Free Tethering Unlocker
Unlock your tethering possibilities!
With this simple app you can, finally, use your Mobile Data plan, to surf with your notebook or any device you want, without having to pay any extra to your network operator!
As you can see here, since Android 4.1.2, Google introduced a new tethering function to "mark" tethering packets, so the operator can bill the user for that traffic separately from the traffic generated locally by the phone. May be useful even with Android 2.3+, when tethering problems occurs.
This app makes a simple trick to the routing table, to permit tethering traffic to proceed to the mobile network without any modification :victory:
PLUS, on the premium version, there is an on boot unlock function that will patch the routing table at every reboot, automatically. This way you can forget about the existence of this app and freely enable tethering when you need.
Features:
Automatic interfaces detection
Boot time patching (Premium only)
Wi-Fi and USB tethering mode supported
Tested operators:
The application works properly on all Android devices 2.1 +, but was tested on the following devices:
Vodafone IT
Changelog:
-----1.0.8------
Fixed interface detection bug, multiple interfaces support (LTE Galaxy S4)
New configurations added: T-Mobile
Translations fixed.
Known Issues:
If you use "superuser" on some ROMs you cannot get root privileges. To solve this, download "SuperSU".
Very Important:
In the app menu, there is a link to report your current operator configuration, this way if your actual configuration is not supported (the application wont work) I can see what is happening and can fix the app for your configuration.
This help me a lot, so, please, do it if the app don't work for you. Thanks.
Download:

Thank you sir..
Noob Attack!
Uhm, sir, noob question from a noob person...
Does this app ,of yours, works like those WiFi Tethering apps like Barnacle WiFi / OpenGarden...?
And if it so, how does this differ from those apps?
And if it isn't so, does my phone required to have WiFi Tethering and Hotspot support to use this?
This app only patches original mobile WiFi hotspot (tethering) Android application.
This way you can use what tethering application included in Android distribution, there is no need of external applications like opengarden.
BTW I think, but not assure, that my app will unlock third party tethering application too, so you can use whatever tethering application you want and test if with my patch the tethering starts working.
If you do that, please, report the result here, so I can add compatibility.
Thanks.

This is exactly what we need thanks for your contribution.
Brilliant!
Does it also spoofs my mac address?
Enviado desde mi MB860 usando Tapatalk 2
Android stock mobile WiFi hotspot uses NAT, so...yes, your operator sees only your phone's MAC address.

By the way, can you guys who successfully use this app tell me which is your phone model and your operator, to compile a compatibility list, for all users?
Thanks!
Im using SGH-T999. By the way how do we know if the app is actually working?

This is simple, you have only to unlock tethering with this app, then try to surf with your PC, through the mobile WiFi network created by the phone. If you can see something and you have not paid anything for that....it works.
I suggest to call your operator and ask for disabling the tethering profile. This way (the one I've done) if you can surf the web from your PC, you're sure not to pay. In case the app is not working gor you, and you're using the standard tethering APN (and your operator will charge for that), the connection will be interrupted and you will be not charged for anything.
Let me know, bye!
BTW, today I'll publish an update with new configuration. Stay tuned!

Worked first time!
PHONE: INFOCUS M512 (Foxconn)
OS: 4.4.2 (root), MIUI
OPERATOR: FIDO/ROGERS (Canada)
4G/LTE
I had NO working tether on this phone since purchase 2 weeks ago (tether was working on retired Apple 3GS - same 1 GB data plan). I probably could have gotten it working on the new Android with a call to FIDO tech support, but I remember when i bought the new SIM card, the sales guy at the mall kiosk warned me that FIDO calculates their tethering data a "little differently" than phone data, and that I might notice higher-than-expected usage totals on my statement...
I think not.
Hello!!
Nice to see that you like my work, as soon as possible I want to create a compatibility document, to be published here and in Google Play Store, so you guys can directly know whether this hack will work for you or not.
I'm currently working on an update but my job does not leave me much time so...might take a while to be ready, I'm sorry.
Bye and merry Christmas!

Hi!
I'm currently working on a brand new application, with Material Design graphics.
Also the engine is updated, hopefully supporting more unlocking techniques.
Unfortunately my job does not help me in this; I've very small amount of time to write this app, therefore I cannot give you an estimation about when I'll be able to release it. Sorry.

Hi Marco & thanks for your app.
I've had it on my phone for a while, and it has been working fine, however due to the ever increasing load on my ram & cpu from all the apps & google service updates, I have had to prevent a bunch of system processes & apps from running.
This has stopped your app from working.
Can you please list the system apps/processes that your tether unlocker app needs access to or need to be running so I can enable just the necessary ones thanks?

Hi,
I have recently developed a privacy protection application for Android.
You can use it to block access for any installed application to the following data separately:
Device ID (IMEI/MEID/ESN)
Subscriber ID (IMSI)
SIM serial (ICCID)
Phone and mailbox number
Incoming call number
Outgoing call number
GPS location
Network location
List of accounts (including your google e-mail address)
Account auth tokens
Contacts
Call logs
Calendar
SMS
MMS
Browser bookmarks and history
System logs
SIM info (operator, country)
Network info (operator, country)
For device ID, phone and mailbox number, SIM serial, subscriber ID and device location it also allows supplying custom or random values.
Unlike others (e.g., Permissions Denied or CM) this does not make applications crash when access to private data is blocked.
The following short video shows some of its functionality.
PDroid does not require ROOT or any Android permission to function, nor does it need any services running in the background. But it does require patching some ROM components, so that it needs to be ported to different devices. Currently it is available for Nexus One, Nexus S, Desire HD (Gingerbread) as well as Magic with CM 6.1 (Froyo).
So I am wondering if I should release it for public use and maybe port to other devices. I will only do so if you would like to use it, since it requires some fine-tuning to be more user-friendly. So please vote if you would like to use PDroid.
I would love to use this app on my galaxy s and tab.
Especially the point to give the apps random or custom information instead of just blocking the access is important.
If you need help testing the app on those mentioned devices just let me know
I hope you get enough positive feedback to port and continue developing this app.
I ll love to have such an app on my Xperia X10 mini pro (cyanogenmod 7)
so basicly it's a LBE replacement? The major disadvantage of that one is being closed-source. Do you plan to open-source yours?
I would like to give this app a shot too with my devices (Nexus S 4G, EVO 3D and Epic Touch 4G). Does not require root, but assume that root is ok? Also seen that you have for Nexus S, but was not sure if that implies to the NS4G as well. Looks promising.
XlAfbk said:

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Kind of. The functionality is similar to that of LBE while I tried to account for its disadvantages, such as not being able to disallow access to some data (e.g., system logs, incoming and outgoing call numbers etc.), requiring root or being unreliable since LBE requires its protection service to be running so that malicious apps still can steal data if they are started before LBE after boot.

Yes, basically any device, for which Android can be directly built from AOSP (and this includes Nexus 4G) is supported right now.

That's a nice list. I'd really like a version for my Motorola Defy.
How hard would it be to reuse the code to make it run like LBE, i.e. make an apk that works on every phone without having to patch ROMs for every type of device?
I too would like to use this app, sounds awesome. If you need any beta testers, I volunteer

Click to collapse
Impossible, since the actual application logic performing the data access control is based on the Android application framework and not the SDK. Plus, doing it the LBE way requires root and will never be 100% reliable. In other words, there is no way of creating a proper solution without patching the ROM.
I would like to have this for t-mobile US Vibrant since we're getting no Gingerbread love from t-mo or Sammy and I'm all flashed out with nothing else to do.

If I can help in any way, any way at all, I'd be very happy to do so.. I'm running CM7.1.0 on my DesireZ @ 1.2ghz...
Thanks a lot!
Looks great. I'd love to get that on my Thunderbolt (CM7) would there be anyway to block permissions like internet and SD card access, I know Cyanogenmod lets you disable them but you have to reset your phone after a change for them to take effect. Also I don't know if it falls into the scope of what this project is intended for but I've seen people ask about making certain apps work on 3G that only work on wifi or the other way around if you could make an app think it was using one or the other for a connection I think that would be very helpful to some folks.
I'd test this on the t-mo Galaxy S2 if you're willing to do it...

Not in near future. Doing that would require modifying the kernel and that, in turn, would make PDroid much less portable.

