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!

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?

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.

You rooted and/or running a custom rom?

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
at&t galaxy note i717
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

tetheringmanager apk but that is not present in my i717 with android 4.0.4, maybe it was only in older android versions

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!
you are welcome!!!!!
I've tried to download everything from playstore ... NONE OF THEM WORK
I've even used blackmart to download every available app for wifi hospot .. and still no luck..
Did anyone find out working (I don't want to root cause of knox status) wifi hospot without root ?
Thanks.

What kind of carrier do you have ?
I tried use PDAnet+ and foxfi, both of them doesn't work.
MIP error 64 ?
Haven't found a working hot spot without root sorry.
But it is possible to get root and not flip a knox flag.

You cannot.
You'll need to read the forum threads.
Everything you want to know is easy to find by just browsing/searching.

I would recommend taking a look at FoxFi and if your rooted Wireless Tether for Root Users. Keep in mind depending on your carrier handles tethering you may have to change some app settings, for tethering to function properly. Let me know if you still have questions.

Are using the wireless hotspot or USB tethering feature of Foxfi? Make sure that your in a location where your phone is getting a strong data signal as well.
