Franco and trinity has bumped up gpu, not sure others

Paranoid should be compatible with most of the kernels. If you face any problems, you can always restore Rom

There is no best kernel. It behaves differently for different phone. Most popular is Franco and trinity of that helps

So it looks like T-Mobile is blocking wi-fi tether now. It was working perfect ever since I bought my S3, but today I turn on wifi tether and all is working then I get two text messages from T-mobile (see attached image). AS soon as I received the second message my tether stopped working. I am rooted running XquizIt v70 Rom, KT747 9-5 Kernel WiFi tether 3.2 beta 2. My computer I was tethering to is a MacBook Pro running Lion using google chrome browser.

This is just a heads up to you guys and if anyone knows a workaround let me know.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Chicago281:
How did they block it if you're rooted? Weird.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] davidbudd1:
I know, it sucks. I'm curious to see if others are running into the same thing. I rarely use Wi-Fi tether but I like to have it just in case. Sometimes when I'm at starbucks their wifi is so slow.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] babymatteo:
Did you upgrade to the "Truly" Unlimited 4G Plan?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] nvmehaterz:
Do u have the new unlimited plan? If so, you can't tether hitspot wifi anymore with that plan.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] babymatteo:
Try a different app like Barnacle wifi tether or FoxFi. I've heard of success stories (lol) using Foxfi on Stock Rooted OTA LH2.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] davidbudd1:
Yes, I'm on the new truly unlimited plan, but it has been working flawlessly for the past week, up until today. I will try some other apps and see if they work.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] agtitan:
I thought they couldn't detect if you were using the app if you were rooted using wifi tether for root? I was about to get the truly unlimited plan and use it to tether to my nexus and laptop.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Chicago281:
Just curious.. Can you run the Speed Test app and let us know what you get?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] G1_enthusiast:
how does being root have to do anything with data? do you know what root mean?

anyway op, use the tether wifi ap and use firefox not chrome. see if that work.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] agtitan:
Do you know if I should be able to use the tether wifi app to tether my siii and connect from my nexus 7 tablet?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] G1_enthusiast:
i been doing it, just change your user agent to either android or desktop, dont change to ipad in the string or else it will be block.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Chicago281:
Yes I know what rooted means. However he could have updated and lost his root? Anything is a possibility. You don't need to come in here trolling like an asshole. Go play in traffic on your nearest freeway.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] davidbudd1:
Well, I downloaded firefox and everythinng is working on firefox. Interesting. I had even changed the user agent on chrome to android and it still didn't work on Chrome. Well I guess I will have to add firefox back into my mix of browsers.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] andyjxda:
Have you tried Chrome Canary? It's basically a cutting edge, development version of Chrome. Sounds like T-Mobile is blocking user agent string (which have nothing to do with wifi tether app).
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] deviusdragger:
For some reason T-Mobile has been lenient about tethering , but now that these new plans are out, I'm pretty sure they will be releasing the tether blocking kraken!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] G1_enthusiast:
thats why i'm kiind of furious all these fools bragging how they tether 30-40 gigs a month...its just stupid.

You might want to watch what you say around here, btw I edited your post.

I may not have the S3 but tethering works fine on my sensation running cm10 HD.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] redhooka:
Browser detection on their end. If you're going to tether it's best to do it through a VPN, that way they cannot even look at your traffic.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Orical:
The new contract for unlimited data states that you can not share your network in any way including wifi hotspot and tethering, that's why I didn't change my account. Its also Mobile data and not true data and before anyone asks there is a difference and certain non mobile web access wont work. Its messed up and deceiving when your use too true web data access.

They offered me a separate package for tethering with a 6 month trial period (3 months with 20$ off my account and full price after the first 3) and I never use it but if your one of those people that need it I would ask about it.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jhenderson81:
What browser are you using? I have found that Safari, Opera and Maxthon 3 all work flawlessly for tethering without downloading an extension that ruins the look and feel of the Web. Only AOSP roms can tether until they figure out a way to unlock the APN tracking like Grogg has done on Stock sense roms for HTC Sensation https://t-mobile.jive-mobile.com/#jive-discussion?content=/api/core/v1/discussions/28718 Now all our APN are locked into the framework for all stock official and leaked builds (I do believe) making a work around a must for future hopeful stock rom based tethering. I haven't changed my APN to the plain standard without password entries, asterisks etc since my lady had the exhibit 2. We still got throttled like crazy after blowing through the 10GB unlike other members who had previously experienced luck with the "simple APN" no bandwidth throttle cap APN trick
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] zander21510:
Yeah Chrome 23 Beta on Win 8 does not work, but surfing just a few pages on Firefox 17 Beta worked just fine.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] TheArtiszan:
those settings you put into the phone APN nothing to do with the computer

just on what ever browser you are using on what ever device is the User Agent you need to change.

Keep using that and download UA Changer for chrome or firefox and switch it to safari or a tablet User Agent and it will work 100%

You can even change the UA to a google spider to view full desktop sites aswell

CM10 & Sensation

This still true? I have sensation as well running AOKP CM10 Nightlies and I just got a push message from T-Mo to stop tethering... no 2nd message yet but I still stopped tethering
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] zander21510:
I was out of town for the weekend and I used a UA switcher for chrome, worked beautifully minus some pages having to be coerced to go to full desktop mode.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] iwillkillyou:
Well I got the text message as well but I ignored it. I was tethering to my ps3 trying to watch a movie but it lagged and it seems really weird so i kept trying until I was redirected to tmobiles website telling to add the tethering option.

