Root Confirmed Root and Wifi Tether?

[Bkral]

Im looking to get this or the Xperia X10 and I was wondering if anybody has successfully Rooted and got Wifi Tethering running on the N1.

I continue to use my 32gb 3GS for the tethering since the wifi available in my dorm is pretty terrible.

Thanks in advance.

anyone ?????????????? xperia x10 tethering ????????????????

Why would anyone in the N1 section have a clue about X10's wifi tethering capability?

The N1 does it without the need for root as 2.2 supports it out of the box.

I think he is thinking about buying one or the other. Out of those two phones the N1 is the best so buy that.

If you're looking for functionality, I think you'll end up on the N1 side of the camp.
Oh what am I even saying, the nexus is superior on both form and function

OP: Just incase you only want info on the X10 and accidentally posted in the N1 forum, I've moved your thread to the X10 Forum

And to answer the poster question regarding root and tether
Yes its doable. I have rooted the x10 and tethering was a simple matter of downloading barnacle app from the market. Rooting was a bumpy road when I did it but seems to have all the issues smoothed out now.

Yep you can root the X10 and run Barnacle wifi tether no problems.

I wish we could get 2.1 or 2.2 on the X10a&i via ROOTING! Heck I think almost the entire X10 community would ROOT to get them, lol.............
