[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] cknicker:
wanted to report that the 'Wifi Tether Router' app is working for me. had to tweak default settings per the developer:

Interface wlan0

Method 3 - HostApd

Encryption wpa2-psk

Channel 1

Drivers nl80211

"HostApd Patch" <- CHECKED

"No Firmware Reload" <- UNCHECKED

"No Disable WiFi" <- CHECKED (ONLY if you can't see the WiFi Network)

There is a bit of delay after first connecting to the hotspot; got a 'no internet connection' but after 30 seconds or so it connected.

Also, the app displays 'loading' at times, which freezes the interface. If you hit the running app key (bottom left button) and go back

into the app, it is responsive again.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] cubanBword:
Thanks, worked well. Had to check disable wifi box for network to be visible.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] OnFireSurfer:
Didn't work for me...then it did!

Re-installed, tried this. Still nothing. Was just going to ask for help and tried it again (a couple days later)... boom. Works. Not sure what needed reset either on my computer or phone...but the above is correect. Dev suggested I uncheck HostApd Patch. I did that prior as well and kept it that way. ALL WORKS.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] lovekeiiy:
mine is working fine with HostApd unchecked and was on channel 11 (I thought I had it on 1). Also, I find I need to have something other than the default SSID and password for the any of the clients to connect.

The biggest issue is my Surface Pro is switching the the limited connectivity (IP 169.xxx.xxx.xx). I think this has to do more with the phone switch between 3G and LTE, which use to not be an issue.

My only disappointment is that the do not broadcast SSID does not seem work on the Note 4; it didn't work on the Note 2 either.

With Galaxy Tools and Root, do I still need to the Router app?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] lovekeiiy:
Nope. You only need one of them for WiFi hotspot.

GalaxyTools from what I read, also gives other things you can do your phone. WiFi Tether Router is just for WiFi hotspot and is a paid app, where as GT is free. I don't know how well GT developers in maintaining the app for bugs and updates, but WTR are active; you don't see to many bug updates because it's fairly mature app, but they do update it fairly quickly for Android updates or some new devices.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] Uniquebarbee:
NO just hit the button reboot and enjoy

---------- Post added at 03:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:07 PM ----------

The updates for GT are terrific they have the latest phones in mind ie Note 4 edge ect bottom line user preference pay don't pay or find another way
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] btb601:
I've used both and like both, but for different reasons.

Wifi Tether

Is a paid app, but cheap @ $3.00

Works great and stays updated.

Only wireless hotspot, no USB tethering

I've used it over one year, not one issue

GalaxyTools 4 root user

Free - 0 dollars

Works great and stays updated

Can use the USB tethering

Find it on Google Play Store (search for: idone)

I've used it for a month now and not issues as of yet.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] cknicker:
No prob; Thanks for the link to 'Galaxy Tools'. I'm going to give that a try and see if it works better than the WiFi Tether Router' app. It seems nicer that it is using the native hotspot. I couldn't seem to connect Chromecast to the Wifi Tether app so maybe that will work with the Galaxy Tools approach. (Streaming movies via Chromecast to my TV with Chromecast has alot of halts and pauses with the Android playstore movies so I want to try hooking Chromecast to my Note's wifi rather than my home Wifi.)
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] lovekeiiy:
I've done this with the NoteII using WiFi Tether Router. The trick, the Note becomes the router. It's no longer a client of the network; I know it's odd since you can still do internet activity, but it has no IP with the network you created with the hotspot. So, you need a another device to setup up the Chromecast such as another Andriod Mobile device or laptop. Then you need to use that device to be able to choose things to stream to it.

My initial thoughts, this will remain the case with GalaxyTools.

I was able to sling BBC iPlayer to the Chromecast for a bit. But something happened and my VPN app and WiFi Tether don't play nice together at the same time on the same device. Maybe this is not the case with GalaxyTools.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] Tikal769:
Is this still working for everyone? I have tried galaxy tools and it will not get the native app to work. It keeps sending me to Call sprint to add the hot spot capability.

I have also tried wifi tether router and no matter what recommended tweaks i have used, its not broadcasting.

