I Only Want to Tether

[Blind Driver]

I'd like to tether without rooting...for free of course

PDAnet is now begging me for my moniez

What are you using? Will I have to root?

I believe so... Doesn't mobile hotspot does the same thing?

Yes, but it's not free

I would just root anddelete the program that blocks the stock hotspot from working, actually that's exactly what I did, works great.

This is my first Droid so rooting is new to me.

Is there an offical tutorial?

You could start here:


AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II General - xda-developers

And what program was that, the one that you deleted, after rooting?

I think its ATT network management that you want to freeze.

Getting my S2 this week. I also only want to root for tethering. Anyone have verified, detailed, clear, instructions on how to do this?

Question, when ICS finally come out, will rooted S2 have to do manual install?

Would it be too much to ask you to walk me through it? Step by step... not Geek Squad speed, you are dealing with an old man here that is not smart on smart phones.

Well, I am rooted, got titanium backup, and a few other apps, but Android Market has me blocked by ATT for getting Barnacle wireless AP application for the Samsung GS II i777.

Probably I screwed something up or some AT&T application I forgot to freeze out with Titanium Backup.
