WiFi Tether subscription workaround? - Verizon Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey,
So I want to use the wireless tethering in the stock ROM, but i'm not sure how to remove the subscription check. FoxFi doesn't seem to work, nor does Wifi Tether for Root Users. Is it like Moto phones in where you find the carrier information and modify it with an SQL editor? I'm kind of confused.
Thanks!
Zeke.

I installed Foxfi from the store ...opened it...left it as an open network...set the pin lock...accepted the credential. ..it asks to go to my settings to start up wifi hotspot...
Hope this helps.

Foxfi works perfectly fine on my retail note. My ps4, laptop and iPad all connect without an issue. I do have the paid key

For those of you that have the paid version, are you missing the menu button? I also downloaded the add on and somehow the extra options including the proxy settings are missing. Doesn't the proxy settings allow you to conceal the data usage from Verizon?

not sure i am on stock ANI1. should though its just simple changes

I tested the demo version first to make sure it worked, then bought the app. Never had any problems.. The enhanced LTE in the Detroit area is FAST!

Long press the recents button for the menu. Same goes for any app missing the menu button.

[Q] Wifi Hotspot in Cyanogenmod 10.1 Non-Functional

Forewarning: I have not posted for help here before. I will try to include as much detail as is necessary without giving way to a flood.
Device: VZW Galaxy Nexus
OS: Cyanogenmod 10.1 (toro)
App attempted: Wifi Tether for Root Users (v 3.2-beta2)
I chose the above app because it seems to be what a great deal of people use once rooting their phones. When I tap to start tethering, I'm told that errors have happened and that I can view the log to see them. I've attached a screenshot of the log.
Any suggestions, anyone?
Why are you using some app other than stock?
CM supports it with out of the box functionality.
Settings--> More-->Tethering & portable hotspot-->Portable Wi-Fi hotspot.
Oh

I am not a clever man. I wasn't certain if I would be able to use the CM default hotspot without VZW finding out. So long as that thing is safe to use and they won't find out, then I'll definitely use that instead.

They can easily find out. Whatever you're tethering will likely have a user agent other than the Android one. Anybody with 2 brain cells can figure out what that means.
Well then

Solved!!!! The problem is that my network operator (CoopVoce) is virtual.
So I had to modify my APN setting adding "default,supl" as APN type.
Now it works great!!!!

SideSync 3.0 and Note 3

I've been using the 8.4 for a few days now and while I really enjoy the SideSync feature to sync up my Note 3 phone when it's not on hand, I haven't been able to open a keyboard to actually type anything, respond to a text message etc.
I was wondering if there is anyway to activate a keyboard.
Thanks!
My keyboard auto pops up.

Same here, but I can't get mine to connect without launching the phone app each time
I have to launch the app each time too.
Does your battery on your note 3 not like just drop like a rock? Seems for me when it is connected by wifi direct it just drops like a rock.
I found the solution. I installed a S5 keyboard on my note 3 and it worked after that. I'm running Effortless rom on my t-mobile note 3, that's where I got the keyboard linked below.

Thanks! Working great now. Last question - is it possible for me to install a zip file without having a rooted phone? My note 3 isn't rooted.
To install that particular zip, you need root. It needs to write that keyboard to the system folder which is only writable if you have root

Grabbed the zip and flashed it. But now my Samsung Keyboard isn't working at all - I'm getting a force close whenever it's set as the default.

So has anyone solved this problem of having to launch the app on the phone each time? It'd be much more useful if we can keep the app running on the phone so we don't actually have to physically get the phone in order to use it.

You need two requirements to be satisfied:
Your carrier has to support this.
Your messaging app has to support this through a feature in the settings.
I know an app that supports this functionality is 8SMS.

I'm not sure if AT&T supports this, or if it's an add-on you'd have to add to your plan. You can look into that and see. However, for the second requirement, you can download a different SMS app to test if SMS over wifi works out of the box.

Day 2 Of My S6
Hi, all. I picked up my S6 yesterday, used PingPong and am now rooted. I have been on XDA since I purchased an Epic years ago, so I am not exactly a n00b, but I have two questions for @JoeFCaputo113, if you don't mind:
1) Which SQLite app are you using? Any recommendations among the paid or free versions?
2) Is there a significant difference between Flashfire and Flashify? I have used Flashify for years, but I a perfectly willing to learn new things.
Also, thank you very much for this and your other threads. I appreciate your contributions to the community.

Since you used ping pong to root. Then you havent tripped the knox counter.
So in turn the biggest difference between flashify and flashfire...
Flashfire = no trip flashes
Flashify = tripped flashes
Essentially they do the same thing. But flashfire has been created so that we can keep the knox flash counter 0x0! !

1. I am using the SQLite editor app linked in the OP, but you can TRY ANY OF THESE.
2. Use Flashfire and do NOT install a custom recovery, that way your Knox counter and warranty won't be void!

Nice i just sent him a message asking if hes gonna update it.its fast and super smooth
I like it so far, I still have to do some tests.
Also, for Verizon USA people:
Set your preferred network type to LTE and your APN to VZWINTERNET.
It shows up as Verizon Wireless instead of 3107 and has LTE instead of roaming as the data type. This is ****ing lit, I'mma do some more tests.
And that causes SMS not to work for me. Back to the drawing board, I think some build.prop edits should help.
Edit: CDMA+EVDO/CDMA mode works like a charm minus the 3107 label and the fact that is says roaming. Oh well. SMS/MMS/Data/Calls work fine.
