Lg Leon LG-H324t.

Android 5.0.1, not rooted.

Settings> Storage> Misc.> System Data

2.51Gb of system data out of the 4gb available for internal memory.

Is that normal? this prevents me from installing further apps onto the phone.

as my internal is already used up.

moving apps to the memory card does not help much either, as some of the files still remain on the internal memory.

please help.

I would be happy if somebody could explain.

I have Radio ROM 1.41 installed on my Hermes with Schaps 3.57a WM6.

As I never managed to use 3G with it, and Bouygues Telecom was not able to help me, I then suspected an issue between this ROM version and 3G.

I therefore upgraded to 1.43. Results : unable to receive calls. Then, back to 1.41, all except 3G is OK.

Upgraded then to 1.47 : no calls

1.48 : no calls

1.50 : no calls !

Only 1.41 allows me to receive calls !!

Providing new version should, according to me, improve the ROM, no ?

Can someone explain me what is the logic behind all these versions ?

Don't misunderstand me, a huge thanks to all of those providing ROMs !!!!

Thanks

Guys I have a question...

On stock lollipop there is a DATABASE folder located at com.android.providers.settings ,inside the database folder a file called SETTINGS.DB .

I usually edit this file to avoid carrier detecting that I'm tethering and as always worked.

Now I updated to marshmallow on my N5 but the setting.db isn't there anymore.

Ideas?

Thanx

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrisduclo:
This worked for me on Sprint device

I used adb to change the settings.db

1. Typed "adb shell"

2. Then "settings put global tether_dun_required 0"

3. I also added in the build.prop file "net.tethering.noprovisioning=true"

reboot and enjoy

Hope this helped.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mariano3113:
Thanks I'll give that a try now.

Successful, Hotspot working here now.

I already had the build.prop entry (force of habitat) :

net.tethering.noprovisioning=true

For the setting global entry:

I used Terminal Emulator

su (for super user)

Then typed "settings put global tether_dun_required 0"

After making entry I rebooted device and tested Hotspot.

Hotspot working.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mariano3113:
Step 1) Use a Nexus 5 or 6 on Marshmallow with Root* (There are plenty of threads and ROMs detailing Root access on those Nexus devices with Busybox and Super Su/SuperUser working)

Step 2) Download a File Explorer that offers root privilege like ES File Explorer (Root Explorer toggled On and granted SU access)

Step 3) Navigate in file explorer to System ->Build.prop

Step 4) Open build.prop (Es File Explorer has ES Note Editor included)

Step 5) choose to edit, so that you can add the line entry: net.tethering.noprovisioning=true

Step 6) Save build.prop and exit

Step 7) Download Terminal Emulator or some other Terminal App

Step 8) Open Terminal app and grant SU either by prompt or by typing "su" as a command *App and SU confirmation process may vary*

Step 9) After SU access is acquired in Terminal Emulator/app type: settings put global tethering_dun_required 0

Step 10)Exit Terminal app

Step 11) Reboot device

Step 12) Test Native Hotspot/tether

If not working and on Sprint/CDMA carrier double check/repeat steps 1-12

(CDMA carriers don't allow APN edit on Nexus 5...APN list does not show)

If using GSM carrier (At&t, T-Mobile), if hotspot is still not working;

-Go to settings->Wireless & Networks choose More

-Select Cellurlar Networks

-Select Access Point Names (APN)

-Go to APN Type and add: ,dun

(Comma dun with no spaces*)

Save & Exit

Reboot device

Test Hotspot/tethering, if not working double check all entry changes...

So you're saying we could get tether on Nexus Marshmallow *without* root?

Thanks!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jakejm79:
On my N5 on MetroPCS, I was able to enable tethering by just running the following:

adb shell
settings put global tether_dun_required 0

I ran it has su originally, but I can run it without and don't get any errors. I didn't change the build.prop I did have to change the APN type to IP4 (it would work at first on IP6 but when I switched towers or something it would stop). So in theory in my case root shouldn't be needed, my device is now unrooted again and all is working fine.

Tethering now works, I think this is a little different than some of the other carriers since MetroPCS allows tethering, but just not with a BYOD from what I have heard.

