Hi all I have decided to create this small change to re-enable the feature only 2 g for all Custom Rom/Rom stocks which don't have this entry in the active settings. The file has been personally tested by me on MaximusHD 10. But I'd appreciate it if you leave a comment indicating which rom you use with edit...
Needed
modified file (DOWNLOAD)
file manager (ES File Explorer; Root Explorer)
five minutes of time
Let's Start
1. Download the file from above and move in the phone's memory
2. Using a file explorer, move the default file in the following location:
Code:
system->customize->ACC
2.1 If it asks you to overwrite say yes
3. Reboot your device and network settings now include the item "ONLY 2G"
Hi, remember that by changing sku_id you might also get inaccurate 4g/lte signal bars.
I made a thread I M7 forums some time ago with all available sku_id's.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2594804
It's the same for M8.

Wifi Tethering Mod
Here are the original instructions use the zip at your own risk. It seems some people are experiencing problems with it...
I have modified the instructions to pertain to the Flex exactly.
This mod is not for the newbie, you must be rooted and I implore you to make a safe back up file in a new location of the file you will be editing. Actually two back ups, one completely stock the other you will use for editing.
I have edited his instructions for usage on the Pantech Flex running ICS.
Here’s the usual disclaimer: if you brick your phone it’s not my problem…. though I will help in any way I can as in my research I soft bricked my own device and was able to get it restored to a factory state.
Steps:
1. Root device using this method http://forum.xda-developers.com/show….php?t=2008888
2. Acquire/Install SQlite Editor or any Android SQL editor of your choice, Install ES File Explorer or Root File Explorer
3. Navigate to (root level) /Data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/
4. Copy file settings.db Navigate to SDcard/Backups/ now paste file to this location
5. Rename the file in Backups/ settings.db to settings.db.bak (if all goes to hell this is your backup file)
6. Paste the file again so you will have two settings files in Backups one ending in .bak and one ending in .db (this is the file you will be editing).
7. Open SQLite Editor and point it to /sdcard/Backups/settings.db and open it. You now will see a list of settings locations. Click on “secure”
8. Here you are going to be looking for two distinct lines. The line numbers may vary by device so I suggest you list name in list view:
Line 1. softap_free_supported
Line 2. softap_entitlement_interval
9. Change Line 1′s value to 1 in the SQL editor. Change Line 2′s value to 0 in the SQL editor save and close or just close depending on the editor.
10. Using your file explorer navigate back to /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/ rename settings.db to settings.db.bak
11. Navigate to /sdcard/backups/settings.db(the one you edited) and copy the file go back to com.android.providers-etc and paste the file.
12. SUPPER IMPORTANT if the file permisuions on settings.db are not rw-rw-rw make them so in your file explorer.
If these permissions are no correct your phone will get stuck on the AT&T boot screen. ie softbricked
13. Reboot and you should be able to go to More in settings then Tethering & portable hotspot and turn it on set up your settings etc.
14. FYI under battery management you may want to change the value to never time out as it applies to the phones activity not the wifi activity.
This had been tried and tested on AT&T only it may work on other carries. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!
Zip Method
You must be rooted and have CWM intalled.
1 Download the recovery mod zip file to the internal storage of your phone.
2 Reboot into recovery and make a CWM backup of your phone.
3 From recovery clear the cache and dalvik cache
4 Install the zip from the location you saved it to.
5 Reboot your phone.
6 Go to your phone settings wireless and networks, click on more, click on tethring and portable hotspot, click the box next to portable-wifi-hotspot. You are now up and running.
7 Personalize your hotspot settings in portabpe wi-fi hotspot settings.
8 Grab a free app like Hotspot Toggle to add to your home screen for easy one click on and off.
A huge Thank You goes out to Timmythanoob for making my original mod zip installable!

Its because the file you edited is in your data folder. You will need to change a few things in your system folder to completely enable it.

Use the manual method for now we have a new zip file that should be up within the next 24 hours.
The manual method only changes the exact strings of info pertaining to tethering so it doesn't disturb the system files etc.

