Have you tried asking in the AT&T Note 3 forums? http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=2582
Sent from my fingers to your face using my Samsung Galaxy Note 3!

There's a solution in the Sprint forums
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2481448
YOU WILL PROBABLY SOFT BRICK YOUR DEVICE if you just apply that zipas is, but he does include the process used which may be helpful in making an ATT version

Try this first... it works...
Turn it on and hit the home button not cancel when you get the prompt to call VZW
Hit the notifications and select Hot spot Activated Tap to Configure and change the SSID and or the security to what you want.
Check out "Hotspot Toggle Widget"

By paying for it?

Also ES File explorer can do tethering without rooting. Tested on s4 from ATT.

Paying for what? The widget app is free and I am not paying for a tethering plan

Solved. Useful link here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2496921

I don't understand, what you are looking for. WLAN-Hotspot ist built in every stock rom, just switch it on, pull down the status bar, find the icon, and thats it.

I'm looking for a app that will let me use my phone as a Wifi hot spot for free....

And here is your problem - SM-N900P I believe is the Note 3 from Sprint, which:
- has the standard Note 3 hotspot app removed/blocked by Sprint
- has a completely different forum around here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-3-sprint
You should read/ask there!

Wifi and data switch off randomly.

Have noticed about once a day at random times, my wifi and data signal will disappear when using the phone. I have to switch airplane mode on and back off to get my connections back. Not a major Issue, but slightly annoying.
Anyone else have this problem or know the cause?

I'm having an issue where my wifi icon disappears but I'm still connected to wifi. Also, the toggle is grayed out. Pretty annoying. I'm on the Sprint GS5.

The toggle is greyed out on mine too and cannot switch it back on. The only difference is that I loose wifi and network connection. Mine is o2 UK unbranded handset.
Update: my connections are still active when this happens.

I'm getting the same thing here, the data and wifi icons occasionally disappear and the wifi toggle goes dark (as if it's not connected), but I'm still connected and get data just fine.

Do you reckon this is a hardware or software fault?

I did install adblock (unrooted) for about 30 minutes and then removed it when I first got my phone. Not sure if the problem started before or after.

Its not problem adaway. I test it.

Would be nice to find out the reason why this is happening.

It didn't happen yesterday so will wait for next samsung update and see if that solves the problem. Unless it gets worse then I will factory reset.
update : shortly after I posted this it happened again so I tested the connection and I was still connected to wifi.

s5 not scrolling smoothly

so i have this brand new s5 and the scrolling is not smooth at all. I have tried all the fixes and nothing on this s5 scrolls smoothly.
I have done some reading, and a custom ROM should fix it. Which ROM is stable ? and which ROM should I go for ?

I have no problem installing your ROM if someone in Toronto , Canada can do it for me.

Make sure screen output is disabled in power saving mode settings.
