Once a deodexed rom is released it will be easier to test the hotspot mod out. Because not having the phone would require someone else that can Odex the files and test. This would be a pain because you would have to do that for each test. For now I am curious about something though. Is there anyone out there with the S5 that is paying for the hotspot? If so can you configure it and connect to it at least once, if you haven't already, and send me your services.jar and services.odex? You will probably need to be rooted in order to get to the files. Don't worry there won't be any sensitive information in the files.
I tried the mod you posted, same as was done on Note 2. Not sure if it worked or not as the build had some data issues, so couldnt comnect to test. It compiled and booted fine with the line deletion at least. Was easy enough to find
Gettin frustrated with getting the deodexed working to move on. Have some issues ive never seen before. Just Play store, Hangouts and Google Calendar sync FC's. Think its a GmsCore issue

Crawj,
I used the same wifi tether app that works on Note 2 4.3 and did it without any special tricks.

Thanks for that! But you know how I am It is just my nature to use the native app. So if it can work that is best IMO. That way when I finally do get the 5 it is already waiting for me :victory:
OH and I don't believe I have talked to you since you became a moderator so congratulations on that. Well deserved!

Yeah I saw that. Thanks for sharing. I wanted this one to be specifically for getting the services files from someone that is paying for the service. So that is why I created a separate thread.

Thank you. Could you Odex your hotspot mod and try it with either your rom or stock to see if it works? If it works on Odex then you know it will work on deodexed once it is ready.
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.
Edit: miked63017 beat me to it. Here's his flashable zip: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=52089811&postcount=9

His zip is admittedly different than the zip I made, mine runs a sqlite command in place, while his copies a premade db into place. Either way, lets get some feedback on how this thing is working...

Yeah but it is using the mod that you discovered. So you should be credited. And my other point is that your zip only adds the portion of the mod that is required. His replaces the entire db file which could cause issues.

It's not a big problem. I knew your zip was different. My only point is that Mike published the method of unlocking the hotspot first. So he should have been credited for finding the fix. That's it. You could have kept your zip alive if you wanted to. Although I still believe his install is safer.

Because his zip only does a sql update for the specific change that is required. You're zip replaces the entire db file. Nothing may ever come of that. But if a user had a db file which had different contents than the one you provide they would lose those changes. There is also a very slight possibility that permissions on that file could get corrupted when replacing it. Highly unlikely though. I'd be more concerned about the first possibility.

there's a couple problems with this. What theme are you using. If your using a theme your gonna have to contact that dev and ask him. If your just using the rom I'm the man to talk to.
if I do this for you then others are going to want it done then it will be time consuming. And I won't be able to work in my other projects. However I wrote a how-to on changing the sprint branding. You can always follow those instructions.

just keep trying until you get it to work, you will feel awesome and you may learn a thing or two about android. there are a pretty limited number of ways to mess up such a small change so just do a little reading and you'll figure it out.

+1 to this. I recently started using a theme that I wanted tweaked in one little way. I posted something in the thread and got no response and so started screwing around with it myself. It took a while (and multiple screw ups) but I eventually got it to do what I wanted. However, I learned a ton in the process that made me come up with new and improved ways I might screw up... I mean improve... my phone.
By the way, I think the key to doing this with confidence is doing a full "nandroid" backup (i.e. a backup in clockwork). As long as you do this before messing with anything on the phone, you can pretty much always restore the backup and be right where you were. I got myself stuck a couple times and this saved me.

Strings.xml after you decompile framework-res.apk zz_roaming text you'll see it probably says acs already. Pull the framework res.apk decompile in apk manager, then navigate to projects/framework-res.apk/res/values/strings.xml. Scroll down towards the bottom and search for zz_roaming_. Note in apk manager when you recompile and it asks is this a system app choose y. Then it asks to preserve signature as well as files choose yes thenin apk manager you'll now have a keep folder. Delete the file named resources.arsc and then goto place here for modding folder. You'll see unsigned-framework-res.apk in there rename that to framework-res.

Turn usb debugging on in settings applications development. Hook your usb cable open a command prompt and in the terminal cd to the directory with the modded framework and type adb push framework-res.apk system/framework/ and then hit enter. This requires you have the android sdk installed and the tools in your path if u you have trouble with that then get a theme that works on your rom open the theme with a zip program and delete everything inside the system folder except the folder framework. Next open the framework folder and delete both framework-res.apk and twframework.apk. Next drag and drop your framework-res.apk into that framework folder close the zip and flash

