Hi friends, in today's tutorial we will see how we can give internet a Android smartphone from your computer via USB data cable. The Android operating system by default supports USB tethering and WiFi Tethering which means that we can give internet computer, laptop or any device from smartphone. Basically we can turn your smartphone into a router / HotSpot that can connect multiple devices to have an internet connection. Unfortunately the Android operating system does not support and Reverse tethering but we do this using some commands and Terminal Emulator, an application can be downloaded from Android Market.
Why would we want to give internet from computer to smartphone?
For the simple reason that it can not hold a wireless router and do not have sufficient financial resources to buy a data plan from one of the mobile providers. And as a dead smartphone is a device without an internet connection, you will need to have an alternative to connect to our Internet gadget.
Here's what we need to give internet from your computer to our Android phone:
- our Android device must be rooted
- we will need to have Busybox installed which should normally be installed once the smartphone is rooted
- we must have the Android Terminal Emulator application installed
- USB data cable to connect the smartphone to the computer (usually it comes with the purchase of the smartphone)
What we have shown in this video tutorial works on Windows XP, Vista or Windows 7.
That said, I invite you to watch the video tutorial to see exactly how the internet can give our Android smartphone to the computer via USB data cable

About Cristian Cismaru
mmm ... that is not really practical net is desirable for mobile smartphone even if "mobility" means a restricted area ... but so wifi signal USB cable connected ... rather sit directly on your PC where you have a large screen and a physical keyboard plus ... who buys a smartphone 3g-wifi without data plan or even a "bitter" wifi router even does not know for what you buy! (My opinion)
anyway .. Congratulations Adrian! have shown that it can.
This tutorial was requested in the past by a user who said he did not have a wireless router, could not afford any data subscription and said that the smartphone received a gift from someone… He wanted to install applications and everything he had was a dial-up connection if I'm not mistaken and a computer. There are also such cases… your wireless router may break down one day and you are not in the money to buy another one immediately and you do not have any money on the card to pay for a data offer.
Your word… this tutorial proves more that it is possible and something like that even if Android is not designed to do that and why not admit, this kind of tutorial fits well in my portfolio 🙂
hello terminal emulator does not recognize me su superuser can do that is have a smart 858 vodaone pls help
I welcome and I'd like to know how can I send Fiser (music) wirelessly from PC to phone I have a samsung wave 723

The native operating system Android has no reverse tethering, you use a phone with HTC Sense interface and tools, we know that HTC implements all sorts of functions in addition to the interface. All HTC has introduced the Wireless Tethering function on Windows Mobile phones long before functions and Wireless Tethering USB Tethering to be available on Android.
There had to be someone like Radu to contradict, right? To say that white is not white… that it can also be black
The clean Android doesn't look like the one on your Radule smartphone, you have an HTC Sense interface as my colleague said. Search on "goagal" AOSP and you will see what a native, clean, pure Android interface looks like
ask you to please tell me how I can make my phone to show my desktop, I have a nokia n95, important ef mn
thank you in advance
I listen to your tutorials for a few years but I do not know what happens with you too many tutorials I see only android android android just like it would be a small 2 Microsoft operating system appeared yesterday in fine you your bosses that you are would not listen so I had to say no
Hardly a small operating system and did not appear yesterday. Also informs you.
Android is the most brilliant platform for mobile devices like tablets or smartphones. Holds the market share and is currently the most widely used mobile operating system in the world. From 2007 so far are a few years, exactly 4
young, buy yourself a phone with Android operating sisstem and then you've got no comment,, I know of the most fashionable phones ditch the android operating system
Well as I say I have an iphone4 and does not compare to any phone by existing today especially if already 4s talk and think over the phone finally you are right keep up the good work, ANDROID It's the best,
Apart from the fact that it has a beautiful shell, what does the iPhone do? 🙂 The thigh is less important, is it important what you do with it after purchase, do you admire it as beautiful? And let it be Android smartphones that have a cushion, which is more or less handsome…
You can do this on a symbian? I have a nokia phone 6120, it can put PC to phone net? thank you, bye
este4 valid only for android phones? On other systems, eg on Symbian can connect to the internet using a data cable?
Dear Adrian,
I would have tried - out of curiosity - to get internet from the computer, but my tablet (Flytouch 4, with Android 2.2) does not have Tethering (under the Wireless & network settings section I have only 4 lines: 1. WI-FI, 2. Wi- In settings, 3. VPN settings and 4. Mobile networks). Moreover, I can't even connect the computer tablet to the USB cable (the tablet didn't come with a USB cable, but I bought one). Could you give me some advice on how to connect the tablet and computer via data cable (USB)? Thank you in advance.
Please make a tutorial on making a website with Yola
Thank you, Catalin, for help. I specify that I routed the tablet and I have all the necessary programs (and not only), but I can't follow the path indicated by Adrian because my tablet does not have Tethering. Secondly, I don't know how to make the connection between the computer and the tablet via USB cable (obviously, I can make the physical connection between the tablet and the PC, but neither the tablet notifies the PC nor vice versa - in other words, I don't see the PC files on the tablet as well as those on a memory stick). Thirdly, I would like (this is a dream of mine) to put Linux Ubuntu on the tablet, but from what I found on the net I did not clarify how I should proceed - or it may not work on my tablet this thing. In general, a tablet PC can be connected to the computer via USB cable and, secondly, Linux can be installed on a tablet PC with Android 2.2. Is the tablet I have (FlyTouch 4) an exception? How do I find the answer to these questions?
I asked myself a question, can someone help me too?
You need a data cable and Nokia PC Suite or Nokia Ovi Suite as it is called now again. You'll find them on the official website nokia.com
Very good tutorial! Works on Samsung Galaxy Ace is really cool site
Hello, I would also ask you to help me with a method to connect my phone (HTC Wildfire S) to the Internet of the PC (Rds - PPPOE). When I connect the phone via USB to PC it appears on the phone screen "internet pass-through" I select, but unfortunately it does not connect, although after I give it it tells me that it is connected, I think it is a setting related to the PC. I noticed on the net that many are looking for a tutorial or a method, but I did not see any answer. If you can help me please, I'll give you a beer too :). Thank you in advance.
Hello
I have a problem… when I enter the local area connection -properties-sharing I can't find that drop down that allows me to choose local area connection 2. Can you help me please?
Sorin same problem I have and I :). Can we respond adrian. Ii Windows OS 7 x64
And I have the problem of drop down, it's not there, I use Windows XP SP2 I tried to give Settings and I get a tab with several connection names I guess… (FTP Server, IMAP3, IMAP4, SMTP, POP3, HTTPS, HTTP) I must specify that I have a Samsung Galaxy Y GT-S5360. Thanks a lot!
And I have the same problem with the Windows drop down 7. Maybe someone is kind to us and provide a new solution!!
Good ziu! I have a problem I can not check USB tethering, no bifeaza.Mentionez I have a Samsung Galaxy Fit S5670! If anybody knows how fix the problem tell me know. Esteem

