Help with tethering

[nexusNovice]

I'm the op. I tried a different app and now tethering works fine. Sorry to have bothered the forum.

No problem. I think we're just confused with the suggestion that Google did something to prevent tethering on a Wi-Fi only device... Doesn't make much sense.

I have a Droid 3 as my phone and a NEXUS 7 tablet. Neither device is rooted!

On the Droid 3, I have FoxFi (paid version) which sets up a mobile hotspot (with password security).

Once FoxFi s running, I just open WiFi on my NEXUS 7 and connect just like you would with any other secured wireless network.

No muss, No Fuss.

On my Xperia Active, I turn on tethering and use it.
Even less muss 'n fuss.

Thanks everyone.

I read this thread and dloaded & installed Open Garden on my
Razr Maxx, Nexus 7, & Samsung Ultra book series 5 and it works.

I did notice that some apps do not recognize  the connection to the
internet via Bluetooth but I have not had the time to really put
this to the test.

Well, anyway Thanks again.

Is your RAZR rooted? Have you considered the sqlite hack?

I tried tethering this weekend and it worked fine for me.

loociddreemr,

None of my droid devices are rooted.

Open Garden is great if your broadband is registering a decent strength.
Some apps, like Netflix, does not see the connection to the internet and won't stream video.

I am going to try PDAnet Tablet next......
