One feature sadly missing from the G1 Android phone was the ability to tether a laptop and use the phone’s data connection. Luckily, the Android community take this kind of thing as a challen.
It is now possible to tether the phone - although it might be more effort than you are willing to go to.
As it stands, the app will require some fiddling with the phone’s settings to allow non-Google-approved apps to run, enabling USB debugging, plus installing the Android development kit on the PC you wish to tether. There may also be a short ritual involving a pentagram and 4cc of mouse blood.
It’s a faff, but it does work - and if you need to tether, it may be worth the effort. Now the principle is out there, of course, things should get easier. Anyone want to guess if this will be the first Killswitched Anfdrod app?
