    Droid A855 tethering

    Hello. I have the droid A855 model and wish to tether with it. I currently was using a hotspot with the Palm Pre Plus, but do not care for the phone. I have downloaded the xp file drive needed. Verizon does not support tethering with this phone. Is there another option so that I can tether? Thanks

    You need to root the device and then doenload wireless tether from the market. There are many threads on rooting which will explain how to do it

    to the forum. To wifi tether you need root. I think you can usb tether. It would be in settings/ wireless & networks/ thethering. If you have more questions feel free to ask. Enjoy your stay.

    Welcome to the forum!! lots of info in here - probly more than you could ask for!! browse around, post around, and join in the fun!!

    as for your specific question, there are a few apps that allow for tethering - Easy Tether, and PDA Net. they're in the mkt. also, as mentioned above, you can tether pretty easily with root. but, before you root, i would recommend researching the threads and deciding whether it's right for you.

    Root the device (voiding your warranty) and install the app from my sig.
