Real USB Tethering on Stock ROM for our Defy!!

[alezzandro]

Hi guys!! I've just tried this app and it works great!

It can share your Defy's internet connection to your pc!

It's a real tethering not a simply MODEM Tethering, you will NOT pay extra cost to your Carrier!

I read about it here on xda:

Moto Tethering USB

See ya!

The default build-in USB tethering is working fine. Why would one need another 3rd party app to run?

As you can see from App description:

** Moto Tethering USB uses exactly the same data plan that is used for the on-phone Internet access like in the built-in browser or e-mail app or youtube application. No additional tethering fees.

The built-in function acts like a modem that can be intercepted by your Carrier to make you pay additional costs for your current connection!

I'm not sure if anything you say is correct. But I'm on unlimited data plan which also comes with voice, MMS, SMS and etc.. I've been using the build-in USB tethering as well and Wifi hotspot for over a year and none have any extra charges from my carrier.

I do USB tethering with my Laptop and Desktop. Share my Wifi Hotspot with my friend's phones and all working as it is..

I don't see the need of this 3rd party apps unless your phone doesn't have the default USB tethering and 3G Wifi Hotspot build-in.

Every Mobile Carrier reacts in different ways to Mobile Tethering,

Here in Europe, many Carriers apply different costs for Mobile Browsing and Pc Browsing,
