Anyone heard of any tethering mods yet??
[Sprint LG G3] vincey2kr1:
Just using Fox fi tethering over USB and blue tooth since there's no root
[Sprint LG G3] JCJ77:
Nice. Didn't think of that.

How well is it working? Anything special need to be done to get it active? Are you able to connect your other devices to it?
[Sprint LG G3] vincey2kr1:
Just pda net on the laptop. Go to Fox fi website gives a good explanation, pretty easy actually. Blue tooth speeds aren't very fast. Haven't tried to connect my note 10.1 2014 yet
[Sprint LG G3] fgcchevy:
Have any idea if u can get Chromecast working with this? I'm using my gs3 til there is a root for a tether mod. Tia

[Sprint LG G3] fenguepay:
Check out the pricing guide on the gentoo wiki. In reality getting free tethering is usually as simple as changing a hidden setting via sql that tells the phone to tether without checking for a data plan. This is only possible with root. I did this on my g2
[Sprint LG G3] matthew0776:
Use AllCast app ...works great with chromecast
[Sprint LG G3] ScrapMaker:
I believe they were referring to Wi-Fi tethering. On a side-note, I don't understand why people want AllCast and similar apps -- I'd rather be able to send all my audio or my screen to a remote player. Like on my HTC One, "Media Output," allowed me to play Spotify or anything my phone played through headphones -- on my various DLNA receivers in the house. I've found a few apps that can sort of mimic this, but they require root to access the audio stream.
[Sprint LG G3] pdaddy:
You can try using Connectify (google it) and while sharing your Internet to your phone using Foxfi or PdaNet over usb, use Connectify to share it using your Laptop's wifi.

Just an idea, but it seems it might work.
[Sprint LG G3] SilverZero:
Just to keep the wheels turning: jcase said on Twitter yesterday that he has root on Sprint G3, but he won't release until mid-August "at the earliest." He's got a lot of other projects going (Fire, OnePlus One, Sunshine, Blackhat conference, etc) and it will be a paid root method, so don't hold your breath for an exact date, just start saving your pennies.
[Sprint LG G3] engine95:
Well... he's staying true to what he said a couple weeks ago. At least we're gonna have root! :)
[Sprint LG G3] :
Has root, won't release for a more weeks, lol ok this sounds like a power trip if I've ever heard one. Oh well.
[Sprint LG G3] Will32:
From what ive understood, they had root on the sprint g3 for awhile now but want to get the bootloader unlocked before releasing it. Which makes sense to me, id like to have a custom recovery for backing up before doing things that require root.

[Sprint LG G3] justinswidebody:
Well when we do have root, I should have the hotspot mod ready to go for some tether.
[Sprint LG G3] engine95:
I'm pretty sure there's actually 2 roots for us. One is a backup just in case.

It was mentioned early on in the other forum

[Sprint LG G3] cpusmc:
Hey all. Cant wait wait for root so i can get back to internet tethering. Im on sprint. Problem is this will be my first root, when it is released. Would like help from anyone if thats alright. Thanks in advance. BTW i love the community here
[Sprint LG G3] SilverZero:
I'll bet it will be a simple click-click process. Worst case scenario you'd need adb set up on your computer if you don't already have it. It's possible it could even be an apk, just install and click. But you'll have plenty of help if you need it.
[Sprint LG G3] cpusmc:

We're packing things up right now for a release for sprint root.

Testing is next, then release possibly later today depending on availability. My internet has been up and down and up and down all day, so that might delay things a bit.

Super awesome shout out to jcase, playfulgod, and autoprime, without all of them this would not be possible!

WATCH THE VIDEO AT THE BOTTOM! I just installed root on my sprint g3 and using this app I have access to all kind of menus. Modem, frequency, radio, display ect.. Almost all the 385 items listed in the hidden menu took you to some kind of setting. I'm not one to bump my own post but there is a ton of stuff here. Way above and beyond what I've seen posted for hidden menus. My knowledge in this stuff is limited but I know there is a ton of useful settings in there.

