I'd be interested in a hotspot flashable add-on as well. At least until GPS is up and running on BB rom. Thanks OMJ

Appreciate the work OMJ. I never installed the hotspot hack because I went straight to your badboyz rom instead.
so 10 peole that downloaded, did it work? lol geez thanks OMJ for those who didnt tell you
If you want to continue to use stock room, and need hot spot, there is a trick using the app shortcut master from the market where you just have to edit 1 line . It works on LG g2 and g3 (I used it). If anyone wants to try, I'll look for a link to the directions.

This may be what he is talking about. Used it also on my LG G2.
Have not tested on HTC 10 though.

Good work. That is exactly what I was referring to. Thank you. I hadn't seen the request. I have no idea if it would work on HTC 10. But, it doesn't seem like a huge stretch that it would.

No good. Those values don't show up in shortcut master.
Anyone had any luck with this? I can't find the file that OMJ is talking about to save my life. I don't see any attachments.
I've tried editing my build.prop and I've tried editing the default xml to change the rules and enforcement to 0.
The latter DID let the hotspot start for me. Other devices can connect. But they never get network connectivity.
Can anyone help me confirm what I'm missing?
Fabio Grasso's WiFi Tether app works for me on the 10.
https://sites.google.com/site/wifitetherrouter/
I can't get it to work on mine! I've achieved root, installed the app, matched all the settings up....no internet connection. It's strange, my Ipad can see the network and it says it's connected. As soon as I connect it though I lose internet connection on both devices, can't load a single web page. Did you have this issue at all or would you have any idea what would cause this? I'm at my wits end with it, and I've used this app for 2 years on my M8.

HAH. I couldn't get it to work with this app (not initially anyway). I turned to his site to check if there were settings already available to use for the HTC 10 because it couldn't auto-detect the wifi adapter name. On his site, it says HTC users need to uninstall "TetherGuard" - system app.
Did that, figured I'd reboot and try the built in tethering which now works beautifully. Got it still within my refund window for Wifi Tether Router.
So some combination of what I posted above plus UNINSTALL TETHERGUARD! And life's good now. Thanks much.

It didn't give me the option to uninstall, just disable. I did that and tweaked with a few more things and that seemed to fix it. Fingers crossed!

You can use Titanium Backup to uninstall TetherGuard since you're rooted, instead of just disabling it.
Anyone want to post the specific changes/tweaks they've done? I've done changes to build.prop and default.xml (using the various settings found all over XDA) and also disabled/removed TetherGuard, but I'm still stuck at hotspot enabling but no data connection for any connected devices (data still works for the phone while hotspot is on though).

*****JI6 bricks a lot of phones. rooted or unrooted... so be careful! I would unroot and remove any lagfixes just to be safe.

**DUMMY PROOF INSTRUCTIONS!**
If you already have launcher pro:
1) goto your homescreen.
2) menu key, add.
3) hit shortcuts and then activities.
4) scroll down to device management
5) select "com.wssyncmldm.wssAppDmUiMain" and hit ok
6) this will put a shortcut on your homescreen that will say device management with blue and red arrows.
7) open that shortcut up and hit software update.
if you don't have launcher pro or don't know what it is.
1) goto the market.
2) search "Launcher Pro" or "Federico Carnales"
3) look for a yellow icon with a house on it.
4) install that.
5) once installed hit your homekey. select launcherpro but don't select use as default until you fall in love with launcherpro ;]
6) then, follow the steps above
Wao...thanks

Is this for all countries or just the current?
I'm pretty sure its just for the states.
however i was messing around in the settings of that shortcut... and it apears that you can mess with the DM server connection settings and you can mess with a bunch of stuff... so maybe if you change the APN to whatever carrier you are using it would work??
Try it. follow my steps above. goto settings then DM connection settings and edit the network profile apn settings.

the wssappdmuimain is the first shortcut. Just select it and say ok. It should place a shortcut on your home screen that says device management with a blue and red arrow. Then open that shortcut and hit software update.

Well didnt work for me . I hit software update... the same arrow appear on the top of my phone but they disappeared like in 3 secs! Nothing happened afterwards.
As I have said, does anyone has idea if this would work being overseas? I have the American version, because I bought in NY on Craiglist... But right now I am in Germany.

Try this. homescreen > menu key > settings > wireless and network > mobile networks > access point names
What does it say? whatever is selected and if your data is working... write down that APN.
THEN. if you still have the device management shortcut on your homescreen. go into that. select settings then network profile then for the APN change it to whatever you are currently using for your german carrier.
let me know if this works. if it does not and you need to revert the settings the tmobile apn is: epc.tmobile.com
Just to let you know that you can use this instead of changing apn settings, i tried that and seemed to freeze, used barnacle the first time this morning and its been working flawlessly all day.
Agreed... Barnacle works perfectly.
The APN route is cleaner, but unreliable.
I also agree, I am waiting to get on my home wireless before the market will allow me to download Barnacle thanks to AT&T market filtering, but I have been running a google tethering app for the time being and it is much easier and faster to use, just not as "clean" I guess.
My Phones:
Motorola MicroTAC Elite
Nokia 7160
Nokia 6340i
Nokia 6230
Nokia 6682
HTC Tilt
HTC Fuse
HTC Tilt2 (custom ROM)
Samsung Captivate (custom ROM,rooted)
Motorola Atrix (rooted)
I'm using "wireless tether for root". How is barnacle compared to that? wpa is the only difference i noticed in their features.

I don't see it listed on Android market anywhere.
You won't - ATT blocks it. Google search, they have a website to download the .apk. Have to be rooted of course to sideload it.
To get blocked Apps on in market, just turn your phone on without the sim. Download and install all you want without sim.

