Root BAMF 3.0 RC4 and wifi tether?

[uffy]

I just installed BAMF 3.0 RC4 and MR 2.5 radio. Really like the whole setup but I can't get Wifi Tether to work using Barnacle (as suggested elsewhere).

How can I get Wifi tether to work with my setup?

So Barnacle did not work but "Wireless Tether" did. I had to install via apk as the app store would not allow download over Verizon's network. Downloads - android-wifi-tether - Wireless Tether for Root Users - Google Project Hosting

Hope this helps others.

I was running RC4 on MR2 and Barnacle was a little sketchy to manage. Worked sometimes, then not others. It particularly didn't like the Y5 app I use to dynamically switch wifi networking. The stock wifi hotspot app was not bothered by Y5 strangely. So, if i turned it off (and then wifi off) before turning on Barnacle, chances are barnacle would work.

I just bumped the radio to the new official mr2 and barnacle works a little better but that really doesn't make sense to me why. Don't know but if you are running other apps sometimes it fouls up the start up process.

Hope my experiences help.

So can I use the built in Wifi Hotspot app in BAMF without incurring charges from Verizon?

Don't know what data plan you have? I was just commenting on functionality.

Just use wireless tether. That way you won't have ti worry

I have this same problem, wifi tether has a problem connecting half the time. With the mr2 and 2.5. I just wish it would work flawlessly like the mr1 radio,

It works (connect) perfectly if I do a restart on the Tbolt. And then start up wifi tether
