Tethering with the Nexus (Wifi and Wired)

[rexdog1888]

I've tethered before using my tbolt (not much, just web browsing @ airport) using almost every tethering app out there(including built in one in CM7) and have never had any issues w/ Verizon(I have unlimited plan and only tether maybe 100MB in 2 months fwiw )

I use (and am the developer of) the app "Wifi Hotspot and USB tether" by SVTP which doesn't require rooting, and it works fine with Galaxy Nexus. Never had any trouble from Verizon in 6+ months of use.

I know there are some tethering options native in the Galaxy Nexus. I've been afraid to touch them. Has anybody tinkered?
If we used those on a rooted phone, would VZW be alerted to our tethering usage and start charging us for a mobile hotspot?

Thanks.. good work!! Downloaded the free version yesterday, worked perfect on my laptop. I'm waiting on buying the full version to make sure it works on the Transformer Prime when I get it.

I Started this before the tethering ban in this thread so enjoy why it lasts but this is going to get locked soon.

Per Verizon tethering wireless devices should take place only through their pay-per-use app. Anything outside of this is considered, by Verizon, to be theft of service.