I was able to access some menu's I haven't seen elsewhere. I have the Sprint G3.

[Sprint LG G3] comzee:
Now that I have my phone rooted I can't seem to get tethering working. I've tried the "WiFi Tether Router" and "Wifi Tether" apps. They both seem to work fine, I grant them root permissions and they start, although my PC is not seeing the SSID. Anybody else getting this?
[Sprint LG G3] sinisin:
If you have an app the will write sqlite you can change one value and enable native tether that Sprint can't see. I'll track down the link in a few. Its a N5 mod. I did it. Although I havent tested yet
[Sprint LG G3] Stl Dark Knight:
Hell yes. Root for our G3's. Got Adaway installed. All is working wonderful. Thank you devs!

[HOW TO] Tether Blocking Fix

This worked great on my Sprint S3, so I'm assuming it works killer here too.

Edit: No dice. Sprint patched it. The value resets to 1 after reboot.
[Sprint LG G3] comzee:
Thanks for the link. I followed the directions and it half worked. It let's me enable it, throws up the windows about tethering and what not. Then after 2 seconds it says "Unable to connect to data network. You may not be subscribed to the data plan for Hotspot and USB tether service. Do you want to see subscription option?"

And if I hit cancel, it disables the tether.

UPDATE:

After I reboot phone it keeps setting the string "tether_dun_required" back to "1" instead of "0" ...... hmmmm
[Sprint LG G3] cpusmc:
So i rooted and installed supersu, now how do i get internet tethering through wifi?
[Sprint LG G3] bernechad:
Here's what I did to get wifi tethering to work:

Installed WiFi Tether Router

play store link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.snclab.wifitetherrouter

or I'm sure some people can find free versions

Change settings in WiFi Tether Router:

Interface wlan0

Method 2

Channel 1

Encryption wpa2-psk

"No Firmware Reload" <- UNCHECKED

After that, start it up and connect. It's been running fine for the past 30 minutes, but does not display sent and received data in the app.

I know it's not native, but it works well.

[Sprint LG G3] thunderwagn:
So, to those who are new to root, unlocked boot, etc. Root alone or unlocked bootloader does NOT auto enable free tethering. There are apps you can use, or you can wait till someone has a workaround for the built in app. (someone has already mentioned they are working on it)... Just sayin ?
[Sprint LG G3] mrush:
The clockwork mod USB tether has been working wonderfully for me... I wonder if using USB lessens the possibility of the phone overheating. I remember wifi tether would make my Note 2 overheat and would eat up battery life.

This has worked for me on my Note 2 4.4.2 and the LG G3 as of last night's root! It's like $3 I think but worth the purchase. Check their website or use these settings

For LG G3 using this config

Interface wlan0

Method 2

Channel 1

Encryption wpa2-psk

"No Firmware Reload" <- UNCHECKED

and it works fine.

There is a native unlock but I don't feel like editing too much on the phone without recovery!

Weird, I just got the g3 tweaksbox and I cannot find this setting. All I see is "Hide Brightness Slider" but no option to show it....?

I must be on a different version. If it was blatantly that easy to find, I would have found it already.

On Sprint you need an app to access the hidden menu. Its called ShortCut Master. Then you follow the guides to change fps here in the forums. LcdDensity Test was where I changed to 60.

But I also found another option called ThermalMitigation, which was near the bottom, is it different from Thermal Daemon Mitigation?

I have seen these on other LG G3 optimization threads, but I wasn't sure if I should change these or not.

What would the difference(s) between Thermal Daemon Mitigation and ThermalMitigation be? Should I turn those two and High Temperature Property on?

Also, I found this: LgSrvDynamicLcdRefresh, which affects FPS, similar to this thread: http://xdaforums.com/lg-g3/general/disabling-low-fps-ui-result-fluid-phone-t2842947

It would be helpful to know how the root works. Just having su binaries would not change the power consumption. Maybe stump root installs some other script. Try checking the init scripts for clues and getting in touch with the devs
