Verizon G4 13B Native Hotspot Provision - Verizon LG G4

Hey everyone, @xdabbeb was kind enough to modify the original 13B hotspot provision for our phone. I know people have been having issues with data packet drops and other hotspot problems with the modified LG G3 hotspot provision that we've been using from the other hotspot thread, and this might fix these issues. Replace apk in the system/app/HotspotProvision folder, set permissions, and reboot.

No, you need root for this.

OK, Thank you... This is the only feature I wish my LG4 had as I still have unlimited data grandfathered in.. Looks like its time to do the KDZ method finally.

I didn't realize this existed, much better to use the native app and modded for unlimited access. I've had to reinstall this app because I went to 13b. On a separate note, I got a warning message that requires a Verizon LTE SIM to use the hotspot, but it allowed me to use on AT&T 4G (HSPA+) on grandfathered unlimited data plan. Thanks for the thread.

now usb tethering is working too. thanks

I know this is an old thread, but I wanted to report this file worked for me with the 2BA firmware. I just switched over to Red Pocket and I was having issues with the regular hotspot application functioning (Verizon restrictions), but this let me use the hotspot once more. I'll be switching over to the GSMA version next month, hopefully it will continue to function. Thanks!

[Q] FREE TETHER for 4.4.2 :confused:

Is there any possible way to enable free WiFi Tethering on the Official I747UCUFNE4 (4.4.2) OTA build? I've searched everywhere and have not come up with any possible solutions.

I'm on AT&T family data plan. That might be the only way to get free wifi tether. Technically not free, since it just uses data from your available data plan, but I know what you mean.
Maybe someone else will chime in.
I'm using a former AT&T Galaxy S3 on T-Mobile now, and I couldn't start tethering at all, even though it's fully allowed by my plan. I ended up solving the problem with xtether, an xposed module. It bypassed the attempt to contact ATT before starting tether, it might work for those still on ATT as well.
Good luck,
Dan

Wifi tethering method?

What's up,
Has anybody figured out a way to tether LTE data through our galaxy s7 actives without having to activate it through att? I have used fox Fi on previous devices as well as custom Roms and tweaks to get this feature working so I can use my unlimited data to its potential while on longs trips with a tablet. Any help or pointers would be greatly appreciated!
Cheers

I think sidesync is your best best. It's worked on my s7 edge, note 7 and now s7 active. It's not wireless, but it does the job.
there is a way to do it using an att apn and then once the hotspot starts up, go back to the apn and then switch back to the original.
it worked back when i had the s7 active.

I will give it a try, where did you find the apn credentials?

**UPDATE** I have wifi tethering working via the root method as described in this method.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-active/help/samsung-galaxy-s7-active-root-t3473649
Once rooted you will have to install the Xposed framework, and activate the "X tether" module which can be found in the root thread. Once that has been activated, you will be able to use your phone as a wifi hotspot without activating the annoying ATT plan :good:
odd, as im in UK... (on three) using my Active, my mobile hotspot works with the inbuilt stuff from settings ! .. no problems whatso ever!?..
Yup I'm currently not rooted, I got into my settings, Connections Mobile Hotspot turn it on. I've never had to pay extra for it or anything it just works on my S7 Active and I use it a fair amount.

What carrier?
indeed groover1... now im on Nougat (PL4 still) have a quicksettings toggle button too
Is3mach, im in the UK on Three....
I have unlimited data but can't tether...
When you sign up for At&t unlimited data plan, they take your ability to tether. Will rooting allow me to make my phone a mobile hotspot while I'm still on an unlimited data plan? If so, could someone point me in the right direction please?

Cricket Hotspot -Oreo free tethering?

Anyone with cricket and the oreo update installed:
Does the hotspot still work to get you free tethering?

Even if it doesn't there's always a way to get tethering to work. There's a app called wifi tether on play store will work might need root though
yea... but I really want to avoid root....
should work
Any phone that isn't carrier locked should work. Cricket auto setup the internet apn and a tethering apn when I first put the sim card in my 7x. If it does this just delete the tethering apn and you should be good to go. Unlocked phones don't have the carrier firmware that notifies them if the hotspot is on or give them the ability to control hotspot access.
Nice thread. I'm also a cricket customer and once I get the update I'll give it a test and report it back here ?
It's dead
I updated today with the SE NA keyone. I can confirm the update will kill your free hotspot tethering. I've even tried creating other APNs with no luck. I tried using pda+ as well and that did not work.

Looks like tha thread is about enabling tether while OP was asking about bypassing throttling on tether. I am also interested in bypassing throttling but haven't found any real way that Verizon doesn't get past with its deep scans

I am on a grandfathered UDP on Verizon and I am using the MagiskHideProps method for enabling tethering and I have seen no evidence that Verizon has any visibility to my tethering activity. (My verizon bill each month indicates that I had no HotSpot activity - and I do use the hotspot several times each month)....perhaps this is an artifact of the grandfathered UDP - but those plans aren't supposed to even include tethering - throttled or not.
Thx,
S
guys my hotspot is unlocked and i just want to bypass the verizion throttling. with my unlimited plan i get 10 gb of data hs after that it gets knocked down to 3g. so i dont want to unlock hs i want to hide my hs useage.
How do I hide tethering in magestic hide and I will see if it throttles.Im also on grandfathered plan too.Sean

I didn't do anything specific to hide tethering. I enabled the use of the native tethering capability by using MagiskHideProps to add the net.tethering.noprovisioning = true. This bypasses the provisioning/subscription check to Verizon and simply starts the hotspot immediately. Using this method, I have never seen any evidence that Verizon "sees" my hotspot activity. My bill always indicates that no Hotspot usage occurred each month. Perhaps, by bypassing the provisioning check, Verizon does not know to "track" hotspot usage??? Not sure...
Thanks,
S
Sb was your hotspot unlocked and you get 15 gb a month? What is magiskhide props exactly?? What is your phone rooted with?

I am on a grandfathered unlimited data plan which does not include hotspot. I use the magisk to root and magiskhideprops to make the build.prop edit of net.tether.noprovisioning=true which allows me to tether. The forum thread I linked to earlier has more details and you can also find tons of documentation on magisk and magiskhideprops on the magisk forums.

Question S22 hotspot workaround

Has anyone discovered a workaround for the message "to use mobile hotspot you will need to subscribe to a hotspot service"? I have unlimited data on this line and I would like to use it. Thanks a ton!

That will depend on your carrier. Have you tried the USB route?
Carrier is Verizon. Was hoping not to use USB. Any idea if root / unlocked android will fix the issue?
Try pda net. Some carriers in their infinite power to be an ass block it on the play store. But pda net devs don't give a **** and put it on their website.

do you have the play more/do more plan? The basic plan does not include hotspot. I am also on verizon and my hotspot works fine.

What about with T-Mobile? Ever since switching from Sprint SIM to T-Mobile SIM, adding ",dun" to APN doesn't work anymore. Currently using S8+ on Android 9, if that matters

I don't know about T-mobile. I'm on Verizon. I get 25GB of hotspot data with my plan.

Rooting won't help and it's probably not worth the effort. I've used PDANet back when I had my original Verizon unlimited plan. I could connect via USB.
I used to flash the U1 firmware to bypass this when I had a plan that didn't support mobile Hotspot. Before that I used PDAnet for usb tethering or even a different APN setting to prevent blocking.
