Use my smartphone as a modem

[Andygo]

I have a htc hero smartphone. Is there any way I can use it as a modem or access point for my wifi iPad? I have tried the bluetooth conection, but although it says the devices are paired, it also says they are not connected.

You have to "root" your phone. Just type "HTC Hero Root" into Google and follow the directions. Once you are rooted find the Wi-Fi tethering app for Android and it should work from there.
