Hello community,
I have searched and tried and done everything possible. I am currently a new HTC One user. Just bought a TMO USA version of the device. I have rooted the device also. Still on the stock rom with bulletproof kernel btw. Is there an easy method to unlock the APN's while on stock rooted rom? Or can someone suggest a good Rom that still is stock but with unlocked APNs?
THanks and thanks will be given to any suggestions.

Are you talking about WiFi tethering?
If so you can Google then download fdroid then do a search for WiFi tether since you are rooted.
It allows me to tether my laptop or tablet on trips.

go to play store and download a wifi tether app. the one i use is called wifi tether for root users by Muller, Lemons, Buxton. It works flawless .. the only thing is that only pc's can use the net .... you won't be able to connect any cellphone to your phone.
Thanks so much fellas but I finally figured it out last night. I downloaded APNMANAGER from play store and was able to remove the hidden "tether" APN that is in the stock ROM since I have root.

The title really says it all - If I use a custom ROM like Cognition for example, do I lose the ability to freely use the ~20,000 (their claim) at&t wifi hotspots? I believe the stock ROM has wifi access info hard coded - Not sure if ROM creators managed to port that over... THanks.
Yes You do lose it.
Try the att account app. There is an option to use att wifi. I have not tried it.

That sucks - Does anyone know if this is something that's being worked on? I guess I have to stick to stock, root it and use titanium bkup to remove as much at&t bloat as is safely possible...

How come I was able to use it at Starschmucks the other day? I'll have to test it again though next time I go.
I don't have the app on my phone (rooted, bloatware removed, etc.).
I have used at&t hotspots with no issues. I simply connect to the available wireless network.

No, you don't.
With the ATT hotspot thing I believe you avoid having to go through the log-in page where you agree to their terms and conditions. But you can absolutely log on. You just have to do that first.
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.
Root ur phone ur missing out on so much

Thanks for the replies!

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.

I can work wireless tether perfectly on my (rooted) tbolt... but I don't use the stock Verizon app.

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,
I have no issues with my wireless tether.

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?????

Same here, I'm at 60gigs and counting. I think the most I've use back in Jan was 145 gigs. My wireless tether works just fine without an issue. Something must be wrong with script on those peoples phones that can't use wireless tether on rooted Tbolt.

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,
Stat

I've heard of a few people receiving the device for Sprint. Has anyone rooted/unlocked the bootloader and tried tethering?
Search function. Yes. It works fine. Root, install WiFi tether, generic jb setting, routing fix and miss(or whatever) clamping. And it works just fine.

Good to know.
Or you could try FoxFi, which doesn't require root. Not sure whether it works on the One, would love to hear whether anyone has tried it. http://foxfi.com/
Hopefully getting my ONE on Friday. I have to use tether for work everyday, so good to know I can use it right away.
I'll keep an eye on this thread for any other good methods. Thanks guys

If you are ok with Bluetooth tethering, then FoxFi works - but you need a PdaNet client on the connecting device. I've tested running FoxFi on my One, with PdaNet Tablet (which is free) on my Android tablet, and it worked like a champ.
If you are trying to connect to a Windows computer or Mac, you need the PdaNet Desktop Client, which can be found here: http://pdanet.co/a/
I have not yet been able to get this connection to work, when I try to pair PdaNet on the laptop to the phone PdaNet gives me an error message - I have a request in to PdaNet support.

See my earlier post regarding Foxfi and Pdanet. No root required, but it only works over Bluetooth, no wifi.

It works just using jb0 generic. I also enabled access control. Didn't have to mess with the other stuff.
I believe that wi tether will work fine for a lap top but if you want to tether a tablet junning JB that is where you will have an issue I will try this blutooth
I have unlimited data but no WiFi connection at home, I want to play blitz brigade but the old trick of leaving WiFi enabled but not connected doesn't work. There's a method using WiFi tether on the net but it doesn't work. Can I spoof a WiFi or tether to my own connection? If not is anyone interested in devving a WiFi faker and I will test? IPhone has had this ability forever, android being a much superior OS must be capable

My ROM spoofs lots of things. Perhaps it can already do what you want if you configure the permission settings correctly.

Combining pDroid into a Stock ROM is more difficult and is not possible with the auto-patcher software. In your position, I would flash Wenque's ROM and see if you can tweak the permissions to do what you want - if it works then you have a reason to investigate further.

I have an unlocked att note 3.
I have the firekat v6 custom installed.
I used to be able to tether in jb by foxfi but not the regular ui.
Now in kitkat i cant tether at all. Knowing that i bought an unlock code and i live in africa with a completely different carrier that doesnt restrict tethering.
Any help, i have tried many random gimmicks such as uninstalling and freezing the tethering provision and automation to no avail.
Any help would be appreciated
