Does EasyTether work with French carriers SFR and Bouygues and with the latest T-Mobile updates?
Yes, it works. You have to set the user agent string in the browser on your computer (Firefox, IE, Opera etc.) to the one used by your Android phone. We have several reports that some carriers check user agent values. User agent spoofing solves the problem.
ADB on Mac OS X stops recognizing the attached device after installing EasyTether driver.
Use kextload/kextunload to unload from memory the EasyTetherUSBEthernet.kext kernel extension manually. It is in /System/Library/Extensions/
