Awesome. I like this.

Because the name is rediculous.
EDIT: I just got this to work and it seems great! To get it to work you need to press menu while in the app and go to settings. At the top of setting press change device-profile and choose Samsung Fascinate from the list and you are good to go (atleast it was for me).

thats cause they use ad hoc tethering which stock android doesnt support. You need infrastructure tethering which this apparently does....although I forgot to test it last night.

Exactly, i've tried some tweaks and apps which did not work until i stumbled
on this version. Google search, best thing ever.

FYI - This works for wifi on the Kindle whereas the old tether didn't. Make sure you go to settings and select the "device profile" to Samsung Fascinate.

Works great.....good find.

Thanks for the tip! This works great! Been using the vzw hotspot hack but i would keep having data issues while using it. This is working flawless! Even played 2 hrs of Black ops on my ps3 with zero issues using this. I immediately uninstalled my old wireless tether v2.07 cuz although infrastructure was supposedly supported with it, I could never get it to work. Anyway, thanks a bunch for the find and sharing this with us.

Sweet, thank you OP! I was trying to get wireless tether to work for 3 days now.

Great find, man. This works so much better for me than barnacle. Thanks for sharing.

Won't launch the Hotspot for me. Keeps giving me "Started with errors" and then in the log say it can't load the firmware

Why not just use the Verizon 3g mobile hotspots with the help of qpst.

Only issue I've had with this, is that it will randomly shut my phone off. It's weird. No reboot. Just turned off.

Same here. After about an hour of tethering using this app, it will reboot randomly. Kind of annoying when im in the middle of something
But works well other than that.

Best wifi tethering app for un-rooted Thunderbolt?

Hello,
My TB is not rooted. What do you think is the best app for doing wireless tethering? Setting up a Wi-Fi hotspot, I guess.... I'm using a windows 7 PC.

Just do a search for "tether" in the Google Play Store.. I'm rooted.. but the free "clockworkmod (no root)".. looked like it might do the trick, it uses Usb instead of WiFi.

I found the stock app from Verizon to work well before they axed the ability to use it without paying for the service. It was very easy to set up the SSID and password and even monitor the connected devices IIRC.

I tried out clockworkmod's Tether. It works pretty well, although it does disconnect every once in a while, and it's USB, so my bandwidth is limited by that. Also, it's not as convenient as WiFi.
ArmyAg08-
Yes, this is kind of the type of thing I'm looking for. Not Verizon though.

I'm not quite ready to root this phone yet. But when I do, what would you recommend for a WiFi tether?

Have you tried 1-Click Wifi Tether No Root?
If you go to the play store and search no root tether, it should be the second option down.
I know several people who use this and are satisfied with it.
If you do root your phone in the future, I recommend either WiFi Tether for Root Users or Barnacle WiFi Tether.

I usually use the default one on the custom ROM or wireless tether which both work very nicely and run smoothly.

1-Click Wifi Tether No Root apparently does not work on HTC phones. If anyone knows a workaround to this, please let me know, as 1-Click Wifi Tether No Root seems to be a great app.
And thanks for the info about the rooted apps -- I may try them in the future

I forgot about that. Lol. They don't have HTC phones.
Anyways, just search no root tether in play store and try what's available.
Good luck.

Unfortunately, there seems to be NO way to utilize the WiFi Hotspot Tether on HTC Thunderbolt anymore, rooted or not.
All of the existing WIFI tether apps do not do anything on HTC Thunderbolt. I've tried them all, on multiple ROMs.
The ONLY things I've found that still work are the PRO versions of EasyTether and PdaNet, via USB cord.
I'm still trying to get the bluetooth tether for PdaNet to work, but so far without much success.
I can't wait until next year to get a new phone that I can actually root and wifi-hotspot again.

According to the Foxfi app it's an HTC block not TB specific. That being said I blue tooth tether with no issues at all both CM7 and with Sense roms. I don't even use a special app with CM7 just make devices discoverable and pair, BAM! some native Bluetooth tether automatically kicks in on CM7 and with Sense I use the Foxfi app and follow the blutooth tether instructions. Make sure your devices have tun.ko installed (use tun.ko installer app in the play store). My tablet didn't (asus transformer tf101) so I had to and root is required to do it.

