So I've used root and it seems that its been done correctly. The need root apps install correctly. Ti backup works correctly, but when I try to use any of the tether apps no comp sees the wifi networks created. Any ideas?

The wifi tether app from the market should work though right? Everyone that's rooted so far seems to indicate that is the case

Rescinded. Found the apk you spoke of. Disregard females, acquire currency.

if you start the app, let your tethered device connect and go to the default vzw sign up page then cycle the radio off and on on the dx it will connect and work

Team Black Hat also has a hack that allows you to use the native hotspot app. I don't want to post the link to it, since the hack goes against the basics of morality (as their post explains.
However, if you're not worried about it, just google Team Black Hat hotspot hack or something similar.
I applied the kitkat tether fix last night and everything was running great, I was browsing from my laptop, and because everything was working great so I was NOT using the user-switcher extention.
After downloading a 2mb file today, out of nowhere I got the t-mobile upsell page. I turned on agent switcher and it works now.
I was excited about not having to use agent switcher, but I guess I have to now? I was initially excited because I thought agent switcher was no longer necessary.
On the bright side, my pages will be loaded using less data so thats good.
So is this normal? For it to be working in desktop mode and just stop, forcing me to use the agent switcher. I was not sure if this was still necessary with all the fixes and such.
Thank you
Bump, just trying to figure out if I have to use agent switcher still or if there's a way around it

Install APN back up and restore and offline Sim. Then using a root explorer move those 2 apps to system/priv-app fix set permissions for both to 777 then reboot
Now delete your apns using APN backup. Disable the ICS check. Then using offline Sim have it right the new APN for your Sim. For the right when asked. The stock APN ,from what I've read, contains hidden files to aid in tether check. I have no problems with tether nor do I use an user agent switcher. Tether on LTE.

IF IVE HELPED PLEASE HIT THANKS
Hi,
I was setting up this phone for my brother. Was surprised to see no root, roms, or unlocking as this is a really nice phone for the price.
I'm not a super gung ho android dev, but I have some reverse engineering experience so I'm gonna see if I can make some shellcode run on an apk or library with root perms and get a root shell running. No promises.
Anyway: If you want tethering, the Power Toggles app will turn on the hotspot without checking to see if you have hotspot account permissions on Boost. Set it up in the More Settings part of Android's Settings, it is the built-in Android tethering code.
Hi sorry for my English, can you explain what is the power toogle app is,thanks

You can use Power Toggles, or if hot spot is all you want you can use HotSpot Toggle. You have to add them as widgets.
Way people keep giving a options without testing first that work, the thetering not work on boost mobile

On 305SH, if you setup "Nova" Launcher and you create a shortcut, you select "Activities" and go in the list and select "Settings", and Inside "Thetering & Hotspot" :
You will have a menu to allow you tethering Bluetooth or Wifi.
It works great with 305SH (I tryed bluetooth).
Yes, with some programs tethering is active but teams are not conecting to the internet, is blockage for the operator in the case of 306 is boost mobile or sprint, someone will know how to disable this block

This didn't actually work for me. i had two "Tethering & Hotspot" options within settings but they both came up with the subscribe menu. the power toggles method however, did work.
Yes, I think we need Root access for that

foxfi works
Paid app called foxfi works for WiFi/USB tethering. Bluetooth tethering untested. Runs around $5 has a trail version with data caps for tethering. PDA net reqired on PC for USB tethering. No root required.
---------- Post added at 02:01 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:53 AM ----------
I use my aquos as a WiFi dongle for my laptop router>(WiFi)>aquos>(USB thether)>PC
I've used it spairingly as a WiFi hotspot so if boost sends you messages quarrying into how your using hotspot and why your not paying for it and any possible consequences that may occur is on you, I'm not responsible.
---------- Post added at 02:35 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:01 AM ----------
Would also like to clarify 306sh on boost mobile. Only tested on that network (obviously that model). So results may vary. Just use the Fofxi sprint app, you purchase a key to unlock paid version for regular and sprint I.e. one time buy for both versions on 1 google account=possible no root solution to free hotspot on multiple devices down the road . (I'm assuming it works with sprints but they charge overages so unless your somehow still grandfathered in to an unlimited plan I'd recommend against it) that works with boost, Straighttalk (Walmarts Tracphone plan), and virgin mobile, that I've tested, but is a hit or miss on phone models, so far only phone I've seen it work on KitKat so yay sharp for not caring about blocking app permission to hotspot toggle, don't update you might lose feature from app and have to wait till root.
Another's person can confirm that with boost Mobile and how I can do
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA Free mobile app
Tried this before I saw this thread. Got the app because I didn't realize it would be such a pain in the ass to access toggles from a phone interface compared to my Nexus 7. Anyway, set it all up, input everything correctly and ... No internet access via the hotspot. Doesn't work.
306SH on Boost
I.FIGURED SINCE I FIGURED OUT A SORT OF TETHER ID POST HERE..
On phone must download pdanet
And on tablet pdanet tablet.
Use Bluetooth option and it works.speed test on my tablet was only at about .5mbps but satisfactory for browsing.

Is that a free app and does it work after latest update, foxfi (part of pdanet) works as well. My guess is the same reason but is a paid app so this seems much more promising since its free. Someone was saying it wasn't working for them but its worked fine for me, but I have yet to get the new update that came out (only update so far), does yours work after update, if so IMA update and test my luck with foxfi. Either way thanks for the heads up. And yes I was a little shocked at the lack of development for this phone as well, sharps got it on lock down.

If you want to continue to use stock room, and need hot spot, there is a trick using the app shortcut master from the market where you just have to edit 1 line . It works on LG g2 and g3 (I used it). If anyone wants to try, I'll look for a link to the directions.

Good work. That is exactly what I was referring to. Thank you. I hadn't seen the request. I have no idea if it would work on HTC 10. But, it doesn't seem like a huge stretch that it would.

No good. Those values don't show up in shortcut master.
Anyone had any luck with this? I can't find the file that OMJ is talking about to save my life. I don't see any attachments.
I've tried editing my build.prop and I've tried editing the default xml to change the rules and enforcement to 0.
The latter DID let the hotspot start for me. Other devices can connect. But they never get network connectivity.
Can anyone help me confirm what I'm missing?
Fabio Grasso's WiFi Tether app works for me on the 10.

I can't get it to work on mine! I've achieved root, installed the app, matched all the settings up....no internet connection. It's strange, my Ipad can see the network and it says it's connected. As soon as I connect it though I lose internet connection on both devices, can't load a single web page. Did you have this issue at all or would you have any idea what would cause this? I'm at my wits end with it, and I've used this app for 2 years on my M8.

HAH. I couldn't get it to work with this app (not initially anyway). I turned to his site to check if there were settings already available to use for the HTC 10 because it couldn't auto-detect the wifi adapter name. On his site, it says HTC users need to uninstall "TetherGuard" - system app.
Did that, figured I'd reboot and try the built in tethering which now works beautifully. Got it still within my refund window for Wifi Tether Router.
So some combination of what I posted above plus UNINSTALL TETHERGUARD! And life's good now. Thanks much.

It didn't give me the option to uninstall, just disable. I did that and tweaked with a few more things and that seemed to fix it. Fingers crossed!

You can use Titanium Backup to uninstall TetherGuard since you're rooted, instead of just disabling it.
Anyone want to post the specific changes/tweaks they've done? I've done changes to build.prop and default.xml (using the various settings found all over XDA) and also disabled/removed TetherGuard, but I'm still stuck at hotspot enabling but no data connection for any connected devices (data still works for the phone while hotspot is on though).
