Hey thanks for clicking this! I know how to get unlimited tethering!

1. Download SQLite Editor

2. Inside App go to the "files" tab and click (data,data,com.android.provider.settings)

3. Click the databases folder

4. Click settings.db and press the + sign

5. Put "tether_dun_required" in name

6. Then the value as "0"

Click save and Reboot!

There you go! You now have unlimited wifi tethering! Enjoy!
 
Metro and T-Mobile now allows a certain amount of free tethering per month, the amount varies with the different plans. This doesn't get unlimited tethering you just probably haven't hit the cap yet.
I have been using this for about a month now, and Haven't Hit the limit yet. I got a message from metropcs said I reached it, and I still could tether sooooo...

I know you said this is for two roms, that our available for phone. But will this work on stock? I had AOKP, but no longer supported. So switched to stock.

Weird I didn't need any special tricks on AOKP Rom for native tether. It worked and no cap. Even when I checked official MetroPCS app, showed no Hotspot data used lol. Even after 150 Hotspot GBs used lol.

Nope, I tried the other day because Aokp was Getting slow, and i went back to stock, and when i do the steps up above, the tether does not work at all, it like disables it, i think. You could try, but i don't recommend it.
