Thats a lot of data. I've gone as high as half that in a couple days. But some people have been saying that it's to obvious because your phone can't possibly burn through that much data. So eventually you might get dropped for violating the terms of use agreement. Idk. This is what I've been told. Just a heads up. That's allot. Plus I fear the day they do away with unlimited data because its used as a home internet service. ... Just saying... That's alot of fuggin data for two hours on a smartphone!! Haha lmao. See if you can hit a hundred!
I tethered my g3 with a playstation 4 and downloaded a full game to see if it would let me without hitting a limit, Thanks for the heads up. Have a few games to download in coming months I'll see if I can hit 100gigs.

My phone shows no data whenever I switch it to ipv4 anybody else having that issue?
data
I set everything up just as your instructions say and so far so good! I am however using skydragon rom with there kernal as a note. What im wondering is how do i tell the difference between using data and using hotspot data? How can i be 100% sure im not going to get a enormous bill at the end of this months cycle?
If you use prime thether mod and use a butt load of data t mobile can't do anything about it. There plan says UNLIMITED DATA! I know Netflix uses a lot, so it's hard for them to figure out on what your using the data for. I've gone as far as 90gb of data last month two months and nothing.
i cant seem to get this Mod to work. i switch roms switch modems. tried both, 10m and 10c and cant get it to work switch apn to Apn to APV4 and cant get it to work. i restarted my computer, my computer connects but there is no DATA coming thru, i tried with other devices, they connect but no data!. I Gave up.
Question. Is the tethering supposed to turn off automatically if it isn't being used? Never noticed this before but lately when I'm steaming to my tablet at work using this mod, if i pause what I'm watching the tethering is turned off. I'm usually gone about 15 minutes when it happens. No biggie i guess but i never noticed this before. Thanks.
SOAB. I just saw there was an option set by default to turn off after 10 minutes. Nm my Question.
Hey guys jusst switched from having samsung line up For many years.

This mod deserves a good donation 'i almist upgraded my hotspot untill i saw this ... Anyone gets a spare min i coukd use some help. Thanks

Anyone using a custom rom and still have the hot spot bypass?
I've been using the latest CM11 build, and I hit 270GB last month, so it's been working with other roms for me.
Is there a way to add a Hotspot Quick settings icon?
trouble flashing 10c
I have been trying to flash this mod for the last couple of days and get a failed message in twrp everytime. I tried renameing the file to simply "primetether.zip" but continued to get the same failed message. Any ideas of what i may be doing wrong? any help is appreciated. I am currently running the lonely rom 1.2

Hay there I was the one who made that rom and 1.2 is pretty much pure stock + sd card kitkat fix so it shouldn't be on the rom side. If you have any xposed modules running I bet it is the problem or outdated twrp. Try to update twrp with twrp manager from the play store and/or remove all xposed tweaks. If I can give you some advice unless you really like 10C the lonely rom you might want to find a new rom. Sadly I don't have the time and will not be able to update that rom (at least not in the next couple months). I am going to request it to be locked after I do some changes in the op.
Edit* I just remembered I have two 1.2 versions. the first 1.2 was up for about 4 hours before I took it down and turned it into 1.3 so if you have the version that has the 2g/3g/h/4g icons (no 4g lte because H is what tmobile calls 4g and lte is the only true 4g) it is now the 1.3 version and has changes that will not work with primetether. Simply dirty flash the corrected 1.2 over your current build and primetether should work. Quick link to the rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-lg-g3/development/rom-lifes-stock-rooted-t2821821
Does any body know if this mod works with any 5.0 roms?
Sorry if this has been asked before, but is there a version of primetether that works with the stock lollipop coming soon?
no more tethering?
Yes I also ran in to this problem last night. No matter what Rom I use, the Tmobile screen pops up when I try to access my browser. What has happened? Has T-mobile found a way to stop AOSP tethering and prime tethering?
I just tried installing SR Remix and it still doesn't work.

