I had the same issue, I ended up installing GoldenEye ROM which is stock i9505 running on a i337. Basically no carrier branding/bloat and it enables stock tethering
I tried foxfi as well and it never worked =\

I am using the paid version of pdanet which has foxfi. The trial worked so I bought it. I am stock and no root yet. Download pdanet from June fabrics.

The app "ES File Explorer" ( https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.estrongs.android.pop&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5lc3Ryb25ncy5hbmRyb2lkLnBvcCJd ) has a great feature that allows you to tether other devices...and works on stock unrooted so would assume it works on rooted devices.
Launch the app ES File Explorer > tools > net manager > Create a hotspot network
That's it.
Thanks guys I'm in hotel room now. I'll try them all.

How did you install PdaNet+ as AT&T has it blocked in the Play store?

I just got my brand new S4 and I already had FoxFi with the key on my S2 Skyrocket... I was about to install FoxFi and try it out on my S4 but wanted to know what type of connection worked for you using the Pdanet version... did you try the wifi option or usb/bluetooth? And did you try the FoxFi version first or you went straight with the Pdanet version?
Thanks!

Pdanet includes foxfi now. I downloaded that version from June fabrics and bought the foxfi key to give it the unlimited license. The key is in the App Store. I only tested with wifi hotspot as I have easy tether which does USB.. BT tethering is to slow for me to bother. I am rooted now and probably switching to Goldeneye so I probably won't need any tether tools.

Gotcha! I thought the Google Play warning message that PdaNet+ was not compatible with the galaxy s4 model actually had some truth behind it in that it really was not compatible and it would mess something up on the phone.
So Google Plays' warning message is just so that we won't install it... tricky!!! hahahaha!
Thanks!

ES File Explorer doesn't work. I get the error message: "Mobile data is not available or invalid SIM"
I'm not rooted and have the recent OTA update.
[NATIVE WIFI HOTSPOT]
REMEMBER TO DONATE TO THE DEVELOPER WHO MADE THIS POSSIBLE @miked63017, IF YOU CAN'T AFFORD IT ATLEAST SEND HIM A THANK YOU.
Thanks to @miked63017 CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD FLASHABLE ZIP
After you download the zip place it on the main folder of your !!! INTERNAL !!! sd card.
FLash the Zip in custom recovery,, I can confirm this recovery works well
If you update PRL you will need to reflash the zip again
After reboot your native hotspot should work
[BLUETOOTH]
I can confirm Bluetooth tethering works with Foxfi/PDAnet but your limited to around 1.4 mbps, download 'Foxfi for sprint' from the playstore, download pdanet for your computer and set it up. Turn on Bluetooth dun in foxfi, right mouse click on pdanet icon on start bar in windows and select 'connect internet Bluetooth'
[WIRED TETHERING]
Tethering via cable works with Foxfi as well at Full Speed(you must have pdanet installed on your computer as well
[WIFI WIRELESS HOTSPOT] [Alternative Method] requires no system mod just root.
Download 'WiFi Tether Router' from play store (COSTS 2.99 BUT WELL WORTH IT)
Use these settings
"Originally Posted by Vwracer69
Wifi Tether Router worked for me with a sprint S5 with the following settings.
WHEN YOU FIRST CONFIGURE THE APP IT WILL WARN YOU ABOUT ANDROID 4.3/4.4 DO WHAT THE WARNING SAYS. IF YOU MISS THIS STEP YOU MUST UNINSTALL AND REINSTALL THE APP.
For Samsung Galaxy S5 using this config
Interface wlan0
Method 3 - HostApd
Encryption wpa2-psk
Channel 1
Drivers nl80211
"HostApd Patch" <- UNCHECKED
"No Firmware Reload" <- UNCHECKED
(IMPORTANT) Must have wifi turned on but not connected to a network when your first start the tethering app and enable hotspot
If it doesn't work for you then troubleshoot here at the original thread

I have tried searching through list of processes in TiBu and freezing a few to no avail, has anyone come across anything interesting. I think we need to figure out what app does the provisioning first. It seems like we could learn this from a few recently released Sprint phones that have a working hotspot mod..

