[Q] How to make your Kyocera Rise into wifi hotspot? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I purchased Kyocera Rise during blackfriday sale (switching from LG Optimus V to Kyocera Rise). After playing on it for awhile, I wanted to use it as a wifi hotspot so I downloaded quicksetting app but wifi hotspot setting didn't work. My Rise is rooted and using stock ROM. I was be able to use my LG Optimus V (rooted and IHO rom) as a wifi hotspot this way but it isn't working for my Rise. Thank you in advance.

Wifi tether for root users on the market that's the one I use but you might have to play with the settings for it to work but it works on mine hope I helped

Thank you so much! It is working (luckily i didnt have to change any settings). FoxFi was not working so I almost gave up then you replied

Your welcome friend lol let me know if your battery gets colder the longer you use the tether

I to am switching from Optimus V
The mic on my Optimus V died, but I love the hotspot and that it is rooted.
Thanks, for this post! I have read that the phone doesn't come with google play or that it is a limited version of apps?? Is that true?
If I get this I will root it. How do you like the phone so far?

C5155 Kyocera Rise Virgin Mobile
Hey, I did something dumb and deleted system apps off my phone.
Could someone use root explorer and copy the stock folder: system/apps
or send a system dump.
I'm not sure of all the damage I've done but if you could at least give me a download/link, for Contacts.apk, Dialer.apk, Mms.apk
I'm still beating myself up over this, if anyone could help, I'd appreciate it.

That sucks i have never had that phone but no its not true, lol this phone has everything you need to have a full android device even ics. But I like it its strong so far lol trust me its been droped alot already and all we have is root no cwm recovery but does have a stock one, and no bootloader but other then the side keyboard and you cant beat $80 bucks right I like it haven't had a lot of FC. p.s sense I forgot to say before lol that the phone does every now and then drain battery if you use it a lot and for some reason my wifi will turn on by its self sense I actual got minutes for it
So if you want to know more about this phone just ask me or look it up. p.s.s if you don't know so if you choose a different phone almost any phone can rooted running ics/jb there's a thread on here

Replace the DOT with a period... Sorry, can't post links yet....

trust me..I GOT THIS
Step 1 root your phone
Step 2 download blackmart from google
Step 3 download lucky patcher from blackmart or the internet(app icon is a yellow happy face)
Step 4 download svtp wifi hotspot from blackmart(get the paid version..all apps are free from blackmart)
Step 5 install it and open lucky patcher and find the svtp app.
Step 6 hold over it and tap remove liscence verification(just use auto modes)
Step 7 when it finishes just use the svtp app and it should work..
It worked for me and I have kyocera rise through virgin mobile
If you don't know how to root than google it! You don't even need a computer for this model

Apps That Work With Temp Root

We all know that we can use titanium with the temp root. Have anyone tried any other apps that require root? We can post them up here if they work or not that way people can know what they can and can't use. Just thought it would give us something to do whiles we wait for s-off but at the same time it can be helpful to other people.
P.S. Sorry is someone posted a tried like this.....

tried several
ROM MANAGER works, but needs reboot after fix permissions.
I used it to partition my SD card which you need to run ADFREE
After you use it and re-boot you need to blow out superuser because it will fc (force close)
Re-root using Jeremy's Fre3dom busybox all in one works best and fastest for me..
Thus ADFREE for Android
Obviously ROOT EXPLORER and TITANIUM
ROOT MANAGER to remove bloat but again, you need to reboot after removing bloat... Back to Jeremy
WIRELESS TETHER needs a special kernel, (netflitered) It's not a root problem.

Barnacle has been reported as working with temp root and PDA Net Tablet works without root at least for the web browser, using your bluetooth connection. I've been using PDA Net with my Nook Color, but haven't tried Barnacle yet.
I was able to get my msl to work before Su started fc. It works.

Has anyone successfully changed the system font through Type Fresh? I tried numerous times, but it keeps giving me an error message; Cannot remount /system. If this doesn't work with the temp-root, does anyone know if there is any method to change the system font with the temp-root?

Wifi tether from the market works. Just set your device profile to generic ics.
this reply comes to you by way of Wifi Tether Beta14... hit the menu and choose Generic ICS under device profile.... i've always had good luck hitting menu again while in settings and "reload binaries" after choosing that device... sometimes i change the LAN settings to a different IP.. (especially with PS3) any change i make is followed by "reload binaries." don't know if it's necessary just a habit ive gotten used to.... either way, im tethered as i type this (stock rooted.. stock rooted unlocked... viper rom) all have worked... I live in the Virgin Islands... gots to have the tether

[Q] WIFI tethering for official ICS update

I stupidly unrooted and updated my GSII to official ICS update and lost the ability to use wifi tethering. Am I now gonna have to wait for someone to come along and create a rom for the new release that will allow a bypass of the tethering check or are there a couple simple lines in a file somewhere I can change.
Thanks for any info...as it stands, im now stuck working instead of watching netflix on my tethered GTab 10.1
UPDATE: I did some searching around and found that by deleting TetheringManager2.apk in system/app it should allow tethering to go through (I used Root Explorer to do it). Unfortunately, that doesnt seem to work. When I go to enable wifi tethering, the screen goes blank, everything stops responding for about 10 seconds and then it comes back saying settings has stopped responding. So...did I do it wrong or does it look like ATT changed something around with their ICS release?
Tethering is disable in stock ics. There is a gp app that will allow you to do so

This is a great wifi app, but you need to be rooted to use it.

Rooted my phone, root seems ok, but i still cant tether

I hope it's ok to make a topic about this... Been looking around without finding any duplicate posts. I should note that i had an older rezound that i rooted just fine on gb and it tethered fine.
This new one had ics before i rooted it, and i get issues with any tethering app i use; even barnacle, which was the one i used last time. Ill post the error message i get in a subsequent post, but i think it had to do with difficulties making an ad-hoc connection or something.
Anybody face this issue?

Use this app
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.googlecode.android.wifi.tether
Go to settings in the app, set devuce profile to HTC rezound or Samsung galaxy nexus CDMA.
Change setup method to net D master, turn off encryption and scroll down and check to enable routing fix.

Awesome, thank you for your post. I followed you up until the delete the verizon mobile hot spot app and the tetheringGuard.apk. What is the preferred way to do this? I have titanium backup pro (that i normally freeze my apps with, I know thats not the same) could i do it through there?

Don't worry about answering this. You can if you want. I just tried it from the point I was at and wifi tethering is now working. Thanks again man.

Razr with JellyBean(on few carriers) is not supported by FoxFi, as the carriers have made security measures to block the app.

"try PDANet with Foxfi" - read this somewhere. I havent used PDANet though. Give a try.
If I remember correctly, there was a mod for enabling wireless tethering on stock ROM.
Something to be changed in the SQL database. Don't know exactly coz I never used it.
Try searching for it.

got foxfi going
Alright so i started from square one again and foxfi is working on stock rooted, but it enables the verizon app and notification is this a normal thing ? every other wireless tether ive used didnt alert the verizon app or trigger it at all.
ive read about squ-lite and but not very deeply and have not attempted it what so ever
Check out Max!
I used SQLite Editor and did the entitlement edit and it was very easy. You have to pay a few bucks for the app thru the Google Play store but it is well worth it. You can check out the link below that shows a step by step video on the whole procedure plus instructions are wrote down too. Max does a lot of these tutorial videos for Android users and he is a great teacher!!! When you search for the category entitlement check it may be numbered different then what the video is but it's still labeled the same. If you have problems just post back here and I can help. Good luck!
