So I recently did a format a few weeks ago. Before that I was using the build.prop hack to enable hotspot on cricket wireless for years. I swear I've been able to turn on the hotspot since the format, but now all of a sudden it's not working. When I go to turn hotspot on it immediately turns itself back off.
I looked in build.prop editor and the net.tethering line was not in there. So I added that. Then I went into terminal to add settings put global tether_dun_required 0. I rebooted and it's still not working. "Dun" is not in my apn settings and the hotspot is doing the same thing.
Is this a recent change with cricket wireless? Am I just doing the hack wrong? Any help would be appreciated.
OnePlus 7 pro, OOS 10.1, xxx NoLimits 9.2, and smurfkernel
Bump. did oos10 break this method?
Update: it works on old Moto G5 Plus running Pie. So it's not the carrier blocking it.
that waa taken by carrier long ago its in the framework if rooted i have thread and pdanet+ works
that was stopped by carrier log ago if rooted try these or with your carrier like att do you have tether provision apk thats easy to fix i told you id try to help tell me os and mmc mnc tether_offload helps also try those 2 ill help others probably will
gravity box beta 5 will edit framework safely
Have you tried this (this is for usb tethering):
adb shell su -c service call connectivity 33 i32 1 s16 text
You have to put ",dun" in your APN type setting.
OR FROM TERMINAL
su
settings put global tether_dun_required
Does it work on TMobile?

this worked for me on my e5 plus after many attempts to get tether to work without throttling. So it's adb shell command execute then going into my apn settings and adjusting apn type to include dun.

I made a thread for Rooted AT&T 2.20 about enabling factory tethering. I found out that using this same .db file on 3.18 was not working for me. So I went back and re-edited the telephony.db that came with 3.18 and it seems to work again. I have uploaded the 3.18 version of telephony.db to enable factory hotspot sharing again. I have CleanROM 6 R2 installed and this seems to work well on it. Should work on stock rooted phones as well.
To Install
1. Extract telephony.db into the same folder as your adb.exe
2. Run these commands (they create a backup as well as push the edited database):
>adb shell
[email protected]:/ $ su
[email protected]:/ # dd if=/data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/telephony.db of=/sdcard/telephony.db.bak
>adb push telephony.db /sdcard/telephony.db
>adb shell
[email protected]:/ $ su
[email protected]:/ # dd if=/sdcard/telephony.db of=/data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/telephony.db
[email protected]:/ # reboot
After reboot everything should work fine.
this is awesome, but you got my hopes up with the "rooted 3.18" title. you may want to move that bit to the end of the title. will definitely use this if my phone is ever unlocked again :\
Ha I got all excited too. And I may be wrong, but shouldn't this be in the development section?

I tried again with windows pack and winzip... Both shows empty file.
I disabled Eset Enpoint, and I downloaded it 3 times.
However, I am using stock rom and I have the SQLite Editor. What changes did you do? Do you just have to change file 12 'broadband' to 'pta'?

I don't remember which line exactly off the top of my head. I am reattaching the zip file see if that works if that fails then I will go in a compare the standard .db with the new one. It was a simple one line change just don't remember which line it was. Trial and error is how I found it.

I guess you did it using SQLite editor, it works for me.
Make a backup of telephony.db
Your internet APN should be configured (Settings - Mobile data - Access Point names)
1)Open Telephony.db (flange files: data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases)
2)Select 'carriers'
3)Search second row, then select Edit field
4)Change ID field with a number non used in this db (ex: in my case the last row is "42" so I used "43") - Save
5)Repeat the 3 and 4 steps, but using row 12.
6)Search the last line (or line with your carrier internet APN)
7)Select the row and Edit Field.
8)Change the ID field to "2". - Save
9)Chose the second row, then Clone Record and change ID field to '12' - Save
Just need to change a lot of things
Row number 2 -> Edit field
1)Change name to ATT Phone
2)Type to "default"
2)Insert_by field to "internal".
3)State to "readonly"
Row number 12 -> Edit field
1)Change name to Entiltlement
2)Type to "entitle"
2)Insert_by field to "internal".
3)State to "hidden"

The AT&T ROMs are a real pain in the butt in regards to tethering and WiFi hotspot. As you are already bootloader unlocked and rooted, I would suggest just flashing any non-AT&T base ROM, and the tethering functions should work properly. Especially if you are not on AT&T, and your carrier does not limit tethering in any way (it looks like you are not located in the US?).
In my opinion, there is nothing "good" about being on the AT&T ROM. Many functions are intentionally broken or hidden, with nothing useful added. So going to a non-AT&T based ROM is "win" all around.

