You went into settings and selected device s3? Then checked off both servers?

That's the very first app I tried after updating from MB1 to MD4.
I a stock rooted.

Here's my current settings, confirmed working via my desktop and my laptop.

Profile = Auto
Setup Method = Auto
Send netd max = checked
enable wifi encryption = checked
channel = 2
wifi driver reload = unchecked
wifi driver reload 2 = checked
access control = unchecked
mss clamping = checked
routing fix = checked

No dice. It "started with errors" and it always fails when "Configuring AP with Maxclient" and "Starting AP...". Everything else comes out Done though.

Here's the logcat when pressing start. https://gist.github.com/anonymous/a8594d0c0be781e3c5d9

Check your Superuser app. When I updated it installed Superuser..The TrevE mod only works with SuperSU. After reinstalling SuperSU mine works fine again.

Hhmm. I didn't pay attention if he changed the internal version numbers or not with the different releases when he was trying to get it to work right with the GS3's, but when I bring up the about screen it says, 3.2-beta2-modv5 ***Synergized***

In Setup-Method select Netd-Ndc(master). And Wifi Driver reload 2. Also press menu and Select "install binaries".

Also disable Sprint connection optimizer.

It should be up to date. The version numbers shouldn't matter because others have got it working. I have all of the log information in this thread. All we have to do is figure out what the source of the errors is.

Once again, here's my phone info:

Code:
4.2.2
LiquidSmooth-JB-v2.2
Kernel: 3.4.39-leanKernel

Your are on AOSP? Use native tether. Wifi tether don't play well with AOSP.

Just tried this. Native tether allows me to connect to it, but no data is transferred.

EDIT: Tried this using "Native Framework Tether" and I could connect, but again, no data. Also, SSID was changed from what I set it as, to "TetherFallback"

I don't know what you mean by "Native Framework Tether"? What settings did you go to? I have created an imgur album to show how I enable Wifi tethering on my phone. Check it out and verify this is how you're connecting.

Make a hotspot with no security and try again

With the newer version of TrevE mod, it comes with a way to make use of that method, while still able to use access control and show the amount of data, if I'm not mistaken. Didn't work.

No dice :/

Why are you so insistent on using the treve mod? It says on the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2224083 that it only works on 100% stock roms. It was never intended to work on aosp roms. I don't know how else I can say this to have it make sense.../QUOTE]

The original wasn't working, and people were having more luck with TrevE. If I can get any kind of wifi tethering working, then I'd be happy.
