Does straightalk support mobile hotspot?.. I currently have my Note on gophone but would prefer the cheaper prices on straightalk but i wouldnt want to lose the mobile hotspot feature...thanks
I've used the mobile hotspot and have had no problems on straight talk. I was switching internet providers so didn't have cable internet for 7 days
Turn on my mobile hot spot from the note and I was good to go with my laptop.

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?

Foxfi doesn't work on and it connects but surfing the Internet is a no go we need an alternative.

Yea with a grandfathered unlimited plan so an actual tethering plan from at&t isn't offered to me. I'd be more than happy to pay the small fee if it were even offered though...

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...
Subscribed for Samsung Wifi HotSpot Option = )
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

Confirmed working with FoxFi without issues with password with everything saving.

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?
Today i was trying to connect to the mobile data and I can't

@elfabio00
Check your apn settings, must match with your carrier apn
settings --> mobile data --> Access point name ---> <apn of your carrier> ---> <check all info are correct, refer to your carrier website>

So, I'm using ARHD with Sense 6 (HTCdevs unlocked and S-ON) . My HTC One is an AT&T version. The problem was that I lost my data service on EDGE (2G) and I see a change in settings menu: "GSM/WCDMA/LTE Automatic" changed to "2G/3G/4G automatic". I would like to recover the mobile data and see the stock config. ( "GSM/WCDMA/LTE Automatic")
I was seeing the *#*#4636#*#* and I clicked "USA Bands" and more later "Automatic" for 2G/3G Frecuency Bands menu. :what:
Help! and thanks!

Does anybody get it to work on WiFi tethering?
Mine is working. It checks for the service(which is part of my service plan) and then activates. No issues.

After installing the latest version of pure nexus, I no longer can get my mobile data to work. Phone was originally on Verizon but is now on straight talk.

Did you check for a Verizon APN and/or its setting in mobile networks?
The only APN that is available is VZWINTERNET and it is checked.

Okay, but have you checked if the settings are correct? You can always flash the Latest MM radio to see if the issue is gone.
Which settings? I'm not sure what I'm doing. Kinda new to this.

If you press the VZW apn you get into the settings, compare these with the settings as shown on the VZW support page (Google).
I think I got it. Had to change the APN name from VZWINTERNET to TRACFONE.VZWENTP.
