Jeremy, I'm fine with corded tether or even bluetooth, though bluetooth is my last choice. What have you done to gain root access on your phone? What I've read so far involves replacing the OS with one that has root access. Have you done something else? I'm looking for ways to make a hotspot off the phone, but I think it's ridiculous to make people pay for what the phone can do anyway. I'd rather add an app that makes a hotspot of the phone to the native OS, but I'll replace it if that's the only way.
