So, cricket (att) is blocking tethering out of the box. Any ideas?

Lol. And lose AT&T's network? Not a chance.
I'll root when I have some time and see what I can figure out.

Yes, it works great on the cricket network.
Simple and cheap solution
Bought an Overture 2 for $20 and as many report both USB and WiFi tethering is blocked. Tried PDAnet but no luck. Rooted with Kingoroot and rechecked PDAnet and USB tethering is working fine.

that may be what you're looking for until we get the bootloader unlocked and can start doing some heavy modding!

Really? The device is a pos if you can't illegally tether without a plan that allows tethering?
Not to be rude, but there are ways to ask things without being a jerk about it.
Pay for tethering if that's what you want. Find a way around it, but that's not because the device, Samsung, or ATT have provided a pos device.

Thanks man +1 FoxFi works..
I was delighted to find out that FoxFi works as well. My phone is stock, not rooted or anything. I had the paid version of FoxFi from a while ago when it was on sale too.
so if im on the unlimited data plan on att i can grab this app and it will allow me to tether off my LTE???!!!

Finally got pdanet+ to work had to by the full version. .. the free version of foxfi force closed everytime. Tried the paid version but it just downloaded the key then pda net not foxfi..

Me too~
I didn't know there was an app by Chainfire that manipulated hotspot controls, haha.
It works for me quite well!
However, Foxfi didn't do anything for me, it just force-closed itself after hanging for 10 seconds.
Also, if you want to use the default functionality, you can drop by over here.
I've never had a device right out of the gate before, but I'm glad there are devs so diligent on getting the ball rolling for this device like literally(seemingly) every other device out there.
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?

Are there any foxfi users on the VZW G4 that can confirm that foxfi still works (or doesn't) after taking today's OTA update?
Thanks,

How are you guys getting it to work? I must be setting it up incorrectly because it fails for me every time

Did it used to work for you? When you install FoxFi it prompts you to install/configure a VPN, but the setup is very minimal.
Question: I don't have the phone, but am due an upgrade with verizon in a week. Doesn't the LG G4 have a Portable WiFi hotspot option? or in other words why would one need FoxFi on this phone?
Foxfi is free i believe. Anyone had luck with Sprint's G4 and Foxfi?

No I couldn't get it to work before so I gave up. I went through the suggested setup but still no luck. Not sure what I'm doing wrong

Of course since I said that I tried it again and now it's working. It's weird though because I did nothing different this time compared to before. Oh well haha

FoxFi is for people without tethering on their plan, like us on unlimited data. The phone has built-in tethering, but unless it's on your plan it doesn't work. FoxFi bypasses this.

There is a free app, but it's severely limited. The paid version is less than $10.

I've been using MM unrooted for over a week, and have unlimited data on Verizon. Tethering definitely works.
Tethering working fine... Not rooted... Stock

Since the only root method is sending it in... Does anyone have a method to get mhs working on my unlimited plan? Is there like a hack or something that would work? I never really liked foxfi.
Any thoughts on this??
