It works?
[Sprint LG G2] Torpedro1978:
Hi, doesn't work for me out of the box. ZV8

Do we need to set permissions for the new folders/files?

I tried rw-r-r for the files, but still no thetering options.
[Sprint LG G2] InFiD3ViL:
Kinda confused as to what this does.

I already have the Wifi Hotspot 'unlock' that was posted here a while ago for the ZV8/ZVA.

But I am soon to be unlocking for either MetroPCS of T-Mobile, would this work for that, or am I way off base?

\What exactly does this do?
[Sprint LG G2] pvinodnayak:
This is for NON ACTIVATED SPRINT G2, brand new G2 won't have tethering in it. Only Sprint Activated phones have Wi-Fi Hotspot enabled in them. I'm from India, bought G2 Sprint LS980 brandnew which had never been activated on Sprint network. Did not have Wi-Fi Hotspot in the menu. This MOD enabled it.
[Sprint LG G2] pvinodnayak:
HOW TO

Extract the folder from the download and replace the stock carrier folder with the one you have extracted, use only Root Explorer
[Sprint LG G2] assyria:
same doubt
[Sprint LG G2] garwynn:
The activation also configures Chameleon for the brand/carrier you're activating this under. By doing it this way Sprint was able to reduce the number of builds they were doing for MVNOs and just having customization made under this feature. One of the big things this sets are animations screens.
[Sprint LG G2] pvinodnayak:
Yes sir, Did not want to get into Chameleon thing, to be frank we just compared files of Sprint Activated phone which had working Wi-Fi tethering, fiddled around and got this working. Till date nobody has been able to do that with SPRINT galaxy S4 SPH-L720, I have asked many to help here. Nobody could figure it out till date. With the G2 we, in fact it was only pm.mohanani@gmail.com who did it with his R&D, I only tested it. All credit goes to him.

We will be glad if you simplify this MOD and make it work without activating the chameleon for the brand/carrier.
[Sprint LG G2] infirno77:
So, has anyone tried this on the ls980? If so, does it work better than the hotspot mod we had?
[Sprint LG G2] pvinodnayak:
This is not something that improves already working hotspot. Brand-new G2 by Sprint does not have Wi-Fi Hotspot. This MOD is for those phones which a are activated or flashed to a different carrier out of the box. The Wi-Fi Hotspot is enabled only if the phone is activated on Sprint network. So this MOD is for those who do not I

Have Wi-Fi Hotspot enabled in their phones.
[Sprint LG G2] garwynn:
I have yet to figure out how to repackage chameleon. Tried modifying it on Sammy N2 and S4 but that zip in cache.img is signed.
[Sprint LG G2] un1ocked:
do you have a "stock non activated" carrier folder?
[Sprint LG G2] sunny4691:
I did this mod and the tethering option is working perfectly :) , but after doing this mod the phone is showing sprint logo during shutdown and startup, earlier it displayed the LG logo only, any way to remove the sprint logo ?

I need to increase Max Users to more than 1 on my device. Will this Mod help. Wifi Hotspot is working fine on my phone without this mod. I am using is out of US and is on GSM network.

Thanks.
[Sprint LG G2] lipak:
It doesn't work for me , can somebody help please.

I downloaded and replaced "Carrier" folder in the device using root exploerer.

Set permission to rwx rwx --x , rebooted .. no teethering option.

I did the same thing second time without setting any permission , rebooted ... No teethering option.

------- I see Sprint splash screen during boot up and shut down -------------

I am on stock ZVC.

you are doing it wrong, simple copy the folder and reboot, do not change any permissions.
[Sprint LG G2] vriship:
Hi, i am on stock ZVC in india using GSM. non-activated sprint device which is not having hotspot option. Replaced the carrier folder with the one in your post using root explorer. hotspot option did not come up in settings/more or anywhere else in settings. any idea what else needs to be done?
[Sprint LG G2] pvinodnayak:
Well when you extract the carrier folder, it goes like this carrier/carrier/files you have to replace the second carrier folder, not the whole folder.
[Sprint LG G2] shaynethepain:
Does this work with ZVC as well. Using GSM in India. Thanks
[Sprint LG G2] taufancandra:
i'am trying using it in ZVC, but only bluetooth tethering active.

i'm gsm unlock in indonesia
[Sprint LG G2] pvinodnayak:
Replace the whole carrier folder. Once you unzip, copy the folder inside carrier folder. It's carrier.rar, so when unzipping it goes, carrier/carrier/files , so make sure you copy the one that's inside in the name of "carrier".
[Sprint LG G2] RohanM:
So basically when you follow ysabxe's guide to unlock the G2 LS980 you already need to copy the folder carrier to root & replace it.

So whats the point of your thread then? as we already copy it as per the guide of ysabxe! :confused:
[Sprint LG G2] pm.mohanani@gmail.com:
Check the files, each file by file, manipulate and then comment...

Hope u will find the answer by your own.

