for the korean n950n, bootloader from july is still version 3. will it matter? because your base is u4 right...

thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] angelo27093:
all models should work fine as long as it is a Exynos :)

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] bober10113:
hi, i got an issue:

in aroma, during magisk install stage screen goes black and phone is completely unresponsive.

if i manually force to reboot, device is in bootloop sort of. id does kind of boot but restarts after screen saying upgrading android.

this was when choosing normal wipe

flashed again and same issues as described above.

as stated earlier, this is on an n950n bootloader v3

rom checksum matches the one on AFH
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] angelo27093:
mmm thats weird do you have telegram ? so you can send my some stuff that i need to check whats going wrong when magisk installs. because someone with the same model is running 4.0 fine without any problems
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] NZCloud:
I have the same problem...can not install. Phone just locks up.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] irsemoticon:
me too, when press install phone just locks up and nothing can do
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] gsser:
while installing in aroma, i selected backup and normal wipe, screen went black... n950fd, blackscreen comes as magisk starts installing
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] dr.ketan:
If rom have option to skip root then skip it and flash magisk zip separately after flashing rom will fix issue. It's a known glitch.

If no such option in rom then you can delete magisk zip from Rome zip, flash this modified zip and then magisk.zip
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] gsser:
i already tried it. when it finishes copying data and system, it just wents black and reboots, but sadly it says 287 apps are optimizing, when it finishes it just do the same thing again so it puts you on bootloop
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, &] dr.ketan:
That's another issue and dev can only comment, I said is known issue

Make sure Chrome is not debloated, else it can cause such issue

For USB tether clients, ClockWorkMod seems to be programmed in a lower-level fashion and produce significantly less heat than running Easytether. I will be monitoring and update.
[T-Mobile LG V10 General] DaMagicTicket:
I recently been looking into this as well. I've currently been using the new pdanet with with wifi direct but it seem to be hit or miss when getting a internet connection when using the proxy method. I have a few devices where i cant install the interface so im looking for reliable method

Few scenarios im looking at. The first one you cover quite a bit, was wondering if your using IPV4 or IPV6 with your different apn settings? 2nd scenario is being able to tether when connected to wifi like from a hotel and being able to pass that to other devices and the 3rd is being able to pass along a vpn connection if connected to free wifi places
[T-Mobile LG V10 General] majikfox:
Sorry for the necropost, I just wanted to point out that currently the only method you can use to hide tethering from T-mo is PDANet with it's "Hide Tether Usage" feature.

All other methods are detected and if you have tethering, will count against your tethering allotment.
[T-Mobile LG V10 General] misquia:
Thanks for the heads up. Just wanted to make sure since I wanted to try the TTL method, but that is also blocked by T-Mobile correct?
[T-Mobile LG V10 General] Adam_nox:
TTL 65 didn't work on my computers, but 85 and 99 did. So don't be afraid to try different things.

However, the phone should be able to modify the TTL before it forwards the packet. How is there not an app that does this, or is there a setting or hack we can do to make it change the TTL as it passes through the phone?

edit: have searched more and learned some apps do, but they don't work on my phone. Not sure why.

Bypass With Termux

I've done this for ever and it's not going to be restricted to who you have but it will 100 percent get around any data throttling.

Download Termux app and install openssh-server on it. Go ahead and hotspot your phone, then run ifconfig inside Termux to get your current tethering local IP. It will be the only 192. spit out when you run ifconfig. Save this. Run sshd -dD inside Termux which starts an openssh server waiting to be connected to in debug mode to audit traffic. Now pop onto a PC or router you can SSH into, whatever and connect it to your hotspot from your phone. Now SSH tunnel all the traffic from the device back through the openssh server your running on the Termux app. Now that you are on the same local network you can SSH tunnel into that IP address you saved earlier. As long as you make sure all your traffic passes through the tunnel it 100 percent shows that all your internet is being used by Termux app not your hotspot app so you need no other spoofing of hops or anything because to your phone and carrier you are just using a bunch of data in termux, you do it right you will never be throttled I've used 150GB data multiple times.

Step by step > https://github.com/RiFi2k/unlimited-tethering
[T-Mobile LG V10 General] VICosPhi:
This is amazing. How do I use my Windows PC to connect to the openSSH server to create the traffic tunnel? Also, how do I force my Windows 10 traffic through the tunnel?

