[T-Mobile LG G2] Ivanprskalo:
This solution IS for system tethering.

If you have rooted device, system tethering works like a charm with this.

Also, this works even if you are not T-mobile user, meaning, you SIM unlock device and you can tether with any SIM on any network in the world...

I guess those guys who updated OTA to 4.4.2 will have to wait root for D801. I saw there is a way to flash KitKat in recovery and immediately superuser.zip after that...

I'll personally go for that way.
[T-Mobile LG G2] riceknight:
Doesn't seem to work for me. Tried using my tablet connected to foxfi hotspot and got the usual T-Mobile error notice that hotspot isn't enabled when I opened the browser.
[T-Mobile LG G2] NewZJ:
You can also setup a vpn to connect to and it won't redirect you to the upsell page if you get that issue

If this works, you have fixed the only issue that would desire me to install a custom rom

Edit: seems to be working so far, spent half an hour on the tablet and the tmobile app shows no increase in the hotspot data usage
[T-Mobile LG G2] TheFuzz:
Ok. Let me try and clarify. The step by step in the OP can be used on any ROM but is specifically useful for those like me that took the update to 4.4.2 and lost root.

When using FoxFi app it is recommended that you use USB tether mode. Also you need to hide your activity but I'm not going to cover that. I Will leave that to others.
[T-Mobile LG G2] Ivanprskalo:
Then one thing is left to be clarified:

Do I need to use that T-mobile APN? Because that won't work for me or every other user that haven't T-mobile SIM card, obviously...

So, do you think that is safe to assume that method from OP will work for me if I use my regular APN?
[T-Mobile LG G2] TheFuzz:
I can't speak to other carriers directly. But, the simplest way to tell; if you use the app and it does not "trip" your carrier hotspot app then you should be good.
[T-Mobile LG G2] adampdx:
Neither of these methods worked for me. FoxFi kept telling me that I didn't have an internet connection and editing my com.android.providers.settings database kept reverting to "1" after a reboot. After the latter method, I temporarily lost the functionality of my home button and root went away. I thought I was going to have to flash back to 4.2.2 for second. Thankfully after a few reboots and a restored file all was good.

Edit: OK, I finally got FoxFi working. I guess I didn't read the directions completely. But this didn't stop my tethering data usage from going up.
[T-Mobile LG G2] TheFuzz:
Make sure you have the settings in FoxFi set to hide internet usage. If you need my settings for that, let me know.
[T-Mobile LG G2] Ivanprskalo:
I have actually tried both methods and get them to work.

Now, I'm on 4.4.2 stock, I didn't took the OTA update - instead I've flashed that 1.4GB KK update trough TWRP, and then superuser.zip. It wasn't easy, especially because I didn't have TWRP installed at all and OTA was downloaded (kinda without my permission, in background, and then I got that notification...:rolleyes:.)

So, now, I'm on KK stock, rooted, but I'm not sure if I got recovery... and guess what, I don't care...:cool:

Both tethering methods work for me, bud since is easier I use system tether.

What I'm trying to say is:

Don't take OTA guys if you have root

,

flash trough recovery your KK and you will keep root, you can tether, you keep your data and apps

... It isn't the easiest way but it is the one with most satisfying result..:cool:
[T-Mobile LG G2] adampdx:
OK, read between the lines a bit and got took the steps I believe you're referring to. However, still no luck with tethering data. Would you mind sharing your settings for FoxFi?
[T-Mobile LG G2] TheFuzz:
On your desktop, click on the PDANet icon in the task tray. Click settings, Hide Tether usage, Level 1

That's it. Should work. Again, you may have to disconnect/reconnect from time to time via the tray icon.
[T-Mobile LG G2] pcriz:
It was stated that this will revert after a restart.... Simple either don't restart or adjust the value after you restart

---------- Post added at 01:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:58 AM ----------

So just to verify. For rooted folks the sqlite method works? I can't get my connected device to access the net but I am also in a T-Mobile black hole for the next two weeks with only edge when I am lucky
[T-Mobile LG G2] nismology:
The question is not whether or not you can tether without using you hotspot data allotment, it's whether you can use a desktop browser like IE, chrome, firefox without using it up. I've tethered to my chromecast and been able to view netflix without using it but whenever I watch it in-browser it's a different story. Is there a way to bypass this user agent check?
[T-Mobile LG G2] NewZJ:
Chrome has a user agent switcher extension, the nexus 7 option won't trigger the redirect upsell but I don't recall if it uses up the data allotment
[T-Mobile LG G2] nismology:
Yea I've seen the chrome extensions but it doesn't seem like much of a workaround at all, unfortunately. Can you confirm the fix using a desktop browser? That would tell us whether we've actually bypassed the restriction or not. :)
[T-Mobile LG G2] NewZJ:
I don't think I've used it with my desktop browser without the user agent, or not tethered to my iPad. I'll give it a shot on my laptop without the user agent changed and see what happens.
[T-Mobile LG G2] TheFuzz:
I can confirm that no extension is required using this method add long as foxfi is doing it's job and making the connection. All that you need to do is enable hide internet use in foxfi.
[T-Mobile LG G2] pcriz:
There are tons of useragents that work. I've found kindle works well for me and even some user agents for mobile browser "requesting desktop mode"
[T-Mobile LG G2] NewZJ:
Changing the tether_dun in the settings doesn't hide tether usage when using a laptop. Now I'm going to try OP method
[T-Mobile LG G2] nismology:
That has also been my experience in the past. Let me know how it goes for you!
[T-Mobile LG G2] rihc55:
whenever i do this, it reverts back on reboot. im running the buckeye v3 rom...

