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.

I've flashed Evervolv-Acies-1.0.1b3-supersonic to my EVO but can't get the WiFi tether app to work. When i "start tether" i get the error "tether started with errors". I dont know if the rom isnt compatible or the kernel.. any suggestions/ fixes?
Does your built in hotspot work? Tethering has been very shotty with gingerbread, it works for a few people, but I'd recommend using the built in hotspot, or trying using the older like 2.5 version of the tether if you can find it.

No, its hacked, and once you root your phone you can use it for free, so you'll be fine.

Aye aye, glad we got it solved.
Hello all,
I am about to set back into the android world and had a quick question on the G2. I know in the past the G2 had wifi calling and tmobile tethering. Looks like (I did some searching) in the past it was free to tether although HTC said with the ICS updates it will be gone. Thing is the G2 does not get the official ICS. If I flash an ICS rom will there be free tethering? And I assume the wifi calling uses minutes but gives you the high quality of a call via wifi.
I will probably be adding the $30 prepaid plan for 100 minutes, unlmt data and messaging..
Thanks!

I haven't used wifi calling but free tethering still works the same way it did in gingerbread.
Tethering still works, and there is a mod to get Wifi Calling working on ICS roms.

Mod for that is in my signature which I use on EliteRom. And I can verify the mod works as I've used it several times.
If you want a ROM that already has the Wifi Calling baked in, then you can try Andromadus Mimicry. You'll have to update the radio to the required version but that's a simple thing. Links to both the radio and the ROM are in my signature.
Thanks folks.
My craiglister backed out today when I told them I was going to need to check the ESN before buying (hmm sketchy huh). So I am still on the hunt. Thanks for the info, I will definitely revisit shortly.

Some people just don't like too many questions, they just wana get rid of it.
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?

Just wondering if there are any MODs that remove the tethering limit that T-Mobile gives ?
on my Nexus 5, i was able to tether over 25-30GB a month without a problem.
now im back to my 5GB limit ..
Thanks .
Im not bashing you I say to each his own but this is why they made tethering caps to begin with.

Some rules are just made to be broken, if I stream Netflix all month long , what's the difference if I buy a mini HDMI cable and connect to my TV ,.. than to simply tether. ?
Thanks jp

Cool. Thanks. I'll try em.
I wonder if the same flashable zip I used on the nexus 5 would work on other devices ?
Don't wanna end up with a bricked device.
No it will not work tether. They changed. It on lg g3
Most of the MODs don't work on the G3, so far, at least none that I have seen/tried so far. It has to do with the way the G3 uses the APN and IPv6 (IPv4 works, but LTE is spotty and it also breaks tether, from what I've read), ThePagel can explain is far better than I, if he so wishes.
The best way to get it to is via the app "Wifi Tehther App", which works perfectly and masks your tether use as mobile data use and not as hotspot use.

I can vouch for the wifi tether app. I've been using it relentlessly and I've had zero issues.

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.
