How to Unlock Verizon Hotspot after being rooted kernaled and rommed?

I am coming from Sprint and usually after being rooted kernaled rommed you can unlock sprint hotspot so you can teather for free. Is this the same for Verizon or is there a special way it needs to be done?

Download and install that app. Start the app, go to settings. Change device-profile to Samsung Fascinate and setup-method to softap for samsung (master). Change SSID and add encryption if you want. Then use that app to tether and it should work fine.

Thank you very much I will try this out. I will not be charge for this right?

Does the encryption work for you? When I set it up it hangs on authorizing when trying to connect, when I remove encryption it connects fine

Works fine for me. I enable the second encryption option and leave the first unchecked.

I wonder if this would work .... I would have to try on my free time, but it looks promising:

Can you send a pic of the encryption options cause I don't see them, and I always have to restart my phone if I want to tether again

I leave encryption off but enable access control. Get notified when a computer or device tries to connect, than I enable access.

I have not had that issue, now or in the past using 3.0 pre 12. Might be because I'm not using the encryption.

I use encryption and I don't have that problem on pre12. I do on later versions.

Reason I choose not to run encryption is... Using a PC I have no issues with encryption. When trying to tether my nook color
it will not work with encryption enabled. So instead of changing settings everytime I bounced from one unit to another, I simply disabled encryption and rely on access control. Sometimes I have my pc and nook going at same time also.

Flash in custom recovery. This mod is for deodexed roms only.
@boss336, if this resolves your problem, please edit your post to say (SOLVED) in the title so that others may see this and profit.

Ahh, well the mod I posted won't work for you then I'm sure you already know.
The system update thing seems to be normal. It is rather annoying but only happens on a reboot.

Apps broken after modding dpi to 280. Can't crop images

Any solution to this?
I've modded dpi to 280 using the adb method, im not rooted.
Moto Camera worked fine, after the update it started detecting the swap camera button as a tap and used to take a pic. Had to rollback to factory version and it works fine now.
but, i cant crop images in any app.. it shows only one-fourth of the image and I can't pan / zoom. Crop is broken.

I didn't realize the DPI could be changed in adb, learn something new every day.

I use app settings and change Android system to 270. Everything seems to work. If I find a troublesome app, I change just that app to 320.

I believe it's "adb shell wm density “INSERT_DPI” && adb reboot" I've never had much luck with changing the DPI. Several apps that I really need refuse to install and/or update if I change it.

Have you guys tried this app? I'm on stock rooted and set to 280 without problems.

I'm not rooted, which is why I can't set individual dpi for apps.

Yeah but what about rooting to set and then unrooting? If your bootloader is locked I'd imagine you could do so safely too. I know it doesn't exactly work as you would like, but maybe a good workaround until you did? Just so you can have your apps optimized.

This just edits the build.prop....why the need for an app to do that?

OMG, really?!?!?! Would you please be kind enough to share the apk?
**edit**
nevermind, I found it. Thank you for letting me know!! You seriously have no idea how excited I am to have this one back!!! Screen rotation is absolutely HUGE for me, and I've been having to resort to half-baked root app solutions with more bugs than working parts since the lollipop update.

Hello paul...... Go to settings and run self activation. Let it run it's course. That should take care if it for you

Didnt help bro but thanks

I've got the same issue. Very irritating. I've since rooted, installed beastmode, started Uninstalling a few system apps. Seeing if i can find an answer. I'll try self activation. As it seems the most logical.

I had this issue with my LG G4, and trailed me to the Note 5. I haven't had this pop-up now for a while since I had to do a factory reset in-os and in recovery. You might want to try that first.

Ummm thanks for the kind words regarding a kernel I make in my free time without owning this device?
No, it's not my kernel making things "crazy." What you're experiencing has to do with "ItsOn" and since I use original N920P source, and ramdisk, it mounts the carrier partition and the system loads itson from there.You can remedy this simply by using a root explorer to navigate to /carrier and remove itson related things.
Please don't blame my kernel and spread rumors if you don't understand what's happening.

Hotspot patch

How do i do the hotspot patch for marshmallow without having to root? Before all you needed to do was change apn settings but i dont see that option anymore

I've never seen the Sprint proxy part of that. Anyone have more info on that?

Someone told me they took it out with the marshmallow update