Just checked and Open garden teather works fine on my rooted Tbolt.
It had tried a number of others in the past and they had issues tethering my Asus tablet. Open Garden was about the only one that worked.

What has changed that does not allow tethering? My friend said she was able to tether all the time and now she can't. Says she is on the same ROM (bamf) and has not made any changes,

For some reason I cannot wifi tether either. I am running Synergy. None of the wireless tethering apps I have tried have worked for about a week now. I used to use Wireless Tether with no issues. Now I have to go back to PDANet and USB. Any ideas anyone?????

Hi there guys,
Which ROMS are you running on your TBolts? I am running Synergy, and like I say it was working up until a couple of weeks back, and now no go. Perhaps I need to switch ROMS or something. I find it strange that several of us are having issue. At any rate, it is very interesting indeed.
Thanks in advance,

Atrix HD and Foxfi

Foxfi is a great program where you can use wifi tethering without root. I have used it before on other devices but with the Atrix HD when I open it and another computer connects to my Wifi signal then the phone reboots.
I have read on another website that 2 other people are having the same problem and was wondering if anyone else is. I sent an email to the developer of Foxfi but haven't received a response.
Just wondering if anyone knows of a way to get this program working without it causing a reboot or if there is another program that works just as well?

No problems here. Why not use the native hotspot functionality. It works very well.

I tried foxfi and it also rebooted. when I turn on the native hotspot, it immediately turns it off and stated my plan does not include tethering.

Anyone tried using bluetooth tethering using Foxfi? I would like to use my iPad tethered through Atrix HD. However, if bluetooth tethering is not gonna work, I don't want to jailbreak my iPad.

Doesnt your settings fc after you turn on the tethering?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using Tapatalk

It works, no problem. So before I give you the answer, please be prepared to smack yourself in the head.
Ok then, first why would you freeze tether when you are trying to use it?
Ok, when you disable tethering provision in Wanam xposed, you can use the att mobile hot spot.
Turn the att mobile hot spot on, hit OK. (if it goes off, turn it on again) When you see the att verify box, hit the home button, do not hit OK.
Open the app again, hot spot should be on, configure your access point.
Enjoy!

I found that ruebarb's method works but it gives me a message about tethering not being enabled for my account. When I freeze provisioning in TiBu I get a force close.

Teathering isn't enabled for your ATT account, that's the point of this work around, you are not paying $20 to use your own data. This mod can't hack the ATT system. You just go around it. If you hit the ok on the ATT box, it closes the app.

Indeed.
I was just saying that the difference between not freezing and freezing whilst using your instructions will yield a notification or a force close, respectively.

Folks don't freeze tethering to use the method I listed

Here's how it works.
The way I got it to work is I disabled the tethering provision via Wanamm...
Then - when I enable tethering I also get the popup box for verification, but when the contact AT&T message and ok button comes up, just hit the home button instead...
Wifi tethering will remain on and active without needing the verification. You can then go back in and configure it and whatever no problem. :good:

WORKING T-MOBILE HOTSPOT w/ hidden menu option UPDATED.

