So wait let me get this straight this allows u to tether WiFi to others or is it mobile data to others? If it is mobile data then what does this do that I can't do with the built in tether? Sorry if this is a very obvious question I didn't understand all the code and all that fancy jargon in the OP.....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] lovekeiiy:
This allows one to tether other WiFi devices to your phone, and the phone's internet access. In other words, gives one the ability to turn his/her phone into a hotspot.

What's the different between the build hotspot on your phone and this, probably not much in overall function. There are differences, but it gets more into other factors of how one uses their phone, the plan with the cell carrier, and so forth. For some, it lets them use actually use the phone as a hotspot without having to pay extra, which some carriers require to use USB or WiFi tethering. Some carriers, put additional data limits on tethering. and the app can circumvent that hotspot limit; it will not get around overall data usage.

If I were to guess, I think most just don't like cost the carriers want to impose. Some carriers, at least in the USA, will charge $30 for, maybe, up to 5GB, and some additional costs past that. This can be very expensive for those who need to use a laptop or something often away from other internet access. I use my Note 2 as a hotspot at work because I have no other internet access. I tend to use around 2GB to 3.5GB per day.

As for the jargon, it may be a good time to Google the terns and learn what they mean. Most jargon here is use in a lot of other places as well. If that doesn't work for you, ask.

Hi TrevE,

Can you help with getting Wifi Tether to work on the Galaxy S4? The current versions doesn't seem to do anything. There is no error message in the logs but just the SSID is not being broadcasted it seems...

EDIT: I have tested this on US Version Sprint L720 S4 and confirm that it is fully functional and working flawlessly.

PLEASE see CRAWRJ OP HERE to search if any other variants have been confirmed or not.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Lolento:
Do you need to push the files in the first post of your info at all? I already have an hotspot option working (T-Mobile), just SSID not broadcasting like the second post says.

Also, it doesn't say on your link what S4 the files are for? (i9500 or other variants...)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] rlmiller:
Since we now have a working CWM... A flashable zip has been created and new instructions provided.... Please revisit the links below(I updated them) for the super easy flash instructions and to see which other S4 Variants are confirmed working.

Start Stop From Tasker

Hi, I've PM'd TrevE about this but then decided it may be appropriate to simply post it here for everyone's benefit.

How do I start/stop tethering from Tasker?

Multiple Google searches have lead me to dead ends and advice that no longer works.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] lovekeiiy:
I don't believe you can. I know in my GN2, it shows it running in the taskbar. But if I do a pulldown, it just shows the app running, and if it touch it, it just opens the app. I'm assume it's probably not that hard to create a toggle for it, but doesn't mean the ROM will let you add it to the taskbar.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] scientist343:
I had this problem on my S3 and had to disable smart network and connection optimizer. Since it was shutting down the wifi. Not sure if you have these settings on the S4 but won't hurt to look. That won't fix the encryption but it fixes the disconnection every few minutes for me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] lovekeiiy:
I was having an issue as well. I think it was because I had more than one busybox binaries loaded, somehow. I deleted them both, and reinstalled busybox.

after that, I installed the beta 3.3 version the Galaxy Note 2 (Sprint), and went step by step. Everything default, could I get my tablet to connect. Yes, change the SSID. Yes, Add encrytion and password. Yes, then access control.

I needed Driver 2, and Sned Netd enabled. I was also able to use do not disable bluetooh and change the LAN IP. It was tedious, but remove as many variables as possible, then add as things continue to work.

Not working.

Can you please confirm that this is the command you're using:

!/data/data/com.googlecode.android.wifi.tether/bin/tether start 1

Also, I'm using the app called "secure settings" since the one mentioned in the wiki page is no longer available. Are you?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] clambert11:
This is what I have for my ROM...

!/data/data/com.googlecode.android.wifi.tether/bin/tether start 1

Also here is a link to the plugin I think you appear to be missing:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.elmicha.app.LocaleExecute
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nikkobenson:
That plugin didnt work either. Though I did notice the wifi on my phone went off and on. Is there a log that I can use to check whats happening?

---------- Post added at 09:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:35 PM ----------

Wow. It finally works! Thanks so much for your help.

For googlers that are having this issue you HAVE to use the locale execute plugin. Secure settings isn't working for some reason.

Secondly, you must use "WiFi driver reload" and not "wifi driver reload 2".

Finally, if you look in the wifi tether app, the log still shows up even though you're using the command line.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] KEYofR:
I don't know how hard you tried or what you tried, but for the record, all I did was google "treve tether" and found the site where the source code is hosted. And in there was also the compiled apk.

http://projects.ziggy471.com/projec...itory/changes/WifiTether-TrevE_Mod_Latest.apk

Reading through this thread you may want to try the 2012-11-18 version if the latest doesn't work. I don't know if that's still the best recommendation today it's just what I glean from reading the thread.

currently running version 3.3 pre2 on Sprint Galaxy Note 2 with doexidized stock (MC2) rom with Persues kernel 3.0.36 (alpha 36). I took a bit to get working. It work with all the default the settings. I was able to change the SSID and passphrase, enable WiFi enncryption, access control and don't disable bluetooth. I used Driver reload2 and Sned NetdMax Client cmd. I also changed the LAN networking setting to a different IP subnet.