Any thoughts?
[T-Mobile LG G2] Ivanprskalo:
It reverts back on reboot, I think I've mention it somewhere..

Then don't reboot...

Or do what I've done: bookmark file that needs to be changed in SQlite, and cut the time needed to make hotspot up and running...

ALSO, I forgot to mention, if changing from 1 to 0 doesn't work for you then change it to 2!!

Now, that seem to work sometime when 0 don't.. I really don't know why...
[T-Mobile LG G2] pcriz:
Yeah even when tethering on AOSP roms you have to change the user agent. Doesn't affect things like torrenting or Netflix though
[T-Mobile LG G2] TheFuzz:
I'm telling ya folks, easiest thing is adding the extra APN. Only issue I have ever had is on my current custom ROM, PA beta 2 but that's because of a big with usb connectivity
[T-Mobile LG G2] pcriz:
I tether to my tablet and my Chromecast. As far as I see foxfi needs to desktop application as well?
[T-Mobile LG G2] gypsy214:
Guys I use the User Agent on Chrome. Changed to Safari with Mac.. It seems like tmobile doesnt block tethering when using Safari. But been doing this for a long time and it always work
[T-Mobile LG G2] GeorgeNav:
Working Solution

You have to change the APN settings to IPv4 instead of the IPv6 in order for this to work. Also you have to add "dun" to the line for APN type:

default,supl,mms,dun

After the APN settings are finished, switch to that option, follow instructions above.

If I am not mistaken you have to follow the steps above everytime your phone dies or is turned off.
[T-Mobile LG G2] mrgodai:
are there any tools we can use to script the change with press of a button?
[T-Mobile LG G2] GeorgeNav:
Nope, it's already simple enough. Follow these APN settings:

Name: T-MOBILE LTE IPv4

APN: fast.t-mobile.com

Proxy: [blank]

Port: [blank]

Username: [blank]

Password: [blank]

MMSC: http://mms.msg.eng.t-mobile.com/mms/wapenc

MMS Proxy: [blank]

MMS Port: [blank]

MCC: 310

MNC: 260

Auth Type: [blank]

APN Type: default,supl,mms,dun

APN Protocol: IPv4

MVNO Type: [blank]

MVNO Value: [blank]

After your APN is set and Activated, use (after every reboot):

By the way! "settings.db" is under the path: /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases
[T-Mobile LG G2] nismology:
Does it count toward your monthly hotspot allotment this way?

---------- Post added at 10:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:25 AM ----------

Thanks for this. Now we just need to find out how to change the default selected APN at boot.
[T-Mobile LG G2] GeorgeNav:
I mean change the "setting.db" with every reboot. The IPv4 option should be set until you change it again
[T-Mobile LG G2] nismology:
Makes sense. Now all we need is for someone much more knowledgeable than I to cook up a shell script that will change the "dun" variable at startup.

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/16851774/how-to-use-a-script-to-query-android-sqlite-database
[T-Mobile LG G2] gypsy214:
It does but even though you run out of your GB they give you it will still go. They wont throttle you. If you dont change the user agent you will just get the tmobile lock site. Changing the user agent you can still tether without worries.
[T-Mobile LG G2] mrgodai:
Here's how to auto run a script to set "tether_dun_required = 0" at startup

you need sqlite3 installed first

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ptSoft.util.sqlite3forroot

follow this "How to execute a command automatically at boot" Guide

and use this script

#!/system/bin/sh
DB="/data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db"
/system/xbin/sqlite3 "$DB" "UPDATE global SET value='0' WHERE name='tether_dun_required';"

reboot and check, it takes about a minute for the script to run and apply :good:
[T-Mobile LG G2] diamond12:
Interesting. My phone is missing /system/xbin/sqlite3
[T-Mobile LG G2] Memphisjojo:
mine says the same thing when i tell it to run the script... any suggestions.

i copied and pasted the above code into a new script..nonthing but the error saying the above is missing
[T-Mobile LG G2] mrgodai:
you need root for this

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ptSoft.util.sqlite3forroot
[T-Mobile LG G2] NewZJ:
Seems to be working after creating the update script to run at boot and installing the sqlite apps and running the custom APN with dun.
[T-Mobile LG G2] GeorgeNav:
My hero! works perfect

[T-Mobile LG G2] keko jones:
Quick question, i'm running PA and on the ROM it gives you a hotspot option. Since is not the TMobile hotspot, died it count against the available tether allot it?
[T-Mobile LG G2] NewZJ:
No. PA tether is already hacked and won't show tether usage. This thread is for stock roms
[T-Mobile LG G2] TheFuzz:
Yes it counts. It still uses the built in tether app.
[T-Mobile LG G2] phoenix_rizzen:
This method works on the Rogers D803. Just used it last week to stream Netflix HD movies to my laptop (hotel wifi was only 1 Mbps and Netflix SD looks horrible on a 720p laptop screen 12" from your face). Gotta love a 6 GB data plan on the last day of the monthly time period. :D

Thanks for the info!!

