Is it safe to use the hacked Sprint Hotspot? I have always been paranoid and just used wifi tether. However on MikG 2.2 Sprint Hotspot is in the quick settings on the notification bar, so I a thinking about using it instead of wifi tether. Thanks for your input!

No need to worry ... either is ok. The main difference between the two is that wifi tether has the ability to do 4G if you're in a 4G coverage area.
Hey,
First off thanks for the root and roms that are available... Okay so a lot of the time im mostly in wifi areas... Now what would you guys recommend for an app that automatically enable/disable wifi? I used llama before but I noticed when I am not in a wifi area, wifi is still enabled and searching for a network which I assume is killing my battery... Now I just downloaded auto wifi enabler hoping this would work... I just want the wifi to be picked up when I am in one of my known networks and then automatically disabled when Im not...
Thanks!
Hello, I’m new to XDA Forum and thank you in advance for answering my basic question.
Verizon Gnex stock. Wi-Fi Hot Spot?
Prior to JB OTA update I installed PDAnet, FoxFi & FoxFi Addon. The Gnex is my only net access right now. After JB update I installed SwitchPro to get a WiFi Hot Spot. I assume it’s the native one “AndroidAP”. FoxFi is now works after developer fix for JB. So I have FoxFi and SwitchPro installed but things aren’t working correctly.
SwitchPro no longer launches the native Wi-Fi “AndroidAP” but launches the FoxFi hotspot instead. ? When I launch FoxFi I now get two Wi-Fi notifications on the bar. When LTE/3g searches/toggles the FoxFi active Wi-Fi Hotspot indicates "Off" but the Gnex settings Tethering & portable hotspot indicator shows FoxFi "active". ?
I like the SwitchPro switches but also use PDAnet for USB Tether. 4g LTE reception is spotty where I live. Bounces between 4g/3g a lot but getting better.
Would someone help me properly setup the wi-fi hotspot apps and switches?
Thanks much
Would someone care to help an old guy fix this minor issue?
Thank you.
I was under the impression that since then FoxFi app was fixed for jb, and there is the addon for it, switch pro was no longer needed?
I could be wrong as I do not tether so those apps serve me no purpose.

I am currently running the Eclipse ROM (4.2) and know the wifi tether app doesn't work..(tried all kinda of settings) so I resorted to trying the native tethering with the same outcome... I can get my laptop to connect but it will not access the net at all... I only get "local access only" Is there a setting I am missing or is tethering not working at all with 4.2 (Eclipse specifically). I don't want to use PdaNet or anything like that..I just want it wifi hotspot (unlimited data on VZW)
My Sprint toroplus loses data and I get a crash of SecPhone every time I turn on WiFi tether.
This happens to me on any 4.2.1 ROM I try with several different kernel combos.
I need some help as well please

the wifi tether app doesnt work on 4.2, but.. the default wifi option works without any issues(phones main settings, witeless and networks, more, tethering and portable hotspot).

Thanks... But I am using the native WiFi tether settings option to turn on the hotspot. Not using any third party apps.
Settings, wireless and networks, tethering and portable hotspot, on, data disconnect on phone and toast notification the SecPhone has stopped working. I leave it on and data stays off and gives the same fc message every few minutes. I turn WiFi tether off and no more toasts about SecPhone(is a system .apk) and the data connection restores itself.
My WiFi tether and USB tether were working fine 2 days ago on BlackBean6 for toroplus. Ever since I've made the jump to 4.2.1 ROMs I get this error

it could just be the ROM/kernel that you are using. everything is working fine with rasbean jelly ROM and the trinity kernel(both 4.2.1).did you data wipe before updating or did you dirty flash?
Hmm I haven't had any issues with that on eclipse 4.2. Using the stock kernel with it.

Got the one last night and rooted and applied deblot script. Installed WiFi tether but will not work. Tried genieric, auto and s4 settings since it has the same chip but no luck. Anyone get it to work? Using 3.3 beta 2.
Update:
Got it to work using this modded wifi tether app:
WiFi Tether - TrevE Mod
Make sure you uninstall wifi tether app first then install the modded version.
and these settings posted by robfactory here
WiFi Tether - TrevE Mod
generic (wlan0)
enable wi-fi encryption
wi-fi driver reload 1 enabled
wi-fi driver reload 2 disabled
MSS clamping enable
routing fix enable
MUCH thanks for the links. O downloaded to my one and setup was good.. NO need for me to adjust any settings and Wi-Fi tether is working... was getting 21 down from my HTC one to an iphone..
I was getting about 30 with my Razr and s3 at my house. My one is getting 50 down. Faster than my fios speeds lol.
YES!!!! I don't know how much I can thank you for this thread! I was having issues with this same thing - I could get the tether to work but it would not be secured, thank you much!!! I was just about to post a question asking for help lol
FoxFi works without any hassles.

Hey, quick question. Does this require root, or can it be done without? Just purchased a One yesterday, so I can't currently root. Thanks.
Yeah, the trev e mod requires root
