Is it possible to use the native tethering on a jailbroken 3GS w/ iOS4!?, like we use to on previous OS, not paying to AT&T for it :D

I think that's the only thing i regret...

Thanks
 
I've been having a hell of a time getting mywi to work on my 3gs lately. It used to work great, now it takes half a dozen or more attempts to get a connection.
 
i'm currently using pdanet on ios4 downloaded from cydia. Using it connected via USb to my mac mini as we haven't got internet installed in my new flat yet. Not tried to tether via wifi as I always plug it in to charge when I'm on my comp.
 
But you cant download files with PDA Net! Right?

That what i liked about the native one =(

My internet sucks and when i use tethering it downloads like 3 times faster...
 
I thought you want native tethering? I have native tethering blessed by Apple, but it's 3.0.1.

Anyone found a way to turn it on with iOS 4? I am not upgrading solely because I don't want to lose my FREE tethering.
 
I had an original iPhone 3.1.3 that I jailbroke and added the battery percentage and miwi. It was causing my phone to run really slow, so I restored my phone. But I had left the battery percentage and usb/bluetooth tethering turned on when I restored. Today I noticed with my new iPhone 4 that the battery percentage indicator was turned off in settings, but I still had the percentage showing. I tried turning it off, but I couldn't. So then I checked native tethering and sure enough, there it was. Now I'm waiting to see if ATT can tell before I use it (just like we did when 3.0 was released).
