I have an LG G2 D800 At&t version. My phone is rooted correctly and Rom and kernel is fine and have been changed but hotspot still do not work.
Every setting from mobile networks have been compared to another phone in the same company. Every seems correct and with LQ Lite Editor the tether number has been changed in -1 and 0 as told by many videos. My hotspot used to work a couple days ago now devices connect but no internet access. Btw my phone network works perfecly fine 4g. Phone is also unlocked and is running with T-mobile antennas. Help plz.

Hey guys, I recently downgraded to R29, did the root thing, upgraded to TMO OTA DRC83 - US with the expansion (basically donut 1.6) and then loaded the HTC Hero Theme (all found on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=538456)
Now I've successfully tethered my phone's 3G using it as a wifi and I've did some searching on these forums on setting up a PAN via BT, which doesnt seem like the current build allows for it yet am i right?
Well my problem is that Tmobile 3G is pretty terribad compared to the other 2 companies (Verizon + ATT). I have the 24.99 data plan and I've heard that it allows your phone free access to T-mobile HOTSPOTs at places like Starbucks.
I recently tried to connect the MT3G to one of my wireless networks and successfuly used internet on it. Now when I tether it as a wifi and access the MT3G on my computer and still have the MT3G connected to my home wireless network (note: tethering resets the wireless so you have to reconnect), the MT3G accesses internet fine. However, my computer isn't able to go on the internet at all even though it says it's connected to the MT3G.
Is it becuase you can only have one wireless "instance" @ a time--- aka tether + wireless network = no no on MT3G?
I know the USB tethering is an option, but i'd like my girlfriend and I to both be able to use it too.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
This answer might seem vague and very minimalistic...however; the T-Mobile HotSpot Era has come to and end. You're not very likely to have "usable" service from a "HotSpot" anymore.
Hello Guys,
So I'm on Simple Mobile (on t-mobile network) and I activated mobile internet soon as I got my vibrant. Before, I used wi-fi and everything worked well. But when I enabled mobile internet (My provider gave me settings for G1 & G2. I thought that it would be good enough for my vibrant), I faced these problems
*The default web browser won't connect to internet
*Other applications seem to work fine
*I can browse android market but any downloads I make are unsuccessful.
Its just so weird that some apps are able to connect to internet and some don't. Is this a known issue or is it something with the settings I got from my provider?
any help/comments would be appreciated!
Different apps probably communicate on different ports. I know when I got mine from T-Mobile the rep had to edit my account to add the Android data plan even though I already had unlimited data he just needed to change the provisioning. The only reason I can think of is that maybe it unlocked different ports.
Hello
I have a Rogers Samsung S4 that I installed the stock Android onto it (4.3). Rom name: Google Edition S4 By JanJan xda AFG).
Everything works great except when I turn on WiFi tethering I can connect to the phone with my laptop or another device and get an IP from the phone but I cannot surf anywhere. I can surf on the phone no problem. I am connected to LTE. I also tested the SIM on another device and I can WiFi tether with no problem - so I know the SIM set up is fine.
What am I missing on this set up?
Thanks

Try ES File Explorer from the play Store.
Open ES File Manager, Got To Net Manager and try to create a hotspot from there and connect and Browse. It should work fine.
Hi guys,
i have a little problem.. 1 month ago i bought a wifi tablet and i use it also in car, so this evening i want to surf in web trought it using Wi-Fi Hotspot of my LG G2 and sorprise, the tablet is connected to the smartphone hotspot but don't get internet connection so i cannont navigate! So try Tethering Bluetooth but it was the same!
I thought that problem was about the tablet, but using another smartphone in hotspot mode the tablet connect and can navigate
I used a lot of time the wifi Hotspot in my LG G2 and it has always worked. The only thing that i made to my LG G" is that 2 month ago i made the ROOT, and since then i have not tried the hotspot or tethering.
So , what can i do to reuse the hotspot?
Thanks to all in advance
P.S. i have the LG G2 model D802

Did you JUST root, or did you also install a custom ROM? If you can't figure it out, you could try Open Garden. It's not terrible, but quite a few apps won't see the tablet as online unfortunately. Most work.
Yes i just root and i have a stock rom..
Hey all,
So I have UDP with Verizon. Got my phone the other day and activated it before I inserted my VZW sim card. Tethering worked fine until today (after Droid-Life posted about it), and now it will work for a few minutes and then I lose internet connectivity on both the phone and hotspot.
To get around this with my previous Moto X 2013, I used the wifi tethering apk from here: https://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/ and then only allow one device at a time to connect. This app doesn't seem to work with Android L (or I can't get the settings right).
Is there anything else I can try? Or is there any way to limit devices with the stock tethering?
(edit)
Other info:
Phone is unlocked.
TWRP installed (phone tethered fine after TWRP installed)
Phone is rooted (same as above)
I installed Xposed today, started having issues. Uninstalled Xposed, still have tethering issue.
(edit2)
Wife's phone, a rooted VZW Samsung GS4 is also being flaky with wifi tethering. I'm guessing that it isn't my device tonight...

I have a similar issue but not quite the same. I am also on UDP vzw and the behavior that I get is that the hotspot connection to the Internet is barely usable at all. Some pages load, sometimes but often they timeout. But with all of this the connectivity on the handset itself is unaffected. I'm going to try a usb tether on my Mac with the HoRNDIS package soon to see how the speeds compare. Maybe it's just the wifi tether and sub will be okay?
There have been some that are specifically noticing DNS issues. Maybe that's where the root of the problem is.

Ever since I found out that VZW allows you to add the tethering package to your UDP line and not mess anything up, I bought it and have experienced zero issues. Before that, every few days I would have some bad DNS issues where google would work, but nothing else would. Now my phone is my ISP and I've had no issues.
My (current) network setup: phone (wifi tether) -> bridge computer (internet sharing) -> router (Asus AC66U) -> wired/wireless network.
I haven't tried the bridge computer as an actual network bridge as that caused some flakiness before... but that was when I wasn't paying for tethering. Eventually I'd like to use my phone as a 4g modem that is directly hooked up to my router.
