SU issue when wifi tethering

[Reckless_Kelly]

I'm running the Fresh 0.7 ROM, and every time I try to turn on wifi tethering, I get an "SU Request" screen, and then it gives me the option to Force Close or Wait. I had the wifi tethering up and running 2 days ago. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the wifi app, but I still get the error. Any ideas?

i just put the apk on my sd card and theeeeennnnnnnnnn:

terminal:
su
mount -o remount,rw -t yaff2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
cd /sdcard/
cp wifitether.apk /system/app

All worked well after that.

He means get the wifi tether app. Put the APK on the root of the sd card. Open CMD prompt. Type what he has after Terminal:

Alright, I finally figured out what I was doing wrong. Thank you for your help, both of you. Looks like I'm going to have to learn a new OS, fun fun.

Care to elaborate on what you did wrong, just in case some hapless traveler with a similar issue happens to stumple down this road?

I had the file named differently, and in the wrong folder on the sd card. Stupid mistakes that aren't really OS related. But I'm still learning about the terminal and the basic commands for Android.
