Root rooted, but wireless tether doesn't work

[nightelvesreasy]

Anyone else have this problem? I rooted my phone simply for the fact of free wireless tethering, it worked great for the first week or so, then all of the sudden my wireless tether just seemed to slow to a crawl or not even connecto to my computer, I have EasyTether for USB tethering, but after awhile of USB tethering, my phones battery is completly drained, it shuts itself off, and i have a temp gauge flashing at me. So I figure if I can wirelessly tether with my phone on the charger I'll be sitting alright, but right now, nothing, I have both barnacle and wireless tether, and neither of them work anymore, half the time it wont even connect to my computer, the other half of the time when it does connect, its so ungodly slow its useless. Anyone know what happened, or if verizon sent out a "silent update" over the past few days.

BTW phone is just rooted, no custom rom or kernal

Try barnacle legacy. Worked better on the sf.

if your talking about barnacle wireless tether, thats the app im having problems with, and when I type in barnacle on the marketplace, all that comes up is the app I already have, and then a widget
