*EDIT* This appears to only be working for people with NON-unlimited data plans. I apologize for the inconvenience...
Saw this over in the AT&T subforum, originally posted by @ExTREmE99 , just reposting here.
This will disable the carrier check on your Verizon G4 and allow you to use the native WiFi tether - no root needed!
1. 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
When your phone comes back up you will have a fully functional native WiFi tether
i must be doing something wrong because i still get the "you need a subscription" popup
Worked for me, thanks! Needed this a few days ago and couldn't use it n was like "F***, wish I had root" hahaha. Oh and also shouldn't this be posted in General?

when do you see the subscription message?
try typing:
adb devices
you should see a string of characters listing your device. if it shows no device, then you need to double check that you have your device drivers installed

don't use the hotspot app - in fact, disable that one.
You want to use the built in functionality to tether (not technically an app)
Go to settings, More (under wireless networks), then "Mobile Hotspot". You can setup your SSID and password in there. Also, you can create a shortcut in your notification bar by scrolling over to the right side, clicking edit, then checking the box next to "Mobile Hotspot"
Hope that helps.

Could you try disabling the verizon hotspot app? Mine was disabled way before I discovered this so I may need to add this step to the instructions. you may want to go through the steps one more time after that to ensure everything is set correctly. Don't forget to restart either. It works great on mine so it should for yours as well - unless you took the update a week ago?
Let me know - Thanks!

I've been very careful not to take the update. Is the hot spot app have a weird name or something? I can't seem to find it in the app manager or using rom toolbox

hmmm i think I'm confused. My Hotspot app is apparently still in my app drawer. When i click on it it just takes me to the native hotspot functionality.
Honestly I'd attempt to run those commands again. It would help if you took a screen shot of the command prompt window after running all of the commands. After each command it should pause for a second or two then jump to the next line with no errors or responses.
Is your USB debugging on? Also, are you in MTP or PTP USB mode when plugged into your PC?

I had to put my device in PTP mode in order for ADB to show the device, after the device was confirmed with adb devices, I issued the commands this is the output

When I attempt to enable hotspot I am greeted with the "Use of this service requires a subscription..."
FoxFi seems to work, I just HATE having to change my lock screen in order to use the damn thing!
I'm willing to run further tests and commands if you would like, please just let me know.
I have NOT taken any over the air update. I used the Debloater tool and blocked/hid the app.

Here's a screenshot of my terminal window:
I'm using the native tethering just like everybody else (Settings, More, flick the tethering switch to On and receive the service check). Haven't taken the OTA and have the service disabled via debloater tool. I appreciate the help!
At this point I'm not sure why some are reporting that this works while others aren't. I added a message on the original post warning that this isn't a for sure thing. I'll be sure to update if/when I find a fix or what is going wrong, but for now I think I have enough info to look into this. thanks for your help everyone and I hope that I can find a fix for this. Worst case - we have to wait until we have root to enable this.

Ok. Sorry, but I'm not running that version. (Didn't want to bother with backing everything up in order to update and then do it all again in order to revert back when the official update came).
Hopefully someone can get you what you need. I think it would be ok to ask it in the thread with all the server links though. At least, I don't see why you can't since it is definitely related.

Must have your Shield rooted
apps needed installed
-AppOps
-Settings Editor
-Snowball
-Heads Up Notifications
-terminal emulator
Install the 5 above apps.
Grant settings editor WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS permission in terminal
-su
-pm Grant by4a.setedit22 android/.permission WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS
Add Snowball and Heads Up listeners to active listeners
-go to secure table in Settings Editor
-choose "enabled_notification_listeners" and choose editor value
-replace all text with "com.snowball.app/.nsprocess.NotificationService:codes.simen.l50notifications/.NotificationListenerService"
Grant draw over apps permission to snowball and Heads Up in AppOps
-for each app change "this app can appear over top of other apps" to allow
Now open Heads up and snowball and run through the setups.
You should now get notifications.

open terminal and put in"pm grant by4a.setedit22 android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS"
install heads up
-go to secure table in Settings Editor

-replace all text with "codes.simen.l50notifications/.NotificationListenerService"
open terminal and put in "pm grant codes.simen.l50notifications android.permission.SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW"
let me know how that works
Quick question before I try this, is there a way to turn off notifications? Like say I don't want notifications from specific apps - how do I stop this if there is no way to turn off notifications from within the app??
Tbh I only want notifications coming from one app only if poss

