You don't HAVE to rename tether guard, I tested it with and without.

IF only the widget works, that would be great, but not too much inconvenience with quick settings, i am satisfied.

No charge on bill

I just got my bill today as the 19th was the last day of my billing cycle, and i used the hotspot mod that day.

I DO NOT HAVE CHARGES on my bill for this just so everyone knows or is worried it might generate a charge.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Synthic:
Great work! I love all the little scripts you're putting out to remove all the annoyances on the VZW HTC One. I was looking for a way to enable tethering so I could pair my Nexus 7 with my HTC One if I ever had the need and came across this thread. I was about to go and flash the zip file but I thought I'd take a quick look at my current setup first. Since I am running [MENTION=1331268]santod040[/MENTION]'s debloated stock rom I was already rid of the Tethering Guard, but I still had the WifiRouter_JB43.apk so I just pulled the default.xml and made the changes, then pushed it back and fixed the permissions. I decided to do it manually once I realized that the default.xml had a bunch of new settings that had been appended to it since I flashed the rom. Now the stock tethering is working beautifully. I don't know if this will help anyone or not, but here is a diff of the stock XML and the one included in this zip to make it clear which lines need to be changed.

Will this work on 4.2?

I cant speak for 4.2, however you can always make the changes to the correct XML file as shown a few posts up, and make sure you have the wifi router app installed, and it could work

WIFI HOTSPOT for KITKAT 3.11.605.1

Here are the Wifi HotSpot Mods for 3.11.605.1 KITKAT.

This also gets rid of the LTE icon as well.

Added April 4 - 2014

Widget also works correctly in quick pull down, and if you make a manual one on a home screen as well.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] Ovy13:
I'm running stock 4.4 and I flashed the third file you provided -- and i'm still getting that warning asking me to subscribe.:(

Edit: tried the second one and it seems to be working now (though I still get a warning about using hotspot data -- I guess that's normal?). I suppose the problem here is that I don't understand the difference between the second and third file.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] carm01:
The last one is stock settings, as in what your phones default settings are, hence stock in the beginning. As far as that warning, I get it too, I'll see about yanking it out , it still works though, I'll make the change and test.

Awesome! Thanks for fixing this. I'm out and about tonight but will try it in the morning.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] xenakis:
Well, it works great! I had made the same changes to default.xml, but was not working because of wrong file permissions. Duh. Changing them to 644 fixed it. Lesson learned!

Again, thanks for your help.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] id_omg:
Having trouble installing the KitKat OTA. The phone is unlocked, s-off, stock recovery. I flashed the "STOCK_NativeTether" zip to bring the phone back to fully stock. The download of the OTA proceeds fine. Reboot to the "Upgrading software from Verizon wireless screen", at around 25% of the status bar the red triangle over the phone icon appears. I then hold the up volume key and press the power button to get to the Android System recovery <3e> screen. The error that I am having trouble with is related to the TetheringGuard.apk. The error message is as follows,

"/system/app/TetheringGuard.apk" has unexpected contents.

Installation aborted.

Write host_mode:0 done

Any ideas on how to clear this error so that the OTA can proceed.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] carm01:
When I made the stock one I used a deodexed apk instead of the odex version as the deodexed version will work on both odes and deodexed stock roms. My suggestion is to go to Santod's Rom and pull the native apk and odex files and replace them into the flashable zip in the location where the apk is in the zip. Do not extract the content n rezip, just open browse n replace.

Probably a dumb question for most, but do I flash all 3 files? Thanks in advance for the help
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] mardoon:
no you just flash file that matches your 4.4.2 load :)

example 3.11.605.1_M7_WL_KK_55_VZW_442_Odex_Debloated.zip = Enable_NativeTether_ODEX.zip

Will this work on an unmodified phone with 4.4.2?

Hello,

Very new to all this, so bear with me... Is there a way to flash a zip file (or modify the default.xml) on an unmodified Verizon phone that has taken the 4.4.2 OTA update? I am assuming that I need s-off (so I can install recovery), but may be missing something.

