The reboot method still works after the update...

Reboot phone,

As soon as is possible navigate to and turn hotspot,

it usually works on 1st try,

if you get 'no data connection', quickly turn off and turn on hotspot again.

if you get 'not subscribed to this service', start at reboot again.

This is not my find,

it is from other GS7 hotspot thread.

I have yet to find a way around it. There is a new update out. I have not installed it yet, still waiting to see the reports on what it changes.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussio] The Amorphist:
For now, I can confirm that turning your phone off and then on, and activating hot spot immediately let's you turn it on.

The latest update improved Voice over WiFi, which I need to be better for work, so I'm sadly going to be the guinea pig for this update. I'll report back soon on whether or not it locks out the previously mentioned working option.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussio] The Amorphist:

Reboot your phone. As soon as you can unlock it open the hot spot settings and turn it on. Then connect something to it right away.

This is correct! Follow this YouTube video and it'll work for you to. Just verified on my unlocked GS7.

It's not perfect or consistent for me, I had to reboot it a couple of times to get it to work more than a few seconds but the second time it stayed on for several minutes! I went to test the internet and it was working as you would expect. This is awesome!

You can get free hotspot without root easily without your msl. Shortcut master lite will let you edit APN settings. Just check out some of my post if you wanna find out how. And it's the native hotspot

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussio] Cooljb:
You have to be on the 930U firmware referenced in this thread to use Shortcut Master Lite to edit the APN settings:

xdaforums.com/sprint-galaxy-s7/help/bloat-free-firmware-930u-tried-t3428974

I am running the 930U firmware and it's working flawlessly. I have native hotspot thanks to Shortcut Master Lite, and no sprint bloatware. There was an update to the 930U firmware that showed up today with August 1 security patch level. So it looks like the 930U firmware is going to be supported going forward. The 930U firmware is pure samsung android, no sprint crap at all. There is some samsung crap, but a lot of it can be uninstalled or disabled. I feel like I have a new phone after flashing the 930U firmware. I'll never go back to sprint firmware unless something goes haywire with the 930U firmware.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussio] stljim2005:
do you have a sm-g930p -sprint varient? and what is the baseband version you running (i.e. PE1, PF2, PG1) ?? because I am fully rooted with PE1 and the apn settings are still greyed out but I can access them via ##data# and with my MSL but most the the apn settings are still greyed out (mainly the ones to change for the hotspot mod). any further info on what your running with would help. Thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussio] Cooljb:
Yes I have the sprint model (sm-g930p), but I'm running the "U" firmware, which is version PG9 now. If you're rooted on the sprint firmware, get SQLite Editor (or something similar) and edit the telephony database.

These instructions are just for SQLite Editor:

Open the app, select the "Files" tab on the top, navigate to /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/ - in this directory there will be a file named telephony.db, select it, then select "carriers". Down near the bottom of the list of records you will see a row named "APN2 LTE internet". Select that row and hit the edit button (little pencil icon at the top right), then scroll down to the the field named "type". It will probably have the value "default,mms" already in it. Simply add ",dun" following the mms portion, then hit save. When you save it, the value of "type" should be default,mms,dun. You should be able to use the built-in hotspot after making this edit. Just for good measure, you may want to restart the phone after making this edit.

Good luck.

Has any non-rooted user actually gotten the reboot method working lately? I'm on stock PF2 and follow the instructions for quick rebooting. The hotspot initializes and devices can connect to it, but they have no internet access, and then within 20 seconds or so the S7 reports "unable to establish a data connection" and the hotspot turns off.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussio] Zer0C0oL:

I have a new S7 Edge. My conversation with Sprint Chat was very similiar. They did ask me what data issues I was having. I told them that I live in a "foresty" area and most of the time I am unable to connect to the internet (which is true). They told me that they do not have a msl code, but they have a "device" code. So far, the "device" code has allowed me to do everything a msl code does. Thank you for this!

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussio] Paul_Hammons:
Pixelsblur,

I have the same result. Just turned on hotspot and started using it. Works fine, no changes needed and no hotspot on my plan. I have the SERO Unlimited plan for $60, maybe that is why?

I've turned it off and on a few times, and let it stay on for quite a while with devices associated, still working fine.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussio] KaptainRandom:
If you are connected to a wifi before/when you turn on hotspot,

it will just pass-through the wifi like a router.

To test your hotspot,

be sure to turn off wifi first,

So you're phone is only connected to data via lte.

This is also happening to me.

Any updates?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussio] Cooljb:
Without rooting, the best alternative is to flash the "U" firmware and you can edit the APNs to enable hotspot natively without having to root. Here is the post on how to use Shortcut Master (Lite) to make the APN edit on the "U" firmware:

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=68034156&postcount=27

This works on the latest U firmware (PL2). I strongly encourage you to try the U firmware. I loaded it on my phone after several unsuccessful attempts to root. It runs like a charm. And it gets regular official updates. Hotspot was the only reason I was trying to root anyway, and with the U firmware you don't need to fool with rooting.

If you're nervous about doing it, don't be. Use Smart Switch to back up your phone, flash the latest U firmware (Here), do a factory reset, then restore using the back up you created with Smart Switch. Super easy and painless. And as a bonus, no Sprint bloatware! And you can always go back to sprint firmware if you want, just follow these same steps using the sprint firmware (Here) instead of the U firmware.

Same here. This just started working without any trouble or boot/reboot/SQL/MSL fiddling. I think sprint simply changed what is included in their plans. I'm on SERO $50.

EDIT: anythingbutmine (below, post #46) is right. I had the "Wi-Fi sharing" turned on. So, hotspot is not magically working.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 Guides, News, & Discussio] anythingbutmine:
Are you sure you all don't just have "Wi-Fi Sharing" enabled in Hotspot?

I thought I was getting free hotspot tethering at first too (& I'm also on SERO), but then I noticed "Wi-Fi sharing" was turned on by default in Hotspot; it shares your WiFi, not your cellular data.

Settings > Hotspot and Tethering > Hotspot > hit the 3 dot menu, tap "Wi-Fi sharing", and turn it off. Now try using Hotspot again.

[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iElvis:
You zipped it back up incorrectly. The better approach is to use an app that allows you to edit the file inside the zip.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sttw1fa:
OK. Is there a recommendation of an app to do this? MAC based (preferably, as that's 99% of my use), but I do have an older Windows 7 laptop.

A couple of Google searches are really all over the place on the topic of editing files inside a zip file. Many say it can't reliably be done, some say it still changes the ZIP filesize/other info (which would put me back to this issue).

Thanks!
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iElvis:
I use B1 Free Archiver and I've used it to edit android-info.txt files inside firmware zips in the past. The OSX archive program does not work for flashable zips as it adds in extraneous files and does not archive it correctly for this purpose.

I suppose it's possible to mess up editing files inside a zip if you use the wrong program, and it would indeed break the signature for a signed firmware file. That may be what people are referring to.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sttw1fa:
Thanks for the info on B1 Free Archiver....installed on my MAC, and changed the android-info.txt file pretty effortlessly inside the zip file.

Then went through the install/upgrade of MM, new recovery, and then finally LeeDroid r85.

Unfortunately....most of the app back up files seem to be useless (or gone), as the path to the external SD card got renamed during the entire process (which I don't understand, as I thought the SD card wouldn't be touched). Several of the apps don't allow changing the SD Card backup path, and several that did...the backups (folders) aren't there anymore. I did verify the various app backups using ES File Explorer Pro before starting (and after). Basically was a mess for my most used apps, but all other data (music/images/videos) went untouched as far as I can tell.

So...went back to a TWRP Nandroid backup from earlier today. Will redo all the important app backups elsewhere.....and try again.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iElvis:
MM changed paths and permissions to the sdcard, and I had similar issues with some apps when I upgraded. But you're on MM firmware now, so the rest is gravy.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sneakyghost:
I see you got your main issue resolved. No need to answer your PM then I reckon.

I explicitly mention in my posts on page one that you need to use the right archiving program or at least know how to set up your preferred archiver with the required parameters so the zip would flash. Although I do not have any clue about Mac's... :D

Regarding the SDCard name: you better find a decent solution for your apps because each Marshmallow ROM reflash will create a new unique name for the SDcard. It will happen all over again next time you clean flash. I personally use Titanium Backup to back up a few important apps from which I know that they will have no issues with restore, and made it a principle I follow obsessively, to clean flash and clean setup - meaning I go through every single of my 200 something apps and set it up again manually except for those with important databases with no cloud backup - like my drive log book for instance.
[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sttw1fa:
Yeah....MACs sometimes complicate things. I'd never needed to edit a file in a zip file, hence the start of the issue, which was 'learning something new'.

And...I'll re-install Titanium Backup for going forward with MM. I had basically abandoned it. It caused a big pain one time when using on my M8 back when upgrading back in the 4.x versions. I then switched to just managing phone and app backups via the SD card manually (it never got touched for me between 4.x and 5.x, so it worked OK), and then some apps had backup online options (dropbox, etc.). Always worked well til hitting MM. I'm only in the 140 app range....and only about 10-12 that really need heavy duty backup options like TB.

Up and running with MM and LD r85 since this morning.

Thanks all!
