A hotspot widget that works with 4.4? - Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anybody know of a widget that will turn on/off my hotspot? I tried apps at the top of the list in the Play Store but none of them work on my 4.4 kitkat. Any suggestions?

Widgetsoid has that and more. Massively customizable too.

Tried it out, but it won't disable the hotspot like others I've tried. Am I doing something wrong.

Have you tried the status bar ones on GravityBox? If you're not rooted you could install power controls and at least have a nice shortcut to tethering.

Nah, not rooted. The power controls don't have one for the hotspot.

Hmm. My roommates droid razr maxx is configured that way with power controls but it just takes you to the hotspot page not an actual toggle. Still a shortcut tho.

Oh, well my phone is a Droid Maxx, not of the razr variety.

Power controls will work. Just add a toggle and choose mobile hotspot. Will just be a shortcut. But always accessible in notifications.

No Off-Toggle
Does anyone know why the Hotspot toggle apps will toggle on the hotspot but won't toggle it off? Is it impossible to do with a third party app on 4.4?

Xbox smartglass build.prop modify

Well today the Xbox smartglass app came out. I'm on my Droid x2. the app is compatible with certain devices over android 4.0. Like the Droid razr and Samsung galaxy s3. Could I just change my build.prop to make the app work. And if so what lines will I have to change.

Dude did you try it? Does it work?

I'd definitely like to get that app too
If it is for Android 4.0+, then it is a COMPATIBILITY issue and would not work.
Now, build.prop editing would work if you know the app will work, it just says it wont

HTC Lock screen

My wife just bought an HOX (won't let me root it ) and I can't get the stock lockscreen to not appear. When I select "None", it's still exists. Help? Please?
No, I can't get a new wife.

Are you referring to under security selecting "None"? That just means no security. You can't remove the lockscreen entirely until Sense 4.5 where you can choose the no lockscreen option. However you can download a 3rd party lockscreen app and probably bypass that.
Any recommendations?

Not sure about no lock screen but if you'd like to try and give it a better appeal you could load Widget Locker. I use it and recommend it.

Widget locker is great, highly recommend it

If you're still looking for a Wifi tether app, I'm rooted with JB and the "Wifi Tether for Root Users" app by Muller,Lemons, Buxton works great. I put my device profile as Generic ICS/JB (wlan0) and it works perfectly

I can confirm this works and broadcasts in infrastructure mode.
Look up the Wireless Hotspot mod instructions using the SQLite Editor app from the play store. I've tried a ton of wireless tether apps from the market and nothing worked with my 4.1.1 RMaxxHD. Having the phone rooted and using the SQLite Editor mod allows you to use the Verizon Mobile Hotspot app free of charge. Works perfectly.
Thanks guys just had back expedience with first razr maxx and hotspots didmt think it would work on HD

Working with JB?
In case anybody reading this thread is new to Verizon and is on a shared data plan instead of unlimited data... you only need to root and do aftermarket hotspot if you're on unlimited. If you're on shared data plans, wireless hotspot is included -- no rooting or hacked hotspots necessary. It's already on your phone.

Actually its dead on. Its a feature that allows you to skip to the next/previous song using the volume keys while the screen is off. Very useful feature.

I've used Eclipse for moto x and it worked no problem

Mine would never show like the look handle or the actual notification when I got it. The time would light up and that's it. Happened on all the ROMs I used.

Actually, I figured it out. It had to do with using an sms app that has the pop up reply and I guess when that's on it doesn't show the actual notification.
