One of my buddies mentioned to me that the old Samsung Focus WP7 phone had the ability to unlock Bluetooth Internet tethering. I really would like to be able to share my 4G connection on my ATIV S Neo with my Galaxy S4, mostly because Google Glass is kind of useless with Windows Phone and I don't want to switch back to my S4 as my main phone.
Has anyone figured how to bypass the check that verifies whether or not Internet Sharing is turned on with your plan?

Some people have reported that switching csc codes worked on the normal Ativ S, but I don't know if that works on the NEO.

I read threads here that some tabs are locked and some are not. So how do people with locked tabs get their tabs unlocked? is it only can be done by samsung itself.
Thanks
What are you wanting to unlock it for?
Doesn't unlocking allow for rooting? From the few rooting guides I've come across, the unlocked ones can be rooted whereas the locked ones can't. For me the only thing I need to root for it to do the adhoc wpa supplicant fix.

Are you having any problem connecting to adhoc wifi? i did nothing to the tab and still i can see the adhoc wifi source and can use it.

Thats unlikely. Android in general has a problem with adhoc wifi. What device do you have or is your tab connecting to?
In my case i have a Treo Pro with wmwifirouter and since my Tab does not see theadhoc network it creates, i use bluetooth tethering instead.
Believe me its working with iphone i have used outside of home maybe tab is compatible with iphone? I haven't tried the bluetooth tethering i will check that now and will post you.
You can still root with a locked boot loader... See here
thanks for the info but my first question is still open that how to unlock tab if it is locked
But why are you wanting it unlocked? As far as I know there isn't a way

WiFi tether works fine with my iPhone as well.

Are you using the built-in iPhone wifi tethering feature or a jailbroken tethering app?
jailbroken iPhone, app name is mywi
Locked bootloader
Near as I can tell, only Samsung has the encryption keys to allow unlocking the bootloader. It doesn't seem to be necessary though, I got my locked tablet rooted so, I wouldn't worry too much about it.
kevin i wanted to know just because the first tab i got was locked the replacement i got is unlocked so i just want to make sure it is not a returned item. I thought someone own it before and unlock it and sent back to bb or samsung for some reason. It's good to know that there is no way someone can unlock it and in that case the one i have is new.
Ive been tossing the idea around on whether or not its something to pursue. In my mind it seems somewhat feasible. I currently have a Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0 (which from what I can tell is basically a Samsung Galaxy S without a data plan through a carrier) and it is rooted. There are even start-up processes and services for the dial pad and phone (even though its only supposed to me a glorified MP3 player). So with that being said here is my idea...
The original Amazon Kindles came with free 3g connectivity right out of the box (no service plan). I am thinking maybe there would be a way to set up the Galaxy to connect to the Kindles free 3g internet. Maybe mock a Kindle ID to the Galaxy. Even if you did something along the lines of running a Kindle ROM in a VirtualBox type app on the Galaxy for server authentication.
What do you guys think????
I am new to the Android world but not new to computers or hacking (by hacking I dont mean black hat. I mean modifying things to suit your needs ie. rooting).
The Galaxy Players don't actually have a cellular baseband. The package's position on the board isn't populated. Thus, it's completely impossible for the Galaxy Player to connect to a cellular network.
The reason the phone and dialer bits are still present is they are core to Android and can't be removed easily.
ok what about tethering the kidles 3g to wifi???
The Kindle's 3G is only usable to download books. The connection is very restricted, and you really can't do anything with it. Obviously, if the operator detects excessive traffic on an account only intended to download eBooks, your access would be killed pretty fast.

Hi
I introduce myself as a brand new G2 owner coming from mega-rooting my S2 E4GT.
In playing with the phone, I came across the ATT Smart wifi app, which perhaps sounds fancier than it really is.
Since we are on a limited data plan, we all know to connect to our wifi network as soon as we get home. The limited description of this app, makes it sound like it will connect me to my home network as soon as it detects it. Fine. But does that mean that it will keep scanning for wifi all day until it finds my network? Or do I have a way to limit that somehow?
Thanks for the help
Hi.
Firstly I want to put aside all warning about if it is legal or so, focus on technical issue.
I am not new if it comes to networking, that's why I want to expand my knowledge.
Just got new Samsung Galaxy S3 mini, and wanted to try tethering with my sim card.
Got message on web browser in PC and mobile as well:
"Are you using your phone as a modem or personal hotspot?
Reference SIM002
Using your phone as a modem and connecting it to other devices through WiFi or USB to get onto the internet (also called 'tethering'), is not what the plan you're on was designed for. If you would like to speak to someone about tethering options available to you, please call 333 free from your Three phone.
In the meantime if you want to get your phone back to browsing the internet you'll need to turn it off, allow it to reset itself for a few moments, and then turn it on again.
If you're looking for a Mobile Broadband connection, you'll get a better, cheaper and faster experience on one of our Mobile Broadband tariffs or devices. Just go to your nearest 3Store."
I found some threads here on our forum, but no answer how does it work.
As in my phone (Samsung Galaxy S4 Relay) which is rooted it working fine.
Some people say network operator is doing Deep Packet Inspection - maybe, but it looks like rooted device appear for them as not hotspot and not rooted as hotpost.
Am I right? Is rooted phone doing it somehow smarted (e.g. making itself proper router with his DNS point and gate ?)
As the title states, I am looking for a way to use the "wifi sharing" feature that the Galaxy S7 and S7E's come with. Verizon appears to have not liked the idea of us using our phones as wifi repeaters, to tether a wifi signal from one to another. To be clear, I am not discussing a mobile Hotspot to tether your Mobile Data to another device, I am talking about sending a wifi connection from my S7 to another device.
Does anyone havery a work around? I am currently rooted and running stang5litre's V2 ROM. Thanks in advance.
Would likely require a framework edit or replacement (unlikely it's an easy swap) from another carriers rom. There's a tiny chance it's a system.prop or build.prop property that you could edit with a root file editor but I doubt it :/ Out of curiosity what on earth is your usecase for this? I ask this as a genuine question as someone in IT who uses hot spot all the time and I believe Sterling's rom has that enabled on non-tethered plans?
I would also like to know this information.
Could you explain "wifi sharing" a little better?
I have had Samsung phones for a while and have never seen that feature.
Wifi is either connected to a hotspot / router or peer to peer adhoc.
Are you wanting to have a internet connection from cellular or wifi or not at all?
Tagged for continued interest.
I just want to know how you rooted your phone...