You do in fact need root access for this program and also if you use MarketAccess you can trick the market into thinking you are on T-Mobile and get Barnacle.
strange..
I rooted and tried it from app brain, but I keep getting the requested item could not be found. Is there another way i need to install it?

To get it to work you need root. Also you will need market enabler..which just tricks the market into thinking your phone runs on another service provider..as att blocks alot of apps

Ahhh, no..... while I can't say I know this for an absolute fact, DG said he's been APN tethering the crap out of his Atrix for the past week and AT&T hasn't "caught on," or nothing. With Barnacle, I'd say it would be even harder to "catch" someone wirelessly tethering - they never caught me or anyone else I know when I was using my Captivate!

I've used barnacle for the last 5 months and no change in my plan.

What .apk are you talking about? There is no .apk you download to unlock this option. You have to clear the data of two specific system apps to do this.

I THINK that he's talking about root not being that big of a deal as long as he can sideload...I'm pretty sure. Over a long time of being on forums, I have learned to read and understand the most incomprehensible of verbiage.
sorry, i was generalizing. basically if you can download the app, even if you cant install it from your phone, there is a simple method to get it installed when you get to your computer.
edit: yes, I was talking about how easy it is to sideload. just my opinion. easier to do than possibly lose mms options with this method to get the unknown sources checkbox.
just going to wait for the actual update. which better come soon. as it was supposed to be out before this thread even started.

The update was out before this thread started but only some (very few) people got it. So if someone can't wait for it, since it seems like no one else is going to get it, and they can afford to lose the mms setting (which could be reset manually), then they can do this method.
I looked for smart settings on my Verizon unit and couldn't find it. Looks like Verizon removed it.
Here is how to get it back.
Download QuickShortcutmaker from the market
Open it and scroll down to smart settings.
Open the smart settings dropdown.
Now press the first smart settings drop down.
This will create a icon on your home screen.
That's it.

Thank you for this suggestion. Most Smart Settings cannot be used without the My Places feature active, and that has apparently been disabled by Verizon as well. Any workaround suggestions?
Perhaps try Llama? It can be found in the Play Store
I would be very interested if one of the tmobile phone owners have an apk of my places, and could possibly post it.

No, unfortunately Verizon verified that they did indeed REMOVE My places functionality from their version, so no it will not auto-locate your home location after 5 days, either.
IMO, they are trying to force you to use more data. Most people turn their wifi off when they leave, and turn it back on when they come home - Smart setting will do just that. So, why would Big Red not want you to have it? Because when you have to do it manually, you'll forget to turn it back on when you get home... and when you do that, you'll use more data. my *theory*.

Or people will just leave WiFi on...because it doesn't use that much battery when not in use. This isn't a conspiracy to get people to use more data. Sounds like carriers have to pay for certain features on phones and Verizon didn't want to cash out for some less useful features. Plenty of other apps out there that can turn your WiFi on and off automatically.

Hmmm... most people I know turn it off, but to each his own. But when that is intentionally disabled along with FM radio, along with Google In Apps Search shortcut (by which you must do an internet search first before just searching for something on your phone...) - a pattern seems to be emerging... but let's give Big Red the benefit of the doubt, right? Let's forget about the lawsuit about them asking Blackberry to disable bluetooth so you couldn't transfer files, or the similar lawsuit about the same kind of thing with Motorola...
No... Nothing to see here... Move along, people, move along...
Any luck with this?

Okay yeah, but didn't see any download links since the thread was edited. I'll try to find it somewhere else
Or you could run pihole on raspberry for network wide adblocking rather than individual devices. Plus you can run openvpn so you can browse safely through your home network when off site.

go to google play look for VPN HOSTS... its an app that creates a vpn on your phone and uses the hosts file you provide and blocks ads just fine.. been using this since it was created and it works great.. no root needed, its a virtual hosts file on my phone.. free download from git hub, its in the description on google play. its free and simple...
use this. follow the adb directions and itll work. its what im using

Hi,
sorry if this was asked before - but now Adhell is dead, SABS is DMCA'd - what can we do for Adblocking now, despite using the Samsung browser with Plugins?
Any other way without root/hosts file? Thanks.

Yeah that's also a possibility, so you don't need knox license every three months.

But that's only a package disable, not ad blocker.

I found notSABS, which seems to be a re-upload of SABS and this works just as Adhell 2 did before.

Yeah wait for the next Knox renewal. You can't build new Adhell packages anymore. Of course you could use your old apk and edit it yourself I guess.

The thing that frustrates me with Disconnect Pro is that there's no custom list functionality. Otherwise it would be probably the best available.
+1 for Raspberry Pi and the use OpenVPN to tunnel DNS whilst not at home.
Here is the apk for SABS for those that want to set it up
Blokada (www.blokada.org) works really well.
It is free and open source and works across all apps (not only the browser)!
It doesn't require root, supports both wifi and mobile networks, and is perfectly safe and simple to use.
You can make exceptions for certain apps and hosts and it is using Black- and Whitelists.
Just make sure the app gets not killed by battery optimization and things like that (there is a setting to ensure it keeps running - showing a VPN symbol in the status bar).
Best regards
Amber

kinda like what I said about VPN Hosts..... which is free ... you provide the hosts file and you flip a virtual switch to turn in on or off anytime.. puts the virtual private network icon up in the top bar so you know its on ... and its free too ... I like simple and it is...
There you go. there is a new one. its called NotSABS. Its basically the same as SABS but uts been update it from a different dev. Ive been using it for weeks now without having a problem. :good:
