And are you using the WiFi Tether for Root (which also did not work on LJ7 or are you using the version that was modified to work by TrevE?

This was posted about a couple days ago. I believe the fix was to turn off encryption

Under Settings, Click on More..
There is a Mobile Hotspot feature.. No need for Wifi tether
I used the Wifi Tether app on 4.12 and after the upgrade I am no longer able to use the app to tether. After a while I got the Sprint Hotspot app working but I would rather use the Wifi Tether app to connect as it offers more control.
What could block the app from starting a hotspot?

give it some time, 4.3 is only a few weeks "old" here.
Its going to take a little time to redo the code, as many changes were made going from 4.1.2 to 4.3
Which WiFi Tether app you were using?

Had the same issue here. I was using WiFi tether TrevE mod.

I used pretty much everything out there and in pretty much all configuaration settings - Nothing. Still, got the internal hotspot working but I wish I could see again what I transmit

You guys can just use the hacked native hotspot
It's a lot more stable too

I’m using the Hotspot mod by Rocket321 (MK3 Odex). On a stock rooted 4.3 ROM. After being idle or having no connections the hotspot app is turning off. Is this normal? Can I force it to stay enabled?

Yeah TrevE Mod no good on 4.3 Stock CF Auto Root
I really like this app but I guess like someone else said here, there's something not jiving with the code for 4.3?? any clues as to when an updated version will be released? I did the OTA update lost root, re rooted and now TrevE Mod doesnt work. Help!

Is there a way to just get the hack stock hot spot without having to use that ROM? Does this only work if you're using that ROM that goes with it? Can it be used on Stock Samsung Rom 4.3?

You need to have a custom recovery to flash it, but other than that you can use it on stock MK3, no need to be on that rom
Just make sure you flash the right version (odex/deodex)

Trying it now. I flashed CWM v6.x something and installed the odexed version (correct one) and now phone is rebooting. Lets see how this goes...lol
Lost root upon rebooting the phone. Back to where I was on STOCK RECOVERY and STOCK Samsung MK3 ROM. How can I retain root, and have CWM recovery? I tried SkunkApes method, that way gives custom recovery but i lose root. CF auto root gives root, but stock recovery. ????

While in recovery, flash aroma file browser and delete these files
Code:
/system/etc:
install-recovery.sh
recovery-resource.dat
Custom recovery should stick after that
For su, flash the supersu recovery install zip
I know everyone here wants a free solution but if you're rooted and really need free WiFi tethering I got WiFi Tether Router from the Google Play store and it works great. It's two bucks but it's worth two bucks to me. Especially since I didn't install a custom recovery so I have no way to flash anything. This app just works with your rooted phone.
I remember all the headaches of getting TrevE working when I was in 4.1.2. Two bucks is worth the aggravation of not having to go through that again.

In case anyone has trouble getting this working, these are the settings I used, which were supplied by the developer:
For Samsung Galaxy S3 use this config:
Interface wlan0
Method 3 - HostApda
Channel 1
Encryption wpa2-psk
Drivers nl80211
"HostApd Patch" <- UNCHECKED
"No Firmware Reload" <- UNCHECKED
Again, not free but for two bucks and no more headaches, it was well worth it for me.
Forgive me if this is answered somewhere else.. I can't find it.
If one were to use the stock hotspot app.. How would/does the carrier track hotspot usage? Additionally, is there a better app to use which prevents being tracked?
Thanks in advance.
I've posted this before but I caved in and bought WiFi Tether Router for two bucks - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.snclab.wifitetherrouter&hl=en
It works flawlessly on rooted 4.3 and is well worth it for two dollars. I know we all like free options but sometimes a cheap app is worth the investment. If you find a good modded wifi app you should probably make a donation to the developer anyway so call it even.
First I searched through the forum and couldn't find anything addressing this. I am running stock 4.3 rooted. I can't seem to find a wifi tether app that works. I downloaded one from http://android-wifi-tether.googlecode.com but when it enables I get an error and no wifi shows for me to connect to. Any help or a good tether app would be greatly appreciated.

I don't know of any wifi tether app that actually works on stock 4.3 (MK4) ROM. As far as I know, you will need to be rooted and flash a stock deodexed ROM and flash the hot spot hack or flash a custom ROM that has it enabled already. There was a wifi tether app that people claimed worked on the stock 4.2 ROM but I'm not sure if it required root permissions or not. I would just root and flash a custom ROM or a stock deodexed stock rom then flash the hot spot hack from LorJay's thread in development forum. It's the best way to accomplish what you're trying to achieve in my opinion.
