Tested and working!
1. Download SQLite Editor
2. Open the file - /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db
3. There's a field named 'tether_entitlement_check_state'. Original value is set to 5. Changed it to 0 and save
4. Reboot the phone
5. Enjoy tethering.

One more final question regarding this """" uncommenting qemu.hw.mainkeys=0 in build.prop. After a reboot softbuttons are enabled."""" Does this mean I have to add Just this >>>qemu.hw.mainkeys=0 in the Build.Prop?? Thnk you again.... Long live HD2
'uncommenting' means there is a good chance the line will already be there,. but 'commented out' (not sure what the comment symbol is for that file, never looked in it) but for example
line 1
// line 2
line 3
line two is 'commented out'. To uncomment it i would remove the //. Its almost certainly not //, it could be a # or something..
line 1
# line 2
line 3
search the file for the line qemu.hw.mainkeys=0 and there will be somethign before it, , if teh line isnt there at all, just add
qemu.hw.mainkeys=0
to the end of the file (on its own new line)

"qemu.hw.mainkeys=0" should be one of the last lines in the build.prop(in the root browser go to system/build.prop), but if you cannot find it in the build.prop open root browser, in the root you'll see a folder "data" in data create a file named local.prop (data/local.prop) write this line qemu.hw.mainkeys=0 in it save and reboot your phone.

Does this work on latest jb sammy rom?
Just as a heads up, if you have added "qemu.hw.mainkeys=0" and it's not working. Make sure there isn't a "qemu.hw.mainkeys=1" someplace else in your build.prop or it will conflict and cause them not to show up.

TO ENABLE SOFT OPEN ROOT BROWSER AND OPEN SYSTEM AND THEN BUILD.PROP IF U DONT FIND THE LINE "qemu.hw.mainkeys=0" WRITE THIS LINE AT LAST AND TO DISABLE JUST PUT "1" IN PLACE OF "0" DONT WRITE " " IN LINE ITS ONLY FOR UNDERSTANDING AND THEN REBOOT UR PHONE
In my advice this line "qemu.hw.mainkeys=0" is already written.
And I also add this "qemu.hw.mainkeys=0" at end of the build.prop but not working please help me ....
Redmi Note 2, Android 5.0.2, MIUI 9.6
Need to enable original soft keys too. I`ve managed to edit build.prop from TWRP terminal and sed command. Keys showed BUT don`t response.
I`ve noticed a new menu option in Settings (can`t be not quite accurate, coz I have a translation enabled) - System and Device -> Advanced -> Buttons and gestures -> Screen buttons -> Change buttons positions. And if I change positions, it changed. But buttons are stil not responding.
Are there any MORE options in build.prop, that blocks it?

[NEED TESTERS][INDIA][JIO][ROOT]Workaround for RJIL's JIO 4G on Nexus 6p

NEED Testers who are ready to flash stock or wipe and reinstall their stock/rooted rom for testing this workaround for enabling VoLTE or atleast normal calling on JIO 4G network in india​Step 1: Download the apns-conf.xml
apns-conf.xml​Note : if you are unable to download try NON-FLASHABLE zip file at the end of the thread and then extract.
Step 2: Delete all the APNs and restore defaults (settings>more>mobile networks>Access point names>menu(3 dots at corner)>Reset to default)
Step 3: Open Root Explorer(ES/Solid/or_any) and navigate to /system/etc/
Step 4: Replace existing apns-conf.xml with downloaded apns-conf.xml
Step 5: Set permissions -rw-r--r-- or 644
Step 6: Reboot
Note: apns-conf.xml is from nexus 5x and jio is working awesome on n5x with volte.
Tell me results. I have not rooted yet so i won't test myself but if it works then your luck and if things go wrong there are always stock nexus images available
Good luck! Fingers crossed!

I'm just trying various things basically whatever comes to mind... Maybe I'll check the vendor or radio of Nexus 6p and compare with 5x and if everything fails... Conclusion will be "LTE support depends upon carrier"

I get disconnected always..even if im not moving. And it depends on location too.. i assume the phone is switching bands,because after reconnection, my speed varies.
Is there any other way to enable voLTE on Reliance Jio in India.Coz I don't want to root my device. Thanks

[ROOT/Guide] Native Hotspot Working

Hi after a few days of tinkering with the native hotspot to work, i finally got it working. Im going to try to make it as easy as possible to follow the guide in aiding to get it to work for you.
I'm also going to try to create a automatic script to do it when I get some time.
My device:
Unlocked Pixel XL
Network: Sprint (Should theoretically work for all.)
Requirments:
Hackers Keyboard (From play store)
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.pocketworkstation.pckeyboard&hl=en
Termux (From play store)
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.termux
Unlocked Bootloader
ElementX Kernel
Forum: [url]http://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-xl/development/kernel-elementalx-pxl-0-02-t3487072[/URL]
Chainfire's Root method
Forum: [url]http://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-xl/development/root-supersu-t3490156[/URL]
Steps:
Make sure you are rooted and have the ElementX kernel installed
Install Termux [From Playstore]
Install Hackers keyboard [From Playstore]
Open up termux
Type in su
Press Enter
Grant SuperSU access
Type mount -o rw,remount /system_root
Press Enter
Type in
cd /system_root/system/
Press Enter
apt-get install nano
Press Enter
This is a symlink binding to the directory that will allow us to modify build.prop
Nano is an editing application that's intuitive and easy to use.
Type in
settings put global tether_dun_required 0
Press Enter
Then type in
nano build.prop
Scroll all the way down to the end of the line, and add the following
net.tethering.noprovisioning=true
Using the hackers keyboard layout in landscape view press ctrl + x then press Y then Enter
Reboot your device and start the tethering, it should be able to turn on a hotspot with no errors. I may or may not work for all, but it did work for me so hopefully those out there that needed this will be able to benefit as well.

