I've read many questions here on SO that ask how to enable USB tethering programmatically.
The answer is always the same, ordinary applications can't do it, only system apps.
Yet for 2.3 you could download an app in the market that would do it for you.

On ICS (Android 4.0.3) it no longer works.
How did they do it for 2.3? Is it possible also for 4.0?
