How can I use reversed tethering on apps and/or to log onto my Google account?
<p>There's no Wifi and I do not have my micro-SIM card yet, so I don't see any other way than using reversed tethering.</p>

<p>My Nexus 4 is rooted and I used <a href="http://www.howtogeek.com/117118/how-to-connect-your-android-to-your-pcs-internet-connection-over-usb/">this guide</a> to setup the reversed tethering. It works for surfing, but not for logging onto my google account. If I try to log onto my Google account, it just opens up the wifi-panel.</p>
