Don't know about the app from the earlier post since the link is dead. However Foxfi does apparently "fool" the
Existing stock Wifi tether tool into thinking it's activated and so it just works.

The error shouldn't be their but like foxkat said it does trick the stock wifi tether to turn on, did u go to settings and device profile and choose droidx?

If I'm not mistaken PdaNet 3.25 has a WiFi tether option but I've never tried it.I like the lack of dropped data when using USB tether.

Droid Tether

You do not need an app to tether. Pdanet works fine but is unneccessary. All you have to do is pair your laptop or tablet with your phone. Connect to it and off you go. I have been doing this for a few months now and it works fine. I had a droid 2 now I have a Razr Maxx and it works great. I do have an unlimited plan with Verizon but no extra tethering plan which costs $30 more. I do not know if they hamstring other types of data plans....

Wont hurt to give it a shot right?
