So....two things...
1. Wrong place for the question. There is a thread for questions.
2. Yes use wireless tether for root users in the market. That works as a hotspot.

I don't understand why we would put all questions in one thread that I have to search though. Why not use the forum as a forum should be used and easier to read?
Although this should probably be in the general Q&A forum but it also has to do with having root so its a tough call.

This forum is not question about root. It is for ROM development and such, not questions regarding how root works, etc.
If we have one place with all questions, one could then use the search function on that particular thread and hopefully find what they're looking for.
This should not be posted in this forum.

That right.

Tethering without root!

PdaNET Software avalible for free, for the android phone, http://www.junefabrics.com/android/
Install a small app on the PC and bingo you have a tether!
Combined with google voice, you can have visual voicemail, call screening, and free calling/texting. Who needs root?
Hate to be that guy, but....

no he works for them, he is trying to get people to use the trial so that they will buy it after it expires. Because he knows a lot of people come back to xda to check to see if their is an easier way to root for unrooted incredibles. I don't think this belongs in the development. if anything it should be in the app section.

Just wanted to say thanks

So, I've been a bit of a lurker but, I felt that I should post this. I've had a Droid 2 since August & decided to finally root it. Due to the many amazing guides out there, this process was easy & painless. I just wanted to say thanks to those people:
darkonion's One Click Root
brutalDROID's HOW TO ROOT Droid 2 - IN DEPTH TUTORIAL
pc747's Droid 2 hacking/rom install class
So, thank you again for making this process incredibly easy
You should have put this in the general section, not development. It's good to thank but do it in the correct place. Either the specific forums (thanks button) or in general.

I'm an idiot. I thought I posted this in the General Discussion section That's what I get for having too many tabs open. Is there any way that a mod could move this to the correct section?

[Q] Xperia play root.

Hi guy,
want to know if it possible to root my xperia play without unlocking the bootloader and my phone detail is as below.
Android - 2.3.3
Model: R800i
Thanks
It's completely possible if you use the flashtool OTA method. There are multiple threads about it. It doesn't require unlocking the bootloader.
Sent from my R800
Basically you have to use flashtool to revert back to 2.3.2, run gingerbreak or whatever tool to to get root access, and then do OTA to go back to 2.3.3. It only works with ota, if you use our pc companion you will loose root again

is there a risk that i might brick my phone using flashtool to revert back to 2.3.2? also will all my file in the phone or sd card will be wiped out completely after flash back to 2.3.2?
thanks

please use the search button. You're not the first one asking this
yes you can
I really don't understand why people don't just answer questions for people on forums like these. Obviously he should've used the search, but that doesn't make his question invalid. You can save him some time and confusion by answering his question directly, I'm sure it would've taken just as much time as it would to type out "USE THE SEARCH."

Sure I can, but after doing it for so many peoples that creates new threads with the same question, you lose your patience.
Hahah I have been biting my lips in saying the same
There's a reason I said "there are multiple threads about this"
This question keeps getting asked over and over by people who don't bother looking at other threads or using google.
One or two of them actually contain instructions written by me personally.
It gets annoying when people expect you to write a whole guide for them, when they were too damn lazy to look beforehand.

Learn some manners!
urm have you seen the number of threads asking exactly the same question?
pretty easy you can just scroll down general and you will see everyone asking the same question.
A good official guide will solve that > > ' I haven't found much success with finding any good locked bootloader guises for nooobs.

I agree but you don't have to read them or respond to them if they get on your nerves? If you must then simply post a link to the forum rules or search results.
Searching forums can be time consuming and a pain as the information required is usually lost in a mass of irrelevant threads or posts like these.
Instead of flaming the noobs the posts should be removed or helpful answers provided so when these threads also show in the search results it does not waste peoples time.
Remember just because you don't want to take the time repeating yourself or replying to these posts don't mean other members with knowledge and time on their hands feel the same.

External WiFi Adpater?

I am going to try and develop a solution to make this work. dmesg output on android does detect the USB device so it may be possible.
Stay tuned.

It uses a RTL8192SU driver on Linux. I've herd of people being able to get this work on the Asus Prime. Any idea if it's possible over OTG USB?

Actually I think I am going to if I find a solution.
Questions go in the Q&A section, not the Dev section - and certainly not the Original Development section.

I recommend you post questions in the Q & A section. But, more importantly, I recommend you use the search function of the forum(s) to search for similar threads (as the rules state) before posting any questions in any of the forums. Simply searching this subforum for "wifi tethering" returned a couple of good results. Good luck.