Any ideas? did the latest minor update from sprint mess this up?

Edit: Rooted Sprint Note 4.4.4
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] lovekeiiy:
I've used both, and they both work.

GalaxyTools requires you to go to the setup through GT and for the initial launch. It's probably a good idea to launch through it every time.

WiFi Tether Router:

interface: wlan0

method: 3-HostApd

drivers: nl80211

WiFi mode: WiFi - G (I've never tried N)

Channel: 1

Oddly enough, I found the settings that worked best were the exact same settings that I use the Galaxy Note 2.

In addition, I could have sworn that app was updated to have detect and set the settings for the Galaxy Note 4. You may want to try to uninstall, reboot phone, and reinstall.

I also found I needed to set SSID, password and encyrption type. The default and no encryption didn't work. I also found the do not broadcast SSID caused the clients not to connect.

I don't know if it was needed, but if you're going to use these kind of tools, it's usually a good idea to install BusyBox. A lot of people use the Linux applettes/tools for their applications. There's a free version. v1.22.1-stericson is working for me; I've use other versions that borked WiFI Tether Router, TrevE Mods WiFi Thether (on the GN2).

Don't forget to reboot after making changes in the WTR configuration. I find not everything takes till after a reboot. I also assume you granted permission to whatever SuperUser application you're using. The app does not root access.

Anyone had an update? Running Lollipop with Sprint as well and my simply reboots constantly. Unable to get Wi Fi Hotspot to work either.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] Adam1422:
try this!

The only think you need ahead of time is your MSL. This isn't too hard to get from Sprint customer service. Not sure if there is an app but all you have to do is call sprint and ask for it!

The steps:

Go to Dialer and enter ##DATA# (##3282#)

Press "Edit" then enter your MSL.

Click on APN Settings

For both "APN2 EHRPD internet" and "APN2 LTE internet" change APN Type from "default,mms" to "default,mms,dun"

After you enter the change, hit Menu -> Save before going to the next APN.

And that's it. That easy. It works for both Hotspot and USB tethering. Seems too easy, but that's all I had to do.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] Uniquebarbee:
There are several free apps to get MSL no Sprint calling required
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] songshan311:
Could you please provide one or two names of the apps? Thank you very much.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] Uniquebarbee:
MSL utility

MSL reader
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] kwazytazz:
Another easy way to get the msl code (if you have another spare phone)and have it emailed to you for archival purposes is activate old phone. Then reactivate the note 4. It will send you an email with the code with each activation. No need to bother customer service and get shot down
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] ray_longo:
Is by any chance your MSL Utility working post Lollipop?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] Uniquebarbee:

[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] risinnfallen77:
Neither of these methods are working for me.

I am a using a rooted note 4 with sprint. Even with all of the information entered correctly, WTR fails to display my network on any device. So I decided to use galaxy tools. But unfortunately, it just reboots. Any ideas or any other solutions?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] merkk:
did you try using the sqlite hack?
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] risinnfallen77:
I'm not familiar with that
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] merkk:
I dont remember off-hand where the link is, but if you google it I'm sure it'll turn up. You have to buy an app off the store - it was $4 i i think, make a simple edit to a database, and your wifi hotspot should work. Seems worth the $4 to me.

Wifi Tether Router 6.0.9 works but disconnects after a few minutes

Hello,

I have a Sprint Samsung S5 on Lollipop. I am using the specific settings that he has for Samsung S5 on Lollipop. It works but after a few minutes the wifi disappears. It is no longer visible from the laptop/tablet that is connected and it only reappears if I disable/enable again Wifi Tether Router.

I have already tried all of the following:

a. Wifi Settings -> Advanced -> Keep Wifi on during sleep (Always On)

b. Wifi Settings -> Advanced -> Smart network switch = OFF

c. More Networks – Mobile Networks -> Connection Optimizer = OFF

d. Power saving modes are all disabled.

e. Noticed that the Connections Optimizer service was still running even though I've turned it OFF, so I then installed Titanium and froze both Connections Optimizer service and the Connections Optimizer Update service.

f. Did a *#0011# -> Service mode -> Menu -> Wifi -> Wifi Power Save Mode = OFF. Rebooted.

