Note 2 mobile hotspot - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have the AT&T Note 2 model SGH-I317 rooted using stock ROM.
Don't mean to be redundant if there is a post here that works. Haven't been successful at getting my mobile hotspot active using any methods I've seen on here. Keep getting AT&Ts screen saying I need to call them to add tethering. Anyone direct me?
Thanks

Wrong forum, this is the Galaxy note 2 forums. You will have better help on the Galaxy S 3 forums.

[Q] How to wifi tether with T-Mobile Note 2 on LTE?

I have unlimited data and my home internet is not doing great. So i want to wifi tether with the Note 2 and use the data as much as possible.
How can i tether without throttling or get blocked by T-Mobile?
Detailed instructions preferred, or links to proven methods, much appreciated

Most custom roms have it built in or reference solutions within their threads... technically there is no way around, not being noticed by the carrier so be weary, you can (if using it as much as possible) and will be shut down at some point... when did you get your GNII

[Q] 4.3 T-Mobile update anyone have news

ok so i want to know why it is that Sprint and AT&T have pushed 4.3 to the Note II but Verizon and T-Mobile act like what update that just seams a little odd if you ask me does anyone know the reason why we are still stuck in the out of the box 4.1 and dont have 4.2 or the 4.3 update is T-Mobile and Verizon both just not care anymore about the owners of the Note 2 and more worried about the Note 3 owners or just trying to push everyone on the Note 3 to make more money
T-Mobile is wifi calling, most likely.

This^ and modem (aka radio) in relation. Probably that is the delay. Your guess is as good as mine...
you know t-mobile has the note 3 with wifi calling so it cant be that hard to fix the radio i could maybe see i just think like verizon they are trying to drum up note 3 sells

Unrestricted Native Tethering

Hey guys I'm looking for a little help. I'm looking to leave Sprint and come to Tmobile for obvious reasons. My question is I saw that Tmobile has unlimited data but limits your tethering to 4 gigs. I've noticed that some ROMs comes with Unrestricted Native Tethering. Does this mod bypass that limit? Because I tether a lot. Thanks in advance
Yes, there are roms that have unrestricted tethering. I'm currently using Darthstalker V7. Works great.

Thanks for the response. That's all I needed to hear to make the switch!
As long as you have great t-mobile service in your area you won't regret it.

If you just root your can use the app below. Works on kit kat and does not use your tethered plan.
Check out "WiFi Tether Router"

How do I enable Hotspot?

Hi guys,
I have Note 4 SM-N910P Sprint unlocked, currently rooted. Wanted to know how I can enable Hotspot on it.
Using Stock Firmware Marshmallow 6.0.1.
Don't you have Hotspot and Tethering under Connections in the Settings Menu? If so it is self explanatory.

That's the problem, I don't. It seems to be locked by Sprint.
Not sure why, it might not be part of your plan.

A whole bunch of ROMs have hotspot enabled. If you want mostly stock, I would flash:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/no...t/05-15-17-debloated-deodexed-rooted-t3607029
Just follow the instructions closely.
If you are more adventurous, check out all the other fantastic ROMs in the development section.
I've got the same issue with my Note 4. I get an error saying I need to activate the hotspot service. What's the deal? I've never had a phone that did this. I am stuck using stock firmware since my service provider is TextNow and it won't function with any custom ROM I've tried.
I contacted TextNow and they explained that TextNow relies upon Sprint services in the background to function.
Anyone know of a way to bypass this?
