Hi,
New here. Just rooted Koodo T989D and applied latest Jedi Mind Trick. I'm having issues with using the mobile hotspot with my Win 7 laptop. My laptop connects to the wireless hotspot on my phone, and my phone is getting 4G connectivity with no issues, but I can't access the internet with the laptop (i.e. there's some disconnect between the hotspot and 4G). I wasn't having any issues with stock rom.
I have tried:
Flashing both the Telus/Koodo and the T-Mobile 4.1.2 MC6 radio
Disabling WiFi Calling, WiFi Direct, and WiFi Direct Share
Using FoxFi instead of the T-Mobile hotspot app
Nothing has worked. Only thing I haven't tried is removing the T-Mobile hotspot app, which I can't find to remove.
Any other suggestions?
Tmobile-based roms block tethering. Try this:

Thanks... that worked. I had seen that info before, but for some reason I didn't think it would apply to me on Koodo/Telus in Canada since I've never even heard of tether blocking. But, I guess, as you said, JMT is T-Mobile based.
Thanks again!
No problem. Nice to see some fellow Canadians on here

Check out the sprint hotspot hack. Sorry for no link. Think it might be in the themes/app section

The previous 2 posts handle all of your needs. Hotspot hack is only for 3g right now Wifi Tether works great for 4g needs

wifi tether
Any of these work in non-adhoc mode? Trying to get my HP Touchpad (cyangenmod) to work with it.

Anyone running the calukin (sp?) rom and can get their wifi tether to work? I've asked in the rom thread, but no reply.

STOCK E4GT with root... when I try to load any version of Wifi Tether it makes my wifi radio not work again at ALL until I uninstall wifi tether AND run another app that utilizes the wifi radio like the kies app after a restart. This is consistent after 4 different version attempts. I do NOT want to try to the deodexed hotspot hack until the LOS fix is official, because I do not want to run anything but stock until then. Anyone in my boat that has figured out how to make it all play nicely?

Let me see if I have what you said right. Without any tether app installed, just the sprint hotspot, the hotspot works. But then if you install wireless or wifi tether it makes the sprint hotspot not work?
I had the same issue. Until I did the same.

...not entirely. I mean the wifi could not connect to an access point until I ran the kies app. Did not try the stock tether app, because I don't want to pay for a service that I may use a couple times a year.
Also, seeing your sig you may be the person to help me. What is the best speed controller/motor combo for an old school RC10T that I want to get going again in a big way? Reverse stopped working a while ago and I am pretty sure the motor is shot as well. Been seeing some people clock ridiculous speeds with some of the new repower kits out there.
Never have been an electric guy, always nitro. But the brushless stuff is where its at and running lipo batts. Castle creations is one of the best companies out along with teken. Pricey stuff but they are well worth it. If you want more shoot me a pm.

Yesterday i recieved the notification that 4.1.2 was ready for install on my stock yakju galaxy nexus. After the install i noticed i could no longer tether (that same day i had tethered my xoom over wifi pre update). Today i tried to tether with wifi, usb, and bluetooth and not one of them will work. I've reset the computers/tablets, i've reset the phone, and i'm 100% stock with no root.
Has anyone else experienced a similar issue? my googling has turned up with nil.
I'm debating doing a factory reset, but would prefer not to if anyone has some suggestions i can try. Does anyone have a suggestion?

I had the same problem. However, FoxFi just updated their app to work with 4.1.2. I also got the FoxFi addon. Not sure if the add makes the difference or not.

hSo it's not working with stock but it works with foxfi?
edit: Strike that, just tried foxfi, no dice. I also tried a factory reset... no dice. i'm going to try a full flash of takju.
edit2: double strike that, just tried the full flash and nothing
Tethering works fine for me on 4.1.2, i just used it and it was as good as always

I have the same problem. After 4.1.2 update my wifi tethering stopped working. I have still no idea and I'm looking around. Keep the thread updated if you find a solution!
Wifi tethering won't work for me but Bluetooth will.

i'm curious, what frequencies does your provider use? mine is 850/1900 HSPA. i think. My theory is that it's only broken for some frequencies, which could be valueable debug info for the google people
My carrier uses 850/1900 3G bands. My issue is my tablet sees the connection and connects but the wifi icon never goes blue so it never gets internet.

Problem solved
I have solved the problem using "ISWAT tether unlocker" on google play
Open the app, click on the button "Unlock tethering", wait for the video completion, ad the tethering magically works, try it and let me know
Have tried foxfi, wireless tether for root users ,and WiFi tether barnacle and having no luck. I am rooted and on stock no ROM. I can connect my nexus 7 to the tether network but it doesn't actually receive internet access

I just got my Nexus today, so I apologize if I am way off base here... but why not use the Tethering & Portable Hotspot function that is built into the stock 4.1.1 settings? Just to test it, both my wife's phone and iPad both connected to my tether, and were able to pull down webpages just fine. In case you didn't see it, under More... in the wireless & networks section, you will find Tethering.
If you're on Sprint, flash the tether.zip in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1658288
This will allow you to use the built in tethering without needing to pay for the hotspot feature. You'll need a custom recovery.
I don't pay for any sort of hotspot feature. The FCC ruling forced carriers like Verizon to not charge for it, and fined them over 1 million bucks for doing so. http://www.extremetech.com/electronics/133810-how-everyone-benefits-from-verizons-fcc-mandated-free-tethering
Just rooted my S3. It has stock Jelly Bean installed.
Only reason I rooted is because every now and then I have need to tether.
In the past, on other phones, I've used the Wifi Tether for Root Users app and loved it. However, when I run the app, non of my PCs see the network at all. The phone looks like it's working but the laptops don't see any network.
I saw a bunch of people post about the similar thing on their google code page.
Is there a fix for this or a different program I need to use? Any help would be great.
Thanks!
Wifi tether treve mod?

I rooted my GS3 this morning and verified it is rooted with a root verifier. I'm on android version 4.1.2 with a Sprint GS3. I've tried a few different hotspot apps, foxfi, wifi tether, wireless tether, and a few others, and none work. Wifi Tether says it starts with errors, but when I go to view the error log, it doesn't exist. I never see the SID on my other devices either. I don't even have the option in my stock rom to go try to turn wifi tether on, just usb and bluetooth. Any suggestions? I just want to be able to tether to my Nexus 10, but am pretty stumped. I don't want to flash a custom rom, just keep the stock rooted one and be able to tether.
Was able to get it working with a newer version of wifi tether, 3.3 beta 2 synergized, and had to tell it to use the galaxy S4 profile. The gs3 profile would not work but the GS4 one does and allows me to tether with it.
Why not just use the modded sprint hot spot app since your rooted. Works best.
