Hi Droid Charge fans,

I believe this is the only wifi hotspot app for that works for Droid Charge with gingerbread and no root:

Free version: (Limited to 2 days + 5 minutes/day)
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.svtechpartners.wifihotspotdemo

The Pro version is $14.99 through Android Market or PayPal:

I haven't seen any complaints from Verizon about using this app, but it is possible they might block it in the future. (I'm the developer)

Questions? Email hotspot@svtechpartners.com

Thank you, Android Forums, for allowing tethering discussion now.

Love this app!

One question that's been floating around: Any concern about the new update affecting this or other tethering/hotspot apps? I know that "remote diagnostics" has to be enabled by the user in order to run, but considering the aggressiveness with which this update is being pushed (I've clicked "Install Later" about 100 times in the past 3-4 days) I'm a little nervous.

I saw on another board that a different hotspot app continued to work after the update. But my concern would be that "remote diagnostics" might hunt down eventually catch up to all tethering/hotspot apps. Maybe I'm being paranoid. Can anyone verify that 3rd party tethering/hotspot apps can continue to run undetected after the update?
