full tethering TCP/IP, VPN,...

I have seen a new app, that is not yet available for Android. There is an alpha version for Android , given to some testing people, including me. Till now the alpha only supports usb but Wifi and Bluetooth will follow.
I will report...
PDAnet has been one of the most popular software for Windows Mobile phones and Palm OS phones. It is now ported to the iPhone! The latest version turns your iPhone into a true WiFi router for your computer (MAC or PC), and allows your laptop to go online wirelessly through the 3G network on the iPhone. New! Version 1.50 adds USB support for Windows users.
While there has been quite a few other third party software (iPhoneModem, NetShare etc. and also the built-in OpenSSH) that tether your iPhone through a junky SOCKS proxy solution. PdaNet, on the other hand, is miles ahead! This version is called "PdaNet WiFi Router", it literally is. All you need to do is simply to create an ad-hoc WiFi network on the computer and connect your iPhone to it (instructions). Your computer then goes online automatically. There is no need to specify IP (or any other) settings on either end.
Full list of PdaNet benefits:
* You will get FULL Internet access on the computer! (Instead of only applications that support Socks proxy.) In technical terms, all applications make direct TCP/IP connections to the server. Since there is no proxy involved, that also means less problems and less delays.
* VPN connections are supported on the computer.
* You don't need to configure anything on the computer end whenever you connect PdaNet. No proxy settings, no extra software installation, no messing with static IP assignment, no switching settings back and forth when going back to your home's WiFi router.
* Yes it will connect at 3G speed if your phone has the coverage.Feedback from our users shows pretty fast speed even for the 2G version.
* Supports PC, MAC, Linux or anything (include other PDA/phones) that connects to a WiFi router.
* PdaNet runs in the background so you can still use other iPhone features when PdaNet is connected. But when you are done with them, go back to PdaNet to prevent the phone from entering idle and drops your connection.
* PdaNet has a built-in "insomnia" feature so you can turn off the phone when PdaNet is in the foreground and it won't drop your active connection. This will conserve battery.
* It is recommended that you charge the phone at the same time while using PdaNet because both WiFi and 3G will be put on full speed, both consume a lot of juice.

Hook a brother up you tease!!! Just kidding, I think. Unless you really wanna hook me up!
You got any idea of a release date?

Sounds great thanks for the tip, hopefully it will come soon sure would make tethering easy !

till now it looks like installing and there you go. no telnet - su -....

This is exactly the app I've been waiting for. No root wireless wifi tethering. Please bring more good news and keep us updated with the findings

I had been given a testing version in December as well, but unfortunately it's Windows-only at this point. =/

June Fabrics PDANET for G1
Hi,
I just received an invite from June-Fabrics last night for their alpha testing. I am able to access the internet through a USB Based connection using their software.
It is pretty ugly right now. but it works.
It appears that the connecitons are possibly throttled a little bit for testing purposes as I am able to browse pages as expected, but there are no images or graphics being displayed.
As this is my first connection, I am going to perform some additional tests and I will write my updates as I come across them.
Have a good day

please
OMG HURRY!!!!!!!!!!! I just wanna use my phone the way it should which is ocassionally to tether it to my Laptop!

This tether application rocks. It also has bluetooth. I am getting around 700.

bummer
im currently leaving my phne stock as i see no benefit to tohaving root acess. Ill wait for an opensource app

AndroidActivity's Wi-Fi and Bluetooth tethers work wonderfully.

[Q] Tethering

Has anyone used any tethering apps successfully? I downloaded Wifi Tethering for Root and have not been able to connect. Foxfi will not work on my current phone. Is there any way to change settings in the phones system folder to take advantage of it's built in hotspot capabilities. Well without big red knowing about it.

Do you want to use the Kindle Fire 2 as a WiFi Hot Spot or Access Point? When you say Tether, do you want
to connect your phone to your computer through USB, this is called Tethering. When you use the phone as
a WiFi connection, this is called a Hot Spot or Access Point. What type of phone would you like to use as a Hot
Spot? There is a solid app called WiFi HotSpot / WiFi Tether. The for USB Tethering, there is WiFi HotSpot &
USB Tether Lite. Respond with a little more details.

I have a grandfathered unlimited data package through Verizon and I want to be able to use my phone to supply the wifi if I am not close to a public wifi. I ran wifi analyzer and have a strong signal from my phone but it is an ad hoc signal which I understand the K f doesn't recognize.

Now I understand! Yes, Ad Hoc is not supported by many devices. Change the settings from Ad Hoc
to Infrastructure in the WiFi Application. This will be in the Options or Settings of the WiFi Tethering
Application.

