[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smvueno:
Unfortunately that is not possible, since the latest update for SCL23 is LP 5.0 only.

Is it possible to add this switch by myself instead?

My idea is to locate the files that is controlling this number and just edit it away.

I'm still sitting here and fiddling with it, trying different things.

If anyone want some files from me just ask and i will post them.

I would really love to fix this, any other ideas? :confused:
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] *Detection*:
It is LP 5.0 with the switch

I was thinking you could figure out what that switch changes, and add the code yourself
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smvueno:
I will try and look at a different ROM SystemUi and see if i can make any sense out of it.

Or maybe i will have to install The same ROM i have in a Emulator on my computer for quicker modding.

I just changed:

Dimens.xml

<dimen name="battery_text_marginStart">0.0dip</dimen>
<dimen name="battery_text_size">0.0dip</dimen>

Rebuilded.

Replaced the SystemUI, with 0644 permissions.

Also wiped Dalvik Cache & Cache.

And fixed permissions.

Restarted

To see if it will go away, i will see if it works tomorrow morning.

Its upgrading all the apps now and I've got to sleep.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] angryphoton:
Just bought an brand new Note 4 from B&H Photo after a long deliberation between the Note 4 and 5. Anyway it is the AT&T model, unlocked and running Kitkat 4.4.4.

Now the update has downloaded, and it starting to nag, I did run the script that is supposed to prevent this but no dice, anyway still needs my permission (I think) to run the update. I have started reading the 53 page long thread about what happened to your phone once you upgraded to Lollipop, sorry but I do not have that much time to read through 53 pages. I did read a few and its a mixed bag so far.

So, should I upgrade or not to 5.0.1 ? Just a simple yea or nay.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] floatingtrees:
Just wait for 5.1.1, I personally had a lot of battery issues with 5.0.1, the script you ran blocks updates from downloading but there's something else you need to block that's not on the list but is later mentioned on that thread so read through it since other people experienced the same thing your are now, as for the downloaded update I believe that you can clear it from the recovery menu, if not you may have to reset your phone

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MVLJR:
Anyone else have a stock Nexus 6 with 5.1.1 and root.......... with the ability to reboot?

I've been going into Titanium Backup to reboot every night before I go to bed.

I have a routine, I update my apps, then I reboot every night before bed.

It's becoming a PITA to go into Titanium backup everytime to reboot the phone.

Is there any easier way to do this? I know with the custom ROMs it's often built into the power button as an option. I've had much success with the stock ROM rooted, so I really don't want to screw with anything.

Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

Thank you-

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bweN diorD:
you can use llama to reboot automatically at a set time, location, or other perimeters of your choice.

i have mine set to reboot about an hour before work every morning. no input from me. when it gets to the specified time, it does its thing :)

its also pretty handy for turning wifi and bt on or off when you enter and leave areas where you would use it.

i also use it to change the vol based on my location.

its a vn app to automate many things for you, and its not retarded to setup like tasker.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MVLJR:
Thank you all very much for your suggestions.

I'll try each of these.

I just have to figure out how to patch the security update to my rooted stock phone.

I was told OTA updates WILL NOT work at all.

So it looks like I have to flash a totally new 5.1.1 update to my phone, aka stagefright fix
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scryan:
open terminal emulator and run "reboot now" as root?

Serious answer, gravity box and/or custom rom for expanded power menu with multiple reboot options.
[About XDA developers] rockpaperlizard:
Whenever I change the forum theme, it shows the theme for a brief moment, and then goes back to the default theme. Are the forum themes broken?

Also, I tried viewing one post that said it was not compatible with the default theme, but when I tried to view the post in a different theme, it just quickly flashed it on the screen and then returned to a page saying the post was not compatible.
[About XDA developers] the_scotsman:
The themes should be working. Are you using some kind of popup/ad blocker? Try logging out, delete cache/cookies etc?
[About XDA developers] rockpaperlizard:
Yes to the ad blocker, but tested without blocking anything from xda-developers.com, and still does not work. Does xda-developers.com require interactions with third-party servers (besides the ajax libraries) to work correctly? Logging out, deleting cache/cookies/etc did not correct the issue.

