will someone with a rooted evo do something for me?
USB_tether - 4shared.com - online file sharing and storage - download
Take that file, rename it to something shorter, like usbt or something and put it in the tools folder of your sdk. Do a nandroid backup, then fire up terminal/command prompt
Type in the following:
Code:
cd c:\android-sdk-windows\tools
adb remount
adb push usbt.dat /system/xbin
adb shell
cd /system/xbin/
chmod 0755 usbt
Then fire up a terminal emulator on the phone or continue using adb shell
on the emulator, type su, accept the superuser permissions and then type usbt
check to see if this allows you to tether, best bet would be to unplug any connection you had, then follow all these steps.
I have been trying to work on this and putting this into an app, but I'm having some trouble learning/understanding java/dalvik and what I can and cannot do. If any developers out there feels like letting me pick their brain, I'd greatly appreciate it.
This works on the Hero, curious as to if it will work on the Evo, too. No need to select internet sharing, typing usbt would run the file. Thanks. Please PM me if you are a developer with decent knowledge of building Android apps.
Also, this is just for Windows and Linux, does not work with Mac due to a Mac permission issue.
