i have tried ZVE version now ..

it also gives " Authentication error .. please try again later ... "
[Sprint LG G2] galets:
Found one problem on ZVG: the "not subscribed" dialog is bypassed after device is rebooted, but not if phone has been running for a while.
[Sprint LG G2] galets:
I think I know what is happening. This mod only works if phone is on LTE. If it is on 3G, then you get the same message about hotspot subscription
[Sprint LG G2] Another Drunk NPC:
I've been having that problem since I installed the mod when it was released. I am quite appreciative of the work that went into it, but this is certainly an odd issue.
[Sprint LG G2] ericdabbs:
I don't think you can really tether on a 3G connection anyways. 3G is just too darn slow on Sprint so I don' think it would be of much use.
[Sprint LG G2] PimpMy5Ton:
Actually you can tether on 3g, I've done it many times to use with my laptop and it works perfectly
[Sprint LG G2] galets:
Are you saying this very mod works for you on 3g (edit), or you are making a general statement that it is possible to tether with some 3g device?
[Sprint LG G2] PimpMy5Ton:
I am saying this mod works for tethering on 3G, its kinda silly to say that tethering doesn't work on 3G when many people have done it before many times including myself
[Sprint LG G2] Need4Sneed:
Just take your G2 to boost mobile and tell them to activate it. The G2 is on the list of Sprint phones you can now take to Boost and have activated. Since Sprint owns Boost and they use the same CDMA/LTE network bands, they have gotten cool about bringing Sprint devices to Boost.
[Sprint LG G2] ImCoKeMaN:
Any updates for ZVH?
[Sprint LG G2] rdlegy:
Hi, I am on 5.1.1 vanir and I want to try this. Will it work with d802 model? What does it actually do? Can someone explain it to me, because nowhere in the thread says what it can do.
[Sprint LG G2] wetbiker7:
I'm on Boost. I took the ZVH update and flashed the hotspot mod. Works great.
[Sprint LG G2] ChoppedLiver:
I'm not seeing a mod for ZVH, so are you saying you flashed a ZVG one? And if yes, which of the 2?
[Sprint LG G2] wetbiker7:
I used the one that says hotspot mod ZVG flashable. I had some trouble getting it to work at 1st so I flashed it and then used the WiFi Tether Router app I had purchased on Play awhile back. I had no problems getting it to work after installing the app.

Remember to select the ZVG flashable version. Hopefully it will work for you. If not, flashing the hotspot mod and then purchasing the WiFi Tether Router app is a guaranteed fix. Just activate the hotspot through the app.

I originally had to use the app with my S3 when the AOSP ROMs hotspot wouldn't work. Glad I had already purchased it and decided to give it a try with the G2 hotspot mod.

Hope this helps.
[Sprint LG G2] Joelbert:
I'll start with a thank you to everyone who contributes so much to this community. I am a complete noob on all of this phone stuff, and this site has been great.

So far I have successfully rooted my ls980 and have twrp on it with ZVI using the recipe below that I got here http://xdaforums.com/sprint-g2/general/zvi-ota-update-zip-t3266332/page8:

1. Root using KingRoot.

2. Use AutoRec to install TWRP.

3. Download latest flashable zip version of SuperSU and copy it to device.

4. Go into KingRoot settings and choose "Full unroot" which will uninstall KingRoot and unroot.

5. Uninstall Purity app installed by KingRoot.

6. Reboot into TWRP Recovery and install SuperSU zip file from step 3.

7. Reboot and run SuperSU, it will say binary needs to be updated. Select Normal method. It should work.

8. Reboot when SuperSU has finished updating binary and profit.

I used TWRP to install	HotspotModZVG-flashable.zip, wiped cache, and on reboot I am stuck in a boot loop. The phone gets fully booted and as it goes from saying no service to Sprint, it reboots. I tried clearing everything, and reinstalling ZVI from this thread http://xdaforums.com/sprint-g2/development/rom-ls980-stock-5-0-2-zvi-flashable-t3303163. Everything works fine until I use twrp to flash HotspotModZVG-flashable.zip, and then I am back to the boot loop.

