There was a TetheringProvision.apk I had found on the s4 forums that worked perfectly with our phone (I only tried hotspot) it'd give you the error message saying it's not on your plan but one you hit ok it pulls up. I decompiled and did some editing and replaced the original and I have no clue where it came from...

[Q] How to remove Verizon 3G Mobile Hotspot

I've seen a little about this - but couldn't find the answer.
Sorry if I'm repeating on someone else's thread.
I've got a Rooted (EC07) Continuum right now & just came from a Droid 1 (which I loved).
I can't find a way to remove the 3G Mobile Hotspot app from Verizon.
On my D1, I previously used Wireless Tether 2 & it was so awesome.
No when I open up the 3G otspot, it takes the device that is hooking up to my hotspot to a Verizon web page that requests a subscription.
I just want to use it free again, like on my D1.
Any suggestions on how I could do this?
I have already tried downloading other Wireless Teher apps apps & none of them seems to work properly.
Thanks.
I suppose you could remove the app with an explorer or Titanium Backup. I doubt it would get rid of it in the settings menu. I use open garden, and it works fine (assuming you aren't trying to connect with something that can't use ad-hoc)

Why not you guys check out wireless tether beta 7 or whatever they are onto now, and go to settings, and set it as a fascinate xD then you can actually use it as a regular network, not adhoc xP
Also, I think 3g hotspot is a part of settings.apk if I remember correctly xP so you can't really get rid of it :l

thats funny... I googled wireless tether beta7, and this post is the first hit that comes up...
here is the site for it.
http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/downloads/list
The app is built into the framework of the ROM I believe, or is tied into another piece of the ROM that can't be removed. The only way to really "remove" it is to use a launcher that allows you to hide app icons and just remove it from view.

Thanks guys.
I appreciate the info. Just got wifi tether 6.
Also you can "freeze" 3g hotspot, and anything else that's annoying you, using "Bloat Freezer", found in the market for $1.99. Or with Titanium Backup Pro (paid version) which is worth its weight in gold anyway.
that literaly does nothing except prevent the app from running and the app dosnt run in the background when your not using it. the bloat freezer is ment for apps using gps and updating weather that drains your battery.

I tried it on my galaxy s3 using t-mobile hot spot and it kept redirecting my me to sign up for the hot spot plan. However, I did use a different WiFi router app and was able to tether. I am rooted btw.
Tether did not work with my S3, but does with my G2 and current S2's Did not get a chance to try a different rom on the S3 before sale tho so not sure about that.

Probably a stupid question on XDA, but are you rooted and running custom roms on your S2s? I'm interested if anyone has tried this on stock firmware with one of thee non-root tethering apps. I would test myself but I can't remember the last time I had a phone with stock firmware.

anyone else have that issue?
i tried vpn, but it wouldn't connect and i am in over my head trying to learn on the fly at the moment

Yep I used both the s2 and s3 sucessfully.....
There is also another topic explaining another method of replacing ur apn in the general subforum of the tmobile s3
As for the s2 there is threads for apns and then for user agents
Live throws a code stating that some items may not be available but playing and netflix green light
Updates you have to dl on ur pc then transfer it to ur xbox by disc, etc storage medium
I have also changed my dns servers but I can still use tmobiles dns and do both
I use to have a full live experience until the last 360 update and now something borked....nebody have ideas? Lol
So I should have no problem using my sensation as a hotspot to power my roku box to stream Netflix to my t.v. right? Thanks!!!

WiFi tether

All the methods I've tried either don't work or no longer are available. Are there any current methods that work? AT&T tells me it would cost me $50/mo and I'd lose my unlimited data plan because tethering somehow doesn't work on unlimited data plans "square peg in a round hole" they tell me. Of course they couldn't explain why it wouldnt work nor could they explain why the tether feature is nearly double my unlimted plan cost.

on stock u can replace their wifi verification file (TetheringProvision.apk) with a hacked one "root required" or u can put practically any compatible rom on your phone and they work great. i recommend option b personally. i tried goldeneye and never looked back.
I am rooted but I'm not comfy with SS yet which is why I havent flashed a ROM yet. I used to use barnicle but I think its no longer available. So my best met is to use a costom ROM?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
ss wont break your phone as long as you dont touch your stock rom with it. i never had great success with the hacked provision file, it worked, but not great. i get ridiculous speed and stability on a rom. or u can get a saw and square that hole out to fit the peg.
I'm on a rooted, stock phone and use ES File Explorer to allow me to Wifi tether. Works perfectly for me.

With wifi off, you open ES File Explorer, then browse to Tools - Net Manager. Tap on "Create a hotspot network". It will then show you the name of the network and password. Connect to it, and you are good to go.

After you dl the tether app open root browser and go to system /app
Then you will see a tether apk file
Press and rename the. Apk to. Bak.
Then go to your download folder via root browser and look for the tether app you dl.
Press copy and then go back to system/app and paste it.
Reboot
Start the tether app and enjoy..

Native Hotspot Working

Just wanted to put this out there since I haven't seen anyone talking about it yet.
I was working with a friends ATT Note 3. I rooted it for him and then began working on modding the native hotspot. When I went to make the smali edits I saw that they were already there. So I fired up the hotspot and it worked. I am assuming this is also true if you are completely stock unrooted but didn't check first.
So if you have not rooted yet please test your hotspot and let us know the results. If you are rooted then the hotspot is definitely open.

That is odd. Maybe his account is messed up. Because he swears he never paid for the hotspot. But the mod which makes the native hotspot work on Sprint devices is already included in the rooted system, again didn't verify the non rooted system. So not sure what is up.

When you turn on your hotspot, if you get a message to call at&t, just press the home button (don't press ok). This should work for you, as it worked for me and many others. And the guy on the previous page that said "press the hinge button", he ment the home button.

For those that are having issues, try using the toggle WiFi hotspot widget https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fattin.togglewidget.hotspot
Just add the widget to your home screen and use it to turn on the hotspot, wait for the error message and hit the home button.

Tried this widget and native tethering works with ATT. No need to freeze Tethering Provision, no need for FoxFi. Just install the widget as stated by mm3th and place on your home screen. Then press it, once the "call 611" comes up, hit the home button. You can even configure it without a problem.

Confirmed. Works and is so simple to activate and configure. Changed my network name to "click here for virus"
Wifi hotspot should work out of the box if you have any mobile share plan. The only group of people who will need any type of third party mode will be those with the grandfathered unlimited. AT&T does not allow hotspot on the unlimited.

Yes FoxFi does still work. It does however get finicky and not wanna work sometimes for me. I even have to uninstall and reinstall sometimes before getting it but yes it does work. You must let foxfi install the VPN, have a pattern lock screen set, and also have "nolockscreen" typed for the hash tag or hash code, whatever its called. Even then like I said I still have problems sometimes but it's only since the latest Verizon update that I've had any issues at all. Thankfully though u can still get it working.

im on stock mje and have not had one problem with foxfi other than my hotspot closing out if there is no activity after a certain amount of time goes by. other than that it has worked flawlessly. I have the pro key as well along with some other add on that im not even sure of its purpose so I dont know if that makes a big difference.

The stock hotspot does the same thing.
I use Beans ROM which tethers fine without FoxFi (I have the paid version of FoxFi but don't even bother to install it anymore) or any other software but it does close after not using it for a while.