ok, so while best buy was activating my phone (which took a litle shy of 3 hours) , they updated the firmware or the software (whatever it is that was updating at the time). when i had a touch pro 2 i rellied heavily on xda-wifi program to provide internet to my laptop. am i screwed now that best buy updated my phone? how can i get my phone to provide wifi to my laptop? i am in the dark, and even tho i love the evo's speed it still does not compare to a laptop and what it can do. Please help. i feel like if i am in the dark ages without wifi hotspot.
Like the hero when it first came out, wifi tethering in it's classic form doesn't work yet. HOWEVER: Go enable your sprint hotspot app...I believe I heard that haven't locked it down yet so even though you're not paying for the service, it should work in a pinch.
I seen i lot of this going on at best buy while i was waiting in line. They didnt get to mine though.
hmm ill try it, im guessing using the sprint hotspot "free" until they fix it will be uncapped huh?
but now that they updated me, am i going to be able to root? i saw a few post that people were able to get wifitethering after root but it was kinda of tricky.
i, for one dont mind the sprint tv, navigation and other sprint stuff. i actually enjoy using them (i mean im paying for em right?). but i would like a program like xda-wifi (the one i had on my tp2) where all i had to do was run the cab and it installed the program.
is there anything out there now where i can use the wifitethering abilities of the phone while keeping my rom "LIKE" stock with all programs that came out the box?

when i go to sprint hotspot and check the sprint mobile hotspot it gives me "error code 67. Registration failure. your pcs vision username and/or password may be incorrect. please try again"
The (temporary) free hotspot only works on 4G.
ah, that would make sense...seeing as how im in boston and 4g not getting here till 4th quarter 2010...this is insane...what do i do now in order to provide my laptop with internet from my phone? if someone could help me with the root or something. but my phone is updated, can i even do it now?

I don't live in a 4G area. Last night I was able to tether my HERO, my iTouch (I know), my wife's PRE, and my laptop. But today, I get the "error code 67". Darn it!
You can root ur phone after the OTA if you go to http://unrevoked.com/m from your phone browser and download the .apk, then run it... seemed to work pretty good for me at least it appears I'm rooted now (I couldn't get wifi tether to work tho)
On a side note...anyone else use this method or know if this is safe and/or from a trusted source? I usually stick to XDA for mod stuff, I just happened to run across this, this morning someone on Twitter posted it
EDIT: I see the other thread, nvm

the only reason i would root is to get access to get access to wifi tether, otherwise i have no reason to root (im not into removing apps and stuff).
what other threat did you see that had to do with my issue?
the updates started the moment she activated my phone. saw the word 'firmware' and yelled "NO!", reached over her shoulder and hit cancel.
Hope so because my friend was testing my phone and when he gave it back it was doing the update. He told me there was an update available, but he made it seem like it was an update in the market place! Now qik force closes overtime I open it.

I would expect you have to be rooted and I'm not sure if that is totally available yet, if so can someone please tell me how. Bottom line I need my wifi tether to work again soon. If someone can help please do...

Go to google and type in wireless tether then hit I'm feeling lucky.
I Installed 2.0.7 since the 3.X versions didnt seem ready yet
I thought all the other carriers except Sprint removed access to rooted wifi tethering. I'm on Sprint with Evo 4g..... And its still awesome over here. Come on in the waters fine .....the unlimited "Everything Data" and free mobile to mobile kicks much ass. You aren't a data slave counting every gigabyte on Sprint..... Good luck with those other carriers! I have no clue why reasonable adults who own smartphones that inhale data at ever increasing rates- buy network and phone service in multiyear agreements to be restricted in data usage. Can I call it what it is? People are just stupid! And I find it hilarious.... You suck data thru a straw and I got a wide own fire hydrant that I pay less for! Call quality excellent, data blazing fast and unlimited ..... Hilarious.