I am guessing with Putty and then setup SSH proxy in a browser to force traffic? Won't that only allow browser based traffic through the tunnel and not all traffic from the Windows computer?
[T-Mobile LG V10 General] RiFi2k:
So I am an everyday linux user and for me personally I use sshuttle to route everything back through the tunnel because it already handles the TCP over TCP problem because the guy that wrote it is a boss. This here explains that.

If I was on windows I would go with their vagrant solution because then you get the benefit of sshuttle and all your responsible for is making sure all traffic goes through the VM. Also you could use something like proxycap and putty works as well although I guess it's slow people have said.

Browser traffic can be handled with SOCKS proxies.

I feel like it's a pretty great solution overall and can benefit some people so I started a repo and I'll fully document how it works, I'm just too tired tonight so keep an eye out https://github.com/RiFi2k/unlimited-tethering and I'll step by step linux and windows for everyone as much as possible, plus if anyone else has scripts and whatnot feel free to contribute.
[T-Mobile LG V10 General] VICosPhi:
Thanks a lot, will read up on this. Adding your github to my bookmarks as well. :good:
[T-Mobile LG V10 General] collin2010:
Had any user tried this already and confirm that it works with metropcs?

Pdanet+ documentation details that only usb tether+hide tether usage works with metropcs. It took me a while to go around all of it, but I haven't tested due to I want to switch carriers to metropcs.
[T-Mobile LG V10 General] myself379:
Hey bro!! Thank you !!

This is great idea, I would try it on my country to see if this works
[T-Mobile LG V10 General] RiFi2k:
For sure! See the nice thing about this method is that your phone doesn't register any of the data used as coming from the tethering app, it 100% all gets attributed to the Termux app because of the SSH tunnel. So basically there is no way for anyone at your carrier to know, or prove that you actually were tethering at all. If you open up the apps section and check out the part where it shows you how much data each app used you will see what I mean. So basically it really doesn't matter what country / carrier / phone you have, as long as you have access to be able to tether and you have a computer you can use for the SSH tunnel it's impossible for them to throttle you because they can't prove you actually used the data tethering. When you read the fine print about them throttling it basically says the same thing, if they can't definitively prove the data came from tethering it doesn't go on your tethering cap.
[T-Mobile LG V10 General] davy4620:
Hello RiFi2k,

OK, thanks for the information. I'm trying to translate this into a windows environment(Windows 10 phone and PC).

Here is what I have so far, but a few of your points are unclear. A little clarity would be fantastic.

Translation for Windows 10 phone

Since, I'm on a windows phone there is no Termux app. I guess Termux is used to install the SSH server and gain access to a command prompt, correct?

1. Ok since openssh server is built into the windows phone OS and I can access the command prompt via putty, I should be fine, right.

2. Generate key pair and stored public key on phone. Working fine.

3. Hotspot connection to phone.

4. Run ipconfig(windows) on phone or local machine. On local machine, gateway address is the needed ip, same as hotspot address on phone.

5. SSH Server is started on phone once the phone is placed in development mode.

Can't put server in debug mode on phone, but I'm pretty certain that it's hard coded to listen on port 22.

6. Your instructions on github.com have duplicated the step number 5, which should be 6 and I am having a little trouble sorting through it.

7. I guess the only way to tunnel to the phone is to run a putty session from the Windows machine configured per your instructions.

Are these commands executed on the device or phone?:

ssh -D 8123 -fqgN system@192.168.xxx.1 -p 22 (ssh client)

sshuttle -r system@192.168.xxx.1:22 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0 (sock proxy)

Either way, I will need to use putty for the SSH Client portion. What are the switches in your example "-fqgN"? Are the switches concatenated?

-f Specifies a per-user configuration file.

-q Quiet mode

-g Allows remote hosts to connect to local forwarded ports.

-N ???

And finally, depending on where the above commands are run, I will need to find a sock proxy solution, if I want all traffic going through the tunnel.

