Hey guys to give you alittle of a background. I am simply just trying to activate my wireless tether so I can use it on my ipad. Mobile hotspot works on my tmobile phone with a snap of a finger. Listed below is a image of my thunderbolts error upon bootup. Ive gotten this error on SOAB BAMF, Liquid Smooth. Ive done alot of research but just keep hitting a stump. Any help will be greatly appreciated. lastly, I have never flashed a radio to this phone before and I dont know how...

I will help you, but you must promise me not to abuse your data... >20gbs a month. Don't ruin it for the rest of us.

I definitely want to thank your first and foremost whether this works or not. I thank you for your time. Secondly, 20gb a month? heheh I doubt ive ever hit that mark. This is my work phone specifically used for email and data and very little calls, I primarily use my personal phone samsung galaxy s2 for calls and text... but last I checked on mytmobile the most ive used in 4 years is 1.7gb lol and thats heavy for me hahaha. ty ty again.

I know I don't have a thunderbolt but the same issue appears on the droid incredible 2. I found a fix and posted it here

For some strange reason the cm team left out the two modules that activate WiFi and that's why you get that error.

I thank you guys again for your support however, i followed both techniques listed above with no luck. Give me a second to get setup at the office and Ill shoot another picture of the error that I am recieving. Your knowledge is not taken for granted.

What version of wireless tether are you using? The fix I posted was for v2.0.7. I have never had any kicking getting the beta builds to work.

Update: I just realized that I have dun disabled on my phone. Im not 100% sure but that may have something to do with why it works for me but not for you.

I tested the settings with 2.0.7 got the same errors, then I tried the latest beta build. My tier 3 rep at work uses gingeritus and 2.0.7 and hes coasting :( but we just dont know what it is about mine. I am going to test the DUN setting you just told me about. I really appreciate all the insight you have provided.

Is his rom sense based and yours cm7 based? I found that sense roms usually don't have this issue but all the roms that are aosp do.

I personally had flawless wifi tethering with Infected Eternity with the wifi tether setup I posted. Have you tried the new radios? :)

When i select the hotspot tethering and try to enable it just unchecks itself, I am running the latest MR4 radio and build 248 of the infected eternity rom. Guess im just not suppose to have this feature at all :( Thanks for everyone that has helped its truly appreciated.

I had some issues with different ROMs as well well getting wifi tether to work, but here is what I have which currently works:

a. Thundershed 1.5
b. IMO Lean Kernel 6.1 for AOSP
c. Latest Radio from 2.11.605.19
d. wireless tether 2.0.7
- Be sure to check the Routing Fix in Settings

When I start up Wifi Tether it brings up "Tethering or hotspot Active" in the status bar from the built-in hotspot, but that doesn't seem to affect wifi tether.

Also, when I first set it up I started it, let it setup the binaries and get superuser permission, then I stopped it, let it do whatever, then started it again.

I can connect without issue now. I hope this helps in some way.

I just got my thunderbolt today so maybe tomorrow I can look into it more for anyone interested and come up with a fix maybe. I haven't had a chance to get root but ill have time tomorrow.
