Does anyone know of a way to get the native hotspot working on the Note 4 by adding DUN to the LTE APN's like on the Note 3?
The APN's aren't able to be edited on my Note 4, like I was able to on my Note 3.
Don't want to root my Note 4 yet, but need to get Hotspot back.

You could pay for the service that would make it work.
Sprint apns already have dun added use galaxytools from the themes and apps section

I remember before the phone was released, someone claimed to have it working. It was in some thread, I think, I the original development t area.
Another option, you could use WiFi Tether Router. I know it's expensive at around $3.50, actually a little less, but the developer does keep active in keeping it updated and does bug fixes. It's a little slower loading up than native hotspot, but I haven't had issues with the Note 2 once I figured out the settings it needed.
Galaxy tools worked perfect for me
I installed it twice cause it wasnt sticking at reboots on first install of native hotspot.
Now it works fine every time i reboot the only thing is everytime i turn it on i have to go to configure hotspot and advanced settings and put maximum connections to 8 cause it goes back to 1

Don't you have to be rooted to use the tools and WiFi teacher router? OP said he isn't rooted, yet.

Thanks a lot. Workeds perfectly.
We got the Native Hotspot hack working for the Sprint note 3 w/ root. It's a simple smali edit. Bet it would work with the note 4 as well. It was the same from note 2- Note 3

I really didnt want to start a new thread about this but I've received no help in the chat room and cant find an answer in Q&A. so... My problem is, Im trying to freeze sprint hotspot and cant find it when I search for it in the bloat freezer app. I tried freezing random sprint apps to see if that would work and nada. so if ANYONE has frozen this app already or knows where to find it/change file name in root explorer/ delete it. please let me know! Thanks in advance. Rude_Jude.
I think its actually buikt into the framework
I have searched many times for the app so i could remove it and never found it
Also the hitspot hack uses modifies framework so it kinda makes sense

Its in the settings.apk, it can be removed, but not easily.

So, I should or shouldnt remove it? And if I should, can you, chris41g tell me what file name its under or tell me how to find it? Please??
Chris already told you where it's located. It's built into the Settings.apk - unless you've messed with Android before I wouldn't touch it.
Do you just not want it because you don't have tethering in your plan or what? Just wondering since most people want it and there's a fix in the Dev section so you can use the wireless hotspot app.
I realize he told me its in the settings apk... But there are layers upon layers to look through. I already have teather so I dont need hotspot. I just want to stop any apps from automatically running. What would hot spot do for me that teather doesn't already do?

its not a simple edit, you can remove it from the xml file and the icon goes away, but its hard to get it compiled back, because it uses that xml for a signature

Infrastructure. It can be used in access point mode (AP) - the other tether apps can't. A lot of things can only connect to an access point - like the PS3, XBOX, tablets, so on. On the plus side, the Google wireless tether app can use 4G, the Sprint one can't right now unless you actually pay for it.

Hi All,
I currently have a Jail Broken i4. The only reason I bought this phone was the app MyWi, that allows me to tether using infrastructure mode and my standard data plan.
I HATE the i4. I really do. I need a new phone as the home button has been mucked up for a few weeks now.
If I read the forums correctly, I can root a new S3 following the instructions here - {HOWTO}{ROOT} No Tripping....
I assume this will leave me with the same operating system that came with the phone just rooted. (Please correct me if I'm wrong).
Here is my question.
The above statement being true, what is the best (Free or paid) WiFi Tethering app available for android that will allow me to use my standard data plan instead of purchasing a separate data plan for tethering? Please note, I can not use AdHoc mode. It must be infrastructure.
I have done some searching and this App looks promising. (Android-wifi-tethering-for-root-users)
Thanks all,
-NJ
Hi mate.
Yes after rooting your firmware will be exactly the same.
Kernel might change though depending on what root method you use.
There are lots of tethering apps out there.
My favourite is an app by Chainfire .
There will be plenty of info on here about it if you search "wifi tether chainfire"

