Requirements:

Root

SuperUser

ES Explorer

Description:

Resolves that annoying "Mobile data is not avaible or invalid SIM" when enabled Mobile Hotspot.

Procedure:

1. Open "ES File Explorer". Go to the left side in "Fast Access" in the "Tools" section and then enable "Root Explorer" to have root permissions on the file browser.

2. Remove the Oldest "TetheringProvision.apk" and "TetheringProvision.odex" in system/app and replace with "TetheringProvision.apk" in: system/app

check and set permission rw-r--r--

Pros: Work with another Carrier. :good:

Cons: Maybe not work well for at&t carrier, FC in ART Mode.

note: I'll post it in case someone needs it.

is there featured apk for the galaxy s5?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] CrunchPunch:
Thanks for posting this. I installed the APK but can't find the app anywhere. It doesn't show up under settings. Any clue as to what i can do to make this show up? Thanks so much.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] jdock:
You do not use the apk directly. The regular tethering app runs the provision check app, which asks at&t if your account is allowed to tether, itself. This replacement version just always says to allow the tethering.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] CrunchPunch:
Mine is gone from the settings menu somehow. Thanks for the response though.

Not working for me, what I'm doing wrong?

Hi Guys, I'm a noobe. I try to erase the Apps but it gives an Error, Do you have any other tip or any guide based on your experiences?

Yes, I rooted the phone with towolroot and it worked. The phone is an S5 G900a ATT version but it is in a different network than ATT, I'm based in Latin America. I have install superuser and it gives permission to ES explorer but it does not remove the app when I ask it to. Also I have try to replace it but I still have the same error.

Another noobe question, how do you give permission for rw-r--r--?

Thanks for the help.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] AustinVillan:
I got an error trying to remove the files using ES Explorer also. I purchased Root Explorer in the past so I was able to use that to remove the old files, copy in the new one and change the permissions. To update the permissions I went into Root Explorer and long-pressed on the file and selected Permissions. You can then remove the write options.

Unfortunately when I try to turn on tethering I get the error message: "Unfortunately, TetheringProvision has stopped." Has anyone else seen this error? I'm running the SM-G900A on T-Mobile.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] raphsabb:
Just want to confirm that it works on ATT S5 with Digicel in Haiti
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Mttron:
will this work on an S5 G900A ATT usa

I just purchased an SM-G900A ATT s5 from ebay and I am getting that dang Hotspot not available error also.

I am using a Straight Talk ATT sim so the phone does work well everything EXCEPT the HotSpot!

I am assuming this is because it is not unlocked? I haven't rooted it yet, but am considering trying your fix.

My main question other than is it NOT rooted is will this fix work on the G900A? the type in your image is a 'S5 2828'.

Thanks in advance!

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pim16aap2:
Hello,

I do not own a credit card, so I used my father's account for purchases in the Play Store. As his account is not my main account, I cannot make any in-app purchases. This has been a problem for me for a while, but finally Google added PayPal support!

The update didn't come directly, for me and after a while I got impatient. I tried updating Google Play manually, but there still wasn't a sign of PayPal to be seen. I then removed the update again and just waited until I got the official update. After quite a long while, I finally got the update. There was still no sign of PayPal, though.

Would there be a way to fix this?

Rooted: Yes

Custom ROM: ViperOneM8 1.7.1

Play Store: 4.8.20

Regards,

Pim
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
You must manually add your paypal account using google play from your computer. Then the option to pay with paypal will be available from the play store app on your phone

Add PayPal using your computer

Go to Google Play (play.google.com).

On an item’s detail page, click the price. If you’re downloading an app, choose a device from the drop-down.

On the payment screen, click the “Pay with” drop-down.

Select Add a new payment method.

Select PayPal. You’ll be taken to the PayPal site to sign in to your PayPal account.

Complete your purchase.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pim16aap2:
Thank you for your reply.

I didn't know I had to do this as many friends and family already had this option available, even though most of them didn't even have PayPal at all.

While trying to do this, I get a popup saying "redirecting to PayPal". After 10 minutes its message didn't change though.

EDIT: Nvm, I just tried it a few more times and it is working now, thank you very much.

maybe because of a region issue. Paypal is only available to some country.

I updated to the latest cingular rom from a stock T-Mobile UK Vario II, i have the device pretty much how i want it now but i cannot unlock the ext rom, all write protected tried all tweaks etc.

Now if i downgrade back to my stock rom will i then be able to use the ext rom or is this limitation down to hardware.

Thanks hope you understand my query
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] pof:
It is a rom limitation. As for now, only cingular roms seems to be different from the others for extrom unlocking.

Have a look at the "NOTE:" marked in bold, on this wiki page:

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Unhide_Extrom
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] dazzled:
cheers mate missed that in the wiki

So in theory i can downgrade to the t-mobile rom using boot loader and effectively reclaim the ext rom.

First of all, thanks for reading and sorry if I am in the wrong thread, if so, if you can point me which forum to go, I'd appreciate it.

Long story short, I have two blackberry, one for personal use and one for work, problem is that I need to get out of town for a few months and I dont want to bring both phones with me, so I am looking for a way to redirect all calls and sms to my personal phone, a friend of mine will have my work phone to recharge it or in case anything happens but I dont want him to manually send me all sms and I dont want to text anyone from my personal number to not confuse them (it should appear as I am texting from my work phone)

Here another problem: my friend doesnt have internet, I can easily redirect all the calls to my personal phone but not sms, at least not without an app that requires a wifi connection

do anyone have any idea what can I do ?

