I have an AT&T set but it is now unlock and use in my country where I have no issue to use wifi tethering with my service provider in Singapore.
However each time I try to turn on wifi hotspot, it said go to AT&T url or dial 611 to use.
Can someone help? My device is already rooted. Thanks in advance
Updated : thanks to kiwi45. Just add tether under apn default type (default,tether)

i had this problem too, but i installed the gingerblur script (dev forum) and since you get the option to remove "bloatware", i am guessing there is an application in the phone that detects personal hotspot without an att tethering account.
you might want to freeze in titanium backup unneeded programs, there's a list on the forums
same problem
I search a solution in google,but,no result.
Anyone know it? please help us!!

you shouldnt have to freeze anything for mobile hotspot to work. did you put in the APN for your carrier? you cannot use the AT&T tether fix for your carrier you have to use your settings from your carrier.

But does that work on AT&T, or do they manage to block it?

You have to set your APN for your own carrier. Whatever works on AT&T does not matter in SG.

Works for me on Three in the UK with my normal APN. I have unlocked ATT handset. I just click through. Does your provider allow hot spot?

yeah. I'm from Malaysia and everytime I tick on the wi-fi hotspot box there will be a prompt asking me to enable the account at att.com/mywireless or dial 611.
my provider does allows tethering and I'm using unlock at&t device..
Just edit your APN to include "tether" in the Type field, i.e. Type: default -> Type: default,tether

thanks a lot kiwi45! i never thought it is that easy!
thanks again~
i have always had tether in my apn type however it doesn't work for me. When i activate hotspot, i get stuck at the "setting up data link" phase in the notification dialog, and i can't turn it off unless i reboot.

try turning on your wifi before you turn on mobile hotspot. i get stuck at the setting up data link too when i don't have wifi enabled.
Anyway, when I use aroot, I don't need to add tether on my apn setting. Unless you are using super one click. Btw, all using soc should update to aroot to clean up the mess.
Updated: I still need to add tether on the apn after testing even I use aroot.

d-oh! i always tried enabling wifi after turning it on. now it works. thanks. but it still has a bug, because it won't let you disable hotspot if you don't turn on wifi first, you need a reboot
I still get stuck on setting up data link. I make sure wifi is enabled and when I click hotspot, wifi turns off. I rooted aroot over soc. Any ideas?
nvm I got it to work. Right after I selected hotspot, I pressed home and turned on wifi. That seemed to work.
Hopefully this is in the right place, but I cannot put it in a specific area since I am new to the forums. THANKS ALL!
HELP…
I need to enter my MSL to “fix” the SiriusXM app (or other streaming apps). Before I was able to use the instructions below. With this new rom (I am thinking any 2.3, but I am running Fresh EVO 2.3.3) , it takes the code, but nothing comes up. Does anyone have a work around???
1) Dial ##3282#
2) Choose Edit Mode
3) Enter MSL
4) Choose Advanced
5) Change HTTP PD Proxy Port to: 0 (old 8085)
6) Change HTTP PD Proxy Address to: 0.0.0.0 (old pd.vog.sprintpcs.com)
Same problem here. I've been looking for an alternate, but I haven't seen anything yet. Any one had any success getting into the MSL menu with 2.3???
Reading Msl
I saw the method for reading msl code via cdma workshop but the pics showed cdma ws 3.5 and i have 2.7 will that proccess still work
u can get the msl from programs like dfs tools cdma workshop and qpst as well as msl reader from the market but i always find it easier calling your carrier and telling them you want to do a data restore or something like that.
as for it not recognizing the ##codes the person who made the rom couldve taken the epst apk in order to save room.
Ok, I opened chat to sprint support and asked for msl code. They told me that my device doesn't have MSL but then gave me what they called a 6 digit security code to reprgram my phone. Is this security code the MSL and they just didn't want to tell me.

yea thats probably it.
also, for anyone stuck in a 2.3 rom, try these codes
*#*#3282#*#* Data Restore
*#*#786#*#* Reverse Logistics Support (device wipe)
*#*#(your msl)#*#* reprogram phone # and msid
these are the codes we use at my store for the nexus s 4g. hope it helps
I have an issue. I have my msl and enter it. Using getprop (ril.MSL 123456) then use *#*#3282#*#* enter the msl. Always get invalid code. Using the number given to me by getprop.
Would being unrooted cause this?

Now it doesn't say invalid anymore after reboot. Now it just exits back out to menu to select what data setting I want to edit. I select wimax and it asks for msl again.type it back out to the menu I go.
Any suggestions?

