I had the same problem when installing mytether. Freetether coincided with mobile hotspot (sprint), but no longer works with 1.4. If you do a hard reset, i.e. hold down the power button and reset, it should appear. Freether (IP Forwarding) is still used with mytether. Works for me anyway.

I installed free tether while I had Mytether installed. I've since uninstalled Mytether and free tether works fine in 1.4 for me.