You HAVE to be rooted first. To do that go to alpharevx website, dowload their tool, that will give you s off. Make sure ur pc is hooked to the internet and when u r done choose to flash clockwork mod. Then download gingersense rom, then power off ur phone, then power it on by holding down power and volume down. Then, go into recovery and choose install ROM and pick where u put the gingersense ROM, choose it, then flash it, then reboot to system. I like the Barnacle tether app on the market, but of course none of this is relevant if u have already updated ur phone to 2.3, ur screwed unless u buy an xtc clip

I had Sprint but thankfully I'm back on Verizon, Sprint has less towers, even though it worked wherever Verizon did, half the time it was roaming off of Verizon towers where u CAN'T get high speed data. O, Sprint terminated my contract because of that, I was where there was no Sprint signal, only roaming off of Verizon for an extended period of time so they cut me off, no warning, said in the fine print I had x amount of roaming minutes, even though it.was.free. they would not reactivate my phone either, so when I got back home I happily went back to Verizon, o, and I'm unlimited too. Sprint is cheaper though, I will give you that, but u can keep it.

No I have not yet done the 2.3 update, so I assume the free wifi tether will be fine if I get it rooted. Is the method real hard by chance

They removed access to them from the market, but that doesn't mean that they cant be installed from another source

Nope its easy. Once you have root all you have to do is install the app and run it. Give it su privileges when it asks. Hit menu after running it to configure it, then enable it and you are all set
Like I said Barnacle IS on the market, its free and u can use it after u have root. And if u meant is rooting hard, well it depends on you. I'm pretty computer literate, though I can't write code or anything like that, it was easy for me, I used the Linux version though because the Windows version was not working, might throw u for a loop, I don't know, but I hear the Windows version is now working, u can read about how to.step by step in the threads that talk about s off I believe, though I gave you a general idea above. You need to go to HTC website and download the sync drivers, I forgot to mention that, and after u install sync, uninstall the program, just don't go in and manually remove the drivers, that's what u need. Good luck, pm me if u need more info maybe I can help, I don't mind helping people I would hope they would do the same for.me

If you don't think Sprint will be close behind in choking off that "unlimited data" then you must be....can I call you what you are? Blind. I have 2 more years of unlimited Verizon data, so I figure you and I will be hitting that tiered data plan at about the same time.....
First, this belongs in general/discussion. Second I'm on Verizon, and, not once worried about my unlimited data.. all existing customers can stay unlimited as long as they don't change their plan. I can even renew my contract, keep my same plan and still be unlimited.

NoClue....
I used the Windows version of AlphaRev a couple of days ago. It is now working great. The hardest part was typing in the access code it gives you (a string of about 18 characters -- I missed one the first time I tried. Nothing bad happened, I just had to start over.)
Rooting process takes about 5 minutes. I tried CyanogenMod 7.1 beta for DInc 2, but went back to Gingersense, which is essentially the OTA Gingerbread update but with permanent root. I had been using CM7 on my previous phone (OG Droid) and liked it, but I think the gingersense is just a little more elegant looking. Keeps the best of Sense and Gingerbread and lets you get rid of any crap you don't want.
Once you are rooted getting wireless tethering is as simple as installing an app.
If youre rooted, cm7 comes with a native free wifi tether. if youre not running cm7 the barnacle app from market works fine, there are other free wifi tether apps that you can google search for. if youre running a stock rom you can use the vzw hotspot for free wifi tether access by using this hack.

Thread moved to proper forum.
Install: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/170406/droid apps/wifi_tether_v3_1-beta2.apk
It's the best wifi tether app I've found. The market will refuse to allow you to install it on the Dinc2 due to Verizon forbidding it, but installing the APK directly works fine.
If you need the stock Gingerbread ROM: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/170406/droid apps/cm_vivow_full-4.zip
Gingerbread ROM's removed Verizon apps: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/170406/droid apps/rmk-ROM-vivow_gingerbread_2.18.605.4-removed_apps.zip
Radio update: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/170406/droid apps/PG32IMG.zip
MD5 checker: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/170406/droid apps/md5summer.exe
Once rooted I think you can even just use the stock wifi router app, when I wasn't rooted I tried it and it pulled up a Verizon webpage. now it doesn't. haven't been charged yet..
hey jeremytn
I see a bunch of gingersense things out there. is there a certain one I want to DL
I pay $30 for my mobile hotspot and unlimited data on my Galaxy Nexus, and just today the hotspot feature no longer works. When I activate it, it says error and just stops working. Spent about 90 minutes on the phone with Verizon they reactivated my phone, changed settings and couldn't get it to work. As a last resort they wanted to do a factory reset. At the time I couldn't do that, and they said if that doesn't work then I'll need a new phone.
I tried the reset a few minutes ago and it didn't help,still says error.
Any suggestions?
I have tried a few of the hotspot apps on the market, none have worked.
I found a thread on vzw community site with my exact same problem.....

