Awaiting true infrastructure

For those reading this thread, the folks at XDA figured out true infrastructure mode, and one of the dudes is working on the integration into the app without having to put in commands as it takes right now.

this is monumental for those that need that mode (PS3, Wii users) Should not be long now. if this already posted, sorry.

Re: Free WIFI tether works !!!!

Thanks for the reply! I didn't get the option to give super user permissions....so, is there a way to do that? I know, a stupid question, but having to recall my linux command prompt stuff is taxing at this stage in the game....

Thanks for the PDA Net option. As with WM...I was just hoping for a free solution , as I found with WM .

Thanks!

Patty

Same problem here. Didn't get the superuser permissions and error out "unable to tethering". I was using unrevoked but then I downgrade and root now this program doesn't work. ):

Re: Free WIFI tether works !!!!

Once you root using toast method you have to go thru the second part of the setup. Most people doing the unrevoked method haven't had a problem. There is a file that is put on the phone by both methods that needs to be there the su program when you first start the program you should see a prompt that asks if you want to give permission for this to be super user you must answer yes always for this to work.

Re: Free WIFI tether works !!!!

So, how can we get this file and all that? I have searched all over the internet for troubleshooting this. I never got the prompt to put the program in SU mode.

Any pointers on what to do? What file should go where?

Re: Free WIFI tether works !!!!now with infrastructure mode.

Ok, this is probably redundant, but I am posting directions CLEARLY for people who get the "Unable to start tethering. Please try again!" error.

1. Install the Android SDK following the instructions.
2. Root the phone.
3. Unrevoke the phone.
4. Install the wifi tether program.

O, duh. I missed the unrevoke step! DUH!
