[Q] Tethering fix - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3

Hey guys,
I apologize if this has been asked but I couldn't find it on any particular thread. About 10 days ago I started getting T-Mobile's upsell for tethering that I'd (thanks to the awesome developers) been able to successfully evade for over a year. Is there any fix for this? I'm (now) running Lollipop but it happened before upgrading so it seems unrelated. Thanks in advance!

There's only one solution working for me right now, but you'll have to buy this app: Wifi Tether Router
Go into /system and make a copy of your build.prop
Open your build.prop with a text editor and add this line all the way at the bottom:
net.tethering.noprovisioning=true
Save the file and reboot your device
Open the wifi tether router app and go to "configure wifi router." At the bottom of the page, there's a button to visit the site for device config settings. Scroll down that page to find settings for Note 3.
Once you're all set up, you should be good to go. Only thing you have to do is use a UserAgent switching app on your browser to make it think you're on a mobile device. I'm using User-Agent Switcher (with the blue globe icon) for Google Chrome.
Hope that helps.

Hey, thanks for your quick reply, but with a user-agent switcher, everything works even now. I was hoping to avoid changing my headers because certain sites won't be served to a "mobile" device. Luckily, my internet tv apparently doesn't send any headers because I can still tether unlimited...ly with that, but it's definitely frustrating getting mobile versions of sites on my laptop. I have observed a somewhat strange behavior that I wonder if we can exploit. It's somewhat finicky, but I've noticed that if I Google the name of a site I want to access (still via the address bar, though), the search results come up without TMO nagging me about a hotspot and oftentimes the link from the search results takes me to the site. I can't make sense of it, but as an example, if you try www.yahoo.com, you'll get the hotspot page, but if you google "yahoo" and click the first result, you get taken to the site. *shrug* I'm not smart enough to figure it out, but perhaps this observation will help someone else solve the problem

East Coast Trains - Browser Problem with wifi hotspot?

OK so this is bigger than the title I think but I can't be the only person with this issue.
Here in the UK I use the East Coast Mainline train service into and out of London. On that service they offer free wifi and having used it time and time again, it works OK.
But my Desire doesn't like it.
The service works by letting you connect and then redirecting your browser to a log on page where you need to enter your registered email address. Again on other devices this works fine
But on the Desire I am getting an error on the redirect saying that there is a problem with the server. From my laptop, I am having no problem reaching the server to log on.
So I can't use the service.
Now my guess is that the browser is somehow trying to render a mobile version of the page or something so I have tried both the built in browser and Dolphin HD but still the same error.
Now I know that some other hot spots use similar redirected web pages so maybe this is a problem with them. I have not come across any others yet so don't know.
So have anybody else come across this either on the trains I use or with hot spots in general and if so, is there a work around?
Thanks
Sorry if I'm pointing out the obvious but have you put Dolphin into Desktop mode when you tried it?

From what I can see, this is the default setting (I assume you mean the "Mobile view (GWT)" setting)
Has this got something to do with the desire not having proxy support?
Have the same issues in hotels but my iPhone connects no problem.

Not quie. If you press Menu and go to "More", and then click "Settings", there is an option called "User Agent". You can change this to Android, iPhone or Desktop. I'd give Desktop mode a go if it's not already on there.

I think most paid for hot spots use these browser redirects when you first connect. I don't think it's a proxy thing though because you would have similar issues on some browsers on laptops etc
Can't find that option in settings anywhere! Is in in the menu option when in the browser?

No, but you know we were talking about the Dolphin HD browser, not the standard one? Sorry if there was any confusion.
It's certainly showing as an option for me so I will give this a try next week and see if it makes a difference.
The problem however is not so much not being able to connect but how the Desire behaves when it finds an open wifi connection with no internet.
What I see is that the device associates to the wifi and gets an IP address.
Because it now has a live wifi connection, it stops using cellular data (3G, GPRS etc).
But because that wifi connection does not allow onwards connection to the internet (because I can't log in via the web page), nothing syncs! So for the duration of the train journey, the phone is not syncing mail etc.
The work around here is to remember to turn off the wifi before I get on the train and back on when I get off but that's a pain to remember each time.
I tried changing the user agent to Desktop (on default browser) as described here but had same problem trying to connect.

