Trusted Networks - T-Mobile Note 7 Questions & Answers

Hello, my Note 5 had this trusted Networks where you didn't have to unlock phone in you were at home or any network you selected.
Can't seem to find it on my note 7. I'm prompted to add trusted devices, but no networks.
Am I just not seeing it or was it removed?
TIA

Goto Settings, and at the top search for smart lock.

[Q] Location settings in Google Now

When I go to google now, I have only one tile that says "Location service is off, please turn it on to continue using google now." and that I should turn it on in settings. In my location settings all the checkboxes are checked. The maps app works. What can I do?
Scroll down in Google now and click on the 3 dot icon in the bottom right and hit settings. Make sure Google now is turned on

This happened to me too... As far as I know there's no fix but maybe a hard reset might work. Mine was like that for about 2 weeks and the weather would say current location instead of where I was located. Then 1 day it magically fixed itself.

When the card comes up saying home or work, you should also be able to tap the little (i) and confirm if Google has its guess right.
Update the Google play store....it should have rolled out to you by now. The latest version fixed a couple of location issues

tethering availability

hello, just wondering if anyone manage to work the tethering? I tried the foxfi app but no luck, even the es file manager app under net manager option didn't work, haay

Foxfi works fine for me. When you get the pop up telling you to contact att press the home button instead of tapping ok. The hot spot stays active this way
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using xda app-developers app
It stays active but did you actually connect to it and surf the Internet?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Foxfi doesn't work on and it connects but surfing the Internet is a no go we need an alternative.

Yea with a grandfathered unlimited plan so an actual tethering plan from at&t isn't offered to me. I'd be more than happy to pay the small fee if it were even offered though...

Yesterday I tried feverishly to get foxfi to work with no luck even doing it exactly as op had done. So now I see this thread and figure okay ill try again.... and guess what.... it worked... The only thing I can think of that I didn't do yesterday is I rebooted the phone this morning. ..

I use EasyTether and it works great for my needs.
You have to enable USB Debugging mode in order for it to work. I had a heck of a time finding it, so here is a quick howto...
From home, press "Apps" menu, press "Settings", press "General" tab, press "About Device", press "Build number" seven consecutive times and you should get messages about having "Developer Mode" being turned on. That's it!
Hit back and you should now see a new "Developer options" selection in the menu. Press "Developer options" and just check mark "USB debugging" if you want to enable it.
Does EasyTether support wi-fi tethering or mobile hotspot?
$.01 via NOTE 3

No, only USB and Bluetooth... I haven't found a non-root solution for WiFi yet.
You can Bluetooth tether it to another android device/tablet...
FWIW, Foxfi is working on my AT&T GN3. As others have said, just hit the home button when the popup appears. Also, I've noticed when connecting with my laptop, full internet isn't available for the first 30 seconds or so, so just give it time...
Subscribed for Samsung Wifi HotSpot Option = )
yep confirmed working with foxfi, the thing is I always need to setup the password everytime I activate the foxfi to work the secured wpa2

Confirmed working with FoxFi without issues with password with everything saving.

Do you need root to use Foxfi for tethering? This is to use the note 3 as a hotspot right?....meaning that I am connecting my other tablets to the note 3 and using its lte data?

Did you guys try any tethering widget?? for AT&T Galaxy S4 wifi tethering doesn't work directly but if you install any tethering app it will work.
Here is the one I've tried from Play store and its free.
'Tethering Widget' by HI-DEVELOP
Install the app and look for 'Tethering (full)' .
once you add this widget click thering widget(make sure you click the Wifi icon not the USB icon'.
This should enable wifi tethering.
Let me know if it works or not..
Now that we have root, can we just freeze tetheringProvsion under titanium backup & use the native app?

Blocked APN

I have a sim provisioned for a tablet that I've always used in phones for a second data-only device. The Note 3 seemed perfect for this. However, when I go in to add the "broadband" apn it will not saved. I can put anything else in apn field and it will save but not broadband. Anyone ever seen anything like this and know any roms that would work?

Any ideas anyone?

You went to mobile networks and tried to set up your APN there?

Mine force closes every time it tries to get location.

Figured it out. Turning off developer options makes it work.
Sent from my SM-N910T3 using XDA-Developers mobile app
No need to turn off Developer Options. Just uncheck Allow Mock Locations in Developer options.
Thanks! I had to enable developer and then disable mock locations. An app I used the other day somehow turned on mock locations even though I didn't have developer options on.

Text message limits

I was just wondering if there was a way to remove the 200 messages limit in the text app?

Go to Messages, then the "more" in the upper right, then "settings", then "more settings", and then unselect "delete old messages". I haven't reached that number yet I don't think, but I presume that that would take care of it for you.
