Can you use the app Wifi Tether? I know I had issues with the JellyBean built in hotspot. It would work for my TF700 but not for my windows laptop.

You have a couple of options. They are detecting it based on your user agent coming from your computer browser. If you use Chrome, just download any of these user agent switchers, https://chrome.google.com/webstore/search/user-agent switcher, and switch to some version of Safari.
Most mobile browsers send Safari as part of their string, so you should be able to use it without a problem. I am looking into a proxy on the phone that is easy to set up, and then you won't have to do this workaround. I will update here if I can.
Please thank me if this works.

Again, if user agent isn't the problem -which it obviously is not if you are tethering to another android device- try wifi-tether or another 3rd party app as opposed to the stock hotspot app. Wifi tether works fine for me.

The reason why you're being blocked is because your on the unlimited data plan with T-mobile you don't have access to WiFi tether on the unlimited data you can switch to one that's not unlimited high speed and you'll get your tether back.

Bluetooth tether?

Anyone able to connect from their nexus to a Bluetooth hot spot? Created one from my S4, but nexus sees it as a phone only.

Used it all day yesterday with my SIII ... worked great.....enabled BT tethering on SIII, paired, checked box that said "Use for Internet access" on the Nexus and boom......good to go........
Yes I'm not getting that use Internet access checkbox.. Hmm. I see it on the S4 side, but not on nexus
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
What do you see on the nexus side when the S3 is connected via bluetooth? what do you see when you click on the device? All I see is unpair and rename...nothing about internet access. On the s4, I see internet access profiles. How are you tethering from the s3?
