Ive recently installed the MOAR MB1 ROM on my Sprint GS3 and its Awesome, everything seems to work but for some reason I CANNOT get the Wifi-Tether to work. The app runs and it all seems to VISUALLY be working but when i search for the SSID with my tablet or Laptop I cant find the network. Ive tried it Tethering as a locked and open network and the same problem persists. On the phone screen it shows upload and download speeds as usual but the net work cannot be found by other devices. If anyone has any info or the same problem please let me know , I love this ROM and dont want to get rid of it but Wifi-Tethering is a big part of my day so if I cant get it to work I will have to go back to another ROM. Thanks in advance.
Are you sure it flashed right? Try flashing it again, also check the roms md5sum to make sure it matches what the download site gives
Re flash a kernel. Might solve the problems
Make sure you went into tether app settings and selected device type as S3. If you have then just try to remove the app, reboot phone and reinstalling the app itself. Which can be found here ;

Hi all. I've looked for weeks through hundreds of threads for a solution to my problem but haven't found a solution. My apologies if one exists.
I am running an odin-rooted EL29 stock rom. I have downloaded various versions of the Wifi Tether app but am running 3.1-beta11 right now. I can get my Win7 Pro laptop to see my phone's wifi but cannot successfully connect to the internet with it. The wifi icon in the system tray continues searching after I tell it to connect.
I've followed the many tutorials on how to do this but none of them work. Does anyone here have any solutions for me to try? Please, of course!
Okay, so I just noticed the sticky at the top of the list about Wifi and others for EL29. All of these fixes look like brand new ROMs, though. I would rather not wipe everything and start clean if I don't have to.
I too had many problems with WiFi and WiFi tether. I actually went to the WiFi Tether home page and dl'd every version there. I paintakingly install each until I found the only one that worked was version 2.0.7. Only problem with this version is that encryption doesn't work.
Also, and I presume you are with Sprint, keep in mind that most of the newer ROMS have the Sprint HotSpot app working fully including encryption and for free.
I tether all my wifi machines to either WiFi Wireless Tether or Sprints HotSpot.
Good luck,
Here is link to WiFi Wireless Tether HOME: http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/downloads/list
IF Ive helped, HIT the Thanks button.....
Have you tried going into the settings and under change setup method change it from Auto to WEXT(adhoc)
I was having a similar issue and that seemed to work for me.

I don't think Beta 11 works. That was my experience. Beta 6 & 7 worked then I figured I should upgrade to the latest and tried 11 and it didn't work. Saw a few other people who also had problems with 11 and went back to either 6 or 7. I know for sure 6 & 7 work on Stock but haven't tested any other ROMs.
The Calkulin 2.8.1 Rom can be flashed without wiping your settings and data. Just wipe cache and Dalvic cache and flash the Rom. Make a Nandroid backup first of course. I have flashed this Rom over stock several times with no issues at all. The Rom has the Hotspot hack which lets you use the Sprint Hotspot software which works perfectly and Sprint has no idea that you are using it.
This is what worked for me on a stock rom, Odin rooted + CWM.

Hi Everyone,
My Phone:
Lt15i
Baseband 70
Stock kernel with CWM
Arconium ICS
My Problem:
After going to a custom rom and kernel from a complete stock setup I cannot get a data conection on my phone. All other features work perfectly (Call, sms, wifi etc) just no 3g/2g data connection, or icon in the status bar. the Settings menu indicates it is turned on.
I have exhausted all available options regarding kernel/rom troubleshooting including a complete reinstall on the above rom/kernel. I also experienced this problem with other roms and kernels.
During setup I follow the setup app and download the apn settings for Crazy Johns (my carrier) and they report as being installed.
My question:
If anyone who is using Crazy Johns currently and has it working could please post their apn settings (text or screen shot whatever is easier) so I can compare these to mine and change as necessary.
Any and all suggestions for fixing this are welcome.

Yeah, tried getting it sent to me, entering it in manually, even tried entering various variations of it I had found on the net. Still no connection.
Everything worked perfectly when it was stock, and when i first flashed a new rom onto the phone (arconium 8.2 i think) it worked then too. but every rom since it hasn't.
I'm still quite new to this and my knowledge isnt too deep yet.
Could flashing roms or kernels effect the serial numbers of my phone or something and now my carrier doesn't recognize my phone?
I do still receive calls and sms...
It's got me beat!

Hmmm I think you phone is fine must be just the settings.
What does it say? Any errors? Can you grab a log too see if it says something there. Check my Sig for how to get logs etc.

