1)go to the file /data/data/com.motorola.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db
Open it on any database editor(for example - X-plore), then go on the section settings and look for the "entitlement_check" field and change its value to 0 or default.
2)Some says also you have set your access point(apn), change apn type to - default,tether
I did it, and I can connect to my hotspot but there aren't any internet.

I had the same symptom, connect to hotspot but no internet access until I did this:

How to revive Hotspot
Install the sqlite and go to Settings Storage -> settings.db -> settings
Change the field
a) entitlement_check -> 0
b) dun_apn_changeable -> 1
In the setting of apn, type apn -> default,dun,supl
Enjoy

My Cellphone model is MB886 and it is runnin android 4.1.1. I am unable to find the settings storage using the SQlite. Any ideas why ?
My problem I will again regurgigate is that whenever I turn on mobile hotspot it says you have to first make an account on ATT&T, same is the case with all other tethring.

No, it was not pre-enabled. When attempting to use mobile hotspot you get the message about the account not being authorized, because well, it really isnt.
I found the entitlement check on line 118 set to 1. Changed it to disabled, will post back with results after reboot.
[edit] Works like a charm!
I found the "entitlement check" at line 153. changed it to "disabled" and it's working. I guess it's handset dependent. Filter under "entitlement" and you'll find it.

You have to get the correct APN (Access Point Name) for your provider to make data/MMS to work, you should not require the XT883 firmware. Just try google with your SIM provider followed by APN settings.. such as "Orange UK APN Settings" or check their website, or give them a call for the correct APN settings. Some SIMs have the APNs locked into the SIM, some of them do not include APNs (You might check a phone from the SIM provider for the APN).
When you find the correct settings, go to Settings > Wireless & Network settings > Mobile Networks > Access Point Names
Create a new APN and enter the info you found. Also check Battery & Data Manager > Data delivery to ensure data is enabled.

I personally use MavRom (Maverick Rom) version 4.0, as version 4.5 has a battery drain issue with the overclock script. It's based on 906 with modifications and tweaks.

so i was going through this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1406812 for flashing xt883 radio on my phone as the reception is very bad i had a few doubts
1) do you connect your phone to the pc while doing this
2) do you download root explorer on your phone from the app store and are there any free ones
3) and how do you go about doing this ( Use root explorer to push the build.prop into the system folder )

On Stock and Blur based roms, there's a little line in the build.prop that Verizon snuck in.. that makes any GSM network appear to have bad reception (only 1~2 bars) but if you check under status, the reception is actually good. You can fix that by editing this line in build.prop;
ro.mot.phonemode.vzwglobalphone=1
Change the 1 to 0 and save, then reboot, this should fix the 'reception issue'
A free root browser would be JRummy's Root browser lite, or ES File Explorer (you can enable root browsing in settings).
Build.prop is in /system
IF YOU INSIST ON FLASHING XT883 (Only required for using AT&T/T-Mobile/Other USA GSM networks)
Open a root browser; copy the build.prop you have to the SDCard or somewhere safe. Copy the build.prop (after you edit the line I mentioned before on the PC, you can use notepad). After you put it in /system MAKE SURE YOU FIX THE PERMISSIONS. Most root browsers just long-press build.prop, then tap permissions (ES is Properties > permissions) Check only Read (on all three, user, other, etc) and Write on Owner ONLY.
Then use the fastboot instructions to flash the XT883 radio. THIS WILL BREAK VERIZON CDMA.

[FIXED] Problem APN setting on 4.2.2 roms

For those who travels outside the country.
I upgraded to 4.2.2 on my phone. Now I'm deploying in Afghanistan, bought a Roshan SIM card from a local shop for $2. I couldn't get the phone to connect to mobile network, or internet and couldn't access APN mode from the settings. I've tried to upgrade different ROMs 4.2.2 with same issue.
Resolve:
Phone must be rooted
- open and edit file /system/build.prop
- look for these lines:
- telephony.rilV7NeedCDMALTEPhone ...... set = false, or disable the line with #
- gsm.current.phone-type ...... set 0=none, 1=gsm, or disable the line with #
- reboot the phone.
Addition note:
To edit APN setting file manually; /system/etc/apns-conf.xml
thanks a lot for that, i just use xt925's roms and it work, but this will give me the opportunity to try all roms , thanks again.

