Hello everyone,
I have a hTC m8 (Harman Kardon edition) gifted by my client from USA. When I received the device, it was factory locked through Sprint Mobile. After a month of research on internet and on this forum, I have unlocked it to use GSM services in India, and its working fine now.
But now the problem is it does not have the Tethering option. I want to tether my M8's internet connection with other devices but it has no option to enable WiFi tethering or anything. I have also tried a few third party tethering app from play store like(FoxFi, Wifi Tether, etc..) but had no luck. They all failed to establish a connection.
I am new to this forum, so am not allowed to post screenshot or any external link.
Please help me, how can I enable the tethering or internet sharing option on my device.
Device Specs:
1: Model no: 831C
2: Rooted and Unlocked
3: Android Version - 4.4.2
4: S/w Version - 1.54.654.13
Please help me and let me know if more details are required.

Hello,
So I have an AT&T unlocked Samsung G850A. The problem is that I can not turn WifI hotspot on, it says Mobile data is not available or invalid sim.
After hours of searching for a solution, I found one where I'd need to root the phone then change a file. I then searched for a root for the G850A, and was unable to find one.. Can someone please help? The phone is almost useless without the hotspot.
Thank you

Hello, and welcome to XDA! From what I have been able to find, your version of the phone cannot be rooted, but I would recommend you post and ask here for confirmation: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-alpha/help. You may also get some pointers as to why your wifi hotspot isn't working. Please register so that you can post.
Good luck!
Originally mobile was purchased from - Verizon . Recently i moved to T-Mobile service
Data pack is already available in my T-mobile plan.
I am trying to get the mobile hot spot working on htc one m8 , but when i am turning on the mobile it is showing "An unknown error occured, please try again later". I tried to contact htc team they said to update the mobile firmware . however my mobile is already have the firmware when i updated with verizon.
I got to know that if i will root my phone, the mobile hotsopt will work(already working on one of my friends mobile) . I have few question regarding that.
How can i do that ?
Is there some tool i have to purchase to get it done easily ?
What OS version should i use ?
Any side effect i might not be aware of after doing the root ?
Thanks in advance.

Got the exact same problem. Replying with the hope that someone will notice. If you have found a solution please share.
I have a Verizon Samsung Galaxy S5 that I have unlocked and am using on the T-Mobile network. Unfortunately, even though I have tethering/hotspot capabilities with my current service plan, I cannot use my hotspot or tethering features; I always receive a 'mobile number not found' error message. This is obviously a problem that needs to be fixed using root, but I'm really not finding any guides on how to go about the process. Assuming I root the device, I still wouldn't know how to go about modifying any of the current hotspot functions.
This seems to be an issue that a lot of people have, any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

Any idea About that
Hi there and welcome to assist,
It's possible that the 4G functionality is not enabled for your device.
You need to check with your provider whether they haven't done anything (not) clever before selling the phone to you, like installing a different version of firmware.
Now that you have updated to the correct firmware version the 4G option may have been disabled.
You'll have to create an account to post in the main forums if you have any other questions.
Good luck
Hi,
I've acquired a N950U recently and unfortunately there is no Tmobile device unlock app installed on it.
I searched for official Tmobile stock firmware but on every one I tried (many many) there wasn't that particuliar app in them.
I can't yet root the phone as this is a bootlader v4. I also tried to switch with U1 firmware but can't use my simcard or create an APN.
I get always sim card is not supported and in APN section a message that I'm not allowed to create any.
Can anyone help me to get the T-Mobile device unlock app compatible with my N950U?
ps: I already searched this apk file but none of which I found was compatible with my phone.
