After you click pda icon, it should have a tab to enable usb tether...Thats the on off button.
Hope this helps

Here's one for the group... any way to install PdaNet onto a PC that I don't have administrator authorization to? I have my own login etc but can't install the program (blocked). I did try PDAnet at home and it worked great, love to have the same convenience here too...

Is there a way to install PdaNet onto a flash drive or external hard drive and use it on any PC I can get onto WITHOUT needing admin authorization?

The verizon store recommended an app called "advanced task killer" to save on battery use on the droid. There are other app's that do the same thing. be sure PdaNet is NOT turned off in those app's.

Sure is! TaskPanel is the best app killer and has an ignore list & an auto kill list. Free from Android Market.

The app was updated ... as i said in my post (AT that Time) the app was a BETA version.
PdaNet now available for Android (free USB tethering over 3G or WiFi)

I have tried several times to install pdanet on my android. It gets stuck at the same place and says error 0x5xb4. It can't access my phone. I do not have a yellow exclamation mark in device manager, and I have changed my telephony and remote connection settings (except one won't change). I don't know what else to do.

snowbird777

yep, you hit enable usb tether

chadwick108

Is there anyway to use the same serial or get another one so that I don't have to purchase again since I already have for a windows device?

Hey I just got the hero and have been trying to tether it to my MACosx using usb and it has the icon on the MAC stating usb bus Android phone but no internet, thanks for any advice

TheSultan

did you set up an account? and that icon on the MAC..did you click it and tell it to connect? You also have to "enable" it on the android device as well.

Works for EVO?

jcthorne

Yes, was one of the first apps I installed. I have used PDAnet on WinMo and Palm for many years.

Will it still be needed when Froyo gets installed?

i downloaded pdanet and it works good. have a question tho. i told a coworker about tethering (he has an iphone). couple days later he tells me his son did some research on tethering and he found that apps that allow u to tether save ur usernames and passwords when u go to websites. is this true. i haven't done the research myself yet. but i will and not use pdanet til i know for sure they don't.

I want to know what pda.net is and how it works with my phone/computer. I am confused as to what exactly it is. Any information would be great!

PDANet is an application that is installed on your Winslow computer and to your Android/PDA device. Its purpose is to allow you to tether the computer and PDA, ultimately allowing you to surf the net or whatever using the PDA as the Internet source.

PDANet works on devices that are not rooted and on devices that are rooted. Installation is normally without any problem. It is not fast, but works ok. I have used it since the days of Palm and it was one of the first paid apps I went with when I got an Evo. The application is tied to the PDA, not the computer, so you can use it with multiple computers, just not multiple PDAs. I have never been able to get it to work with Bluetooth, only USB.

If you are rooted, try Wireless Tether. It works without cabling, setting up your PDA as a wireless router, much the same as your home router, abet a bit slower.

I have both installed on my Evo and there is no interaction between the two. Is it worth purchasing? Yes.

I'm trying to install it, but my computer doesn't seem to recognize the phone. I've followed all instructions listed on junefabrics.com/android/drivers.php, and yet my computer does not recognize "Android composite ADB interface". I have installed the driver listed for my phone, but still no luck.

Help?

cdub10

Has anyone tried this on a Captivate yet?

Everytime I go to the market to download it, there are no results when I search for it. My buddy has not problem finding it in the market on his DroidX. Think I may need to try to install from my PC?

If you still need help with connecting PdaNET to linux, look at my post below yours. I figured out how to use PdaNET with Linux.

radtechy

what makes PDA net work with no additional "mobile hotspot" fees???

and just want to know if i understand this correctly that im NOT using the "verizon mobile 3G hotspot" as long as i DONT click that icon in the app drawer or when i connect via usb cable (where is says to mount as a hard drive) and i say away from the "mobile braodband connection" option

just curious.....what makes it use our normal data plan and not the tether plan

sorry if this has been posted before but all i kept reading was: how to do it and that it doesnt cost extra. i want to know why

ddricci

I'm trying to use PDANET tethered going through a VPN for work - runnig IPSEC seems to diasble connectivity through the VPN.
Is there something known about this?
I can connect just fine externally that is before I attempt to connect remotely through my works VPN.

Well I just wanted to let you know that I setup my connection and it ran perfectly and as a matter of fact I am using my Sprint connection via 3G and I was only getting your numbers. I did however turned my 4G on and went to 5.19MB for donload and 1MB for upload and that is just at 3:18 in the after noon. I know the network is more crowded at this time of the day. On my phone at nights I get almost 10MB of upload and 3-4MB upload speeds. If you have 4G network, try connecting through that, I guarantee you will be happier.

LONG LIVE EVO4G baby.

Mine also works perfectly if slow but there is a problem: there is no way of contacting them on their website. I've paid my $19 and would like the option to upgrade when a new version comes along...but there is no mention of upgrading and no way of contacting them. No way to run a legitimate business!
