So many variables in play with getting the native hotspot working. Mine is working fine. I'm on a Google Pixel XL. (Verizon) Android 9. Unlocked. Rooted (with Magisk 16.7 (1671)), Magisk Manager 5.8.3, and using the module MagiskHide Props Config to set the prop net.tethering.noprovisioning to true.
On Android 8 and earlier, the module "Tethering Enabler" worked, but I found it no longer worked once I upgraded to Android 9. The module MagiskHideProps Config allows you to set various custom props systemlessly (much as we used to back in the day by just editing the build.prop). You can find information on how to use the module on XDA and it is linked in the module documentation itself. (The module is very well documented. and creates a terminal UI that you execute from a terminal on your device (or via ADB if prefer). I use Termux (from play store on my device). Once you get the custom prop setup via the "Props" program, you can verify it is working via terminal emulator on the device or from computer/ADB by running as root getprop net.tethering.noprovisioning and verifying it returns true. I suspect that your issue is with the Tethering Enabler module (assuming that is what you are using) as I don't believe it was updated to keep up with the changes in Magisk and perhaps Android 9.
Anyways - good luck. Let me know how it goes.

If you're on Verizon you don't need to anything other than root the phone and the hotspot will work just fine.

That is only if you are subscribed to the hotspot as part of your plan. Most Verizon plans include some level of hotspot subscription - albeit with throttling to barely usable speeds after hitting data thresholds. I didn't mention that I am on a grandfathered unlimited plan which does not include hotspot. The setting of that build.prop that I mentioned circumvents the subscription check and allows my hotspot to work. Even if rooted, without that prop set, I hit the subscription check and am told to contact Verizon to subscribe. As I said - lots of variables with getting hotspot to work.

I'm not on a hotspot plan and all I've ever done is root my device (currently a Pixel XL) and setup the hotspot and it works. I'm also grandfathered in with unlimited data and I did it just recently when installing Pie.

Hmmmm - well that is interesting and certainly a different experience than mine. I've always had to do some level of mod - build.prop edits, modified carrierentitlement.apk in the SuperSu days and then tethering enabler or the systemless prop edit I just described on Magisk....(I'm also on a Pixel XL / Stock)

Cool - I didn't realize that module had been updated to work on PIE. Looks like a few viable options to get tethering working depending on preference. I'm going to stick with the MagiskHideProps method for now as it also allows for other systemless build.prop edits if any are needed in the future....Thanks, all!

MagiskHideProps allows you to enjoy the effect of editing build.prop without actually physically altering the file. You are basically injecting build.prop values into system memory at boot time (my understanding). This achieves the same effect as editing build.prop without making changes to the file itself in system. (systemless change) Once you have installed MagiskHideProps you can use a terminal emulator on your phone or ADB Shell session via your computer to execute the simple program "Props". The documentation of MagiskHideProps is very detailed and easy to follow. You need to add a new prop set to True for net.tethering.noprovisioning. Good luck.

Excellent! I edited the build.prop using a text editor and added this setting but to no avail. I guess the trick is to use the BuildProp Editor app and follow your instructions. My Pixel 3 XL's native hotspot works like a champ now. Thanks again!!!!

Bootloop while changing Buildprops

Every time I change my Buildprops my phone ends up in a bootloop. I'm rooted, using 920 text editor and es file explorer. Made sure both had root access and the New build props saves successfully. I even set permissions. What am I doing wrong? I've been trying to switch my AT&T operated to open this put me in a bootloop twice. I also followed the Carrier IQ removal and went into a bootloop there as well. I'm doing something wrong that's for sure but what?

1. You can't change build prop without boot looping
2. You must be missing something whole trying to disable carrier iq, please list your steps on what you're doing to disable carrier iq as well as what your purpose is to alter build prop. I've disabled my carrier iq successfully with no bootloops

I followed the directions from the AT&T forum to
Get rid of my carrier I.Q. As for changing the operater to open instead of ATT I opened es file explorer went into settings tapped to run as root. Then I went into system build props opened with 920 text editor found ro. Operator AT&T switched it to open then saved it went back in to build props permission changed it to 644 saved it then rebooted. That's when it went into bootloop.

I read on xda that it was easier to change the operator to open than it was to change carrier I.Q.
Yeah changing some build prop elements will do that with our phones. You need xposed, android tuner, titanium backup, and some sort of file explorer that lets you access system locations. Like root explorer. Give me a minute to find you all the information on how to disable carrier iq without touching build prop

[Q] Build.prop keeps reverting after reboot

I was trying to change model no. In build prop but after reboot changes not save.
Check if you have root. Bcoz sometimes magisk fails to function properly.

