User Rating4.50/5Respect knuckles to Samsung Vibrant Hacks for figuring out how to tether the Samsung Vibrant Android smartphone without the need to root with the use of Samsung’s Kie synchronization software! Many non-techies especially business folk do not know about nor care for rooting or even know that Vibrant is running Android 2.1 and native tethering features are not introduced until Android 2.2. This hack makes it easy to obtain up to 3G mobile Internet speed for your laptop or netbook via USB tethering.

It would be interesting to see this hack used for AT&Ts’ Captivate, Sprint’s Epic 4G and Verizon’s Fascinate when they debut provided you have the correct APN names and phone numbers. If you would like an even easier way to USB tether there are a few paid Android apps that can help you such as PDANet or EasyTether.

I have the vibrant but i don’t know where to download Samsung Kies from?
nevermind i figured it out, this site is very helpful!
what about for the samsung epic 4g? can we do the same here?!?!?
Have you ever tried using PDAnet? It’s a great app with the only drawback that after a while you can’t use it to log into websites such as Facebook unless you buy the app.
After clicking on the Tether icon, the Settings icon is greyed-out and therefore, not available. There is also the following in the Tethering window, “Please set Connection Properties First”. Any ideas?
I tried and it work only once. I can not repeat again the next day. now the pop up screen said “the device is not support bu tethering” do you know what I did wrong? What other setting do I need. I tried to reset the phone to factory setting and still not working. please help.
I hav a samsung Galaxy Ace i need to the USB application how can I get it please any help
