Why doesnt my tether app on my rooted photon work with my galaxy tab? I can tether my ipod touch and laptop from my photon. Any help ? thx

I can't tell you why, but if you are running as a wifi hotspot with security, disable the security so your Tab can see the SSID of the phone. Connect to the phone. Then disconnect the tab, re-enable the security on the Photon and it should work.

My security is off.

At the time you attempt to connect to the Tab, is the phone tethered to any other device?

 

[outkast25]

No. However it does tether with other devices flawlessly.

so?

Does the Tab see the SSID of the photon? I'd also make sure that you have the latest OS for the tab as ther may have been some issues like this.

Mind you, this is all basic troubleshooting. The people best qualified to answer are other tab owners.

No , the tab does not recognize the ssid from my phone. .....
