No there is not, and no, if you install the MK2 hotspot mod you will brick your phone and have to odin the MK5 tar to your phone. Until someone gives a L720T to a developer that can make the mod (fgr), or if someone that has the L720T has the know how to do it. You may be able to PM fgr and see if he can walk you through the mod. Don't know how much code needs to be changed, but he stated in an earlier post that he can not make an odexed version for the L720T unless he has phone in hand.

I'm a new 720T user, so as im searching myself, i'm leading everyone to this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2621862
I have my S4 updated to OD2 with the mk5 modem rooted with cf auto root. Domestic Sim stayed unlocked after upgrade. I haven't had any issues with the domestic Sim unlock and supersu as I have read some people have had to change superuser app on OD2 for galaxy tools to work properly.
Having trouble finding information. The pinned thread the HotSpot MOD doesn't have anything about MK5.
Either you are in the wrong forum or you're confused about your ROM build. The thread you are referring it is for Sprint phones only, the previous build was MK2 and the current one is NAE.

Unless I missed something major, there was never an MK5 build on Sprint. We went from MK2 to NAE.

Ok, now that makes sense. The thread you are referring to is only for the original L720, not the triband version. I don't know if there is a separate forum for that device.

Okay thanks. Do you think Wanam Xposed mod will work without any trouble?

I unfortunately have no way to answer that. You can certainly try, but have a way to revert should your phone not boot or something. If you have a custom recovery, have a backup ready. Otherwise, have a stock ROM that you can flash via recovery or ODIN if your recovery is stock. But since I don't have your device, I can't tell you which ROMs to use.

Take a look at the information here, its a new thread:

Ok, thanks to k1mu's guide here

I was able to root my phone properly. The key reason to root the phone was no access to tethering. Details for my situation:
Samsung S4, i337, MK2, andriod 4.3 from AT&T. I unlocked it and have been using with Rogers here in Canada but the tethering gives the Mobile data not available/invalid sim error.
I researched for solutions here and on google and all solutions required root, so I rooted the phone using the guide mentioned above. After that I used the method in this link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2535141
However, since I am using non-AT&T sim, this does not work any more. Further I uninstalled all AT&T apps using ES file explorer but still no luck.
Then I figured out and tried other solutions like FoxFi, etc etc.
Then I used the framework file from the thread below which was able to turn the toggle on.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2512981&highlight=at&t
Now I can see the the tethering tuned on. I can also connect to the wifi. however, it does not connect to internet. I think I am still missing some piece. I cannot post in the thread above as it is developers section. But I am lost, there is no further solution that I could find on forum or google. My mobile data works fine, I can turn on the tehter, I can connect to the hotspot, but I cannot connect to internet. It is a phone issue for sure.
I am not sure what to do in this case. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Edit: I have tried this as well, but it did not work.

Does anyone think flashing with stock ROM will help? does it delete all system files altogether? But the only stock ROMs available are AT&T, so I do not see it helping much. Any ideas?

If there's a tethering mod for the i337m on 4.3, try using that tethering provision instead. Otherwise, you could try flashing a ROM that uses an i337m base, but you can't flash their stock firmware directly.

I have tried that tethering mod (if that means replacing the tethering.odex file in the system)
I don't know what i337m base ROM is, but if it is installing AT&T stock ROM, then won't I be in same situation again?

I337m is the Canadian S4 model, I'm saying to use a tethering method designed for that (the two you posted were for the Verizion and AT&T but not Canadian) or try a TOM based off the Canadian firmware. That way it'll have the file for your specific carrier tethering already in it.

Not the stock firmware, that won't work. I mean to try and find a ROM based off that firmware/made for i337m.

First of all I appreciate your patience in these replies and helping me out.
Here is my next query.
I found this custom ROM based on i337m
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2313469
This post recommended this ROM
http://www.droidviews.com/best-custom-roms-for-att-samsung-galaxy-s4-sgh-i337/
but they also said I need to make sure that the baseband matches. I have MK2. Should I flash that or should I just go ahead and install the ROM as no such info is mentioned in the XDA thread. Also, are there any other changes I should make before installing this new ROM using safestrap?
please let me know

You'll have to look in the All Things MK2 and NB1 thread for install instructions and if it needs a modified updater-script for Safestrap. Also, the latest version is a 4.4.2 ROM so you'll either need to update to KitKat, use the KitKat Magic Toolkit, or use an older version of Goldeneye.

That was useless, there is no hotspot mod currently available for the NG2 update. All the people that made this mod before have moved on to new phones. Your options are to download Xposed framework and use wanum to open the hotspot, or install a wifi tether app from the play store. If someone knows "fgr", maybe they can convince him to make a mod for NG2 since he was the one that made the MK2 and NAE mod.

He no longer has an Android phone. Would do better with asking "crawrj" if you know him. Has anyone tried to see if the NAE one works?

You need to replace a something.db file. I can't remember the name of the file. I found the answer in the Q&A section on the Everything L720t thread.
