[Q] Free Wifi hotspot app? - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a Sprint Samsung S5 that will soon be rooted, but I'm holding out until a free WiFi hotspot app shows up. I've searched for it here without any luck. Could someone please point me in the right direction?

Thank you!

or this https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=kr.core.technology.wifi.hotspot&feature=apps_topselling_free (can't see youtube vids).
but it should be a basis functionnality of the S5 (and thus from S2). I got it :
parameters > wifi access point and modem (in network connexion menu) [maybe under another name, as I'm translating from french] > enable "mobile access point".
To quickly enable this you can use the icon in the status bar and choose "wifi hotspot" :

LTE/CDMA auto (PRL)
Okay it may not be the service mode. I'm seeing that km connected to lte:14 but my speeds are a out 2mb/s does anyone have any ideas?
Bump. Anyone have an idea of what cloud have slowed my lte so much? Thanks in advance
Alright I think I figured this out and wanted to share in case anyone needs it. I guess something got screwy when I was messing with stuff but I just had to reset the modemml. To do so go to service mode then UE Setting>setting> system> stimulation> MODEM ASSERT (RESET) and that's all I needed to do. Hope this helps someone with very slow lte!

[Q] Strange wifi issues

Hey guys, been having this problem for a while but finally had enough of it!
For a start, in the wifi list in settings it doesn't show me which network I am actually connected to.

"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
In addition if i tap another wifi network which despite already previously been connected to it , it will still ask me for the password again, after which it keeps saying failed to connect, it wont let me connect to it
I have been getting around the problem by using WPS on my wifi router and "WPS Push Button" in the settings menu when I'm home to get it to connect to my home wifi as opposed to "BT OpenZone" every time, which is quite frustrating!
I'm rooted on stock rom , Build Number KOT49I.D80220h however this problem has been ongoing atleast since before the last 2 updates.
Any ideas/troubleshooting I can do??
Cheers amishra123
Tried resetting to factory defaults?
I haven't no. What's the best/easiest way to go about backing up before and restoring afterwards ?
LGBackup on the phone should suffice. Just make sure to copy the LGBackup folder to a safe location (like a PC/laptop).

[How-To]Access Data Usage

Hello guys !
In this tutorial I will teach you guys to access stock data usage without root.
Data usage is present by default in android phones but for some reason it is hidden.
So,here is the method.
1. Download the app "HiddenApp Launcher".
2. Look for Data Usage in the list and long press it.
3. It will create a shortcut of Data Usage.
4. DONE.

I don't know if we're talking about the same thing, but afaik there is nothing hidden with the Honor 5x as this is the 4th options in the settings in Stock firmware, same with all Samsung devices or small chinese brands devices... ^^LOL

We aren't talking about the same thing. I'm talking about stock data manager which is usually present in settings>more>data usage.
And obvio it isn't hidden in Samsung phones. ?
I have KlW-L21. Well after doing a bit of search i have come to know that in my VARIANT of phone THAT option is missing in traffic management app. Like seriously. ?

Are you rooted?
Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk
Hi. I am yes using as s8 port. Have always been rooted and never had this symbol. Can I remove it!?
I had that symbol on a custom ROM. It disappeared after a day, no idea what it was though, sorry!
Ok thanks. Hopefully it'll go then!!
That icon is lte connection its your mobile data at a much faster pace then 4g
Ok. If i turn off wifi the ymbol disappears but I have no data. So I have a problem with this rom maybe as only wifi works it would seem.
Ignore that last post. So this symbol is here whether I'm on wifi or 4g. It's huge. Don't like it! It's on as well as saying 4g.
Its the IMS logo. You can delete anything relating to IMS using titanium or any other program to remove it.
IMS?
Its more like your connected to a much higher quality reception
https://forum.xda-developers.com/tm...ps/mod-remove-rcs-service-volte-icon-t3362336 this link will allow you to get rid of it
For VOLTE connectivity.

Why bluetooth always start in discovery mode?

Hello, why when I start bluetooth in my Galaxy S8, it always start in discovery mode?
I really like to start bluetooth and only connect to paired device, and not else!
Also I like to don't have a notify like this to tap for stop the discovery mode, I think it's very annoying and needless!
Is there a solution or a mod, to solve this issue?
Complained that to Samsung last year and got the following response:
"This message is a built in systems notification that cannot be turned off."
And yes, my sentiments are exactly the same - completely useless and annoying.