The touchwiz launcher has no such issue at all so it clearly seems to be some kind of software glitch.

[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gregbradley:
The differnces are either cosmetic or include/do not include certain apps to apply with local legislation. It also helps deliver updates on a global scale without everyone downloading at the same time. They can stagger the release. It makes sense to do this for many reasons.

All this makes no difference to phone performance. You can flash any regions FTF as long as its for your device (C6903 etc)

Does anybody know of an MHL to HDMI adapter that works with the Galaxy Tab S? I have one for my wife's Galaxy SIII that outputs video but does not charge the Galaxy Tab S 8.4 that I have - it recognizes power but has the little no charging symbol over the battery. Just curious if anyone knows of an adapter that does both, displays video and charges the Tab S?

Thanks.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dcoulombe:
Hi,

I have the "official" Samsung MHL to HDMI adapter that I bought for my Galaxy S3. This adapter works also with my Galaxy S4 and Galaxy Tab S.

IIRC, you have to plug things in that order for it to work :

- Power to the MHL adapter

- HDMI to the TV

- HDMI to the MHL adapter

- MHL to the Android device

At least, that's how I'm doing it and it works... HDMI is displayed AND the tab is charged. I tried with the charging adapter that came with the Tab S.

Hope this helps.

BTW, my adapter looks like this one :

[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] groaner:
I have a Fosmon adapter that does not work. Tried it your suggested way and nothing appears on the screen. You don't need to activate anything on the tab, do you?

I need this for next week. I wonder how fast amazon can get that one you use out to me.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HughesNet:
You need to use one specific for Samsung. Their pinout is different and a normal MHL adapter will not work on Samsung hardware.

[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HughesNet:

[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thefunkie1:
Well I guess I'll have to try the adapter that dcoulombe referenced on Amazon. The adapter I have is the Cirago version but I guess the adapter I have just doesn't pass along enough power to the tablet to actually charge it. It works fine otherwise, as in it outputs to the TV fine, just doesn't charge the tablet. I'm guessing the Samsung version must pass along more power through the adapter to the tablet.

Thanks for the feedback everyone.

Have you ever found fully working adapter/cable? I've tried these two:

[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xmilar:
No problem. Any chance you could test to see if it streams and charges simultaneously? That seems to be the problem with a lot of these MHL adapters they will play video no problem but often not charge at the same time which makes the battery drain insanely fast.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fletch33:
i am 99.99% sure that we are not going to see what we have all searched the ebay and internet world for unless Sammy makes it and since our device has aged now i doubt.

i spent over $100 extra trying items with no luck :(
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xmilar:
Sorry do you mean no cheap ebay amazon etc adapter will output video and charge at the same time. Only the adapter made by samsung will do this? I seen you with the same problem I had in another thread and am curious to what you have figured out.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fletch33:
i dont think you will find something to fully charge and video out. you will find charge at 1amp but that will just prolong your use but eventually run the battery out and you need to find video out with 2amp charge combined with Tab ability to recognize it which i do not believe you will find.
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xmilar:
So right now my adapter shows no sign of it actually doing any charging. Is it possible that it is charging at the 1amp but just not displaying it?

Is the samung adapter the only one that can accept the 1amp charge?

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roadrunnersk:
Hi everyone,

I've been a lurker on here, and post rarely, but I was wondering if I could get a bit of assistance. A friend of mine emailed me a Pandora app, said it was cool. Its a different design, version 1.7, labeled "Bad Seed Customs" on the front. Really slick interface, a bit slower than I'm used to, but its all dark so I'm good with it due to battery life savings.

It appears to have the same permissions as the market version of pandora.

How can I tell if its safe, and not like a keylogger or something? I installed it while on airplane mode and scanned it by Norton, it didnt flag it...but I'm still nervous. I like the app, just am paranoid. Apologies if this is a noob question!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jd1639:

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vin4yak:
Be it dark, light or of any color, it doesn't have any effect on battery life since our Nexus has a LCD panel.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wakamatsu:
Most likely it's safe but this kind of reflection should really occur before you install.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] roadrunnersk:
Hmm... didn't know there were no battery savings. Thank you for that info, noted. I do like the design though, a lot more than stock pandora.

I did think of this prior to installing; was in airplane mode, installed the app, scanned it, uninstalled, left airplane mode... it couldn't have really stolen data, right?

I also did google it, I didn't really find much. I found an old XDA thread, which had a ton of replies, so I'd say it would be fine if I had gotten it from there but the download link had been removed from the thread... the rest of the stuff is just like no-name sources saying "hey here's some candy, get in the van, download this file bro" kinda thing. Turns out that this version is no adds / unlimited skips, according to the google results, I'm assuming the Bad Seed Customs folks hacked the app... worries me more lol.

Talked to my buddy a minute ago, turns out he got the app from a buddy of his, who got it on some website... probably the google search results. Uhg, dilemmas.

At first I rooted it and it still worked ok, then I installed a custom recovery and used it to install this rom: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2555021 . It worked but I wasn't able to make or receive phone calls.

Currently, I can still get the phone to boot in odin mode and I can flash any stock rom, but I can't boot it in recovery mode or in normal mode. When I try to do so, the phone just stops at the screen with "Samsung GALAXY Ace 2 GT-I8160" written on it.
