[Q] WiFi tether stopped working.

Hey all.
If this has been posted already, I am sorry for a repeat post. I haven't seen a fix.
I recently did the OTA update on my Galaxy S3 to Android 4.1.2 and I think that is pretty much the only thing that I have changed.
I had to go back to my stock recovery in order to get the update, but I never changed my recovery back to CWM.
The phone says that I am still rooted, I have the superuser icon in my apps so I assume that I am rooted.
Whenever I click on the app it says that I am granted superuser permission.
I am using the WiFi tether TrevE Mod and it worked in the past with my ipad.
It starts to tether, stating that I have superuser permission, but then it says:
"Tethering started with Errors!
Please check 'showlog'.
I check for the WiFi option on my ipad and my ipad is not there.
I unistalled and reinstalled the program and it has the same issues.
I go to the "show log" and it says "unable to open the log-file. File does not exist"
I am out of ideas what to try next and I ask the forum for advice.
Thanks to all!

This is a kernel issue. Some stock kernels don't allow wifi tethering, even if you are rooted. Flash a different kernel and profit.

That'll help you if you don't know how

The problem was that I lost root. Thanks!

[Q] Either enable SuperSU or turn off the damn "blocked" notification

So, I just got am SGH-T747 S3 yesterday, and was poking around in all the new settings, when I came across "Software Update". I wasn't sure if this meant firmware or what, but I went ahead and let it download what turned out to be 4.3 (whereas I was on 4.1.2 or thereabouts).
Then I tried to root it today, with a couple of methods but most recently CF-Autoroot. I haven't flashed any ROMs or done anything else beyond this yet, I just wanted my Ad Blocker. And then I start getting this business about "SuperSU has stopped", and the "An application attempted to access system" nonsense. So of course I Googled it, and came across a number of different articles/posts about this problem, including some on XDA, none of which seem to offer any solutions.
I'm not really sure at this point how or even if this problem can be fixed or not. I've read that you can't downgrade to a lesser ROM version (?). Also, I'm not sure if flashing CyanogenMod (which is what I eventually want to do) would solve the problem, and I'm not about to try it for fear of what other surprises I might encounter.
But if for some reason I can't have root, I'd at least like to be rid of this incessant notification that the program has been blocked. TIA.

Well, if you want adblock, there is a VPN called Spotflux that doesn't slow your speeds down, has adblock, and is free.
About the root issue....I wouldn't know as my i747 is in a coma of the QHSUSB - DLOAD disease.
You might wanna try the cyanogenmod installer in google play to see if your device is supported ( proceed with caution)

Thanks, that is an interesting alternative in the interim. As with everything ad-related, it doesn't work everywhere (I guess they are pulling ads from custom servers or whatever), but it does seem to work with some programs. I've had the same issue with AdBlocker too.

if i remember correctly, in settings>security you can disable the notification of supersu being blocked and now you can access root. happened to me when i first updated

I used cf autoroot and then installed supersu from the play store. When I opened supersu it asked me if I wanted to disable knox and I pressed yes. Then I installed titanium backup and froze knox.

[Q] galaxy tab 3 10.1 suddenly unrooted giving weird problems

Hello!! i come to the best forum desperately looking for help after three days of weird behaviour, i had already rooted my galaxy tab 3 10.1 using a guide i found here on xda-developers months ago, i cant remember which one, it used Odin and custom recovery says BinDroid CWM-based recovery v6.0.2.8, it was successfully rooted, installed busybox 1.21.1 (stericsson) almost all root apps working fine, but some of them like network spoofer or dsploit telling that busybox was not installed correctly or some binary could not be found, im not a tech noob, but definitely new to android, so one day i tried installing them both in /system/xbin and /system/bin because some apps read from one directory or the other and the dual install would not be harmful for the device, also installed it symlinking with manual install, after i did that, those apps worked finally!! but, root checker said my device was not rooted anymore... so weird
So i tried rooting again over CWM, same method and still showing no root access, i decided then to make a full factory reset, after doing that, wifi is stuck on "obtaining ip address" avoided slow connection, it only connects when i set a static ip, some problem with dhcp i guess, and also, super user app is still there but showing no SU found and not able to uninstall the app, only shows the option, enable and disable, tired of this, i followed this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2625805 with both ROMs in order to go back to stock, both installed just fine, but i saw "installing busybox" during the process, is that suposed to happen with a stock rom? i mean the first one on the thread suposed to be the stock one, and the second rom is not showing root access on root checker either, even though the author says it is rooted ... at least super user app is no longer there, but both ROMs still stuck on "obtaining ip" bucle, and now it got worse, most apps downloaded are not working, chrome for example opens for a second and closes, other apps open, but only show a black screen and the notification bar, i uploaded the root.zip i used for rooting in first place, please tell me if there is something left to do to fix this, anything, i would really apreciate it!!
Apologize my bad english and my ignorance on android... thanks for reading and all help in advance!!

Hey there,
Please search the forum to root your tab again

[Q] Different Wifi error

I have tried to find an answer, but have been unable to. I rooted my sprint LG G3 with stump root. Got the Super User, Xposed, g3tweaksbox, adblock, titanium backup. All was wonderful and have had great joy with it all. Then i downloaded a wifi tether - this one did say it was incompatible with my device, but had a direct link for rooted phones...so i thought it would be ok. maybe not. I then tried to download ssh tunnel...but it never downloaded. It was after that that I started having wifi problems. I uninstalled the wifi tether app. I didn't get on my phone again until i got to work the next morning. right off when my phone tried to pick up their wifi, i got connection errors (tunnel connect failed, then later proxy error) Then i got an alert that ssh tunnel failed to download. I turn off wifi, and everything is great. BUT, now i cannot download anything from Play store. Also, i went back to the app ssh tunnel on Play and it says it is installed. but it is not. When i got back home, i turned wifi back on to check it - i just keep getting an authentication error. So I don't kow what the heck i did, but if any has any ideas to help.....please, Help! also,, I did not flash any rom or anything.

[Q] Native hotspot not working after root

I just recently rooted my HTC one m8 from T-mobile, it is on Lollipop.
After rooting I downloaded the app "WiFi Tether Router" I know it works, because I've used it in the past with an older phone. But this time it didn't work after implementing the settings suggested by the developer on the device configuration site, I got curious and decided to check the native hotspot app, all it does is show a message saying "PROCESSING..." but never turns on, if I leave it working eventually the screen will turn off and the process will stop.
On the website, it is recommended to remove an app named "TetherGuard" I tried to do it, but only found a file named "Tethering Guard" I tried to remove it using "ES File Explorer File Manager" but couldn't do it, at the end I ended up using "Titanium Backup" to freeze it.
I'm new into rooting, all I did with my older phone was to root it in order to install "WiFi Tether Router" ... Can anyone please help with this?

I am having same problem with Verizon M8 rooted and running SkyDragon on T-Mobile. :crying: Everything else is working fine.