However i went to my pc and it worked like nothing had happen.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] hakmak:
Use Wifi Tether and change the profile to generic. I'm using a wifi tether 3.2 beta with SGH-T999 4.0.4 Device on FreeGS3 rom. There are 3 generic options, 1)generic, 2)generic ics/jb (wlan0), 3)generic ics/jb (wlan1). I chose the 2nd options generic ics/jb (wlan0) which worked perfect! No need to change UA (which i did at first on firefox, but reset it once I changed the profile and tested with IE).

UPDATE: Looks like I spoke too soon. The T-Mobile wallgarden pages are coming back. User Agent override is still the standing workaround.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] eltormo:
I have debate this so many times is not even funny this are smart phones,this phones are basically computers in miniature,in fact i use 10GB this month without tethering and i was taking it slow,i got back with T-mobile,and left sprint.

It doesn't matter if you get your connection by cable modem or phone you are paying for it,data is not free and is advertise as truly Unlimited without caps,even more when netflix and pandora are even use on the tv ad Netflix is not joke when it comes to streaming,either been on PC or cell phone it will consume heavy data period.

I try to tether and T-mobile send me a message telling me that if i want to tether is $15 extra,as fast as you read that message you see why T-mobile block tether the reason is money more money they don't care about data abuse they care that they don't get as much as they think they should.

I wish T-mobile was straight forward with their clients,and actually ad a plan that include everything all in one no hidden fee or caps,and charge what ever they believe is right,i would gladly pay $99 for unlimited data without caps and tether,but just say it so that people know what they get into.

In the end there is no way to abuse something that is sold to you as unlimited...

Sorry for bringing this thread to life again but i was trying to find something to tether,which is a feature of my phone not of T-mobile network.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] yuugotserved:
ok so i downloaded user agent switcher for chrome and changed to android and tether is working again on my laptop :D

I was home in Louisiana last week visiting my mom. She doesn't have internet so I was using my Samsung Galaxy S3 with T-Mobile to tether to my laptop while I was there. First, I got a warning message and then a few days later, I got a message saying that they blocked tethering. I was using the EasyTether app.

I only tether my WiFi only tablet and I have never gotten any kind of issues although I have a new unlimited plan i don't exactly know the theater terms but the tether app comes with the phone which is ridiculous if its not allowed LOL.

TrevE mod

T-Mobile and Google definitely tried hard with jellybean to eliminate any type of WiFi tethering. They even successfully made the WiFi tether for root users and open garden useless. And the one none root that worked for us unlimited 4g data planners, the 15$ SVTP WiFi/USB tethering app freezes at opening. I thought that was it. But low and behold all thanks to developer TrevE whoever you are cause he cracked the problem. Several rooted custon ROMs like xquisitare coming with his modified app built in to the update/ROM. But for everyone else just Google search WiFi tether for root TrevE mod. You will have to download the .apk file and check "allow non market apps" in security settings but that's it. The newest is modv22 and its great. Easy access tons of options and it flies. Better luck next time Google. And of course the play store does not have the modifies working version. I have paid for every app on there root or no root and after the updated sniffers this is the only option.

PS praise be to triangle away!! I rooted my phone (GS3 t999) two days before my allshare cast hub arrived fed ex from Korea and thought thanks to rooting I bought an 80$ paperweight. But the play store all share update and triangle away resetting my flash counter and now everything is working! Even Samsung media Hub downloads and all :)

Happy tethering!

Google does their best to make sure the population has the most open and unrestricted internet possible. The more searches and web sites with Google adds you see the richer they get. I certainly doubt they would help restrict their source of revenue.

T-Mobile intercepts all of your data because you're connected to their equipment. When you use a certain amount of data within a given amount of time you trigger their proxy servers to inspect the http header data being sent via a program or app. The header contains the user agent that identifies the software sending the http request.

Im sure people complaining the move to jb from ics caused the block, is simply a matter of timing.

If you think otherwise, then once you get blocked, un tether, and get dolphin browser. Change your user agent to the same as msie9/10 and see that you're blocked under that specific circumstance. Its not that youre tethering, its that big bro is watching everything you do.

If someone can provide a link to googles aosp source showing they communicate with the carrier to verify that you purchased tethering, then ill retract my statement.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] AgentFour20:
Tmobiles current means of blocking is so retarded and easily bypassed . As stated in the post above they intercept and inspect the useragent . Once its been determined to be something other that a mobile user agent you are blocked . So encrypt your data ! Its as easy as that . There are many vpn apps that encrypt your data for free . Hotspot shield is what I use . Get it , use it , tether .
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] TheArtiszan:
hotspot shield looks like is blocked now to though. I can't even pull up the sight on my t-mo connection anymore.

I can still browser with user agent changed but if I try and stream netflix they somehow catch that.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Xyberz:
Holy crap! Is there anyway to do this without getting a degree just to understand all the jargon that's used? I swear there must be a video out there that shows you step by step on how to tether safely without hopefully getting caught. I mean there's millions of videos on the Harlem shake out within just the last week. There's gotta be a good one we can use to get our devices to tether without having to pay for the crap tethering plan. So ridiculous how they let you do it, realize they're not making extra money on it then just lock it up and force you to pay afterward. It's like being a damn Indian giver.
