free wifi tether

[gianthobbit]

I used unrevoked to root so I could use wifi tethering. From what I see the Google wifi tether app does not have the evo as a choice to download yet. Is there any other option to get wifi tethering (without paying the monthly cost of course)?

You can try one of the apps not designed for the evo. If it doesn't work right away, try running the wifi on, then toggle airplane mode on, then off while still on, and see if you can connect a device afterwards. Has worked in the past for 2.1 Hero (1.6 works better on the Hero as there is no need to toggle).

Try the NEXUS 1

Are you telling him to change phones or is there an app called Nexus 1?

The Evo has the same issue with arp as the Desire, so WiFi Tether doesn't work without the same workaround. Read issues 330 and 362.