Thank you,

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] tony yayo:
Ok. So your mobile signal shows sections of black also except your battery seems to be worse during those time's when mine is awesome. Assuming now because my data is off for some reason.

Is it possible because I'm using gps only in location settings, that it is not polling my network constantly to find my location causing the black spaces?

Difference between us though is you are showing signal but saying you aren't getting data, mine shows no network but I get notifications. Hmm.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] stevessvt:
I just noticed a lot of black blank spots on my Mobile Network Signal bar, but I always have a strong LTE signal, and its never had a problem trying to use data. Im beginning to think its a ROM or Kit Kat bug. Im bone stock never rooted.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] dobbs3x:
I have a problem with data on kitkat too. Tried stock and a couple custom Roms and it still will stick on the 3g icon and won't initiate back up and all network flow is halted. I have to airplane mode cycle to get it back. Does it quite a bit in a day. I only have hspa+ here.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] :
I have rooted 4.4.2 and flased infamous rom no more problems of network :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Anonymous777:
Try this... Pull battery - take out - sim - then put it back in and power on your phone. Then go into mobile networks - network operators - hit search and wait a couple minutes then a list should pull up and hit the one that says tmobile.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] motog35:
I'm having similar problems.... I leave Pandora on all day at work, and lately it's been turning off every several minutes. I check data, it shows 4G LTE but not getting any data. I have to toggle Airplane mode on and off for it to come back on.

Anyone know of a fix or having this issue?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Anonymous777:
I feel your pain

This is the speed average I've been getting lately. I'd rather be on Wifi, I can get up in the 30mb DL and around 10-15 UL. But this is crap.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Amd4life:
I have the same issue. Using 2.7.0.0 teamwin recovery

If I have a touch wiz KK ROM(stock, infamous, xnote, Jedi), my data cycles in and off every 5 minutes or so, as if its sleeping. All have the same issue on my phone.

I have Odin full stock multiple times to try and clear the modem. Just odd

If I use a AOSP KK ROM (gummy, slim, temasek), I have no data connection issues at all. I prefer TW due to the better sound volume and lack of touch sound distortion, but the darn data is annoying.

Is there a buildprop setting I can maybe tweak in touch wiz to get the data connection to stick?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] dobbs3x:
That's interesting, I have the same issue but I tried slim aosp and I thought it still gave me the issue. I'll flash another aosp today and see if my data stops doing that.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] Scarinzi:
I also have this problem. I have an excellent 4G LTE signal everywhere I go but at times I will lose data even though it shows I have data. I have to cycle on and off airplane mode to make it work.

I'm on stock kk never rooted. I was also having this problem before the kk update. I was hoping updating would help. It didn't.

I took it to local T-Mobile yesterday and they looked it over and checked software. Everything checked out.

This is very frustrating when you're in the middle of doing something and lose Data.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] tramane:
Its the new modem theres somethign wonky about it.

[Galaxy S III Mini General] xxdevxx:
Have you ever found yourself hooked up to the charger at least once or twice a day? Well this is an extremely easy fix for our Galaxy 4G Exhibits! First of all you will need to have root obviously.

Second you will have to flash any of the variants of CM11.

Third you'll have to download all of the following apps

- Antutu Battery Saver

-Battery Saver

-CPU Tuner

-Lux Light (for best results switch display to -50)

I followed the instructions in the thread that describes how to update to NAE from MF9 while keeping the MF9 bootloader: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2277480

I was on MF9 stock rooted (with TWRP recovery installed when I flashed the NAE modem via odin 3.0.7, not sure if that makes a difference).

All the steps seemed to go okay. As far as I can tell the versions look good. However, the device is super sluggish at times, especially the dialer. Sometimes I have trouble waking it. I can't toggle the WiFi on. I have not set the hotspot mod or sd card mod yet.

The device is essentially unusable. Every so often I will get a request to force close some app (like the dialer) because it is hanging.

I tried repeating the steps described in the thread above over and still get the same behavior. The second time I also did some more checking in the intermediary MK2 step after everything was set up and I did notice that sometimes it was doing the weird hanging problems there too (i.e. even before the NAE rom was installed).

I had no problems whatsoever with the device when it was on MF9.

Help! Any ideas??
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] daniel4653:
Have you tried to install the nae modem. Its been observed that you need to install it in order to get full use of a NAE rom
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] myphone12345:
Yes, that is the very first step in the instructions. For good measure I even went back and reinstalled the NAE modem (even though it appeared to be successful).

I am thinking maybe I should go back and try to install/downgrade back to the MF9 modem to see if that would help.

Update: Everything seems okay now. I went back and flashed the MK2 modem, then reinstalled the MK2 ROM, then the NAE modem, booted into MK2 to see that it was okay, then installed the NAE rom. So far so good :fingers-crossed:

You could flash a MF9 stock rooted zip. Or Odin MF9 tar.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] DJSmoove:
I had the same exact problem and I found a way to fix that so I can run NAE.. I read someone post and I just did these step to have a perfect running NAE stock rom.