Thanks in advance for any help!!!
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] dottat:
Nope. You will need to monitor the s-off thread in the original android section for an updated firewater s-off tool.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] kitanderson:
It is asking for a WPA2. is there a default? Where do I change that on the phone to WPA or none? Since flashing this, I no longer have Settings>Wireless and Networks.

Kit
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] kitanderson:
[Solved]

Solved. Locate data/misc/wifi folder, then look for hostapd.conf. Open it using a text editor which is

probably built into your file manager application. Following WPA-PSK2= is the passkey in text form

The stock app in Settings gives me an error and I can't change encryption method. Getting the passkey at least gets me back to the hotspot.

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] jvcjbl:
Does this require root access? I am 100% stock and unmodified in anyway. Can I install this? Yes, I took the 4.4.2 update a few days ago. I travel a TON for business and have always used FoxFi for tethering my laptop up until this recent update. I've searched through all of this thread and can't get an clear step by step as far as what is required.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] kitanderson:
It does require root, recovery and flashing the above tether mod - http://xdaforums.com/htc-one#root . I had been using FoxFi as well before 4.4. This is much faster. Speedtest on my laptop through 4G was 20 meg upload speed which is the same as the phone. I wish I could change the encryption but none is better than no access.

I don't know if flashing a ROM will get you tethering. That would be nice.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] jvcjbl:
I just found out that I can USB tether my phone as is. This may work for now. Being a work monitor phone I'm hesitant to root. Plus I thought you can't root 4.4.2 currently?
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] kitanderson:
I am rooted, S-off, have CM recovery and NuSense Stock ROM. Battery life is great with that ROM, btw. Been on for 15 hrs and am at 88%.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] dottat:
You can't s-off a stock 4.4.2 phone. If already s-off'd you can root into problem.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] djerk:
I got it to work,had to use the second link, tried the third link cause I'm stock rooted, anyways do I still need my foxfi app or can I delete it? Thanks
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] arizonaomnia:
I rooted and s-offed my 4.3. I think removed some bloat and took the 4.4.2. I have toyed with roms but I am still stock rooted with s-off. Do I want the odex file or the deodex file? I tried the deodex, and my dialer kept FCing when I rebooted, so I assume it is the odex one I want, but I just want to verify before I screw everything up again and have to restore a nandroid again.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] carm01:
Don't need foxfi anymore

if I have helped you please press the thanks button.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] carm01:
Technically deodex will work on an odex Rom. You just need to be careful to delete the corresponding odex file.

The only thing that is modified here is the xml file, I add the WiFi apks if you deleted them, so this should not cause any force closes.

If you are running a custom Rom, I do not know if the files associated with the hotspot are modified, if so that could be an issue of force closes. Stock Rom preferred.

if I have helped you please press the thanks button.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] carm01:
FYI i thought i would post this in case anyone else needed to know what was done or how to do.

You need to do a manual edit of the xml file of your phone to get it to work properly as :

1) you flashed the zvw hotspot apks ( which i am surprised are working )

2) you flashed the VZW xml file as well.

You need to replace back your original apks, and the origional xml , then edit the settings.

http://diffchecker.com/61ntq7ex

line 745 might not need to change however the other two will.

This is as far as i can help you with it and this should provide the answers you seek.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] arizonaomnia:

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] carm01:

[Verizon HTC One (M7)] arizonaomnia:
Wow. I realized that I had gone a few days without following up on this, and you had helped me out, and I felt bad for not acknowledging it like I usually do. I came here, posted a genuine note of thanks. Now I get a snarky reply because I thanked you incorrectly? I do understand that the number of "thanks" one gets helps establish credibility, and that the thanks button should be hit, but frankly, it's been a very difficult week around here, and when I thought of it in the hall the other day, I whipped out my phone, wrote a quick thanks on Tapatalk, and wasn't even thinking about the thanks button. I always thought that was more personal, anyway.