Do you get working themes if you only allow xda-developers.com and nothing else?
[About XDA developers] rockpaperlizard:
I tried turning off javascript, and that allows the themes to work. As an added bonus, xda-developers.com is about 10 times faster! I'm not sure what, if any, functionality is lost.

I'm still willing to help with the javascript version of the site if you like. Note that in the javascript version, it always refreshes and then appends styleid=18 to the URL (regardless of the style chosen). HTH.
[About XDA developers] rockpaperlizard:
A followup: tested again, and the themes still do not work. XDA always reloads itself and appends style=18 to the URL.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] Robalboa:
Just a quick how to on unlocking the Hotspot on any lollipop version of tw. Root is Not needed

First you must get your msl

There are numerous ways to get it the best way is call sprint tech support and tell them "band 41 is disabled and you need to enable it. Your friends s5 gets it and he has sprint spark. Mines disabled"

They will send you to advanced tech support who will give you the msl and walk you through enabling band 41. {just go along with him and say goodbye you got the msl now}

Next type in ##data# (on the phone dialer pad)

Click edit

Type in msl

Go to apn

Select the first apn EHRPD and go to type

Change it from (default, mms) to (default, mms, dun) no spaces

Click the menu up top right and hit save

{hitting save is mandatory}

Next got to the lte apn

Goto type

And make the same changes also remember HIT SAVE

Now reboot and turn on your Hotspot

Tadaaaa a.

Note Hotspot will not work on airrave. At least this method. But it works flawlessly otherwise. Hopes this helps

Works on All tw lollipop versions including OG1

Enjoy

Sprint GS5 Moars 6.2
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] Jim M:
Yep, worked great for me after updating to OG1

Thanks
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] raylonr:
What does "all tw lolipop versions" mean?

Will it work on my new sprint S5 nonrooted G900pupu3BOG1?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] Robalboa:
Yes but it don't work on airrave but will anywhere else. Perfectly

Sprint GS5 Moars 6.2
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] Mako261B:
Yep, it works (with caveat)

First time post here (long time XDA lurker, though). A BIG THANK YOU robalboa for this excellent post. Your instructions are spot on and easy to follow.

I can confirm this is working on my unrooted, stock Sprint Galaxy S5 G900P running OG1 lollipop. One caveat, however: any incoming call breaks the hotspot. Will post if I note any other issues. Thank you again!
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] Danv561:
Hello, thank you for sharing info, like to know if your can send pics of steps on how to get wifi tether due to i dont see options for S5. Thank you
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] Robalboa:
Follow the instructions. The Hotspot is in settings. It's built in no app.

Works perfect but not on airrave

Sprint GS5 Moars 6.2
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] Danv561:
Happy Halloween and thank you for posting reply, like to note does S5 have to have active data because S5/Phone Wholesaler I want to give to my girlfriend which she will have active Wi-Fi tether hotspot already installed? Thank you so much and again happy Halloween to everyone;)Thank you so much and again happy Halloween to everyone
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] Robalboa:
Yes the s5 does not have svdo (simultaneously voice and data)

So when you get a incoming call it kills the Hotspot until the call ends

While the S3 was the last samsung to support svdo

Sprint GS5 Moars 6.2
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] EzDuzit:
This will be perfect till I get around to rooting my new S5. But I'm kind of confused here. I already have my msl so don't need to call a Sprint tech. And the way I read post #1, the real reason to call was to get your msl# and after hanging up with the tech, next thing it says is, "Next type in ##data# ".

So I hope this doesn't sound foolish and maybe it's just because I already have my msl and didn't need to call Sprint, but where do I type in ##data#? I thought maybe the phone dialer but realized that's only numeric. :confused:

EzDuzit
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] Robalboa:
so sorry type it in the dialer pad on the phone.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] EzDuzit:
I thought it was the dialer and now I do feel a little foolish, but I'll get over it.

Works Perfectly on OG1.

