Ive only found a couple of topics on this, one was for dev/unlocked tether on 4.4 and the other was for locked/unrooted thether on 4.4.4. so both just missing what i need.
what is the method, or is there one, for using the native tether on an unlocked Verizon Moto X?

If you are unlocked and rooted the easiest way is to install Xposed framework and Moto Tether module.
no i dont want to do that. easy isnt my primary concern. my primary concern is cleanliness so i would perfer a real mod.
i just read this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/themes-apps/app-hotspot-entitlement-bypass-v1-1-5-9-t2705152
if im reading it correctly i can simply add "net.tethering.noprovisioning=true" to the build prop but im not yet sure if i read it right
FWIW, on the XT1049 (4.4.2) I tried it out by modifying these two properties in /system/build.prop under # ADDITIONAL_BUILD_PROPERTIES:
ro.mot.tether_dun_required=0
ro.tether.denied=false
...and then I added the line:
net.tethering.noprovisioning=true
This seemed to work in a quick test loading a webpage, but I haven't used it beyond that.

Correct. The Tool in that thread works for the XT1060 which is bootloader unlocked and rooted.
The other way is to use the wifi_tether_v3_4-experimental1.apk from https://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/
change device profile to galaxy nexus (cdma/lte)
check box: wifi-driver reload
check box: enabled routing fix
If you have troubles, its also suggested to...
check box: wifi-driver reload 2
I use the wifi-tether APK on my Dev Edtion XT1060 for Verizon (unlocked and rooted, running 4.4.4, it worked on 4.4.2 and 4.4 also)

I don't see those in the XT1060 build.prop.

I think the best method is to use Xposed Installer and the X Tether (Moto Tether) module. This allows you to use the stock Mobile Hotspot app without having to modify/replace it. As easy as this is to setup (install Xposed Installer, install the module, reboot and done) it's just as easy to revert it when the next update comes out (just disable the module and Xposed Installer).
Bonus....you now have Xposed Installer so you can grab other modules if you like (ie...Root Cloak, Gravitybox, etc..).

I agree and it is a snap to uninstall it. But for some reason, the OP doesn't want to do that - I am guessing it is a work phone maybe and he wants it to be less obvious?

Xposed does make changes to system, and some modules can caused reduced battery life.
Not everyone wants that.
Some just want to be simply stock, rooted and have the ability to tether. Xposed and its modules is extra stuff installed.
@TheWhiteChallenger
There are two "easy" and "light weight" options already posted in this thread. The app in the other thread that modifies the build.prop on the fly, and the wifi tether for root apk.
Or you can install Xposed and the Tether Module like the other suggested.

Xposed itself is a very small modification and doing the Tether module is near the same as using the modified stock tether app. I've tried both methods and the Xposed method is cleaner and much simpler. Add in the bonus of an extremely simple method to revert without the hassle of removing/renaming/restoring the stock tether app and it's near perfect.
With that done....you can be done. The added bonus is you do have the option of adding in additional modules if you like.

we'll have to agree to disagree here.
WiFi tether apk I use is a stand alone app, doesn't need to be undone to update, only runs when i launch it. etc. The app from the other thread just changes/updates the build.prop. It does nothing else. Nothing needs to be undone to update. No extra apps running, etc.
There are many options because one-size doesn't fit all.
ok...
first, can we plz stop the exposed debate be for it goes any further, those kind of answers are exactly the answers this thread was started to avoid. i appreciate the attempt to help but ur just ignoring the intent of the original question and further complicating the issue.
second,i found the solution: use build prop editor (or whatever u want to use) to add net.tethering.noprovisioning=true , delete VzwEntitlementService.apk and its .odex, done

I wouldn't delete them, just rename them. If you want to take a future OTA, you'll need to put them back.

Hello, I also have an unlocked (via sunshine) verizon moto x, currently running 4.4.2 and rooted with towelpie because I have never installed a custom rom and don't want to muck anything up. But if it's not too hard to install a custom rom I may try. Is this what you have done?
All I have done is ran sunshine and unlocked the bootloader, it's still on 4.4.2 and rooted with towelpie. Do I have write since I unlocked the boot or do I have to install a twrp to gain write? I am familiar with sqlite editer https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.speedsoftware.sqleditor&hl=en
is this something like what you used to write the command to tether?
Thank you

a text editor or notepad type app can be used to edit build.prop. SQLite or such wont work.
In theory, using Sunshine to gain unlocked bootloader should grant write protection disable, however I'm not familure enough with it to be sure. This post -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=45604505&postcount=33 should still work to allow you to check write protection status.
If you can undo TowelPieRoot (usually just rebooting, or at worst flashing system.img using mfastboot will work), you can easily flash TWRP and get a proper root and write protection disabled.
A custom rom is not needed to tether.
If you have root, and write protection disabled, two EASY ways to tether on Verizon are in Post #5 above...

Not familiar with towelpie, but if there is a way to undo the root, possibly by going to supersu and doing a full unroot, then you can regain root (with proper r/w to system) by flashing a custom recovery like CWM or TWRP and flashing the supersu.zip ( http://download.chainfire.eu/396/SuperSU/ )
So now that I'm rooted I installed the S6 default browser, SBrowser_3.0.38 but I still don't get the option in fingerprint verification to use Web sign in. Any of you out there know what steps to take next to enable this feature?
Thanks,
Jon
It has to be baked into the framework, a custom rom should do the trick.
Someone already fixed it....

I'm rooted 5.1.1 and wanted to try and activate Android Pay since my bank is supported. Found some workarounds people were posting online, but they seem to not work for certain devices/roms. Just wondering if anyone here has had success.
Nope, I've tried everything short of flashing from ftf. I'm also curious if anyone's had luck.

Tried rootcloak for hiding root to Android pay?
Disable SuperSU in settings, setup android pay, re-enable SuperSU - worked for me.
Android Pay + Root?

Just tried this and couldn't get it to work.... can you give some more detail since I might be doing something wrong. Thanks! I unchecked the setting for (enable Superuser) is that correct?

Yes, that's exactly what I did. Are you receiving 'unable to add card' or 'could not verify system' (something like that.)
Guys i had this issue and then i flashed a PRF zip and set up android pay and it worked fine. Then i enabled xposed and all i think it came with supersu but i didnt use any root apps before setting up Android pay. But now i tried to use it and it said my card was not supported... maby my bank??It worked fine on Google Wallet. So i deleted card and was gonna re add it but now cant get past the error message again. I have rootcloak and disable device check xposed modules still no worky. Please let me know if you find a fix.

S- Health is disabled on my s7 because I tripped Knox after rooting. I am aware there is a method that changes the build.prop file to enable it, but safety net does not pass after I change it. Is there any way to enable S-health with magisk?
Thanks in advance!
Hey guy, I'm trying to do that. I'm waiting to someone help me using resetprop.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/how-to-change-build-prop-value-using-t3710370
i am using note 9 with twrp and magisk installed i want to use google wallet but its asking me to encrypt device.. i tried to encrypt it but its keeps saying encryption failed and reset device even i tried to reset but its still showing same.. so i want to know is it possible with magisk to simply bypass encryption on apps which required it? i mean how can i run apps which require encryption with enabling encryption?

Yes, posible, try this module -
Fake encryption
Is there any way to fake that system has encryption turned on? I do not want to encrypt my phone but my local bank app need encryption in order to use finger print login. Is there way to fake encryption to that app?
