Hi guys!! I really need help and I'm hoping someone here can help me.
I'm using a Samsung Galaxy S3 on Verizon network.
Often times, I turned on my S3's hotspot and have my PC (or Mac) connect to my office PPTP VPN via verizon's hotspot on the S3.
Few days ago, I discovered that this stops working.
I can still get on the internet fine using the hotspot and I can no longer get my VPN working.
Connecting my PC/Mac with a regular wifi network can still get on the VPN just fine so
something is wrong with verizon or my S3.
Just wondering if anyone here is doing the same to get on VPN... and if it is still working.
Thanks!!
Hey new here to xda. Okay I'm having problems. I have an unrooted xperia z ultra c6806 and I'm on metro pcs. The thing is when I try to use wifi hotspot on other Android devices I can do it without a problem but when I try it with my ps4 everything connects fine but it won't let me sign into psn or go online but I go to the user's guide and get a metro pcs upsell page so that's the problem. Is there a work around to this that doesn't involve root bc I don't have a computer or wifi atm. I even tried to pay for their hotspot service but I can't bc I'm on the unlimited data plan and not using one of their phones. Any help would really be appreciated.
....Woops sorry didn't know where to post this but I don't know how to move it to q and a
Hello Members,
I have opted for BSNL (India) 3G service recently and its working okay on HTC One E8 but after turning "Mobile Network Sharing" on, data connection is turned off. I have tried sharing via Wifi Hotspot, USB Tethering but am still unsuccessful in sharing mobile`s data connection with laptop. Any solution for this issue.
Advance thanks!!

You should be able to share normally via Hotspot, if that doesn't work, then maybe BSNL 3G doesn't have the hotspot sharing facility. Try contacting BSNL for support, and find out from them.
Sadly there is no support from BSNL. They don't give support for hotspot sharing. I will try putting other network provider SIM and will share the status.

I'm pretty sure others should work, as Airtel, Vodafone and Docomo works fine for me.
After more experiments i got to know none of the "Data Services" even Edge doesn`t works after activating "Mobile Network Sharing" mode. What can be wrong? Hardware or Software?

I guess you're activating the Portable Wifi hotspot option there, right? Well in that case, it does work. Edge and 3g both work, just create a hotspot as it's supposed to.
So you might try resetting your device. Or elaborate a bit more.
Otherwise I'm afraid it might be a hardware issue. It's not a software issue as they are not on singular devices, and on mine it works flawlessly.
Silver.Shadow Thanks for participating in my issue. I believe its some software issue thus i am hoping this problem to be resolved in LOLLIPOP version. Fingers crossed :fingers-crossed:

Hello.
I need some help with my S5. like the title says, i don't have the option for wifi tethering also i don't have the wifi calling option either.
i live outside the US (dominican republic) and i can't do the update PRL thing. i tried to do that last time i was in the US (2 months ago) but since my phone was not activated on the sprint network it wouldn't work, the hands free activation would just go on and on and on until it failed. Anyone knows a way to activate those options?
what carrier do you use? GSM, I assume. if so, a PRL isnt ever going to work. The native hotspot on a 6.0 ROM is available and there are a few threads on that very topic. I also suggest idoneapps.com for their forums regarding this device as @Nodial is a manimal!!

This is what I did and it worked. I live in the us though, not sure if it will work for you or not.
