New to Androids....trying to tether a Sprint Nexus S 4g running 2.3.7 w/ baseband version D720SPRKE1 and kernel version 2.6.35.7-gf5f63ef android-build@apa28#1 and build number GWK74. As i have no clue what any of those really mean I'm hoping someone can give me any advice as to tethering this phone using USB for free.

If I am not mistaken, Sprint disabled the tethering option in the latest update (2.3.7). There is a software patch out there, that you can apply to re-enable it, but it requires you to root your Nexus.