I just want to thank everyone for putting this out there. I just got my S5 today and really wanted to unlock the tether like I had on my S4. I also didn't want to root it quite yet because I wanted to keep knox for a while in case something is messed up with the phone. I tried this and it worked flawlessly.

If anyone is wondering I'm on OK4 and it worked. I got my MSL by doing a chat with sprint and saying I was interested in development options and then once I got to a rep I just asked for it.

native hotspot but no data

Hi so I tried this method, got the msl, did everything correct including save both entries if dun and it did turn on the hotspot and I was successful at connecting a device to it but the device couldn't connect to the web. Basically the method allows me to see the Wi-Fi network and connect but there is no data on the connected device

Hotspot error

On January 7th I followed your instructions to activate the Hotspot on my Sprint OK4 S5. The Hotspot worked fine that day. Two days later I attempted to access the Hotspot and received an error message "you are not subscribed to Hotspot. Would you like to view how to activate Hotspot?" Do I need to reset it per your instructions again? Is this something I will need to do continuously? One more question, what does TW Lollipop mean? Thanks for your response.

Galaxy S5 with Marshmallow 6.0.1

I just received the Marshmallow 6.0.1 update from Sprint and I tried to activate the Hotspot as I did with Lollipop, but I didn't get access to the APN Type. I used the same codes and I gained access as before, but the APN Type was greyed out.

Is there a fix for this? Your response will be greatly appreciated!
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] redberkey:
I was able get the hotspot working by entering the ##3282# going to view>apn setting>apn2 lte internet> apn type and added ",dun" to the end of "default,mms". Make sure to save and reboot. I am rooted and use twrp custom recovery. I didnt have to enter my MSL.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] Mako261B:
Has anyone else had experience in trying the hotspot trick with the new Marshmallow update (6.0.1) on the Sprint Galaxy S5? I'd like to do the upgrade, but not if it is going to cost me the free hotspot. I am not rooted. Thanks in advance.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] csmasn:
I did, in my 2 phones. At first I had to reapply like 2 times, then it stuck modded.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] Mako261B:
Awesome. Thanks for that response. As soon as they get around to pushing the marshmallow update for my Sprint, GS5, I'm taking it. Was just scared to death of losing the "dun" hotspot trick!
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] leond:
I've upgraded to Marshmallow and now ##3282# does not work. Do you know how to enable hidden menus again in 6.0.1?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] jt323bd:
I too could not change the APN type. Have they secured this vulnerability? has anyone defeated this?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] Mako261B:
Whoa...perfect timing on those last 2 posts. Sprint JUST THIS MORNING pushed the Marshmallow update to my GS5, but after seeing the last 2 posts, I'm holding off on doing the upgrade until we have a clear solution. Thanks everyone.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] csmasn:
Did you have any custom rom before? ##DATA# still working, just now you need your MSL

To modify your apns you have to select View not Edit.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] jt323bd:
No, under view it has all APNs grayed out (unopenable as well). Perhaps if I had root access it wouldnt, but i dont.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] leond:
Yes, I am coming from MOAR 7.0 and something did not go well

not just ##3282# does not work but also

I no longer have menu for uicc unlock and no GSM option in mobile networks.

No hotspot option in system settings...

phone became very laggy on MOAR, I've Flashed OK4 via ODIN accidently, then flashed PCA, did factory reset including internal storage format, then rooted. Then decided to enable hotspot and discovered all those issues.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] csmasn:
Try factory reset to Hotspot in Settings, few others has the same issue. About GSM and others, those are locked in Stock roms.

