Anyone get Tethering working yet? - Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers

Normally, I edit the build.prop to bypass the Verizon check, but that stopped working on Android 10. I used a module in Magisk Manager to make it work last time. I really need tethering for the Pixel 5 to be of use for me. Any luck?

Check out VPN Hotspot in xda apps. I've gotten it to work after rooting my P5. I'm also with Verizon. There may even be an option to use it without root.

I've never heard of XDA apps before. Is that on here somewhere? Would I have to sideload that on my Pixel? Sorry, I'm kind of a noob at this stuff.

Ya. You can find it here. I haven't played with it too much, so I can't help you other than pointing you in that direction. I don't tether very often, but it is a feature I feel the need to have.

Oh, OK. I'll have to figure out how to find apps on here. Never done that before. Thanks!

Sure is!:good:

Confirmed working on my P5 with Verizon gUDP
I followed the root process here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-5/how-to/tutorial-unlock-bootloader-root-valid-t4178673.
After finished with Step 13, do the following:
adb shell
su
props
Once the props load, do the following:
Enter 5, Add/edit custom props
Enter n, New custom prop
Enter net.tethering.noprovisioning
Enter true
Enter 2, post-fs-data
Enter y
Enter y to reboot

Great! This is the news I was waiting to hear about!
I've never edited Props this way before. Are those like menu options that you are going through?

Seems like you have it figured out but there is also a magisk plugin called tethering enabler that has worked well for me. I've used it on several versions of the pixel including the 5.

Oh cool! Thank you for that information. I was wondering if it worked as well.

Can anyone guide on how to set TTL right to avoid throttling? My plan has tethering included, I just want to avoid throttle/caps. I am trying to understand how to change TTL properly on the phone itself rather than the devices I'm tethering to. I'm rooted successfully, and I've done this on a router with Merlin, where I created a script that runs on boot. I'm not really clear how to do this on the phone though.

Anybody tested hotspot on Sprint? I'm getting ready to order an unlocked Pixel 5 from Google, wondering what I'll need to do to get it working.

Think you could share the module

This is the one I'm using, but there's a couple other options out there if you search for 'Magisk tether' or 'Magisk hotspot'.

[SCRIPT] GladEnabler v1.05 (All Rooted Phones Supported-Updated 05/12/2011)

Updated: 05/12/2011
GladiAtrix Enabler v1.05 (Sideloading/Tethering APN)
Quick and simple tool to enable sideloading or add the AT&T tethering APN to your device, should you need it. This requires root to work
Also, this is a Windows only script. If anyone wants to port this to Linux or OSX I'd be happy to include links in the main post.
TESTED working on:
Rooted AT&T Firmware 4.1.26
Rooted AT&T Firmware 4.1.52
Rooted AT&T Firmware 4.1.57
Rooted AT&T Firmware 4.1.83
Rooted Bell Firmware 0.37.4
If you test it and it works on a version different than listed here, let me know and I'll update the first post
I do not have anything but an AT&T Atrix to test this on, but the sideloading fix should work if any device. The tethering APN is only for AT&T as it's carrier specific.
Little bit of additional info here:
Enables sideloading for any device
Adds AT&T tethering APN
You need to click "allow" to superuser when prompted.
Installation instructions:
Read the directions.
Read the directions again.
Read the directions a third time. If you do not understand a step, ASK before starting.
Download the script
Extract the files to C:\GladEnable. Do not install anywhere else. Having it inside a folder with a space will cause the script to FAIL.
Enable USB debugging (Settings -> Applications -> Development).
Connect your phone (I recommend setting USB Connection to 'None').
Run GladEnable.bat (If you're using Windows 7, run as admin by holding down control and double-clicking).
Follow the on-screen directions. You will need to tap "Allow" on your phone for each step.
Make sure you allow the superuser request on your phone or it WILL fail.
All done!
​DISCLAIMER
I am not responsible if this bricks your phone or if it doesn't work properly for you. I've done everything I can to ensure smooth execution.
If you have any issues, feel free to PM me, reply to this thread, or come find me on IRC (I'm Fenrir or fenfone on IRC)​
I realize it doesn't say it in the OP, but does this add the reboot option like your original Mod?
Brilliant, Ririal
Thanks for all your amazing work. I plan on running this script tomorrow.
In the event that reboot is not in the power popup, I really like Quickboot from the market. I have a shortcut to reboot the phone under my power widget. Works great.

This is not the GladiAtrix rom. It only does sideloading/tethering APN for users who just want to enable that, or for users who were using v1 of my retain root script and didn't enable it before hand with aRoot.
The ROM (when it's done, I'm having some issues with the installer. The ROM part is technically finished ) has the reboot power menu option.

