so after researching i found how to get tmobile wifi tethering to work on stock based rooted rom using sql editor and changing a value in com.android.providers.settings. but after reboot it reverts back to the original value. and makes me have to change the value on every boot.
anyone know how to make this value stick??

please let the rest of us know how you got this to work.
I tried messaging him about a week ago and no response

Seems like I found it! It's the tether_dun_required, changed from 1 to 0, under global. I could get the devices connected using the built-in hotspot but they didn't have access to the internet until I changed this. I rebooted my phone and the value changed back to 1.
Fellow xda members if you find a way around the T-Mobile upsell page please let us know. I got the upsell page in a week and a half after using about 46gb of tethering.

add
ro.ril.hsxpa=2 (1 if in US)
ro.ril.gprsclass=12 (11 if in US)
and this will increase your dl and ul speed
to your build.prop file in /system/ all you need is notepad++ to edit the build.prop and then use
adb remount
adb push (c:/location build.prop /system/
adb shell reboot
I have attached my own build.prop
Credit to Cyanogen, I researched his build.prop cheers dude
good luck

Call *#*#4636#*#*
Then Phone Info.
Then select "Wdmca only"

Do you need an updated sim card from O2? Here in the states, older sim cards will not enable 3g even if the phone works otherwise.
mmmmhhhh, that's something I hadn't even considered...anyone else think this is a possibility?

How old is the sim card? Give O2 a call and see what they say. If you reach a decent rep, they should be able to tell you if you have an issue or not.
They could also tell you if your data is blocked. Do you have a data plan with them?

how about trying it on a different phone, if not then call them up to ask. Its the same here in the UK, you need an 3G activated plan to use 3G. If you have one of those ancient phone setups then it may not have been updated.
On to O2 at the moment, they're checking my SIM out, it is fairly old.....
I do have a Web Bolt On
Result.......new sim in the post, roll on real 3Gness, thanks for the replies.

ok well I rooted mytouch 4g last week and loaded Royal Glacier V 1.3. I tried to use wi-fi tethering both the one pre-installed on my phone and the open garden wifi tether but it both says my wi-fi's been block my tmobile. I am curious to know is there any way around this? I am sure someone already posted a post, but I was wondering if they could point me in the right direction. Thanks.
Change your user agent string.

Do that, and don't post questions in the development section. I believe questions should go in the questions section.
hmm I'm on cm 7 and I was still able to wi-fi tether my dell streak 7 tab just fine.. I'm on the android preferred plan.. idk if that makes any difference. I havent tried tethering it to my laptop but wifi tether to another android device is still working for me
Thats because your android tablet internet ua string is "android"...
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA App
so I attempted to my homework and so far all i got was either enhanceie.com and follow those instructions or goto internet explorer on my phone put in "about:debug" and found the UA string in my IE changed it to desktop but wifi tethering still wouldn't work
in order to enable built-in wifihotspots I changed the value of ro.mot.entitlement_check value in a .prop file from true to false
and thus this function works but here is the problem
no wifi tethering icon shown on the notification bar
though it doesn't matter I still feel flaw
BTW I know the method of adding apn to solve it
but my usim card seems blocking it so I cannot save any new apn

I changed the value but it still not working
i have only 1 APN so its default already and i restarted the phone but nothing happened
also i wonder if Atrix supported usb tethering ?
USB or Bluetooth tethering might be functioned by some apps

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.

Appreciate the work OMJ. I never installed the hotspot hack because I went straight to your badboyz rom instead.
so 10 peole that downloaded, did it work? lol geez thanks OMJ for those who didnt tell you
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.

This may be what he is talking about. Used it also on my LG G2.
Have not tested on HTC 10 though.

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.
https://sites.google.com/site/wifitetherrouter/
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).

The apns have to be modified, we used to edit the database manually, but now edit in framework-res, I'll post a zip later.
