Root Can't seem to get wifi tether to work on my VM HTC Evo V 4g

[atrain3234]

Hello, I completely rooted my phone with superuser and I have downloaded the WiFi tether app(wifi_tether_v3_3-beta2.apk) on my phone. When I start tethering I get an error message. I tried changing the device profile to generic ics (wlan0) and generic ics (wlan1), enabling routing fix, mss clamping and all that and I still get the message. Does anyone have any idea how to fix this issue. Thank you.

Have you tried to choose Netd (master) as the Setup-Method in settings along with the other things you've done?

Also, make sure that WiFi-driver reload is checked too.

I have always used barnacle wifi when setting up a hotspot or adhoc ; it has some great options as well.

I did some reading, and it seems if you try to tether via an adhoc network, it would most likely won't be viewable on your tablet.

Which goes back to my previous question: have you tried to choose Netd (master) as the Setup-Method in settings?

This was the magic for me as well. Tried all the other fixes but this was the one.
