tethering

[Fitz1015]

so i know we are going to have to pay for the hot spot but i was wondering if any one knows if we will be able to tether wired via the USB cable. i know that you can do this on the incredible just did not know if any one that has got to play with the EVO has seen this option or if sprint has turned it off.

cool thank you for the reply. really don't want to pay for the hot spot when i might only use it 5 times a years or less. so i don't mind using USB.

im the same way. but I still hoping that someone will be able to have an app that will still make this into a hotspot. My pre has it and it works great.

I also have a pre and love the mytether app and from what i understand that if you root the EVO you can get a wireless tethering. just not too sure about rooting a new device. the pre was super easy just i know nothing about android.

How many folks are tethering their EVOs to their PCs? Anyone gotten any flack from Sprint about it? I'm about to try it myself, probably starting with Easy Tether and, if that doesn't work, with PDAnet. PN worked great with my Moto Q....

I use it a decent amount. Tried pda net and recently "Tether", formerly tetherberry. This seems much faster than on my curve. Shouldn't get any flack from sprint since you pay the ten dollar premium for truly unlimited data. I'm sure that is why sprint is looking to cap data.
