Anyone know what will do wireless tether to my rooted nook color? I downloaded Wifi tether, but that doesnt seem to be working. On my D1 I used to use Wireless tether.
The newest version supposedly got rid of the statistics bug. I haven't looked at that yet but the tethering itself definitely works.The Android Wifi tether app Beta 9 - works really good (with those mentioned bugs - but I'm not concerned about those measured/tracked statistics).... Now I can hook up my Xoom to my Nexus on-the-go

VZW can't track this correct?
Pete made some changes in his ROM a while back to use the stock settings to turn tether on and off without directing towards VZW.
I have yet to see anyone verify if this widget does this or not, but the fact that it works without root leads me to believe that maybe it just answers the question yes automagically for you... and that you would see it in the bill. I would like to see how someone got root access to change that in system setting using an app, on an urooted handset. I am not convinced, but am open to proof.
The real answer is VZW "could" track anyone tethering if they wanted to. A simple look at the resolution of the web pages you request through their network (which is completely legal on their end) would be a dead giveaway, since they know what device resolution you have. They don't seem to be monitoring that way though.

I forgot I configured my DNS with my local DNS server so after changing that I can confirm that Elixir 2 widget does work. The wifi tether that requires root also works but causes random reboots on my phone. It is a beta so I guess that's not unexpected.Is there some trick to getting Elixer 2 to work? I made a widget that turns it on (using "Wi-Fi AP (Hotspot) toggle") but when I connect to my SSID in windowz I get "No Internet Access".