Ok, getting closer to something working. I downloaded Wifi Tether for Root and it has a bunch of device selections and different option but something is still not quite right. With generic ICS selected and startup method selected Netd (master) the KF recognizes the signal as infrastructure mode and will allow me to connect but when I try to access the web all I get is a white screen that never loads. Why?

I have answered my own question. I tried another app called Open Garden Wifi Tether and it works like a champ. I have it set on generic ICS and setup method as Netd (master). So far everything is working great. Before anyone thinks bad of tethering against the will of the big red V, I have a plan with 5 lines and 3 data packages (@$90/month) and I'll be danged if I am going to give them any more since I have unlimited data.

I have no problem with Tethering. I believe that we pay enough in Service Fees and as long as
you are not sharing the connection with 5 neighbors with the motivation to make money, there
is no problem with personal use. I am happy to hear that you were able to make it work. Good
job Clarke33!

No, the only thing I tether from my phone is my KF. I have actually been also playing with a hotspot toggle and using the phone's native hotspot. So far this has also worked and has not activated the screen from Verizon saying I need to pay an additional amount.

T-Mobile Tethering Update/Fix

Hi everyone, recently I been seeing from other threads and sections other than Nexus 5 about members having a hard time tethering their data to computers, video game consoles, tablets, etc. I have been tethering my phone to my PS3 ever since we were able to use 4G internet on Nexus 4's and T-Mobile stepping their game up.
I have been researching and trying out various apps to use my tethering to its full extent(mind you, I have the truly unlimited plan ever since it came out, with 500mb sharing data). Likewise, whether you abuse this glorious internet that T-Mobile has to offer, or have no other ISP other than T-Mobile, I'll share you my settings for making the tethering work.
Update: as of March(ish)/April(ish), I've noticed that tethering is a PAIN in the butt. However, I was able to still get tethering to work, and I hope this all applies to you all (not just the truly unlimited plans, but also prepaid and limited GB plans). There is but one problem I have experienced, and I'm not SURE if it's T-Mobile getting REALLY smart or my phone is in the brink of failing me, but I get disconnected 15 minutes later after connecting my phone to PS3 to play online (BO2). Back then, I would never have this problem. What's worse is my data would actually stall and not connect yet I'm still seeing full signal. Only fix is turning on airplane mode and off. Anyways, enough with the blabbering.
Note:I know some of these steps is not really necessary for me since I have truly unlimited, but I like to take pre cautions. YOU MUST HAVE ROOT
First: Download SQ Lite Editor on your phone (if you have one for your computer, by means go ahead). Locate the settings.db by going to data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db. Once you find it, go to global and insert a new entry "tether_dun_required" with the value "0". Once done, save and close. If you're using a computer, well, you should also know how that works.
Second: Download build prop editor on the Play Store. Add a new entry by pressing the pencil icon on the bottom that says "net.tethering.noprovisioning=true". Reboot phone.
Third: Head over to your APN and DELETE EVERYTHING. Add a new APN named T-Mobile GPRS(you can name it whatever you want), with the APN:"fast.t-mobile.com". MMSC:http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
MMS Port:80
MMC:310
MNC:260
APN Type:default,MMS,dun
APN Protocol and Roaming Protocol both IPV4.
Save.
Now here's the app's I use.
Clockworkmod Tether: For computers. Since I have a desktop, this is the best USB tether connection IMO. Download the app on the store and download the drivers on your PC/Laptop and voila, insta connect. Now in terms of user agent switcher, I would download fiddle2 on your computer. This program monitors all IP's going thru. Open up fiddler, go to "Rules," "User-Agents," and select "Custom..." A window will pop up. Leave this blank and click okay. Now, all of the network traffic from that computer with have its user-agent string modified to "User-Agent:[blank]" Test this out on any browser on your computer and you should not be redirected to the upsell page.http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2493675 if you need more information. But on all honesty, just find a user agent switch on Chrome extensions and choose IE7. I been using that for years with no problem.
WiFi Tether Router: By far my favorite tethering app (shout out to the creator Fabio) for playing my ps3. I have tried this on my friends ps4 and it works. I also used this app to share my data to other peoples cellphones and laptops. If you don't have $2.50 to spare then idk what to say....anyways here's the setup.
WiFi Name:whatever you want.
Password: whatever
Channel:0
Interface: wlan0
Method: auto
Enable DMZ(for gaming)
On DCHP Setting: click "get default provider DNS" and then check mark DNS redirect and save config.
On advance WiFi setting please make sure to disable scanning always available. Now fire it up and see if all goes well. If you want source of where I got this setting, head on over to https://sites.google.com/site/wifitetherrouter/home/device-configuration
I hope these settings will help you guys. I hope someone else had the same problem with me randomly disconnecting and hopefully found a fix. As for T-Mobile, they have gotten smart about tethering. Hopefully they won't become another Verizon or AT&T. But in reality, please, if you're gonna download big files or movies, use your home internet. If you have truly unlimited, then use your phone to download them. Why do you have to tether to a computer to download torrents and whatever when your phone can do that? It's called smartphone for a reason. Wanna stream a movie? Get slimport or a Chromecast and hook it on the TV. Use the hotspot for small things and personal things such as home works, projects, research, etc.
Let me know if you have any other questions.

