I can't figure out how to get free tethering on the new update, the only program I see on tb is TetheringProvision 1.05.09 and freezing/uninstalling it just makes the screen go black when I try to turn on portable hotspot. Thanks a bunch!
Hit the Play Store and download FoxFi (free app). Will provide the same functionality without the crashing.

Hi...how do you tether? I have the att 4glte/wifi tablet and I am so freakin clueless. I think I rooted the tablet because the superuser app works.
Doesn't work on my rooted AT&T SAMSUNG-SGH-I957.
I get a message that it is not supported.

I am on version (according to Titanium) Barnacle Wifi Tether 0.6.7 (evo) and it works perfectly...
I am also rooted and o/c @ 1.728GHz
Are you at least able to install it? You get the error when running the app? Or when exactly?

I can install the app but when I run it, I get the message "not supported". Do I need to change any settings on the Tab? I saw this "(check under setting skip wpa_supplicant)" in the post above but I don't know what that means.
Thanks for the help.

It's really weird. I can't get into settings. I tap the setting icon (the multiple stacked lines) and nothing happens. Are you using the free version?

Just in case if you don't want to root your phone and don't want to pay $50 bucks for the plan. Here's another solution. FREE TETHER APP from Android Play market:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.foxfi
or you can search FoxFi on the Note. Free for now. Get it while it last.
if you already rooted, Just use TB backup freeze/uninstall TeltherManager app and use the build in hotspot feature in Settings.
Downloaded this from the link and it downloaded and installed but the market errored out and told me it couldn't find the needed information. It did download and install the app. Pulled the apk to send out if needed since its been pulled from the market.

Hi, i was trying to enable wifi portable hotspot on my rooted and unlocked i717, i was reading in the forums and some people were able to do it just uninstalling or freezing "tetheringmanager" with titanium backup, but i can't find that service listed in my device, instead of that i have "tethering provisions" but if i uninstall or freeze and then try to enable portable hotspot my screen goes black and there is an error saying "settings has crashed...".
is there any way to enable native tethering and portable wifi hot spot in the at&t galaxy note i717????
any help would be sooooo appreciated.
thank you so much for your time

Android 4.0.4, rooted and unlocked (currently being used on international operator with unlimited data plan)

nothing yet, i hope someone here can give me a light...i don't like to use 3rd party apps
I'm pretty sure you can't do it unless you flash a rom with free tethering enabled or use a 3rd party app

hey, i just found the solution!!!!!!!!!!
simply download "tethering widget" from the android market and turn on/off the hotspot option from there, you don't need to freeze or uninstall anything....that's all so easy and working great, my laptop is now on the web through my note
i hope this works for you too, please let me know

This should have its own post. That's awesome! No root required. As easy as downloading a 476kb apk off the play store. Thanks for that!

How can I get tethering to function on a rooted Tmo One?
Go grab wireless tether from the Google Play Store. If you're rooted that should work.

I've tried foxfi but it fires up the Mobile Hotshot app from the tmo stock rom. Then only the tmo hotshot active is discoverable.

Vpn shield is an app in market
It's used to block T-Mobile from seeing any tether being pulled from carriers data .
It's essentially used with trevemod.
If you don't start Vpn shield before tethering eventually tmobile will catch on and block it.
Really it's good for people on any data especially unlimited . Allows you to tether as much as you want with out detection.

I got tethering to work!
First unlock and root.
Second, flash a kernel if you want to stay stock (which I prefer). I recommend this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2255900
or
Flash a custom rom
Finally, install this app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.googlecode.android.wifi.tether
Change device-profile to "Generic ICS/JB (wlan0).
That's it! You should be good to go.

I've used FoxFi in the past and it worked well until I got my Mega. I've heard that a fix is to boot into recovery and clear the cache partition but it is failing for me.

Stop the native WiFi tethering client running and use Mobile Hotspot from the play store. Use the one with the green droid peering at you from the bottom of the app icon. When settings fail just ignore.

Tried that. It still says "Dial 611 and sign up for teathering service" when I try to activate. Same thing with FoxFi... :crying:

No bueno. With that app I still get "Mobile hotspot is unavailable. To enable mobile hotspot on this device, go to att.com/mywireless or dial 611". And the little green dude spins forever when I click "Ok".

ok. No tension. I will try next only for you..
If you are on ATT, it comes with a Mobile Hotspot app....unless you turned it off.
Once you go in to the app, it will have to be configured and assigned a name. You will be given a password to use.
It works very well. I use my Mega as a hotspot for my wifi Tab 3. Just have to remember that while it's on, you will be using your data!
