Howdy,
I am having trouble unlocking wifi tether on my new AT&T S7 running ....pk1. I am rooted using:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/att-galaxy-s7/how-to/root-s7-att-g930a-g935a-t3410538
thanks princecomsy and chainfire!
I have tried the following unsuccessfully:
1. adding net.tethering.noprovisioning=true to the build.prop
-and a few others I can't recall off hand.
2. adb shell tether_dun_required to 0
Is there another way?
Is there a ROM that I can flash with FlashFire that already has this functionality? Any help yall could give would be greatly appreciated.
Flash xposed, and then install xtouchwiz
Thanks, but I tried your suggestion and still no luck. Any other methods?

Install stang5.0litre rom from the Verizon thread. Teather is unlocked by default on his rom. It works great on AT&T, just have to have WiFi on initial setup since the APN is a Verizon APN. After that put in the AT&T APN, download titanium backup and freeze "setup wizard" so you don't get the "the sim is not a Verizon sim" notification. PM me if you decide to flash that rom and I'll tell you a few more things that need to be done to get rid of some annoying things that happen you you flash the rom or read his ENTIRE first post in that thread.
Not sure what you may have done wrong, but as I posted before, all you need to do is install xposed framework, and then the module xtouchwiz can remove the tethering provision check.
If you have it set to "secure boot" then you won't be able to use xposed. Disable that and try again.

I've been wanting to flash this rom a couple days ago but got a little nervous. Will I run into these similar notifications on most roms from other carriers?

I've flashed roms from other carriers and haven't had these notifications. But it's no problem. Just gotta freeze the notification and add in your APN manually

No problem. Just make sure you read the entire first post. There are some really important parts that can save you a lot of head ache. Also, the settings menue will be all white when you first boot up, open super snake (snake icon app that comes with the rom), grant permission to Super SU, click button in top right corner and click "restart system UI).

Everything worked like a charm. The only issue I ran into so far was the settings menu being white which I fixed using super snake like you stated. My APN settings didn't get changed to verizon's. I think it was because I restored my systems settings from and old backup. Thank's a lot for all your info. You've just opened up so many roms for me to try thank you.
Thanks everyone, the new rom is working well now. I had trouble with the APN and for a while had no internet and no picture texts. I entered the APN setting dirtydoge recommended and changed changed the network mode from "Global" to GSM LTE UMTS. Not sure if one or both were needed to fix the problem but its working now!
Thank you all very much for your help. Also i tried installing xposed and xtouchwiz and wasnt able to get the wifi tether working...not sure if i unchecked boot or not. But my phone had quite a bit of lag when xposed was installed, so i like the current setup better. I really appreciate your input and help.

Yea, closed will make your phone lag depending on which modules you use. But the WiFi tethering should work by default just by flashing the rom.
I must have put a decimal point in the wrong place or something. Shoot! I always do that. I always mess up some mundane detail.

Lol. I've done it before. Bit also Ayer putting your APN in, I've heard of it taking a few hours for the pic messages to start working again.
As an aside... if you don't want to root or modify APN...
I downloaded Package Disabler Pro (was $1.50 on Play Store) and was able to disable 'TetheringAutomation' and 'TetheringProvison' and now I can enable tethering with my grandfathered Unlimited plan. I am *NOT* rooted and am on PK1. It doesn't "check for activation" or whatever it was before, it simply enables tethering like the XPosed module does for root.
EDIT: It worked once, and now doesn't. Nevermind

It doesn't work like that on Nougat haven't tested on MM PK1 yet. If I disable those two on N it disables tethering completely.
I flashed the G930U firmware last month and the tether works "right out of the box" so to speak. No root needed or even changing APN settings, other than adjusting for Straight Talk. Even got an OTA a couple of weeks ago. Tether was my biggest reason to root so now I'm good.

With U firmware you lose Wifi calling though, right?
Hi I am struggling to sim unlock my SPH-l720 so that I can use it with cricket, I've tried all the sim unlock methods and can't seem to get it to work.
MF9 -> MDC changed the servicemenu settings and what not
Everytime I try to simunlock I just get a "SIM card not found" error, nor can I edit my APN settings even after adding the two lines in the build.prop editor. I also notice all the guides are using 4.2.2 firmware, which I'm not sure how to downgrade to, or if that is even possible.
Downloading an APN editor lets me add a new APN, however it never saves.
Hello.
I have an app that verify account by sending OTA to my number. But the problem is i do not have my sim inserted in that phone but in my other phone. But the app force auto detects the sms and manual input of the otp is not supported. Is there any to bypass this?
N.B. I have my phone rooted, Magisk and xposed installed running android oreo on resurrection remix rom. Thanks in advance.
So I have a sim and an sd card on my phone, and when I tried going to unlock status, the thing succeeded and I was like, ok, cool. Except, when I ducked back in to the unlock status, it does the same thing with asking for permissions and preparing to add my account again. When I tried using the unlock tool, it says the account isn't bound. Is there a way to make it stick?
Edit
nvm, I tried using the official unlock tool and it works.
Hi, just curious, has anyone found a way to completely remove the white ugly Dual SIM selector which is persistent in notification area whenever two sims are inserted in H990DS Stock Oreo ROM? I've tried googling for the solution and tried using the System UI Tuner, but still no luck. If anyone has tried and successfully removed it, would you please share it to the world
Thanks!