I did this and nothing changed in the Mobile Network Settings. I've only tried this in the CM10 Nightly 4.2.2 by Skrilax.
What else is necessary to achieve an APN Settings section in 4.2.2? THANKS

Can you open APN setting on Mobile Network Setting?
Also you edit APN setting manually /system/etc/apns-conf.xml

Sprint Nexus 6 Wifi Tethering *root* UPDATED WORKING

Has anyone got "net.tethering.noprovisioning=true" to work? I am able to toggle portable wifi tethering set it up and connect but will pull no data .
UPDATE
Got it to work after installing Sqlite editor from GPS.
Instructions: Open Sqlite editor navigate to data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db > click on Global > add string Setting.db addition of tether_dun_required value 0
Then open root explorer and open build.prop add net.tethering.noprovisioning=true to bottom
Reboot=Profit

Have you also added the line
tether_dun_required
Value=0
To the settings database in data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases under the global tab
I'm going to try this for t mobile hope it works
It jas been mentioned before that tmobile users need to only modify the settings database. There is a thread that mentions these details 3 or 4 pages back...

doesn't the build.prop trick do the job as well?
For sprint device i did both with successful results.
For Sprint, I only added tether_dun_required, rebooted and it worked. This was after I factory reset, however. It didn't work before that for an unknown reason.

Mods Can you move to General section please.
Hey all. Are you guys using the Nexus 6 from the GPS or from Sprint? I got mine from Sprint, rooted and added lines to setting.db and build.prop factory reset and still can't even toggle Portable Wifi without getting Tethering or Hotspot Error....
My next task is to flash the factory rom direct from dev.google
I am unable to Wi-FI tether even after doing both tether_dun_required and the net.tether.noprovisioning in the build.prop. Bought straight from GPS, so not sure what I am doing wrong :/
EDIT:
It was a typo by me, the actual string is "net.tethering.noprovisioning"... "tethering" not "tether" after fixing this, all works well. I'd advise anyone struggling to just give spelling another check.

Hey all,
So I had to edit the two files in a specific order. Here's what worked for me on a Sprint Nexus 6.
- Root device
- add the additional line for build.prop
- factory reset
- check to see if you can toggle WiFi tether/hotspot from settings [if so continue]
- add line value to settings.db
- soft reboot
Hope it works.

Just to share what worked for me. It wasn't working for me initially on a Sprint N6 either, but I really didn't want to factory reset. I was able to just recreate the steps you did but replacing the factory reset with a soft reboot and now it's working.
Since I had already made the changes unsuccessfully, I did have to delete then re-add the entries since it does seem to matter the order they were done.
**edit: welp, Nevermind. It worked a few times but now I'm back to seeing the error saying I may not be subscribed.
**edit #2: I had the letter t in "true" capitalized. Changed it to lower case, reboot and it's been working for two days!
For those that don't want to edit files (but don't mind spending a couple bucks)... I can confirm that "WiFi Tether Router" app is working as well.
Settings for the N6, as provided by the dev:
Interface wlan0
Method 2
Channel 1
Encryption wpa2-psk
"No Firmware Reload" <- UNCHECKED
Verify those, reboot, then open and enable (Root required for it to reset the radio).
*Edit: clarity
From what I could gather from the thread and personal trial and error, this is what worked for me.
1. Unlock
2. Root
3. Download root explorer and sqlite editor
4. Open sqlite editor
4.a - under the files tab navigate to "data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db/global"
4.b - click the + symbol to add a new entry
4.c - In name section put "tether_dun_required" all lower case exactly as it appears here.
4.d - In value section put "0" thats the number zero.
4.e - click save and exit program.
5 Open root explorer
5.a - Under the root tab browse to "/system"
5.b - long press on file "build.prop" choose "open in text editor" choose "yes" to remount as read-write and continue
5.c - add this as a new line to the bottom of the file "net.tethering.noprovisioning=true" all lower case exactly as it appears here. Just 1 uppercase letter here can make it not work.
5.d - save and exit
6 Reboot
7 Native tethering should work now.
Hope this helps. Let me know if I missed anything. Typed this up on my Nexus 9 tethered from my Nexus 6. :laugh:
Thanks for this. Worked perfect for me.