No offense to the OP, but I would suggest not wasting any more time with this method (its been 6 months after all). As I already mentioned in Post #11 above, just flash any custom or stock rooted ROM that is not AT&T base (Sense base - I don't follow AOSP ROMs enough to know how well WiFI hotspot works on those), and WiFi hotspot will work fine.
You are right

yes, really I flashed with T-mobile Sense 5 ROM five months ago, and its better option.
So I can across this on my Google + feed and was wondering what the exact command would be and if there are other "global settings " commands to use with adb? I am on stock 8.1 on my sailfish and I'm curious to see if this can help resolve my Volte issue or not:
"Can I (and should I) enable VoLTE on my Nexus 6?
While messing around in adb's "settings list global" command I came across this toggle: volte_feature_disabled=1
Is this something that we can play around with?"
What do you guys/gals think?

Yeah, adb will let you change anything in the settings database. Not going to hurt anything to try. I changed some settings on my Pixel to force wifi calling to be preferred.

This was for the wifi calling. I guess just substitute your VOLTE variable. An easier way is to get settings database editor from the play store. It gives you instructions on how to grant the app system permission with adb. Then you can edit the database directly from your phone.

If the string you're looking for isn't already in your database I doubt you'll be successful in adding a new string as not all phones have the same settings.

Is your phone a pixel and what exactly are you trying to enable? You wanting VOLTE and wifi calling? Even with it enabled in the Database your phone will need to be provisioned by the carrier for it to work.

Yeah, it's a pixel. Yes I want wifi and volte. I'm guessing my phone really does need to be bought from the carrier to work because I already chatted with phone support and they sent the config but nothing changed. Thought maybe I had to something else. Damn. Thanks again man.
Rooted Pixel 2 Hotspot -- "To enable, go to att.com/mywireless or dial 611."
Ex-squeeze me? You're a Pixel! You're not supposed to respect carrier crap!
Is there a good way to bypass this with root? All I have done so far is upgrade completely to the latest version of 8.1 and installed Magisk.
Thanks.

in build.prop add line:
net.tethering.noprovisioning=true
build.prop is at root level/system
Probably you can put it anywhere in build.prop, but I put it just after the other "net" command.
Then you should be good to go. Type carefully. Not sure what would happen if you type an invalid command in build.prop.

Did that solution work? I'm contemplating buying a Pixel 2 but want to make sure the hotspot feature works. I'm on the original Verizon unlimited and still want to be able to hotspot.
Can anyone confirm that this 9.0 pie update breaks all call recording app from the play store. Thanks for your feedback.
Updated to Android 9 today and boldbeast no longer works, it will record my voice but not that of the call )-: I am considering root now to get the feature back as i did find it useful.
Update: found this on the play store https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.jroot3d.joneplustools&hl=en_GB
Its all working fine now as it enables the oneplus6 built in recorder.
Thanks
But that also means that it wouldn't work without root like myself. Right?
Guess I gotta stick with my 8.1 until someone figures this one out. This one feature is like super important to me atm.
Thanks again for your kind reply.
Hi,
No root required, my phone is standard no unlocked bootloader and no root.
You just need to install the software, then enable developer options on your phone, enable usb debbugging and send the following command to your phone. adb shell pm grant net.joneplustools android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS
Then you will have the option in the software (joneplustool) to enable call recording and also restore calling recorder at boot.
Then on the phone dialler , go into settings and enable call record.

I wanted to give it a try, but I can't use it unless I give permission to access my contacts. A call recording app should work without that. So: sorry, won't test it any longer.

It enables the default, native Call Recorder found on op6 and op5 and I really like it. It recorded all my today's calls ranging from 625KB to 2.29MB all good quality(aac files)

When you say you used it on Pie, do you mean the beta or final version?

You can also use Tasker to enable native call recording (provided you've granted WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS permission to Tasker).
It seems the system deactivates jOnePlus from activating call recorder after 8 hours. Anyway to make it a permanent activation?
Even after removing jOnePlus from the battery optimize list, the call recorder still gets deactivated after a couple of hours.

