UPDATE: 9/1/2011 EH17 Hotspot Hack
UPDATE: 8/17/11 - Redownload EH06HotspotHack.zip if you downloaded it before 11:50AM on 8/17/11 pacific time, as I have reverted back to the last bit of hacked code for framework.jar. The expanded code I tried to allow it to use wasn't playing along nicely.
UPDATE: 8/16/11 - EH06 version complete. Here's a message to sprint/samsung - why you adding BS code to the functions I'm modifying? Tsk tsk.
To all users - I will not be supporting _ANY_ EG22 rom stuff anymore, as nearly all of the roms are deodexed incorrectly (too old of baksmali version) and have plenty bugs. Leaving the files attached for any lone EG22 users.
EH06+ only from now on.
Enjoy the tethering users!

EH17HotspotHack.zip = DEODEXED EH17 ONLY
EH06HotspotHack.zip = DEODEXED EH06 ONLY
EG22HotspotHack.zip = DEODEXED EG22 ONLY
SRF1.2HotSpotHack.zip = SRF 1.2 ONLY (EC05 _MIGHT_ WORK, TEST!!)
BonsaiB14HotspotHack.zip = BONSAI B14 ONLY
UrbRegen111HotspotHack = Urban Regeneration 1.1.1 ONLY
Report bugs in the thread. Thanks
NOTE: REQUIRES DEODEXED ROM
NOTE2: This hack renames "Sprint Hotspot" to "Wireless Hotspot"! If it's not renamed - it didn't install correctly! 3 finger recovery boot and try installing again!! (CWM issue, bug them to fix it)
NOTE3: Files modified are /system/app/Settings.apk & /system/framework/framework.jar & /system/framework/services.jar
NOTE4: epichackedhotspot.zip attached is legacy for use on EF02 deodexed. I will not be making a 4G version for EF02 - use EG22 from now on seeing as it's better in nearly all ways.
NOTE5: Yes, I know the installer for my zips all say for EG22. The files in the zip are correct for the version you downloaded, though.
Special thanks to frogor for being a broskito
Thanks to chris41g for packaging up the zips and rounding testers (flimsy you whiner here you go ) up for me
Thanks to dodgejcr for figuring the stupid compression bug out
very nice cant wait to try
Awesome, downloading now.
And, no body else seems to have much trouble making flashable .zips? I'm not taking a crack at you, just maybe PM one of the guys around here.

Apparently it's due to the fact winrar/windows zip cannot create a zip CWM will recognize, even when implicitly told to not compress stuff.
About to upload a .zip with a modified Settings.apk and the framework.jar. This gets rid of the "Sprint Hotspot" name and changes it to "Wireless Hotspot."
Looks cleaner to me.
Wow this thread should take off here very shortly. Congrats and thanks.

So does this enable the sprint hotspot without them knowing it?
Nice, I'll have to check it out. I've been using WiFi Tether which enables Sprint Hotspot so I have something to compare it to.

I actually am someone who still pays for Hotspot because WifiTether hasn't been as good. I hope this finally does it.

Considering there's only so much that can be done to the gingerbread kernel without source, I would think all of them work.

Doesn't work on bonsai. Zip flash didn't even change the name of the app. I didn't try USB. About to flash stock deodexed and try from there.

+1 on that one. I am using Bonsai 5.0.0.13B.
Is there a way to make this work for stock (not deodexed)? Or is there an easy way to deodex? Or should I just look for a nearly stock deosexed rom and restore data?

Wireless Tether is an issue, WiFi Tether has been working fine for since it came out(3.0-pre14), have used it on Froyo and Gingerbread.
No joy with this hack, starts fine but won't allow my laptop to connect. Good news is that it doesn't interfere with WiFi Tether functionality so I can keep messing around with it to see what I can do with it.

WifiTether 3 pre 14 has been outstanding for me too. I almost cancelled Hotspot because its really good. The whole turning off 4G first thing gets to me though.

Yeah, they need to get that worked out. All you have to do is toggle Wireless Tether (the green one) on and off and you'll be able to restart Wifi Tether (yellow) without rebooting your phone.

What errors are you seeing in logcat?
What exactly is happening?
The files in this update zip _CAME_ from Chris41g's EF02 plus, which I am running right now with these hacks, so there's no reason they shouldn't work for you..
Also, this more than likely will ONLY work with Chris41g's EF02 stuff, especially if there are modifications in his Settings.apk that are particular to his ROM.
Let me know what you come across and I'll see what I can do. If it turns out it's because of my Settings.apk modification I can always remove that/put it in a separate zip for those who want "sprint hotspot" renamed.
Thanks!
(For those too anxious to wait for another zip - install it and restore your ROM's custom Settings.apk. Make sure you're only applying this to EF02! This stuff will SURELY only run on EF02 based ROMS! I am able to modify other frameworks for 2.2 etc but I need a copy of the framework.jar from the particular build/rom you use so I can perform the modification.)

The main thing that bugs me about Wireless Tether is a) it doesn't interact with our device correctly (look up the ANDROID_TETHER intents and WIFI_AP intents and see what I'm saying) and b) whenever you stop it (on ef02, anyway) it reboots the phone. This was with the latest beta.
The built in stuff is made by samsung for the phone, and communicates with the rest of the OS using certain intents that are very useful. It also works very well in my day or so of testing. (Uninstalled android wireless tether right away )

Yes, if I use my paid Hotspot, I have to wipe cache and Dalvik before I use WifiTether otherwise I have issues.

Hey so recently I deleted my wifi calling app and decided that I want it back. I have a titanium backup of it but it won't install it. I searched for the kineto apk and installed that and the app opens but quickly closes after a few seconds.
Does it matter which rom I have? If so I am currently using xboarders tweaked 2.3.3 rom
Thanks

It should be working since that rom had that in it to begin with. you might want to try to fix permissions and wipe cache. If that doesn't work I believe you could just re-flash the rom right over yours. that should re-install the wifi calling.

There are 2 versions: One for stock deodexed, and one for No CIQ Roms.
You can flash the No CIQ if you have a stock deodexed ROM. It contains the whole NoCIQ mod, so you will get that too.
Both of these also include a fix to remove the overscroll effect from spamming the logcat too
Just download and flash in CWM

Stock Deodexed Version
NoCIQ Version

Weird, the Stock Deodexed Version threw me into a boot loop.
I am running a Deodexed Rom.. ehh..
But, i installed the NoCIQ Version, works like a charm and fixed the bootloop, lol
Thank you awesome work!
Forgot to ask!
Dose this work for 4G as well??
Thanks in advance!
Been waiting for this hack. Does not take, keeps it Sprint Hotspot . Running ACS ICS v3.5 EI22. Tried NoCIQ version.
EDIT: Was reading in the OP about a CWRecovery bug and may need to flash. Haven't tried it yet but it came up wireless hotspot and feel pretty sure about it. I didn't have this problem having to reflash it before, but now I am using ACS Recovery. Thank you so much for getting right on top of this cause it a hack I use a lot. It works so much better than another app for wireless tethering.

flashed this after running flashing latest era 3.3 ROM with v6 superscript and superfreeze script, all of a sudden i was stuck in weird bootloop, not even a loop it froze after loading the boot screen and screen just stayed black with the capacitive buttons staying lit. Anyone else get this? FYI i installed the noCIQ zip

Unless someone has made a very recent breakthrough, limitations of the CWM flash procedure prevent the zip from doing the modifications necessary (unpacking an apk) to modify the existing files, so a complete overwrite (replacement) is the only option. Without the breakthrough mentioned above, this will always be the case

was a different zip causing my problem.
Thought it was my rom but it seems after flashing this (mod works btw) my system updates under setting causes fc if I try to even go into it. Meaning I can't go in to update profile or prl anymore.

Do we need to keep the DialerTabActivity.apk?
The dialer I am currently using matches the rest of my theme, so I'd like to delete the DialerTabActivity.apk from the zip file before flashing with CWM. Will removing it break the functionality of the hotspot hack?
EDIT:
Installed the zip file with the DialerTabActivity.apk removed and seems to have installed correctly.

You are missing some system files like sprintandroidextension.apk and sprint_app_updater.apk. I think there is another devicemanagement.apk maybe.

Just wanted to say thanks! I haven't had to use this feature till now. My roadrunner internet service is down so I put this into action and it works beautifully. It's just as fast as roadrunner turbo (maybe a itty bitty smidge slower ) and it's a solid connection. Calling up roadrunner tomorrow to tell them to kick rocks. I'm so thrilled about this. Having that extra $30 a month from not having to pay for internet service is really gonna help me out. I am so very thankful for this and the fact that it's not illegal to do this makes it even better. All you devs ROCK!!!! Thanks!
Actually hotspot is a paid service of Sprint's. So technically by using a hack to bypass payment it is theft of services which is illegal.

Flashed NOIQ version, soft bootloop. Running Marcusant's Revival v1. Removed DialerTabActivity.apk, flashed again. Still bootloop. Going to reflash rom without wiping, but any ideas meanwhile?

Yeah but it's broken. Wifi tether works but stock hotspot seems to run better overall. If it helps the noiq zip did rename it.
Back to where I was with broken hotspot but working everything else
ACTUALLY now hotspot works. Didn't before, after these shenanigans it does.
Greetings members,
For all you that are having trouble with the WIFI Tethering app from Negalite WONDE Rom. I flashed this apk and resolved my problem, also works on TriForce Rom :laugh:

It says that it started with errors and doesn't show the download and upload quantities but, my pc recognize it, as a matter of fact, I'm using it right now. I hope you can see the speed test prove here in Puerto Rico.
I'm on latest version of negalites rom and use wifi tether ap with no problems. It's in the playstore but you need root.

Can you go into app manager and force close the app, then clear the apps cache. Then go back out and start it up like normal?
Or uninstall and re-install?

If its a absolute "must" that you have this player, try contacting the developer. But with so many music apps out there, I am having a hard time understanding why this is that "must have" app. I was like that with Doubletwist, but I started having some issues on this different device, so I switched. No biggie.