I don't know what to say about that line of yours that I quoted.
I really hope you didn't pay for that tweak and that a friend shared it with you.
I'm a GS3 owner and lover, but iOS and the iPhone 4 was a great phone. (I was a previous iOS fan)
All platforms are fundamentally equally bad and good.
Android isn't without its issues, nor is iOS, Windows Phone, BalckBerry or WebOS (RIP).
Once you root the GS3 though you can simply CWM flash a MOD to remove the restriction AT&T imposed on the tethering functions.
Personally though, TouchWiz and AT&T muck up the awesomeness of this delightful device. If I were you, i'd look into flashing a custom ROM which typically doesn't have any tethering restrictions.
Okay all, just trying to help out.
G/F has the M and it's rather flaky with FoxFi and getting tether to work. Therefore to help some out, buy SQLite (original RAZR and MAXX owners should be familiar with this) from the Play Store.
The path will be "data/user/0/com.motorola.android.providers.settings/databases"
So select data > user > 0 > com.motorola.android.providers.settings > databases > settings.db > settings
After selecting settings a list will pop up. You can do one of two things. Tap the magnifying glass and type "entitlement_check" and search for that, or scroll down to line 68 (yours may be a different line) and select it.
Tap the pencil icon.
You will see a new screen that has _id "auto", name "entitlement_check", and value "1". Change the "1" to a "0".
Hit save.
You should now be able to use the stock VZW hotspot app.
(This is on stock rooted ICS, not sure if this works on the Jellybean leak, but should tide us over til some custom roms get rolling that bypass this altogether.)
This worked great on the JB update, thanks! I did need to reboot after making changes to have it take effect, but otherwise, worked great. I was able to do both WiFi hotspot and Bluetooth tethering.
Interestingly I don't need to do this to enable the hotspot even though I don't have unlimited data. Are you sure it's even required anymore?

Unfortunately for unlimited data users it is required. We don't get free tethering as tiered data users do.
Thanks seems to work fine.
worked like a charm thanks!
Used it to upload several movie files to my dropbox lol. 20mbps up is so amazing vs 2mbps on home wifi. Uploaded a video to youtube too. Unlimited data, gonna stick it to the man!
*edit* I'm on the Jelly Bean leak.
Thanks!! This worked perfectly on the JB OTA. Made the changes, reboot and BOOM. Testing the tethering right now...
Glad its working for you guys. My Dev M should be here tomorrow. So I'm excited to be in this neck of the woods for a while now. As others have confirmed...this does work on the JB OTA. :good:
What am I doing wrong
Excuse my ignorance but I seem to be falling short here... what exactly are you guys doing? From inside the SQLite manager I'm selecting "data" but there is no "user" after that! Also checked Astro File Manager. Please help

Guessing you're not at the root directory maybe? Do you have root explorer? Haven't used Astro since my old phone no Gingerbread so not sure if it has root access.
Motoman, sorry bud, was at work and just got home. Got your PMs bro. :good:
Okay is your M rooted? If so then SQLite should find the root directory. (Going to come back and edit this in a minute)
ETA:
Okay in SQLite there are four tabs at the top. APPS, FILES, BOOKMARKS, RECENT
Hit the FILES tab.
Then scroll down to "data" folder and select it. Your "user" folder should be all the way at the bottom after selecting "data"
rooted on JB OTA. Worked perfectly after a reboot! Thanks
Welp thanks to tethering and the awesomeness of LTE uploading I have used an ass load of data. I uploaded some music and TV shows to my dropbox for some friends.

Sorry to jump into old thread but considering a RAZR M for my wife but need to be able to do wifi tether. Currently on old unlimited alltel plan on Verizon. Is regular consumer M able to be rooted?
Then wifi tether is still an entitlement change with SQL lite? Or do I news to buy development version of the M?