Well props to you, you were right in suggesting it was settings related. I tried a different sim card from a different carrier and after following the setup procedure I had a 3g data connection. This of course means the problem lies with my sim card/carrier settings and not the rom or kernel.
Hello ppl
I just bought my nexus a week back and i have this problem, i cant download a thing, not from the net, or playstore or even attachments when i am on 3g. When on wifi i can download everything but wifi is not available everywhere
Somebody give me a solution.
I have tried wiping, rooting, hard resets, everything
Sounds like a setting is wrong in your apn configuration, or something is wrong on your providers side. Call them and verify your data plan with your current phone. If that checks okay, You may need to tweak or change your APNs to tweak it.
http://nxwiki.blogspot.com/2012/02/vodafone-uk-apn-settings-for-android.html#.UFIPmI38u_w
the config is ok
i can surf the net and everything and the providers tell me that if i can surf then the problem will not be from their side
What else can i try?
If you are getting the "download unsuccessful" message there is only one solution I have found: AOKP. On all stock versions and a few other ROMs i tried the problem persists, clearing data from the "download" apps never worked for me like some people suggested. I'm sure there are other ROMs that aren't having the problem, but AOKP is the only one I have used that doesn't have the download unsuccessful error.
Check your data usage settings. The only box that should be checked it auto sync.
i dont know where it is right now, but i'm pretty sure i've seen the solution for this somewhere in the forums.
also, the solution is not AOKP; i'm on JRO03L built from src and i do not have the issue.

Hello there, I have been in the search for a perfect 4.4 ROM to work, I seem to be at an impass..
The 2 that I have tried, and Quite enjoyed so far are the Omni ROM and the Cyanogenmod 11
Both roms have the same issue, I cannot connect to a 4g LTE Sprint tower. I know the LTE Towers are working, My mom has the same phone, Sprint Note 2 and I have Mac's Rom on it and is picking up a very strong 4g Signal, yet my phone which sits literly right next to it, Refuses to get any 4g.. I drove around, went to known working areas, Never once did I snatch a 4g signal.
I played with the settings, it is set to LTE mode, I even tried Flashing as a fresh Install..
I tried flashing a Stock rom, but for some reason after it installs, and on boot up the phone does not work. I get a blank screen and literly nothing. I have to pull the battery to get it to turn back on. At that point I have to either Re-flash or restore a backup through CWM.
Any help would be appreciated, I miss my LTE Thanks
Same issue here. Not sprint though...
In cm11 set your mobile network type to cdma+lte/evdo or global. See if that works.
Next you can try to flash a touch wiz rom and do a hands free activation, verify lte works on the touch wiz rom, then flash to CM11 and see if you can connect to lte.

I have tried setting it to both. Global shows no signel what so ever on anything, I currently have it on cdma=lte/evdo and I just get a good 3g signal..
I might try that one out, Which is a good touch wiz rom to try and do that with ? I dont think I even tried a touch wiz rom yet

Personally I would recommend doing this:
Backup everything to your PC (both internal and external)
Delete the contents of the "0" folder on your internal card. If you use ES File Explorer, you'll need to enable root access, and then while in the app hit the menu button. The left menu will slide open and you'll see "Local".... underneath that you'll find the "0" folder. The problem is the way CM and Touchwiz mount the file system - they don't do it the same way. So when you do a factory reset in CWM, it doesn't clear out one of those folders. (I found this thread helpful - especially posts 2 & 4) I had major data problems on CM10 for 2-3 months, then I found this out.
After you do that go back to stock. Make sure you download the keep root file as well.
To play it safe, once stock, I highly recommend entering ##72786# in your dialer. The phone will grab the latest prl and update your profile. Whether or not you want to update the software (incl modem) is up to you, but I'd rather not get into the knox world.
Verify working gps. (I prefer "GPS Status")
Then go back to CM11.
I will try that out thanks

Update us on your progress.
If it works, consider hitting the thanks button - at the very least the guy in that other thread - I know I thanked him - his info saved me from going crazy!!!
I had working data (3g/LTE) on any touchwiz, but not on CM. It turned out that I had some corrupted data that wasn't getting deleted upon a factory reset. After I cleared out that data, everything was fine.
Hope your phone is back to normal!
Finally was able to download everything and run the tip, Thanks a lot dude! That helped and that did it ! I got 4g Back and everything is all peachy!!! Thanks again!
HELP! I have tried manny methods and fixes, but for some reason I cannot get my WiFi Tether to work!
The log shows, everything has passed, and it should be started. I do see the Download and Upload meters at the bottom, however it will not broadcast an SSID for my devices to see!!
I have tried manny settings on it, but in the past the ones that worked were
Generic ICS/JB (wlan1)
Netd(master)
WiFi Reload 2
But so far nothing is working. I have downgraded SuperSU, Downgraded the wifi app itself, tried diffrent versions nothing seems to work!!
Hell even the native tether on the ROM itself is bugging out. First time It connected, but the data would start freaing out, closing connects etc when a device was trying to use it. Now as soon as the tether enables it dissables itself. There is another wifi tether mod that came with the app, but I refuse to pay $15 for more than 5 min of ussage per day. I think that is just dumb.
This is what I have
Sprint Note 2 L900
Carbon Mod JB v1.6
Android 4.2.2
I really dont want to flash a diffrent rom. This is the FIRST one I have actually got it to work this far past a stock rom. For some reason every 4.4 ROM I tried, the modem does not work. I tried new modem drivers but still nothing. All other JB Rom's I have tried 4.1 - 4.3 each have diffrent issues for some reason. So I need to stick to this if at all cost. If you guys can reccomend a very good stable rom I might try it but I need WiFi on my devices! Help ! THanks
