I got it working. Using Easytether.
Anyone having this issue:
-
I installed the easytether app to my phone.
-
I installed the easytether on to my system using the easytether’s own website pkg.tar.xz file rather than the one provided by chaotic aur repo. It didnt seemed to work the one provided by repo.
-
In the phone app i just followed the unix guide within the app. Putting usb-debugging on etc.
-
Honestly if you are not stupid like me just read the arch wiki carefully (im sorry) Android tethering - ArchWiki . I tried this before but i couldnt get it to connect with the easytether using the one provided in repo so i gave up with easytether.
-
I was also missing the dhcpcd package.
sudo pacman -S dhcpcd
- The i just ran it after installing the dhcpcd package.
sudo dhcpcd tap-easytether
Another case of just read the wiki. (im sorry) So if you are having this issue you are probably also missing dhcpcd package and using the easytether provided by chaotic aur repo. Just dont do like me “oh i just install this one from the repo and do the rest. NO just do it how wiki tells you” I dont know if these are broken or idk but this is how i got it to work.
If you have been doing like wiki says with easytether, you are likely missing the dhcpcd package.
The connection doesn’t show up in the networks tab but honestly i do not care at this point. It’s now working.
tldr: i tried to use easytether without success gave up. tried again following the guide carefully success.