Thanks for the suggestion and you are right there is a magisk module(external sd card enabler) which keeps on reverting the build.prop edits........ So than i figure it out that i have to edit build.prop which is created by magisk module in magisk folder in system or delete the module than edit build.prop
Again Thanks for your help!!!?
You're welcome!
Doesn't magisk prevents system modification ? It's how it works, correct me if I'm wrong.
You can't tweak via root explorer, you can't flash the usual twrp flashable stuff, you gotta build your magisk module. Which is in all honestly uber simple and very convenient.
you are far from right duck...
Magisk is a root solution, so you get to have the rights. You can edit via file explorer , granted with root permission. Lolz. Building Modules is really simplified thou, right on that mate.
"YOU CAN TWEAK, via Root Explorer, lol. <-from a guy using Magisk. You just gotta need that root.
Yup.
Pretty much as OP I did a bunch of root editing / flashed some stuff via twrp, and nothing remained at reboot. Never saw that before, and since it works with magisk I may had jumped to conclusions too fast.
figured it out!!!!!
i know im late to the party but i recently came across this same problem. all yous gotsa doos is modify the build.prop located in /sbin/.magisk/mirror/system
after saving changes just check thru all the other location you know for build.prop just to double check that the changes have been made. if the build.prop is not the same in all locations, then the changes will not stick. if the changes affect all system build.props your good to go reboot device and do whacha do (note: just the system build.prop, not the vendor).

Android 10 Rooted Can't Edit build.prop

So, grabbed the latest OTA, and went through the usual re-root cycle, but was unable to edit the build.prop. While /root is mountable, /root/system is not, which means no tethering for me.
Anyone else running into the same issue?
I have the same issue, I've been fighting with it all day.
I patched the boot.img with Magisk Manager and flashed it, Magisk Manager show's I'm installed and Root Checker says I'm rooted, I was even able to install Adaway. But i cannot use any root app that needs to mount /System
I tried using Root Uninstaller and it says it has root access but cannot mount /system as R/W
It seems Magisk is only able to partially root on Android 10
I tried this with the Canary version and the standard version of Magisk and the same issue both times
Same issue on regular pixel:
sailfish:/ # mount -o remount,rw /system
'/dev/block/sda33' is read-only
lame

if all you want to do is edit a prop in build.prop, just use the Magisk module MagiskHidePropsConfig....works like a charm (at least it did on Android 9 - assume it would work on 10....it sounded like it worked on the betas)....
https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/module-magiskhide-props-config-t3789228
This has been a problem since the Q beta came out, with each update I tried to figure something out. With no luck! I tried the Magisk Mod but it didn't seem to work.
suggestions would be most appreciated!!
Thinkin about a clean install....maybe.....
Edit: It was also a problem with the P beta until it was out of beta (That was my hope for this)

It doesn't physically change anything in system. The intent is to offer the same functionality as physically editing the build.prop without modifying that file. It creates the prop and value setting and loads into into memory at boot time.....(similar to the way the build.prop file is read at boot time for those settings.) At least that is my understanding. It works for me on Android 9 for setting the prop for tethering...for example. You can confirm it works by using the getprop command to verify the prop you set is set as you intended.
Welp, still can't mount /system or edit the file directly, but PropsConfig seems to be good enough for my needs.

Can you tell me what the process is that got you tethering capability?
Having the same issue on my P2XL which was upgraded via flash of full image minus -w. Using latest canary build of Magisk. I couldn't mount system or anything under it.
I then downgraded Magisk to v19.3 and had no issues mounting system using FX File Explorer, etc. and still had root. But I couldn't mount anything under system so I still can't edit build.prop.
For those who are just trying to find a way to get hotspot working (via build.prop edit), try this...worked for me on a dirty upgrade (A9 -> A10 via full image flash without -w) + latest Magisk Canary:

Thanks for posting this, it worked great on my Pixel XL on Sprint. I had about given up on being able to edit the build.prop.
You no longer need the canary version of Magisk. Version 20.00 will rebuild your boot.img and if you load busybox and use a terminal type "props" and follow the onscreen menu. you can get your tethering back. My output:
Your prop

Are you sure that your screenshot of the props output is correct? Because it looks like you have the value set to "net.tethering.noprovisioning" and the prop name has =true in it. I'm just trying to figure this out because I've tried this and everything else trying to get my hotspot to work. My hotspot will turn on and devices can connect to it, but they don't have internet access. Any ideas at all?
Edit: Nevermind, I had the custom prop set to post fs data when it was supposed to be set at boot stage (default). My hotspot is working now. Thank you all.

