[Q] Galaxy Note 3 Tether Options for Root

I have root now and would like to get Tethering working. I have rooted all my android phones in the past and used Tether apps but have yet to find any that will work that I have used in the past. I have tried root packages Wifi Tether Router,, did not work. the one from trevor.e.. @gmail.com
See my settings below .
I tried wifi_tether_v3_3-beta2.apk. did not work.

Can you please let me know of anyway to Wifi Tether with Root on this Galaxy Note 3 N9005A that you have successfully configured to work.
I don't foxi or any like it. Please Help I appreciate it.

I just used the built in tethering option of android. When the AT&T pop up comes up just hit the home button. Then go back to the settings and it will work.

Not on AT&T without adding the feature and charging additionally for it.
I know Verizon does it for free after the FCC case about the LTE bandwidth.
I've always done the workaround with the wife tether apk... I'll keep trying and searching.

Like other people said, use FoxFi or the native android app. When the box comes up that says call ATT don't push OK, just hit the home button. You now have a wireless access point.

Not sure if this is an old trick or not but hitting home doesn't work. The phone says I have an active wifi network but it is not broadcasting (AT&T is killing any broadcasting).

I wonder why we got this error and others didn't, especially after I hard reset the device. Must be something to do with rooting? I also had the 'custom' sign on bootup which i removed using wanam. Could it be connected?
Also, when I hard reset and tried to SQLite it was the TASK MANAGER that blocked the editing of a system file. came up with a shield logo, but it wasn't Lookout. When I clicked on the message, which said it was safe to delete SQLITE, there was no option to 'ignore' or bypass it.

I'm pretty sure that was knox. Did it say "prevention information"? I disabled it according to designgears' second post in his rooting thread, but still get the code 14 error, just no shield this time --
"I am getting a "Prevention Information" popup after running a root app, how do I disable it?
From terminal emulator or adb shell as root, run; pm disable com.sec.knox.seandroid
Or freeze the Knox apps with Titanium Backup."

I have all the knox stuff and lookout deleted and still get the error message 14. I also tried the app from the play store and still get error. I really want to figure this out cause turning data on and off in settings is a pita. I'd even settle for the data toggle in the power off menu.

We are in parallel. I froze knox and it didn't help.
What's odd to me is that other people did not have this problem...

Thanks for moving your question. Just want to keep the development thread clean.
here is a chance that your phone is not sending the correct BT tether profile so that your gear can find it. If all else fails check out my tutorials. If you need more help after that let us know!

You should have the profile enabled.

you say from your gear you had the option to enable the internet even before you turn your bt on? i might have to reinstall the null or maybe find a different rooted rom for my phone?

The option has been enabled from all null as well. Unless like he said.. The profile from the phone wouldn't support this option.
Come to think of it.. Might be the way ur profile on ur phone gets set with gear.

That means your phone does not support it fully. So you have 2 options.
Option 1) use 3rd party options like PdaNet+
Option 2) find a rom for your phone that supports it correctly.
See my tutorial for in for on 3rd party option. And yes it does work for Google play. But must be using null_17 and enable Network Spoofer

On the gear, enable network spoofer WIFI. IF you need for info check out this thread. (Includes Screenshots)

I've decided to include PdaNet with the next version of null, iv also optimized it for the gear display to fit nice.
Stay tuned for build 18 release.