The link to flashable zip file is not working. Would you please upload again or provide a valid link?
Sorry guys all the zip installable files people have done for me have not worked for various reasons.
The manual method works tried and true on AT&T. I don't know about other carriers but I'm sure you would want to look at the same settings in the same file for changes.
By the way bluetooth tethering also works with this mod, but wifi tether yields much higher internet speeds.
---------8/18/13 WIFI MALFUNCTION----------
It appears wifi malfunction on that rom but not only .ALL new hardware (MORE-LESS) with a new wifi chip are no full compatible with JB 4.1.2 (.Even stock Vodafone...B171)

I solved the problem with this method published on another website:
"
Press these menu options on your phone: Settings > Wi-fi> (Choose your network by tapping on it for a few seconds) > Modify network config
Check "Show advanced options"
Choose IP Settings: "Static"
Enter these details
IP - 192.168.1.253 or 195.168.1.253 (I chose 192.168.1.253)
Gateway - 192.168.1.1 (I chose 192.168.1.1 since that's my router address)
NPL - 24
Netmask - 255.255.255.0 (I could not find this option)
DNS 1 - 8.8.4.4 or 8.8.8.8 (I had the latter by default and let it stay)
DNS 2 - 4.4.4.4
And save.
It just connected in a few milliseconds. "

Hello Friend, can you please leave the links link? They are fallen and I want to solve the problem
For everyone installing the Stock Roms, the carrier name will be displayed in the notifications bar, which i found really ugly and kinda stupid. In this guide ill show you how to remove it.
--This guide works only on the SGH-I337 model. I haven't teseted it anywhere else. If you do, leave a post below--
-- First of all, you need to have Root Access, since we are editing system files (duh!). Secondly im not responisble for any damage done to your device for not following the steps correctly. I did it on mine and its running flawlessly. --
--- Instructions --
Download a root file explorer (I used ES File Explorer)
Mount /system as r/w. (In ES File explorer you do this by +swiping left->right from the left side of the screen to open the settings +scroll to the bottom and enable root explorer +tap on root explorer +tap on mount r/w +on /system choose option rw)
Close settings and on the top where it reads sdcard tap it and from the window choose / Device
Navigate to system folder
Before editing the build.prop file make a backup so if something goes wrong you can restore it later. Copy the file and paste it somewhere in the /sdcard directory (Not necessairly).
Open the build.prop file
Edit these lines as below
From ro.product.device=jflteatt to ro.product.device=jflte
From ro.product.name=jflteuc to ro.product.name=jfltexx
Save file and Reboot.
This method will also replace the 4G Icon to the default one. And that's it! If something goes wrong simply restore the old build.prop file.
UPDATE:For those who changed the product model on build.prop: no need to change model name on build.prop - leaving it to SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 will still remove the carrier name and keep the default product model on about phone section.
If this helped you, don't hesitate to click the Thanks button
Found out that after doing this change, I noticed that the AT&T 4G icon was lying to me about the mobile data speeds. Reverting back to the samsung default ones showed me that i was getting 3G ~ H speeds instead of the constant AT&T 4G it was telling me, meaning the 4G icon is displayed no matter what, as long as you are not on edge (E). Edge Icon displayed fine.
Hey guys and gals,
I was digging around looking for a solution to the problem:
S5 loses WiFi password, and I was disappointed that it took me 20 minutes to find it.
So, if you have the same issue (or if I do, and I don't remember how I fixed it this time!), here it is in a nutshell:
You'll need to have root access, and a file explorer that can use root access (I used ES file explorer).
Navigate to "device>system>build.prop"
Open the file in your choice of editor, and find the line, "ro.securestorage.support".
It should say =true right now. Change that to =false, exit and save the file.
Reboot the device.
You'll have to enter the WiFi password once more.
Reboot again to verify function, enjoy WiFi auto-connecting.
-Warning-
This was only tested by me yet, worked like a charm in my SM-G935F from Brazil with
Android MM 6.0.1
Build Number: MMB29K.G935FXXU1BPLB
Do it at your own risk
Well, since I rooted my S7 Edge, I noticed that it's Wi-Fi wasn't working right, it didn't save the networks I had previously connected, and took a lot of time to recognize the networks when you turned on Wi-Fi, and after searching and searching for a while, finally found out how to fix it.
Requirements
- Phone must be rooted.
- Es File Explorer(you can download it on Play Store or download the .apk file)
I used ES File Explorer because it's easy to enable Root Explorer, but you can use any other file explorer if you want(since it enable you to use Root Explorer)
It's a easy process, but you need to be careful because any pass you follow incorrectly can brick your device(I guess).
So once you installed ES File Explorer, open it and click on the menu(upper left side), scroll down and enable the Root Explorer option, then go to your internal storage main folder(" / "), scroll down and enter the system folder, in this folder, you will find a txt archive named "build.prop", backup this archive, open it and tap options then edit.
You will:
1. Find the line "ro.securestorage.support=true";
2. Change true to false;
2. Save in the system folder;
3. Reboot the phone.
PS: If you haven't enabled the Root Explorer option, you will not be able to save the file.
If it don't work, replace the build.prop archive you backed up previously in the system folder.
Nice guide. But it probably won't work on Nougat, you need to replace secure storage libs with ones from Superkernel.