Well, after browsing around the general and q + a sections a lot, I noticed that there are quite a few threads about the Wireless Tether App not working on CM7 and other AOSP roms. I was confused about that, because the Wireless Tether app has always worked for me on CM7 and any other AOSP roms. Some people prefer the native tethering feature, but I prefer wireless tether because it allows 4g tethering, and various other reasons (acess control, it shows who's connected and lets me control that. Shows the download and upload totals, allows me to adjust transmit power, etc etc). Well, teh roxxorz and I began trying to figure out why it was working on my phone, and not anyone elses. I discovered that wireless tether started working for me on CM7 and AOSP right after I had used vaelpak's rom, which required a custom version of wireless tether. I also discovered that I had a folder on my sd card, called android.tether, which contained a binary file in it. Teh roxxorz discovered that he did not have that folder on his sd card. So just to test it out, I gave him the .bin file, and he created an android.tether folder on his sd card, and put the .bin file in it. He then uninstalled the wireless tether he had installed on his phone (we had been testing), and rebooted. He then installed vaelpak's custom version of wireless tether, and low and behold it started working. So I think I got that folder and .bin file from using the vaelpak version, but I'm not sure. Either way, I'll load up the vaelpak version of wireless tether, and the .bin file, and also teh roxxorz's instrucitons on what he did exactly. Hopefully it will work for any of you who are interested in getting wireless tether to work instead of the native app.
Also, you shouldn't need the custom vaelpak version of wireless tether, as it works fine for me with the version from the market. I think it's the .bin file on the sd card that's more important.
Just Download the BINfile.zip file that is attatched below and extract the actual .bin file out of it. That is the binary file you need to use.
teh roxxorz's instructions:
1. Created android.tether folder on root of sdcard [case sensitive]
2. Placed the binary file inside android.tether folder
3. Uninstall current app of wireless tether
4. Rebooted phone [since it messes up your wifi when it doesn't work]
5. Install the vaelpak modified tether you gave me
6. Open and run app; no problems, started successfully
Very nice write up k2buckley. I couldn't have said it any better. And as you do, I hope this works for many others.
NOTE! > If you're having trouble renaming the .bin file from the OP, on the second page of this thread I uploaded a zip file where you just need to extract the .bin file, and place inside the android.tether folder.
See page 16, post #159 for how to set up a proxy server if you have snail-like 4G speeds while tethering.

I have actually pushed this to my device and verified its working. I did this by "stop"ing the Android runtime, using the internal "SD" with adb push and some for loops then an adb reboot. I will not provide more detailed instructions.
I DO NOT RECOMMEND YOU TRY UNLESS YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING!
I hope other ROM developers can use this as a base once we have a safe way to restore soft bricks.

-_- then extract the apps and use a file explorer to push them to /system, adb isnt the only way...but I really think for you the easiest way is to return to stock...theres a thread in the dev section...just requires a couple clicks of the mouse

you mean it's too hard to do "adb push [location of file (newb tip: you can even drag the file into the terminal/cmd window and it'll automatically place the file location!!)] /system"

You can te download all the apps from samsung hub too. Deleting chat on will break svoice. Only way to get it back is to Odin or Kies

I'm definitely new in the game but just wanted to clarify this statement. I disabled a bunch of the bloatware apps prior to rooting my S4 today. The only app I deleted using Rom Toolbox Lite was ChatOn before deciding it wasn't a good idea to remove anything instead of just leaving all the bloatware disabled.
I went back and re-installed ChatOn and ChatOn Voice & Video Chat through Google Play / Market and S Voice seems to be working just fine. I saw another thread that said uninstalling/deleting ChatOn would affect S Voice but I'm not seeing this effect. Was re-installing ChatOn through Google Play store vs Odin or Kies a waste of time?
Still learning here, any feedback is appreciated.
Edit: I ended up just doing recovery through Kies to ensure the stock apps were restored appropriately and made sure not to disable ChatOn this time. Just curious why S-Voice worked for me after having rooted and deleted ChatOn but others had issues with this.
Can anyone please upload My Magazine 1.0.0" & "My Magazine - Here and now 1.1.0" apk files? with the help of some others here I have narrowed my problems with the stock email app force closing upon clearing a notification or attempting to open the app, down to being caused by my having removed these apps thinking they were just bloat. However, it seems they are being called by the email app and are the source of my problem. Thanks to whomever comes to the rescue!
looking at mine i see Magazines.apk, MagazinesHome.apk but not what you listed.
i was looking in system/app
I think that's them, since I deleted them I don't have anything to reference so I could have the name off a bit. If you don't mind please upload?
Thanks

lol, I just did the same thing. I accidently removed mymagazine stuff and getting stock email app FC. So, I had to remove both email and exchange app, too. However, I know what was the problem now, can you upload secemail.apk and exchange.apk (I can't remember the name exactly) from Note 3 for me?
I will really appreciate.

Hi Folks:
Grateful return to Android OS....I like to tinker and had a tablet I learn some skills on. Got rid of APPLE GARBAGE never again.
Re-learning Android skills.
So, I like some others removed MyMagazine and that POS Flipboard among **many** items...
All is very well on my sleek and clean Note 3...love it!
BUT I have the same email notification crash as everyone here
2 questions:
1) How do I load these files again? I forgot!! (embarassing!!). Odin?
2) If I load the 2 securemail and 2 exchange files, do I have to re-load the MYMagazine file again as well? I would really prefer NOT TO if I don't have to. I really detest and resent manufacturers putting their junk onto phones in the first place...
Hell, I remove most Google Garbage as well...and Verizon's stuff too.
Never had a problem until now.
Thanks for your time and assistance!

Firstly, sorry for not being able to link yet. Which is why copy paste:
"Installing apps on Android is relatively straightforward with the Android Market. You search for an app, select it and click install. However, there are often times when you may want to install a newly released app or an app that is not available in the Android Market. In these cases you will usually have to manually download and install an .apk file. An .apk file behaves in a similar manner to a “.exe” file on Windows, you need to copy it to your device and run it. Here are some ways that you can manually install an application without going through the market."
(-source: maketecheasier.com/install-applications-without-the-market/)
"WHAT IS AN ODEX FILE?
In Android file system, applications come in packages with the extension .apk. These application packages, or APKs contain certain .odex files whose supposed function is to save space. These ‘odex’ files are actually collections of parts of an application that are optimized before booting. Doing so speeds up the boot process, as it preloads part of an application. On the other hand, it also makes hacking those applications difficult because a part of the coding has already been extracted to another location before execution."