This is what i did and worked for me and i only had to edit build.prop using the phone. I'm sure that it will work for everyone else. I'm also wondering if there is a way to edit/add the line we need for build.prop without having to root? something like "build.prop net.tethering.noprovisioning=True" in adb shell and it will add the line for us? hope someone can answer this for me please.
1. Enable developer mode (Go to Settings -> About phone, and click on the build number until the developer mode is enabled).
2. Enable USB debugging under Settings -> Developer options
3. Connect the device with a USB cable to a computer with the Android SDK platform tools installed
4. Start an adb shell: adb shell
5. In the adb shell, run this command: settings put global tether_dun_required 0
Edit the Build.Prop
6. Then open root explorer and open build.prop add net.tethering.noprovisioning=True to bottom
Thanks for the info. It works using Cricket sim

[Howto]MetroPCS Wifi Calling & SMS working

1. For those wondering why this is posted in the T-Mobile section: MetroPCS is owned by T-Mobile and as you will see through this post is very influential in it working.
2. If you got it working some other way, more power to you. please do not confuse people (because lets face it alot of people looking at this havent been on here very long or just stumbled onto the thread) by posting your "fix"
THIS IS FOR HTC ONE M9 users who have taken their devices to MetroPCS. If you are not on MetroPCS then do not try this in any way because it will not work for you. If you are on metropcs and have a T-Mobile firmware installed then try changing the apn settings from step 6-12. This will also fix people having problems turning the wifi calling switch on
YOU MUST BE ON THE MARSHMALLOW T-MOBILE FIRMWARE (3.39.531.7) FOR THIS TO WORK, MEANING MAKE SURE YOU ARE RUNNING A MARSHMALLOW ROM (NOT AOSP ROMS). THE ROM CAN BE BASED ON 3.35 for its base, this is not to be worried about. Also make sure the rom cook has T-Mobile support (i.e. ViperOne 4.3.0 etc) THESE INSTRUCTIONS INCLUDE FLASHING TO THE 3.39.531.7 FIRMWARE. MAKE SURE YOU FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS IN THIS POST AND ANY POSTS THIS ONE LINKS TO.
How to get wifi calling & sms over wifi working on MetroPCS on the m9
FIRST AND FOREMOST STEP IS TO MAKE A COMPLETE BACKUP OF YOUR DEVICE IN RECOVERY IN CASE THINGS DO NOT GO AS INTENDED!
1. Make sure you have registered an account on http://www.metropcs.com/account.html
2. Download the myMetro app from the play store here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nuance.nmc.sihome.metropcs&hl=en & download sqlite editor attached to this post and install it.
3. open the app and it should recognize you automatically, on the left upper corner of the app click the 3 lines to bring out the side menu. Click on E911 Address and follow the instructions.
4. Once you submit this information you will receive a text message saying you have filled out the e911 info for wifi calling.
5. Goto this post and follow the instructions for downloading and flashing the 3.39.531.7 firmware: http://forum.xda-developers.com/one-m9/development/3-39-531-7-nowipe-noredtext-twrp-3-0-0-1-t3326861
6. Once your phone reboots go into airplane mode. open the sqlite editor app on your phone.
7. click the files tab. then navigate to /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/
8. click on telephony.db then carriers_cache. click on the 3 dots in the upper right corner and select delete all
9. click the back button and select carriers.
click the first line, then the little pencil and change the following exactly:
Code:
Name: MetroPCS
Numeric: 310260
mcc: 310
mnc: 260
apn: fast.metropcs.com
mmsc: http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc
type: default,supl,mms,hipri,dun
protocol: IPV6
roaming_protocol: IP
state: MAKE SURE THIS FEILD IS BLANK IF IT SAYS READONLY REMOVE READONLY
10. click save
11. Take yourself out of airplane mode and goto your apn settings and make sure that the apn selected is the one that says MetroPCS with the apn set as fast.t-mobile.com
12. Go enable wifi calling via the switch in call settings. Make sure you are connected to a wifi network, then once you are sure it is working, go ahead and turn airplane mode back on, then activate ONLY WIFI. Let it connect. (For a few seconds you MAY see an invalid sim error, ignore it it will go away once the connection is made. and try making a call and sending a sms. SMS may only work with the stock app while in airplane mode. im not sure if that has changed. Anyway hope this helps. Enjoy.
Must be in airplane mode to edit the databases?
No you don't HAVE to be but if you aren't then carriers cache can repopulate while you are editing

I get no databases in telephony/databases, it's empty. Well I'm not trying to go metro but just be able to edit telephony.db. Not sure if it's one of those steps that allows one to be able to see the databases.

Can't see them in the latest tmo mm update? That is absolutely not correct. Is your system mounted read only by chance? If it is mount it read write then see if you can find it in sqlite editor

Well how will I do that? Within the App it self? I know I'm able to edit system on ES File Explorer but that app gives you the option to make system read/write. Now I'm able to see the db files in ES but not SQ.
