applications->Development->USB Debugging and make sure it is checked. Plug your phone into your computer, select "charge only" not Disk Drive mode

7. To test if your ADB is working run " ./adb devices " . If you get an alphanumeric code that starts with HTXXXXXXXXXX and says device then you are all set.

8. Once your phone is plugged in run " sh runinlinuxfromtools.sh "
It takes a while to load, but you should be in Amon's recovery after its done. If you don't see Amon's recovery than try step 9.

9. If you get "adb: command not found, try " sh runinlinuxadb.sh "

10. Your phone will now boot into recovery. From there select "Backup/Restore" > and NAND Backup. Let it load, it takes a minute or two, then return back to main menu. Then select "Wipe" > choose Wide data/factory reset. Return to menu and select "Flash zip from sdcard" > find your .zip file that you downloaded (the ROM). It should have the name of the ROM somewhere in the zip name. Let it do its thing, then select reboot option.

11. Congrats, you have successfully rooted your phone! If your ROM does not already include "SuperUser.apk", download and install the app as soon as possible.

12. [OPTIONAL] If you want to change the boot loader to the engineering bootloader (ie. S-OFF) then follow these instructions How To Install Engineering bootloader FOR LEAK ROOTERS - xda-developers
But I have found a change that will make this much more hassle-free. On the last step when you see you have successfully changed the HBOOT, do a battery pull, and start the phone back up again. You do not have to do those commands for the final step. Then complete the root instructions above and you will have a changed boot-loader and root.

ANY AND ALL QUESTIONS WILL BE ANSWERED!

Windows ROOT TUTORIAL --

1. Download Android SDK from here:Android SDK | Android Developers Follow the instructions (1-11) that were written by GrdLock in order to properly install the SDK package in Windows. Click the link and scroll down to A. Pre-requisite: Android SDK: http://androidforums.com/all-things-root-eris/53963-guide-stock-1-5-latest-root-2-1-a.html

2. Download and Install HTC Sync from here: [url]

3. Download hack-v4.zip from here: Multiupload.com - upload your files to multiple file hosting sites!

4. Unzip the hack-v4.zip is into the tools folder of the already installed android sdk folder. The tools folder can be found at /where ever you put the sdk folder/android-sdk-windows/tools.

5. Download a custom ROM from this forum or one of the other popular Android forums (see the link below). Do not upzip the ROM file. Instead, place the .zip file on the root of the SD Card (ie. Not in a folder). To do this, plug your phone into the computer, pull down the notification bar at the top of the screen on your phone, and tap the USB connection notification, then tap Mount as Disk Drive. Copy the .zip onto the phone.
LIST OF ROMS: Known Droid Eris Roms, Patches and Hacks - UPDATED 05-11-2010 - xda-developers (I hope to be able to update this soon).

6. To open a command window in the tools directory:
[VISTA and WIN7] Navigate to your Android-sdk-Windows folder and open the Tools folder. Find a blank spot in the window and hold down the shift key + right mouse click. Choose the option, "Open Command Window Here."
[XP] Click Start>Run and type "cmd". This will bring up a command window and from there type " cd C:android-sdk-windows ools "

7. On your phone go in to Applications->Development->USB Debugging and make sure it is checked. Plug your phone into your computer and select "Charge Only" (not Disk Drive mode).

8. To test if your ADB is working type "adb devices " and hit enter . If you get an alphanumeric code that starts with HTXXXXXXXXXX and says device then you are all set.

9. With your phone still plugged in type "runindos.bat" (at the end of the string in the command window on your PC) and hit Enter
Your phone will reboot, sit a while, and then reboot again into Amon's recovery.

10. In Recovery, select "Backup/Restore" > and NAND Backup. Let it load, it takes a minute or two, then return back to main menu.

11. Select "Wipe" > choose Wipe data/factory reset. Return to menu and select "Flash zip from sdcard" > find your .zip file that you downloaded (the ROM). It should have the name of the ROM somewhere in the zip name. Let it do its thing, then select reboot option.

12. Congrats, you have successfully rooted your phone!
--Thanks to v941726. Just needed to clean up some of his steps to be more readable by beginners. Much of what Surgeon0214 wrote could be copied and pasted with a few words changed into Windows language.

FLASHING CUSTOM ROM's (Once Root is gained)
In order to flash a new ROM after obtaining root you simply:
1. Find and download the ROM that you want to use.