Possible Solution
Long time lurker and have registered to try and help you out.
I had no problem with other phones on East Coast WiFi until trying to connect with my Desire.
After some messing around this is what you can do;
Try to connect as normal on the default browser and you'll receive the certificate error.
Clear that and input httpwwweastcoastwifi.train/ into the address bar. As it won't let me post links insert the usual Internet punctuation.
You'll then be able to log into the welcome screen as normal and access the internet.
Save the above address as a bookmark to save typing it in each time.
Strangely the access in the East Coast Lounges don't folllow this malarkey and you can just access the Internet without inputting any user details.
Hope it works for you.

Good man
I was on the train again today and even messing about with the agent ID, no joy. I did spot the certificate error though so wonder if the Desire is not happy with that.
In the meantime I have tried the phone on other hot spots that have a browser log on screen and it has worked fine.
So it looks like East Coast has an odd setup but I am back on the train on Tuesday morning so will try the above then and report back
Many thanks
No problem, hope it works on Tuesday.
It works!!!!
Thank you so much for this.
In the end, I ended up setting up a bookmark for the URL you gave (eastcoastwifi.train) and then going straight for that. This then avoids the need to cancel the invalid certificate first.
As soon as I clicked said bookmark, I was presented with the correct East Coast log on screen and then bingo. Free WiFi
Of course I had forgotten just how slow it was on the train but never mind.
Again. Many many thanks
Pleased to hear it worked, I wonder many Desire users have just given up! As for the speed on East Coast, I suppose the best thing you can say is that its free and there's usually a 3G reception if all else fails unlike West Coast.

[Q] Android and WiFi with redirects

Posted this in another forum, but you all are the experts. Impossible for me to access my work WiFi because of redirects (splash screen to accept use parameters).
Wondering if a custom ROM fixes it or if there is another solution.
Having an issue connecting to WiFi with Evo updated via official release of 2.2. I couldn't access it via 2.1 either. It's an odd network designation.
However, the iPhone can connect once I okay the error message.
Is there a work around that you may know about? Web search basically told me that the protocol is old and useless and that it should be changed. That is not possible.
Network designation is 1.1.1.1. I was unable to add links clarifying this because I am a new user.
Well Android can not connect to 1.1.1.1 addresses / networks / redirects. However the iPhone can. Is it inherent to the Android, or is there an app or tweak to get it to work.
This message ends by saying it will be fixed with Froyo.
Still can't post links to show what I mean.
Steamliver I just did a Google search for "Android 1.1.1.1" and this was the top result: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=1597
I'm guessing this is the problem you are describing. Sounds frustrating and it has been going on for a long time. The newest post at the time I'm writing this recommends installing the Fennec browser (Firefox for Android, basically) and that worked for the poster.
If you have a laptop you could bring to work and tether via USB, I wonder if that would work? Just a temporary work around to use the phone to establish the wifi connection, then view the browser redirect on the laptop, accept, and then maybe you would be good to go?
Also, the simplest thing might be to call the IT department and ask them for help. Given Android's growing market share, one of them probably already have an Android phone and a fix for this problem. Good luck.
I have tried firefox and that did not solve the problem, does anyone have another ideas how to solve this.
It seems that 1.1.1.1 is locked in the android.

Wi-Fi Tethering Workaround

There seems to be threads around about bypassing the tethering without actually adding it to your plan. Some seems to work, some doesn't. So I'm just gonna post here what works for me. If mods find that it is inappropriate to be posted or what not, you may delete this post. Anyways I'm running a CM10 nightly ROM and I was tethering fine for awhile. It wasn't until recently at Starbucks I was hit with a ADD HOTSPOT TO YOUR PLAN blah blah blah page and I'm like WTF?! Anyways I recently swapped from the 5GB plan to the Unlimited 4G plan so I lost the native tethering from the plan itself. After some searching online I came across a solution (not sure where I saw it anymore but credits to whomever it was).
Step one: Use chrome as browser for device. (Tablet, PC, Laptop, whatever it may be)
Step two: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/user-agent-switcher-for-c/djflhoibgkdhkhhcedjiklpkjnoahfmg Go there and download User Agent Switcher for Chrome. It should install right into Chrome and have a little sign on the top right.
Step three: You could pick the default Android user agent that comes with the application and pages SHOULD load up fine. (Works for me) Unfortunately pages load up in mobile mode, sure you could request desktop mode at the bottom of most pages but that gets annoying. Then there is step four which is optional.
Optional
Step four: You go to settings of the User Agent Switcher, and under the Custom User Agent tab start creating a new User Agent. Fill in the blanks with the first box on the left with what you want to name it. I just named mine Android 4.1. In the second box, enter "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/535.19 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/18.0.1025.45 Safari/535.19" without the quotes. The third box should autofill to Chrome, if not put Chrome in there. I picked the option Append for the next box (not sure if it really matters which you pick). Finally for the last box under Indicator Flag, I put AND. Now click Add, and start using this newly created User Agent to browse pages. This way pages seem to load automatically as desktop mode and doesn't seem to flag the T-mobile hotspot message.
This seems to be working fine for me as of the time being. For how much longer I cannot guarantee. I cannot guarantee if it'll start working for everyone either, but I figured I'll share the information. Hopefully this doesn't go too main stream and T-mobile some how fixes it. That's the downside of TOO many people knowing eh? Enjoy!