In the good week since I upgraded to MC2 and got it working, it's been working well at work, where it's on for six to seven hours and moves around 2 to 4GB of data.

HTC One

The version that was just recently updated on the Play Store didn't work for me. It would start without errors, but nothing could see the network.

This version is working great on my T-Mobile HTC One. I'm running TrickDroid 7.5.0 with the stock kernel. I used driver reload #2, have WPA2 and Access Control on.

I went repository where the new version from April is hosted, but it looks like the only new additions are MAC spoofing and some Evo 4g/Sensation fixes that don't do anything for me.

Anyway, thanks again, TrevE. This was my goto tethering app on my HTC One S, and now again on my One :D

Tether & VPN?

Hello, tried builtin tethering on a rooted phone, got:

Free T-Mobile Msg: Smartphone Mobile HotSpot (Tethering) access has been blocked. Please add Smartphone Mobile HotSpot service available here. hxxp://offers.t-mobile.com/tethering/upsell.do?source=100SMS From:889

tried foxfi/pdanet, same thing.

Now 12 hours later, when i connect to wifi hotspot the pc says 'No Internet connection available' on that SSID using any method (treve or foxfi)

I installed Wifi Tether TrevE Mod and configured it (dont see how it's different from foxfi, when it comes to carrier circumvention) and installed

hxxps://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=hotspotshield.android.vpn&feature=search_result

so running hotspot shield then a hotspot/tether app, and BAM! i get internet on my laptop through wifi tether.

but hotspot shield is abysmally slow (it's free) so i got a real vpn ( privateinternetaccess ) but their app doesn't work with tether, tried vpnroot, same thing, and openvpn for android, and it outright states it doesnt support it

What makes hotspotshield so special another vpn app cant do it?

can treve tether be configured to force through phones VPN?

Thank you very much! I have just put a custom rom on my S4 and the wifi tether worked fine at first. Then after an update or 2 it stopped, and I was really annoyed.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] quadracer06:
Is anyone else having issues with the treve WiFi tether? I have been using it ever since it was released and it worked wonders...but then maybe a week or two ago it would all of a sudden lose connection. The app would still be running, but no internet connection on the computer. I did a completely fresh install of my rom (Jelly Beans version 18) and was hoping that would help, but no go. At one point (before b18) I uninstalled the dish anywhere app because it started after I installed that...it did get better for a little bit, but then it started falling out again.

Has anyone been experiencing this issue? Currently, the wifi will start and maintain running but after a few minutes, there is no connectivity.

My wife's phone is stock rooted and seems to be doing the same thing actually...

The strange thing is that none of the settings changed when it started cutting out.

Thanks

Hi there,

I have been using this app quite for some time already.

My phone is Note2 and its built-in wifi tether work perfectly and all my other stuff can connect to my Note2. However, if my Note2 os connected to vpn, then all the connected stuff cannot go through.

With this app, whether I am connected to VPN or not, all my stuff can go through. Wondefull..

Can't get TrevE Mod to work on Nexus 4

I just received my Google Nexus 4 (by LG) and the first thing I'm trying to "fix" is tethering. I'm almost there, but when I turn on tethering the log shows this error: "Enabling MSS Clamping...failed."

Here is how I got here:

Phone Model: Nexus 4

Android Version: 4.3, build JWR66Y

Bootloader Unlocked and phone Rooted using Nexus Root Toolkit (NRT_v1.7.2.sfx.exe)

...which also installed TWRP Recovery during Rooting

Used TWRP Recovery to install SuperSU ("UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.43.zip")

Used Nexus Root Toolkit to Install "Wifi_tether_v3_3-pre2.apk"

I've tried various settings inside the "WiFi Tether - TrevE Mod" app.

I used the settings from this link highonandroid (.com/android-apps/how-to-wifi-tether-any-rooted-android-smartphone-or-tablet-universal-guide/)

to set up the tethering. However, in step 10 they show to "Enable MSS clamping." I do NOT have an option for "MSS Clamping" in my settings.

I'm not a developer. I know just enough computer skills to follow instructions, but not to start hacking at command lines myself.

Can anyone help?

Ok so I have tried every setting possible and I can't seem to get this to work.

The only reason I can see that it's not working is if you look at the picture I have attached it says it starts everything then stops wifi interface and stops ap. The app comes on and says tether is running but it doesn't transmit and the download upload never moves like it usually does when it first starts. Any ideas??
