Okay, it's on and looks cool. But the wifi tether included int he ROM isn't working. No error messages or anything, but neither my Microsoft Surface RT or a Windows phone can even see the SSID, let alone connect. I tried turning on encryption, changing the SSID, etc, but nothing I have done works.
I'm using the Boost Warp.
Also, if I try to use the WiFi tethering in the Settings, it just pops 'error' if I try to activate it.
 
The menu in settings is a placeholder, me as well as others are working on getting native tethering working. The WiFi tether app uses a different mode than your stuff understands, its made to tether to PC. All of ours(and most android ROMS) are like this. Sorry but that's just the way it is until we get native working. The USB tether in settings works fine however.
 
Neither of them work for me. The included, separate App seems to run, but I can't see the SSID or manually connect to it. The Settings option to tether won't even run, I just get an "error" under the checkbox.

I can't get any of the other tethering apps on Google Play to work either (including Barnacle, but the names have all blended together... I tried about 5 of them).
 
Right, you've already explained that and I've already explained the reasons for both of those things. The WiFi tether app uses ad-hoc mode which your stuff can't see. Typically only PC's can use ad-hoc mode. Like I also said, the tether menu in settings is a placeholder for when its working. The USB tether there works but not the WiFi(yet).
 
Hello, Mr. PattF. I just want you to know that this is the best ROM I've used for my Warp. Not only does everything just work out of the box, but it's extremely smooth with a lot nice touches and additional features. This is also the first time I was able to use the flashlight on command and not just when taking pictures. I feel like I have a new phone again.
 
Sorry guys but I'm going to have to end this ROM. I just picked up an iPhone(I know, I know) and I'm giving my brother my Warp. Not having roam on Sprints small network was killing me. Anyway, it was nice hanging out here with you guys. You're all pretty rad. Stay that way.
 
I love this ROM, but there is no option to enable mobile networks, so i wasn't able to turn mine back on, because i was previously on wifi :/ is there a way to turn them on, so i can use my 3g?:/
