What are you guys using to tether your Evo? What is the best/fastest option out there?I am about 15 miles from 4g coverage here in Boston. I keep finding reasons to travel into town to use 4g!.Does anyone know the rate at which they are putting up 4g towers? Monthly, yearly?

If we do indeed get 2.1 will tethering still be and option?
View 3 Replies View RelatedMy first droid died recently (RIP), and thankfully the insurance did have droid 1's to replace it (refurb). My original had the raised keyboard, this one doesn't. Otherwise seems the same--except: under Settings-->Wifi and Networks is a tab called "Tethering." So I plugged it into my computer, turned on USB Tether, and yet I couldn't seem to get internet from the phone's data service. Is this a weird, non-working foyo feature?
View 8 Replies View RelatedUsed PdaNet in the past under the free trial without much problem, was told not to upgrade to avoid the blocking of https and to do backup with astro to save that feature.. switched to a different phone for awhile and just came back to the eris still had pdanet installed but had removed from pc and had to reinstall there.. I can log into alot of site with user/pass but not yahoo or ebay (the two I need most) When I re-installed on pc it also reinstalled on phone. Did this mess things up? WHen I go into astro the only options now are to uninstall or browse file.. Is there any way to get back to where I was? Is USB tethering an option with a rooted phone?
View 5 Replies View Related1. I don't have the bluetooth tethering option? It used to be there with my old S3 (now I have S4 and Rogers Note II) - see screenshot attached.
2. How can I have more space of preview of conversation? Is there any ROM that actually reduces the vertical space needed to type in the message (to 1 line)? The light grey border and 2 line of typing area is just waste of space (iPhone has this right!)
See attachment.
Is this possible? The only way I could see it working is if the "Install other OS" option was still on the ps3 and then just installing pdanet onto it but is there anyway to do that without installing a different operating system?

Something like tethering but the other way around, laptop to phone instead of phone to laptop?
View 3 Replies View RelatedHas anyone tried tethering via USB in Linux? When I plug my phone in and choose internet sharing and select done the 3G connection immediately disappears and it tells me my sprint PCS vision user name/password is not correct even though 3G works fine on my phone. I'm given to understand it should just immediately connect without any configuration in Ubuntu 10.04. Anyone else have any input?

View 7 Replies View RelatedSo I just canceled my internet at my house after a frustrating experience with the cable company... so now I'm exclusively relying on the Evo for internet. My question is, is there any way to tether at 4g speeds? Either wired or wireless? I think I've read that the wireless tether app has not really been coded for 4g so the speeds do not come even close to typical 4g speeds. I also would rather avoid pdanet and easy tether because I don't want to pay in order to get full access. I've done some research in the matter but still have things kinda muddy in my mind.
View 17 Replies View RelatedI know Sprint's hotspot feature is to use the EVO "Wirelessly" with up to 8 diff. devices and that is what the $30 charge is for if you want to use that feature.It's my understanding that "Tethering" is a different thing where u directly connect your EVO to a laptop and use the "Internet Sharing" mode that way with only that device. I don't pay the extra $30 so i dont have hotspot for my EVO but I am able to Tether my phone to my laptop. Ive read that tethering is not allowed on the sprint network without purchasing the Hotspot feature and i can have my contract terminated if i continue to use tethering with my EVO. IS THAT TRUE? Is the tethering feature with the EVO at this point, just a feature that has not been disabled or patched yet or is it infact supported by sprint without needing to buy the Sprint Hotspot feature?????? And if it is freely available is there a cap to how much data i can use while tethering? cause you know, i do pay the damn """ $10 premium charge""" for each EVO on my account..
View 38 Replies View RelatedI am having trouble tethering my phone to my computer via pdaNet and bluetooth (USB works fine). I've seen several threads and tried a lot of things, but nothing seems to solve my problem. I have tried under Mac OS X and Win XP...
Under Mac OS X, it detects my phone and pairs successfully. It gets to the point where it says "Select the services you want to use with your mobile phone" and I check "Access the Internet with your phone's data connection." When I hit continue, it say "Configuring services..." forever, and it never connects.
Under Win XP (same machine), in my Network Settings, I tried to search for my phone and it doesn't find my device. Alternatively, if I go to Control Panel -> Bluetooth, it will pair. However I then go to Properties, Services and check "Dial-Up Networking", hit OK, and it says "The parameter is incorrect"
So basically the problem is that although my phone and computer can see each other via bluetooth, the DUN service from my phone isn't recognized by my computer. I have tried this with another computer as well, with no luck. Is there a setting on my phone that I need to change in order to get this working?
I have an htc evo I got on June 20th. I've never accepted any of the updates. The phone isn't rooted. I'm using Ubuntu 10.04. How do I use my phone to connect my linux laptop or pc to the internet? I'm looking for the simplest way that doesn't require more fees. Inspite of being a linux user I'm not exceptionally savvy so a step by step would help me out a lot.

As the HTC Sync software controls the PC end of the tether connection, and it's not available on the Mac, this is annoying.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI just got my EVO and so far, I love it. I have a question about Tethering. It says that Sprint will charge $30/month for using this feature, yet I see it available in the system settings. So if I turn it on, i'll start getting charged, or will it simply not work? (either wired or wireless).
