try this?
Im trying to find a way to get wifi tethering back on my xoom..
My xoom is currently rooted 4.1.2 (stock root)
my blaze 4g is currently rooted 4.0 (stock root)
whats the easiest way to get wifi tethering to work? do i need modded roms on each with tethering?
Hi Spiked,
Are you using a Wifi-only Xoom (MZ-604) and trying to connect it to the cell phone 4g network?
If so you need to enable tethering on the blaze (Wifi Hotspot). This is normally found in Settings > Wireless and Networks > More settings. After you set up the hotspot, and enable it, it should become available on the Xoom in the list of Wifi networks you can join.
Wifi hotspot has been a built in feature of Android since 2.2 Froyo, although it took a while for the hardware to catch up. Mobile Carriers tend to remove the functionality with their custom skins, so they can charge you for the feature.
If the above solution doesn't work maybe you can try this app?
WiFi Tether for Root Users, available from the Play Store. It won't let me post because I don't have 10 replies yet...sorry.
Hope this helps.
