I had the same issue. I wrote a small script for that. If my memory is good, it was working pretty good apart for the google play (don't remember the reason thou). ``` #!/bin/bash ifconfig usb0 192.168.42.135 up echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE adb start-server adb shell su -c '/system/xbin/busybox ifconfig usb0 192.168.42.130 up' adb shell su -c '/system/xbin/busybox route add -net default gw 192.168.42.135 usb0' adb shell su -c 'setprop net.dns1 8.8.8.8' adb shell su -c 'setprop net.dns2 8.8.8.4' ```
