I was wondering what is the best rom [stable] for the s7 but with the feature to bypass my hotspot limit as i have unlimited lte on my phone but in hotspot once i use 10 gb the speed reduces to 128kbs
Just obtain root permissions and use WiFi Tether Router .apk
APK: https://mega.nz/#!gCxGgKLB!LsUp1UxJwaNJxY3mmMPmjY8MuqEEafA8iw4__VyNJxA

I've been having alot of trouble with the mobile hotspot lately
It either drops 4g and 3g connectivity or its really slow on "4g" connecting at less than 1mbps
Not sure what the problem is . I'm running unrooted 4.1.2 JZO54K
You may just have a poor signal. You should consider rooting and flashing a custom ROM like cyanogen, plus flashing a new radio/modem.

sis you already conduct a speed test?
I have conducted a speed test. I think it does a duplicate IP. I have had similar issues when I tether using my rooted galaxy nexus on both stock mobile hospot and wifi tethering app
Hi there,
I have a $70 T-Mobile Unlimited Plan which includes 2.5 GB wifi tether hotspot feature.
My question is, when i was on Sprint (Rooted ROM) I was able to use the built in wifi tether feature without any limitations.
It appears on the nexus 5 (android kit kat) that the carriers now have the ability to truly monitor this useage.
Would i be able to get around it by using a 3rd party tethering app?
Anyone else had success in going over the 2.5gb wifi hotspot allowed?
It makes no sense to me why me using my data on my nexus 5 vs. tethering and using my nexus 7 should be limited.
Thanks in advance,
RR

I have the same plan...you might also have to change your apn settings to ipv4, at least I had to. btw, i'm just south of riverside, ca and although my lte speeds are over 20 mbs down, if I change the preferred network settings to hspa (3g?) instead of lte, I can stream with little to no buffering.

This should help. Read the thread and figure it out.
You will not get around the limit using a third party app (if you want it to work over wifi). It may not make any sense to you, but to providers it does because they can make money. I agree, it's dumb that they want to charge more to share a data plan you already use, but it's us vs them and they're are big wireless companies... so I don't think our complaints will go very far.
You should be happy that you do have the 2.5GB because it can be very handy in a pinch when you need to do something on laptop or tablet but no wifi available or because the available network is just straight up garbage.
But since you say you're using your tablet, have you tried bluetooth vpn with PDAnet? I used to do that for my tablet. It's not the greatest because some apps wont recognize the bluetooth as you have a "internet connection" but its worth a try. I havent used it in a while as I really dont tether much these days so I'm not sure how good it is these days.
Do this and u should be ok...no tethering limits.
how do you get to the pages shown in the thumbnails

As a new member to the family of android devices, may i ask how you made your way to that cmd page, yes i know im a noob
Install android terminal from play store open it and execute that...oh you gotta be rooted for this to work.
Not Working
This did not bypass hotspot limits on Nexus 5 "tether_dun_required". I can use bluetooth to tether.
Can anyone confirm this works? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.snclab.wifitetherrouter
Is Wi-Fi tether still disabled on T-Mobile for Android version 4.4.3?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Premium HD app
It was disabled on 4.4.2? It worked for me then on stock ROM. I'm on 4.4.3 I'll test and get back to you.
Edit : on 4.4.3 rooted stock I set my mobile AP on my Nexus 5 to WPA2 and used my Kindle Fire to load Google.com and it worked. I have T-Mobile LTE and 1.5GBs of tethering allowance on my account.
In short, its not blocked on 4.4.3 nor was it before.

Are you referring to tethering while using a T-Mobile plan that does not have a tethering allowance on it? I am looking into this too. I have only been able to get the "free 100MB tethering" that is included with my Unlimited for $30 plan with T-Mobile. Now that I have flashed the factory image for 4.4.3, I am going to try tinkering around with this again.
always has worked here, no tinkering.
Look up the previous thread/topic for tethering block - simple "edit" to settings.db using (free App) dSQLiteManager, save changes & move back to /data/data folder per instructions - after making backups, exit & reboot and good to go. Change APN settings to IPV4 and not IPV6.
The new T-Mo UpSell screen pop-up gone & profit / enjoy ! Stock's rom built-in WiFi Hotspot works fine - the restrictions is on T-Mo's end.

theres tethering included in every one of their plans with data, so paying for it shouldnt be the issue. op just cant connect.

Technically, you are right.
I'm fairly sure the OP is talking about getting around the upsell page after using up the 100 MB of tethering included with the prepay $30 Unlimited plan.

Dunno. The built-in tethering has always worked for me, but I would quickly hit the 100 MB limit. Works here, Nexus 5 running 4.4.3 on T-Mobile. Especially after adding the settings.db.
Yes, I'm talking about using Wi-Fi hotspot without using settings.db and changing the APN. I had to use this method in order to use wi-fi hotspot when I was on 4.4.2. I'm just wondering if this method is still required on 4.4.3 in order to use wi-fi hotspot on T-Mobile if you're currently not on their wi-fi tether plan.

I'm not asking how to "steal."
I'm asking if it's still disabled. Prior to 4.4, it was not necessary to perform any work around.

I don't think those settings are required anymore, even with the $30 prepaid plan. After a clean install, I was about to do the tether_dun_required/IPv4 changes as before, when I realized that USB tethering was running fine out of the box. Either Google, or T-Mobile (more likely) fixed the issue.
I see that root is pretty easy now. I had a Note 2 on verizon with unlimited data. I am going to blow through my tether limit soon. So my question is besides samsung pay (dont care) does Root break anything. Because I only need it for unlimited tethering. And with the current way to bypass the data checks does it break anything on the phone?
Short answer is no. It trips knox fuse. But, you can still use private mode, fingerprint scanner etc. Loving being rooted
Pdanet maybe?

Yo can do unlimited tethering with tekhd roms and some other roms you can check or even talk with the dev on his op so he can answer you better with changelogs but is a yes and i personally cant use it as of now but i know unlimited thetering works just verify again with the developers of your phone

Do you guys get unlimited Hotspot?
If I download anything on my computer then it uses Hotspot data.
But if I play Xbox live or netflix then it doesn't
When I was using KK 4.4.4 I install VPN software on my laptop and Tmo cant see the agent string on the browser and I keep on surfing free. Now its not working anymore with LP.

I've found that PDAnet+ works w/o a hitch w/ USB tethering; using native hotspot tethering hacks are intermittently successful depending on the settings and ROM.

+1 for pdanet! I actually got throttled last month after using all my tethering data and I was able to tether unrestricted at normal speeds via USB with pdanet.
Another option that works with all Roms I've tried is WiFi Tether Router (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.snclab.wifitetherrouter). When tethering my laptop I use a user-agent spoofer and choose safari on Mac as the user agent, seems to have worked well so far.
Is there any Mobile Hotspot tether apps anyone invented to be used with a rooted HTC U11 Life 8.0 that will give it the full tether speed & not only 128kbps of the speed. Thank you
I'm with this guy. AT&T cuts me off at 15gb with hotspot.

I appreciate it. Darknight I still been looking to find a reliable Wi-Fi tether app the one I found Wi-Fi tether for rooted phones for some strange odd reason is not compatible with the magisk