Am I missing something obvious?
[Sprint LG G2] NavyLCDR:
ZVG hotspot mod is for ZVG ROM, not ZVI.
[Sprint LG G2] Joelbert:
Yes, but a few posts back in this thread there was some talk of the ZVG hotspot mod working on ZVH. I figured I'd try it. I expected it would work or it wouldn't, I didn't expect it to stop booting properly. Like I said, I'm new to playing with phones.
[Sprint LG G2] tabp0le:
I don't have g2 anymore, but I will look into making updated one.
[Sprint LG G2] Uiop687:
Thanks for the effort. Looking forward to it :)
[Sprint LG G2] Joelbert:
Thanks. If you need a guinea pig to test, I'll volunteer.
[Sprint LG G2] tabp0le:
I'm still working on a flashable version, but for now here is a working mod for ZVI. (attached)

Please take a full TWRP/Nandroid before doing the following steps.

Automatic Instructions

Flash the HotspotModZVI.zip

Manual Instructions

Download HotspotModZVI-NoFlash.zip

Extract the zip.

Put services.jar on root of internal memory.

Connect USB to phone with debugging enabled.

Open command prompt on your PC

Type the following commands:

C:\User\Blablablah>adb shell
$ su
# stop
# mount -o remount,rw /system
# cp /sdcard/services.jar /system/framework/services.jar
# chown 0:0 /system/framework/services.jar
# chmod 0644 /system/framework/services.jar
# rm -f /system/framework/arm/services.odex
# reboot

You're done! :good:

[MENTION=7406805]Joelbert[/MENTION] Thanks for testing

[MENTION=4568459]Ascertion[/MENTION] if you want to add this to OP that'd be great. Thanks.
[Sprint LG G2] bigpappa:
tabp0le, thanks so much!

Confirmed flashable is working without any hiccups on ZVI, rooted w/twrp installed.
[Sprint LG G2] tabp0le:
You're welcome! I'm glad I could help.
[Sprint LG G2] anon002:
Thanks tabp0le. I'm on stock ZVH rooted with stock bootloader. Just got the hotspot working using your 'Manual Instructions' along with 'HotSpotMod_-ZVG.zip' file from OP.
[Sprint LG G2] sparklekid:
thank you so much tabp0le. I was able to tether for a day and after some time of not trying it out, I noticed that while the tethering feature "sticks" -- that is, either the USB tether toggle or the Wifi Hotspot toggle don't revert back to off --, and the computer that I'm tether to either via wifi or usb actually shows it being connected/tethered to the LG LS980, there is no internet connection.

I was wondering if I can fix the lack of an internet connection via tether. While I'm doing this, I can access LTE and 3G internet directly on my phone just fine. It's just that I can't share this connection to the internet with whichever computer I'm tethering to. I've tried this with multiple OSes with similar results -- namely, Windows 7/8/10, Linux (Arch and Centos) and OSX El Capitan. Thanks again for your help!
[Sprint LG G2] tabp0le:
No problem! Try updating your profile.
[Sprint LG G2] MobeenQureshi:
Not able to turn on Hotspot

Followed every bit of it. Successfully flashed the rom of zvd deodexed and booted the phone. But the same behavior persists. Whenever trying to start Hotspot, it says turning on and the Hotspot option gets stuck, WiFi turns off.

For the reference, I am not able to perform the last step i.e. reset Profile/PRL. There is no such option of check for updates or reset profile in my phone anywhere. I bought used phone and it came like this. I'm using Telenor as my carrier in Pakistan.

Any suggestions?
[Sprint LG G2] Doctur:
Is this compatible with my system? If so which one? Thanks. Its also deodexed. Also on Boost Mobile ,but its a sprint rom.
[Sprint LG G2] tekweezle:
I am on ZVI rooted. I installed the ZVI Hotspot and it seems to work. However, my clients can't get connected to the Internet. They get a discount error. I tried updating the prl as stated earlier in this thread.

Anyone experiencing the same problem and have a fix?

