Let's see.
Android phones with unrestricted Tethering and Wi-Fi hotspot are Nexus One, Nexus S and presumably Galaxy Nexus.
Tethering on any Droid phones are encumbered by Verizon. You have to pay the tethering plan to have this feature enabled.
The same goes AT&T Android phones with "crippled" tethering capabilities.
iPhone supported carrier-sanctioned tethering pre-iOS 4 (iOS 3.x in 2010), just not in the US with AT&T. Different carriers handle it differently.
- bentlegen 15y agoAndroid phones on T-Mobile have tethering enabled. At least my still-locked HTC G2 does. As far as I know, I'm not paying extra for it.
- 37prime 15y agoThat's because T-Mobile allows it. I mentioned specifically Verizon and AT&T for locking the features. I'm not sure how Sprint deals with the whole tethering. As far as we know T-Mobile is a lot more "customer friendly" since they're running 4th out of the big 4 Wireless provider in the US.
- fpgeek 15y agoDoesn't side-loading tethering apps work on Verizon (and newer AT&T phones)? Of course, they can still get you via traffic analysis and other tricks, but that is a different sort of issue.