Again, thanks for all your hard work.
[T-Mobile LG V10 General] RiFi2k:
Ok, so the N is `-N Do not execute a remote command. This is useful for just forwarding ports (protocol version 2 only).` reference https://linux.die.net/man/1/ssh

It's completely fine if you don't have debug mode on when you start the sshd server on your phone, you actually don't technically need any flags. One is debug and one is detached so it runs in the background, which you are generally going to want.

Both those commands are run on your computer, but you only use one or the other. Follow my link to sshuttle they have information for using it on Windows, it will transparently route all your traffic through the tunnel for you already so it's way better than anything else.

So just to recap, you start the sshd (ssh server) on your phone and it will spit out a port. Then you go to your PC and ssh or sshuttle (ssh client) connect to your phone.

I'm around if you need more help!

Also once you get it working on Windows with your phone if you don't mind letting me know what version of Windows and what model your phone is, and where the directions hung you up, because I'll mention it all to help the next person.
[T-Mobile LG V10 General] davy4620:
Thanks for the quick reply. I'm going to have to dig a little deeper. It looks as if Microsoft is doing some kind of filtering on the WiFi interface and blocking this approach. Again, thanks for the great start.
[T-Mobile LG V10 General] collin2010:
Thanks for the detailed explanation. I will give it a try. It will take me some time due to new to this.
[T-Mobile LG V10 General] horsecharles:
I've used paid version pdanet w\ hide tether option@ Metro for years, no issues. USB or WiFi Direct. Some months I've gotten to 80gb (on a plan that only permits 10gb). It has worked on Samsung, LG, ZTE & Alcatel phones for over a decade.

The only issue is that it times out occasionally in haphazard fashion- can go two days without dropping, or can drop coupla times in a day-even with very light usage that month.

I just ported out to Visible by Verizon ('cause it's only $25 for everything unlimited) and pdanet WiFi Direct does NOT work there (even though unlimited hotspot is included in phone plan, although with 1 device only limit).

I still have Metro account open with a $10 unlimited tablet plan (10gb hotspot allowance, full HD costs $30- the cheaper plan in practice streams @ 720p) and pdanet works there BUT disconnects constantly. Since the battery life is insanely good, I suspect Android Smart Manager (or Alcatel firmware's version) is causing this. I've whitelisted pdanet & FoxFi to no avail, i need help figuring out which system files to whitelist.

I recommend this tablet plan to everyone-($10 is so low i may add a second one) I added TextNow (for some reason Google Voice does not open when tablet sleeping) and it works just like a phone.

I'm trying to convert tablet to phone natively- just added all the relevant telephony apps from an Android 9 Alcatel phone (if from previous Android phones they simply don't install), but i need help figuring out which system settings to edit.

FYI AT&T Connected Car just reopened- $20+taxes. Unlimited everything- it's tailored to RV's & families traveling, so no limits or restrictions of any kind. Can insert that Sim into other hotspot devices. I take it with me everywhere I go- work, hotel, cabin, etc.

Good Luck.
[T-Mobile LG V10 General] collin2010:
Thanks for the info. I have a pixel 4 w metro and haven't tried yet pdanet. I will definitely test it. I do appreciate working methods, but less complicated is worth the try.
[T-Mobile LG V10 General] gretschpr:
I guess I'm number 4 to request? ? Which one is the one you used? ?
[T-Mobile LG V10 General] kenpet22:
Hello All. Following is what I am trying to accomplish. Please let me know what is the best option to do that.

I have Pixel 3aXL running Android 10. I don't have any Hotspot plan/allocation. I run windscribe VPN on my android devices and windscribe extension in all my browsers (except IE) on my desktop. I want to use hotspot (of-course w/o detection) on this device so that I can get internet on a spare device in the car for Waze, etc. Occasionally, I use hotspot for my desktop if a website is blocking my VPN access. This way I don't expose my home IP info.

I want to be able to use my Pixel while it is running hotspot. That is, this hotspot should be running in the background. I want to be able to use my VPN as well while it is running hotspot. Also, if i want to use this hotspot for my desktop, I should be able to run my VPN browser extension. For example, if I use Netshare, I can't really set my proxy for the browser since the VPN extension is using that. Hence, in such a case, I may not be able to use this hotspot.

Any suggestions? Thank you.

A pretty easy method if you are rooted which allows you to use the standard tethering is to use open source VPN Hotspot + a TTL editor (or in rooted termux you could set TTL there). I do this with TMobile all the time.