[Sprint LG G2] justinswidebody:
Dezt, what Rom are you running? I'm trying to find a common denominator between you all
[Sprint LG G2] lowpro3210:
hmmmm, so that's the deal LOL - please disregard some of my stupidity, but I was wondering as to what was going on with that the weather animation when I downloaded the deodex version the very 1st day it was posted. So, since I am using the deodex version, I am unable to have the weather animation while using the quick window case? Honestly, if that's the only thing that is not able to work due to me using the deodex version, I can sooooo totally deal with that...if you want a weather animation try this :) https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.hamsterbeat.wallpapers.fx.color.full (it's freaking amazing) granted its a live wallpaper, BUT its captured in real time, and it animates whatever the current weather is going on in your city; for instance, I'm in Ohio and it's snowing or was, and snowflakes fall all over the screen, and when it rains, rain drops and lightning bolts will also be displayed on the screen, so on and so forth depending on weather conditions; and I was one for never really using live wallpapers since it drains the battery (or at least did with previous phones) but the battery life on this phone in combination with Savocas custom kernel http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2572992 is INCREDIBLE, that is a thing of the past. Give it whirl, I HIGHLY doubt you will be disappointed
[Sprint LG G2] dezt818:
Running Icerom V 1.1 Twrp 2.6.3.3 All stock too
[Sprint LG G2] justinswidebody:
So you are having issues with a deodexed Rom. Go to settings/more/mobile network/ and make sure you are on global or lte/cdma. Then make sure connection optimize is off, and data over mobile network is checked

---------- Post added at 06:48 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:45 AM ----------

Lowpro, there are many more reasons for having an odexed Rom. However I really like the weather animations on the lockscreen. In my opinion I should be able to have all the options the factory Rom came with.
[Sprint LG G2] dezt818:
Did all of the above and still nothing :(
[Sprint LG G2] justinswidebody:
I have no clue, I don't see how it can work for so many and not work for such a few. Just to make sure dezt, you flashed the mod on the first page right?
[Sprint LG G2] dezt818:
Yup did it i will redownload it and reinstall everything and see if that works thanks :)
[Sprint LG G2] lowpro3210:
scratch that, when I go to turn on WI-FI Hotspot, I get "network is unavailable" and then it turns back off...now I am getting that network error; any ideas? tried wiping cache and dalvik like recommended and getting error about not having a wifi service? Getting this message :(
[Sprint LG G2] souleman:
After wiping cache/Davlic go into advanced and "Fix Permissions" Then reboot phone and try that.

I did have an issue once where I could connect to the phone but didn't have internet access. After fixing permissions, Everything is working fine. (Posted from my laptop tethered to my G2... odex version)
[Sprint LG G2] rmnelson:
This is exactly what is happening to me on 3g. I'll test youdug's rom tomorrow, it's too late for me to start that tonight.
[Sprint LG G2] justinswidebody:
For the people having issues running the deodexed Rom. Try flashing my odex file. I have a feeling that a lot of y'all didn't wipe properly when installing your new roms, and y'all might still be running odexed frameworks. You can check this by going into root explorer and looking at your system framework folder and see if there are any odex files. I say this because I have realized that twrp does not wipe system when you do a factory reset. Therefore you go to advance wipe and wipe system,data,cache,and dalvic Cache, other wise you will still have all your odex files.
[Sprint LG G2] chinchillables:
I had flashed the zv8 rom you mentioned prior to you saying it and I can't get the phone to boot with it. I get a "security error" screen which is a far as it will go.

I flashed the zv8 radio by itself, but phone still says zv7 so I don't know if it just didn't change the number of what. Webbed I flashed the odex zip from this thread, I get the boot loop.
[Sprint LG G2] lowpro3210:
Hey, I use PhilZ recovery and click on WIPE DATA/FACTORY RESET which gives the option to wipe data/factory reset or CLEAN to install a new rom which I chose and never had a problem with before assuming thats the option to choose to wipe EVERYTHING as it mentions to fresh install a NEW ROM (like the superwipe method with one of the old recoveries I used on my previous phone (cant think of the name at the moment (brain farts suck))

---------- Post added at 01:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:50 AM ----------

justinwidebody, I have all that you mentioned already done from the list of bloatware removal stuff floating around here somewhere; but everything you said, I checked and its what its suppose to be...a little baffled right now and I would HAAAATE to have to start from scratch by installing the odex version of the ROM and completely starting over because I have sooooooooooooo much stuff already installed on the phone, not to say I wouldn't if that's what it will take in order to get the native wifi hotspot working (this is EPIC-good job again OP)-but I think I will wait it out for a bit and see if someone comes up with a solution rather than jumping the gun...lets try and collaborate everyone and work together...whatever you need me to do OP; I will make backup after backup after backup if you need me to try something on this deodexed ROM ?? thanks again!
[Sprint LG G2] mchlbenner:
fix

running stock with twrp

install do your wipes.

fix permission!

reboot it should work.
[Sprint LG G2] lowpro3210:
Edit=moderator please delete
[Sprint LG G2] mchlbenner:
Ok about 20 minutes it will not work anymore.
[Sprint LG G2] justinswidebody:
Mine still works perfectly fine. I might have to reboot my phone after not using tether for a while but as soon as I reboot all works great again. As for everyone having problems, I am all out of ideas. Only thing I suggest you try is flashing a new Rom and reflashing the tether mod
[Sprint LG G2] lowpro3210:
Still getting same message, I go to turn it on, and get the error "network is unavailable; please try again" then the switch turns back off
[Sprint LG G2] Ascertion:
Update profile and try again.