Can anyone else help with this?
can you adb into your shield?
No pc or root, I have been using termux recently to upload music to Google play music as there's no way to do this with Android atm, which is working fine. I tried your code again the other day using termux, seems like your code you asked me to enter needed a few spaces in places for it to recognize the command but I still got an error, I'll upload a screenshot later on when I'm at home
Try using "ADB Shellkit" to enter the commands, I've tried it and you need at least ADB access to follow this walkthrough without root.
Hi,
Our Xiaomi MI 9T is splendid with its great AMOLED full screen without any notch or hole.
However, the web browsers like Chrome (and others apps) doesn't propose the possibility in the settings to remove the notification bar and to get a true immersive full screen mode.
No problem, adb is there!
No need to root the smartphone.
EDIT: I have tested "Immersive Manager Application" from Google Play Store and it's perfect. Very simple and it works even when you reboot your phone.
No more need to type adb commands below except at least few adb commands to grant the Secure Settings permission to the app. This is well explained by the application when you launch it the first time.
I let the adb commands below for information in case we had some "purists" who prefer adb than an immersive app.
1/ Enable the Developper mode
Go to Parameters/ About the phone
Click many times (at least 10) on the MIUI Version to activate the Developper mode
2/ Enable USB Debugging
Go to Parameters/... Others parameters/Developper options
Click on USB debugging
Click on Install via USB => You will have to connect to your MI account
Click on USB debugging (security parameters)
3/ Launch adb on your PC
Get adb.exe on the net (very easy)
Put it in a folder of your PC (for instance C:/adb)
Connect your smartphone to the PC
Launch a DOS command window
Go to the adb folder => cd /adb
To check if your smartphone is ready, type:
Code:
adb devices
If it's the first time, there will be a popup on your smartphone to authorize the adb commands
Then, normally your device will appear after typing "adb devices"
4/ Get the list of applications installed on your smartphone
Code:
adb shell pm list packages
Retrieve the name of the application(s) you want to remove the notification bar.
5a/ For instance, hide the notification bar only for Chrome and Google Photos
Code:
adb shell settings put global policy_control immersive.status=com.android.chrome,com.google.android.apps.photos
Note: Each time you enter this command, you cancel the previous one. You need to type only one command with all the apps you want to remove the notification bar (names of app are separated by a comma ,).
5b/ For instance, if you want to hide the notification bar for all the applications
Code:
adb shell settings put global policy_control immersive.status=*
6/ If you want to cancel this setting and put back the notification bar
Code:
adb shell settings put global policy_control null*
Enjoy your brillant full screen mainly when you are in dark mode.
:good:
Pls the screen..

Do you have root permissions? If the asnwer is "yes" you can do this:
Install terminal emulator from google play store. Open it and writte "su"
now writte this:
settings put global policy_control immersive.status=*
Tachan! you have immensive mode active. Only save the command in a note app. Always you reboot your phone the only thing you have to do is open terminal, su and paste your command.
A lot more easy and fast than do it with adb. the only "problem" is you need root.
If someone knows how to add an exception, please say so.
How do you show it on lock screen? Any ideas?

I had previously created a task with Tasker and AutoTools (paid version) to change the immersive mode with the "Custom Setting" feature. But knowing that there are many apps (free and paid version) doing that better than AutoTools, it's not usefull to describe how I did it.

With Tasker you already have an option to make all apps you want to go immersive! There is no need to use any other command or app.
I believe everybody in the world should buy tasker
Is the best Android app. It may looks hard in the begining, but your imagination is the limit to do whatever you want.

You're right. I had never tested the split screen function. The notification bar is not hidden on split screen mode even when immersive mode is activated. The result is a bit weird as there is a mix of notification bar and app on the top of the screen.
"Google search" indicates that you are not the first one to face this issue... but apparently no solution has been found so far.

Hello,
My screen is damaged and is just black but the phone itself still works. I can still use android auto until I fix the screen.
Is there a way I can retrieve texts from the phone to the computer?
Many of the programs I looked at require confirmation from the phone and I have no way of clicking allow. Is there any way to get the messages?
Thanks
Is your usb debugging enabled?
Also does the touch works?

If you are interested in messages, contacts and call history only, a simple solution is to check your Google account. Obviously you should have the account on the phone and should have selected to back up to that account.
adb might help

https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy/releases/download/v1.12.1/scrcpy-win32-v1.12.1.zip
The official github repo link: https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy
Download and extract the zip, open command prompt in the extracted folder, connect your phone to your pc (debugging must be enabled, and pc must be allowed) and type scrcpy on cmd.
P.s you can check if the touch works by touching the screen and checking the response. You know how to turn on the flash. Try turning it on. This can help if your pc isnt allowed debugging on your phone. You get a prompt message on your phone to allow this pc. You can guess where the OK button is on the screen and try pressing it.