I took the official OTA Pie upgrade and enabled the recorder with adb command after that. I'm not planning to root my phone, at least not yet. I'm enjoying the Pie Rom as is. It's all good, actually great with the night mode, there is no bloat. I disabled few apps, mainly from google and that's that. I remember times when rooting was an important necessity, I've had a Motorola Defy XT, long time ago, with 1GB RAM and no space for any extra apps, rooting was mainly used for getting the bloat out and moving apps to SD card by way of creating ext4 partition.
My OP6 has 256GB storage space, 8GB RAM and I just don't feel like constantly reloading the system, chasing newest twrps and Magisk versions, softbricking etc,etc.. and having my phone 'off line' for hours while I'm fixing it.

Hello,
I've rooted a few phones, but I don't really do too much with them, I mostly root them to have an easier time transferring all data from one phone to the next, and for being able to use a couple of root apps. Basically, I'm not all that good at this stuff, but I can get by most of the time with enough research and time. I have not been able to find a thread that's been able to help me with this problem, though.
My V20's reception practically fell off the map after rooting it. I've been researching and trying to find a way to flash the modem files that I dumped with LGUP before I rooted it via dirtysanta, but I'm not having any luck. The files don't have an extension, but from what I can gather, they should be image files. I'm not 100% on that because I can't seem to find what file type they actually are, my computer only lists them with the description of "file". I run Windows 7 if that matters.
Anyway, based on what I've found so far, the files I need to flash in order to fix my reception problem are:
modem_COM5
modemst1_COM5
modemst2_COM5
fsg_COM5
I can't get fastboot to work, I'm not sure how to link my phone to a file path on my computer from command terminal so that's not been working for me. I've also tried renaming the files by adding ".img" to the end, zipping them and installing them with twrp afterward, but they won't install, giving me an error of "META-INF/com/google/android/update-binary"
Ultimately, I'm lost. Any help is greatly appreciated, as I've spent hours pouring over threads and trying to fix my stupid reception problems. I have no reception at home, none at work, and I have spotty reception while driving or out in other places, but it's generally terrible. I used to have low reception at home, but I could always make a call if I needed to, and I'd have great reception driving around. Then I rooted my phone and my reception tanked.

Basically, I'm not all that good at this stuff, but I can get by most of the time with enough research and time. I have not been able to find a thread that's been able to help me with this problem, though.
My V20's reception practically fell off the map after rooting it. I've been researching and trying to find a way to flash the modem files that I dumped with LGUP before I rooted it via dirtysanta, but I'm not having any luck. The files don't have an extension, but from what I can gather, they should be image files. I'm not 100% on that because I can't seem to find what file type they actually are, my computer only lists them with the description of "file". I run Windows 7 if that matters.
Anyway, based on what I've found so far, the files I need to flash in order to fix my reception problem are:
modem_COM5
modemst1_COM5
modemst2_COM5
fsg_COM5
I can't get fastboot to work, I'm not sure how to link my phone to a file path on my computer from command terminal so that's not been working for me. I've also tried renaming the files by adding ".img" to the end, zipping them and installing them with twrp afterward, but they won't install, giving me an error of "META-INF/com/google/android/update-binary"
Ultimately, I'm lost. Any help is greatly appreciated, as I've spent hours pouring over threads and trying to fix my stupid reception problems. I have no reception at home, none at work, and I have spotty reception while driving or out in other places, but it's generally terrible. I used to have low reception at home, but I could always make a call if I needed to, and I'd have great reception driving around. Then I rooted my phone and my reception tanked.

I appreciate you making the zip, but after flashing the files my phone won't boot up. When I power it on it says that my device has failed a routine safety check and will not boot. I'm accustomed to my phone saying that when I boot it up, as it's done that ever since rooting it, but then it shows the LG logo and then shuts off and will not turn on again unless I take the battery out and reinsert it. I have to go through that process at least 2 or 3 times to get the phone to load up. When I got it to load up again, the top bar of my phone said I had no service, which it did not before flashing the files. I've gone back into twrp and tried re-flashing it again to no avail.
If it makes a difference there were two sets of files when I went to flash, even though I only put in one set. I renamed them according to your instructions, and there were one set that just had the file name and .img at the end (like fsg.img) and another set that started with ._ and ends with .img (like ._fsg.img)
Thanks again for taking the time, I really appreciate the help.

I tested the zip myself it works as expected.
The unlocked bootloader message has nothing to do with your issue.
What sim card are you using?
What are your apn settings?
What was the last Rom you flashed?
Are you on Oreo?

