[Q] Mobile Hotspot Q

When you root your phone, and you download a mobile wifi hotspot app.. And activate it. Does it charge you with your carrier(AT&T) as a mobile hotspot?& Will it use any of your monthly data when you use it to surf the web or stream music??

Tethering Hotspot

Currently I am using the custom rom Mahdi-Rom 2.7 [08/08]
I see that it has the tethering and portable hotspot under wireless network settings.
With tmobile, even though I have unlimited data, I believe they do have limit for hotspot sharing only 3gigs.
Can someone confirm that if we are using a custom rom, we can tether without our carrier knowing?
or we need to have some kind of VPN on the phone ? When I am out without wifi, I would like to use my phone's data connect to laptop.
The tethering and portable Hotspot is a feature of aosp. All roms has this feature since the oneplus one ships with cm which is pretty much aosp + cm features.
Depending on what your t mobile plan is, it has included tethering. So if you choose to tether, it will work.
If the carrier doesn't want you to tether and you don't have tethering on your plan then when you try and tether and a device connects to your portable Hotspot you will be greeted with a t mobile placeholder page telling you to get a tethering plan.

So first set up a portable hotspot and connect to your hotspot via your laptop see what happens first.

Android to Hotspot using BT Wifi

Hi all,
I'm looking for a way of turning my droid device into a portable Hotspot but using my existing BT Connection.
Essentially, I connect to BT OpenZone to access the internet. I have other devices I want to connect to the internet but they don't have browser options to login to BT Openzone.
So is there anyway I can use my droid as a hotspot without using mobile data.
Many thanks.

You could try:
- installing BTWifi app to auto-login to BTWifi hotspots
- setting up Android wifi hotspot on your android device
- turning off mobile data on your 2G/3G/4G connection
- setting up your other devices to connect to the Android wifi hotspot on your device
- keep your device plugged in to the mains for as long as possible
If you are rooted and running a custom rom like CM11, firewalls like AFWall+ give you even more options
