I'm up and running, THANK YOU!

Anyone else unable to modify the SSID or key? Is this a permissions issue on the apk? I'm set to 0644
[Verizon LG G2] nrage23:
He states the permissions you need in the OP. I underlined it for you.
[Verizon LG G2] uuc328:
644=rw-r--r--

same results when permissions are set at 777

edit: got it, had to delete the stock .apk and .odex, previously i only had them renamed
[Verizon LG G2] RichTJ99:
Thanks, this works perfectly!
[Verizon LG G2] booda3000:
Renamed stock hotspot files to .bak.

Copied new hotspot to system apps, changed permissions, rebooted.

Works great!
[Verizon LG G2] buckley101:
This is unnecessary. Verizon doesn't charge you to use their mobile hotspot anymore. I heard of this rumor and went in the other day to ask them if it was true and they said that it is true, you do not need a plan anymore to tether your data
[Verizon LG G2] PoloM1:
I am on an older tiered data plan and I have to use this mod in order to turn on tethering.

Wish FoxFi worked since I don't want to root, but alas it doesn't and may need to root for this.
[Verizon LG G2] WACOMalt:
I dont know why you'd be opposed to rooting, Its like 1 click, and there's no downsides whatsoever. If you ever need to return it just flash stock.again

Almost no mods work without root, and this is no exception.

Deleting APK's

So maybe someone can help me out here. On a VzW LG G2 rooted. I downloaded the apk from the original thread. I am using "Root File Manager" to deleted the original APK and DEOXED files, however, when I attempt to delete the file, I get a confirmation message but the APK is still shown?

What app should I be using to remove the original APK files?

---------- Post added at 01:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:55 PM ----------

Nvm I just purchased Root Explorer and that did the trick. I can confirm that the method in the OP works.

You should have gotten Rom Toolbox Pro instead, I don't remember how much it was but it is well worth it.does everything Root Explorer does and many many more.

Mobile Hotspot app disappeared

I was trying this mod, but I somehow deleted the mobile hotspot app. I tried restoring it with my backup, but it didn't come back. Can someone please provide some guidance on reinstall the original Verizon Mobile HotSpot app? Thanks in advance.
[Verizon LG G2] puothy:
Not sure if this will work (never tried so maybe someone who is more well versed can validate this) using a root explorer, go into the TB folder and find the stock backup. Copy the file to another part of your SD card so you don't jack-up your original backup (might not be necessary but I would hate to lose that original backup). Open the file and extract the APK. Use a root explore to replace it back in the system folder.

Again, maybe someone can validate this for me. I am no Dev
[Verizon LG G2] spamforme:
Thanks for the tip. Tried it, but couldn't get it to quite work, ended up doing a clean ROM install. Appreciate the feedback though.
[Verizon LG G2] CtK4949:
Can someone post the original HotspotProvision.apk and HotspotProvision.odex

So I can install the new update, thanks!!
[Verizon LG G2] usefulidiot127:
I uploaded the original files here: http://www.filedropper.com/hotspotprovisionstockbackup

Just remove the "bak" from the file extensions and place in your system/app directory.

VS98012B

I know there's a whole thread on the topic in general, but for those of us that simply utilized the temp adb rooting procedure to install the hotspot mod first summarized above in Kaiken's post (#28), will installing the 12B update when received 1) bootloop, 2) undo the hotspot mod, and/or 3) simply continue working with the benefit of the update? Has anyone who utilized the adb root procedure to install the hotspot mod taken the update and if so, what were your results?
[Verizon LG G2] CtK4949:
Thanks, im still getting a error when trying to install the update: Err: 0x1111004

Anyone know why??
[Verizon LG G2] Kaiken:
Have you made any other changes? Maybe installed the LG Browser or have a custom recovery? Everything needs to be stock to update successfully.
[Verizon LG G2] CtK4949:
Im only rooted, i changed the hotspot and bootanimation. which i have put back to stock.

Do i need to unfreeze the apps from Titanium Backup??

