Default lost tether app.. gone for good?

when i did a hard restart i stayed rooted with fresh 1.1 (wired) but the apps were gone except superuser. i found them all again except tether.. and i cant seem to find that anywhere.
any ideas how to get it again? can i tether without it? is it safe to flash fresh 1.1 on top of 1.1?

You have a rooted HTC Hero? Try downloading and installing this:

Hope that helps. It worked fine for me.

It generates a WiFi signal. You don't need to have it plugged into the USB cable. I'm not sure if that answers your question.

in a way yes.. at their web site they also have instructions to use bluetooth, in which case you could run on either mobile or wifi depending on what your using your phone on at the time.
wonder whats faster to link via wifi or bluetooth.
i did a serch for a tether walkthrough/ howto and didnt find much, not even on youtube

Bluetooth is slow as molasses compared to WiFi. I have no idea if you can do BT tether with our phones or not, though.

I think it works, but your BT Adpater has to be setup for it. I don't know much about BT other than pairing lol. Ad-Hoc = Easy&Fast.
