I rooted my at&t note 3 with kingoroot. My question is: if I freeze tethering provisions in titanium backup can they (at&t) detect I'm using my tethering?

There are SOOO many ways a carrier can tell what and where your data is going. Freezing the tethering provisions will enable the tethering feature on your phone. It will not hide your data from your carrier.
I have unlimited data on my attention account so as long as they can't see I'm tethering I'm good.

If your provider see more traffic going through your connection than the phone alone would normally generate then they will assume you are tethering and change your plan and bill you accordingly.
I have hit 16 gigs before. With out root.

Like we said, IF your provider checks. Many are cracking down on data leeches as it is costing them bandwidth that is not being paid for. AT&T comes to mind as they have even announced they will start doing it as of last month or so.
Thanks for all your help guys

GUYS (and GALS)!
There is an application in the Market called Quick Settings. If you have Froyo, this application has a feature that hacks the built-in Hotspot app and makes it work without carrier requirements!! I have tested it, and it works GREAT so far. Give it a shot!

I had the problem too. Needed to factory reset, not restore anything, and the wifi tether for root app was working again.
Needs specific settings though. I'll share tomorrow sometime if someone else doesn't first. It's easier to paste from the pc.

They got the native working cuz they can't use the WiFi tether app.
We got a modified WiFi tether app to use.

Foxfi works fine for me. When you get the pop up telling you to contact att press the home button instead of tapping ok. The hot spot stays active this way

It stays active but did you actually connect to it and surf the Internet?

Yesterday I tried feverishly to get foxfi to work with no luck even doing it exactly as op had done. So now I see this thread and figure okay ill try again.... and guess what.... it worked... The only thing I can think of that I didn't do yesterday is I rebooted the phone this morning. ..

I use EasyTether and it works great for my needs.
You have to enable USB Debugging mode in order for it to work. I had a heck of a time finding it, so here is a quick howto...
From home, press "Apps" menu, press "Settings", press "General" tab, press "About Device", press "Build number" seven consecutive times and you should get messages about having "Developer Mode" being turned on. That's it!
Hit back and you should now see a new "Developer options" selection in the menu. Press "Developer options" and just check mark "USB debugging" if you want to enable it.
Does EasyTether support wi-fi tethering or mobile hotspot?
$.01 via NOTE 3

No, only USB and Bluetooth... I haven't found a non-root solution for WiFi yet.
You can Bluetooth tether it to another android device/tablet...
FWIW, Foxfi is working on my AT&T GN3. As others have said, just hit the home button when the popup appears. Also, I've noticed when connecting with my laptop, full internet isn't available for the first 30 seconds or so, so just give it time...

yep confirmed working with foxfi, the thing is I always need to setup the password everytime I activate the foxfi to work the secured wpa2

Do you need root to use Foxfi for tethering? This is to use the note 3 as a hotspot right?....meaning that I am connecting my other tablets to the note 3 and using its lte data?

Did you guys try any tethering widget?? for AT&T Galaxy S4 wifi tethering doesn't work directly but if you install any tethering app it will work.
Here is the one I've tried from Play store and its free.
'Tethering Widget' by HI-DEVELOP
Install the app and look for 'Tethering (full)' .
once you add this widget click thering widget(make sure you click the Wifi icon not the USB icon'.
This should enable wifi tethering.
Let me know if it works or not..
Now that we have root, can we just freeze tetheringProvsion under titanium backup & use the native app?
I have the Galaxy Note III on T-Mobile, but it's AT&T branded. Are there any workarounds to get mobile hotspotting through my carrier without rooting?
Give the free version of Foxfi a try.
There's a data cap, but you can just disconnect and reconnect then keep going.

I just update the my account app and i see that it tells you if your phone is root or not, is this for t-mobile to check and void your warranty? ??
I noticed that too...Im guessing thats exactly what its for. I froze the app, backed it up, and uninstalled it as soon as i saw this.