---------- Post added at 06:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:37 PM ----------

What about root it?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] redberkey:
OK, i know this is a ways after and most people have prob figured out the hotspot mod. However, from snooping around it has come to my understanding that if you take the OTA update for marshmallow you are able to edit your APN via ##data# and selecting the "view" tab. If you update by flashing through ODIN the APN tabs are grayed out and you are unable to edit.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] jt323bd:
Which hotspot mod works? I've never odined my phone but tabs are all grayed. I believe this method simply no longer works.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] n211cr:
Also wondering the same, I ODIN'd the PCA stock and have yet to get the hotspot working. What method has been working in this case?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] lordbenson2003:
Hello, please is there any other way to get the msl#? I don't live in the US. Thanks
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] nyckid211:
http://android-apk.org/apk/com.idone.galaxymenu/3.1.8/mrmaine30/idoneapps/

This app requires root and will show you your msl. I got my msl from sprint but this will also do the trick. Just look for the appropriate field. BTW, you don't even have to type ##data#, this app has the built in functionality to allow your native Hotspot. Just click the "Enable Native Hotspot" button. When you're done, scroll down to the bottom and buy the Dev a coffee (or beer).

On stock rooted PCA.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] bettzysdaddy:
I just did this mod on a stock, rooted, deodexed CPA ROM and it works so far. I did an OTA to MM CP2 then Odin TWRP to then Odin the CPA boot loader and modem and TWRP flash the stock, deodex ROM.
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] Hmgrepper:
I used idone's app to get hotspot. I now have the toggle in panel to turn on and off.

However, there is no hotspot found in the settings panel, so there is no way to configure it.

Is there a way to get that turned on?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] Dougmeister:
Nyckid211, I tried downloading the app you mentioned, but the site redirected me to one of those stupid "your phone is infected with a virus" web pages. Is there a better place to get it, or get another app that will give me tethering?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] andrew2432:
To get your msl you can use the method mentioned in the OP.

OR If you're on a suscription, phones are paid off, bill is usually paid on timeish, call them and get mad. I said I pay for my phone I want my msl. The gave me flak and I said supervisor please until they gave it to me. I said thank you. Not sure if it works on prepaid or pay as you go.

Still checking? I'm on ok4 with pdanet. It makes USB and bluetooth work amazingly. Can't connect two phones though. Wanting true wifi hotspot, cant ever get internet with it. My apns already have dun in them, about to attempt the Hotspot reset? Will pdanet mess this up? I read about sql editing the global setting tether_dun_required to 0 instead of one but never got it to stick. Any ideas??

---------- Post added at 07:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:52 PM ----------

Use ops way. If you are on suscription ad paid off phones and pay your bill just say I need my msl until they give it to you. I just said I pay for my phone its mostly mine give my my msl, supervisor please, repeat until 6 digits given. Don't save it, memorize it. You will need it forever.

I have sprint ok4 build and can't get it opened. Already have dun in the apns, attempted foxifi and pdanet. Pdanet works some but not just normal hotspot. Read a fix somewhere saying to change tether dun required in global settings with an sql database editor. I tried to sql edit tether_dun_required to 0 instead of 1 and can not get it to stck with an app. I believe knowing sql language with adb could do something? Any ideas?
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] raylonr:
Has anybody gotten this to work with non-rooted S5 version 6.0.1?

If so How?

Work with newer phones?

I understand this thread is old and my response may be missed but, does anyone know if this method will work for newer phones? i.e. Galaxy S7?

I am interested in getting the Galaxy S8 or LG G6 but before I order I want to make sure I can still use this method to use the hotspot feature without subscription

Thanks for any input!
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] andrew2432:
Custom OS will have it unlocked by default! It will also get rid of that stock toichwiz. I think this is s5 specific but you could try! Make a backup and you should be OK!
[Sprint Galaxy S 5 General] jdaoud51:
Thanks for the reply! I ended up pulling the trigger on buying the S8, I am banking on this method to work out of the box without root. If not, root it will be, can't live without the (free) hotspot. Sprint locks it down and makes you pay a fee for it and when you do, the throttle it. :rolleyes:

Hello Everyone.

I am using a VPN and the Wifi Tether Router paid app from the market. I am curious as to how T-mobile still knows I am tethering, as I just got a "You used 80% of your High speed data" text from them (Have unlimited data plan)

Any ideas on how to completely hide? SSL? Proxy? Only seem to have issues with the Playstation and not the PC....

The PS4 data probably shows up different on the network than PC data. I've read that T-Mobile put some new things in place on their end to identify data usage being masked.
