[Q] WiFi Tether Broken after JDQ39 4.2.2 udpate VZW stock rooted

Hello,
I an running stock rooted 4.2.2 on vzw gnex. I have been using wifi tether since I got the phone and now with 4.2.2 it is not working. I get started with errors warning. log shows failed to configure AP and start AP.
I tried MWALT2s disable of native tether check which seem to run fine in recovery but I still get the same errors.

Has anyone with stock rooted 4.2.2 been able to get wifi tether working?
Thanks,
Pupule

the wifi tether app no longer works but the built-in tether does. there's a copy of a modified version of wifi tether floating around (actually, in this Q & A forum thread!) that some are saying does work but I have not tested it myself (yet)
{edited to add} well, I just installed the hacked version of wifi tether and it works perfectly. the link to it is here in the Q & A thread so you should be able to find it. you will need "unknown sources" checked to allow it to install...

[Q] Stuggling trying to get tethering to work on verizon phone.

I've scanned a lot of posts and tried many things but can't get tethering to work on my Verizon phone with jellybean 4.2.2.
Here is my latest attempt. I rooted phone with saferoot. didn't touch the recovery system i.e. its stock. Installed wifi tether trevi mod.
In wifi tether settings:
- Device Profile > Generic ICS/JB (wlan0)
- Setup Method > Netd-Mcd (master)
- checked 'Send Netd Max Client Cmd'
- checked 'WiFi-driver reload 2'
- checked 'MSS clamping'.
- checked 'Routing fix'.
When I try to activate tethering I get "Tethering started with errors! please check show log.".
When i click show log i get message "Unable to open log file. File does not exist"
Is this an old solution which no longer works? If this won't work for my phone can someone suggest other ways of getting tethering to work?
Thanks for any help.

Sorry, could you expand on that a little please. Exactly how does upgrading to kitkat help me?
Will it make the solution i tried work? Will it make some other tethering solution workable?
I don't want to upgrade for the sake of upgrading. I'm good with jellybean unless its preventing
tethering from working.
Thanks.

[Q] Wifi Tether on Sprint Note 2 as of May 2015

I've been scouring forums trying to find an answer, hoping someone can help.
I've got a rooted Sprint Note II running Android 4.4.2 and I can't get any version of wifi tethering to work.
I tried the X Tether xposed module (with a bunch of different settings) and TrevE Mod of course doesn't work.
I tried to purchase Fabio Grasso's WiFi tether router (which I saw many times in my forum searches) but playstore on my phone says it's not supported for my device and won't let me download it.
I was able to purchase and install it on my Note Pro 12.2 tablet, but couldn't get an APK to transfer over to my Note 2. The apk downloader chrome extension only works on a computer, not on the android version of chrome (as far as I can tell) so I couldn't get it that way either.
I honestly forgot which ROM I flashed, but it was either Diamond Rom v6.0 or Alliance-NE2-Build_1 (pretty sure it was the latter)
I'm willing to flash another ROM to get this to work. Not sure what to do, but I really want tether working again, especially since my tablet is the wifi only version.
Any tips?

rwilco's rom's been working fine with tethering for me:

i'm only using 1.1 and using the native wifi hotspot

WIFI DISCONNECT FIX ! disable ipv6

Hi ,
I have lost more than 30 hours trying to fix the "wifi randomly disconnecting issue", I was on the verge of buying a oneplus 3, but here is my fix (for root) \0/
the problem is ipv6 which is not supported by lg g4 (what a phone, never LG anymore)
- download "afwall+" from playstore
- preference>rule/connectivity>block ipv6
- back to main screen : enable firewall, apply
yay !

Is it necessary to have root access?

Problems with pdanet app

I have a problem with the pdanet app when installing the version in android 8.1, I happen to see a warning that says: your device is not compatible with wps, and does not share wifi signal from that app, which does not happen with android 7, someone do you have any solution?
PS: sorry for my english..

Same problem here. I have a Moto G5s, and wifi sharing doesnt work when I updated to Android Oreo.

I used to use the following app - it requires root & a bit of knowledge to set it up - read their instructions
It may work for you - I no longer have this device so I can't give you the config for it but try goggling & seeing if a config is already on their site
I used it to bypass the mobile network tether throttle so they couldn't detect you are tethering & reduce your speed
It is a paid app though but Google is your friend

Without root you are basically using the phones native wifi hotspot
Can you not activate wifi hotspot via the wifi settings in your phones settings menu?
Technically all apps that don't use root are just using their app & interface to turn on wifi hotspot which you should be able to yourself via wifi settings

I hope I can help you
the only way I can make it work is to be connected to a Wi-Fi network regardless of whether there is a network or not and then we enter the hotspot in the PDANET app and then you disconnect from the network without turning off the wifi and keep sharing the signal .
it's the only way I can make it work
