WiFi hotspot on Oreo - Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers

I miss my custom rom with WiFi hotspot enabled. Is there a way currently on Oreo?

The native hotspot works for me, I'm on Verizon.

I have plan that makes you subscribe

With Verizon it usually pops up wanting me to subscribe but it isn't on Oreo.

I used pdanet with FoxFi for my hotspot when I had an unlimited plan on Verizon, but that was on lollipop. Not sure if it'll work with Oreo.

Pda no longer allowed

Root your phone via adb and add
net.tethering.noprovisioning=true
To your build prop. Restart and you should be good to go. I have done it with my Verizon pixel and it work just as it did before on any other version.

Where can I find build prop.

That worked but mke sure you set the permissions correctly.

verizon native app in settings works for me with no issues

Could you link to instructions? I hope this will work on Sprint. I have grandfather unlimited data and have been trying to get hotspot to no avail.
I haven't updated to Oreo yet; OTA notification was received earlier today.

Hotspot working for me on Vodafone

I'm on Pixel, rooted Oreo, grandfathered unlimited AT&T.
I successfully got tethering working using:
net.tethering.noprovisioning=true
but, it broke my SMS and Calls.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks

Do you still need to enter this command and how?
settings put global tether_dun_required 0

Hi, in my case I can access the APN and edit them. I CAN NOT access the Hotspot menu to turn on / off (it is hidden, it does not appear in the settings menu). I'm using a SIM from a carrier outside of the USA, everything works fine on the cell phone, except hotspot.
Any idea to help solve the problem. I not ROOT, momentarily I am using PDAnet + as an alternative, I prefer to use the native function, PDAnet + disconnects and changes the SSID every 15 minutes.
Data from my cell phone:
Samsung S8 plus (Oreo 8.0.0)
Model: SM-G955U
ver. software: G955USQU5CRG3
ver. hardware: REV1.0​

You are in the wrong forum. This is the Google Pixel XL forum. I'd suggest you post this question in the Samsung 8+ forums. Good luck!

thank you, sorry for the error.

WIFI Tethering

Can anybody enable wifi tethering?
I try but get an error with rogers rom with rogers kernel
As an FYI, the feature works on stock Rogers phone. [just tried it with mine]
Thanks, indeed my custom kernel was the cause of it all! thanks again
Think we could find a fix for the AT&T Version of this phone? It's one feature I love.

Root the phone.
http://www.theandroidsoul.com/root-captivate-glide-rogers-and-att/
Use Titanium Backup to remove the tetheringmanager package.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hudXl76Rwfg
There may be other ways to do it but it worked for me. I had to reboot after removing the package or I got an error.
you can also use root explorer (must be rooted) to delete : /system/app/tethering manager.apk
DONE!
tether freely until they snag you by mac address/packet info... At&the now detecting tethering by packet type value
An app called Easy Tether will allow you to USB tether your ATT i927 without rooting.
it does require a software install on your laptop.
Wifi tethering doesn't work ... at all
Rooted or not: Wifi tethering doesn't work on mine.
Tested it with both ROMs available: Rogers & AT&T : same result : doesn't work.
I tried to remove "Tethering Manager.apk" : same result.
I always get the same error message.
After ticking the checkbox to enable "WiFi mobile hotspot"
It says :"Deconnecting WiFi"
And then "Data not available"...
And shuts down the mobile hotspot (which was not even started).
Any idea ?
Thanks.
Update : USB Tethering is now working with Rogers ROM - still no WiFi tethering (exit with an error) !

Your method works! I used titanium backup to make a backup and then remove tethering manager package and now the wifi tethering works
Many thanks!!
Alternatively, you can use the wireless tether app (I verified it works if rooted - http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/) but this method is definitely better
Works real good
Yes...I have tested it and it works fine....thanks for the link and the info
Pdanet apparently works

Thanks so much! I was trying to use another method, and didn't like the Rogers rom because it didn't have some of the integrations with my Corporate email but deleting the TetheringManager worked! Awesome!
Now I just hope I can get the ICS Update fine when that comes out Hopefully someone will do a stock ATT ICS rooted img
I have a problem: I can start wifi sharing, my computer connects to it, but then it says "limited access", without being capable of accessing to internet. i have tried on two different computers, with no success, both using Windows 7. With my older Samsung Galaxy Young and Motorola Droid 2 Global I have never had any issues.
I have tried both by removing the wifi sharing manager, and also using the Wifi tethering for Root users, mentioned above, but with no success.
Hope someone can help.