UPDATED 5-12-14 T-Mobile native wifi hotspot hack

After reading through the G2 forums I found this and it also worked for the T-mobile G Flex.http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=51213845&postcount=43 I couldn't get the other method posted here to work at all. All credit goes to xda member mrgodai. Follow the instructions in the link provided and a script will automatically change the value to 0 on boot. You will still need to change the user agent to something mobile or in my case Safari browser. This only allows you to go over your tethering limit. If you don't have unlimted data then this will only work until you reach your data cap.https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/user-agent-switcher-for-c/djflhoibgkdhkhhcedjiklpkjnoahfmg?hl=en-USAlso make sure to edit your APN scroll down to the bottom where it says APN protocol: and make sure it is IPv4 not IPv6 and add "dun" to the line for APN type: default,supl,mms,dun
Outdated method below
Prerequisites
1. Rooted T-mobile G Flex
2. SQlite Editor app($2.99) probably a free alternative out there
3. Hotspot Widget from Google Play
Instructions
1. Open SQlite Editor look in - /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db then click global scroll down to field "tether_dun_required" edit the original value set 1 and change it to 0.
Note: Every time the phone reboots the original value defaults back to 1 so you will need to change the value back to 0 every time the phone reboots.
2. Only enable tether through the widget that you downloaded earlier. For some reason if you use the official t-mobile widget it won't work.
3. I don't have a working G Flex to test but you may have to use UA spoofer for chrome and set the browser to safari or something mobile.

Confirmed working on tmobile gflex i found this in g2 forum as well awesome . Only thing is u dont need the widget or at least i dont it works everytime right from the settings menu

THANK YOU

So if done right you should have unlimited wifi tether? And i downloaded thw widget and once i activate the widegt it turns on mobile hotspot. That is tmobiles hotspot correct?
---------- Post added at 03:45 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:43 AM ----------
I only ask because i only have 2.5 gigs for hotspot. And if i did this hack correctly i should not have unlimited?

If u do this hack u will have unlimited unresricted native tethering u wont get blocked afyer the 2.5
Sent from my LG-D959 using Tapatalk

Sweet! Thank you.

Yes you can over your limit with this hack

it goes through t-mobiles native hotpot app but some reason it crashes for me when I activate it through their official widget. That's why I use the one from the play store even though it opens up t-mobiles hotspot.

I did this hack when first posted and I have been re-doing after each boot. I have been monitoring the field setting "1" to a "0" to ensure it sticks and i like you said it does not stick after boot. Hence why I have been re-doing after each boot like instructed to in the OP. My issue is according to my T-Mobile account apk, that comes on the device, my hotspot tethering data has still increased from 2.3 g's to now 2.9 g's. It doesn't seem to be masking my use of the tethering. I'm using a hotspot widget toggle from the play store as instructed. I was under the impression that this would mask the use of tethering. Is this not correct or is this just to be able to use hotspot after the allotted amount that comes with which ever data plan you have?

Discovered this for my T-Mobile account apk to not see my data usage from hotspot ( in other words to mask using the hotspot) I had to go to my APN settings in your system settings/network and tethering/mobile networks/ access point names(APN) and create a new APN due to the unavailability to edit the stock one. I added new APN with everything set the same as the "T-Mobile LTE" apn that is set as default. Only changed is the "APN TYPE" add ",dun" to the end. So it should read as this
APN TYPE - default,mms,supl,dun
Make sure that you don't edit any other field and that the APN Protocol (just below APN TYPE) is set to IPV4.

I don't know. Went to mobile networks under settings and I've use 14 gbs of data under hotspot. Went to the t-mobile app and saw i reached the limit but that was before the hack was applied.

Changed the APN anyway like you said just in case but like I said I used 14 gb of data under hotspots. If t-mobile knew you were over your limit wouldn't you get the upsell page?

Does the T-Mobile g flex have an option to turn on hotspot in the settings? If so, someone please send me a deodexed lgsettings.apk. and a deodexed services.jar and I will hack this for everyone so you don't have to mess with editing anything anymore

I have a tethering plan so I don't know if tethering worked because the mod or my plan. The T-Mobile had the same lines in it as sprint... So combined with the apn changes usually needed on T-Mobile I assumed it should work. I was going to upload it so some without tethering could verify, but you seem to know what you're doing so I can just give you the unmodded versions and if you want my version as well. Whatever works for you.

Tethering and Hotspot

Okay so tethering and Hotspot works on my phone if I use a separate app, but how come when I use the stock one, it looks like this? Also, the option from the settings disappeared after doing something with root. Thanks