I think I might have uninstalled an app, but i dont remember which one. :(
[Verizon LG G2] Kaiken:
I downloaded a stock rooted rom when I accidentally deleted something. Just compare and push files you don't have.
[Verizon LG G2] CtK4949:
Good idea, thanks!!
[Verizon LG G2] TabletConnect:
Does anyone know if this is necessary? Since VZW got rid of unlimited data plans (for those of us who upgraded), I thought they no longer charge for mobile hotspot.
[Verizon LG G2] iowabowtech:
I believe that is correct. It's just that many of us here have held onto our unlimited data plans with a "take it from my cold dead hands" kinda mindset. And unless things have changed, I think vzw still charges unlimited customers an ala carte fee to enable tether. So this mod breaks the provisioning would lead to the addition of said fee. If times have changed or I got that wrong, so be it. That was my latest remembrance of the issue which dates back to near release of this device so I could be mistaken.
[Verizon LG G2] jkatt:
This is correct
[Verizon LG G2] hollywoodS14:
can i get someone to drop me a copy of the mobile hotspot odex file please? Not the hotspot provision, the actual moble hotspot app odex file. i accidentally deleted it, ty guys
[Verizon LG G2] pilot85:
so i scrolled thru the comments and idk if i missed this. but i backed up both the original apk & odex. instructions said delete them and install the modified apk. the odex file isn't necessary in the new apk being used? hope i make sense. or if im over analyzing the instructions.
[Verizon LG G2] gbeardmore:
Or just flash this from the OP of the Digital Dream thread...

[Verizon LG G2] gladden237:
Wait so is a portable hotspot free on Verizon if you don't have unlimited?
[Verizon LG G2] WACOMalt:
With this mod you don't need to pay for the additional tethering charge, but going over your data cap would still charge as usual.
[Verizon LG G2] cckeeler:
I thought mobile hotspot was free if you are on a share everything plan. Is this not the case?
[Verizon LG G2] mademan420:
People still have capped data plans without having a share everything plan. I dont think its an option anymore for new comers. But to your point, tethering is free with the share everything plans.
[Verizon LG G2] MightyT01:
Just got my LG G2 and will activate and root it tonight. Since I have unlimited data, I'll give this mod a go. Just curious, I was able to edit the provisioning check using SQL Lite on my rooted Razr Maxx to get mobile hotspot working without any issues. Has this been attempted on the Verizon G2 wihout resorting to changing the files?

Nevermind, after rooting my VZW LG G2 I successfully followed the OP instructions to a T and it worked great!. Awesome job guys!

BTW, props to Jrummy's Rom Toolbox Pro and it's Root Browser option. Makes this all easy especially the permissions part.
[Verizon LG G2] heggood:
+1, this did the trick for me too, thanks.

[Verizon LG G2] axtn95:
Just to verify, anyone know if this works on 12B?
[Verizon LG G2] tli311:
It works on my 12B, but the only problem I have is that I cannot change the SSID and PW.

Any idea??:confused:
[Verizon LG G2] axtn95:
No idea, weird. Try going and finding the any hotspot and tether app in settings>applications and clearing cache and data and seeing if it helps.

Just a guess
[Verizon LG G2] tli311:
My bad, I should preset it up before I turn on the hotspot. Working perfectly!
[Verizon LG G2] DJrumbero:
Just bought the LG G2 from Verizon yesterday. I followed the instructions given here and it is working perfectly. Thank you to all the people that helped for this to happen. I thought I was going to be a forever owner of a Razr M phone with free hotspot.

[Verizon LG G2] somnambulator:
I've been looking as well and havent found anything. It's amazing to me that LG didn't include a widget or notification tray icon for this. While i'm absolutely in love with this phone (1 day old) and think LG's software is pretty good, it seems like they gave up prematurely. The tray icons and customization options are 75% of where I want them to be. The quick settings are great, but it's missing some options (Mobile Hotspot and LTE toggles for starters). The notification tray itself is pretty decent, but do I need to be notified every time I'm auto connected to a wireless network? I can edit lock screen launch icons, but can't choose non-LG apps? What?

overall I'm glad it's not a Samsung, and for that I am thankful.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] mackaby007:
galt: thanks for all your help. As I said, I applied Pocket Hack Master 2005 to both my Jasjar (with the latest ROM) and to my wifes' MDA Pro, but with totally different results.