[Sprint LG G2] cozmohoot:
Can you suggest the simplest method for my phone? I can root with ioroot only to get this to work but I never messed around with anything else.

On my s3 I rooted an used treve.

Please. I will definitely donate once I get this. Thanks
[Sprint LG G2] saucratiz:
i can confirm it works for me on the odex file, I am on the sprint update odex root rom
[Sprint LG G2] lowpro3210:
I did all this, this wouldn't be causing any issues would it? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2521066

It came with a TON of bloatware pre-installed, so I wanted to remove what I could safely without causing any other conflicting problems with other programs..

I froze UPDATE DEVICE 4.5.1.10 using TB (which updates the PRL, PROFILE etc); but I froze all the sprint stuff then froze the UPDATE DEVICE, because if I keep UPDATE DEVICE unfrozen, then everytime I reboot phone, I get force close because all the other sprint stuff is frozen...so what I do is, unfreeze UPDATE DEVICE, update PRL and PROFILE, then refreeze UPDATE DEVICE, reboot and the force close stops...
[Sprint LG G2] Koopa777:
We need a tethering plan for this to work right? If not, why does this work/how would Sprint not be able to detect the usage of tethering?
[Sprint LG G2] lowpro3210:
looks like I'm going to have to completely start from scratch then; because I tried fixing permissions and updating PRL and profile, and still getting the same error message; "network is unavailable. Try again later" , so is the majority of people here using "youdugs ZV8 ODEX ROM rather than the DEODEX ROM?
[Sprint LG G2] saucratiz:
people like deodex when they want to them roms change the status bar ect... but for me the stock is fine minus the bloat
[Sprint LG G2] lowpro3210:
so you are using youdugs ODEX stock rooted ROM or ICEROM? Just want to make sure before making the big change because having native hotspot vs usb is EPIC....assuming you're using youdugs ODEX ZV8...you installed ROM, let it boot up completely, then booted in recovery, and flashed hotspot.zip , wiped cache and dalvik, reboot and it's working for you? If you could, please just explain how you went about in doing so to getting it to work..thanks a LOT!
[Sprint LG G2] saucratiz:
yes im on youdugs ODEX stock rooted ROM

process was

1 wipe everything but system data

2. flash rom/reboot

3. boot into recovery

4. flash odex hotspot.zip/ flash multiwindow mod

5. reboot

6. update profile

7. start wifi tether
[Sprint LG G2] lowpro3210:
thank you for replying back so quickly!!!!..a couple of questions...if I'm coming from from deodex to odex, would it be alright to completely wipe EVERYTHING, such as system (you mentioned everything BUT system) but I dont care about losing all my programs and what not..., I want to start completely over, fresh, so I don't mind losing everything I had....and you mentioned updated profile, just profile, or PRL also?

EDIT and lastly, I may have overlooked it while re-reading this thread, but could you please post a link to the multiwindow mod you mentioned in step 4? thanks again
[Sprint LG G2] Ascertion:
Got it added.

Thanks man for odexing it.
[Sprint LG G2] saucratiz:
sorry ment wipe everything except internal data
[Sprint LG G2] lowpro3210:
awesome; I'll keep hitting the THANKS button til I run out...could you possibly please post a linky to the multiwindow.zip you mentioned?
[Sprint LG G2] saucratiz:
I always have the hardest time with the search forum on xda can not find the split window.zip file hopefully someone sees this and can post
[Sprint LG G2] lowpro3210:
yes, I too searched for it, and googled it, but came across a splitwindow mod but I believe it was from 2012 for an older phone and want to make sure I get the correct one for the LG G2 ..hopefully someone will see this and either have it already or have better luck finding and post it...thanks again to you and the XDA community!!!!