lol yeah the workaround was probably spread around since... the sensation days? maybe even mytouch 4g days? it's also found in this pretty large thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1883483.. probably mentioned about 30 times in there.
btw i prefer this user agent switcher https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/user-agent-switcher/lkmofgnohbedopheiphabfhfjgkhfcgf
another note: all the "mac" ones work so you can run CHROME on MAC and it'll work flawlessly.
Another funny thing. Rockmelt, although is based off chrome works completely fine without running user agents.
Windows Chrome and Firefox are blocked by t-mobile.
Heck since I already been mentioning all this...
If you're stuck without a user agent switcher and want to use chrome the manual way to switch it for the page that you're on is
right click > inspect element > settings button (gear icon) (bottom right corner) > overrides tab > check and enable user agent.
You can now download an user agent switcher for chrome on that page... and that page alone

[Q] "Sign in to network" notification

Hello,
A few days ago I started receiving a notification saying "Sign in to network" and below that the name of my carrier (see the screenshot). When I click on the notification, the browser opens up but does not load any page and just stays blank. At that time the notification disappears but then appears again after a while.
Has anyone seen this and do you know why it may be appearing? I am fully stock on 4.2 and unrooted.
Thanks!
Does nobody know?
Hi,
Same problem here (with Mtel network operator),
After updating to 4.2.1 the problem still persists. After I click on the notification it asks me to open in a browser and then opens this address for a second 173.194.70.101/generate_204 , and turns into blank page.
I think that when I walk away from one network cell to a another it asks me to sign into the new cell, but I am not really sure..
I`ll keep posting if I find the solution..
Not sure if there is any difference for GSM variants of Gnex, but have you tried updating your PRL & Profile?
(Settings>About Phone>MTel? system updates)
Sometimes after a flash/upgrade until I update my Sprint profile, service seems spottier. Only other thing I can think is that your phone somehow is no longer provisioned with your carrier, shouldn't be the case (I think) when dealing with GSM carriers since your SIM what provisions the phone, but maybe poke around settings to see if there is some sort of self-provisioning option, or call M-tel.
Check your APNs. You might need new/corrected APN settings or something. That usually shows up when you're on a network (usually WiFi) that needs a user/password or accept a disclaimer to get through to the internet.
However on a mobile network the APN should serve as the connection settings and the SIM serves as authentication to the network. Normally you wouldn't be able to connect to mobile internet. Does MMS work?

Hey, guys, thanks for your input. Actually, since yesterday I stopped receiving this notification all of a sudden. I have not done anything in the mean time, so I guess it was something on the carrier's end that got resolved or something.

Hi there. Since this issue disappeared for me without any action on my end, I am assuming that it is related to something on the carrier's end. It may be worth contacting your carrier's support?

its not apn related problems for me..
Have the same problem Here
Hey guys, i just have the same problem here.
It has been 10days till now
currently using galaxy s4, android 4.2.2, from Indonesia (carrier's : XL Axiata)
Does anyone know how to fix this problem ??
It will very helpful to me, cause i'm very annoyed of this notification
this notification (Sign into Network) pop up nearly 10 times a day.
I have several times contacted the carrier (XL) and the samsung centre too, but both didn't know what is the problem.
Thank you.