1) My Jasjar struggled to pass the test to overclock to 624Mhz, but did eventually. Once achieved, it would lock up within seconds and had to be soft-reset and clocked back to 520Mhz where its pretty content and somewhat an improvement on the Jasjar without HackMaster!

In contrast:

2) My wifes MDA Pro, passed the 624Mhz stress test 1st time and rockets along comfortably all day, with no probs.

I can't help but wonder if us Jasjar owners may have a software problem with our Roms, unless another Jasjar owner had the exact same positive response that the MDA had.

*Point of interest: Although the MDA overclocks and runs happily at 624Mhz (haven't tried beyond - have only used safe settings) both the Jasjar @ 520Mhz and the Pro @624Mhz are pretty indistinguishable in performance. I'm talking about refresh rates, access to or loading times of programs and video playback @ 640x480 resolution.

Feedback appreciated guys.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] eagle 1:
My Jasjar seems to run ok at 624. Tried the test 5 times and ran for several days without issues. Not much difference noticed, except pocket informant seems to run better and faster.

Ok, I've done the overclocking to 624Mhz and it seems to be running well. (only been half an hour since I did it though!)

Everything is working well. Can't say I've noticed a massive difference in performance although my Citrix client seems to be running a little smoother. Even the camera seems to be working well (and that's usually the first thing that's gone wrong when I've tried overclocking on previous devices!)

God knows how the battery will be affected, but we'll see...

My details are as follows:

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] mackaby007:
Your keeping me up now sub69!

Tell me, if you would, as you seem to have the same ROM version as myself and also a jasjar, wouldn't you agree that it is probably some 3rd party software I've got installed on mine that is causing the problem? Or you have something on yours which is helping yours!

Mine is almost down to a skeleton Jasjar! I've only really got Spb 3.0.1 left installed accompanied by hackmaster & TCPMP (obviously) and Resco Radio. That's it! any ideas? My wifes Pro has the same software installed, as I mentioned earlier and she too flies along at 624Mhz.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] sub69:
I had SPB Pocket Plus installed for a while too. I did a hard reset a couple of days ago, and left that out when I re-installed everything (because I was only really using it for the 'proper 'X' button function) and my JasJar seems to be running a lot smoother now.

I'd hate to place the blame on one piece of software, especially as I love the idea of Pocket Plus, but I really think I'll be waiting a while until they release a WM5-specific version from now on. I know I'm not the only one who thinks it slows down my JasJar (can't remember if it was this particular forum where I heard that though)

(Oh, and I should be asleep by now too!)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] sl9:
mackaby007: Sorry about going a little offtopic, but since you have access to both devices, which one do you like the most? MDA PRO or JasJar? And what are the reasons? Just curious :)
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] qazzi76:
thanks mackaby007,

i've got to concur with the general consensus.

i'm beginning to feel that there might be a third party app that causes the jasjar to crash when you try to overclock it to 624mhz.

i dont need any of the software in the external rom so i intend to hard reset my jasjar and do a soft reset before the external rom loads like Sub69.

then i'm going to install phm 2005 and see if it overclocks to 624mhz and remains at that speed without crashing/freezing up.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] rpingar:
on my JASJAR:

I pass the tests several times at 624mhz, all succeded.

But asap I switch to 624 I get it crashed.

P.S.

the only software loaded on background is MS voice command
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] mackaby007:
Time for a Hard Reset!

Hi guys. Thanks for your feedback, it all helps!

Sl9: I for some raeson still prefer the Jasjar! I can't put my finger on it, but it's probably that you can install newer ROMs and stuff like that from i-mate, without voiding warranty. I have also come to like the colour. The silver MDA Pro is nice to look at and everything, but the jasjar is somewhat discreet when i pull it out in public and I don't like to advertise what I'm carrying around with me. Just my preference I suppose.