[T-Mobile LG V10 General] Jed0819:
So I just want to throw my hat into the ring here with the free and most simple method that I have found so far, granted I have only gotten it to work for USB tethering. All I had to use was 3C All in One Toolbox, and a VPN, I went with 1.1.1.1 because it's free and from a trusted company. All I had to do was go to the network manager section in 3C-->VPN Tether-->Turn on 1.1.1.1-->Turn on USB Tethering-->Turn on forwarding-->and then turn tethering off then back on again. I'm not claiming this hasn't already been done through other apps and services, but this is what I have found to work for me. I have Cricket unlimited core so I was limited to 128kb/s on hotspot which is basically impossible to use.
[T-Mobile LG V10 General] Master-Blaster:
Calling all Vincent Van Bro's,

anyone know what may have happened here? I'm on Straight Talk with an ATT sim. I've been using the Android "tether_dun_required - 0" and "tether_entitlement_check_state - 0" hack for years and then when that no longer worked I added the Windows (10) TTL hack for the past couple years with total success. I got a new Acer Aspire 5 laptop a week ago and did the TTL hack on it immediately but after 5 days and using up my 20 GB hotspot Straight Talk somehow detected and cut off my huevos. I've been racking up 60 to over 150 GB a month on my hotspot for the past couple years with the Windows TTL hack and no issue but as soon as I get this new Acer Aspire 5 I get my pp wacked.

Anyone have any ideas of what may have happened?

I've been off planet the past few years so I didn't know about the "NetShare-no-root-tethering" App (WiFi-Direct) which is a totally Bro-llissimo App, and it works perfect for surfing, downloading and steaming. Don't know how long this will last without detection but if it gets me to my next auto-refill and hotspot reset I'll be happy. I'll probably now use my Hotspot for regular surfing and some minor DL but use the NetShare App for the more serious stuff.

Update: I just realized I was using a Verizon sim the past couple years with Straight Talk and last week switched over to an ATT sim because their signal is stronger and more consistent where I live. So I'm wondering if the Windows TTL hack doesn't or no longer works with ATT. Maybe that's it?
[T-Mobile LG V10 General] MindTrix:
After reading the whole thread its confusing that people go off into another scenario and make it sound like you need to run Linux and have a VPN you route the phone through... but what your saying is different....

To make things more fun is to make a video doing all the steps on the phone you need to make to get your tunnel up and running.

I am writing each step down in order but get very different results on my phone.... unless someone is an terminal guru and understands commands and knows linux inside and out because they developed the android OS... nobody on the learning side of this can make the instructions work...

So maybe a video, a tutorial on how to make this work would help the people learning on how to tweak there phones.. back in the day of rooting the moto z everyone had step by step easy to understand instructions which led to videos on how to root... now everyone says I got it to work... try a b c d e h I m n o t v y z... leaving out the steps to understand how the steps work...

This is great stuff here... now I wonder if I can find a video on this...
[T-Mobile LG V10 General] micber67:
this does the job of bypassing Carrier restrictions of using a hotspot or its limits.

you can also use it for sharing your hotspot with a VPN to another device (like a degoogled phone you just set up....

Wow this is an old thread. Is anyone even following it anymore? Anyway, I have Verizon, the tethering Nazi's haven't detected my method yet. Nord VPN on phone and VPN Hotspot app. Set the ttl of my laptop to 65, also added "settings put global tether_dun_required 0" as well as "net.tethering.noprovisioning=true" in build prop. Been running this setup for several years.
[T-Mobile LG V10 General] oldman20:
NordVPN always turn on?
[T-Mobile LG V10 General] n2music:
Still using this setup on Verizon with no tethering detected and yes I run the VPN anytime I tether. It may work without the VPN since I adjusted the ttl but I have not checked to see if it does. I prefer using the VPN for the protection and I do not have any google accounts or other email accounts setup on the computer. I understand you can be tracked by installing and using accounts even through a VPN so I access the accounts via the web without installing on my local machine.

When I disable data on sim1 the phone says no data connection even after restarting and turning on and off airplane mode. On the stock rom that I don't like because of touch with, I can just disable Sim 1 and enable sim 2 and use data on that sim.