2. Mount your PC and copy the .zip file over to your SD card like you did for root.

3. Turn off your phone and power it back up while holding down the up volume key.

4. After booting into Recovery, go to Wipe and wipe factory data along with Dalvik Cache.

5. Back out of the Wipe menu and go to Install from SD. Your ROM will be there. Hit install and it will put the new ROM that you want, on your phone.

6. Reboot and you will see a boot animation screen for several minutes before it loads your new ROM.

7. Repeat this procedure with a Nand Backup each time you get a new ROM set up.

HTC EVO 4G :: Wifi Tethering Not Connecting

Nov 14, 2010

I used to have a samsung moment that was rooted and i used the samsung moment wifi tethering program. I just got the HTC Evo 4G yesterday and rooted it using the Unrevoked method (not sure if there is another). I then downloaded the Wireless Tether for root users. For some reason i cant get anthing to recognize it. I've tried looking for the signal with my ipod and laptop but nothing! What setting needs to be changed? I have tried to find this issue on other posts, but nothing.

HTC EVO 4G :: USB Tethering Works With WiFi

Jul 30, 2010

While USB tethering over 3G/4G networks doesn't work unless you pay for the $30/mo hotspot feature (which I still cannot get Sprint to admit is a stupid name since I don't want a hotspot, only tethering, but I digress), you can tether and use the phone's WiFi connection.

Why would you want to? Well, I have a laptop that requires a USB dongle and now I have one less thing to carry. OK, not the best reason, but I found it interesting.

HTC EVO 4G :: WiFi Tethering Settings / Instructions

Jun 7, 2010

**UPDATED**
1. On your phone go to Settings > Applications > Development > and enable USB debugging.
2. Go to unrevoked.com on your HTC EVO web browser and download it and install it.
3. Run the Revoked program and click on Start. You should get a message that says, "successfully rooted"
4. Go to http://bit.ly/c2oonC and download and install the wireless_tether_2_0_2.apk with your HTC EVO web browser.
5. Run Wireless WiFi Tether (When a box pops up, click on ALLOW)

Notes:
- When you restart the phone, you have to root it again to run Wireless tether.
- Sprint will not bill you anything extra, don't worry. Droid, NexusOne users have been doing this for a while with no issues.
- You do not need to have the "$29.95" tethering plan with Sprint.
- WiFi signal is not strong, so your device had to be near by.
- WiFi tethering uses up alot of battery life. About 1% per minute or two (thats constant connection loading webpage/video streaming). WiFi tethering also worked with my iPad.

Motorola Droid X :: AP WiFi Tethering Possible Yet?

Aug 16, 2010

Just upgraded from DInc to X this week. Rooted - all that fun stuff. Had AP tethering on DInc, I'm still getting adHoc with X even with version 2.0.5-pre 7. Is anyone else getting AP tethering or do we need to wait for the froyo kernal? I had originally thought any phone with the VZW wifi hotspot app had AP tethering capabilities in its kernal already.

HTC EVO 4G :: Employee Rooting / Wifi Tethering?

Nov 23, 2010

I hate to start a new thread but I searched the forum for an answer with no success. I'M a SWAC customer and my fiance is my sponsor. She is concerned that if I root my Evo and get free Wifi tethering she will possibly get fired if Sprint notices the larger amount of data usage. Has anyone ever heard of a Sprint employee getting fired over rooting their phone? I want to root but not at the expense of getting my fiance fired.

HTC EVO 4G :: WiFi Tethering - Slow Speed

Jul 15, 2010

So I just rooted my phone yesterday with the new unrevoked 3 and mainly for the purpose of getting the WiFi tethering app back. Yes, it worked, but man has it been a sad day. I've been reading posts of people having great speeds and here I am trying to enjoy my 0.4 kbps down and 0.3 kbps up speeds, but it sure is hard when other devices can't even use the connection because it's so insanely low. I'm just wondering if anyone else is having this problem?

Is it because of the new root? Is it because of my phone? I used to have okay speeds before with just having a rooted phone via unrevoked 1. I don't know if it's my data network either because it still loads sites pretty well and downloads just fine. It's just the WiFi tethering that is horrible. I tried playing around with the settings (LAN, channels, etc.,) and to no avail, as well as moving around the house, so now I'm stumped.

And if so, what are my options for doing it for free with-out root? I don't ever use it nor do I really need it but I can foresee in the future using it some random day.