I discovered this while digging around in the hidden menu. Accessed via dial pad in your phone apk by dialing 3845#*959#. (959 due to the 3 numbers in the device variant). Other carriers /variants use their last 3 accordingly. I don't know if this works for all carriers or not. I only have a D959.
First off let's learn why the "tether dun" option by using sqlite editor and changing the 1 to 0 doesn't work nor stick after reboot.
Carriers seem to have become wise to this hack since its been around from the first Moto RAZR XT912. And probably before that. Seems they have found a way to still tell whether or not you're tethering by monitoring the data stream and seeing the desktop user agent or style that is used by laptops and desktop PCs and/or other tablets use when tethering off of a devices hotspot.
So with that said there needs to be a way for carriers to disable this feature. So I went probing through my D959's hidden menu and found the option. I'm posting screen shots (hopefully in order of the method used) as well as my account page showing my hotspot usage has ran out at 3 gigs free that comes with my unlimited data.
I'm not responsible for your device or lack of following instructions to a "t". Its your phone and your choice to try or not.
With that said here we go:
First create new APN in your " access point names settings" to mirror that of your stock APN. And add to the APN type line - ",admin,dun"
The do the following :
1. Go to dail pad type in "3845#*959#
(The menu comes up)
2. Scroll to find option named " settings" click it
(Another menu pops up )
3. Scroll to find option "up sell url". Click it
(A smaller menu window pops up)
4. Chose " TMUS hastetheringoption". Click it
5. Back out like normal. I don't know if this matters but I use a 3rd party hotspot toggle as to not enter the T-Mobile hotspot apk.
6. Profit
Sorry to those of you who have trying with no luck due to I left out a step. My fault I apologize.

UPDATE: I have been using this script from the LG G2 forums on Jellybean 4.2.2 and all has been working great. Smanager works great at changing the 1 back to a 0 on boot. So no more having to do it manually.
LG G2 forums with script -
But since I've moved up to KitKat and still using said script, I got a message stating I've used all available data allowed for my WiFi hotspot. What? All available data? How could this be when I'm clearly changing the "tether_dun_required" -1 to a 0? Well I don't know if T-Mobile got wise to us or what. But I found another line in the same settings using sqlite editor called
"Package_verify_enabled". It also has a 1 (for true) out beside it. So being that I need my hotspot for my son to play xbox360 live, I changed it to a "0" . and what do ya know? I now have working WiFi hotspot and I tested this mod out for the entire Florida St. vs Louisville game tonight while streaming it to my Nexus 7 (2013) at work so all the co workers and I could watch what we thought and what seemed to be a Florida St. ∆$$ whipping but sadly enough Florida St. Pulled it out at the end. But on a good note, the WiFi hotspot hack still works.
Good luck

Yyyeeeaaaa, this still won't work for me. I guess I'm not as fortunate as you or I'm doing something wrong. I actually haven't seen anyone confirm that this works though (unless I missed it which very well could be the case) so feel free to chime in if you know something haha.

After reading my original post I left out a step. Make your own APN setting and add to "APN type" ",admin,dun". And reboot then follow original post.

Hello, I tried this and it didnt work so I deleted the new APN I created but ever since my otherwise amazing data speed and connection has been inconsistent and spotty. Even looses signal sometimes which has never happened. Speeds are also not as good as they were.
I set the " TMUS hastetheringoption" option as advised.
My question is what is the default setting so I can go back to it as I believe it has something to do with what I am experiencing.
Thanks!

I believe its TMUS dataplanrequired. I don't understand why your signal is spotty and loss of signal. The more I mess with these settings I'm realizing that all this has done is create another option in the settings storage file where the other method of changing the tether fun required 1 to a 0 is. The other file I know have ,mind you im not sure how I got it, but I believe from testing one or several of the upsell URL options. That now has that tether dun required set at 0, not by me, and sticks through reboot. Here's a screenshot of said settings option that used to not be there. Let me know if this is just me or if others have noticed this now showing up.
Well actually I lost the pics when I flashed back to stock after a weekend long brick. But I managed to some how have screen shots saved to Dropbox of some build.props that I didn't notice before. The other settings option was seen thru sqlite editor when used to change that 1 to a 0 when I clicked on "settings storage" there used to be only one choice then a few days before I bricked and flashed back to stock I noticed another one called settings BCPM I think or something like that. It had all the same build.props in it except the tether fun required was defaulted to 0 already. Which kept me from having to set it or from going to the upsell URL again. The "BCPM" may not be the correct letters but it was something like that. Sorry for the delayed response also I've been bricked all weekend and trying to get it back lol

Followed the instructions and it still doesn't work for me. How do you get the tether dun required to stay at 0 through reboot. I still have to edit the value every time I reboot. My build.prop looks just like yours.
