How does it not work? Did you make sure to give it root permissions? What kernel are you running?

Yes I did and it comes on but won't let me connect I downloaded another version and when I try and connect to another phone it won't obtain my IP address

Kernal Version - 2.6.37.6-cyanogenmod-01493-g70877de [email protected] #1

I'm using miui I didn't do this root my friend did

If you're using MIUI, 3rd party apps are known to break Wifi tethering for a lot of people. Use the native feature. Settings -> System -> Tethering & Portable Hotspot. Just turn it on and configure it.

I did that and everytime i try it shuts down my entire phone so idk what else to do or whatelse i should download because it kinda sux any other roms that works well with this tethering app or whatever jus gonna need help to putting a different rom on it so help please

Have you uninstalled the app? If not, do that, and try again. I'm not sure why it would lock up your entire phone.

yea unistalled it and reinstalled multiple times and still nothing so i dont kno what else to do i might jus be like forget it, its getting irritating so idk if u got some other suggestions jus let me kno
