I tried deletine tehtering provision and tethering automation and installed hotspot toggle widget as a famous thread said but i manage to start the hotspot but the devices that connect to it are not able to use internet. So i need help. Have a rooted s4
I'm not aware of what AT&T proposed, but I suggest you to look at your current APN. Maybe you're not on the correct one.

Did you set the hotspot widget correctly in its settings? Do you have it set to transmit your SSID correctly?

I've been trying to use several apps to enable wifi hotspot including wifi tether, foxfi, barnacle, and many others. I it will activate but the hotspot name does not show up on other devices. However when I switched the device to 3G it will show up and connect. After messing with the settings in the app wifi hotspot I was able to get it show up on other device but not connect. Again I switched to 3G and it worked time, just not 4G speeds.
Any thoughts. I am on a rooted SIII and have the latest Verizon version.

Here are some tips to help your usage:
1. On some models if you run into WiFi problem after using the Hotspot, simply reboot your phone and rename the hotspot before activating to clear the issue.
2. For some Samsung phones if your computer is not able to get an IP address, try to turn on WiFi on the phone first and make sure it does not connect to any WiFi network, then turn on FoxFi.
3. FoxFi is tested on non-rooted phones. If your phone has a rooted ROM it may or may not work.
4. When WiFi hotspot is activated you may also see a hotspot notification of the built-in WiFi hotspot feature. Please ignore it. As long as you do not sign up for a tether plan you won't be charged.
5. If you enter or change the hotspot password, make sure you rename the hotspot also before activating.
6. Sometimes Windows need a "repair" on the WiFi menu to get a correct IP address.

If you're using an android phone you can set up your phone as a wifi hotspot. Settings/more/mobile network sharing. Not sure if your phone has to be rooted to do this.

Most of the time this feature is turned off by your carrier. You usually have to pay extra. But try wifi tether, barnacle from Google play there are some like pda that do not require root . good luck
Nice and easy to share celluar internet with your tablet. If you can't on your original, there is a few apps to help out with that on the play store. I perfer to use bluetooth to share the data, since it uses less battery power.
If you can't buy a Wifi/Bluetooth tethering app on your phone, you probably can on your tablet, and use a root file explorer to transfer the file from your tablet and install it on your phone. Just don't share that file with anyone else. You'll need to have your google play account on both devices, but it does work. Most Bluetooth tethering apps this way require a client and server, and don't work quite so well.
The second way you can go about it is more complex if your Celluar carrier has tethering turned off. Flash a non-tethering-blocked rom onto your phone (CyanogenMod works) and then just use the built in tethering. Bluetooth tethering this way works wonderfully.
And for both methods, might look into Tasker - an automation utility that can help set up connections when conditions are met.
But that is roughly your two options if your carrier has tethering blocked. Find an App or Flash your phone.
Good luck
First a question, is there any advantage to USB tether versus wi-fi tethering? For example better connection?
Second I want to have an icon on my home page that I can press and it will connect to USB tethering, not wi-fi tethering (that I can do). Any suggestions?
I've tried Tasker and it says that this option is not available. I've also tried many of the tether apps and widgets and can't find one that works.
I'm connecting to a Parrot Asteroid Smart and have it working with an auto connect to wi-fi tethering.

Worked like a charm, Thanks!
Can anyone point me to a good, preferably free solution to wifi tethering? As of now, this phone has root but no custom roms, so it looks like wifi tethering outside of Boost hotspot with its monthly fee will have to be provided in an app.
If anyone finds this question in a search, what seems to be working for me so far is wifi tether router.

A trick i found to get free usb tethering is download and install pdanet on youre laptop computer then use pdanet app.. i had to change the vpn to the 2nd option in the list in advanced settings of pdanet desktop app to get my internet connection to turn on.. but i got free uab tethering to my laptop..
I used the Galaxy tools app, it was only one click and hotspot was working instantly, all I did was click on enable native hotspot and try method two option in app, no reboot was even needed, I searched google for the app, it also has a lot of other useful features
the app listed me as not rooted but root access was granted and everything work in the app
Any update on this? I need tethering for my chromebook and usb tethering wont work with foxfi as I cant install it on chrome. I try other USB tether apps and my phone doesn't have USB tethering options apparently. I have already tried rooting the phone and editing the build.prop to insert "net.tethering.noprovisioning=true" and that will get me past the first hotspot error, but once the connected device tries to connect to the internet it throws the hotspot error at me.
I have the Virgin Mobile J7 2016 SM-j700p
Any help would greatly be appreciated
From the original stock rom, i flashed the PK1 stock rom(deodexed) solely to have hotspot up and running.
Now hotspot is visible on the notification panel, i now have an app named Hotspot and another named Tethering.
Here are the problems :
1. Hotspot doesnt turn on from the notification panel, 2. Tethering app doesn't display anything on lauch, just the title "Tethering"
3. Hotspot app lauches hotspot successfully, creates connection with max connection = 1. other android devices can't connect, my pc connects but with the "limited access" notification, can't browse.
I am using this device in Nigeria, i read somewhere that the hotspot works only with U.S carriers. I dont believe this.
Any information to help will be gladly appreciated.
Thanks
