Confirmed still broken on beta8. I can't even get as far as the poster from 
comment 51/52.

New experimental buil on galaxy nexus looks to be improved and only fails at 
activating wifi interface in log. All others show done

@ comment 57, gnex has native screenshot support. Hold volume down and power.

@Everyone: The feedback is greatly appreciated.

Now, can someone with ADB Shell access do the following with the latest pre109 
build:

1. Connect You phone via USB cable
2. Open Android Wifi Tether
3. Got to settings and select Galaxy Nexus profile.
4. ADB shell into your phone and enter the following
$ su
# cd /data/data/com.googlecode.android.wifi.tether/bin
# ./tether start

5. Copy the output from the screen and paste it up here..

Also....

If someone has stock tethering or any other tethering app working, dmesg output 
after starting up an AP with either app could be useful in seeing how they get 
it done.  Neither Harald or I have this device, so it makes it hard to just 
slam dunk this, and get it done.  All of your feedback is very appreciated!

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
So, I take it you guys can see the AP, just don't get an IP assigned?  

That one error we are seeing now is an ifconfig command, probably has to do 
with changes that have been made in the wireless interface naming scheme.  All 
other broadcom devices I see in the Android Wireless Tether application use 
eth0, while GNEX uses wlan0 as the wireless interface.  I think we are are 
close, though.

Also, if someone has that other tether application running, the output from 
"busybox ifconfig" while running that apk, could be quite useful.

ok, can we get the output from "busybox ifconfig" from right after that?  
Thanks so much.

Oh. Is that really AFTER you have exectured "./tether start"?

Could you please also execute:
/data/data/com.googlecode.android.wifi.tether/bin/iwconfig

And post the output here?

Thanks a ton.

@andy:  Can you humor me, and fire up tethering from the application to where 
you get that failure at "Activating Wifi Interface", leave the application in 
tthat state, and then give the "busybox ifconfig" and iwconfig output.

@74

I don't have my GNex right in front of me, but I've been playing with this for 
a couple of days, and running iwconfig reports that there's no wireless 
extensions for wlan0.

Needs a kernel module that didn't get included, perhaps?

Ok. Lets try this one:
http://android-wifi-tether.googlecode.com/files/wifi_tether_v3_1-pre110.apk

Uninstall any old version before installing. This hopefully works.

Only one minor issue. It shows the total downloaded and uploaded for the entire

I noticed that as well.. almost freaked when I saw that. 

It seems to be working perfectly for me. I can't test too much as I'm plagauged 
by the apparent poor signal strength issue with the GNEX. When it is working it 
is working flawlessly and is fast as snot :D

I can confirm 110 works also with VZW Galaxy Nexus, with the same quirk that it