I have tried everything to no avail. Please tell me exactly how you got it to work on your Sprint GS5. Thanks
Have you bought the app "wifi tether router", some people just downloaded it off the internet and couldn't get it to work(which you shouldn't do), but the current play store version works so buy it and support the dev, also did you disable what the warning told you to disable when you first set up hotspot app, if not uninstall it and start over, and also you must have regular WiFi turned on on your phone and left on but not connected to any networks before you open hotspot router app

Im guessing the days of freezing one app and hotspot works are behind us.
Posted this in other thread too:
To get the native hotspot working, you need to:
update carriers set type="default,mms,dun" where apn="n.ispsn";
in the following file:
/data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/telephony.db
This is what worked for me on Sprint North America. Just got it working today, was trying all the known tricks including rebuilding framework-res.apk with no luck. Be advised however I first used a sqlite app from the market and it added a space between mms and dun which did not work. I installed the sqlite3 binary and did that SQL command from adb shell. Can do more of a walk through if needed, let me know. I also did a few other things, and this is what I am assuming finally did the trick, if it does not work for you please let me know too

I am also new to Sprint, is it normal for the hotspot to cutoff when you answer a phone call? Never had that on verizon so was wondering.
The wife wants the hotspot on her s5 now too, going to have to root it first but made a flashable zip to unlock the hotspot entitlement thing in the meantime. Need to have root and flash this from recovery. I have tested this on my phone where I have already unlocked it manually, and I plan on testing it on my wife's, once she charges it and I root it. Please test and let me know, I will try to update it if anybody has any suggestions.
**UPDATE**
Hotspot is now working on my wifes Sprint GS5
**UPDATE 2***
Removed zip from this thread, go here for the latest http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2727127
Doing that since I have made some updates its easier to manage in one spot.
For what its worth, I am only concerned with the wifi hotspot, but there are settings in the settings.db to enable bluetooth and usb tethering as well. I have not tested as I don't have a need for them, but if anybody is interested I can dig them up and add them to the zip for testing. Let me know...

So i have a Verizon S5 rooted, stock rom. However, i use T-Mobile service on the phone as it is unlocked. Since i use T-Mobile on this phone i can't use the Isis app that's pre-installed the device. If anyone can steer me in the direction of the com.isis.mclient.t mobile.activity apk that would be greatly appreciated! I've found a at&t apk that installed perfectly but could't go any further because i don't have att sim. If any has the tmobile apk that'd be awesome!
What about Google Wallet? Or do you specifically want Isis?

Sofar I've far I have tested the modded APK on ;
AT&T Galaxy S4 on both Android 4.4.4 and 5.0
AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 3 on Android 5.0
At&T Samsung Galaxy S5 on 4.4.2
AT&T Note 3 here and i can say it works and is much better than the last workaround i tried. Basically after using the tether I had to restart the phone to reenable wifi. :laugh:
Edit: Spoke too soon. When I turn off the hotspot wifi comes back on and connects. However, the occasional web page will refuse to load. Will only load 3/4 of the way unless I leave it for like 2 minutes. Pages with embedded video don't load within that time period at all. But youtube embeds work as does the app. Restarting the phone fixes everything.
At least it is progress in my case! Using an app before would cause wifi to show as toggeled on, but refused to connect or turn off.
Hello guys I'm new to the android devices I tried to install this apk file but it just tells me that it is not installed is their another app that I need to get this to work I just rooted my note 3 yesterday and upgraded to the lollipop thanks in advance
WaNam xposed for lollipop that's how.
Thanks for this
Galaxy Note 3 (9000A) on CricKet network running 4.4.2. Towelrooted months ago and TouchWiz recently began crashing, so I finally did a factory reset. Lost ability to hotspot tether using FoxFi/PdaNet. Did the reset change some settings? If so, how do I change them back? Perhaps someone more experienced could walk me through the apk change or point me to a "____ for Idiots" type tutorial.
Anyone try this on OC2?

If you are rooted, use Wanam Xposed & MotoTether. I use this method on Cricket. Then just use the native tether on phone.

I spent almost 2 hrs based on OPs steps but it kept saying "TetheringProvision.apk failed" or something after each reboot and then I almost gave up.
Luckily I saw your post that we should delete the ARM folder so I thought of giving it a last try...just in case you know.
And BOOM... after deleting the ARM folder and rebooting again, no error and then when I went to settings to enable HotSpot, it enabled flawless...lol
OP, can you pls add this simple step i.e. delete TetheringProvision/ARM folder before rebooting so everyone gets 100% success in this...???
Anyway, thanks a lot OP for this or else nothing else matters...
Will Att still see you tethering without the correct plan?

I used supersume pro, gave me trouble doing it so I had to remove some of the kingroot files manually. seems to be working, super su working. as for the apk provision files, no joy, seems something is different in 5.0.1 so i went with wifi tether router and that works just fine. finally, its been a long road to get here...

Hey guys, just wondering what everyone is doing as far as a tethering option now that foxfi isn't working.
I read something about a temporary root. Would this allow tethering again as long as I don't restart the phone?