Hello. I followed the steps but I encountered a problem. With Terminal Emulator I managed but the company where I have internet on PC did not give me IPs, only a user and password and I did not know which to give properties-> share and which to check like this that I tried each in turn and simultaneously. What can I do?
I think I was pretty clear in the tutorial. If you look closely at what you have in Network Connections you will see that one is Internet Connection (internet connection, most likely RDS) and the other is the Local Area Connections you need to right click and da tick Share (as in tutorial) and if you have drivers installed smartphone, you do it like in tutorial settings in USB Tethering ticking and you have it connected via a data cable to your PC, you should keep in Network Connections Local Area Connections and another representing Smartphone The
I solved the problem. Works perfectly. I did the same operation several times until it worked. I think at first not well liked re set the tea in PC. Thanks videotutorial.ro.
Hello. I have an SGS2, Root, Windows XP and internet from UPC. I tried the tutorial here and my internet doesn't work on my phone. I will say the steps I took: I connected the USB cable to the PC, then I set the phone. USB tethering, on the PC I see two LOcal Area (one is the network card and the other is tel.), I right-clicked on the first LOcal Area (which is the network card) and I checked “Allow other network…” (phase here is that I do not have the option to choose Local Area 2 as in the tutorial probably because I have Windows XP and this option does not appear), after that in Local Area 2 the settings appear as in the tutorial (Ip Address and Subnet mask), then in tel . I opened Terminal Emulator and entered all the data in the tutorial. But the internet doesn't work on the phone. I found on another site to enter in the Terminal Emulator the command "ping google.ro" after I give it enter appears "ping: unknown host google.ro" Can you help me too? Thank you.

What program used to view the image from your phone to your computer?
I did as you said in tuturial but when I entered the terminal emulator and my writing appears su
su: permission denied. I copied several versions of even the tutorial and all the same.
Help !!!
Terminal Emulator is just an intermediary. You can install Terminal Emulator 15000 versions if any of the situations you mentioned both in text and video tutorial above tutorial
I quote one of the conditions that are fixed in the text above tutorial are very sure that you have not bothered to read it:
"Here's what we need to connect the internet from our computer to our Android phone:
- our Android device must be rooted "
I did not have conection local
This means that: either do not have a network card Ethernet (wired) in computer or do not have installed the driver for it.
If you have a PC or Laptop wireless connection you want to give away the smartphone, then you have to follow another tutorial.
Type in the SEARCH box in the upper right sidebar: "How to connect wireless internet from a laptop to a smartphone or tablet, without a router" press the enter key and you will find the tutorial.
If you use Windows 7 on the locking PC you want to go to the smartphone then in the SEARCH box it says: "Connectify, how to turn a laptop or desktop into a wireless router" press enter and you will find the tutorial
please a tutorial on ANDROID MINI PC.imi apologize I have not posted where you
AUTORRRRRR… .. I also managed to go through certain steps, but I say quite far…. namely… exactly until I enter the commands in the emulator terminal, where that SUPERUSER sign other than $ appears to me, but then after I enter the busybox commands, I don't see that SUPERUSER sign anymore, and I think that would be the problem… .... PLEASE ANSWER ME TOO… .. I have been trying for a long time to connect my smartphone to the internet from my pc, I own a SAMSUNG GALAXY DUOS GT-S6102 and SONY VAIO VGN-FW41E with Windows VISTA… .. I WAIT LOOKING FORWARD

Do you have your smartphone drivers installed in Windows? If not, install and resume tutorial. I recommend you to restart your PC after installing the drivers.
Drivers will find them on the official website of your smartphone maker.
Do not go any way.
How do root your phone?
Does it only work on root'at smartphone? I'm also interested in reverse tethering, but I don't want to root my phone. Do I have a chance?
If your phone has JellyBean, you don't have to root it. You no longer have to make an emulator terminal. All you have to do is say what Adrian says in the tutorial on the tracing settings, and the phone should NOT be set as mass storage but as internet. That is, click on Settings-> click on More-> check Internet via USB (Internet Sharing on Windows PC via USB cable)
yes you have and in the first place it is not serious to root your phone
but if my smartphone is not rooted could it work?
I did exactly as he said in the tutorial and I have rooted your phone does not work dc