Here are some instructions on how to use Wifi Hotspot after you are rooted.
install Xposed Framework from HERE
after you have xposed framework setup, download Wanam Xposed from the Play Store and install it. Go into Exposed framework app, go to modules and check (enable) the wanam mod. Reboot.
After you are rebooted, go into Wanam xposed app, goto system, check "Disable tether provisioning. Reboot
this allows you to use hotspot without provisioning, but if you go to the verizon hotspot icon or configuration, it sees it and shuts it off. So we will add a hotspot quick panel icon to turn it on.
Download and launch SQLite Editor
1. Open up SQLite Editor - Select the Apps tab on top and scroll down until you see Settings Storage and click it
2. Click on Ssettings.db
3. Click on system
4. Click on the search icon on top right
5. Type in the word notification in the Filter Value field and click ok
6. Once the results load up, tap on notification_panel_active_app_list (should be the bottom result) and click on the pencil icon on top to edit
7. In the Value field, you'll see all your toggles listed. All you have to do is add the word WiFiHotspot <-- just like that, with the three caps, with a semi colon right after. Make sure there's no space after the semi colon. Once you add WiFiHotspot, click the save button.
8. Close SQLite editor and reboot your phone. Once your phone boots back up, you should now have the Wifi toggle in quick settings like mine below!
Now, to use it, click on the quick panel icon you just made called wifi hotspot. Hit Home so you go to the home screen. Dont go to the Verizon Hotspot icon or the Hotspot configure, just use it like that and it works good. Takes a minute or two to establish internet access after your computer connects but it works, I have confirmed it.
Good write yup bud.... @ForeverSupra says your an OK guy... I guess he's right... Lol

I have to admit that I'm not the most informed when it comes to wifi tethering, so sorry if this is a dumb question...
But does this prevent Verizon from tracking the tethering? The only reason I ask ask is that I still have unlimited.

I tethered this way since I got my Note 3 and been tethering ever since I had my Droid X. I'm unlimited also.
Has anyone tested Foxfi? I have used it with my previous phones when rooted but currently it pops up the Verizon subscription thing. Would I still need to check the "Disable tether provisioning" box in Xposed? Normally I just check the box within Foxfi to start tethering.

doesnt this work without needing to use the quick settings icon? if you disable tether provisioning with wanam, then just open the mobile hotspot app you can click the home button when the "error subscription required" message comes up and tethering should still work

EDIT:
As I mentioned to TDunham on his thread for OA6 DeOdexed.....
For those of you taking the Lollipop update, there is an app in the playstore that enables all apps for Lollipop. It is also the only one I know of to work with Android L at the moment. Of course, this is unless any Devs here eventually modify the Lollipop UI on their own custom roms.
ROOT IS REQUIRED!!!
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.xpe.app.multiwindow.commander
After download.......grant SU, select apps, save and reboot. It's that simple. The difference is that NOW your MW will be on the right side with no thumb/arrow pull. You will have to double tap the back button to use. I'm not sure if this was a patent issue with Samsung, but it works.
I am just posting this as a pass-on. Moderators, feel free to delete or move this thread at will.
I don't need any thanks. Thank you's all go to the developers of this awesome app.
Its nice but it is a paid app. Devs technically wouldnt be able to implement that. Thanks for the find though. Im purchasing now

Yeah. I guess I typed that wrong. I meant that the devs on XDA have the ability to break down the UI to implement their own mods.
I multi-task with my phone, hence needing multiwindow. This app thankfully gives the solution "now". Great stuff.

What I do see is you quoting an Exynos version of your phones. Am I correct? There MAY be issues on International versions, as we here are on the Sprint(P) variant. I do know that not ALL phones will work with this app.
Are both of you rooted and on stock Touchwiz?
There was also an issue with the latest update as stated by the developer. Perhaps a simple clear of data and cache will solve this issue.

Have you tried contacting the developer?
Can you open the app itself at all?
I fear that your tablet MAY not be compatible, although some comments in the play store section seem to suggest otherwise. The developer states that the app fits all Galaxy series phones, and most galaxy tablets with KitKat or Lollipop. I'm sure there are exceptions.
I've attached my screenshots so you can see what you SHOULD have. If you can not even open the app itself to select the apps that you want, there's a bigger issue. Perhaps even try reinstalling altogether.
One pic is the slide window activated by hard-pressing the back button, now on the right side. The other pic is what the app itself looks like when you open it.
