Wireless Tether Patcher - One-Click Solution - 2.x

[peterpressure]

Do you know if you had upgraded to Locale 1.0 a week ago? I never saw this issue on Locale Beta, only 1.06.

I was actually running the Beta and getting the drop-outs also ...

OP, you are the man! Wish I had seen this thread before the half dozen other tutorials I tried...this one is the easiest and works PERFECTLY

[SGMD1]

One question...I set it to overclock at 800mhz...if/when I want to undo that, how do I do it?

[SGMD1]

bump...

Also I don't have SetCPU installed...am I still getting 800mhz or do I need to have SetCPU to utilize the higher clock speed? My phone seems faster to me but might be placebo effect lol

[Larkitect]

your phone is still running @550MHz. install setCPU and let it autodetect your phone. you can then adjust max/min clock speed.

i have the ota 2.1 rooted, works great. tried to install the wireless tethering and overclocking. everything goes just as planned until the final reboot. locks up. have the pull the battery and do backup recovery to get to boot. any fix for this to work on ota 2.1 rooted on droid?

If you have the OTA (over-the-air) 2.1, you're not rooted. Maybe you used to be rooted, but if you took the over the air update, you're not anymore.

Also, this thread was obsoleted a long time ago. All you need to get wireless tethering now is root and a new kernel. Look for another thread on the topic, or better yet, start a new thread under "hacking help".

thank you for your answer. i think you can root a ota 2.1. see link below. my phone had never been rooted, not roms, all stock. rooted it yesterday. in terminal i get the # with the su comand. installed busybox. the best i can tell it is rooted.

I'm about 99.9% sure that what those directions are actually having you do is flash the ENTIRE phone (and actually, there are much easier ways to do that). Did it reset all your settings and require you to re-install apps when you did that?

For future reference, what you have (I'm pretty sure) is not a rooted OTA 2.1, but just a regular rooted 2.1. It's the same version, and mostly the same, but you installed it with RSDLite, so it is no longer "over the air". Saying "OTA" when it's not is likely going to confuse people.

In any case, still don't follow the method in this thread - start a new thread in hacking help to figure out wifi and overclocking. Leave out the OTA part, or you'll get a lot more people telling you the same thing.