I have a T-Mobile account and an android smart phone that includes hotspot service with them. The app that authenticates that uses my phone number to check against the database of phones that are allowed.
Now I know we have the ability to fake an IMEI, but can we also fake a mobile number so my nook color can sign into my hotspot account?

I'm a bit confused regarding your situation. I suppose my situation may differ from yours but all works for me. I have a mytouch 4g with the wifi hotspot app and have no issues connecting my nook and (or) any other pc or phone to my wifi hotspot.

He's asking if it's possible to configure his Nook to masquerade as his phone, rather than tethering to his phone first.
Settings, Call Settings, Additional Settings, My phone number
Believe it helps my NC use my Fios apps that appear to require a valid number
You've got it right. Want to make the nook pretend to be my phone.
Sent from my NookColor using XDA Premium App
I successfully use this technique via the call settings to enter a phone number to get the fios remote app to work, BUT I find the phone number entered doesn't stick to well. It always seems to revert to unknown after some time which can be from a few hours to a few days of use.
I suspect the number is cached somewhere but then the OS decides to refresh it from a non-existent SIM and it gets lost. Currently I have to check the phone number each time before firing up the fios remote app.
Anybody else experience this or know how to make this setting stick.
Is anyone having any issues getting the NC5 Hotspot Mod to work? Every time I try to use it the device that I'm hooking it up to always says obtaining ip address and it never connects. I was just wondering if this was something blocked by Sprint. I'm on the old One Up unlimited everything plan. I never have this problem on AOSP!<br/>

Which NC5 hotspot mod did you try installing? As far as I'm aware, there's no "mod" which work for stock NC5. You can try a custom NC5-based ROM which includes wifi tethering. These have worked for me with no issues.
If you're running the stock NC5, one thing you can try is getting your MSL and adding "dun" to your apns. The process is outlined in this thread.

You need to read the forum, all the questions are already answered you just need to search and look not just ask.
Step by Step:

Dial ##data#
Select Edit
Put your MSL # and click OK
Scroll to bottom and select More
Scroll to bottom and select LTE APN Settings
Got to APN2 LTE internet

Is there a way to get unlimited hotspot on the Tmobile Pixel 6? I know the old method was to add dun to the apn settingsof older phones but not sure what works now with Android 12 and the Pixel 6. Could anyone post or link to a guide or steer me in the right direction?

I don't think there is a guide as it's likely changing the APN still works. However, be careful with tethering or hotspot use as the carriers do monitor their traffic and can tell if you are doing either.
Look into PdaNet+
3rd party app, but works great. Has a feature called Hide Tether Usage too, not sure how reliable that is though.
If your are rooted look for vpn hotspot that's the best way to tether without restrictions, if you're not rooted you can use pdanet as someone has mention previously
I have been tethering on A12 for a long time using a personal method of mine since A10 on the carrier ATT.
Background: By default i have an unlimited texting calling and unlimited data plan with ATT but no hotspot allowed at all within the plan. I wanted to hotspot for video game reasons. Now for my method
My method uses a combination of methods I have found through various threads. It also has a few pre requisites like being able to unlock your BL, root and being able to change your APN/add a new APN.
First you have to be rooted and use the module magiskhidepropsconfig and add a prop. You can Google search the module to find it on GitHub. The prop you need to add is "net.tethering.noprovisioning" using a terminal and set that prop to true. This prop adds the ability for you to tether without the device reporting it as tethering directly.
Next you need to screenshot your entire DEFAULT APN as you need to copy the original one and add that same EXACT SAME APN but with ONE minor change. The change being under "APN TYPE" you need to add "DUN", no spaces in all caps at the end. If you try adding 'dun' in lowercase, this WILL NOT WORK and will NOT let you add it.
This is because "dun" is the code for tethering under the 'APN type' and that will allow your device to tether making your device think you have your "carrier's permission" to tether. This also will allow you tether for long periods of time without it shutting off automatically.
After that you're done and should be able to tether, I'll attach to screenshots, one as proof and one of the 'APN type' change. This method also survives OTA's.

A couple of questions:
-- Is this method the same regardless of carrier? (I have Verizon)
-- I usually do a full flash of the monthly updates without wiping, will it survive that method rather than OTA?
Changing APN setting works adding dun. Sprint/tmobile added an APN called pam, it was doing the monitoring so I had to delete it completely and push a new APN and preferred APN using adb root and some commands.