WARNING: Some features require a rooted device.
SEE THE FAQ IN POST 2 (BELOW) IF YOU HAVE ISSUES
DESCRIPTION:
Download web files much faster by using wifi and mobile data at the same time!
Share or open a link from any program, like the web browser, and download it at speeds up to two times faster than usual.
This is the only tool that can download using wifi and mobile data connection simultaneously*!
*In 2014, two years later, Samsung released the Galaxy S5 phone which incorporates a similar feature called "Download Booster".
IMPORTANT NOTES:
- Using both networks together requires root access.
- Since this program uses mobile data connection, by using it you may incur in additional charges from your network operator.
- To unleash its full potential, this program needs good (and balanced) wifi and mobile reception/bandwidth.
- Using both connections is not supported on all devices / rom combinations.
- Some web servers may provide insufficient functionalities on the requested files.
- Currently only http and https protocols are supported (no ftp or torrent yet)
- The Lite version has a filesize limit of 50 megabytes.
SPECIAL NOTE FOR XDA DEVELOPERS:
This program is free for xda users if downloaded from this thread, but is a paid application on play store. If you want to support the development, buy it from the market and get automatic updates.
USAGE:
Just click on a link or open a remote file: if the file type is recognised by Super Download, it will start getting it.
If this method doesn't work, try click-and-hold on the link, select "share with" and choose Super Download.
Finally, you can copy and paste a url in the "add url" dialog.
There is a thread on Super Download and a youtube video here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc...xy-s5s-download-booster-t2829885/post54435368
PLANNED FEATURES:
- Multiple files together / download queue
- Other ways of speeding up downloads
MARKET LINKS:
- Full version: Super Download Full
- Lite version: Super Download Lite
***** FAQ *****
1 - Q: It doesn't work!
A: Please provide more information and possibly a logcat (main buffer, debug level).
2 - Q: The application doesn't trigger! Is my browser supported?
A: Did you try both methods (read USAGE on post 1)? Some browser do not support the first method (mostrly third party browsers), some do not support the second (only ICS stock browser doesn't, AFAIK). If both methods do not work for you, please post your browser and rom names and versions in this thread, thanks!
3 - Q: It fails and now I can't download the file without unistalling your app! Now what?
A: From SuperDownload, click on the download and select "send to default downloader": the android download app will start to download your file (not available on froyo). Or, some browsers support long-tap on a link and then "download". You can also install an additional download with different features, so android will ask you which one to use at download time.
4 - Q: When using both networks, mobile data stream gets interrupted often!
A: Unfortunately, when using both network, the system enforces periodic disconnects on the mobile interface. There is no way to avoid them, but the app tries to mitigate its effect as much as possible.
5 - Q: How can I download from RapidShare (HotFile, etc.) with this application?
A: Sites like rapidshare do not support multi threaded clients. They don't want you to have more than one active download at a time. So it would defeat the purpose of this application.
It is possible that, with some tweaks specific to the site, and maybe the need of a premium account, it would work. That would need a lot of time to develop, though :-\
6 - Q: Sometimes I see "Dual networks" changing form "enabled" to "suspended", why?
A: From version 0.4, Super Download tries to avoid using both networks together when one of the two is failing too often; this is to avoid slowing down the transfer when in bad mobile reception, for example. If you feel it is suspended too often or when it shouldn't, please report on this thread.
7 - Q: Does it work for downloading [put your favorite big file here]?
A: It should work as long as it's a valid http or https url (no torrent (yet), for example) and the web server doesn't limit multiple connections.
8 - Q: Does it work on a tethered connection?
A: I didn't try myself, but I got some reports that it works. The tethered connection works as if it were wifi, and you can add your mobile speed to it!
9 - Q: Why doesn't it work for downloading from the market/play store?
Q: Why don't you just replace the default android downloader?
A: The default downloader is not a "normal" application, it's a core part of the android system and libraries. Even if it was possible to take its place, it would be a compatibility nightmare, with all the os versions and different carrier/manufacturer customizations that are available.
10 - Q: Why can't you do the same system wide, for all the applications?
A: That would need to modify android internals and probably every application that needs it. Currently Super Download merges the packages from the two connections at the application level and there is no simple way (that I know of) to do it differently.
11 - Q: On my Samsung with original firmware and touchwiz I can't see the download history, even though I'm on later than froyo!
A: That's because samsung has taken their froyo downloader and put it on gb, ics and later, without updating the downloader api. You know, it's easier to make a customized program work on a new version of android rather than re-applying the changes to a newer version of the downloader...
12 - Q: Can you alter the app and allow it to do tethering also? I want to create a wifi network which combines two 3g networks and doubles the speed for the user.
A: I'm sorry but Super Download can't do this. The problem is not just enabling the interfaces (you can get some clues on how to do this on this thread, without the need for SD altogether), but combining the packets from the two channels. As far as I know, this can easily be done only at the application level; what this means is that you would need to modify the programs you are using on the client in order to make it work. An exception would be the use of proxies: most networked applications already support this, so theoretically it's possible. But currently a bit off topic for this project, unless it can grow to a much bigger application than it is now. It is in my todo list for the future, nonetheless
13 - Q: Did you copy/reverse engineer Samsung Download Booster?
A: NO. It's the other way around. My app was out a lot earlier. Super Download is, infact, the first application of its kind.
14 - Q: How's your app different than Download Booster?
A: Samsung's one is integrated into the rom, so it has a more low-level access to the protocol. This enables it to work on, for example, play store downloads, which Super Download can't. Still, none of the two can work on all the network traffic: they are both limited to the HTTP protocol and supported applications.
Does it work for you guys?
Is it actually faster than wifi only?
Please let me know

So it looks like this is a replacement for the "Downloads" app that is already on the phone. It handles the download well, though I can't see much of a difference downloading as the server I am downloading from is the limiting factor, not my wifi. Here are some observations:
We should test this on starbucks or other limited wifi
The app did not ask for root privileges
It does not seem to route all traffic through the dual mode, only some file downloads. Am I missing something there?
All in all though, it is a cool experiment, I look forward to do some more testing with it.
I really don't think this makes a difference.

Thanks for your testing.
There are many factors affecting performance.
One is what you already said that often the bottleneck is the server itself, not the local network.
Add to this the fact that, when dual mode is disabled, the thread which should download using mobile is routed thru wifi, and you may get the file faster by using wifi only.
Moreover, android automatically puts the mobile connection down after some time when wifi is in use, leading to timeouts and needs to wait for reconnection.
All this can be mitigated, fixed etc. Just let me tweak it further and please continue reporting! More feedback, more fixes
Here is the new version:
0.2
- aggressive threading option added, should greatly improve speed on some servers
- network and layout tweaks
- timing display
- fixed FC when no wifi and both networks enabled
I'm getting terrific performance improvements with aggressive threading and some "lazy" servers!
So please have a look at this new version and let me know

Hi Florian,
Really like your app - it has a particular attraction to owners of the Nexus 4 (with it's somewhat limited storage capacity)
I've just posted about it over at modaco though unfortunately I can't post the link here due to XDA's posting restrictions.
Hopefully this will spark a bit more (much deserved) interest

If your (sending) device doesn't allow tethering it won't work. If it does, then this is likely Pilot Error...

As mentioned in the app description on Google Play, the app does not work on Motorola's Razr devices. Sorry for that. It seems Motorola have a major bug somewhere in their WiFiManager implementation.
Excellent app
Works fine on Samsung Galaxy SL (GT-I9003) running stock 2.3.6 GB. Getting speeds in excess of 1600 kbyte/s.
Requests to dev:
1. Show file size, speed, estimated time remaining during transfer.
2. Include a "cancel" button.
3. Enable batch transfers (queuing multiple file transfers).
4. Include a notification in the pull down menu with details of the transfer.
5. Consider implementing it like Bluetooth file transfer. The app must be installed on both devices. Pair/authenticate the devices, then select the file and the receiver device. Transfer will start immediately. The app running in background in the receiver device will detect the incoming file(s) and transfer them, without user intervention. Of course, include an option to "ask always". For non-Android devices, there's web based transfer/QR code.
Thanks a lot!

You can already send multiple files:
Just select multiple files in your file explorer before sending them.

I'm planning to include a receiving part right within the app, where you would only have to enter Name and PW of the sender once and can receive with one click later.
Re: [App] Fast File Transfer - The WiFi Direct For The Rest Of Us
I think you should not enable it like Bluetooth because I can send files to my laptop
Having app installed on both devices is not possible on laptop

Developing an app that allows transfers to any WiFi device was one of my original goals, so of course I will always keep a way to receive without any special app. The receiving part I mentioned would just connect to the WiFi for you and open the web browser automatically.
BTW, some One V users report that the app does not work for them. Does it work on your One V? If so, which ROM are you running?
AW: [App] Fast File Transfer - The WiFi Direct For The Rest Of Us
Just discovered your app and have to say it's brilliant. I've always been searching for an app allowing me to send files via wifi between to devices using the Hotspot functionality. You just made my day the only thing that could improve your app is a holo design and the already mentioned nfc feature

UPDATE
Development of this app will continue here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-spectrum-tv-aka-twc-tv-t3847520
Thanks for everyone who kept this project going!
Hello here you will find the most recent TWC TV App from the android market... except it has ALL restrictions removed, NO ADB checks, NO proxy checks, NO HDMI checks, NO ROOT checks, and best of all, a method to watch ALL the channels while you're away from home, not just SOME of the channels TWC let's you watch; this can be viewed over 3g/4g/wifi... hell even 1x lol.
NOW the part I like... and maybe the reason why the root check was implemented by TWC.... you can actually WATCH live TV on any wifi, 3g/4G network away from your home! all you need is a few tools and you're on your way.... if this is of no interest to you then just scroll down to the download link
To watch outside of the home network:
Install a proxy server on a machine inside your network (a computer that can play live tv from twctv.com successfully)
I use wingate FREE edition (http://wingate.com)
Make sure you configure your router to forward traffic on that port to your machine
as a side note, make sure you assign a static IP on your local machine so your router doesn't get confused
also make sure you go to whatsmyip.org and get your external IP address (as you'll need this for the android side)
Install an app from the android market called "Auto Proxy (ROOT)"
Configure Auto Proxy to connect to your machine... here you will enter the IP you got earlier from your home machine and the port you chose when you configured wingate...
Now activate AutoProxy and all traffic will be routed through your home computer (all apps, etc...) meaning when you use the timewarner app it will think you're inside your home network!!
Make sure you turn it off once you're done watching TV, otherwise you will be consuming all of your upload bandwidth and also slow down your speeds since it has to go through the proxy...
Profit!!
Some Notes:
This app should work on any phone with gingerbread and up. (Tested myself)
Feel free to donate It took me a while to learn how to do this and it took alot endless nights
I think i should also point out that I didn't use anyone else's code to do this; I'm a lone developer and just like the challenge
I am also working on a workaround to the proxy thing... a way to watch Live TV on your cellular network alone... no proxy required (I make no promises but i'm looking into it and hopefully I'll come up with something)
I'll also try to release a new version if updates are released... try and keep everything current
Questions? need a more detailed guide or anything else? just ask! I'm here to help ... (but see post #2 first)
The 3.21.14 app would not be possible without GreenNasty... THANKS!

[Questions/Issues?]
See post #2 and reply if you question is not addressed.
Thanks to those that made decompiling/recompiling easy!!
Don't forget to hit that thanks button if this app works for you!
donations are also appreciated... modifying something without the source code is tough... and a cup of coffee can go a long way when coding thanks for your support!
Bug List
APP Version 3.2#44: Some users report that HD doesn't work as well with the new app. Time Warner did alot of changes due to the move to streaming away from home, that means that they definetely could have messed something up.... if HD is not working properly for you and want to try the previous version (2.6#36) feel free to download it here: http://www.mediafire.com/?s3evtfhdedy3061
If you wish to decompile the app yourself, i have included comments in most of the important parts of the code that i modified... i will admin, they are HARD to understand and modify, but if you're looking to do it yourself in the future, I've helped you out
Issues/Troubleshooting
If you have tried this app and it does not work for you then i need the following information:
are you using the proxy instructions I mentioned or using the app using your home network?
MAKE SURE your device is rooted
if you are then please test it on your home network first and make sure it works (whithout ANY proxy, etc...)... if it does then let me know what issues you get when you use wingate and Auto Proxy....
if it does work on your home network but not with the proxy, then please tell me detailed instructions on how you set it up or if you need a guide on how to do so
do you have internet service through time Warner?
what device are you using?
what rom and kernel are you using, and what versions? (if you don't what kernel then just tell me which rom and version and i'll figure it out)
Are you rooted? With Super SU or just SuperUser?
All of the above checked? then i will need a logcat while the app is running Feel free to pm me the logcat ONLY after you have posted what i've requested and I'll let you know to send me a logcat... i don't want to receive random logcats and will ignore them if i haven't seen your information in this thread first!
Logcats can be taken via: adb shell logcat
OR adb shell and then type logcat, you can use the -f parameter to save it to a file rather than copying it from your command prompt to a file...
If there is anything else you think i should know, then please post that as well.... any little bit of information WILL help, trust me
I am committed to help.... but please help me by following the above instructions to make both our lives easier!
Thanks!

