Hi folks,
I just got this phone yesterday (LG G2) and I enjoy the wifi calling since i don't get any service in my area. I want to root my phone so i can throw some roms on there but I have two questions:
1. when I put on a custom rom, will wifi calling still work?
2. I have unlimited 4g LTE. the T-Mobile sales rep say that I have 2.5gb dedicated to tethering. Will the custom rom ignore that 2.5gb limit?
Thanks

I want to know, does wifi tethering on this rom need that extra tethering plan from at&t, or does it work with my regular data plan. Don't want to start using it and having at&t charging me double what im paying now just to use the data i have the way i want >.<

With Liberated FR008 the wifi tethering uses the phone's data connection and does not require the AT&T tethering package.
Liberated will allow you to to tether, but you might want to watch out for a notice from AT&T. If they somehow figure out you're tethering, they automatically switch you to the tethered plan.
Ok, thanks both of you. I don't think i will get the message considering I only have a 200 mb data plan, and the only place i will use the tether is my iPod touch. Plus i dont think anybody using android has gotten the message yet, just iPhone users.
I have a htc trophy verizon version, and want to have tethering work. I noticed that some customized roms have such ability, but do I still need to buy tethering plan from verizon after flashing these roms? thx.
Nop, just enable it (with a custom rom)

See my other post to you. After I installed a rom with tethering, I have yet for Verizon to detect it or ask me to add a tethering plan (they don't really offer the option to add a tethering plan to our phones anyway).
XDA,
Recently bought an AT&T S4 with hopes to unlock it and use my T-Mobile SIM in it. I've done some reading and noticed native wifi tether was removed from the rom although it was in 4.3 and below. What I need in particular is to know if there are any roms, or apps that would allow me to have unlimited wifi tethering, provided I have truly unlimited phone data?
I currently use a T-Mobile Note 4 and the rom I'm using has "unrestricted wifi tethering mod" built in. Which allows for unlimited tethering. Is there a way I could do this on the S4 through rom or app?
Appreciate it in advance.
OK i obviously have a G2 (D802) its an unlocked open variant and im on the three network with Unlimited Data and 2GB of tethering allowance.
i am running stock softwares and currently on D80220H-EUR-XX (Kit Kat) when i tether via WiFi it DOES NOT log any of the data i use so in affect i have unlimited data on tethering. i broke the screen on my G2 so for a while i had to use a blackberry and tethered from that albeit only on 3G , this also allowed me to tether via WIFI unlimited not logging any of the data i used on the 3 app telling my my allowances. the phone is now fixed.
now to my problem i have flashed D80230D (vodafones leak) and D80230B-EUR-XX (open) both of these work fine but as soon as i tether via WiFi it starts registering the data that i use and i can suddenly see my tethering allowance going down.
now i know this is what it is meant to do but im wondering what has changed and why does it not register the usage on kit kat or when i use a Blackberry. being able to use my phone tethered unlimited is saving me over £20 a month in broadband fees so ideally i would like to continue to use it.
i know i can just stick on kit kat but im due an upgrade in 5 months so if we can figure this out i might be able to continue with my unlimited tethering.
I have the old unlimited plan (VZW grandfathered plan). I want to be able to hotpot as well as get wifi calling (I am often in an area with poor coverage).
I heard you can hotspot with an unlocked S8/note etc. but most of the posts say you loose advanced/wifi calling and can only get advanced calling if you install the verizon ROM.
Been scouring the forums -- has anyone figured out how to get wifi calling and hotspot with the old VZW UDP??? I really need both!
Thanks a bunch!
I was able to use hotspot on unlocked Verizon S8 G950U phone it was in the pull-down menu, but I read all VZW phones come unlocked these days. Also, I used to be on the grandfathered plan and switched to StraightTalk Wireless which resells the Verizon Network unlimited data for $55/mo!
I have a new VZW S8 and still have my GUDP..
All i want is Wi-Fi Hotspot unlocked.. to the point where I'm thinking about starting a bounty thread..
Anyone.... Please....
Maybe this thread will help you get Hotspot working...
