Can anyone tell me if this is possible, rooted or not? I would like to know before going back to the 50$ a month plus 5$ for hotspot as well as deciding whether to root my phone.
i tether to my other android phones
ijust changed a build prop line
something like - provision tethering= false
to true
then use foxfi
havent tried connecting with my laptop yet
I have the L9,i share a plan with my mom and brother me and my brother have the $50 unlimited plan and i use the hotspot and they don't charge extra
i have 2 other tricks for Throttling and Data records, These i think i will have to give in pvt message. not sure of the rules
Will it even tether at all on the 60 dollar plan for you? I have the 50 dollar plan with the 2.5 gb cap that asked me to purchase the hotspot add on for 5 bux. If you get the 60 dollar plan will the phone even allow it to tether at all? I think if it does I can just use a vpn?
this is also what i did
go into airplane mode
the go to data/sysyem/netstats
delete all files
change data/system/netstats folder permissions to read only
everytime you boot you will have fresh data records (0)
data/system/throttle
remove All permissions to this folder and the files inside
this seems to remove temporary throttling on large file downloads
reboot and turn off airplane mode
Using the build.prop method mentioned above, you can get free tethering on the 60$ month plan and no cap on data.
oh i forgot
also changed
net policy lines
metered.... from true to false
infered ...from true to false
When using foxfi is it suppose to turn the metro 4g hotspot app on as well I see when I run that it basically just send that info to the 4g hotspot app? sasuske I assume you tethered to a laptop right and that works for you? no useragentstrings changed or anything?

Old topic, I know, but I figured I would bump this just to let everyone know that this works like a charm. If anyone is looking for a way to get unlimited mobile hotspot/tethering, this seems to be it!this is also what i did
