I believe this issue is caused by a lack of RNDIS drivers in the stock kernel 
on verizon phones.

Don't know if this affects other carriers' phones though.

android hd 2.2 rom, lte version, usb tether not working. Although an 
experimental wifi tether is functional.

Is the app still in active development?

I did get it working on GNEX connected to a Ubuntu 12.04 laptop, but had to 
compile my own kernel with the CDC Ethernet device instead of the RNDIS device 
(Device Drivers->USB Support->USB Gadget Support->USB Gadget Drivers->CDC 
Composite Device (Ethernet and ACM)). It complains that the Kernel is 
incompatible, but it works anyway. I compiled the 
"android-omap-tuna-3.0-ics-mr1" kernel as stock. It seems to have some minor 
performance issues, though. Tried to compile the Franco kernel with this 
setting but could not get fully through the compile process.

My compiled kernel is here: http://goo.gl/r2OVw (redirects to Google Drive), in 
case it is helpful. You will either have to use fastboot to boot it on a 
per-use basis, or burn it to your GNEX using fastboot (If I recall, I think 
fastboot is part of the Android SDK).

You can also get a serial console (at least on Ubuntu; not tried on Windows) 
using /dev/ttyACM0, but it does not have ADB support compiled in because the 
Ethernet/ACM gadget and the Android Gadget are mutually exclusive.

Here are some sparse notes on how I compiled it:

Hope it helps!

Was just able to get the current jellybean Franco kernel for 4.0.x 
(http://goo.gl/xPIR5) compiled with the CDC Ethernet/ACM Serial device on, and 
it does still work with android-wired-tether. Can't speak to the stability or 
performance, because I just started using it, but here it is in case someone 
wants it.

FYI - I had to turn off android-wireless-tether and turn it back on once or 
twice with the USB cable connected to get it to connect.

This works with Linux host only, as far as I know. I'm not sure if there is a 
Windows CDC Ethernet driver.

Got RNDIS working in kernel on GNex; attaching the kernel image. This works on 
both Windows 7 and Linux hosts (tested). Again, it's the current Franco kernel 
with RNDIS configured.