wifi tethering - Android 10 w/ root and Magisk

I successfully rooted after the latest upgrade for Android 10 using the Guide on this forum, https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-xl/how-to/guide-pixel-xl-android-10-0-q-t3964112.. Previously I could use Build Prop Editor to prevent the carrier check but after going to Android 10 the Build Prop editor cannot complete the operation. The build prop app does have SuperUser access.
I found that this method may not be an option in Android 10 but curious if anyone has found another way around it. I have a legacy unlimited plan with Verizon and I'd like to continue sharing the hotspot as needed.
I also tried using a VPN, then build prop but that didn't work either.
Thanks in advance for the help!
Pixel XL rooted w/ Magisk
build QP1A.191005.007.A3
this is how it's done Android 10
First flash tether enabler 15 zip threw magisk
Then use termux terminal emulator app
Su enter
Settings put global Tether_dun_required 0 then exit app
Then get VPN hotspot app for root play store
https://drive.google.com/file/d/11o5k9rl0wRe745u2fioL4FF0vV_6NIxe/view?usp=drivesdk
Magisk zip
Now unlimited tethering with no throttling and carrier think phone data being used
Appreciate the help, will start working on it today. I may have some additional questions as I go through the steps. Thanks again!
worked perfectly, thanks!
just for curiosity, is this the new way I'll need to re-activate wifi tethering on android 10 and later? and why doesn't the build prop editor work anymore?
This zip bypass dun in apn setting so harder to spot and in next update he will add ttl as well.
Tethering enabler xda where found zip
Steps I showed you
I figured that out myself
Carrier won't even know your using hotspot and speeds are same as if using phone not hotspot bull****
I can watch or game with little or no buffering

I tried this method and I am getting throttled at 0.22mbps. Also in the VPN Hotspot app I can only use "Temporary hotspot" because "Wfi hotspot" doesn't work at all. I get error: "connectivity service neither user 10331 nor current process has android.permission TETHER_PRIVILEGED".
Rooted Moto G Power running Android 10.
I'm not as knowledgeable as you guys. Could you please expound on the directions provided by "petiolarissean"?
I've installed the tethering enabler zip using magisk. I've downloaded termux and vpn hotspot for root. What next?
I've relied on xda for years to keep our phones rooted and running smoothly.
Thanks for all you do!

Question Problem in ad blocking via host file in xiaomi pad 5

I am using xiaomi pad 5 (miui 13.1.3) for 3 months. Recently I have unlocked my bootloader and rooted my phone. After that I installed lucky patcher and tried to block ads(blocking all ads was the main purpose for rooting my device. ) But still ads were showing. Then I manually tried to replace “hosts” file inside the “system/etc” folder. But, root explorer said “can not replace hosts file”. It seems that original hosts file is uneditable. Can anyone help me to replace the original hosts file with custom one?

I would recommend AdAway it's easy to use.

Thanks brother. I have already tried adway. But, it also didn't work. It seems, the “system” folder is unmodifiable.

Stick a Pihole on your router - it'll take out the ads before they reach your devices without having to root, at home at least
It seems like Luck Patch getting less effective recently it's didn't work for me at all. Adaway is the best tool and if it's didn't work. It's gonna be hard to solve. I suggest maybe find a mod version of the apps

Sorry for delay, no, AdAway works perfectly.
You have to go to the Settings from Magisk, tap on Systemless host, then reboot, now open AdAway, and follow the on-screen instructions.
About the system, in newer Android versions, the system remains just RO (read-only), this is the reason, although you can edit the host file, you can't put it back.

Thanks from deepest part of my heart, dear. It works like charm. Thanks . But, can u tell me, is there any way to convert the system from read only to writeable?

Yes, and not. Unfortunately, there is not a universal solution for this Google based underlined method.
Most users rely on the need to use this, based on modules from Magisk, to make one thing here, and one thing there, I mean, a specific job in regard to that, and not, letting the system completely accessible to RW.
This script works for some device while it doesn't for others, so you could try on, https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...-superrw-featuring-makerw-read-write.4247311/ This method worked for my last Redmi Note 10, but not for my current RN11 though.
And also, you could take a read on this method, https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/mount-system-read-write.4270857/

Thanks brother. After applying systemless host in magisk I was able to replace hosts file via adaway, but still some ads were showing in adm. After applying your zip file there is no ads, at least for now. Thanks dear.

Then tell me, this can work apart from AdAway, no? I mean, once a new release is out, you can just flash it and it's done, no need to install and set it up AdAway, and no need to enable systemless host, I'm right?

Just flash it with magisk, no need adaway app or any setting in magisk.