I have almost the identical setup.
Samsung Captivate Glide (SGH-I927, AT&T) I927UCLJ3 ICS 4.0.4 original stock ROM Clockwork Mod Recovery Rooted
Downloaded the Foxfi APK file onto my computer transferred it to my 927 and installed it.It works just fine (haven't used it much yet). It is the free "base" version (which is not available from google play store for ATT phones).
You have to go to the Foxfi web site to get the download,without any interference from big brother!

I converted my ATT to Developer Edition and have tethering and hotspot. Not sure if you can convert the Verizon version to DE.

You could try this app - http://pdanet.co/android/ (available in google play store, but may be blocked by Sprint and AT&T.)
Also works on non-rooted phones!
The only downside is you'll need to pay a one-off fee for the full version unlock key.
I have tried pdanet+ and foxfi before, it doesn't work on Sprint.
I am looking for a way to do it with root access.

Not sure how Sprint detects tethering, but there are a lot of different tethering workarounds out there, maybe one will work for you. Get an Sqlite editor, and navigate to /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/telephony.db and click on "carriers" and "carriers_cache", screenshot each, and post them here. I found a way to make it work on T-Mobile, might work for Sprint too.
I got SQlite Editor and found the file but it tells me "Error: no editing of system databases yet"

It just always worked for me, maybe try dirty flashing the ROM and wiping both caches and see if it helps.
Tethering
Hmm...do you have Android 5.0 or 5.1?? I wonder if that has anything to do with it. I recently updated via ota update and then rooted my phone.
Using LeeDroid here with no luck, devices can connect to my hotspot but no internet

HTC one m9 rooted, S-off, Verizon, CM13.
Have an HTC one m9 himawl, that is rooted and also S-Off and has TWRP custom recovery. I'm running CM-13. Initially after I flashed custom recovery and CM-13 (after S-Off ing) my GPS did not work. So I reflashed back to stock, enabled GPS, then reflashed custom recovery and cm13 and my GPS worked. Alright so I had a similar issue with my screen casting, I followed the same method of flashing to stock, then enabling everything I could think, then reflashed to CM. That seemed to work. Now however I want to get WIFI hotspot to work but it will not. I can enable hotspot on CM13, people can connect to my hotspot, but no data is flowing through to the devices connected. Any help appreciated. Again this is HTC One M9 for Verizon that is S-Off and rooted. Thanks in advance.

ONECLICK tool: SIM-unlock, Network manual selection, HotSpot & Bluetooth modem unlock
Hello guys!
I have a nice news for any people, who using LS980
Several days i was in meditation about using Sprint LS980 in GSM network with native Android features, like Wi-Fi and bluetooth Internet sharing, and ability to chosing preferred GSM network by hand.
So, i did some research and made small tool, which will help you to get things, we have told about in simple steps
Requirement:
You should be on clean ZVG
You should be rooted
You should enable USB debugging
Lets make a freedom!
1. Plug you smartphone to PC
2. Install latest USB drivers
3. Be sure that
Code:
adb devices
command will return you device id
4. Download simfree.7z and unpack it. exe-file absolutely free from any viruses - i made it via BAT2EXE converter
5. Install Insecure adbd http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1687590 and enable insecure adbd daemon
6. Run simfree.exe and allow root-right for adbd on your smartphone screen
7. Your phone will reboot
Enjoy!

It works, and contains numerous apn settings to I got data right away.
Unfortunately, it doesn't disable hands free activation, that step must be done manually.
Thanks!
does it let you change apn settings so you can add in new apns?
Awesome!!

You mean ##3282# (##DATA#), yes?
simfreefree
Before running the SIMFREE.EXE you should backup:
- /system/etc/apns-conf.xml -- (stock LS980 ZVG here)
- /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/telephony.db
- /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/carrier (/dev/block/mmcblk0p27) -- (stock LS980 ZVG here)
That is if you want to be able to easily undo the changes.
---
If you are wary of MS-DOS batch files wrapped in EXE files performing mysterious actions and want to handle this yourself:
Install these files:
- apns-conf.xml
- carrier.img
Remove this file:
- /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/telephony.db
---
I wonder if the carrier.img packaged with simfree.exe is copy of the carrier partition of a GSM ZVG G2? For some reason the props patch inside of it has the Sprint props file from the stock carrier.img converted to filenames in their own directory. What is *that* about? Odd.
I'm a bit peeved that someone tosses up an EXE without providing any breakdown of what it actually *does*. At close examination it looks innocuous though, but you do never know.
Worked Great!! Cheers!

