I couldn't get that to work, it wouldn't let me "add" so I rooted it and am running partycyborges Rom so is there a way to bypass the subscription check or disable the provisions.

Enabling Hotspot on rooted Verizon HTC 10?

anyone know how to enable the tethering on the Verizon HTC 10 without a subscription? On the M8, there was a zip that was flashed to enable it, I was wondering if there was something similar, or if there is a text file that can be edited?
if you are rooted, goto /system/customize/acc/default.xml. using some editor, goto line 202 "tethering guard support" set that to false.
That should do it
thanks!
heres a edited default.xml (Verizon) to enable it if anyone interested
This is for launch 1.19.605.9 base
Does 'tethering guard' have to be changed? It's Is currently set to '1', which I noticed is different from the thread on the unlocked version. The unlocked version has a default of '9' and ppl ate are changing it to '0'.

That's tether guard rule. Set that to 0.
Then go find tether guard support and change to false.

youd need to replace the file in a File Explorer with root access. back up your original for just in case, but if your Verizon you should be fine.

Yes...it's just like flashing the XAA version and the SIM and CSC directing the servers to download T-Mobile files and settings...this Firmware has it all included...so if T-Mobile includes any specific apps there in there...but it is not like the full carrier version for SM-N950U...

I am not sure, I have Sprint, but I think that they enabled it by using the shortcut master lite app and going to ims settings...there are several posts about it in the t-mobile section