Don't be an A-Hole... There is a reason why no carrier provides Unmetered/Unlimited tethering.
Data usage from a computer is almost 5X more than a smart phone, as on a full PC everything isn't compressed while on on a smartphone data usage is much smaller.
Doing this will only further increase congestion from all data hogs like you.
See: http://www.tmonews.com/2014/08/clea...ing-data-misuse-is-not-widespread-throttling/
"A very small number of our customers are misusing their Simple Choice Unlimited data service in violation of their rate plan and terms and conditions by bypassing the default tethering feature or engaging in peer-to-peer (P2P) file-sharing. This type of usage can negatively impact our ability to offer affordable unlimited data. In order to protect all T-Mobile customers, we will be reaching out to these people to educate them on our terms and conditions of service, but if the misuse continues, they could have their data speeds reduced for the remainder of their billing cycle."

I'm not being an A hole, I'm just trying to tell people to use the tethering smartly. I have been tethering since T-Mobile only had 500mb of sharing. Not once have I went over the sharing data. I BARELY use my computer to surf the internet. Why would I need to use a computer to surf the internet when modern smart phones are capable of handling websites and flash. I even said I use slimport to see everything in a bigger view.

T-Mobile Tethering
Not to be redundant here, But if your paying for the "unlimited data plan"
it includes Tethering! not sure what the data limit is but it's included in the cost.
While phones before the nexus 5 had to be hacked to change the setting so you could tether [on t-mobile AFAIK], they still can tell your on a pc.
Obviously there are ways around the limits, BTDT but theres no need on unlimited plan.

My unlimited plan doesn't have tethering. It's true unlimited with no cap or throttling on T-Mobile. My Galaxy Nexus didn't need any "hacks" to tether.

My unlimited states it comes with 5gb of tethering

Tethering PS4 through VPN...and Tmobile still knows!?

Hello Everyone.
I am using a VPN and the Wifi Tether Router paid app from the market. I am curious as to how T-mobile still knows I am tethering, as I just got a "You used 80% of your High speed data" text from them (Have unlimited data plan)
Any ideas on how to completely hide? SSL? Proxy? Only seem to have issues with the Playstation and not the PC....
Any help appreciated...

The PS4 data probably shows up different on the network than PC data. I've read that T-Mobile put some new things in place on their end to identify data usage being masked.
Sent from my LG-H811 using XDA Free mobile app

I saw similar results. I noticed that when I tether, it doesn't route me through my openVPN connection regardless of the tethering method I use. You can test this on your own, fire up the vpn, then tether to your PC, then go check the external IP on your PC.

You'll most likely need a non-stock ROM for it to work. The ROM probably reports all MACs and the traffic passing through it to T-MO.

New Pixel 5 - want to enable Hotspot on Verizon (without their limitations)

I've got a pay-as-you-go account while I try Verizon out in my area. Unfortunately when I turn on hotspot no actual data is passed to the connected devices. I can connect to the phone, but the device I connect with tells me there's no internet. I remember Verizon wanting me to upgrade to yet another level in order to have hotspot allowed.
I've looked around on here and can't find anything related to bypassing this bull****. Can someone point me in the correct direction?
Thank you!

pdanet! you'll need to install it on both the phone and the computer you are connecting to it. it doesn't work on things like roku or streaming devices.
I use it all day every day and have for a year now. blazing fast.
i'm sure there's other solutions, but this is the one that works perfect for me.

Used to be if you were rooted you could use a magisk module to do this.

You can use VPN Hotspot. But I think you need to use a real VPN service alongside it.

Probably out of luck then. I know of no solution.
The only other option you have is to do the pdaNet+ on your computer, and then use your computer as an adhoc hotspot. You'll probably only be able to blast out about 50% of the speed that you draw on your phone going through two hops. But its likely the only solution you can use. And it'll only work on a PC, not a Mac.
Sorry bud.

Maybe I'm missing something here but if you're on a pre-paid plan to try out service, what does the hotspot functionality tell you? Hotspot will give you the same speeds as your existing device so long as you're not subject to any hotspot caps per the terms of service. I have 15 GB of full speed hotspot data on my plan and when I connect a device it is no different than the phone connection. Once I hit the limit then it is of course stupid slow ~600 kbps I believe. I only really use it when traveling to keep the toddlers entertained.

You are missing it. I want to utilize my pay-as-you-go (not prepaid) plan, which has "unlimited" data, to give data to the other devices around me... my tablet, kids devices, etc. Been able to do this without limitation with my Google Fi pixel and account since they've offered Google Fi as a service. Simply click the hotspot icon to enable and everyone can connect to my phone like it's regular router, period. I don't want to give yet more money to Verizon to be able to do this. If I'm already paying for unlimited data once, it's none of their business how I utilize it; and screw their TOS.

Adb commands may work for you. I'll need them for sprint.
Adb set global tether_dun_req 0
Also try a custom OS or locked bootloader? I don't remember the exact command but if you google that you'll find it

I certainly agree with your sentiment that unlimited should be unlimited but as we all know by now that ship has sailed. You were aware of the limitations when you signed up for service. Lots of things are possible but restricted by an authority of some sort. That said, you may be able to do what you want but there will be hoops to jump through. It is foolish to expect a one click solution when you are explicitly attempting to bypass the known restrictions.
PDA Net is one such option.
Funneling the tethered traffic through a VPN is another as suggested above.
I'll make the assumption that you wish to do this while at your home and mobility is less of a concern. The below should effectively be able to turn a phone into a home internet connection.
You will need a USB-C dock with ethernet port, the VPN Hotspot app, and a router that will run OpenWRT
Configure OpenWRT to mangle all outgoing packets with a TTL of 65
Connect the WAN port of the router to the ethernet port of your dock
Use the VPN Hotspot app to tether with the ethernet connection
See if your devices can access the internet
This is based off what I know about how Verizon and many other mobile carriers detect tethered devices. The key is the TTL of outgoing ethernet packets. TTL is decremented at each router hop. From the phone packets always have a TTL of 64. When another device connects via the hotspot the packets will be seen by Verizon as having a TTL of 63. Thus they will deduce that it is a tethered device and limit the traffic. The usual disclaimers apply. I take no responsibility for the consequences of following or attempting to follow my instructions.

Can you believe its legal for a company separate from the manufacturers and even distributors of these device to place restrictions on hardware you own for the sake of profit? Its abusive and embarrassing. (Unless you leasing, then you making me sound stupid as hell)
Code:
adb shell
settings get global tether_dun_required
If you get null or 1 response:
adb shell
settings put global tether_dun_required 0.
try this my friend

Yeah, again, I do appreciate your efforts to help. And no, I am not concerned about stationary setup... I do want to be able to be mobile. Also to clarify I never said I was expecting a "one-click" solution; that is another assumption you made. I'm familiar with linux and also have used the xposed modules in the past to bypass restrictions before on other mobile devices - such as apps detecting GPS spoofing. I used to use an exposed module and had some commands to enter to hide the GPS spoofing from the OS. Worked a treat actually.
I'm going to try Andrew2432's suggestion. Thank you again though - I do appreciate it.

You'll have to let us know if it works. I'm skeptical knowing how they identify tether traffic on my account. You can alter the TTL on the devices that connect to the hotspot but that has to be done on all the devices.

That's what I do on Sprint/T-Mobile, root + Magisk hotspot/tethering module.

Well mines caught and I've tried everything. Editing build props with magisk, dun required set to 0, even the tethering module. When I tried to install lineage my esim wouldn't download. Pretty upset about adhoc pdanet right now. Especially since it cuts out constantly and it cuts out my 5g. Real mad.

As I noted, I don't expect they are relying on your phone settings to detect/block tethering. There are ways of detecting the traffic on their end. Those things are what you'll need to mitigate.

I think with tmobile/sprint the culprit is an extra apn setting that is the hotspot connection. Get rid of that sucker, might have something. Gonna make me mad real quick

Anyway... none of that worked and in the end I gave up and just changed to the "Do More" plan. It's $70 but at least it let's me tether. Verizon wins... Thx guys.

I got mine working. I don't pay for actual internet because of unlimited data. What was the issue with yours? It wouldn't turn on or it wouldn't transmit data once turned on? We can fix won't turn on in seconds with magisk and then hidepropsconfigs module. Install it and use a terminal emulator to add the line "net.tethering.no provisioning=true" to your build prop and it will unlock it.
If its APN related we can fix that too. Just need to mount your system folder and delete all apns, then input your own specified APN with dun added to the type.
No f***** way are they gonna make me pay to use my device as designed