Sub69 & qazzi76:

Ok I'm going to try a hard reset witha soft reset right now and try re-installing only Hackmaster and TCMP thingy. I'll let you know.

And sub69, I must say I concur with your decision to hold back anything not written for WM5.0. It looks like that obvious thing we all knew about in the beginning has come back to the forefront of our discussions and problems. If it isn't WM5.0 specific, then it isn't truly compatible, even if it does appear to work! :wink:

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] qazzi76:
Hi mackaby007,

I'm sorry to hear that - very dissapointed in fact - i wonder whats causing it to lock up like that...
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] qazzi76:
I wonder if this issue can be tied to the Rom revisions the devices ship with

It's quite possible that this is a ROM issue...

Another strange factor is the your wife's mda pro has an older rom revision than both of our JasJars (Radio Stack, ROM, External Rom, Protocol version)

This is admittedly highly frustrating...
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] mackaby007:
Tell me about it! Well such is life. Funny thing though, is that sub69 also has a jasjar and same ROM (i think - Ext ROM details never confirmed due to soft reset at the time) and he seems to be flying along at 624 MHz! Confusing more like! Will let you all know if and when developments take place. Night all.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] mtbsoft:
This could simply be due to different chip batches.

I beta tested PHM2004 before its release on my O2XdaII and managed to get as high as 1658MHz (stable too), the next speed up caused a hard reset.

I currently scale to a max. of 592MHz (which is L=40, M=2, N=1 for those in the know) and have no stability issues at all, whereas a number of colleagues who had identical devices & ROMs (at the time) were unable to use the L=40 setting, having to limit themselves to 528MHz (L=36) as the best performing CPU speed.

According to Anton, the L=40 setting was generally considered unstable for my device which is why I have to choose the Ultra Fast RAM settings rather than going for the PHM defaults. It appears that I'm just lucky and my device has better spec. RAM than most and which tolerates the higher speeds - the same could be true for your devices, one could simply have higher grade RAM (or whatever) than the other.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] mackaby007:
1658MHz (stable too)!!! Flippin 'eck!!

Interesting comments about the different chipsets, that seems like a plausible scenario, given my circumstances and the unexplained differences between supposedly sames specced hardware and same ROMs.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] mtbsoft:
That would be the polite translation of what I said!

The more interesting part (though expected to some degree) was that this delivered far worse performance than many of the lower speeds, since it required the N multiplier to be at 0.5x which bottle-necked the whole device. Still, it's nice to have been there!
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] sub69:
Just to confirm, I haven't used PHM for the last day or so, but I've just re-installed it, selected the same settings (624Mhz from the 'recommended' list) and it's working again.

Yes, I have an identical ROM, RADIO, etc version. The ExtROM version is blank in the 'About' screen 'cause I reset it straight after the "Your device is now setup" screen (after tapping on crosses all over the place to align the screen), and I installed the operator settings from the i-mate .cab file on their website.

I'm not using PHM long-term, 'cause I have no need to (everything works fine for me without it), but I'll keep it on here for a day or two and let you know what happens...
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] mackaby007:
Different build version of O/s on MDA to JasJar

I will be posting a new thread on this as I need as much feedback as possible, but as the title to this post says, the build versions for these two devices are different. Surely a ROM upgrade will not alter the version of the O/S will it?

MDA Pro: Version 5.0 OS 5.1.1700 (Build 14352.0.1.0)

Jasjar:Version 5.0 OS 5.1.1700 (Build 14354.0.1.1)

Could this be the reason for differences in performances as well as potentially different chipsets in these devices?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] sub69:
Mine is the same as your JasJar, I'm afraid... Version 5.0 OS 5.1.1700 (Build 14354.0.1.1)

Wouldn't the difference between MDA Pro and JasJar be down to the fact that T-Mobile obviously asked MS to meddle with their version of WM5 (to remove the 'standard' MSN app, for instance).

I think I'm right in saying that MSN is part of WM5 as opposed to an ExtROM app?
