What's up guys. (i'm just sharing my way of doing this, i'm not taking credit)
- Myself and a friend (@ teg50886 twitter) figured out a way to get the wifi hotspot working.
- I've only tested this on Sprint, they have unlimited LTE here where I live. So yeaaaa .....
^^ YOU MUST HAVE ROOT ^^
@jcase fixed all that for us here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/orig-development/root-stump-root-lg-g3-sprint-verizon-t2850906
* Directions:
1. Download this app from Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.snclab.wifitetherrouter&hl=en
(his email is listed on GP [email protected]) So, Thank Him and Buy his app. I'ts only $2.50
2. Go to "Configure Wifi Router"
3. Go to "Interface" and select first option "wlan0"
4. Go to "Method" and select second option "Android 4.2+"
5. That is it. Easy as Pie.
Thanks for the info. It worked perfectly on my Sprint LG G3 following the instructions you posted.

WiFi hotspot works perfectly out of the box for me... I'm in the UK with the 4G EE network.
Is it somehow limited or blocked or other countries/operators?

Sprint charges for hotspot and does not offer unlimited. Just about all U.S. carriers charge for hotspot.
Confirmed working on 3 UK! Thanks for the tip bro!
Works fine on AT&T
FYI, new Verizon plans do not charge for hotspot. So the stock hotspot app on my Verizon G3 works fine. AT&T charges (in addition to limiting data, which is exactly what Verizon got smacked down by the FCC for...)
(I have both an AT&T G3 and a Verizon G3.)
Confirmed working on sprint 990, thanks for the find

If you have the unlimited data package on 3 UK (like I do) they now only let you tether 100mb's of data, this app/settings bypass that ^_^

I'm still on on my unlimited Verizon plan, would love to get Hotspot working.
So I can install this app, follow the instructions, turn on my hotspot...and I shouldn't be charged?
thanks
dmz working?

Unfortunately it doesn't, I'm in the same situation.
Just hopefully waiting for someone to mod it to work.

I have a few buddies who have the One Plus One and claim to have unlimited native tether without tripping any kind of notice to their mobile provider.
Will the Moto X Pure Edition have the ability to do this? Or will it have to be rooted for this to happen? I currently use the Wifi Tether Router app on a Rooted S6 Edge and it works great.
If you're buying a SIM free device, why would Moto tell anyone what you're up to?
Ahhh I always thought that Mobile providers could tell?

If they look close enough they can tell. Some have basic flags set up to alert them but they are easy to bypass.

I was reading through the 2014 Moto X threads where people were discussing how to edit their build.prop scripts so that native tethering would not be detected.
I just met up with my buddy today who has a One Plus One and he showed me his native tethering app and it worked great...

CDMA doesn't even exist outside of the US, so I never give it any thought whatsoever. I said SIM free because that's how the device is being sold, without contract.

go to questions and answers,look for my thread.
Yes.
Yeah, but like many other phones, HTC One M9...sometimes messing with different Roms/development breaks VoLTE...so when you are talking on the phone...no more data.
So careful with Verizon...only time will tell I guess...let's hope it is a go though no matter what you do to it.
I'm talking about stock rom

If anyone can get it done for a business account let me know. The workaround for personal accounts won't work for me, and Verizon is saying they won't turn itbon because they don't recognize my device as one of theirs.
Worked for me with my N6 sim in the phone & WiFi off
Works for me. Add it to your line on Verizon's website.

I'm confused, is it working or is it not working? Why is it apparently works for some and doesn't work for others? Did you enable advanced calling feature via your profile?

Alright, so you actually had to enable it on the VZW website first... Now it works!

Yeah, it works. Never knew you had to manually add the "Advanced Calling" feature...
BTW, VZW actually had the decency to allow adding the feature even though it was a "Non-VZW" device.
It works for me. Just checked made a call and browsed some websites. I already had advanced calling enabled

Basically I want to root and use the Hotspot function without officially going through sprint.
Will Sprint throttle my Hotspot uses if they dont really know that I'm using it?
Thanks

On a side note, my hotspot works.... Randomly
Everything stock. I didn't pay for it or ask for it.
Will I get charged for using it even tho I didn't subscribe to it? Thanks

Nevermind the question for the s8 plus I figured it out, but is it normally this slow? Connected device is slow but main phone is normal speeds. 30 mbps