I went and downloaded different editors, apparently they are in there, for what ever reason SQL Editor doesn't see them. There was one app that saw them but couldn't edit them. If you navigate to the location with ES File Explorer you see they are indeed where they have always been. I copied and pasted it in the root the internal sd and if you navigate to it using SQL Editor it now sees it. I then edited and tried pushing it back in the system location and it broke data and call capabilities. I made sure the permissions were correct.

---------- Post added at 09:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:10 PM ----------

I installed SkyDragon MMB29V hopfully I can get it working with this ROM. Can I flash an older ROM over Marshmallow? A rom that has tethering already working??
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mariano3113:
Not sure. When I cannot get tethering working I usually flash(roll back) to an older build where I know Tethering was working and then dirty-flash.

(Tethering will still be blocked , but I can perform steps listed here with build prop edit and settings.global commit change to get Tethering enabled)

Off-topic, but Sprint Tethering related

I loved the idea of an Actual Nexus Device on Sprint and available through the carrier, being on my very affordable SERO plan.

(Sprint Galaxy Nexus and priors were like half-baked Nexus devices with delayed updates and poor support)

Recently base Android has come so far that putting GEL Launcher to replace Touchwiz on Samsung Galaxy series is enough for most of the 'Vanilla Android' experience I want.

With the addition that new Galaxy devices like the S6 or newer only need an MSL code and dun entry to have tethering enabled for free.

Since Google decided to not sell through Carriers anymore: the Snapdragon 820 device I get to replace this Nexus 5 might be a new Samsung

Ideally, it would be amazing for a Nexus device in 2016 to be offered through Sprint with a Snapdragon 820. (Would like to use my upgrade...lol)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mariano3113:
As a follow up:

Nexus 5 on Sprint I am using XtraFactory RoM MMB29V with Tethering in-tact after build prop edit & tether_dun_required entry via terminal emulator.

Nexus 6 on Sprint using Stock Rooted MMB29V also has functional Hotspot after build prop edit & settings put global entry via terminal emulator.

XtraFactory is a stock based RoM. I am using RoMs that are odexed and stock based and am able to get the Hotspot working successfully, after build prop edit and terminal emulator entry. (Tested by Flashing to Factory Image and then installing TWRP along with custom aforementioned respective RoM)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zappacat:
I want to thank you for this post. Had worked through this problem with no resolution several times with no success. For some reason I was under the impression the correct command line syntax was :

"settings put global tethering_dun_required 0"

After seeing your post I omitted the ing from tethering and used your command :

"settings put global tether_dun_required 0"

This worked for me and provided a HUGE relief when I finally got this up and running. Thank you (and everyone else here) for contributing to this forum. I really appreciate it.

PS my situation was : Nexus 5 Marshmallow 6.0.1 Sprint . Hotspot would activate and could be discovered but no connection to the internet. I did edit the buildprop file as instructed in this thread prior to issuing this "settings put global tether_dun_required 0" command.

Not working on TMO anymore

I have a Nexus 5 6.0.1 ROOTED - I performed the above modifications to the build.prop and global settings. I have been using a spare line on an unlimited plan as a home hotspot for at least a year straight. On average, I use about 20gb per month. I uploaded my entire photo library from my local drive to amazon cloud via hotspot 358GB without a hiccup, this was about 4 months ago... I just bought a new Asus Zenbook SSD laptop and as soon as I connected it my data was throttled. My other laptop that has been connected to my hotspot network is throttled too. I called TMO and asked about my slow speeds. The rep said, " I see you are on the unlimited data plan so you should never be throttled, but you used 9gb of the 5gb hotspot allotted. So only your hotspotting has been throttled." I thanked her for the information.

So apparently, TMO has figured out a way to identify if you are tethering even with all the mods mentioned above.

Is anyone else experiencing this issue?

if you open SQLite Editor and go to /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases and then its the telephony.db .

Generally the Kali Linux Installation is easy. The most common error a user gets in the network section, this is because in laptops and desktops there are different WiFi adapter and use a direct LAN wire.

The second problem is, users can't make the right partitions and gets errors. So my suggestion is to always use a seperate Hard drive for Kali Linux installation and do not go manual. Select the "Guided- use entire disk" option and then select the "all files in one partition" option, it will automatically create the right ext and swap the partition for you.

If you want to install a new HDD or SSD on your PC or Laptop and don't know how to install the hard drive, you can check this article on how to install Kali Linux without loosing Windows 10 and old data. I found this useful because it has multiple options.
