    Bionic USB Tether

    Has anyone been able to tether to a Toshiba Thrive tablet using an USB cable? I can USB tether to a Windows notebook with no problem. The Thrive has both the regular and mini USB ports, but I can't seem to make it work. Any ideas? Thanks in advance!!

    Would love to tether via USB to avoid paying more $$$ to Verizon. One would think that an Android device could talk to another Android device! thanks for any help you can provide!

    Another alternative is FoxFi in the market. I use it to share my Bionic connection with my Asus TF101 when needed.

    +1 for FoxFi
    Droid does some cool and amazing things. Yet it does not do some basic stuff that has been stock on most phones for years. It makes me think the Google developers were marooned in some kind of a 1977 LOST flashback/flashforward/sideways combo reality gameshow

    Because the stock hot spot will be better than any third party app any day of the week cuz the hot spot was specifically coded an compiled for that device no 2 hot spots on 4g devices are the same I have seen much better signal with the stock hot spot than any other 3 party app