Hi there. By trial and error i found out that this icon starts appearing when the carrier throttles your internet speed. For example, I have unlimited internet traffic but when I reach 512 MB of traffic, the internet speed is lowered to 128 kbps. This is when the icon starts appearing for me. I also found out that if you dismiss it, it will appear again if you change connections (e.g. go from wifi to mobile). I find this behaviour annoying but I found no way to prevent it, as it seems to be something on the carrier's side.
I have the same problem only on my android phone (4.2.2) Samsung Galaxy S3 when I am at my home WIFI..
Could it be a virus. only diffference is the IP.. my browser tries to load this: 173.194.35.99/generate_204
i've blocked this IP. I can't even access play store now! rest all things work

i dnt think its caused by virus. Try check ur apn setting. Or reformat ur phone.
When you connect a mobile device with Google Play via WiFi, I have found that I must allow ssl traffic via port 5228. This connection I think is an authorization service deployed by Google. If you trust it or not, when you block outbound port 5228 (or if you block Googles' ip's) you will see the "sign into network" This is because Google Play assumes (poorly) you are connected to a WiFi network which requires a captive portal login (ie Hotel WiFi sign-in page). I am no dev but I believe the "generate_204" thing just forces the mobile browser to open a new tab so the login page will appear. It's not spooky just annoying.
Why did Google choose to deploy ssl over port 5228 and not the standard 443? Not sure, but it might lead to your Firewall's security policy blocking it as it did for mine.
I started getting the same notification on my nexus 5 recently. I had reached my data fair usage allowance and so it started appearing. I noticed that in the data usage setting the warning bar was set to my fair usage limit so I just raised the bar and hey presto no more warnings. Based on this I reckon when your data usage cycle resets each month you'll see the warning disappear until you hit your limit again.
Just done a quick test by dropping the data usage bar back to where it originally was, turned off WiFi and started browsing the web. The warning appeared again.

I have had this issue ever since I got this current phone (not a Samsung, but hear me out). From what I can tell, it is because it can not contact someone (probably Google) via cellular network. I also get this when on a WiFi connection with no internet (or very, very slow), further supporting this.
I am in an interesting situation. My carrier only has 1 APN for both MMS and data combined. However, I only get MMS with my plan, not full data. Therefore, I need to keep data enabled in Android to use MMS. Because of this I get this notification ALL THE TIME.
I'm going to try to get a logcat when it happens and see if I can find the exact service and maybe kill it. I'll update if I figure it out.

I have the same problem.It make notification at the time u linked to mobile data too, and i can't suffer it any more.So i have searched all internet and have no progress.But i found the way to block its notifications rather than voiding generation.
It's a notification generated from "Android System" and seems like a network-check function. So the problem have the mobile carrier's part(I'm in china, you know). And u can't block all notifications of "Android System" using tools like LBE or Gravitybox or anyothers cause it is useful all the time.
This Xposed Mod can help us: NotifyClean, it is the only tool to block several notifications u want of one app.
Use it in ur rooted system with xposed framework,and open it from xposed. It can log all notifications and u can tick the "Sign in to network"s in "Android System".

Question No notification or login page available for Free Wifi

I have used my phone to connect to Free Wifi in fast food shop, which requires me to click a button for Terms and Conditions.
In the past, the login page or notification will pop up automatically.
However, in recent days, even if the Wifi is connected automatically, neither login page nor notification pops up.
I try to connect that page through Chrome, by searching random words or type http://1.1.1.1
It did succeed once, unfortunately it doesn't work later.
Does anyone know how to solve this issue?

This isn't a solution, but I used to have that problem with McD's free WiFi a few years ago and my workaround was to bookmark the free WiFi terms and conditions page.
I think I also used to try to "forget" the WiFi network in Settings and then try to connect to an Internet page to force up the Terms page..
Forgive if this is useless info because I haven't seen that problem in at least a couple of years or more. and am relying on memory.

I am not sure why this happens with my Pixel 6 Pro.....
Just thinking whether there can be a proper fix
It's been a long time, but I seem to recall back when I was using public Wi-Fi (such as McDonald's) more often and if I had this problem (on some older phone), I could access the proper page manually by going to the list of Wi-Fi (long-press on the Wi-Fi Quick Setting Tile) and then maybe long-pressing on the particular Wi-Fi I want the page open for? Or possibly just click on the button to go into the details for that Wi-Fi and I think there's something there for getting to the access page.
Sorry that I can't be more specific - it's been years.
