Wifi Tether from Samsung Vibrant??

I have my brand new Xoom (purchased today), and I'm trying to find my wifi hotspot being broadcast from my rooted Samsung Vibrant via Barnacle.
I CAN'T find my wireless signal. Can anyone help?

I did that for Samsung epic4g, I'm assuming it will work the same for you considering we both have galaxy s phones. Try it.

P2flol,
That didn't get it... Anything special I need to do after I DL that app??

So you installed it, opened it up and were you able to change it to softap for samsung in settings -> setup method? If not what else is listed there for your phone? I was assuming all SGS were basically the same, I guess not.
here's what I have on my epic4g galaxy s under setup method:

So what do you have under setup method?...

If your rooted use wifi tether http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/
Or use the built in tethering if you are on a 2.2 rom. Tmo doesn't charge for using it. That's what I use with my Galaxy S 4G.

Wifi problem without reasons

Hello,
So since today my wifi stopped without reasons, i was looking some videos on youtube and the wifi "crashed" and after that i couldnt find any wifi spots (localbox or hotspot).
I tried some reboots but there's no effects.
So what is the problem in your opinion and what can i do ? thanks
(PS : I'm running on GingerDX and i installed SPB SHELL 3D and FlashPlayer 10.3 by Paul1989 today but it was working normally)

Nobody knows what is wrong?

You using Stock Kernel or LinuxDX Kernel?

Stock kernel in my opinion (sorry i'm a novice )

Did u try to delte all netwroks from mobile phone?

If you're speaking about all wifi networks, so yes i've already tried this

Otherwise it's like that when i try to connect to wifi firstly it's like that durring 2-3 mins :
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
then it's like that :
And as you can see, the mobile doesnt search any wifi, it just shows me wifi networks added.

ok there is a solution for this as i had the same problem a few months ago delete all the networks u added reboot and it will search for them trust me

Thanks mate for your help but it's still the same

the only thing i can suggest then bud is a clean install again

I fixed my phone with PC Companion and its work!!!
But now i'm scared about install GingerDX again

ok use toolbox which can be found in the development forum to root and install dual mode recovery pop gdx 17 on sd card boot to xrecovery and install i gurantee there will be no issues the gingerdx can be found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1188486

I had the same problem a few days ago.
I forgot all networks and wifi started working emidiately

Welcome to the club, we all need that, so we need to find a root for it or so some one that can tell us how to wifi tether..

rooting
Try towelroot .. to root just Google it

Towelroot doesn't work with the ZMAX. There are 2 threads here in General that are all about rooting the ZMAX--it can be done but it's not exactly a 1-click process.

Kingroot will temp root, Android forums has directions on how to make perm root

How to wifi tether ZTE Zmax android 4.4.4
This is my first time ever posting any thing like this so please bear with me. And I do not take cred for those who created the apps needed for this project.
First you must root the phone using KingRoot
Next you will need wifi tether 3.3.beta 2
Setting the wifi
1) Go into your settings and change your device profile:
(wlan0)
2) change your set-up method:
Netd-Ndc (master)
3) wifi driver reload 1
[X]
4) enable access controls
[X]
5) Routing fix
[X]
6) Disable Update check & Wake lock
[X] [X]
And there you go. Should work with laptops ps3's ps4's etc

No root

If I remember correctly the plans 40,50and 60 dollars get hotspot service with the plan. If your device is compatible.

Rooted My s6 edge+ and now i need help

Hi I've been a longtime iPhone User, Since the first one infact and the new 6s didnt really impress me so I decided to jump ship and try the android world. I was always a jailbreaker and I decided i was going to root my phone to get the benefits but I ran into a problem. The root went well but since I rooted my phone wont remember Wifi Passwords. If i leave wifi on and leave my house and come back its fine but if I switch Wifi Off then I have to re enter the wifi code. Is there any way to fix this? If not is there an easy way to unroot and restore?
Thanks

It's a very easy fix you'll need a build.prop editor which you can find on Playstore then open your build.prop editor and change ro.securestorage.support from true to false then reboot you'll have no problems after that. I've attached a screen shot to show what it should look like

Thanks man that worked like a charm. Any chance you could tell me what you can do with a root? I did it for adblock but can't seem to find it anywhere and all the stuff from xposed installer don't seem to work for me it says framework not updated or something like that.

Lots of fun with root I use it to debloat my device to increase performance and battery life via a custom kernel You can flash custom Roms and themes as well for customisation. Here's my Dropbox link for AdAway

Install and reboot

How do I get fee free data tethering w/o Xposed? I do have it rooted!

EDIT: Problem solved! I was using v2.7 linked in an obscure youtube video. I used 3.0 and now it's all working just fine.
AT&T - The Xposed installer says when I open the framework says "Xposed is not (yet) compatabile Android SDK version 22 or the processor architecture (arm64-v8a)." I cant install the framework with means I cant use the Xposed tether app.

Not necessarily so, ability to tether can be controlled by the carrier. On a stock phone it is quite possible that the ability to tether is restricted depending on the your terms of service.

Yes, but this phone is NOT carrier branded. Shouldn't it work regardless if the carrier has a tethering option? Daughter's phone is not rooted. Uses a Verizon Sim card. Has unlimited data. She can tether her tablet to phone without issues....

The Moto X Pure stock firmware will not allow me to tether either. It says my plan does not support tethering. However on the Moto G 3rd gen, it does not seem to do this check, and tethering works fine. Unless it has to do with the SIM, since the G3 uses a micro, and the X uses nano.