Steps How To Install NAE (Odex) properly with MF9 Bootloader

1. Back-up apps with Titanium Backup or MyBackup

2. Download the following tools and files to have on-hand

A. Odin 3.07

B. CF-Root

C. Philz Recovery [I used the latest one 6.41.6.tar.md5]

D. MF9.tar Official

E. MK2 Modem.tar (No Firmware)

F. Stock MK2 Odex ROM (No Bootloader)

G. NAE Modem.tar (No Firmeware)

H. Stock NAE.Odex Rom (No Bootloader)

I. SDCard Fix for NAE

J. Hotspot Mod NAE (Odex) [If you want Hotspot]

3. Put the following files on your External SDcard from Step 2 (E,G,H,I)

4. Start by opening up Odin 3.07, and flashing MF9.tar (Make sure everything is unchecked but Auto Reboot)

5. Once flashed let the phone boot up and skip all the steps of setting up your phone. Then check to see if your baseband and firmeware is on MF9. If thats all okay completely shut down your phone.

6. Go back to Download Mode and to Odin. Then flash CF-Root (Make sure everything is unchecked but Auto Reboot)

7. Once its booted shut down and back to Download Mode and to Odin then flash MK2 Modem.tar (Make Sure Everything Is Unchecked) Once that is done Hold the power button for 10 seconds.

8. Boot up and check your baseband and firmeware in About Phone. Once everything is okay shut down the phone.

9. Boot your phone into Philz Recovery Mode then find and Install Stock MK2 Rom

10. Boot up the phone and skip all the steps setting up your phone, Do the lockscreen fix shut down your phone.

11. Go back to Odin and Flash NAE.Modem tar file (Make sure everything is unchecked) Hold the power button for 10 seconds

12. Reboot into Philz Recovery Do the wipe to do a Clean Install of Rom

13. Install Stock NAE Rom then Boot Up

14. Shut down and go back to recovery and install the SDCard Fix and Hotspot then Reboot

Then you can get Triangle Away and wipe your counter clean.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] CatFood:
This is what I did and it worked perfect several times without problems.

(Optional part if you want to reset custom ROM counter)

1. Odin flashed a full stock firmware (ROM and all) MF9 or below (I had MDL tar already so just used that)

2. CF-Root the installed rom.

3. Run Triangle Away to reset boot counter.

(Main part)

1. Odin flash TWRP recovery .tar and did a full wipe.

2. Odin flash Mf9 AIO .tar

3. Odin flash MK2 modem only .tar (NAE won't stick unless you do this first)

4. Odin flash NAE modem only .tar

5. Odin flash TWRP (You can use other recoveries for some other ROMS, but most NAE roms including Sacs Custom ROM and NAE stock rooted need TWRP to install properly or you get no cell. I haven't tried it on CWM, but know when I tried it wouldn't work on PhilZ Touch)

7. full data wipe using the recover for good measure (not necessary, it should be clear already)

6. Flash your ROM in recovery (I used stock rooted NAE)

8. Flash your add-ons, mobile hotspot, boot screen, kernel , etc. (I just flashed the odex mobile hotspot for NAE and a boot screen, left the kernel at stock because of a camera issue ktoonsez seemed to be presenting)

9. Reboot and enjoy.

(Note, only if using NAE stock rooted)

If your using the NAE stock rooted you will need and want to run and let the pre-installed supersu app disable Knox, then using an SE linux status changing app from the app store you will need to temporarily change your SE linux status. From there you can install the Xposed Framework and Wanam Xposed. In Wanam Xposed you can set the SE linux status so it wont reactivate after a reboot. Now you can uninstall the SE linux switcher you downloaded before. Next you can download an app that will do it, or manually fix the SD card write permissions. Finally using a root exploring file manager you can fix the permissions to make the lock screen work.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] djtheraven:
Nobody had this happen? Now all three cores 1-3 the min changes by itself
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] daneurysm:
I have been noticing that on all AOSP derived ROMs since I got the phone. I've also noticed that I absolutely can not use any governor except Interactive. Changing governors is a guaranteed lockup within 10 minutes of the phone going to sleep.

I've just been setting min to 300 and ignoring that it seems to peg itself at whatever I have the max set to. My battery life is still very good, so, I'm not entirely sure what is actually going on.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3] bobbyphoenix:
I don't have any lockup issues, but I have noticed Core 1 and Core 4 both are used pretty much in sync. I have a CPU gauge in my status bar, and on 4.3 Core 1 would alway be active the most. Now on 4.4.2 I see Core 1 and Core 4 both used about the same, and at the same times. All four get going pretty good faster now too. It's having no effect on my battery, but the phone is running much smoother overall, so I'm very happy with it.

Regretting buying a phone just because of crappy camera? And you feel cheated? It's not like Sony forced you to buy it and said its camera is excellent.
