Not intentionally... does it block your phone's normal traffic, or
does it just not route it through Tor?

Well that might be - you can use 3G on your phone still through Tor,
ideally, while other devices connect to your Wifi-tether, which is
also sent through Tor.

In theory, but it starts to get pretty complicated with all the
iptables rules. We also have not done indepth testing of
TransProxy+Tethering on 4.4.

We can take a better look in our next testing go around.
