Wifi tether for rooted users - Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Has anyone got this apk to work for the note 3? Is It Possible? I just want a tether apk that tells me the amount of data that's being used and this one is the only one I know of that does that correctly.

Which one? I can only get the native to work on my note three bypassing it with the hotspot toggle switch widget found on the market, but I rather use the a different one like open garden. but I have no luck making it work.

I found you can use wifi tether in native tether mode, but it resets the hot spot settings to default every time you turn it on. I, too, would like it to work properly because I like seeing how much data I use and the network speed.

Is there any risk in using native tether app? I am coming from tmobile, where they'd hassle you to get a tethering plan.

I don't think so. I use it pretty regularly without issues.

It isn't possible to side load it via Titanium Backup? Or is the tablet version different from the phone version?

Unless its an app that updates all the time side loading isn't a bad way to do it. In your case that seems like the least headache solution for now.

[Q] Wifi tether apps

Hi everyone, I'm looking for an app or a way that I can use my vzw galaxy Nexus to tether my nexus 10. I've used my gnex to tether a Xoom and other phones but can't get it to work with the 10. Btw, both are rooted.
Any one have any suggestions?

I use both wifi tether and foxi fi neither one are working. They work with my lap top and foxifi used to work with the xoom.
Two thoughts
1. Make sure you Nexus in not set to 5gh WiFi only and see if that helps.
2. Isn't Verizon tethering now free? I don't use Verizon so I am not 100 percent sure. If I am right check and see if it works with their app.
Good luck.

Tether stopped working

I got the nexus Monday and put in cyanogen mod now when I tether I'm getting the up sell page for hotspot any ideas?
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
That's because you didn't buy the hotspot feature for your phone. The page will continue to pop up to tell you to add and pay for the feature to continue tethering.

Poppycock. OP, just get Firefox and get the extension that allows you to change your user agent. Once tmobile sees a mobile device they will allow tethering.
Google is your friend.

He's trying to tether his phones connection like in a incognito mode so T-Mobile can't notice it. They will just think he's using regular data.

no. you can try playing with the user agent, but theyll probably still see you. sometimes they wont even try to stop you, other times they are very strict. as of lately, theyre pretty diigent about stopping tethering if you dont pay for it.
I was on Tmos Value Plan (no tethering) and received several text messages about needing to add mobile hotspot before they blocked access to Internet Explorer via tethering (although could do anything else on my Windows 7 laptop)
Called support and they switched me to simple Choice while keeping my current contract term intact to avoid a migration fee. I haven't hit the 500MB tethering mark (I'm on the unlimited data plan) accordingly to data usage stats in Android so well see if they can truly track my hotspot usage (T-mobile says they can but I know it's not possible on the Nexus 4)

this is not true. they can. you are using their network, they know all about you, and what you are doing on their network. all your data is going through their network. all the information about your device, what its doing, all its identifiers, are being watched by tmobile. otherwise, they wouldnt let you onto their network. what makes you think that they cant track a nexus 4??

On most current t-mobile branded phones tethering is done via a proprietary hotspot app that tells t-mobile you are tethering, checks to see if your account can do mobile hotspot, and how much tethering data is being used. Nexus devices do not do this and therefore t-mobile only knows about tethering via useragent strings.
Also I checked my account online and T-mobile has nothing set up there to tell unlimited data users how much of their 500mb hotspot data cap they've used. If the network was able to track that wouldn't they show it in usage stats?

Have you tried asking in the AT&T Note 3 forums? http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=2582
Sent from my fingers to your face using my Samsung Galaxy Note 3!
There's a solution in the Sprint forums
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2481448
YOU WILL PROBABLY SOFT BRICK YOUR DEVICE if you just apply that zipas is, but he does include the process used which may be helpful in making an ATT version
Try this first... it works...
Turn it on and hit the home button not cancel when you get the prompt to call VZW
Hit the notifications and select Hot spot Activated Tap to Configure and change the SSID and or the security to what you want.
Check out "Hotspot Toggle Widget"

Also ES File explorer can do tethering without rooting. Tested on s4 from ATT.
