Is there any tether Android app that can do this:

1. Can tether with USB or sent out a WiFi signal?
2. Once tether is running, just plug in your USB to your laptop and you start surfing right away. No need to install any driver.

1. yes, there are several, but u need root
2. yes

as gTen mentioned, pdanet is another option, I don't believe it requires root.

I am digging this semi old thread up.

Do you want to 100% say you can tether this thing on Friday ?

I see. Shall I just go ahead and order on Fri and my next week the tether should work? I like to check out the 4g speed. Is that like high speed internet at home?

How long it took the Evo 4g?

To this day, the Arrive has not been rooted yet. Very sad but I am not going Window this time.

Eleventy billion years.

There is no telling when...could take one day or one month.

it won't be long though...so if you don't wanna get it then don't and wait till you know it's rooted.

otherwise you're just running in circles with your questions
