[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] wiza200_2008:
I don't normally post because I'm a very basic phone user without much knowledge to share, but I wanted to let people know that the information provided in this thread does work on the OH1 version. I originally tried the ND8 Odex zip (I'm just running stock rom/custom recovery/rooted) and my phone got stuck on the Samsung logo. Never have I been happier to have made a backup earlier. lol

Anyway, I downloaded services.odex from post #583, unzipped it. I used the Root Browser app to first backup my original file, and then paste the downloaded/unzipped file, in the framework folder, as explained in post #601. I am figuratively so blonde (girl) I couldn't figure out the Mount R/W part (don't see it anywhere in app menus!) but I guess Root Browser took care of that part for me behind the curtain. :)

I rebooted, and I just tested the native Sprint hotspot. I did not get any more messages about not having a subscription; my other phone connected to the hotspot just fine and I could browse the net on it. Thank you so much to everyone who put this together. I am not a big data user but the tethering restriction really, really bugged me (especially during emergency situations like Hurricane Matthew the other week when I needed to pay a bill on the laptop), and nothing else I tried to get rid of this restriction worked for me.

P.S. The LTE APN Settings "hack" (##DATA#) does not work on L710, only on L710T from what I read and tried on mine.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] strongsteve:
Its just that one jar correct? Is that part of the multiwindow group of jars? I know I taught you well crawrj so it must just be something small you are forgetting. I will try later tonight when I get home. With the odexed jar, it will not be interchangeable between various odexed roms. Only the original framework from which it was assimilated. I will try with stock mb1
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] crawrj:
That is interesting and puzzling. Because I know people have tried 4G on stock with this Mod and it didn't work. Are you running the latest version of the Rom? Do you have any other customizations made to the phone or just that Rom and this Mod?

Edit: So I was looking at the TPR Rom Op and saw that it includes wireless tether. I wonder if that is what is causing 4G to work? Could I get someone that has 4G to install stock deodexed MB1. Install the Treve WifiTether. Install this Mod. And try to connect the native hotspot on 4G.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] crawrj:
Yeah it is just services.jar. I am not sure about multiwindow except that it works on MC3 which has multiwindow included now. Yeah I feel like there is something unique to the S3. Because I Odex things on my S2 all the time. In fact I odexed this same mod on the S2 in no time. But when I follow the same thing on the S3 it never boots. But I know you will get me straightened out :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ragnar:
No other mod, latest TPR 3.14 I used the mod link Rompnit posted in the TPR thread, I don't know if included any specific changes for TPR and MOAR. The only other mod is the 'normal' mod so it doesn't show phone as modified, for those apps which check for rooted devices. But i really doubt thats got anything to do with it.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] crawrj:
Could you do a nandroid and remove the WifiTether from the Rom? Then try the hotspot on 4G again?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ragnar:
Yes that's no problem but I will do it later today. I will get back to you and let you know.

Hey guys. Just wanted to pop in and say thanks for all the effort. I'll help if anyone needs a tester. I'm odexed mc3 and I'm in an lte area.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] MoMaz:
Thanks crawrj - great find

I was able to get this working on my S3 with a few more edits and my service.jar is mod with other tweaks as well (i.e supercharge, 4 in 1 reboot, etc...):D

Only think i am not sure about is if 4G is working, don't have it in my area. But will be traveling soon so will find out.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] imaconeheadXD:
Tether over 4g worked for me using MOAR, Rompnit said he just kept his other tweaks in there and added the changes in the OP so I think it's safe to say that 4g should work for stock too :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] crawrj:
Would you be willing to nandroid and install a stock rom to test?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] imaconeheadXD:
Will do sometime tonight if I get 4g again as it's very spotty by my house, if not tonight then tomorrow in school I get 4g and can test on stock
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] scottgalit61:
Just verifying it works on Moar rom
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] crawrj:
Well I haven't used TPR or MOAR, obviously because I don't have the phone, but one of the things I see they have in common is the built in WfiTether. So I am still wondering if that is the key to why 4G is working. Because so far you two are the only ones that have reported 4G working. Or it might just work on the S3. I thought people said it didn't but maybe I am getting it confused with the S2.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] scottgalit61:
Sorry i forgot to mention i was on 3g, we dont have 4g yet in Honolulu. But i can try to remove Trevs mod and see if still works...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] crawrj:
It works on 3G for sure. The question is whether it works on 4G or not. So far the only people that have reported it working also have Roms with Treves mod built in. So we need someone on 4G to see if it works on stock. If it doesn't work on stock have them install treves mod and try again to see if it works. Or take someone that is on TPR or MOAR and uninstall treve's mod to see if it still works.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Liner81:
I also flashed the mod as posted by rompnit from the MOAR thread, using the new MC3 modem. Works perfectly on LTE.

If i get a chance tonight I'll nandroid to stock for you to test 4g. (LTE on family room couch ftw)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] crawrj:
Thank you. I am all out of thanks today, funny how quickly they go, but will thank you tomorrow.

I appreciate everyone's help. After looking at the code compared to the S2 I am beginning to think that this will work on stock.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ragnar:
@crawrj did the nandroid already. As soon as I'm out of work I will remove the Treve WifiTether mod and see if your hotspot mod still works on 4g without the Treve mod. Only reason I can't do it now is i think this building was built with lead or kryptonite :D I get no 3g or 4g in here.

EDIT : I will also flash freezas stock rom and tested for you on that.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] crawrj:
Thank you and take all the time you need. If you really feel froggy how about going all stock and trying? That would be the most conclusive test.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] strongsteve:
ok.. I have odexed and assimilated the modded services.jar for stock odexed mb1 roms..

