Motorola Droid Hack Brings WiFi Tethering [Droid GUI Based WiFi Tethering Now Available]

Motorola Droid Verizon

For many of us, tethering is what makes high-speed 3G connections so great, and network operators know it, hence why many have blocked it for their customers in an effort to get people to sign up for a new Internet plan. Among those who still “care” about us, Verizon have announced some time ago that the uber-hypedMotorola Droid will be getting tethering support for a price. But what if we’ll tell you that you’re just a simple hack away from bringing WiFi tethering to your Droid?

We already heard that USB tethering with your laptop or PC is possible, but now we caught wind of a Droid hack that will supposedly allow access to high speed internet through the handset’s Wi-Fi connection.

More to it there’s no need to run any shell commands as users get to control it right through the phone’s GUI. All you need to do is to install a custom kernel and a custom recovery image, and voila, you have Wi-Fi tethering on your Droid smartphone.

Full steps on how to hack your Droid for WiFi tethering can be found on DroidForums (link below), so get them done and remember to restart your handset right after.

    Yawn- this isnt news. Android, yes the same os running droid, has had this since day 1 last November 2008 and beta before that. Simply install a rom, root, and tether. and VERIZON is NOT one of the ones that care. If you did any research (not sponsored by Verizon that is) then you would know T-Mobile is the only network that says “don’t do it, but if you do, we are not going to penalize you” and still offers real unlimited(not Verizons crappy 5gb/month) data plans. Get you facts right and get off the dam Verizon bandwagon. That company is unethical and run by thieves.
