Help Foxfi /pdanettablet

I'm running ctmod3.68. I have problems with losing my tether with this rom. I have to keep resetting the app. Half ass worked without a glitch for whatever reason.
 
All this work and I am chasing my tail. I feel like I am the only one that can't get the tether to work. Keep alive? I feel like I have checked a box that commands to stay dead!
 
I'm not in my house. That's the thing. I'm trying to use the phone to connect my tablet while I am on the go. That was the whole point of me dumping Foxfi on my stock unrooted phone. At least that kept a connection more or less. I was hoping that this way would stay connected. I read about people watching movies and Xbox live and I can't view a frikken Web Page without it shutting down.
 
Well, I don't know what to tell you.... nobody seems to have that kind of trouble like you have. However, wetbiker posted a link with the different versions of WiFi Teher, so maybe try a few versions down or up..... Not sure what version you're running......

If downgrading or upgrading WiFi Tether doesn't help, I have no answer......... Good luck.........
 
Worst comes to worst I will head back to half ass. I had the best luck with that even tho it isn't as slick as this CT7.
I will get it running. I have faith to go along with the ghosts. :)
I got help from above. Thanks again LV. :thumbup:
 
Ive got ctmod 3.68
WiFi tether, access control, easy to use,same instructions, my version is 3.2-beta2 ***beta***
On the store its called, "WiFi Tether for Root Users" <muller,lemons,buxton>

Asus transformer 300t, it connects great,connection is alive,even when my phone sleeps,i get a call, its still active...its great!

Msg me your email and i can email the apk or link, if you cant find it on the store.
 
I have installed and un installed gone stock and back again and I still can't get the Nexus 7 to stay connected. I think that it has to be an issue with the tablet and not the phone. I have followed directions to a T.

yep, may just be the tab then... :(

i use wifi tether for root users all the time without problems... with my pc, and with others androids (not everyone has unlimited data... poor souls)
 
I just went back to stock with your link. I installed Foxfi and am online now. I am back to square one but I learned a bunch. I need a day off so I can troubleshoot with another device.
 
If I want to go from stock to Cm7 do I just copy the files to the phone and Flash? When do I partition? I tried earlier and ended up with no icons just a wallpaper? I don't know what I did wrong but it was annoying trying to navigate so I dumped back to stock.
 
Do a few factory resets before flashing cm7 and clear your cache.,...

You shouldn't need to partition ( think you did it already ), you also can format the sd-ext ( NOT your SD-Card ) before flashing cm7 !!!!!
 
No matter how many times I factory reset in cwm and clear cache I still have no toolbar icons when I install. No way to make a call. I also still have the zips on my sd. Is that normal?
 
HAving the .ZIP's still on your SD-Card is normal ( as long as you don't format your SD-Card, then they would be gone ) !

For your other problem, you migt need to wait for the "cm7-specialist-from-above", he might knows how to fix it....... ;)

you mean on the home screen? long press the screen, select launcher actions, then select 'open close app drawer'

Problem solved... Lol! Then you can just add/remove stuff from the dock bar as needed...

Adw is just customizable. It comes with nothing set at default. Once you create the app drawer icon it should all fall into place
 
I am so fu@#in annoyed at this BS! Any app or version I try loses its connection. It's weird. Say I connect to Foxfi on my tablet and I start walking. I know the exact spot where I am going to drop the connection. The tablet then shows Foxfi or android tether as not in range but the phone shows an active hot spot. I then have to restart the damn app or o thru PDANET to reconnect. WHY?

it could just be that the prevail's wifi broadcasting strength isn't super strong... ever consider that you are just exceeding it's range?