I need a tester.. PM me.. nevermind.. see next post
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] strongsteve:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] RS7JR:
Ready to test odexed mc3 with no Wi-Fi tether app ever installed. I get 4g right here in my house where I'm pretty much at all the time. Tried strong steve's just to see if by chance it might work and it doesn't boot. Stuck on Samsung screen.

Remember ... my odexed mod was for MB1. Odexed mods are not interchangeable among roms.

Alright. Flashed freeza's deodexed MC3 leaked stock ROM. Booted well. Then flashed the deodexed MC3 hotspot zip.

I'm in a 4g LTE area, and am sending this from my tab via my sg3 tether. Works perfectly. Surfed a few websites, solid steady data. Speed test on the tether is identical to on the handset. (I get just over 4Mbps in front of the tv)

Nice work, thanks so much for this! :thumbup:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] crawrj:
Perfect thanks for testing this!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ragnar:
Ok as an update but I see its been posted already. Flashed stock MC3 and hot spot mod. Worked perfectly with 4g wifes phone, laptop and tablet all connected. Posting this from wifes phone while tethered wifi hot spot from mine. Again great job! Excellent. Confirm works on 4g on stock
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] crawrj:
Thanks for all of your testing. It is greatly appreciated.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] MadFlava:
I grabbed the correct one. My brain was malfunctioning when I made that post thanks, Steve :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] crawrj:
Odexed versions are now in the OP. I don't know why it wasn't working for me last time but I just did MB1 and MC3 with no problems. I had StrongSteve ready in case it messed up again so I think his presence scared the phone into submission :laugh:

Here is the mod applied to Deodexed MB1 and gruesomes Multiview Mod.

Works on my phone. Please let me know if there are any issues.

Make a backup and copy the services.jar to the proper directory and set the usual permissions.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] HashTagHell:
Good question. Anyone?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] agat63:
I'm with sprint about 4 years.

Have family plan with 4 lines.

All phones all years have had WiFi tether active.

Either as WiFi tether for root users or as Native hotspot hack.

Sprint never contact me with any questions in that regard.

However I use hotspot only when it's really needed.

While traveling and not having any othe wifi available (which is very rare).

Or in hotels when they try to charge me for internet.

Same goes to all family members.

I think if you use this wisely and not tethering all the time and using this as your primary internet access

you should be OK. We all have unlimited data plans but when your data usage is 100's of GB sprint will look very closely how you

get to those numbers.

Just be carefull and that should do it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] HashTagHell:
Thank you. Very acceptable answer.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] boombotz401:
I've also been with sprint for years and tethered the entire time,as of the last 3 years I've used this as my sole internet as I'm an OTR cross country truck driver

Tethering to my laptop xbox360 psvita and updating my GPS I use around 15-25gbs month max

Sprint never so much as said boo to me

Edit-- honestly I think we use more data downloading ROMs than we do tethering lol

Hey, I had some issues and had to factory reset my phone. I am a noob compared to most people active on xda. But, could a more detailed description of what software is required for this mod to work be added to the opening post? I am not complaining or anything. I still want to get this working. Lol I know I misunderstood something relating to phone requirements. I was merely rooted and running ktoonz kernel, also crossbreeder. I did have the TrevE teather mod installed and thought that could have been what caused it but again am not sure. Feel free to message me with any questions. Thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Erock2k4:
It was probably not supported by the Rom you were on. Mine caused problems after install as well but I just reflashed the Rom I was using and everything went back to normal.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuminaryLeoso:
I was rooted and running stock touchwiz. I had not flashed any roms. I had flashed the odex file but am not sure if flashing the ktoonz kernel made it so that I was suppose to flash the deodex file.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] crawrj:
Exactly which rom were you running and which hotspot zip did you install?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuminaryLeoso:
I was running 4.1.1, mb1 and ktoonz kernel. I flashed the mb1 file.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] crawrj:
I don't see where the problem is from that. Although Odexing can be a touchy matter. The Odexed file was built from Freeza's Odexed rom so you might try installing that first and then the hotspot mod to see if it works. And when you said you had some issues, what issues were you having?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] carole6m:
I just upgraded to this phone from the Epic 4g touch. I'm on stock rooted MC3 right now. Not sure how flashing works on this phone; do I flash a custom recovery first, flash mods, and then flash stock kernel like I was on the Epic 4G touch? Thanks in advance!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] crawrj:
For the S3 you only need to flash a custom recovery first. The recovery is separate from the kernel so you don't need to flash a kernel. Although you can flash a kernel if you want the added features.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] LuminaryLeoso:
The phone bricked to the point where I could only get into recovery. Starting the phone regularly would allow me to get to the samsung logo blinking and that's it. I reinstalled the OS per Qbking's unbricking/rooting video and it still would not get past the logo flashing. Wiping data did not help either which caused me to have to do the factory reset. I also felt like nothing should have caused this as well.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CNexus:

I got in the mood to do some phone flashing today on my Samsung Galaxy S3 (Sprint).

I found Freeza's Stock Rooted - 4-17-13 Sprint TouchWiz Jelly Bean 4.1.2 (l710VPBMC3)

I flashed it and the MC3 Firmware... Then I found this hot spot mod. I flashed the MC3 Odexed...

It flashed perfect!!! Thanks CRAWRJ !!!!!!!!!!!

I have a pretty strong 4GLTE signal here and this is my speedtest.net on my Laptop tethered...

And I'm posting this while tethered thru the Sprint Hotspot app.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CNexus:
Most likely it was because of the other mods TPR has in the services.jar and core.jar that messed it up
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] flastnoles11:
Nope many have reported this working fine on tpr... And what he actually said was he nand back and flashed tpr because it had it built in now... this mod works just fine in earlier versions of tpr that don't have it built in ;)