Why use nano? You can just do "echo net.tethering.noprovisioning=true >> /system/build.prop" and not have to worry about special keyboards or apt-get installing anything.

That work's too I forgot about that
But it needs to be
echo net.tethering.noprovisioning=true >> /system_root/system/build.prop
Since current root is systemless and the partition layout won't let you just touch the system directory without the symlink
This does not work on Verizon's network running Elemental X and build NDE63P
Not looking to thread crap, but just wanted to share my experience and get opinions:
I rooted previously using Chainfire's method. Granted root access to ROOT EXPLORER app----purchased several years ago.
Went into the system folder and opened the build.prop file.
Added the last line: net.tethering.noprovisioning=true and saved and rebooted.
This took a total of 2-3 minutes. I know not everyone wants to spend money, but for those that already purchaed ROOT EXPLORER, was my method OK?
Let me see if this is right so basically open root explorer then open system_root directory then system directory then open and edit build prop and put that line into the build prop net.tethering.noprovisioning=true >> ? So just that including the arrows?

Almost.....
I went in to the system directory and opened and edited the build.prop file
I only added the following line, with no extra arrows.
net.tethering.noprovisioning=true
I saved and rebooted and native tethering works.
Root Explorer will save your original build.prop file as a backup.
Just for kicks....I switched back to my original build.prop file to check results.
As expected, tethering failed. When I re-edited the file and added net.tethering.noprovisioning=true
it was working again. Good Luck.

editing the build.prop and adding net.tethering.noprovisioning=true allows you to turn on the PORTABLE Wi-Fi hotspot from within the settings menu.
Certain carriers disable tethering my default, depending on your plan.
If you are already able to turn it on without making any changes, it's possible your carrier and/or plan already allows tethering by default.

You don't have an unlimited data plan and Verizon allows tethering by default. That's why you don't have to make any build.prop changes to enable hotspot.
If you were on a legacy Unlimited plan, Verizon and others will have hotspot blocked, unless you pay extra or bypass the block by editing the build.prop

His point is that with Verizon hotspot works out of the box on all plans except unlimited data plans
If you have a Verizon Unlimited data plan just add
Code:

No need for all of this. I just verified that the following works:
1. Install Network Signal Refresher Lite from the Playstore
2. Open both Network Signal Refresher and the Mobile Hotspot in split screen.
3. Hit the Refresh button in Network Signal Refresher and the quickly turn on Mobile Hotspot.
4. Profit!
Hope this helps.

It's a need for those who wish for it to work all the time via toggle not to use an app every time, it's a lot more efficient.

Mobile Hotspot/Tethering Unlock

Hello
I am coming to the g4 plus after having used the samesung s5 for years on MOAR rom and i am looking for how i can get my mobile hotspot back on sprint
I get Unable to connect to data network you may not be subscribed to .....
now i do not have a wifi plan per se but i do have a really old phone as a modem plan i am still paying for (back then it was 10$ a month for unlimited 2008)
so first thing i did was look for where to modify the apn settings for tethering like i had to do before but when the phone activates on sprint the apn menu disapears.
so i look for a custom rom like MOAR but for the g4 plus and i am not seeing any that say they have wifi hacks included
I did this successfully on the nougat soak, but requires root access. Add this line at the end of your build.prop (I used Root Explorer to edit the file):
net.tethering.noprovisioning=true
Save build.prop and reboot phone. Then, in the terminal emulator app, issue the following commands one at a time:
su
settings put global tether_dun_required 0
exit
Reboot phone again.
---------- Post added at 04:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:30 PM ----------
You might want to try it after the build.prop edit to see if it works, the terminal emulator commands may not be necessary.
i just use airdroid for hotspot
I will take a look at airdroid tomorow if it works great if not ill have to dig into the build.prop was trying to avoid that with a ready made rom
this brings back memories of reg'editing my htc titan lol

You used both or only the build.prop edit. I can add it to source in that case. And is this issue only with 1625 variant?
The compliance with the provider setting is well known for Moto phones (at least the ones sold in US). I am using an app from here on XDA called Entitlement Bypass:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/themes-apps/app-hotspot-entitlement-bypass-v1-1-5-9-t2705152
This works perfect. I used the build.prop edit and su command. Completely opened tethering.

This worked for my XT1644. Tethering and hospot option was grayed out in settings on custom ROMs, until doing this build prop edit. I did not have to run the commands, build prop edit solved my issue. Thank you so much.
When I rooted first time,I faced this problem of hotspot. I then installed elementalx in my device which solved the problem.

This does work on Motorola G5 plus unlocked from best bye bye using ATnT.
Unrooted XT1644. AT&T provider. Tethering & portable hotspot option is accessible, but when I click on it I encounter "account not set up for tethering...." Could I access the build prop edit via an ADB command or script?
EDIT: Nevermind. My phone's bootloader is locked so no ADB access possible anyway. Looks like I'll need to look into 3rd-party WiFi tethering apps (such as PdaNet+ or NetShare) non-root solutions.

Can someone with non-sprint s8 variant help?

Seems like sprint has cut off access to hotspot in the settings in the gs8 can some help me by pasting a copy of there tiles/location to see if i can just copy it into mines (assuming you have access to hotspot) to see if that would work?
Just follow the instructions here takes about 2 minutes to do:
