Has anyone tried a workaround for obtaining wifi hotspot without root? I know there is a way on the sprint variant by obtaining the msl, is it possible this could work on at&t variant. I am thinking of switching to at&t for there new unlimited plan and really want a note 5 but without root I may go with the LGG4.(which is rootable)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] norbarb:
WiFi Hotspot is included in most of share AT&T plans. You don't need root for this. BTW unlimited plan will get throttled at the 22GB limit.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] onemeila:
The new unlimited plan is only offered to Directv or Uverse customers and it does not include hotspot. And yes they will throttle after 22GB but only during high congestion. Sprint has also implemented this(at 23gb). Verizon will soon offer an unlimited again and throttle(at 22gb) during high congestion as well. Legally on unlimited plans they can only throttle if the bandwidth consumption adversely affects there network, ie: during high congestion. A ceo from at&t said they would only throttle if it was absolutely necessary, so you are not going to just get bumped to 2g-3g speeds as soon as you hit that threshold.

So back to the original question.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] LuCaniTy:
Still within my 14 days period, thinking of switching to the nexus 6p to avoid this problem
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] droidrev71:
So you can use hotspot on the new unlimited plan with a 6p?

---------- Post added at 09:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:41 PM ----------

It's specifically said hotspot can't be used/added with this new unlimited plan. Can it be bypassed with root?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] eighty1:
Yes, It works natively on the 6p.

sent from Shadow Moses
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] LuCaniTy:
Can't wait to get the 6p tomorrow, mobile hotspot is a must have for me. Thanks for the confirmation
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5] LuCaniTy:
From what I've read in the 6p forum. The phone would have to be root and edit the build.edit to work.

Hi all!

I flashed my recovery to TWRP and ever since then, I always get stuck in bootloop no matter what custom ROM I try. Flashing back to stock rom via ODIN works.

It's been a while since I've tinkered with custom ROMs so I may be missing something. Any ideas on where to start?
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] woodman:
Hi,

Which phone ? i9305 or i9300 ?

Which version of TWRP do you use ?

You should try latest version of TWRP (2.8.7.3).

Or try Philz touch Recovery 6.48.4 or 6.59.
[Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help & ] Majin Aiman:
1.Repeat ODIN step to stock rom

2.Root the phone by kingroot (as it's doesn't required pc)

3.After rooting, Download Cwm rom manager

4.Install Cwm by selecting your phone model and etc

5.flash it directly from the apps

6.now you can flash any rom ( please backup your system for your safety)

[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheEndHK:
Enable developer options first in your phone, followed to enable OEM unlock and enable USB debugging.

Search on google there is a Sony official site to let you input your IMEI and get the unlock key. You'll need to use fastboot(search on google if you don't know what is it) to unlock via command prompt in Windows, a factory reset will perform after unlocked.

Kernel: http://xdaforums.com/z5-compact/orig-development/kernel-zombie-t3224735

Recovery: http://xdaforums.com/z5-compact/orig-development/twrp-z5-compact-t3235161 (you only need the recovery.img from it)

And then, you just need to "fastboot flash boot boot.img" and "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" in command prompt to flash custom kernel and custom recovery.

https://download.chainfire.eu/696/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip

At last, "fastboot boot recovery.img" to flash the flashablesu.zip in recovery and install any of busybox utility via Playstore. Upgrade to camera 2.0 via "What's new" if you will install xposed bcoz stock cam 1.0 will FC.

Pretty much that's all of it.

Bear in mind that if you unlock bootloader, your camera will worsen, you will lose image enhancements like x reality and your warranty will be void. Etc. Etc. So you might want to hold off on root. Just letting you know, that is
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Arturiuz!:
i don't totally agree because what i did,well,unlock device's bootloader & everything blah blah blah..but camera seems to be just fine.but of course,you'd definitely can see the difference..now since drm restore for our devices is already available however,it indeed restored the functions and the bravia engine & all(except the drm key itself),i noticed that my rooting status has changed from "unlock bootloader allowed: yes" to unlock bootloader allowed: no"!also,even if says so,my phone still has twrp installed,rooted & a custom kernel..all seems to be working as i so far observed..just that rooting status thing changed..kinda wierd,though! :confused:

Did you ever take the plunge with encryption? TWRP supposedly supports encryption, but want to make sure I have a way to a working phone if encryption doesn't work.

Don't remember if I can undo encryption via twrp, or at that point is it just prudent to flashtool it back to a clean image if not? My understanding is really just need to get a kernel on there that will boot, and provide the rest of the system with or without encryption.

Ready to pull the trigger on this to root and try with my encryption, but think I'll pull down a clean version of .200 firmware for the z5c first...

Stock kernel will get a bootloop if you rooted. The current build of Z5c kernel got dm-verity, when it detect your /system has changed like flashed flashablesu.zip to attempt to root probably it will not boot. You need a custom insecure kernel to root.

Help

Hello, tks by the step by step u did... Sorry by my poor english, i am braziliam and need little help here.

1 - My z5c already is unlocked;

2 - I download the zombie kernel like u said (ok, get the boot.img file);

3 - I try to download the recovery, but when open the 7zip on windows cannot unzip the recovery.img file;

4 - Try to download this one (TWRP for Z5C) and ok, i get the recovery.img file from this (this is the same recovery file ???).

So the questoin is:

I can flash this files above (boot and recovery) on my z5c - E5823 - 32.0.A.6.200 ????

And why not flash the boot.img from the recovery zip file ??? Whats the diference ???

Regards and tks again !!!
[Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Arturiuz!:
because it's only meant to be flashed in/by fastboot mode through command prompt or cmd.flashing it using recovery won't install those img's..not unless those were re/packed that could also be flashed through recovery..i've tried it but gave me error. & it's better that way installing it through command prompt/fastboot mode. ;)

Hello guys, I am running unofficial CM12.1 on my LENOVO A6000 plus. It's running really very good in terms of performance as well as battery backup, but I am facing some problems.. Even though I have allowed root access to 'apps and adb', some root apps are not working while some are. For ex. Greenify is working great as well as root explorer, in there, I can mount system rw temporarily and delete or add something in system folder. But I can't do the same thing with built in CyanogenMod file manager. Rom toolbox is also not working. I have previously used Xperia U, rooted, bootloader unlocked, running CM11 or stock rom and never had such a problem.. Even on A6000 plus, running stock rom gave me full root access. A lot of searching only reveals me that CM12.1 comes pre rooted. Then why root is not working for me? In terminal emulator if I type 'su', $ changes to #, that means I have root access. My thinking says, it might be because my root partition is not mounted as rw by default that's why I am facing these problem.. What you, more experienced guys think?
