Tethering issues - Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo Q&A, Help & Troublesh

When I turn on the hotspot after a little while I get an ! next to the 4G bars and loose connection.
Is there any way to fix this?

Are you on stock, and if so do you have a plan that allows tethering?
Are you on custom ROM, if so which one?
Are you on Verizon or some other carrier?
The information you gave is very sparse.
Looking through other posts it seems you are on Verizon and may be on stock ROM, but you need to confirm.

On verizon with a stock rom flashed with tether enable.
Was working for the last 3 months until a couple of days ago.

VoLTE on AT&T Note 3 with T-Mobile sim?

I use AT&T note 3 on t-mobile. 4.4.2 official AT&T kitkat rom. Rooted (couldn't get hotspot working without root)
I don't think there's a way to flash T-Mobile rom on my phone, but wonder if there's a way to get volte to work on this phone on t-mobile.
Do I need to wait until AT&T sends out volte update and will it work with T-Mobile? Is there a chance I won't be able to root\use hotspot after such update?
Can I tweak anything to make it work?
Currently, when I get a call while hotspot is on, network switches to 4G and never switches back to LTE until the hotspot is turned off... and the only way to get around this issue is to forward calls (or switch hotspot off and then back on)
I know T-Mobile is pushing out volte and people on xda say it works in my area.
Thanks

No tmobile data on Unlocked Vs980 4.4.2 what's the Deal?

There's 100 people out there trying to use vs980 on Tmobile,we see many posts prior to kk update of people showing images and giving detailed ways to enable lte or Any data period,
As it stands now for some,reason vzw g2 will not allow any tmobile data let alone lte or hspa on the kk vs98024A firmware '
Someone had got to know its either something to do with stock vzw firmware or some,kind of block or what? No apn settings In this world work While on official kk
But when the jb 11a and 12b was around stuff worked
Is there a work around a valid and knowledgeable work around or fix Anyone with correct knowledge of this issue have any input?
Otherwise I'm,selling the phone today.
We can use note 3 easily enuff and vzw iPhones out of the box but the Vzw g2 isn't being easy
Its almost as if all the talk of working data is comic, and people standing by their word of being able to flash T-Mobile g2 rom on this variant with a patch. Zip
Any help would help many
Thanks

Hey did you find any solution?
From my experience you can only get tmobile lte buy flashing cm11 or asop rom and editing apn for tmobile 4g lte.
Weird...
I'm on Stock rom uprooted. Using on TMobile and getting LTE. I keep the mobile network settings to global. After the 25b update, I have had issues where the data would disconnect until I restart phone. But it could be a bad Sim.
I'm on stock 24a and t-mobile lte data works fine for me on my vs980. I assume you guys have the right 4g/lte apn settings? If not, check here:
http://www.4gtricks.com/2013/04/t-mobile-4g-apn-t-mobile-4g-apn-settings.html
I also go into Settings>Tethering & Networks>Mobile Networks>System Select>Network Mode and change it to GSM first and then do a manual network search. I select the T-Mobile GSM network and when it says registered, I go back and change it back to global and 4g/lte works just fine.

WiFi calling interntional

Can anyone help me out please
Problem: WiFi calling not working.
I'm currently overseas in the uae right now and will be year for a whole year. I've tried getting my WiFi calling to work on both LP and MM but no luck. I've tried fresh installs, airplane mode toggle, WiFi tether toggle, WiFi toggle and nothing seems to work.
After I finished setting this aosip 6.0 ROM today, I looked at my quick settings and it showed T-Mobile WiFi calling but immediately after that, I had to reboot the device for a layers theme install. After reboot the WiFi calling was gone. I've tried everything I know possible to get it back but no luck.
Anyone ever experience this or can anyone possibly help me out because T-Mobile has already started hitting me for roaming charges.
Please and thank you
My current ROM
wifi calling doesnt matter about your rom, its about your provider. if your provider does not provide wifi calling(like tmobiles wifi calling), then wifi calling will never work.
It's T-Mobile. And I've check with multiple reps who told me that it's active on my account

