[Q] Epic 4G tether....guidance needed

I searched the forum and found that some are having difficulty with the Epic 4G tether. After reading, I still need some help please.
I rooted the Epic using the one click method on one of the threads on the forum. About phone says:
Firmware version: 2.2.1
Baseband version: S : D700.0.5S.EC05
Kernel Version: 2.6.32.9
Build number: FROYO.EC05
Hardware version: D700.0.5
I installed on the Epic Barnace Tether and WifiTether (the one with the lime green symbol), which were the two most popular in the market.
Unfortunately, when I run the programs, my Xoom doesn't "see" my phone. Our two household laptops do whether I use Barnacle or WifiTether, but my Xoom doesn't list the phone under available wifi networks.
It's been a few months since the last thread that resembled this issue. Is there some consensus as what the easiest/best thing to do is to get my Xoom to see the Epic tethering? Perhaps this should be on the Xoom forum? Not sure.
Thanks for your help.

OK.
From my experience there two things at play here.
Number one, if i am not mistaken some devices have problems connecting to adhoc.
But this is not your problem at all.
Your kernel does not have the necesary stuff to make it work.
You need to install another rom, Simply AOSP, Experience, I can confirm work with tethering. I prefer simply AOSP because its as close to the nexus s as possible. if you still like the old samsung look you can actually switch to it with simply settings and it will be like any other samsung rom.
I had the same problem with both my galaxy s 4g and my epic 4g.
Keep in mind even after you get it working it will only be adhoc support.

OK, thanks....some more help if you would.
So what you're saying is that if I install another ROM, it will work. The name of the ROM I should install is Simply AOSP or Experience. After I install these ROMs, I will be able to tether. Is there a link that will guide me through these steps?
I have a vague idea of what ROMs are, but I don't know what simply settings are. Is there a link where I could read about that?
In your last sentence when you say keep in mind after you get it working it will only be adhoc support........what does that mean?
When I install a new ROM, will the phone lose any other functionality? Is it reversible?
Sorry for all the questions. I was just getting comfortable with rooting and ROMs are a whole new area to me.

He's saying his computers to pick up the hotspot meaning the tether is working just not the Xoom I've had the same issue not showing up but yes do try another ROM and kernel check out qbking77 on YouTube makes great videos on how to flash roms and kernels if you need help and as of earlier he was looking for suggestions for a new vid pm him to make a vid on how to get tethering to properly work if you can't get it to work

OK, I'll check out the videos. I know nothing about ROMs other than the little I have read on this thread in the past 45 minutes or so.
The problem I am having though is that ONLY my Xoom tablet cannot see the phone wifi hotspot. My laptops see it fine and connect to it. Do you think I should be trying to fix this from the Xoom end of the problem vs. the Epic end of the problem? Confused.

I'm leaning toward the Xoom as the problem check out a Xoom forum
doesn't hurt to try

[MOD] Enable unlimited USB, Wifi, and Bluetooth tethering.

Hey all. My first mod on the GNII. It's the result of ideas I had (modifying tetheringprovision.apk) and a bud (Electron73) had (modifying framework-res.apk) to restore the innate tethering ability of Android that AT$T loves to nuke for some reason...
The original idea came from Electron's thread post here and seeing as how I just got my new Note II I figured I'd try it out.. Eureka.. It works.
Again as you saw the idea was his.. Just a much cleaner mod that my modded Provision that fooled the simcard.
I've tested it on my device but as usual take the standard precautions... Back up before applying.
My phone is pure stock excluding this mod but I'm sure that'll be changing and I'll keep this up to date as I can.
Good luck and feedback is welcomed.

how to flash
Is this flash-able through Clock work recovery. Sorry if its a dumb question also will ATT see our usage like always and send us nasty emails trying to force us to a tethering plan. thanks in advance for your time and help.

Yes, it is.
Edited OP to reflect.
There has been much discussion about whether or not they can 'see' tethering. In short if they choose to put the time and effort into it by doing packet analyzation or going back and and looking and your browsing then technically, yes it can always be detected. Just be mindful and don't go crazy and you should be fine. The last 3 devices I've had over 4 years were all modded to re-enable tethering and I've been fine but that's my story. Yours might differ. The main thing I'd suggest is to not go crazy and use 20 gigs of mobile data or something obvious.
I average 2-3 gigs a month regular phone usage so getting closer to the throttle ceiling of 5 shouldn't matter that much.

much appreciated

Thank you for your response and great advice it is much appreciated. Have a great holiday.

Just to NOTE. That AT&T Lte data plan & if your on an unlimited plan than your data cap is set to 10 gigs, b4 they slow you down. :what:
But we'll b using this thanx
Side note: when I tethered my Xbox from my phone they sent me a msg telling me about tethering plan. But just for normal use everyone will b ok. I get no msg from AT&T ever!

Hi, first thank you to OP. Can you advise what the advantages are to tethering using this "native" method vs out of the box besides the carrier not knowing you are doing so? It seems like straight NAT but is there a performance gain?
Thanks.

