Can't restart tethering #959

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
Which device (manufacturer, type)?
Samsung Fascinate

Which firmware is installed?
2.2.1
What version of wireless tether are you using?
3.0-pre14
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Start wireless Tether
2. "Start Tethering"
3. Use sucessfully
4. "Stop Tethering"
5. Start Tethering"

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected to see yellow Icon. See the "Start tethering" dialog box. The dialog 
does not go away. If you press the "Back" button the dialog goes away, but 
tethering will not start again unless you power off then power on the phone, 
restart WiFi Tether, and tap "Start Tethering".
Also after "Stop tethering" if you don't reboot phone the phone will sometimes 
just power off by itself like issue 932. Notice that even though you stop 
tethering and tap the "Back" button WiFi Tether remains a "running application"

Try using version pre12 and you probably wont have this problem

Saw the exact same issue with my Droid Charge on Verizon.  Reboot phone, start 
tether, everything works fine, stop tether and try to restart tether and it 
gets stuck on "starting tether" screen.  At this point I lose all data and 
can't even browse the web on my phone until I reboot.

Took the advice above and tried pre12 and everything works fine.  I can start, 
stop, start as much as I want.  App doesn't crash and I don't lose my data 
connection.
