[Guide] Enable Tethering/Hotspot - Samsung S4 AT&T I337 (4.3 & 4.2.2) - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 General

Here are easy steps to enable tethering/hotspot on your Samsung Galaxy S4 AT&T I337.
When I was on 4.2.2 Xposed MODs that enable tethering worked fine. However, they don't work on 4.3, or at least that what I experienced.
***** You have to be ROOTED, otherwise, you will not be able to rename system files. ********
Here are very easy steps to follow. Works perfectly!
1. Go to Settings --> More --> Tab on Application Manager
2. Go to All tab (By scrolling Vertically)
3. Find AT&T Hot Spots and click it
4. When App info opens, click Turn off
Now AT&T Hotspot is turned off (The above steps just to ensure that AT&T hotspot is off
"If you don't find AT&T Hot Spots, then it means you dont have the app. That is good. Follow the below steps"
5. Use whatever app that allows you to rename system files such as ES Explorer or Script Manager ( Prefer Script Manager as ES doesn't give root permission on 4.3, until now)
6. Download the attached file and save to your phone. Know exactly where you saved it, so you can use it later on. ( I would have given credit to the person who ported the file, but i don't know to whom it belongs to. So, Thank you XXX!)
5. Browse to System/app and rename TetheringProvision.apk and TetheringProvision.odex . Rename them to any name that you want, or just change apk and odex to bak (This way, you can rename them back in case the steps did not work for you)
6. After you finish replacing the files, go to your folder where you saved the attached file and copy it to system/app
7. Reboot your phone.
As easy as that! Attached is a proof picture
Now go to your phone and enable Tethering. If a message popped up saying "There is a temporary network problem...", or any other error messages, such as call 611, don't worry, Tethering WILL BE ENABLED. Just click OK. within 5 seconds, you will see the lovely hotspot icon at the status bar :laugh:
Enjoy it
While this is a very safe and easy steps, however, as it goes with all MODs and system changes, i claim no responsibility if your phone is bricked or other apps started to act funny. ​
Good luck

Does this also enable bluetooth tethering that we have lost all together. Like an idiot I am already paying at&t for tethering so don't need this unless it enables bluetooth so as to use with my gear. Thanks btw and excellent work.

I have never used it as it's slow, that is why they started to offer the tethering over Wi-Fi. but it looks like it is working as showing on the attachment. Did not try it though

Do you need to be rooted to do this?

Yes. You cannot rename system files without being rooted

If you renamed both files and copied the new one, you shouldn't at least see the call 611 message!

Hi guys, i am pretty new to all of this. I just rooted my phone last night. I installed Titanium Backup after the root. I am unable rename the two tethering provision files. Any advice? Using ES File Explorer, it always says "task is failed". Any advice? Thanks- Jeff

I'm totally stock as well, and it came back pretty quickly. It may get re-activated if you use an app or such, but it definitely came back for me...
Oh well... after about 2 hours it came back... and now pops back on in seconds when I stop it
I guess no way to stop this with out root?

FACT: You can not disable it being on stock. To remove it you would need to root and flash a custom rom with it removed. Just letting you all know. Check out the skyrocketeer rom in dev section, its awesome
Also, for the people that are scared to root because of voiding warranty, there are two easy solutions.
1. Just unroot it, flash a stock rom or something.
2. Brick your phone by some means and if your rooted but it doesnt power on, they can not tell you rooted it. Just tell them you woke up and it was like that or something..

I have this same problem, but it happened to me after I had lost my IMEI and then manually injected it myself. I've ready tried reprovisioning about 3 times, but to no avail. Idk if our problem is caused by the same thing or not, but it is extremely bothersome, isn't it? I wish some genius could help us

I didn't do anything with the IMEI except back it up using the terminal emulator and the "reboot nvbackup" command. Not even sure if it did anything or not. How do you reprovision the phone? What does that even [claim to] do? A google search shows a lot of people complaining about this. I hope someone comes along and helps too.

If you reprovision, it will wipe all your data and such. Idk if you wanna try it. I only tried it because someone suggested it, but it was pointless. So, if you were gonna try that, you would want to nandroid backup first. The way to reprovision if you're interested is dial *2767*3855# that'll do the trick for you. I hope someone comes along to help as well. After a while some fix usually comes around. Just gotta be patient sometimes

Interesting. I wonder what the reprovisioning actually does. I didn't flash CWM yet since I'm running the stock bootloader, and it is locked. I heard that unlocking the bootloader can cause trouble if an OTA update changes things on it.

I would suggest that you just download ROM Manager from the app store, open it up, and at the very top it will say flash clockwork mod recovery. Hit that and it should be a done deal. Let me know if you have any problems

Thanks. That worked, and I now have CWM installed. I also did a backup to internal SD. Is the SGS3 like the Galaxy Nexus? (Meaning that even rooted, the stock OS will overwrite CWM with the default bootloader)

About data/signal issue, that's not your IMEI. It more than likely is your sim card. I had to get 2 replacements from Verizon due to a weak signal. Another simple thing to try is to be sure data roaming is ON in the settings menu, and restart. That is known to work. Rooting prob did not cause this to happen, the S3 has signal issues to begin with. Do not start running scripts to attempt to fix without going through the verizon fixes first. Stay on stock rom, hide your root apps and bring in to get sim card. They won't check for root.
Plan B is to call *611 and speak to someone, they can push a signal code through to fix. Don't say your rooted!

Oh but we shall see what happens when I change towers. To compare, and diagnose this issue, how is your phone setup. Mine is as follows:
Purchased at: Small business authorized reseller
Contract: On contract
Purchase date: 9/5/12 (opened a new account, not adding a line)
OS/ROM: Stock 4.0.4
Rooted: Yes
Bootloader: Locked (had it unlocked temporarily to see if I could do it, but I relocked it to diagnose the data issue)
Recovery: CWM
ICS Encryption: Not turned on (I don't think I can use it now that I have CWM installed anyway)
Apps that run at boot: Call Recorder by Skvalex
Root apps installed: SuperUser (duh), Rom Manager, CallRecorder, Terminal Emulator (used it to execute "reboot nvbackup" as a supposed IMEI backup method)

So far all I've done is "reboot nvbackup" to supposedly backup my IMEI, but I have no idea if it did anything. I'll double check data roaming, but I don't want to rack up a roaming bill. Also I don't have to worry about my store finding out if I root. The sales guy helped me root it before I even paid for it.
The guy I dealt with helped with root questions for me too at actually vzw store... Funny! Sim should do the trick. And yes, that script you ran backed your IMEI correctly, so it's not that. Data roaming is to see if it improves issue, if it does, your having network issues that are not phone related. There is no reason to keep that option on unless your lost in the woods and need data!

Toss it my way. Correct none of the unlock apps will work for the I727, I've tried many. Your IMEI is still in the database, It is just AT&T not wanting to give it to you. Your best bet would be to use one of the MANY online sources. There are several that offer unlocking for under $10.00 others that offer for around $30.oo ish. Find one in your budget that will work for your time constraints and go with them.
As far as busy box, you have a few options from the market that will quickly and easily install it for you.

It is part of the VZW modifications. You must have root to remove it.
Navigate to "/system/csc/" and rename "customer.xml" to "customer.bak".
Restart your phone. The Lock icon and "verizon wireless" text will be gone from your lockscreen, and you will also have the bubble notifications back.

I performed this trick, and the lock icons were removed. However, I also lost 4g when this was done. Is that normal? I restored customer.xml and got 4g back immediately...

No thats not normal, never heard of anyone having this issue. As for help dialog did you uncheck it in settings>lock screen?

FYI, not only did I lose 4g, but I also would not connect to that tower at all. I was stuck on 3g with 1-2 bars. Restoring it got me back to 4g with 4-5 bars.

It is part of the VZW modifications. You must have root to remove it.
Navigate to "/system/csc/" and rename "customer.xml" to "customer.bak".
Restart your phone. The Lock icon and "verizon wireless" text will be gone from your lockscreen, and you will also have the bubble notifications back.

You may need to reroot of you actually don't have root access. Do other apps work

verizon s3 metropcs mms fix

this is to fix mms messaging on metropcs flashed verizon galaxy s3. place zip on sdcard, reboot into recovery and flash the zip then reboot. once phone boots up go to settings, more settings, mobile networks, access point names. you will see lte-verizon internet apn click on it to activate apn then reboot. once booted back up send yourself a mms message, it may hang on sending/pending if so turn on airplane mode, then turn off airplane mode and all should be good. this was tested on 4.1.2 with verizon sim in the phone. with non-verizon sim or no sim in had to use apn manager to activate apn
extremely huge thanks to mrctony for being so awesome to mail me a test s3 to develope this fix u rock man
Update: now added 4.3 test zip. The 4.3 zip is for DEODEX ROM ONLY pls post results.

Yeah, it might be something with CM11 then, it doesn't happen all the time but I get it quite often since CM11.
I also get 3g data drops, and I have to restart in order to get it again,I hope CM11 fix that soon.
Thanks for your response.

Hey everyone, I have flashed many Sprint variants to MetroPCS but never a Verizon. Is the process the same? Does the SIM slot need to be unlocked?

Verizon phones usually are factory unlocked but that doesn't matter for flashing it that only matters if u want to put it on metropcs gsm. As for flashing its basically the same but verizon u will prob have to enable hidden menu and when u flash connect to it send spc and set it to nv only then reboot then reconnect write prl and flash as normal