EDIT- "Sorry, you are limited to 8 thanks per day" :( no more for today, I'll get you tomorrow!
[Sprint LG G2] metalboy94:
The phone checks the available network interfaces and asks permission from Sprint to tether those which are not allowed. Sprint does not seem to check the actual data that is being transmitted. We modified the smali so that the phone would always tether all the applicable interfaces.

The fact that it's not working for some people is worrying though.
[Sprint LG G2] justinswidebody:
Metalboy I just wanted to make sure you got the donation I sent
[Sprint LG G2] metalboy94:
I did, thank you very much
[Sprint LG G2] justinswidebody:
Thank you.
[Sprint LG G2] saucratiz:
maybe the issue that some are having is from the recovery version... or maybe sprint has one up'd and outsmarted... I would try now but i am in office with barely a 3g signal to see it is currnetly working...it worked as of last night
[Sprint LG G2] alldayer:
I just flashed used Odex and it works using LTE data! No problem! Also, after closing and starting the tether, doesn't work next time, but rebooting fixes it...thanks for that suggestion. Hell, I have NO problem rebooting when I need to start tether again or just leave it on! I will donate ASAP!! Wonderful news
[Sprint LG G2] metalboy94:
What messages are you getting if you don't reboot?
[Sprint LG G2] alldayer:
No message if I don't reboot, just connects to tether but DOES NOT allow access through the tether to internet. I've turned airplone on/off, toggled mobile data, profile/prl update, still can't connect to internet through Wifi after being able to the FIRST TIME and toggling the Wifi tether again. After reboot, the tether works and I can access internet no problem. If I close Wifi tether again, it won't allow me to get to internet, I can connect device though, no error.

Your donation has been sent my friend!!
[Sprint LG G2] metalboy94:
Thank you. However I'd like to iron out these little niggles - think you can send me a logcat from when tethering doesn't work?
[Sprint LG G2] justinswidebody:
Metalboy, whenever you try to tether again without rebooting, when the device you are on tries to use data the data just cuts out. When the device stops trying to use data then you have data on the phone again.
[Sprint LG G2] mchlbenner:
This what keep getting.
[Sprint LG G2] justinswidebody:
Maybe i can get a logcat in a few
[Sprint LG G2] metalboy94:
Heh, how are you enjoying your G Pad?
[Sprint LG G2] justinswidebody:
Lol, love it , it's my favorite out of all my others. I'm more of a fan of 8 inch sized screens. I kind of have a phone and tablet addiction. I have a nexus 7 2013, note 8.0, g pad, I've had the HTC one, note 2, note 3, and the LG g2... best thing about the gpad is all the g2 xposed modules work on it. So I can't get data to stop right now lol, figures
[Sprint LG G2] lowpro3210:
still getting the EXACT same error messages as before after flashing ODEX version :( .. I go to turn it on, and get error messages (network is unavaialbe, please try again), then turns back off...followed your instructions down to the T...any suggestions?
[Sprint LG G2] justinswidebody:
Lowpro, this isn't making any sense. I just don't see how it's not working for some. Maybe you can do a logcat and let metalboy look at it. He could probably spot the problem very easily
[Sprint LG G2] alldayer:
Here you go
[Sprint LG G2] lowpro3210:
what do I need to do in order to logcat and I will post results immediately..thanks for the fast reply..and I'm saving everyone's name so I can give THANKS for tomorrow since I ran out today!
[Sprint LG G2] justinswidebody:
Lol, there are some log cat apps on playstore that would make the process easy. Pretty much start the logcat app, try to tether then disable logcat. Find where log was saved and upload it to your drop box and post the link here
[Sprint LG G2] lowpro3210:
Had to restart computer and was going to edit post, I am installing "aLogcat (free)" from market and will post results...thank you!
[Sprint LG G2] alldayer:
Sorry, I attached to reply on forum, should I have provided a link to the dropbox location instead?
[Sprint LG G2] lowpro3210:
is this for the people such as myself who keep getting that error message and keeps disconnecting upon trying to enable?
[Sprint LG G2] saucratiz:
not sure what recovery version are you using
[Sprint LG G2] alldayer:
My logcat isn't for any errors, my logcat is an attempt by device tethering through phone to internet. My issues is after the FIRST SUCCESSFUL tethering episode and I turn the native Wifi tether off and back on again, I can connect my device to the tether again (no error) but this time my device will NOT get to internet. If I reboot phone, it will work again.
[Sprint LG G2] justinswidebody:
Alldayer, the way you did it is fine.
