I'm a noob....Define 'Native' Tethering App?
I have the DNA, rooted, and use Wifi Tether (App Store) with some modified settings and it works.

im referring to the tethering & portable hotspot. not the third party app
No it hasn't been hacked yet to bypass the check.
You used to be able to use the app "power toggles" I don't know how ir did it, but, when you used the hotspot toggle, it just turned on the naitive hotspot app and didn't check for subscription. Didn't even need root. I tested this one day at a haw store. Installed power toggles on like 8 of the display phones and turned on the hotspots, no security , with ssids like "free internet!" , "vzw free hotspot" and so on
Worked on all models lol

Coming from Mono to Shift ROM.
I used wireless tether on Mono without an issue.
HotSpot icon is on Shift, I click on it and a window pops up telling me to call a number for this feature. I am paying for it with Verizon and have been for some time now.

So, what do I need to do inorder for wireless tether to work again?

I can't say for sure, but I've heard of some ROMs where the native wireless tethering app doesn't work. Usually a third part app will, such as Wireless Tether.
1.4 has a fully working VZW HotSpot. Once you except you are good. As long as you pay for it. :

Strange indeed. I have paid for it since my Samsung Fascinate. Switched to TBolt and it worked fine. I have never dealt with 3rd party Tethering until I rooted and went to mono rom. Then I used the one that was built into that rom and not the VZ hotspot app. Now switching to Shift the 3rd party is not there and the VZ is. When I attempt to turn on the VZ app it gives me a window with 2 numbers to call to activate. I now have installed a 3rd party app and it works.
I just wonder if VZ somehow flagged my account since I used a 3rd party (free) version when I went to Mono.
The only tethering I have ever used is third party and I have not had any trouble.

So just curious, but Wireless Tether is just the 3rd party version/replacement for Verizon's Mobile Hotspot? Same purpose?
I've heard that Foxfi doesn't work with the Droid DNA--is there any way to use turn this device into a mobile hotspot without having it pre-included in my data plan?
This is my first smartphone; I've been using my Nexus 7 and a dumb phone for the past few months now, and I felt I should upgrade to a smartphone since I'm not living on campus anymore. This seems like a great phone in and of itself, but I'd still like the option to tether my tablet. Any suggestions?
As long as you are rooted, you can use WiFi Tether For Root Users (yellow WiFi bars picture) and it will tether just fine. You won't need to include tethering in a data plan to use it.

unless you have unlimited you dont need to pay for it in your data plan, they cant charge twice for limited data

Yeah but that's one more app running in the background. If you have that feature built in the os why not run the native app IF it works? That's why I'm asking... does it work?

It only runs in the background if you have it turned on and you are using it, just like any stock app.
Wow....I cant seem to get wifi tether working. Have all the settings checked properly. Wlan0, routing fix, auto,....It starts with errors. Looking at the log all are red but three. Any suggestions?.....and no i cant use built in app....unlimited data i have...thanks in advance...

I am seeing exactly the same issue. Numerous errors on starting, unable to tether. Or more precisely, other devices can see the hotspot and tether to it, but do not get Internet access.
My main problem is that my phone will show up as a device instead of a router (like it used to on my OG Incredible), thus not allowing other phones or tablets to connect to it because they don't see the connection. Laptops work find though. I use "wireless tether for root users" with the green signal symbol and not the newer version because the new one doesn't show the data speeds and total data used in the app.
I am using the latest yellow version and both my Galaxy Note and Lenovo laptop tether to it but do not get Internet access.
sorry for jumping on old post.
Just wondering. On my moto droidbrazr maxxbi did an sqlight hack to bypass the entitlement check and was able to use the stock hotspot app even though i was on unlimited data. Would a similar work around work for dna?
Here are the settings that are working for me on ViperDNA 1.1.2

LOL for anyone still using the DNA, I just installed NuSense Six and FoxFi works perfectly - not ad-hoc, full infrastructure mode, so it will work with devices other than PCs.

I'm using all stock roms (I was s-off and flashed stock recovery, grabbed OTAs, flashed TWRP recovery). I installed SuperSU & BusyBox than was able to tether using Barnacle Wifi Tether~ it gave me an error for adhoc but I was able to click associate and use my 4g on an iPad.(Also checked external IPs & ran speedtests to confirm it was using 4G)
Not working for me. It gets stuck at "please wait while starting". And just spins. I can back out of it but nothing good happens.
I have looked and looked, but I haven't gotten a straight forward answer on this.
I don't want to root my phone. Which app still lets me tether without having to turn on the Verizon hotspot and get charged extra for that service? (much like Foxfi does for just about every other phone I've seen)
No, just use a widget.

What widget? I just bought the Note 2 a day ago so I am still trying to figure it all out. Came from a Moto Droid X so this thing feels light years ahead of me.
Any widget that toggles wifi tether.
search the play store.

Ok, now I feel like an idiot.
I just got the Note 2, and signed a new contract. Last time I signed a contract (2+ years ago), they wanted 20 something bucks for you to use their VZW Hotspot, so I always used Foxfi to get around it and just use up all of my data plan. I guess Verizon just got smart and made it free? :silly:
Had me worried when I kept downloading *Free Wi-Fi hotspot* apps and they kicked me over to the VZW app instead.
Thanks for the help!:laugh:
Its not free but it is included with any of the new plans. If you still have unlimited data its still frowned upon. With that said yes you can use a toggle but the hotspot will drop data frequently. I recommend you root and install the wireless tether from google. Settings i use are S3 profile, netd-ndc setup, check th3 following: send netd, both wifi driver reloads, mss clamping, and router fix.

Try "elixir 2 widgets" which is different from "elixir 2" from the play store. Once installed create a widget on your home screen for wifi tether and it should bypass the vzw block. It worked on stock unrooted vzw build for me but now I dont need it. Yay!

Hello all, I have a rooted S2 with a stock ROM (ICS). I had to accomplish a master reset due to some issues I was experiencing. Prior to the reset I was using WiFi tethering. I have a grandfathered account with AT&T and so I used the tethering hack/option with my phone previously. For the life of me I cannot get it to work once again. I have done research on he web and can not find how I did it before. I have Titanium back up and in reviewing all the apps I do NOT have Tethering Manager APK to freeze.
I remember that after I either installed or modified something on the phone that i would go through the normal tethering option in settings and select tethering. The little blue icon would show up in the notification bar but the dialog box would remain saying it was working on activating the tethering option. All I had to do was to select the Home button and Wa-La I had tethering active for my tablet.
I would appreciate any help in getting WiFi tethering to work again.

Be careful sing the WiFi tethering option in stock. I believe AT&T is able to see if you tether on stock. When I was on stock (and unrooted) I used Foxfi WiFi tether. Just google it.

He stated he was grandfathered in so it shouldn't be a problem right?

Probably not. I didn't even know you could tether without root as the big A wan't to sell you the ability to tether. If he pays att for the tethering plan he should contact customer service. If he wants to do it the XDA way he needs to flash a rom.
Just my opinion. I am not totally certain of any of the above information. Just the way I understand what information I have seen.
Found It!!
Found out how to enable WiFi on stock AT&T ROM
Here it is!!!

If you are on AT&T you may need to be rooted and delete a folder in system/app called ATTEntitle. It should fix Hotspot in 3rd party tether app or (Free) Native Android Hotspot in settings. If you are on another carrier I don't know. I have been trying to get none working for a while. See here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3307384
I'm on T-Mobile. I have the grandfathered $80 unlimited 4g LTE with 7gbs hotspot. And I'm rooted. Busybox installed.

I think you CAN use Native Android Hotspot in instead of 3rd party tether but you need to change your "tether APN" to default "internet APN."
Maybe this thread can help http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmo...lopment/unrestricted-tethering-n920t-t3188301 But if you Try this you will want to monitor your data usage on T-Mobile website (or however you keep track). You don't want to run out of "tether data" if you can prevent it.

I tried using native hotspot last night and it worked great. Streamed about 4 movies last night. Verified my T-Mobile account this morning and I can confirm that my wifi hotspot shows 7.9mb/7GBs.
This is what my account shows
Very nice, so just using the app alone has stopped the tethering number from climbing?