Perfect tool, works flawless and can see the much needed tethering options can you shed some light as to how to enable the data roaming onto the stock ZVG ROM as the option is missing...
Unlocked a LS980 Bad ESN with this method, doesn't seems to work. Don't know is Bad ESN device block from all carriers in US or Just for Sprint?
After unlocked, put a T-mobile sim in, but no signal bar.
Yataaaa!!!! It Worked, It Worked
wowowow LG G2 LS980 32GB Sprint, after several nights digging and digging on how to unlock on lollipop update, finally u saved my ass. But network bar keeps dropping, it's on and off but at least calls work, and it's not affected.
Those looking for how to configure APN, Just download https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=it.appando.app.changeApn. to get APN settings for data. this will unveil your hidden apn and allow you to configure data settings.
However i can't change Network Type eg. 2G/3G anytime i try to do that via the radio switcher app, it says 'This Application Does Not Work ON This Device. Please does anyone knows how to fix this?

I have ATT and can not tether. Its tried to tell me to sign up for a plan. Im NOT rooted yet though, are you?
I was trying to hold off on rooting this phone for, well no real reason at all, but tethering is kind of a must for me.
Tried PDAnet and FoxFi also with no luck
You can enable tethering without root by modifying build.prop while in recovery. Your bootloader must be unlocked. There's a post in the general section about it.

yeah read that, thanks. Right now was holding off on that as well since it would wipe the phone and pretty much null OTA updates. I mean if Im unlocking the bootloader, a few more steps is TWRP and then FLASH AWAY! lol
Im sure Ill root, they always root
I agree; losing OTA updates is kind of a pain, but worth it to me to get tethering working again. I just flash updates manually from Google's stock images in fastboot, then modify build.prop to re-enable tethering.

no root. nothing. I just tested and it worked. I am on a recent next plan, not an old "unlimited" plan if that makes a difference.

Hey, I actually just discovered this yesterday after months of wondering how to achieve this. I'm on cricket (subsidiary of AT&T) so i assume this should work. Unfortunately, I can't link you directly to where I got this information because I have no clue at this point But this is what I did. Download some app that can edit your build.prop. I use Root Essentials, which you can find on XDA Labs or the Play Store. At the end of your build.prop, add the line:
net.tethering.noprovisioning=true
Save, reboot and I think you should be good, because that's all I did.

I'm on 7.1.1 the latest PixelROM. I remember reading about an additional step after the one I told you, but there were a few comments from people saying that what I told you was all they needed for tethering to work. And that's all I did as well. I'll edit this post to add in the additional step in a bit.

Okay so same ROM as me.
Are these the additional step?
Didn't work for me though, but I also can't tell if the adb commands executed properly, screenshot attached.
. Enable developer mode (Go to Settings -> About phone, and click on the build number until the developer mode is enabled).
2. Enable USB debugging under Settings -> Developer options
3. Connect the device with a USB cable to a computer with the Android SDK platform tools installed
4. Start an adb shell: adb shell
5. In the adb shell, run these commands one by one:
settings put global tether_dun_required 0
settings put system tether_entitlement_check_state 0
reboot
I think those were it, I'm guessing it didn't work after you rebooted right?

yeah it did not, still getting the "To enable, go to att.com/mywireless or dial 611" But I know I can't just enable it because I have a grandfathered unlimited plan and they won't let you
Yea even though I'm with cricket I got the exact same message. I changed to their unlimited everything plan a few months ago and was disappointed to find out that the plan made me lose tethering But like I said I just found this fix yesterday, no idea why it isn't working for you
I had a similar problem with a dutch provider. I solved this problem by adding ,dun at the apn type.
So APN type was default,dun.
I could not turn on hotspot tethering by the quick access tiles however by settings --> more --> tethering and hotspot --> wifi hotspot it works.
Disabling hotspot mode with the quick access works well.
Try it
Unlock carrier tether permanently, No root required on all ROM types.
