If your using the tethering that comes with the ROM you have to go to change device profile and put it on LG optimus s and it will work

Yes on your question just need a rooted phone :D
 
I've been using the one that is in the roms.. just WiFi tether... it's. worked great till yesterdat. now I get a message from metro PCs saying "WiFi teetering is not supported" but only on some sites... Th and you tube work fine .. I'm rooted and everything... any ideas???

Can you post a screenshot of the error message? PrintScreen on your keyboard, paste it onto Paint, save, upload to imgur or whatever site you use.
 
Ya you'll get that lol do you have Firefox? If you do look for an add on called user agent switcher I'll load an image in a bit that shows the settings so it spoofs that it looks like your using your esteem phone

This is the UserAgent:

i have an error saying browser incompatibility with netflix after i changed the target location to mobile android, any suggestions? I dont have a micro hdmi cable.
 
First, you have to be on the 70$ plan..... Then use the firefox "user agent switched" (ad-on) and set it to Iphone.... now everything is working for me!! at lightning speed!!!:D
 
Has anyone thought if your using the iphone user agent ummm MetroPCS going to know that your tethering lol cause too my knowledge MetroPCS don't sell i phones lmao that's why maybe should use the esteem agent
 
This did not work, a google chrome fix please? Anyone else?

Ctrl + Shift + I then you will see few additional developer menus on bottom. Click the clockwork icon to open up setting.

Check Overrride User Agent. I use Other then typed LG one which is posted above.

Still I have same problem though. I can go youtube, facebook etc.. but not other sites browsing.
 
Google firefox user agent