They told me it would. I've spoken to 6 different reps. They all confirmed that WiFi calling as long as it's calling back to the US is free and unlimited

cool, i had no idea.. now i know
try using google voice instead, I know its boot what you asked about but it's what I used and it has nothing to do with the Rom, it's standalone app
I use T-Mobile Wifi calling in Europe back to the US without issue, but I set it up while still in the US.
Since T-Mobile has a *very* nice international roaming data scheme, I suggest you use Google Voice/Hangouts to avoid incurring roaming charges until you get this fixed,

No problems using Cataclysm and elementalX kernel, at home it says "wifi calling" on the quick tiles and when on a call. Maybe try a different modem? Or if rooted try a different kernel.

I was able to get it to work by flashing stock "shamu-mra58n-factory-bffc99bb" from Google. I flashed the bootloader, radio and system.
which radio is 27r

I'm running stock MRA58R, no root, fresh from the factory images. T-Mobile WiFi calling works perfectly.
I'm stock rooted, and it works, but I wouldn't say it works well. I even have a CellSpot at home and it's a little wonky. It doesn't seem to hold it's connection (wifi calling connection that is, wifi itself is fine).
I was at a cabin this past weekend where there is no T-Mobile signal and wifi calling didn't work for MMS at all. I was able to send normal SMS texts and stuff, but MMS (group messages) didn't come through at all. I didn't get all the messages until I was back on the interstate on the way back home.
Part of the reason I upgraded to the N6 from the N5 was because of wifi calling and it doesn't work all that well to be honest. I've had many times, even at home (cell spot router), where MMS messages fail to send. Receiving seems to be just fine, but sending seems to be problematic.
I bought my N6 from Amazon back when they were $350 new a month to six weeks ago, whenever that was, so it wasn't from T-Mobile directly, but that's not supposed to matter.

did you get your phone directly from tmo or elsewhere?
ive now tried every different radio without luck, doiuble checked every single setting to ensure everything was appropriate
called tmobile several times - everything is correct on their end
Do you have a E911 address on your T-Mo account? If not, add it to the account, and then try.
What is the exact error message?

i do have it set
"turn off airplane mode or connect to a wireless network to make a call"
is the message
when i try to use wifi calling with airplane mode on and connected to any wireless network
when im on the cellular network, it only uses celluar network, no HD calls and no WIFI calls
WiFi calling is working for me, except whenever its enabled it slows the WiFi way down. I ended up just getting the 4G LTE cellspot for $25 so I have really good Band 4 LTE signal for calls and can keep the WiFi running at full speed.

Are you using the TMO router too? When I asked at the store about the LTE CellSpot, they said I would have to turn in my router, as you can only have one or the other.

I don't have the router. And I do believe you can only use one or the other.
I already have a nice router so that wasn't a problem.
I have been very happy with the LTE cellspot I get full LTE signal in a pretty big house.

Thanks for the quick response! My TMO router was a big improvement to my previous one, and I don't see any slowdown when using WiFi calling with it, so I guess I'll just stick with what I have.

Any issues with WiFi hotspot/provisioning? Non-Verizon phone on Verizon network

Hey all - GF wants to upgrade to a Pixel 5 from her 3. She uses her wifi hotspot nonstop (we're both grandfathered unlimited on Verizon), and she always wants to be sure before she upgrades that her new phone will be able to unlock the hotspot without issues.
Can anybody confirm that we're good with the Pixel 5? I'd buy one from the Google store to be sure it's a non-Verizon model but we would be using it on the Verizon network. Does the usual provisioning fix work once unlocked/rooted?
Thanks a lot all!
I kinda would like to know this as well just for other reasons, getting around that pesky Hotspot data cap.
Bump - can anybody confirm? Many thanks!
This was my concern as well. There have been a few posts where people said they were able to get tethering with Magisk enabled. Using either the tethering module or by editing the build prop.
Anyone get Tethering working yet?
Normally, I edit the build.prop to bypass the Verizon check, but that stopped working on Android 10. I used a module in Magisk Manager to make it work last time. I really need tethering for the Pixel 5 to be of use for me. Any luck?