Phone is rooted on stock rom(4.02) and radios.
I flashed with Revolution Rom and was able to use my phone as a mobile ap without problems. I'm on just the plain 4gb data plan. Before flashing VZ blocks it because I'm not on a mobile hotspot plan. You ought to give that a try.

Peter Alfonso's "Bugless Beast" 4.0.3 rom supports native tethering as well (and is available right in Rom Manager) =)
If you're going to be rooting, then stop paying for hotspot you'll get it for free on custom ROMs (or stock ROM once devs figure out how to stop VZW from checking in on tethering).

Very weird issue
Hi all,
started this thread for people like me that don't post much, that can't ask questions in the Dev section. Got to get my post counts up, lol! I've been a member on here from when the Samsung Moment came out, so I'm no newb to flashing rom's, etc. ' Just saying'. Been trying to flash TBOMB 5.0 from last night and can't get my phone to boot up for the life of me. It starts, hangs, then it crashes before it's completed. Yes, I did everything I needed to do. LIH firmware, Wipe caches, factory reset, re-downloaded the file (2x) even flashed to complete stock and started over(2x). Still no go. Many are having good luck with this rom, what am I doing wrong here? Thanks in advance, for any info that could get me on the right track....
Anyone else needing help with this rom, you're more than welcome to use this thread for questions. :good:
That's weird. Did you reset your counter to 0 (zero) before flashing? I'm not sure if it makes a difference but you can try. I flashed over the leaked version of JB, only wiped caché and data caché. Didn't do any Factory Wipe/Reset because it was not in the instructions. You only need to Reset if you had any problems/issues with the rom. Everything works fine so far. Try those steps and see what happens. But do a nandroid before flashing.
Not to be rude, but are you waiting long enough? I remember reading in that thread after 5 was released that the boot animation was just straight black screen. That after a few minutes of nothing, it boots. Also, 5.1 was released this afternoon. Try that out.

I have been having trouble with trying to switch my lock screen wall paper. Did a dirty flash
of 5.1 over JB 5.0. But this is only on the lock screen. My home screen will change with no problems. Also for some reason I can't open the gallery app. This isn't to big of a deal as I use Quickpic but idk if they are related problems. When I try to use QP to set the wall paper it just asks me to crop the pic and that's it. I am sure I am overlooking something and would appreciate any help. Thanks

Thanks for your response. Yes, I did a counter reset when I went back to stock LI3.
DLed the 5.1 version of the rom after I posted this, flashed my phone, and now I'm good to go.
My phone didn't like something in the 5.0 version of this rom, might have been the kernel, don't think I had 2 bad downloads of this rom(5.0)......
Now I have hands on, the niceness I've been reading about. Thanks to all of you hard working Dev's, that keep our phones going by bringing us all these goodies. :good:

Been thinking the same thing while I was trying at first, but it sure wasn't my wait time. Fell asleep waiting on it around 4:30am , woke up 4 hrs later, no go, lol! Had to leave the house for a while, so I flashed back to stock LI3, so I could have my phone working... 5.1 worked, like I posted before seeing your response. Thanks for responding.
Battery Icon - Signal Icon - Date
I just flashed 5.1 over 4.3 today. Install went great, phone is dramatically faster did great on benchmark.
The issue I am having is that the signal icon, battery icon, ringer icon, time Do not show up right away on reboot. then all of a sudden it will just show up.
This actually happened on 4.3 also. If anyone has any ideas that would be great, and not to wipe and re-flash. I understand that ultimately that may be required but I am not looking at doing that right now.
Thanks.

