Amy ideas how to make it work now that we have root? Doesn't work with Wanam. Tried a tether provisioning app that was hacked for the s4, didn't work. If you freeze the provisioning app it force closes settings and doesn't turn tethering on.
Thanks
Bob

Install Xposed Framework and download a module named X Tether. It will allow the native wifi tether to function.

I'm running gingeritis 3d and I'm trying to connect my laptop to my phone. The included wifi tether app doesn't work.
The verizon app has always worked for me so I was wondering if anyone had the apk.
I tried googling one but after downloading and attempting to install via root explorer I got app not installed.

In 3 days you won't be able to use it for free anymore so I'd look for other options if I were you

Hi Guys.
I rooted my Droid Bionic just now and Im going nuts trying to "freeze" the mobile hotspot from verizon. Has anyone had any luck finding it and killing it?
Thanks.
What "from" are you on ?

Have you even installed Titanium Backup yet?

I do have it.
This might be a dumb question but why would you want to freeze the mobile hotspot? Can't it be toggled on/off in settings?
i think he wants it out of his app drawer, or maybe he's having the same problem i'm having,weather i use opengarden, barnacle, or any of the other tethering apps, i get an icon in my notification that the "verizon" app is trying to use wifi tether
Just get some app that freezes apps. Titanium can do the job. I got my hotspot froze.

You cannot freeze it. It is buried inside some other system program, I don't remember which. You could find it and edit it out, but that is pretty advanced stuff.
He wants to freeze it because it is ALWAYS running. It will drive you insane if you use a task manager widget.
The only thing I know to work is a custom ROM. None of them have it, but you can use AOSP Wifi tether. Try Eclipse.

I wonder if this will work. I got the app installed, but my main stuck point in the set it downloading the firefox extension.

I haven't tried this yet but I have tried other bluetooth like tethering apps and it almost always crashes as if there is some library missing on the gear that it needs.
I was able to get the app installed and running on both devices. No success with internet sharing though...

Part of the issue is that open garden requires proxies in Firefox. Sadly you cannot access the settings to manually configure them. OG does have an auto add but only if you can access the internet.:banghead:

Title says it! For no root adblocking on 4g.
Try this, works for me but you have to configure it per Wi-Fi connection and it only works on Wi-Fi. Yes it says Samsung Galaxy S3. You also have to get the Adblock Plus apk and side load it.

Right. Click my signiture!
I have a GS6 64GB running the latest OTA and rooted on Ping Pong Root. I am trying to automate starting my wifi hotspot and the third party apps don't seem to work so I figured I would use tasker to input a couple of taps but the command won't run. Wondering if anyone else has run in to this. I have given tasker root privilege and enabled its accessibility setting. The circle in the tasker UI goes red and it never completes the task. I never had an issue on my GS5. I tried the swipe command as well with the same outcome. I also opened a terminal window to run the command and it said the tap command didn't exist. I ran the swipe command in terminal and it worked but taskers run shell > input swipe didn't. Any help would be great. Ultimately I want a way to get Wifi hotspot to turn on when it sees my cars bluetooth. I have AT&T so i need to swipe on then verify so it is a couple steps.
I've been trying to do the exact same thing with no luck. I replicated the same thing on my s4 that I recently got running lollipop. Not sure if its a Samsung lollipop issue or a lollipop issue in general.
The only thing I was able to do to make it easier was add a quick settings toggle to enable it. Makes it a little easier. I just wish I could get rid of the warning about turning wifi off and having to tap ok.

After doing some research I found its an issue with new 64 bit devices. Anyway I found a work around using secure settings plugin. The input tap command works if you use the secure settings plugin and put the command in there.

That's good to know. After I was able to accomplish that. It just the secure setting method to activate WiFi hotspot and the tasked WiFi tether function and they both work now. I didn't notice am update to either but I'm glad it work now.

I'm curious what you did to make the wifi hotspot functions work in securesettings? I'm rooted with pingpong but if I run a task to enable wifi hotspot it fails every time.

It works in secure settings and just the wifi tether in tasker. I'm not really sure what I did. Used the input tap method to activate it. And tried after that and it worked. Didn't try it right before that tho. I'm running stock rooted oe2 (I think that's it, the update). I have the WiFi tether mod installed but that's only to get rid of the verify process it did when I turn it on. It didn't work after that I tried.

I just flashed clean rom and it no longer works. It must have been a mod I made. I wanted to try something. The wifi kept cutting in and out on me for some reason
