I thought for sure that this was going to be a joke to see how long I would sit there popping my sim and launching apps and such, but WOW.

It actually worked on my third attempt ( VZ S8+)

Thanks again for posting this!:good:

latest update G950USQS2BQL1 blocked every method I can find for hotspot on s8!!! going to have to buy a unlocked phone before I try flashing this one and end up with a $800 brick. ANYONE Help?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] rlsyoung:
Was it just this update or did Bootloader 2 kill the wifi hotspot trick for verizon? Can I use the last Bootloader 1 OTA and still use VZW sim card hotspot trick?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] EonVerix:
Patched or fixed though I'm trying.

So basically I've been using this method for almost the moment I got the s8+. And just last night my phone force updated at some point and when I woke up I had an onscreen prompt telling me that it had been updated and now I can't use this method to turn on my hotspot and I'm not rooted so this was really my only go to for playing multiplayer games on ps4. So now I've been screwing around in PdP trying to figure out which apps actually are associated with the hotspot or the trick with the WiFi but so far no luck. But anyhow it's been fixed to my knowledge unless I'm missing something. Also if anyone knows how to downgrade from this latest update a link would be helpful.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] partcyborg:
Why would you brick from downgrading to a previous build?

First of all, literally NOTHING you can flash in regular (not Comsy) odin can brick you. If you try to flash something incompatible with your phone, it will fail to even load. Even an earlier bootloader revision would fall before flashing in Comsy Odin as well as regular.

Second, if it's only bql1 that patches this, there is literally nothing stopping you from flashing an earlier v2 firmware (ends with U2XXXX, like U2AQK3) and staying on it from now on. ****, is the fix in the boot.img or in CP, or is in /system? Are you aware that there is no versioning with /system? That means you can extract the system.img.ext4 into its own tar and flash it in comsy odin and it will just work

And before you or someone else says "but bootloader patches! Bricks!!!11" no one of that wound up being much of anything, and a whole lot of nothing for the s8
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ldog3211:
Crap, sorry that happened! I know how aggravating it can be to use something for the longest time and then have it just suddenly taken away without warning. Lots of people notified me about the update blocking this method, and I found that blocking "System update" in PDP will keep your phone from forcing itself to update. Good fix in the short term for those who haven't already updated, but now the Galaxy S9 and onward will continue to have this patch. Guess we'll have to try and find other methods or other carriers...
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] EonVerix:
If i downgraded to stock firware would it fix the issue?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] pacebria:
I flashed unlocked firmware to all our s8's and dont deal with this crap anymore. just flip the switch and go
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ldog3211:
I assume it would. As long as you downgrade to a previous version before this update, you should be good to go.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ldog3211:
That's a good solution too haha. I'm just scared to do it because I don't know that much about how to use Odin and flashing firmware, and the last time I tried I almost didn't have a phone anymore. But I've still been considering flashing it anyway. Was I hard to do?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] EonVerix:
Wait so if I just flash an unlocked firmware I could use the native hotspot? Or would I still be screwed because I've been updated to the newest bootloader i can downgrade any lower than BQK5 unless there is a magical bootloading downgrade lol
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] EonVerix:
Hey so I've been working on a way to get this to work for those of who got ambushed by the recent update. And so far I can get the native toggle to work but the issue I'm having is a DNS Error which I discovered is a result of the dun thing. But using adb I figure out how to turn off the dun requirement only thing is when you reboot it resets the requirement you can use xposed to soft reboot and the requirement stays deactivate but as soon as you turn on the mobile hotspot the requirement is reactivated so now I'm trying to find a way to get rid of the dun requirement system files or maybe find a way to lock it out after deactivation. If anyone has any information let me know.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Onesourcedallas:
Only tested on rooted Samsung devices. Get a package disabler app from the app store and disable all apps that pull up under your 'tether' search, should only be 2-3 apps. Edit your build.prop file on your rooted Samsung devices and enter this as the last line in the file - 'net.tethering.noprovisioning=true', without the quotes of course. Once entered your carrier will not be able to monitor your tethering data any longer and all future tethered data will be routed through your carrier's regular data plan. Good Luck!

I've been using FoxFi for years and has never failed me.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] EonVerix:
Foxfi doesn't work for anything other than is tether on galaxy s8. At least for me.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ryanpm40:
Isn't a wireless tether synonymous with a mobile hotspot??
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] EonVerix:
Yes it is. But there is mobile hotspot and usb tethering on foxfi. Where as one requires a cable and the other does not. And the mobile hotspot part of foxfi doesn't work on the s8 so I can't just throw my connection out to anything i want.. it has to be my computer with the pda.net application installed on it.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] ryanpm40:
Oh dang, what a shame! I could've sworn FoxFi used to work for me, but just double-checked myself and it doesn't. Maybe I was thinking of my LG G5.

Now I can't remember if it did work on my phone with Nougat. If not, it's super weird that two phones running Android 7.0 on the same network wouldn't both be able to use FoxFi because I'm 100% positive that LG phone worked. I'm on Verizon, though.

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] IDan1109:
Hi everyone! i was curious to read this beacuse in italy with Vodafone we need to pay for using tethering and i've always made a little change on the apn and it always worked fine! Idk if maybe could work for you also but i think you can try it. So first i have 2 Apn one for tethering and one for mobile data connection. I removed the apn of tethering related then i go into mobile data Apn in my case vodafone.mobile.it then i modify the apn type adding "dun" string. So it became something like "default,supl,xcap,dun". After doing this nothing is needed and tethering is working fine without paying a cent
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] EonVerix:
Foxfi has the new "wifi direct hotspot" which makes a tetherless hotspot to your computer possible but I have been able to connect to anything without pdanet on it.

Its fantastic because I don't have to pay that crappy extra $10 a month my carrier wants me to pay. Now unless you mean native hotspot on a carrier firmware then I'm not sure.

You can only have one vpn running at once unless you are rooted

Ad blockers that don't use root use a vpn connection

If you see my previous post above AdGuard is a non root adblocker however if you are rooted you can use a http proxy so you can also use your vpn with it so you can run both at same time

After some time ago the update on 7.1.1 (NPN26.107) pulled out of the net and brought via sideload to my MZP (reteu), I am apparently excluded from OTA. So I have today the 4 SOAK files from here sucked and successively after instruction with Wipe Cache by sideload to the MZP want to bring. With the first and the second went without problems, however with the third and fourth broke the action, with a message that the build would not fit.

My MZP runs now easily with build NPN26.118-10 and security patch from the 01. Jun 2017, but an OTA is unfortunately not offered in Germany in the O2 network.

Maybe someone of you has a suitable tip for me?

Problem solved by my self:

As I've discovered here "https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=73393890&postcount=15" it does not seem rich after every sideload just wipe cache, that was my problem. After I additionally booted in each to the system, I could also SOAK3RD and SOAK4TH sideload, and am now on the current build NPN26.118-22 and get hopefully then when available also again OTAs.
