Problem Solved: Tmobile Hotspot works on my unlocked ATT phone

Hello! :o

I'm a 70-year old grandmother who has never posted here before so please be patient. I am posting because a couple of old posts I read here helped me solve this frustrating and aggravating problem. I figured maybe my additional info might help someone else who may stumble onto this site trying to solve this Tmobile wireless hotspot problem on their own unlocked ATT phones.

Since I'm new they won't let me post actual links so search around online if you need to You'll find them.

TL;DR - You're right. All I can suggest is that you Just read through things or skim until you get to the part/s that help you. :o

==================
:: THE PROBLEM ::
==================

I could not FOR THE LIFE OF ME get my Tmobile hotspot to work on my unlocked Att phone (Samsung Mega 6.3 SGH - i527 4.4.2). I WAS able to successfully tether using FoxFi/PdaNet but NOT connect as a wireless mobile hotspot. Whenever I would try to connect as a hotspot the following error appeared: "Mobile Data is not available or Invalid SIM"

[Here is more detailed info on FoxFi/Pdanet for those, like me, who know nothing.]: FoxFi/PdaNet allows mobile hotspot, tethering (using a USB cable), and bluetooth. FoxFi (dot) com . There is a charge (?) to get the unlock key for full features. It was worth every penny because running my laptop through my phone by tether - and NOW wifi hotspot - saves me about /month in broadband internet charges!! Tra-la!! (Fixed income, you know.):o

*Note, there are two parts FoxFi/Pdanet. One application goes on your phone, the other goes on your laptop/desktop so they can communicate while tethering. There is a new application just for tablets in the App Store. I don’t know if there is one for iphone.

Download links:
For Android (plus Mac or Windows) download here pdanet (dot) co
For iPhone (plus Windows) download here: junefabrics (dot) com

There is a new FoxFi/PdaNet application just for tablets in the App Store. I don’t know if there is one for iphone \ tablets.

=============================================
* * *SOLUTION THAT SOLVED THE PROBLEM FOR ME * * * ( after 4 months of trying everything!):
==============================================

STEP 1: I ROOTED MY PHONE

Actually, I did this awhile ago and I don't remember how I did it but I'm pretty sure it involved the "Kingroot" application. Google around for rooting instruction for your particular phone


STEP 2: QUESTIONABLE STEP but who knows

( I don't really think you need to do this but I did and I figure I'll give you all the info that was involved. I uninstalled this AFTER I fixed this issue and there's been no problem but you never know if somehow it was necessary.

Thinking it, alone might do the trick, I installed __ EntitlementByPass-v1.2.apk ___"for the Motorola Moto X, by KrYpToNiTe"

Download Page link here:
androidfilehost (dot) com (forward slash) ?w=profile&uid=23329332407576114
Download link here:
androidfilehost (dot) com (forward slash) ?fid=23501681358557764

(Actually, I got so crazy that I installed this on top of itself several times and clicked to bypass each time. God knows what doing those installs like that did. Maybe nothing. Maybe it almost bricked (ruined) my phone. What I do know is that when I took Step 2 (below) the bypass was OFF. Again, later I uninstalled this and had no problems without being on the phone.)


STEP 3: I watched and EXACTLY followed the instructions on the following YouTube video (Detailed info below was in the description. Included it here in case the video ever disappears. My added comments are in brackets.

"HOW TO GET FREE NATIVE WIFI HOTSPOT ON THE SAMSUNG GALAXY S4 AT&T"

youtube (dot) com (forward slash) watch?v=SHKkEKjUnqM

Published on Jul 12, 2013
This is a tutorial video on how to get free hotspot on the Samsung Galaxy S4 AT&T. MUST BE ROOTED IN ORDER TO GET FREE HOTSPOT. This only works on the SGH - i337 and AT&T. Enjoy your free Hotspot!

[Clearly, it works on more than just the SGH - i337]

Instructions

1. ROOT Your Galaxy S4 - youtu (dot) be (forward slash) KBZ6ydFHLX4

2. DOWNLOAD free "TetheringProvision.apk" (application) [directly to your phone from the Play Store]

3. DOWNLOAD free "Root Browse" (application) [directly to your phone from the Play Store]

4. OPEN the "Root Browser" application and navigate to /system/app [Go inside the "system" folder, find and open the "app" folder that will be in there.]