It's a nano sim from at&t, and at&t is my carrier. I doubt it's relevant, but I use a prepaid plan.
My app settings are:
Name: ATT Nextgenphone
APN: nxtgenphone
Proxy: Not set
Port: Not set
Username: Not set
Password: Not set
MMSC: http://mmsc.mobile.att.net
MMS proxy: proxy.mobile.att.net

MCC: 310
MNC: 410
Authentication type: None
APN type: default,mms,supl,hipri,fota
APN protocol: IPv4/IPv6
APN roaming protocol: IPv4/IPv6
I believe the last ROM I flashed was H91510e_VTR_CA_OP_1205.kdz
Using the DirtySanta method of rooting, I think I flashed that so I could actually root the phone and then updated to another version, possibly. I'll include my software info in case that is helpful.
I'm not on oreo, I'm running nougat
Android version: 7.0

Maybe theirs a setting in the Hidden menu that will help
using a build.prop editor (thanks @ezzony)
Change ro.build.target_operator from ATT to OPEN to bring back all the missing Modem_Settings and the ones that were also missing in regular Settings>Mobile Networks. Also reverted to stock icons in status bar.
in the dialer type > *#546368#*910#
then go to Field Test>Modem Settings>Network Mode and set to Automatic
reboot
you can also check that Volte and VoWifi are enabled from the hidden menu Modem settings
Also in Settings>Mobile Network>Network Mode be sure it's set to the top one (GSM/WCDMA/LTE auto)

I downloaded a build.prop editor and changed the build target operator setting, but I'm not sure what you mean by reverting to stock icons in status bar or how to do that. Which settings were missing in Settings>Mobile Networks?
I got into that other menu, but under field test>modem settings I can choose either engineering mode or PDP setting.
Engineering mode says "modemprotocol" in the top corner, with previous, up, down, and next buttons. Under that it says ITEM_2G: 0
[Serving Cell Information]
ARFCN: 0
FL_Timeout_v: 0
RXLEV: 0
C1: 0
C2: 0
Other pages for engineering mode are for Item HSPA:0 [HSDPA Information], Item_NM [general information], Item_3G: 0 [RRC State and Serving Cell information], Item_LTE: 0 [LTE Information]
PDP settings says ModemProtocol at the top and has options for [0] Set LG Fast Dormancy, [1] APN setting, [2' Block DataRecovery.
VoLTE and VoWifi are enabled in the hidden menu, but I can't access Settings>Mobile Network>Network Mode. I can't figure out how to check the GSM and other options. I can go to Settings>Mobile Networks and then I can go to:
Mobile data - just turns it on or off
Mobile data reminder
Review reminder settings
International data roaming
Disable 2G
Access Point Names
Search for AT&T MicroCell - When I search, none are found
I hope I'm not just throwing too much useless information for you to sift through. I'm just not entirely sure of what all is relevant.

reboot after build.prop edit
then all the options show up
the icons change on their own as a result of the build prop edit

Alright, I've done this, I've also made a few different access point names for att to try and see if any of those have better reception. Nothing's working all that great, but hopefully at least one of them works a little better than what I've been used to.
Currently I still have no reception where I'm used to having one or two bars around the house. I'm not sure if there is anything else to do without opening up the phone and replacing any parts. If there is anything else you can think of that I might try, please let me know.
Do you think that changing the screen would make any difference on reception? I did have to have mine changed shortly after rooting the phone, but I can't really imagine that could be the cause since I still do get occasional reception.
Thanks again for all of your help.

Any hardware change could easily damage the antenna or it may be completely unplugged. Check the tear down video on ifixit

I am having the same problem after following the root guide - no data. I'm on T-Mobile with an ATT phone running H91010r. I installed your modem.bat file with my dumped modem files using twrp, I changed the ATT buildprop to open, rebooted and made sure to select the first auto option. I tried dialing the secret menu number but it gives an error. Zero data. Everything else seems to be working phone. Data worked on stock phone before rooting. Please help!

it's most likely an APN problem
what do you mean the dialer code did not work ? it works on all H910
When I put in the dialer code and hit call I get "ussd code RUNNING" and then "connection problem or invalid mmi code"
I did get 4g working by reseting the Sim card, so I'm not panicking, but it seems slower than before. APN is off the t-mobile site.

are you sure you have a H910 ?
the dialer code depends on the Motherboard
*#546368#*910#
see the 910# at the end must match your phone
the Verizon LG V20 VS995 dialer code is disabled > worth reading
The unlocked LG V20 US995 would use dialer code *#546368#*995#
I'm not sure what works with the F800 version

Yes, I'm sure. AT&T version, model number LG-H910. Running rooted software version H91010r.
I have the same problem on 800l entered the menu changing the model 996 at the end, as I understand it, without twrp how can I fix the problem?
