Anyone else experiencing this? My Verizon 7.7 has unreliable tethering on FoxFi, Wifi Tether, and the native tethering app. They all start up fine, but after about 10 min. the tablet's data connection starts to go in and out. Once I turn off tethering, the data connection becomes stable again. My Thunderbolt has no issues on Wifi Tether using the same SIM card.

My tablet is perfect on stock ics wifi tether, purchased in antwerp belgium, used in united kingdom.
CM9 port is nice but no wifi tether option, so using stock rom which I think is a nice job from samsung, transformed this device.

Hmmm...maybe it's just an issue with the Verizon version.

Bad luck, they probably added something in to make the experience poor and deter you from sharing the connection, in my experience best to steer clear of large controlling american companies if possible,

Just curious, what is the advantages of using external tethering apps over stock tethering option in Galaxy tab?
BTW i use stock bluetooth tethering and found no issue.

After upgraded to official ICS, i cant do a tethering anymore. My gtab is bought from malaysia. Anyone experiencing this also?
Similar problem with rooted 6800 after a clean ICS install. Tethering is working fine, but only until the screen shuts off. After that the stock tethering shuts also off.
Tried other apps like Wifi Tether and Barnacle, but have the same problem. After switching on, Barnacle says that it is interfering with Wifi Manager, whatever it means.
I have no task killer
I use usb tether on my gt-6800 running HC.
I sometimes get losses of Internet connectivity but I'm not sure if it is down to the signal where I use the tether. Eg. I was getting it a lot a few weeks ago but recently it's been pretty stable.
The lease on the IP seems to need renewing every hour and it's often around then that problems can happen.
4.4 broke my ability to wifi tether through T-Mobile. I used to use FoxFi and a VPN to encrypt the connection. Since upgrading to 4.4 all encrypted packets are just dropped. Any request to a site via HTTPS just times out. Trying to use an unencrypted connection just gives me the paywall, even on other Android devices which I used to be able to tether for free on.
Anyone else on T-Mobile have their wifi tethering through FoxFi broken with 4.4?

My tethering is broken in general. I'm not even getting the paywall. I'm on a Tmo reseller Solavei but no issues until now.

the default tethering option works fine, its 3rd party tether apps that are broken. wait until they get updated for 4.4.

I can confirm this works. I did it to both my phones about a week ago, been working flawlessly

If you'd read the fix link you'd know that's not the case. The default tethering app is now allowing data routing through a secondary carrier APN which is filtered instead of the conventional mobile data APN. That has to be disabled in one of the Android settings database files to get it back to working the same way it did on < 4.4, which is routing tethered data through the same APN as the phone uses.

This fix doesn't work for me. I still get "error" when I turn on portable hotspot. I have to reboot phone after that to get normal WiFi working again .

I also can confirm this fix works on my Nexus 4 stock 4.4. I just did it. :good:
Thank you so much for this. I didn't think I was the only one with this issue
I'm on stock everything using OTA 4.4. I'm on fido and have a plan that includes tethering. on 4.3 it was fine but after 4.4, there's on access to Internet when I'm connected to the hotspot. My mobile data is fine and I've checked that my apn settings are correct.
I'm not rooted so I can't modify system files. Any solution?

Same issue here.
The fix is not relevant to our problem since we can not turn on the tether at all.

+1 to confirm I have the same issue. I am not rooted running stock 4.4 on Fido. Tethering was working great on 4.3 but since the upgrade to 4.4, devices can connect to the hotspot but not get access to the internet. Can someone confirm for me what the apn settings should be?

Deleting or renaming /data/misc/wifi solves the problem.
I'm using a Galaxy S4 from USC (SCH-R970).
4.3.1
Loaded PAC-MAN nightly build dated 11/16/13
All seems to work very well and I'm quite happy with the ROM. There is one glitch I'm having which I can only assume is from the ROM. Whenever I leave my wifi connection and the phone needs to switch to data, it doesn't. It takes a reboot and then all is well. This is what happens when I leave home to go to work. I don't have a wifi connection at work. Going back home doesn't cause any problems. It happily picks up the wifi again.
Other forums have had some suggestions such as toggling wifi on/off (as in airplane mode) etc., none of which seems to work for me. I need to do a reboot to get back to enabling data connection.
Has anyone else noted this? Is this a known issue? Are there any suggestions?
Thx
I have almost the same issue, for me, I randomly lose data connection, and have to reboot to fix it. I DL an app called 3g reconnect and haven't had the problem since. I don't know a real fix but hope that helps

Hi fellas,
I got a p10+ 2 had no issue so far. However since b366 I have issues with usage on WiFi. Google search works ok, some apps works sometimes, majority of apps only works on 4G.
Internet connection is stable, all other devices got no issues whatsoever in our household.
Also noticed when I switch off WiFi mobile data get switched off automatically.
Anyone else experiencing the same issue?

Solved. New telstra smart modem seems to fixed the issue.
Hello. I wanted to see if anyone could help me with the YouTube app and the play store. Theres a certain wifi that I use on my daily commute and the apps never works with that specific wifi! I've deleted the cache, restarted and disabled and enabled the apps again and nothing works
Is this WiFi that your vehicle provides? Have you tried any other app while connected to this WiFi?
You need a VPN, your WiFi there clearly blocks certain domains.