5.

a. LOCATE these two files in that "app" folder:
TetheringProvision.apk
and
TetheringProvision.odex

b. RENAME each of the two files [by pressing and holding the file itself, then selecting edit or change name, I don’t know which.]

c. CHANGE the name "TetheringProvision.apk" to "TetheringProvision.bak"
d. CHANGE the name "TetheringProvision.odex" to "TetheringProvision.bak1"
(*Make sure you grant Superuser Request!) [This is relevant only after you root your phone, in which case it will make sense if you have installed the SuperUser app on your phone.]

6. USE the "Root Browser" app to find your downloads folder: [Go inside the "sdcard" folder, find and open the "Download" folder]
(/sdcard/Download). This will be where you downloaded the TetheringProvision.apk.]

7. COPY the “TetheringProvision.apk”:
[This is like copying and pasting text but here we're copying and pasting an entire application. How it works I don't know but it does.

a. PRESS down on it and select “copy”.
b. GO BACK to the "system" folder, find and open the "app" folder
c. Paste it in by clicking the large button near the bottom of your screen that says “Paste”. If you don’t see that button, start this step over.]

8. Reboot your Galaxy S4 [or whatever phone you have] and turn on native Mobile Hotspot via Settings. ATT will still give you a warning message, but mobile hotspot/tethering will now work!

* * * [Special Note #1] I turned it on using FoxFi because I wanted to try hide my usage. Did it work? I don't know. I have unlimited Data with Tmobile and I'm way over the 5 GB hotspot allowance for unlimited users. If it becomes a problem I will download the "Wifi Tether" app and give that a try. So far so good. Actually, I think turning the Wifi on through FoxFi automatically turns on the native ATT hotspot toggle in the settings.

* * * [Special Note #2] When I tried to turn it on at first I ran into trouble. I got "setting have stopped" messages for quite awhile but that was a NEW error message so I knew SOMETHING had changed. I REFUSED to give up. I just kept goofing around turning it on and waiting and getting the error message and restarting my phone and turing it on and on and on and getting the message and restarting my phone, etc. THEN, all of a SUDDEN, that sucker worked!!! I knew it because two little wireless icons (one Foxfi, blue; and PdAnet, black) rolled up on my top notifications bar. They rolled up, they rolled down, they rolled up, again, and THEN THEY STAYED THERE!! I could NOT believe my eyes!! I let it run for awhile too afraid to turn it off in case it would never come back. But it did. It went on and off just fine so, eventually, I uninstalled the EntitlementBypass app without if affecting anything. This being said, SOMETIMES, I still get the "setting have stopped" error message, in which case I just restart my phone, toggle it on and do that until it comes back on to stay.

* * * [Special Note #3] If you get this to work, I don't know if it still will if you update your system, security, anything, so I NEVER WILL. I'd rather have a working hotspot than ANY of that.

Wifi Hotspot - Tethering

I wrote:
>Has anyone with a full service (not freedompop) sim tried the hotspot? I've turned off data on my Ting sim so I can't test it myself.

lordmorphous replied:
>Just tried it tonight. I have a postpaid AT&T account. Worked quite well.

I went ahead and enabled data and tethering for my Ting sim.

Ting's FAQs suggest that tethering cannot be used with LTE data, but I had no problem. Ting with LTE connection showed the same speed on the R1 HD and the wifi connected device, at the time, about 20 Mbps up and down.

root Xperia Arc S enable reverse tethering + wifi hotspot that uses it in 10 minutes

How to root Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc S and enable reverse tethering + wifi hotspot that uses the reverse tethering in 10 minutes:
I just learned how to do it
took me about 5 hours to learn and succeed, thought I might share it in case someone else might want to try in the future:

guide is only for windows machine, but you can use the sources to do the same with Linux or a Mac
It only requires a few tweaks to drivers installation and terminal code.
Also it might work with other Xperia devices but I can't promise it will, you might want to check sources for in depth look.

Sources:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OxF4O5E2RiY&index=10 - how to root Xperia Arc S video
http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Androi...s/td-p/287857- how to root Xperia Arc S
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2287494 - how to enable reverse tethering
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1882852 - how to get your wifi hotspot to share reverse tethering
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2635830 - drivers in case you need them


1) root your device:
in phone:
settings -> applications -> enable "unknown sources"
settings -> applications -> development -> enable USB debugging"
settings -> Sony Ericsson -> connectivity -> USB connection mode -> set to "mass storage mode (MSC) -> OK

Connect your device to windows
Windows should automatically install the required drivers

If in some case it does not, or if you have problems rooting your device
Just install the drivers from this link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2635830
If the link is broken in the future I uploaded it to tinyupload:
http://s000.tinyupload.com/index.php...73727411836001
Just install the driver that you need
Xperia Arc S actually is actually not listed there, I just installed all the ones that have "s" and "arc" in them
It takes a bit of space so try to not just install all of them

Download the rooting software from
http://www.mediafire.com/download/5r.../Eroot_1.2.exe
Once it downloads activate it
A green windows written in Japanese should pop up
You don't need to understand a bit of what it says
If you see a big green button that says "ROOT" then all is good
If you don't it means some of the steps above were not done correctly
Either you didn't change your phone settings or you don't have the necessary drivers

Press the big green button that says "ROOT"
it should show you a list of 4 things
The 3 first things will change to a V sigh rather quickly
The 4th thing should take a little bit more

Once it's finished you should see a different big green button that says "*SomethingInJapnese*ROOT"
DO NOT PRESS IT
Just exit the program

If you pressed it you need to close the program from the task manager (ctrl+shift+esc in windows 10, ctrl+alt+delete in older windows)

now you phone is rooted :)

2)enable connection sharing in your computer
Go to Control Panel\Network and Internet\Network Connections
If for some reason it doesn't find the path
Press Start+R, write "ncpa.cpl" (without the quotation marks) and press enter

This is taken from the "how to enable reverse tethering" guide I linked in above, it explains it nicely:
right click on an Internet connection that you have.
I assume that you are using a desktop which doesn't have any wifi adapter, so right click on LAN Ethernet connection with Internet, and select "Properties".
in tab "Sharing" (or "Advanced" for Windows XP), click "Allow other network users to connect through...", then select the USB connection in dropdown list below.
click OK. Windows will automatically setup your USB network connection and assign to it an IP address, default for Windows 7: 192.168.137.1, default for Windows XP: 192.168.0.1.
You can see your Internet connection is now "Shared" and your USB connection is now "Unidentified network".

In case you don't see a dropdown list (like me)
press settings (in the "Sharing" tab) and it will be there
I actually didn't see "USB connection" as an option so I just marked "FTP Server" and "HTTP Server" and it worked for me

Once you press OK it should take some time for your machines to set things up so don't panic if it loads for a minute or so

3)install terminal emulator on your phone
You have 2 options here

1) register your phone with a fake gmail account, download the playstore app (from the market app) and download what you need
it didn't work for me, for some reason even after I registered it said that my account is not connected even though it certainly was
If you want to risk it you may try but for me it was just a waste of time

2) download the apk for the app and install it using the phone built in package installer.

Using your phone browser, go to
https://apps.evozi.com/apk-downloader/

IF IT POPS UP A REQUEST TO CONTINUE OR CANCEL ALWAYS PRESS CANCEL
it just tries to redirect you to an advertising site, it won't affect your download if you press cancel

copy and paste the link from the Google play store site of the app you want to install
In this case the link is:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...roidterm&hl=en

press "Generate Download Link", I should load a bit and then open a new green button that says "Click here to Download"
(if you don't see it scroll down)
press it and it should start the download.
You can open the file directly by opening the notification bar and pressing on the file that was just download
(notification bar like a drop down curtain, just slide your finger from the top of the screen downwards)
select "Package installer" as the app to open it with and it should install it quickly.

Also for later if you don't have one already installed, install some kind of note app
I just installed this one:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...sy.notes&hl=en

4)
connect your device to your computer
In your phone go to
settings -> wireless&networks -> Tethering & portable hotspot -> enable USB tethering
Wait for it to connect, once it does you can move on

Go to your terminal emulator, write "su" (without the quotation marks) and press enter
What it does is asks the phone to give you "Super User" permissions to change your phone built in settings
Give the app permission to do so.
The sign in the terminal emulator should change from $ to # to indicate that you have Super User permissions

Next, copy those lines to the terminal emulator and press enter
(you might want to save them in your note app before, I'll explain why in a bit)


netcfg usb0 dhcp

ifconfig usb0 192.168.137.2 netmask 255.255.255.0

route add default gw 192.168.137.1 dev usb0

echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward

iptables -t nat -F

iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o usb0 -j MASQUERADE

iptables -P FORWARD ACCEPT


first 3 lines - for reverse tethering
Next 4 lines - for wifi hotspot reverse tethering sharing

couple of notes:
1)if it prints something like "iptables failed strangely: No such file or directory"
just ignore it, it works anyway

2)if you get an error relating to "dhcp" - make sure you enabled "USB tethering" in your device, and that you enabled connection sharing in your computer.

3) if for some reason you have other errors, try replacing "usb0" with "rndis0" in lines 1,2 and 3
not sure if you also need to change the "usb0" in line 6, but if it still gives you an error I didn't describe try chaging that too.

if you did get any errors just copy and paste the code (with the needed changes if any are needed) to the terminal emulator again
remember to do so only in su mode! (# instead of $)
also, save the final version (the version that worked for you) of the code lines in the note app you installed (step 5 explains why)

everything should now work perfectly
reverse tethering should work
and if you want to enable wifi hot spot just go to
settings -> wireless&networks -> Tethering & portable hotspot -> enable Portable WI-Fi hotspot

5)
for me the reverse tethering and wifi hotspot sharing stops working after I reboot the phone
In such a case just
1)connect your phone to your computer
2)in phone: settings -> wireless&networks -> Tethering & portable hotspot -> enable USB tethering
3)go to terminal emulator
4)go to Super User mode (write su and press enter)
3)copy and paste the code you saved from the note app to the terminal emulator and press enter

and it should work again

if you want to connect your phone to another computer, to the exact same steps but remember to enable connection sharing in your computer before!

hope this little guide helped you :)

Using S6 as a hotspot

Simple question I think :) so I notice I have anice option for using my S6 as a hotspot using my 4G or 3G data. Now what I would like to do is perhaps connect my I pad to it. Would this work OK? Also does my S6 screen need to be on the entire time?

Here are the methods which I have tried but couldnt get it working.
Method 1:
Dialed ##DATA# and used my MSL to get into the options.
However, there is no option to change APN settings.

Method 2:
Used sql lite and dig into telephony.db.
Here also, I do not find option to edit APN.

No 3G/4G when Hotspot is on

Hello everyone, with the problem on my previous thread I decided to wipe the phone and restore it to the rooted L29 ROM. Everything seems to work great except for one thing.

When WiFI Hotspot is activated the 3G/4G doesn't work - Chrome would say "you are offline - your device is offline."

Any insight on how to fix this issue is greatly appreciated.

Thank You

Hotspot performance

Hi, I live in a metropolitan area with generally good LTE signal (t-mobile/usa), and before the OPO3 I had HTCs, nexuses and a Z3. And I use the WiFi hotspot a lot. All the handsets in the past few years had performed surprisingly really well - same service, same place - i could stream HD youtube since 2010.

This one though is barely loading pages. Everything else works great. Is this normal?

I've tried restarting both my laptop & 5X still the same issue.

Unlimited hotspot tethering on sprint samsung galaxy s7

A alternate way of unlocking your hotspot on your galaxys7 without the need of root:good:

You are going to need the MSL code for you phone
Which can be obtained by calling customer service and asking them (this is the way i did it) or just go to you nearest sprint shop and ask them for the code.
(If they ask why you want the code, just say its for your personal info or interest)
Once you have your code, go to your phone dialer and dial the following: ##3282#
Than you will prompted to write your MSL code
After typing your code, you will be presented to a menu, on that menu you are going to search for "APN SETTINGS" than you are going to search for APN2 EHRPD Internet APN2 LTE internet, and on both you are going to search for the following: "default,mms"
And once you found the "default,mms", you are going to edit it to : default,mms,dun (just add: ",dun" at the end).
Once you have finished editing, just reboot your phone
And you just unlocked unlimited hotspot and tethering:cool:
