Does anyone know how to activate wifi Hotspot? I mean without paying sprint big money for a small amount of data usage. I purchased unlimited data for just this purpose.

You need root if you wish to do that. Once you have that there are apps that can do it easily for you!

I have root. Which one do you recommend?
I'm not rooted YET, but haven't heard of anyone confirming any of the tethering apps working yet. If you find one that works you should let everyone know...if not, I'm sure someone will figure it out soon...

Confirmed. Although the speeds are horrible, I'll have to find out why.
I'd wait for the hot spot flash file so you can use the native hotspot app built in like the s4

2nd on the request for settings...
I've seen fabio's o a couple threads,
even a mention that difficulties were overcome,
I tried the settings on his website, no-joy,
any help appreciated...
I have the Sprint variant, rooted...
thanx
I just used the default settings. I tried to change the password but that was an instant fail. It asks for root permission from super su and starts. If its on n u reboot the phone you must turn the app off then on again.

"and have the Xposed framework installed"
Sorry, I'm not familiar with Xposed framework.
Xposed framework is cited as Must Have.
Does the Sprint GS5 have Xposed framework installed?
thanx in advance...
No. Xposed framework is an add on for root users. It let's you install other mods. To get xposed framework, download the xposed installer from here:
http://repo.xposed.info/module/de.robv.android.xposed.installer
Then install the apk, open it and install xposed. It will tell you to reboot. Once you reboot, open it and go to downloads. Search for tether and you'll see the tether app. Also try out Gravity Box, Wanam xposed, they are modules, basically let's you change everything about your phone.

OK, so I followed those steps and it look s like its gonna work but then after a minute I get the notification that I am "Not subscribed to the hotspot service..."
I opened the SQL file and the value of tether_dun_required is back to 1. I tried changing it to zero, rebooting, and trying again but it doesn't work. Something keeps changing the SQL value back to 1.
Any other ideas? Does someone actually have it working this way using the native HotSpot in settings?
I don't have an Android phone any longer, switched to a Windows 8 phone just for a change of pace.
Don't know if Sprint (or Samsung) changed anything as far as the HotSpot goes on the S5.
I do know that it's much easier to do the mod on a DEodexed rom. On an odexed rom, you must first deodex the services.jar and services.odex, do the mod and then reodex the file. The method I used for reodexing required having an actual phone.
For deodexing the rom, I used Dxisda's kitchen which only runs on Linux. Unfortunately, I removed my Linux setup to recover the partition space on my hard drive. It's a chore to get that set back up, and don't plan on doing it. I'm sure someone will get a deodexed stock rom out there fairly soon, they always have in the past.
I am kind of curious if the hotspot mod will still work though and I DO still have the tools installed to deodex the services jar. If someone will send me the services.jar and services.odex from there phone, I'll take a look.
Unfortunately, what you will end up with is a deodexed services.jar that won't work unless you have a deodexed rom to run it on.

Just found that out. I was hoping there was at least one file some where that would disable it if it was renamed. That would probably make some FCs as a side affect.

As far as I know this only works on the rooted AT&T version and that's because I didn't create it and that's the only version I've tested it on.
If you download this:
http://d-h.st/z9O
And remove the two apks for email and exchange....
Then I booted into recovery mode and deleted both the existing email.apk and exchange.apk as well as the odex files
After that, I copy and pasted the apks from the zip into the app folder and rebooted the phone again.
Voila!
It didn't work perfect the first time and I got a bunch of force closes. After doing it again I didn't get any so if it works for you you shouldn't have any force closes.
For what it's worth I don't take credit for the zip and I don't take responsibility for If anything bad happens to your device..
I would recommend making a backup of the existing apks in case anything goes wrong.

Install Xposed and go to the modules tab and install "Exchange Bypass." Add your exchage account AFTER you install and enable the module and the security is gone.

I mean opposite, it probably isn't that hard and you can have it now if you do it yourself. Or ask for clues on how to do it instead of expecting someone else to do it for you.

Friday night I found out how to manually do it but java was being a pain in the butt and I wanted to test it before telling you how also so I could have the file to upload to you. Just so you know the file you needed to edit was the framework-res.apk not the .jar. the xml that needed to be edited was located at framework-res.apk\res\values\arrays.xml
Decompiled it just fine but on the compile after I was done editing java was being stupid and the compile failed. Hope this information can help you in the future.

Or edit the framework-res.apk yourself. I am glad I know how now because I will never need to wait for someone else to do it. well the only reason Iwould is if foxfi breaks in a update.

Where did you learn how to edit the framework-res.apk? I would rather know how to do it myself but my java skills are rudimentary at best (though I am a quick learner!!). What did you use to do the editing?
Thanks!
I downloaded a note 2 recovery zip of the modified apk. I then spent about ten minutes googling where the tether subscription checker was located then compared my apk to the note 2 apk. A lot of trial and error if you would like to see it old and slow has a edited recovery zip for the 4.3 tether (came out a day after I was looking for it so that's why I didn't choose that one). Just decompile both apk and look in framework-res.apk\res\values\arrays.xml. what I did when comparing it to the note 2 was open both of the XML in notepad++ and compare lines. I am confident I can now mod it without examples if it ever happens again. Finding a decompiler is the easy part there are a lot of free ones out there just Google it and as long as you can recognize every character in the XML (no odd symbols) it decompiled correctly. I could not find a guid on how to do this but I probably learned more from my errors than I would have learned from a step by step. Hope that helps and sorry if that made no sense typed it in a rush.

Oh and if you dig around in the apk long enough you might notice how easy (but time consuming) it would be to make your own custom modifications and themes for your own rom. I like doing it this way over xposed because no matter what I do xposed is super buggy for me.

The main difference is, I have baked the App Ops stuff into a Superuser apk which I have in /system/priv-app in my ROM. It's not a simple shortcut like a lot of the App Ops enabler apps.
Found via a quick Google: https://github.com/theblixguy/AppOps/tree/master/apk
Seems like this guy basically did the same thing. So grab the apk, push to /system/priv-app, set permissions to 664 (he recommends 777 which is not necessary but will also work), and reboot (might not even need to reboot).

Search for "Wanam Xposed" and install it in Xposed mod - I think it has an option to enable the "private" (or secure folder) I forget which affects S-health...
IMPORTANT!!!: Make sure you backup your feature.xml file (in the system/csc folder) - When you change anything in Wanam Xposed mod, it will completely re-make your feature.xml, and I had to manually edit mine a few times to get my settings back to the way I wanted. This is a personal warning from me to you! If you can edit your .xml file yourself, and if you're sure you know what you're doing, you'll have no problems.
I know I read something that S-Health has to do with not running because of the private folder (or system folder/partition or whatever it is...)
Google around if Wanam Mod doesn't fix it and do some research you'll find more info about it.

And then you can open private mode and set it up, and samething with s health after xposed is installed with xsecure or wanam. Also disabling knox with superSU doesn't seem to matter at all. As long you install xposed before you open any of those apps it should work.
