Wi-Fi Tethering - easy, no root required

Wi-Fi tethering is disabled on earlier Japanese Android smartphones - all models running Gingerbread - the tethering menu has been hidden.

You can get wi-fi tethering to work using one of the following two ways:

1. By getting access to the tethering settings:

1.1. Install AnyCut (on phone memory)

1.2. Run the app, select "New shortcut", then "Activity". Wait for list to load, and scroll down. The Wi-Fi tethering settings is the SIXTH "Settings" entry on the 005SH and the SEVENTH on the 007SH. 

* When I try to start the hotspot, I get an "Error" indication. I am sure it used to work quite a while ago, before I had even rooted the 005SH, but not any more. Maybe it will work for you.

If it doesn't, try the second option:

2. Install Barnacle Wi-Fi Tether from Google Play. It works like a charm on my 005SH.