Oh, and this was on Mahdi ROM (June 03 version), not stock LG ROM.
[T-Mobile LG G2] tonyec7:
For PA do I have to do anything to tether without going over my limit?
[T-Mobile LG G2] tpaxadpom:
I am using both methods at the same time (New apn with foxfi and together dun set to 2, 0 doesn't work for me). Either way I get an upsell message from time to time. Last time I changed tether dun to 1 and then back to zero. When it works it works and there is no need for to change user agent. When upsell message comes up, user agent makes no difference.
[T-Mobile LG G2] C3cars:
Stupid......I left android because of this reason. I now have an Apple, not crApple and I tether unlimited without monitoring of my data. Solution= sell inferior android and buy a iPhone, jailbreak, and tether to your hearts desire.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] URBANDISCIPLE:
I would like to start my own personal conversation about this because either every other one I find has no conclusion or just falls off

I have low storage space is what my phone says and when I look at it.. Its tiny.

As IN

142 MB small ... The worst part is I have a 64gb SD card and that literally helps nothing in this situation

And then when I go into ES manager it says I have at least 3 gbs. but whats weird is Safestrap says 6 GB open for another rom if needed

Which I checked and I only have one active so thats good there

So where can I go to free up some space

PM would be GREAT or google hangouts or something

THANKS EVERYONE
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] k1mu:
Are you booted into a Safestrap slot (i.e. 3 Gb)? How many applications are you trying to install on top of the ROM?

You're mixing numbers up a bit, so it's hard to tell what you're seeing.

Safestrap is reporting 6 Gb free: that's the amount of internal storage that's available for new slots, which is only available to the stock rom.

When you build a slot using Safestrap, it's fixed in size (3 Gb) so if you load a lot of applications on top of your ROM, you can fill that slot up very quickly.

The ES File manager reporting 3 Gb - is that booted on the stock slot, or a custom ROM slot?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Mistertac:
Have you tried the Disk Usage App ?

You can hunt down what's eating up your SdCard. Es has a SD Card Analyst as well.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] decaturbob:
have you moved all data to extsd card like music, videos and picture files? I am running stock rom, and 2 custom roms with no memory issues what so ever on a 16gb phone with a 32 gb extsd card
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] URBANDISCIPLE:
Here are a few pics of what I see
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] k1mu:
That 15Gb of "Miscellaneous" files - do you have a bunch of ROM images on your internal memory? Or a bunch of nandoid backups?

Other than that, using the Disk Usage app that decaturbob mentioned is a good tool to use to discover where the storage is going.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] Mistertac:
Holy sh*t 15 gig of misc. Definitely use disk usage. You can keep clicking through until you see what that 15 gigs is made up of. I think ES let's you do that too.

Ok so I was having trouble getting viper audio mod to work with cm 11 based roms so after consulting with GoblinZ it seems he and irocevo figured it out and shared with me what was wrong. To start when i downloaded viper and installed it, removed dsp manager with titanium backup and installed viper audio drivers, it worked great.... Until I rebooted my phone then it was like I never installed the drivers, but they were still installed... So that was the issue I was having, couldn't get it to stick, so this is how goblinz instructed me to get it to work.

First you need viper audio mod [http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2191223

Now download viper audio zip file and open with your file explorer, I'm using es file Explorer you must enable Root Explorer and Mount

/system as writable. Ok now don't install the viper apk located inside the zip just extract it to any folder you like, now copy the Viper audio apk file to /system/priv-app

Ok now one more thing, You must change the permissions on the apk file, so in es file Explorer you long press on the file, then press on more/properties then permissions, change them to

Owner: read write execute

Group: read write

Others: read

Now reboot and then you should see Viper4Android as an app in your app drawer, open then install audio drivers then at the top right of your screen you'll see three dots which is the menu for the app, check FX compatibility mode and check compatible, then check UI setting to moderate or expert.

That's it your done, hopefully this helps someone out cause I was really frustrated that i couldn't get this to work cause imo this is the best audio mod for Android.

Enjoy
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] chemjb:
Or just install the app. Open titanium and convert to system app.

Open Viper and install driver of choice.

Dont reboot yet.

Edit your build.prop and change lpa.decode=false.

Reboot.

Profit.

The build.prop edit is the most important one. The only Roms it doesnt work is the last build of cm10.2 and that was because CM messed the rom and made it impossible for user to disable low power audio. Thus V4A didnt work no matter what. Evrrything else sense aosp cm etc just edit the build.prop entry and you are good to go.