I really do not understand why they care if rooted / debugging is turned on?
I mean its at least a little understandable if one has an unlocked
bootloader and running on a non-standard rom.

There is competing theories on why they care... one of the reason i can think of (which i said in the OP) is that you can use a root app to enable traffic tunneling through a proxy (thus circumventing their "home network") restriction
Is this the phone version of the app?? Just wondering because I'm trying to get it to work on my HP Touchpad with CM10 and the signed versions I have found for the tablet are around 5mb and yours its just under 2.

Not sure why you version is so much smaller but it works perfectly on my tablet. I have been searching high and low for a fix and this was it. I can't thank you enough!!!

I managed to poke around in the code myself, dont know what the hell im doing, but thought i would give it a go.

I heard TWC app have troubles with some checkings with some ROMS maybe removing the checking when that message is shown. Look I tested on iPad, iPod, iPhone and. Samsung Galaxy Tab Android and works perfect but specific the problem is on Amazon Kindle 8.9 with iOs 8.1.4 and others in every channel no some channel is every channel the message and the message appears in no more than 30 seconds, in other words you only have around 30 seconds of video in any channel and the message is shown and other people have the same issues. If you have the code and you can check the message when is shown and remove the condition or if you have the source maybe we can see when the message is shown I can see to have an idea. If you look inside other forums in this webpage there are other people with dame problem in other devices.
Thank you

Can you tell me what specific message comes up? there's different messages that come up for different scenarios, if it's only "this channel is currently unavailable at this time" then i need to know specifics... what device, what android version, rooted or not.... a logcat of the app running would also be nice... I also don't understand what you mean by "iOS 8.1.4", afaik iOS is only on apple devices ... this fix is only applicable to android devices.
Let me know if it's happening to you and let me know the specifics i mentioned and i'll see what i can do about it.

My Airtel DTH subscription just ran out, and I have no intentions of renewing it (do most of my TV watching on the phone via JioTV). Unfortunately, without an active subscription the Airtel Internet TV box locks you out of not just the DTH part, but also the Internet part -- you cannot use it as a simple Android TV device.
So have been searching for ways to root the device and/ or bypass the subscription check. Any ideas? Hoping there is a way to wipe out Airtel customised OS and install a vanilla version of Android TV. Or even an Oreo port if that is possible.

Almost all devices ship with either of the above two categories of firmware, though things don’t end there. Independent developers who like to customize their devices beyond the standard options provided often tend to release the fruits of their labor for the rest to enjoy, in form of custom ROMs. The more open the platform, the more independent development it attracts, a good example of which is the independent custom ROM development for Android.
In case of proprietary firmware such as iOS and Windows Phone 7, there is often little or no room for customization of the operating system itself but regardless of that, developers still tend to release custom ROMs bundled with useful tools and hacks applied to provide functionality beyond the stock features.
someone pls post airtel internet tv apk
airtel smart box is just a box without subscription
The airtel internet tv is good till it has a active subscription. But once it's over its a stupid box which can't be used any where so any idea to make it work independently. Can we change its os so it becomes totally a smart box and not a setop box anymore as I don't have any intention to renew my subscription ever. So atleast the box will be useful for me.

i need this too. Now it is upgraded as Airtel XStream if someone can take it up i can install it in my android box
Any response on this? I recently got one upgraded as the old internet tv box went bad and stopped working... Would love to be able to remove subscription check on this new xstream box
@anshul123
I got this trick from a @Dhairy
Not very convenient but I have a way to enjoy apps without recharging DTH, Go to settings ---> apps ---> Airtel Xstream ---> Force Stop
Now, press back button and move back to apps list -----> Look for play store and open from the settings, to your surprise play store will open.
Now, search and install ATV Launcher (Or any launcher of your choice) -----> Open ATV Launcher from app store
Voila you can see all apps there and they would open normally.
Actually the check is done by their Launcher so if we could root and delete that launcher and install android tv home ( Google launcher for android Tv), then theoretically that would bypass the subscription check also.
Unfortunately, you have to force stop Airtel Xstream every time till then. Also I would recommend not to upgrade your box as they may fix this vulnerability and use some other method to check for subscription. Till then enjoy!
I have Airtal Xstream Box and it works perfect on it. However it would be great if someone can come up with a custom ROM for Airtel Xstream Box.