Still after all of this the Wifi Tether Router disconnects after 2 to 3 minutes. Has anyone figured out how to fix this issue? Developer is no help, he only says "not app problem" in pigeon English.

Thx,

Bob
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] Mentor10:
Same issues as above. Developer says that everything should be fine. Must be my phone. WTF ever. Was working great on my S3. Sounds like he hasn't tested on an S5 with lollipop!

Better way to do this !

Wifi tether is garbage, it was always causing an issue with my google play services & adblock and it a big drain on battery. try this method to ENABLE YOUR NATIVE HOTSPOT WITH OR WITHOUT ROOT ! ! ! ! , credit to droidviews:

Method 1: Enable WiFi Tethering without Root

The first thing you need is your MSL code, call or chat and tell them you're going overseas, of have an MMS continuing problem, or need to re-provision your phone. If your phone is paid off they will give it out no problem, if you owe a balance it may take more convincing or you can find an app that tells you your MSL code. Try a few times if they're stubborn.

Now open the dialer and enter ##DATA# (##3282#)

Click on the Edit button in the popup and enter your MSL code and click OK.

Now navigate to APN settings from the Mobile Networks menu and open APN2 EHRPD Internet and APN2 LTE internet individually and change APN Type to default,mms,dun.

Save the settings in both the APN configurations and reboot the device.

The native hotspot works way better, no more google play services issue for me, and the phone runs cool and less battery drain! ! ! !

[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] thunderbyrd01:
FYI - I'm T-Mobile using the Note 4 running Lollipop. I don't know if they have had a recent update but I have it working with only one tweak. I clicked on configure and added the numbers 123 to the end of the username and it's working great. It looks like this: WIFITether-AP123. That is all I changed. I couldn't believe it because on the last Note 4 I had I had to change the APN and settings.

[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] silenteffectsllc:
For sure, I've always had issues with this on my note 4 (note 2 wifi tether always worked great). But running the galaxy tools and simply unlocking the native hotspot has been worlds easier and smoother this time around. That said much appreciated to the dev of Wifi Tether though, it is a great app typically.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] sabreem:
Same here, and I've been trying to get my NAT set up up for a while. If anyone is able to make it work, or if you are aware of another way to set up wireless tethering with an open NAT please let us know here. I've been using my phone for Xbox live connections, and a closed NAT isn't what you want for any multiplayer game.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 General] Gedrean:
I wanted to suggest on here - I've gotten this working with Marshmallow and found that there was some bugginess in LP and MM where Wifi Tether Router would repeatedly disconnect WiFi after a few minutes.

There's a service called ItsOn in the Sprint world that handles the connection optimizer and a few other features related to Sprint's Prepaid options.

Using a Root File Explorer of some kind, one can navigate to the / (root) directory, then to carrier, then find "itson_enabled". Rename that file to "itson_disabled" and reboot the phone. Afterwards, ItsOn is disabled in ##DATA# and WiFi Tether Router doesn't disconnect anymore.

TL;DR: /carrier/itson_enabled rename to /carrier/itson_disabled and reboot. Fixes WTR dropping WiFi.

ok so I have posted a few times about both apps, but seeing as some really cool watchfaces have come out that use smooth second hands, I wanted to make a video to show a comparison of graphic-intensive watches with inbetween frame animations running with both apps!

Devices shown are Samsung Galaxy S4 and Moto 360.

The awesome watchface shown is Jarvis 2.0.

In both cases, i have turned on all smooth seconds settings and tags for both apps #DWFSS# / {drss}.

[Moto 360] Max_Pain:
Installed it to see what the fuss was about. I don't like any of the included watches, and unliker Facer it does push in-app purchases on you (want custom backgrounds? pay, want some of the "nicer" watches? pay). So that was a little offputting.

However, the smooth animation is indeed smoother than Facer's. I imported a few of my Facer watches, (and after paying $0.99 for the "Premium" unlock) changed the second hand rotation to smooth and it's almost like my real Bulova with its silky smooth animation. So I'm going to continue using it for the meantime :)
