IIRC Odex is the one that should work for entirely stock rooted, correct?

Yes. If any doubt exists...You can boot to twrp and before you flash the zip do the following...go to mounts and put a check mark in system. Then go to advanced and select file manager. Navigate to /system/app and rename wifirouter.apk and it's odex to have the .bak extension. Then flash.

Thats what I did, clearly I missed something.... It causes the force close issues and I had to revert the files. No permanent harm just frustrating.

Just do the edit your self its easy, no need for a flashable. Just use a root file explorer to go to /system/customize/ACC/ and open default.xml in a text editor. Almost to the bottom you will see
Code:
<app name="Tethering_provision">
<item type="integer" name="TetheringGuard_Rule">1</item>
Change the 1 to a 0. Save exit and reboot. The stock wifi hotspot should now work.

Will take a look at this tomorrow when I can get my hands on my friends phone again.
I had the same problem with the phone app force closing, then realized it was because I had used the wrong version. Don't use the one from the first post. There's a link - post 21 I think.

Ok i went into system media and ive got a audio folder then two other .emd files i think i might have deleted my vanir boot animation on accident cause now ive just got the default android boot animation. So i can just put the bootanimation.zip in that folder and it should work?
Absolutely. That's always where they were located when I ran AOSP roms.

The following Mod will unlock all APNs for editing, and allow you to tether using the Stock Built-in tethering:
For this to work, you must be rooted, and have busybox installed.
This is confirmed working on T-Mo software version 1.12.531.19 It may work for others, but they should probably have their own Settings.apk mod done to avoid issues.
People were having problems installing this via ADB, so I have made a flashable zip to simplify the process:
Step 1:
Flash this via recovery: http://www.cheatersedge.org/android/m8/TetherZip.zip
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Step 2:
Once your phone has rebooted, go into Settings -> Mobile Data -> Access point names.
Select the one for "T-Mobile Data" Which should now be editable.
Scroll down, and change the APN protocol from IPv6 to IPv4.
Select Menu and hit "Save"

OLD Instructions:
Step 1:
Download the following modded Settings.apk to the root of /sdcard/: http://www.cheatersedge.org/android/m8/Settings.apk

Step 2 (Via ADB):
Code:

cp /sdcard/Settings.apk /system/app/Settings.apk

mv /system/app/Settings.odex /system/app/Settings.odex.bak

How would you go about getting this to work on a deodexed ROM? I just attempted the walkthrough with ARHD 3.4 and it didn't work, my APN settings are still locked

You would enter those commands through the command prompt where you have your android sdk set up.

ARHD probably has a different Settings.apk. The APN unlocking magic is in my modded Settings.apk. I have patched it to simply ignore the "readonly" value in telephony.db.

I'm assuming you'll still have to use a VPN to encrypt your HTTP headers, or spoof your useragent to show up as a mobile device. Otherwise, T-Mobile will mark unencrypted traffic as tethering anyway. I would love to be wrong on this one, but I don't think it's _that_ simple otherwise.
Also, I find the replacing and modifying of files to be easier in Recovery than when booted into the system. System has some annoying write protection to deal with.

User agent spoofing is still required. Particularly if you are trying to use IE. Just spoof the same Desktop UA string that mobile chrome spoofs, and you are all set.
You can also change the protocol by doing:
Code:
sqlite3 /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/telephony.db
update carriers set protocol='IPV4V6' where protocol = 'IPV4';

What is the best way to install Busybox so I can get this working? I get crashes/reboots/errors when trying to install busybox.
I assume that because the system is read-only.

I can do a writeup if you need one,
But for now: Hint: look for the string "readonly" in Settings.

You'll need root. Grab the busybox installer from the google play store, it's the easiest way
I tried this and it isn't working for some reason. As far as I can tell all commands worked, but the APN is still locked. Running the same software version as the OP. Rooted/Busybox are installed.

No, that is fine, it should have worked then. Verify that Settings.apk contains a classes.dex, and delete the Settings.odex file.

It turns out that GalaxyTools is not working for me either. Since I had root, I had to ODIN the NK2 tar file to my phone and not take OTA. I then factory reset the phone for a clean start. I did notice that the APN is greyed out when I try access it using ##DATA# command with MSL to edit. Maybe something is not letting GalaxyTools edit the APN setting.
Finally decided to do it using SQLite editor and rebooted. Native hotspot is now working.
I am sure GalaxyTools will soon get updated to accommodate this limitation.
In the meantime, just use SQLite.

Yes just uncheck auto reboot in GalaxyTools and it will be ok, next update I'll make it check after it writes the change before I have it reboot It seems for some the root request is just not passed or granted fast enough, I will make sure in next version this cannot happen.