Well..
Performance wise it isn't any different than the out-of-the-box method.. It IS the out-of-the-box method minus the provisioning app that the out-of-the-box method calls to see if you are 'eligible' before it activates tethering.
The gains:
The out-of-the-box method had no bluetooth tethering.. This does.
The install script deletes 'ProvisionManager.apk' and 'ProvisionManager.odex' since they aren't called any longer so.. You gain device space? Though it may be a moot point given the device capacity.
For me.. This is what mattered: This method isn't a hack. Zero chance of breaking something else on the device. Its a step toward making android perform as it was intended before that carriers perform their surgeries on it. I know this one may just be a personal preference but it really REALLY irritates me that American carriers spend time and effort to block features of the device that the device would have innately done before they modified it.
I wont get into a debate of semantics but if I shell out non-contract prices on a device and buy it outright (as I did in this case) I can't for the life of me figure out how the carrier has the right to tell me what features the device can have. They have every right to dictate service plan features but not device features.
Enough rambling. Back to development discussions. (If you wanna reply to my small rant, please, use PM)

No. I'll make a mod that does and update the OP with a second link as soon as I finish it.. Stay tuned.
UPDATE: I decompiled the framework-res.apk from this rom. It seems to have the needed edits for tethering to be unlimited. Is tethering missing from that rom? I'm headed out for drinks but I'll flash the complete rom later tonight or tomorrow and test it.

I flashed with the I317_N7105ZHALJ4 and it activated the teathering, WIFI, BT and USB work great as does Multi-window :good:
However, I am not sure what port this teathering uses. In some platforms, the teathering uses a different port number than other general data that apps use. The carriers can then easily scan for data using this port and send you the nasty SMS or just start charging you their tethering fees. But if the MOD uses the right port - the carriers would have no idea.
Anyone know which port I317_N7105ZHALJ4 ROM uses?

This should work with the completely stock cleanrom 1.1.1 right?

Wifi calling discovery

Ive been looking around and researching on how to get wifi calling on AOSP roms. I have made what I believe to be a big discovery. T-mobile now uses IMS for newer android phones, which is UMA/sip etc. I decompiled the ims-service.apk from the stock DLJA rom. I found an XML that contains the settings to use the service! You can get the IMS installer from here http://code.google.com/p/the-ims-open-source-project-for-android/
I put the settings into the app and tried connecting but it came up with ER05, invalid SIM card. I googled that and it I get leads to saying that the sim isn't authenticated for WIFI calling. I know that it is, because it works fine on stock roms. I've also attached a logcat of me attempting to connect. I've attempted to change some of the info of the strings to reflect my personal phone number but that did not change anything.

This isn't a suitable thread for "developer discussion." It also doesn't even mention which phone it's for, but based on "DLJA", I'm guessing it's for the SGS3, so it should be moved to the tmobile sgs3 sections.

So I took part in a survey this morning sent from T-Mobile. They had some very interesting questions pertaining to Wi-Fi Calling and AOSP ROMS, specifically if I was running on a rooted device, and if I was able to get Wi-Fi calling enabled on whatever ROM I was using. They had other questions about Wi-Fi Calling and how much I would use it, etc...Apparently they're recognizing the community and are starting to ask the right questions. I like this line of thinking!

Let us not assume they are asking these questions to try and help us.. Everything T-Mobile has ever demonstrated toward the hacking community was finding ways to prevent or patch and progress made.. like they're going to assist us with tethering or wifi calling on custom ROMs.. not going to happen.. They are probably asking so they can investigate how it is working on an AOSP ROM and patch the exploit..

Reason I asked if anyone has it working cuz in the changes log of this ROM says native tethering unrestricted working. But its not well for me atleast

Yes, I'm obviously a troll
900 posts and all of them trolls.
If it isnt working for you and it worked for others, you should ask those "others" what settings they have on their rom. Maybe they have a different kernel or they wiped more times then you so their flash is cleaner.

I don't know what the problem is with USB Tethering, but you asked for Sprint Hotspot Tethering and CNexus gave you a very good answer on how to accomplish setting up a hotspot. You must use a 3rd party app because the Sprint Hotspot app is not unlocked. Maybe try asking in the ROM thread?

You sir, need to calm down. they are trying to help. The way you worded it is indeed confusing.
Anyway, if you read the OP, the darthstalker ROM was intended for the use of only the T-Mobile s3. He just now Ported it to sprint so things might not work. The OP is probably from the T mobile thread. T mobile and sprint are different. Why don't you post in his thread the problem and tell him. First you should calm down and be 100% sure it isn't an user error.
Have a good day.

Exactly what I was saying. If you're having issues with the tether and others got it to work, then you should ask them, as in ask in the rom thread and not the general public, most of which probably do not use the same rom.

Since it is a port it might still be coded for t mobile. Since both are broken, use the WiFi tether to fix it or find another ROM that has it working. You could also Google mods or anything make it work. Don't get mad at us for trying to help.

APP - OpenIT - The easy, FREE Way to Unlock Unlimited HotSpot on Sprint Galaxy Device

Hey everyone! I have written an app that makes the process of getting hotspot easier. Shortcut Master Lite is no longer available, so I decided to take matters into my own hands.
You can see my post on the Note 9 forums at the link below:

It should work for ALL Sprint Galaxy devices and possibly others. It requires no permissions and does not require root. Enjoy!

Sorry about that! It should be fixed now!

I did this tweak and it worked perfectly with your app. Thanks for this!
One issue I am having which I'm guessing has to do with the apn type edit, is that a couple apps that I use regularly use on my phone (Blokada and Discord) are having connection issues. Both apps kept disconnecting and reconnecting. Is there any way I can fix that without having to undo the tweak?
Edit: Another question. Does using the hotspot this way go towards regular data usage?

Do you know a way to so this on android pie?

Does not work on on G965U, AT&T seems to have found out about the APN work around, they haven't blocked access to the APN settings yet though.
