Is it possible to get unlimited 4g on the hotspot? I'm on an old grandfather plan and my hotspot with custom roms are unlimited 4g. I was wondering if it would work the same with new plan.

Hi all,
I was wondering if anyone has jumped on the new T-mobile Unlimited Value plan, and if your are able to tether using the built in tethering setting? I see that tethering is not a feature that is supported with this plan, and I was wondering if they were somehow able to see if you are tethering the data or not. My gut says no, but I just wanted to see if anyone has tried it out yet. Currently on their pre-paid $30 5GB of data plan, and it works just fine. Thanks!
if you have a rooted GN running CM or say AOKP you should be able to tether without problems from my understanding. I am not sure yet if it is stopped since i do not know anyone that has the data plan and uses a GN. The other thing is to get the data plan you would have move from your pre paid plan to a contract.

I'm still using the 5GB data plan. Has anyone gotten the mobile hotspot to work with the truly unlimited data plan of tmobile? Or even the prepaid go plan of AT&T (i believe both might be disabled the same way?) I cannot confirm on the unlimited tmobile data since I' still on the 5GB plan, and on the AT&T prepaid (50/mo plan for non smartphone) the mobile hotspot cannot be turned on, it just goes back to off when turned on.
Could it be an apn setting? Please advice.
Thanks

Have you figured out a way cuz I justt used my 5GB of mobile hotspot for the my samsung galaxy relay with 4g
Ok, so I recently bought a Samsung GS3 from my sister that has T-mobile. I took it to metro and they unlocked it and activated it for me. I chose the $50 Plan which gives me 2.5gb of Blazing Fast Internet. I also purchased the mobile hotspot. When I reached 2.5gb of data, it slowed down. I tether to play xbox. Unable to afford legit internet lol. Before, I was able to tether with my LG Motion 4g for free!. I never lagged as much, I was able to connect my tablet and ran with some smooth speeds. (with the $50 Plan). So I called and managed to call metro pcs and they were able to change it back to the lg motion. My speeds were still slow!. I asked them if I can change it to the $60 plan since it was unlimited and they said that Tethering is not compatible? Is there a way to have Unlimited Data and tether at the same time? I don't want to pay for Unlimited Data without being able to tether to my other devices. HELP!
You can't add tether to the $60 plan, but you may be able to tether if you flash roms with native tether enabled, or search and find other ways to tether.. And on a side note, they did not unlock your device, all T-Mobile phones are compatible with metroPCS

Hi T-Mobile-ites!
I'm considering switching to T-Mobile but I have a question about the 2.5gb Mobile HotSpot vs unlimited 4G. I want unlimited 4G hotspot and wonder if anyone is doing this not through the Mobile HotSpot app, but rather through a stand alone WiFi app such as WiFi tether router by Fabio Grasso? Does T-mobile block this form of hotspot?
I'm currently on a grandfathered unlimited plan with another carrier but its pricey. I won't switch to T-Mobile or anyone else if I can't get unlimited hotspot for my laptop, streaming internet video, etc.
Thanks!
I came to tmobile from att from a grandfathered unl plan. They have started instating a 5gb limit on those plans. Truly unlimited for tmo is only 70 bucks plus what ever you are paying for your phone. Say roughly 90. Plus with the unlimited you still get 2.5 of hotspot. I am looking into right now if with a third party app you can get around the Hotspot limit.
I just noticed this, it says I used 0.0MB of high speed data?!?
I'm currently on the $70 unlimited data plan, so I'm grandfatehered.
Can anyone help and explain?
That is for the non unlimited plans
I have truly unlimited and I still get LTE
