Unlimited Tethering Method Question - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am on T-Mobile
I know of the build.prop edit way, and the sqlite way .. Being on T-Mobile, which one of these methods is the correct way to enable unlimited data tethering?
Dirty Unicorns shamu

Anyone?

SQLlite. I am on a T-Mobile unlimited plan with no tethering allotment, and it works perfectly with the sqllite edit.
Not trying to be a douche, but you shouldn't bump a post earlier than 24 hours has passed. it's in the rules here.

Didn't know that sorry to the mods/forum..and thanks for the clarification on the tether issue
SimpleAOSP shamu

I am having problems with tethering. I have it working with the tether_dun_required 0 using sqlite
My problem is really strange it still accumulates on my t-mobile account.
I go to my account in t-mobile where I have 3GB of tethering
and it still shows up as MB's used and even stranger is the fact that I am using GB's but it only registers to my account as MB's.
Notification states wifi hotspot is on but no device connected.
This is a recent issue because up until a couple of days ago nothing registered to my account I am at a loss at what to try next.
I have tried on multiple roms with the same result anyone have any ideas?

HSDPA knocked out Internet Explorer... HELP!!!

Hi!
I've been hooked upto HSDPA on my Tytn II for a couple of days now and it appears to have knocked out my IE??? I get the following error message:
"The page cannot be found. Check the name and try again."
Opera mini & pRSSReader are working.
Viigo is not. I get the following error message:
"Error 0
Unable to receive response from the server. Please check your network connection. NameResolutionFailure."
I made a few changes on Advanced Configuration Tool but nothing (I think) that can be the cause.
Any ideas???
Cheers.
Mexy.
Wow ... not even a peep ....

That's Knocked out!!!
Could it be due to proxy?
Is it JUST IE or is it all network in and out of the phone? Maybe you don't have HSDPA and you've basically disabled what does work.
Hi All,
Update: I reflashed? the ROM and everything was working fine (both HSDPA and Internet Explorer).
but now it's gone again.
The only things I've done in the last day or so is to install:
3.5 .NET CF
Advanced Configuration Tool (Havent changed any setting - didnt even open it)
Pocket RSS (also unused so far)
& PDC - Which is a today clock plug in
So I uninstalled .NET but still not working uninstalled ACT still not working ...
I'm stumped
??????

It was just pocket IE and Viigo. Network connection for opera mini and pRSS reader were working fine.
i have this same problem on ATT, i use there media net package and after about 4 hrs of being connected i cannot use IE to browse the web or receive or send MMS's. the way i fixed it was just disconnect the internet connection and let it reconnect when i load IE and poof it works.
hope that helps.

[Q] Best ROM for enterprise wifi

I'm new to the forums but I have tried to read through as much as I can. I updated to 2.2 last week with the update from samsung. I knew that the "update" wouldn't work any better with my work's wifi connection but I wanted to try anyways.
My question is, out of all the roms out there, do any of them work using 802.1x security with authentication through peap and mschapv2?
I can see our network but can't connect to it, our radius servers don't even see my connection attempts. I work in the school's IT department so we have spent a pretty fair amount of time trying to make this work. Not just for me, but for other android users as well.
I've tried using a few of the wifi apps but none of them seem to help.
I am using a samsung captivate on att, not rooted.
Thanks for any help

Add the network manually and select the right authentication method. In settings>wireless
Thanks for the reply but I've been through the whole wifi menu and tried different settings and I can't seem to get anything to work so I was thinking of rooting and loading a rom if enterprise wifi connections are better.
Any rom is basically going to work the same as far as wifi goes. As long as you can select the settings to match your network as shown in the screenshot, it should work.

Not always. If he needs and ad-hoc connection he needs to use a different wpa_supplicant than the one that comes with stock and many of the custom roms. As well, it is possible that the dhcpcd on the rom he is running is not capable to obtain ip/dns/subnet from his particular network.
Take a look here for the dhcp info and here for the supplicant thingy (not sure if is compatible with galaxy s, there was one for SGS floating around but cant find it atm)
If still doesnt work, it should work by editing the bcm... something.conf in data (i dont have my phone with me.)
EDIT: Im using my phone with LEAP / IPsec and is a pain to configure it without an app that someone made for this specific network configuration

Fake access point on wifi list att s5

Hello
I have a rooted att s5 and in my wifi list I seem to have had 2 access points that were fake? Cad005 and Dre tega.
both were wpa2 secured with Mac id's of 000000 by xerox corp (I used wifi analyzer).
I was afraid I was hacked downloaded malware bytes lookout avg no virus or malware. I removed some questionable apps (always from play store. ...anyways after reboot it's gone.
When they were showing no other devices showed them as being access points? They always had th e same fixed signal strength in wifi analyzer
Any ideas?

Maybe. But the signal strength never varied while walking or driving which was kinda wiered. Anyway hasn't recurred since. Thanks
Same thing happened to me
Same thing happened to me with my stock ATT S5 (with the recent OTA - G900AUCU2ANG3). In my case, the access points are legit, but from a town I was in yesterday, 50 miles away. The MAC addresses are all zero and say Xerox in WiFi Analyzer (I suspect Xerox has the OID of zero, but haven't looked it up.)
It will probably clear up with a reboot, but it's strange that old access points that previously had a signal for are still showing up with a -80dB signal in both WiFi Analyzer and in Settings/Wireless.
From an earlier post, it looks like you did the update, too. I wonder if this is a new "feature"?
the samething,see a screenshot。。。

Ive not had the problem since i reset my phone (wipe). I still use WiFi analyzer and no recurrence. Might it have to do w the wifi driver made by wifi analyzer? Did others affected install that?

A note on freedompop sims.
These are supposed to arrive activated, however sometimes they mess this up and the sim wants to be activated when installed, but tells you that your email address is already in use when you try to activate it.
The easiest way to get this fixed is to private message user FreedomPop on slickdeals.net.

How to get free WI-FI Anywhere

Wi-Fi is available anywhere nowadays, but they have passwords. the best Wi-Fi is free Wi-Fi. Just be careful and find a free public Wi-Fi, which may not be secure. Here are some tips and tricks to help you stay connected with wifi while on the go.

Your Android Smartphone will already tell you your Wi-Fi connection is secured or not. Go to the Settings Then Wi-Fi and look for connections that are labeled ‘open’ or ‘unsecured’ and connect. Mostly look around public spaces, like cafes and Malls for passwords to be posted, or ask their neighbor if you can want to use their Wi-Fi network for a bit. The important thing you should remember to use your scanner and keep your eyes peeled.

Also, did you know that if you ask nice enough to any stranger in the mall, he/she might allow you to pair your phone via Bluetooth just for the LULZ...?
