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.

WIFI Tether issues on most ROMS.

Hey Guys,
I've tried all kinds of different roms, from different versions of Liquid Smooth, Carbon, Jellybam, but one common issue i experience is WIFI tethering.
All roms except Liquid Smooth 4.1.1 RC7. I've done clean installs, even went back to stop and flash fresh, and to no avail. None of the roms let me tether other than RC7. Even with RC7, the native tether doesnt work. I'd have to use a wifi tether app which only works for rc7
So a quick summary of what ive done so far:
-All wipe steps, factory reset inclusing data and system but to no avail.
-go back to stock, root again, flash any rom, nothing.
-go back to RC7 liquid smooth rom, and the wifi tether app is the only way to get wifi tether to work.
Any recommendations on what i could try or even use another rom will be awesome.
Thanks in advance.

WiFi tether on AOKP's 4.1.2 works for perfectly. Additionally, the rom is super stable.

Thanks for letting me know. The current ROM i am running is on 4.1.2 as well. It seems Wifi tethering hasnt yet been perfected on 4.2.2. Will wait this one out i guess.

You can try flashing KT747 Kernel. WiFi tether states its been fixed a few days ago. May be something worth doing to see if this corrects your problem.

i was using 4.2.2 Rootbox prior to this flash. I had tried to flash over the KT747 kernel for D2ATT however it did not work it just hung the phone in a continuous boot loop. i tried to do the method with fixed permissions in TWRP also but still no luck.
However it seems like on the AOKP(Jellybean 4.2.2 )Task650 (2.23.2013) (AT&T) rom i'm running the wireless tether is an issue still for Canadian customers as per the FAQ section that's in their main Rom thread

I've had working wifi tether on my 4.2.2 rom for quite some time. Where you getting the "Wifi tethering hasnt yet been perfected on 4.2.2" information from? You have to have a ROM + Kernel that will allow it. Most AOSP roms should be up to date. If they are not then I'm not sure why.

Another plug for task's latest. Tethering works with underwear and ktoonsez kernels.

^ latest task ROM? Or just the kernel.

ROM and kernel have to support it.
I'm not Canadian nor do I have Canadian service. So I can't confirm that. But I have a ton of Canadian users and have seen no reports of it not working. So that must mean it works just fine.

Did you use the native tethering app? I installed Liquid Smooth 4.2.2 on my VZ S3 yesterday and I can not get the native tethering to work.

How do you install and flash a kernel. Can it just normally be done through twrp??

Over the past week I've flashed a bunch of different roms, CM 10.1, AOKP, SuperNexus, etc. and none of them I can get working for wi-fi hotspot/tethering. I'm also on Rogers and my i747 works just fine on stock rooted for wi-fi hotspot, just none of the AOSP ROMs I've tried.
My tablet or laptop will connect to the wi-fi hotspot, but no data is passed through.

[Q] no mobile data

I know this is not the US Cellular area but I do not think we have one so here it goes. I have US Cellular s3 and have run custom roms for sometime I flashed one the other day and now my mobiel data does not work, everything else is fine text, wifi and phone just mobile data. I was wondering if anyone knows how to fix this, I have performed a factory reset and put the phone back to stock with the Samsung upgrade tool, flash counter 0 and status normal. Do I need to flash a new radio or modem and if so can I do it in download mode with the stock rom inplace or will I need to root and put a rom on.
Thank you for helping.

It's your APN settings. Check with your carrier what they are, then go into settings, more networks, mobile network (or something like that) and click on APN. You will have the option to add an APN.

If the other s3 is rooted from Uscc n works on uscc yes you can use the same settings. If you call Uscc they won't tell you BC its rooted. The techs don't even have that info.
You just input the mmsc and all the APN settings in and your data will work.

[Q] Hyperdrive Wifi hotspot not working for me.

Can someone please help me with getting the Wifi hotspot to work on this Rom? I'm definitely interested in running this but I do rely on the mobile hotspot for my XBOX. I've seen someone post about it work for them but I can't seem to get it to work for me. Reflashed the Rom with a different kernel and no go. Thanks guys I'd appreciate it! Great Rom overall!!

Did you test with another device? Try connect another phone or laptop to your hot spot.
I was using it earlier and I had no problem.

I've had the same problem with not being able to hot-spot since I installed this rom. I found this thread a few months ago and downloaded the app and it had been working great up until recently. Don't know why it stopped working. But I really wish the rom would just allow me to tether rather than having to rely on an app.

Same problem, none of the fixes in the thread worked.

Fixed tethering. Change the tethering APN to match the LTE APN. And make both protocols ipv4/ipv6.

I don't see Effortless as a rom available for my carrier in the rooms list, so maybe it's not compatible with my specific device.
Aside from that, would clockworkmod recovery not work with your rom, an if not why not?

Anyone have similar problem? Have 3G/H+ but no network?

Hello,
I am having this problem lately...
I am located in Canada. I am using the 550ML TW version and update OTA all the time, but the past months, I am not able to use any of my data. I can see the 3G or H+ but just couldn't use it. Sometime it will work for few sec but can't use again.
Also, I have manually selected my access point but still no luck even after restart my phone
Anyone know what is the problem? My device is rooted and with busybox and with xposed
Thanks

What Rom version are you running? Just version # and have you thought about upgrading to we Rom? Can't say that's the problem but I always try different options, I had trouble with ota's not installing properly a couple times so I had to run the full software as an update. All I can think of at this time.

I'll do some research and see what I can find, If I can find the source for the full .41 Rom I would suggest running that as an udpdate first.... there are a couple custom roms for the 550, though I haven't yet found one I am happy with and I am on the 551

This is the problem
There is 3G but no network

yes it is on

you can call the carriers all day, but the zenfone 2 is foreign to them. So you will have to unlock your data speed on your own, AT YOUR OWN RISK! Enter *#*#4636#*#* on your Calling dial pad. Then look for data speeds and switch it to LTE, this will force 4gLTE speed only. Or try a lower speed if 4gLTE is being droped in your area. Please be careful NOT to switch any other phone settings in this menu. your warranty might go invalid or permanent dmg. ALSO check your APN settings. for example; even tho metro pcs and t-mobile use same towers , they have different APN connections, double check with your carrier or research online.