Rocking JellyBomb Thanks to Teem VeNuM on My Sprint S3 xda Premium
Yes, this rom is awesome. The only thing I'm having trouble with is wi-fi tethering. I guess with this version of JB it is not possible to run tethering. Anyone else out there?
I called sprint and added wifi hotspots for $10.00 .After they allowed it I went to system update. Updated prn and profile and it works. I hope this helped
Rocking JellyBomb Thanks to Teem VeNuM on My Sprint S3 xda Premium
Is anyone having issues with setting up the s voice wakeup commands? It's like the microphone is deaf. S voice works with everything else. Just not that. I'm gonna flash 5.1 as soon as it downloads. But just in case it still doesn't works, I'm asking this question.
General Jellybomb install
This might help a couple of you. I install JellyBomb 5.1 yesterday (first rom flash, yay!!) and loving it.
I used Clockwork Recovery. I installed the LIH modem (?) first as they said. Factory reset, wipe, cache and wipe richvishervi (?). Install of the rom itself couldn't have taken more than 20 mins, but I did get a boot animation (I believe it's the boot animation form the international version G3).
The only issue I had was that my google calender wouldn't sync. To get round this I deselected calender from the google account and added a account using Microsoft Exchange with my google details. That was a work around that has worked for me.
I think I also have a problem with wifi tethering but I haven't looked into it properly.
One question I will ask is; I'd like to have the lock screen that has the circular unlock feature but I'm not sure how to get it. Any help would be appreciated.
If anyone is on the fence about installing this rom, I'm VERY happy with it. It's very customizable, it fast and it has been very easy on the battery so far. Well done Josh Beach.

This might help a couple of you. I install JellyBomb 5.1 yesterday (first rom flash, yay!!) and loving it.
I used Clockwork Recovery. I installed the LIH modem (?) first as they said. Factory reset, wipe, cache and wipe richvishervi (?). Install of the rom itself couldn't have taken more than 20 mins, but I did get a boot animation (I believe it's the boot animation form the international version G3).
The only issue I had was that my google calender wouldn't sync. To get round this I deselected calender from the google account and added a account using Microsoft Exchange with my google details. That was a work around that has worked for me.

Do you mean the lockscreen with the rings?
Exchange Account
I have an exchange account setup on this rom. Not all of my appointments are syncing over. Some are and some are not. I have my work schedule in outlook as an "all day event" but none of them are showing up. But other "all day" events are syncing over.
My gCalendar is sycing without a problem.
Anyone have any ideas???

Why? You could download Easy Tether from Play Store and use it for free. Free version doesn't let you browse the secure sites but the paid version does. It works great.

Yes. It has an unlock icon with the shortcuts to apps above, below, to the left and right.

It's been said a few times that SELinux settings have an effect on mobile connection on some phones, not all, but some. Mine being one of them, that theory has also been criticized, ironically by those who's phones do not suffer from the issue. Anyways, if your trying a 4.4 ROM and have no APNs, no baseband, IMEI etc grab SELinux mode changer from the market, set to Permissive and be on your way. Why or what causes it is beyond me but changing to Permissive solves it. It takes a few seconds after boot for supersu permissions, a few seconds then for your APNs to be populated and baseband, after that you will get mobile connection working.
Hope this helps someone else fighting the same issues. Here's a video showing before and after, a little wait at the APN screen the second time for them to be populated. Also, sorry for the quality, just easier to record the screen directly compared to holding a camera.

Glad it was of help, just passing on what I have read and tried to make it easier to find so made a thread for it, some of us have the issue but appears the majority do not.
I had the issue initially when installed with twrp, did it once again with cwm, worked like a charm. Good info to keep in mind though.
anybody got the apk handy they can upload? flashed the latest cm nightly not knowing it was 4.4.1, and the store won't connect via wifi for whatever reason.. i'd rather not have to do a clean install to get my phone working again.
Thanks.
Nevermind, I managed to pull it from the woman's unrooted moto x. It's here if anyone else needs it..

just out of curiosity. vAre you guys having any issues with the AOSP roms slowing down the data speeds? I know people have said for a long time since GB I think that the tw roms are much faster than AOSP I never saw that on HSPA+ but I am on simple moble and they just turnrd on their LTE and my phone gets an average of 28 down and 14 up. on tw roms but on AOKP or other AOSP roms it gets 8 up and 3 down. Like the lte is not working. Anyone else have these problems?
I love you.
