[Q] Root failure affecting tethering?

---

Solved in post #2 & 3.

My wife has a Charge and I am trying to root it for her just so she can tether her laptop from her phone instead of my ThunderBolt all the time.

I used Odin v1.82 to flash the latest recovery file (0817_charge_recovery.tar).

I flashed PB&JTime Kernel from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...=latest+kernel.

I rebooted phone to find I had no root using Root Checker from Market.

I manually downloaded SuperUser from Market. Rechecked and had root access, according to Root Checker.

I'm running GummyCube2.0, successfully now.

I downloaded both OpenGarden and Barnacle. Neither tethering app will work. Everytime she tried to connect to my phone, it shows up as a wifi network, but her phone shows up as an Adhoc network, which will not even connect.

Any idea what's going on here? Any more information I can provide to assist in finding a solution? Any help is appreciated... I want MY phone back, damnit!

Edit: That worked great in conjunction with this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1166497, which I just happened to see while browsing. Nothing even came close in search. Sorry to waste your time guys, but thanks for the help!
