Whats your favorite wifi tether app for rooted phones, that's confirmed working.

For those using a windows computer that keep getting rerouted try this:
download ultrasurf (Google it)
Run it and wait till it connects.
Done. Enjoy browsing..

it doesn't work with T-Mobile, because there is the Mobile Hotspot app...If someone can remove that from the device, I tried it with root but it didn't work...but if you used the international version of your rom....then it works....between International has no wifi calling...in case you either live in the no signal zone, or you are traveling abroad....

That works with MYROM version 2.1 with the APN Fix. I using that combination for the past 2 weeks with no problems.
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda premium

Just use the treVee mod (if your rooted) that way you dont have to change or delete your apns and it even comes with a little widget to turn it on and off.
you have to change some of the settings in the app in order to get it to work properly, pm me if u wanna know the settings

easy tether app on the market
download chrome for your laptop/desktop
download user agent chrome extension
change it to a mobile browser
done.

MMS issue on Solavei

I have a solavei SIM, and have for quite some time, never had any issues. All of a sudden I can't send mms, I've tried all the apn's and even factory reset, all the way up to odin the phone all the way back. I still can't get mms to work. Someone please help. The phone is tmobile s3, locked, never had any issues, not rooted.

Sorry, never heard of solavei....
If it just happened randomly, then it's probably on the carrier side. Call and see if they made any changes recently that could affect this. Otherwise, I'm just not sure.

I don't I'm puzzled by this. I had someone look into it for me. The only thing they could come up with was my phone is T-Mobile kicked do they can't help me.. yet they're a T-Mobile mvno
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app

I'm actually wondering if it could be T-Mobile's fault....sorta. with all of their recent changes and network upgrades, couldn't it be possible that some important things are now different, but your carrier has no idea about it as they may not have been informed? Or maybe something like this wasn't expected. It's just a guess of course, but I know the primary apn changed in markets where T-Mobile deployed LTE. Maybe other things changed too?
I know you said you tried the different apn's, but try the file linked below. Rename the current apns-conf.xml with .bak and copy this one over. It's in /system/etc/ I believe. Then reboot and see if it helps. It's all I can think to try right now. But this has only the new T-Mobile apn. All others are removed.

I'm using Solavei just fine make sure you APNS are setup properly and that you save and select the apn to use. Dont just press back. You can download the solavei app to set up your phone if you still cant figure it out.

That kind of sounds like it could be an account problem, just a guess though, but it would make sense. Maybe go to a local store and ask.If you can try one of their SIM cards in your device.

If you're stock, not rooted, there's not a lot you can do. Chances are it's an issue on the carrier side still. Have you tried your SIM in another device? Tried a new, or someone else's SIM?

Well I can still send mms if I use a third party app, without having to use Wi-Fi.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk now Free

Usually a stock sms/mms app sends via the carrier, so it goes over a secure line through their servers....or something similar to that. Hard to explain. 3rd party apps don't care about your carrier and just send over the internet, be you connected via WiFi or mobile data.

Fixed it! Had to modify the solavei apn. Basically mms proxy had to be black, had to change authentication type to none, add the ,supl,mns,admin,hipri whatnot. Basically even though this was suppose to be imei specific, it was incorrect.

Here's a preemptive answer to a question that's been asked countless times about this ROM- "How do I change the battery icon?"
Assuming you installed OGBatteryMod, tap on the battery icon in your status bar 3 times and you'll be presented with a list of many icons and can make your selection there.

I have been tethering for a long time and always had worked without a problem so here is the thing...
I have Nationwide 4G unlimited data plan but it doesn't allow me to tether by default so on my old phone Note II when I rooted and installed another ROM the tethering was fixed.. I don't know how.. yes yes I know that I have to switch Us.Agent.... I do switched just like I always did but it's just not working and by not working I mean it takes me to the T-Mobile page

OK try this. If you are using xposed and modules, you can use wanam and click on system you will then see an option for tethering provision. Disable it and reboot then try again. Let me know if it works.

Treve mod has a native framework tether option but you would still have to use the app to tether. I will look into it first thing in the morning. There's really no reason for it not to work right after you flash the ROM. I use treve mod but the native method also works. The only difference between your plan and mine is that I have true unlimited. That means that I have support for 2gigs of hotspot and unlimited data. The modded tethering provision.apk from TheSickness is working right out of the box for me. I can use the hotspot as much as I need.
BTW. On chrome you can change your user agent under developer tools. Look here http://www.technipages.com/google-chrome-change-user-agent-string

Sent from my SGH-M919 using XDA Free mobile app

This is what I would try next if I was having your problem. I would save the tethering provision.apk from v4 to my SD card. Then I would flash v8 again and once it boots up I would replace the v8 tethering provision.apk with v4 and set permissions to rw- r-- r--. It's definitely worth a try. I wouldn't be surprised if it works!

OK. Download es file manager if you don't already have it and give it root access. Go to system/app and copy the tethering provision.apk and paste it somewhere where it will be easy for you to find it. Like the download folder. Then flash v8 and open es file manager go to system/app again and delete tethering provision.apk. now go to wherever you saved the v4 apk and copy it then paste it in system/app. Long press on the apk and click on properties. Then just change permissions to rw- r-- r-- and reboot. You should be able to tether now.

[Q] Traveling abroad and GPS?

Hello!
I'm in St. Martin (in the Caribbean) and can't get a GPS lock for the life of me. Obviously i'm on tmobile so i'm enjoying the free unlimited data and texting. I can pull up maps, they load fine. But i can't get a lock. Other people on the island have phones which get GPS and there are GPS units which function just fine. Some folks here from the US with iphones also get a lock. Am i missing a setting on my phone or something?

I have successfully rooted my SM-N900T Note 3 and have installed CM11/OnePlus One ROM and it's awesome. The problem I'm having is having a solid LTE connection. Before all of the rooting, my network was perfect. Now when I make a call, it throws my connection into "H" signal and it makes my call quality bad.
Any suggestions or fixes to this? Anyone is welcome.
P.S: I've tried manually setting up a T-Mobile APN and it's done nothing, so that's out of the question.

CyanogenMod doesn't support VoLTE yet. So when you place a call it drops to H...nothing you can do about it besides go back to stock rom.

Thank you for your info on it. I think there's a fix for it though. I have 3 updates for CM, but it won't let me update and tells me update has been aborted. I may have to manually install the update.

I have a note 3 and a oneplus one. The latest cm roms for the OPO, including the under development lollipop cm12, does not have VoLTE.
