rom: AOPK JB build 1
Do you need an app to get the wifi tether to work or does the native tether option in the settings work without telling your provider. Sorry if that has been asked before. I couldn't find it using search.
Custom ROMs should all have native tethering that works fine. Why would they leave in the carrier flag bits?

I am running rooted stock 4.0.4 IMM76K with FC04/FC05 radios on a Verizon Nexus. I can not get the stock tethering or wifi tether to work. Both turn on without errors but none of my computers see the signal. I have always used wifi tether on other phones and not seen an issue. I have searched around but I can't seem to find anyone with my issues. Any suggestions?
I would try using an app like foxfi or pdanet. Both work well for wifi tethering. Also, both have the ability to hide tethering usage. You may have to sideload these apps, i believe Verizon wont let you get to them anymore. Also, I would no blow through my data allowence if I were you. This might cause them to get look a little more carefully at your data usage.
Try tetherbee.
It worked for me.
U must search online for it though.

Verizon still allows my mom to tether for free.
Even she'll get in trouble if she gets caught.
Would this be a rom or kernel issue? It doesn't seem to be a application issue? Many others have used both the options I have tried already without issues on the Nexus

AOKP unlocks and bypasses the tether message/error.
It's the stock rom issue it is disabled from what I was told.. I use aokp 39 using the built in tether and it works great

You need to set Wifi tether settings as follows:
Device Profile - Samsung Galaxy Nexus (CDMA/LTE)
Setup Method - Netd (master)
Routing Fix - make sure its checked.
Hope this helps

I forgot to mention that I installed a rom mod to enable native tethering.
I made a blunder. Apparently wifi tether didn't like the space I put in the SSID name.

Hi
I'm trying to get wifi tethering going on my new Galaxy S3 (T999) but not having much luck.
I'm using a T-mobile branded phone, but am using it with Mobilicity in Canada.
-When I use the setting to toggle wifi hotspot on, it just immediatly toggles off.
- Tried Wifi Tether for Root Users but no networks show up on the other device.
-Tried 1 click wifi tether and it kind of worked. The network showed up on the other device, but when I tried to load a webpage, it couldn't do it. Not sure if any data is getting through.
I am rooted, but am using stock firmware (T-mobile Jelly Bean)
Thanks
I know CM10 wife tethering works out of the box. Try it!

Changing the rom might be a bit severe, but I could try it.
It would be nice to get rid of all that T-mobile stuff on there.
Any other ideas how to get tethering working?
Tmo block tether on jelly bean no matter you're rooted or not. It doesn't work on mine either. but there is a way around. look it up in another thread.

Thanks for the reply. I tried it again on another device and it is working with 1 click teather. My transformer Prime works, it's my PS Vita that doesn't. Oh well, I can live with that.
Carrier: Sprint
phone: Samsung Nexus 1.3, My nexus has received the 4.2 update and I cant use my wifi tether to hotspot. I won't stay checked in settings. Does anyone know if there is a to cure for that?
I have rooted my unit already. I have uninstalled wifi tether and reinstalled it.no go still

you either need the customized version of wifi tether or you need to use the built-in tether tool. customized version is kicking around here on the forums, I think I found it over in the CM.1 Nightlies thread myself.
I'm using "Hotspot Toggle Widget" by Fattin (4.2.2 | Verizon).
The app does not provide hotspot functionality per se. It is a widget to toggle the built-in hotspot on and off. It bypasses the annoying carrier check that checks if you have a tether plan or not.
Great for those of us who are still enjoying grandfathered unlimited data.
The app also does not require root.

Thank you

my carrier-sprint --must have a hook in their version of JB 4.2.1........I am wanting to enjoy my unlimited also like before the individual charges and money came into play... I use to use my G1(HTC Dream) and other Android phones to access the net for what I needed back in the dayzz...I know its possible. I just need the guidance
If someone is interested, here is the solution for using the USB tethering on Mac (instead of using the WiFi hotspot)

K.... I finally figured it out. I thank you guys for your input. I got Sourcery 5.1 installed and I got my hotspot working with no flaws...my next involved mod is gonna be on a Alps Mid 7 dual sim card unit running 4.04-GSM/FM Transceiver... Im thinking active frequency jumping is what I want my radio to do.. This is the place for it to be done. Ideas ROMs and kernels will be appreciated

Native Hotspot should be working on NuSense already...
really? i love your rom santod but the hotspot wouldn't connected me at all. would turn on and broadcast ssid but no internet access, using your latest 7.3
nevermind after you replied i did a wipe and reinstall of 7.3 and the hotspot is working fine now! :good:
It works on EclipticONE by Hawknest

Just out of curiosity, will the native hotspot in your 7.3 make me have to sell my firstborn to Verizon? I have a data plan but didnt pay for the hotspot plan and was hoping rooting was a way to get around that.
Rooting will bypass any VZW nonsense.
I ran Andy's BoneStock ROM for a bit and native worked fine
Hawk's ran Barnacle and native fine
I'm running Viper now and it's dicey with either, sometimes they work sometimes not.
YMMV

No you don't have to pay anything extra to Verizon to use the Hotspot in my roms.
You will still be subject to the data limit that your plan carries though.
Meaning, you can't use 10GB's while tethering if your plan is only for 2GB's of data.
You will be charged for anything you use above your limit.
hi everyone. did a search, didnt find what i was looking for. i've been using my wifi hotspot so much that i use up my date half way before the month ends every month. and my carrier doesnt have an option to increase hotspot data. so i decided to root my phone and try the wifi tether apps that are available in the play store. they work, but not as good as the stock wifi hotspot that my phone comes with. it doesnt even compare. is there an app that i dont know about or rom that works as good as the stock wifi hotspot on my phone? also the usb tether works, i have no issues with that. the problem is, i wanna use the wifi for my smart tv and xbox one, but they dont support the usb tether that i'm using with foxfi. thanks in advance. i'm using nexus 5x android 7.0 build n5d91L.
I dont know if im right, but PureNexus ROM has unlocked WIFI Hotspot. Im on this ROM but i cant test it for You (unlimited data on hotspot).

I see you mentioned a November build installed in your device. If you want to try PureNexus, be aware that ROM uses the December build which is based on official Android 7.1.1 and not 7.0 like the one you mentioned. You would need to update your bootloader, radio and vendor accordingly to avoid issues with that ROM. How-tos are everywhere, including in that thread (use Search).
I don't quite understand your original problem, since your WiFi hotspot tethering was working with the built in app. Do you have limited tethering but otherwise unlimited data? Did the PureNexus ROM hide this tether usage somehow?
I'm having this same issue, my phone won't even turn hotspot on with FoxFi. Its a brand new phone but decided to go ahead and root it.
Trying to find an app or build.prop line that will re-enable hotspot on Android 5.1.1.