How about "I appreciate you thanking me - would you mind hitting the thanks button, too?"

Hello everyone, and thanks to carm01 for the great work. I stumbled a bit initially to install it (I first installed the old version, which gave me dialer fc, etc) but finally installed the correct files. The problem I have now is that I cannot open mobile hotspot settings to change the network name, password, etc. If I click on the 3-menu buttons through quick settings nothing happens, and if I go directly through the main settings, when I click on mobile hotspot, it says "unable to find an activity to handle this action". I don't know the default password, so without getting into the settings I cannot actually connect to the hotspot. Thanks in advance.

USB Tether enabled

All,

Since i never really use it, nor will i most likely I changed the xml file to allow/enable usb tether ( never really thought about it honestly ).

Please note this zip is for either de-odex or odex , as it ONLY contains the xml file, as it assumes you already have the tether app. ONCE AGAIN STOCK ONLY UNLESS YOU CAN CONFIRM THE CUSTOM ROM YOU ARE USIN HAS AN UNALTERED XML FILE AND THE apk in place

If you already have the tether app already and want to enable tether you can use this flashable file, and it will take care of tether usb and wireless
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] nprez:
Hey carm01. My ROM is the Stock 4.42 (3.11.605.1), rooted and S-OFF. The first zip I installed was the stock one from the OP (not the enable, not the stock one, which I now realize was the wrong thing to do). That gave me non-stop dialer fc. Then I flashed the version you posted in page 3, again I installed STOCK_NativeHotSpot_KITKAT__ODEX, instead of Enable_NativeHotSpot_KITKAT_ODEX. Eventually I realized the first file is to put everything back to stock, while the second one is the one that has the modified xml file. So I flashed the correct one, and arrived to the problem I described in the original post.

Good news though, I fixed it by going to apps->Mobile Tether->Uninstall updates. It's all working great now, and I can use my mobile tether without a hitch. Thanks again for the hard work!!
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] friyaz:
Hi! I am stock everything. Verizon HTC One on 4.4.2. All I did literally was Weaksauce, TWRP, then root. All today. I want to flash the simplest thing and something that is reversible in case it doesn't work. My mobile hotspot app appears to be Odex - is that right for someone who is stock? Should I flash this most recent XML file? And do you have a reverse file that I can flash to undo it if it causes trouble?

Thank'd for your hard work!
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] carm01:
The latest xml should do the trick the ones in post 21 have the hotspot added in case.

ODEX is correct for stock out of the box verizon rom

If you go to STOCK_NativeHotSpot_KITKAT__ODEX.zip in post 21 that contains the original xml file as well, but also the original .apk and .odex file as well. basically i give you everything you need in the zips in post 21

once again the apps are added in case some people debloat and yank it

If i was on a 4.4.2 ROM i would use the last one ( the 4.4.2 version ) not the 5.28.605.2 version. I know they are different for each ROM I doubt the firmware matters more so the ROM version for this particular mod.

My rom is the last Imate 1.40. [/b]ANY SUGGESTION WILL BE VERY APPRECIATED GUYS :D
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] leek:
It happens with one of my BA phones, but not the others. It seems to be caused by poor SD contacts, perhaps from inserting the SD card backwards and forcing it, or by inserting and removing the SD card too many times, or just from general wear and tear.

I bought the phone used, and it was already like this with respect to the SD card, so I don't know its full history, but I notice that it has the same problem with the SD card appearing and disappearing.

I've thought about taking it apart and cleaning the contacts, as well as checking for bent pins, and possibly bending them back.

It is probably not the SD card itself, because those pins are flat and usually corrosion-resistant. It will be obvious if there is anything blocking them.

The SD card which has problems on one of my phones, works fine on my other phones.

The fact that your problem started after WM5 upgrade/downgrade, might just be a coincidence. Or it might not. I don't know.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] roby53:
