    Wireless tether successful, but no internet?

    I'm trying to get the wireless tether to work on my rooted NS4G and just can't get the internet -- no IP address comes up on my PC either. I'd appreciate any ideas.

    What's Your Favorite ROM?

    I'm new to rooting -- have rom manager. Each time I try a new rom I have to 'clear cache, etc" right? And re-install all my apps? Easiest way to do this is??? Thanks for not laughing too hard at this question.

    New Nexus S, touchscreen thinks its being touched when not!!

    You have 30 days to return, not just 7 days. I took my last phone back at day 25 or 26 --- waited a week and then bought the nexus to start the 30 days over again. Not trying to scam the system or anything, just want to have enough time to be sure I will love the phone for two years --- don't...

    Phone has signal but not making calls or getting data

    Signal on my new nexus is not great at all at home -- same problem I had on evo and evo 3d as a matter of fact. Have to keep it up on the window sill in order to get any signal. It's rooted, but I can't get the wireless tether to work -- had to break down and turn on the hotspot today so I...

    [ACS] Nexus S 4G AIO root & CWM flashable zips

    Re: Sorta one click root I downloaded wireless tether last night, but I cannot get it to work. I'm googling for help, but if anyone has any advice, please let me know --- I can't get my laptop's wireless to see it, nor the desktop's wireless stick (netgear). Thanks.

    [ACS] Nexus S 4G AIO root & CWM flashable zips

    Re: Sorta one click root I rooted it!!! So excited, did it the same night I got the phone. I rooted for wireless tether, but now that I'm rooted, I'm not sure where to find the wireless tether??

    NxS4g or switch to Photon

    The Pre is doing pretty good --- funny, better than I remembered. But I can't tether from it and that's an absolute necessity for me --- because I can't keep going over my Tab data allowance, costs too much. And the Pre's screen is too small for me -- these old eyes need a larger screen...

    NxS4g or switch to Photon

    I'm worried now! I just took my evo3d back twice, and finally for a refund due to signal issues here at home. I reactivated my PalmPre (it's what I had in the drawer) and have been using it until I find a phone I want. I really need the hotspot from android --- it's my only internet...

    Anyone come from a larger screened phone?

    I'm happy to see this forum - I come from an evo 4g and just recently from the evo 3d (which I didn't like at all). I turned it in and I've reactivated an old pre. My 2nd phone (for work) is a BB Style which I'm getting used to -- like one day, hate the next. But I do miss android and I was...

    The Evo 3D won't be the same breakout hit that the Evo 4G was

    I'm on my 3rd evo 3d and it's going back for a refund tomorrow. Not the phones fault, but I cannot makes calls from within my house, my neighborhood, etc. OG Evo was fine, not this one. I'm going to miss those rings on opening too, darnit but I can't justify spending the money for a phone I...

    Should I exchange or replace

    Had a car problem so I didn't get to Best Buy today --- but I am definitely going tomorrow. I assume that I have to go back to Best Buy, so that's where I'm starting out. I don't expect an issue, I have buy back, insurance, and the 30 day warranty --- they have all my money, so I should be...

    Should I exchange or replace

    I'm headed to Best Buy today to turn in my launch day evo 3d. The signal is terrible -- I can't get or make calls from inside the house -- my house, the neighbor's, down the street -- I've called Sprint and they have had me power it down and have done a 'reset' or something from their side, but...

    Why my EVO 3D is being returned

    I've called Sprint twice and each time they have had me power off the phone, they've spent five minutes resetting it or whatever, and each time it's made zero difference. I'd exchange it - could one phone's signal be better than another's? But if I do and it still doesn't work -- do I still...