Awesome Ririal. Will the new version of the ROM root 4.1.57 without needing to go back to 4.1.26 first?
Sent from my Moto Atrix via XDA Premium
Ok, I'm having problems with activating tethering in general. It seems that moto blocked tethering completely. I did v2 of retain root, i used this script, and i also tried it manually and each one of them says that i need a tethering plan. did moto fix this for good?

With the update i am getting an instant connect on the mobile hotspot. I no longer have to tether the APN to get it to stick. I do notice that ocassionally it breifly says im not set up before it actaully connects.

Thanks Ririal,
Many people are realizing that Titanium Backup restores App+Data well, but most system data and settings restores are breaking functionality. A factory reset will restore Blur account and some other settings that are lost but will also make side loading and tethering go away.
Now users we have a way to get those back with out a full SBF.

Bang! You got me! This is exactly what happened to me.
This update totally fixed my sideloading and tethering issues.
BTW, the script failed on me the first time, I'm not sure why. Something about permission denied on ./data/local/tmp/gladenable.sh. But the second time I ran it, everything worked.
Thank you so much Ririal!

Probably just missed the superuser allow request on your phone, that's why you got permission denied.
i have ran this bat file twice, no errors and it is still not working for me. i NEED to tether when i am not at work cause i have no internet at the house. if i can not get this sorted out i am going to revert to RC1 before this OTA (hope i even can do that)
please help me out here!
Win 7 64bit ran as admin
i also have an xp laptop
also have a Win7 32bit
do you need sql-lite3 to run these.... during script it says something about sql-lite3 not found. when i look in APN i don't see a new APN so im thinking thats what im missing

It's possible that Motorola patched the workaround for tethering. All this script does is add the custom APN, which used to work. I haven't looked at other methods for permanently enabling tethering as this method has worked for me in the past.
Manually add APN
Is it possible to add an APN without using the script, like with the Samsung Captivate, I'm asking because I'm planning to use the phone outside the US therefore I'm gonna need an APN not from AT&T...
Thanks in advanced
run the batch file without errors but i still can't get the tethering to work. My phone is sim unlocked and on 4.1.57 rooted...
Hi,
Ran the script and allowed the Superuser prompt, all finished without error --- yet I still don't have the sideloading option in Applications->Development
And when I try to sideload an app, keep getting an error message that it isn't allowed for my safety ..
What am I missing here? Am on 1.5.7 Gladiatrix, root is working fine.
Thanks for any help!

Great work on all your programs and want to say THANKS for all your work with the atrix. one thing I would like to know. is there an app to install the clock and weather app as the htc phones have on them?
Problems...
I'm having an issue while running the command. I'm a recent iPhone user so this is all new to me. First I'd like to make sure this is all I need to do in order to install 3rd party apps (a.k.a. apps I obtain online) I don't need to do a full-blown root, do I?
While the command is running, it first asks me, "Do you want to install sideloading?" I input 'y' and hit Enter. That results in: " /system/bin/su: not found " Does this mean I need to root first?
Maybe one or more files are not getting extracted, but I don't see anything else in the download. My download contains 5 files.
1. GladEnable.bat
2. gladenable.sh
3. abd.exe
4. AdbWinApi.dll
5. AdbWinUsbApi.dll
Let me know if there's anything else you need that would help solve the problem.

Not sure, never had the sideloading not work for me. This doesn't add the checkbox in the application settings menu (what reason do you really need to uncheck it?), it just enables it. Make sure the script is completing successfully with no errors.

[Q] XT 1060 Native Tether on 4.4.4 (Unlocked/Rooted)

Ive only found a couple of topics on this, one was for dev/unlocked tether on 4.4 and the other was for locked/unrooted thether on 4.4.4. so both just missing what i need.
what is the method, or is there one, for using the native tether on an unlocked Verizon Moto X?

If you are unlocked and rooted the easiest way is to install Xposed framework and Moto Tether module.
no i dont want to do that. easy isnt my primary concern. my primary concern is cleanliness so i would perfer a real mod.
i just read this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/themes-apps/app-hotspot-entitlement-bypass-v1-1-5-9-t2705152
if im reading it correctly i can simply add "net.tethering.noprovisioning=true" to the build prop but im not yet sure if i read it right
FWIW, on the XT1049 (4.4.2) I tried it out by modifying these two properties in /system/build.prop under # ADDITIONAL_BUILD_PROPERTIES:
ro.mot.tether_dun_required=0
ro.tether.denied=false
...and then I added the line:
net.tethering.noprovisioning=true
This seemed to work in a quick test loading a webpage, but I haven't used it beyond that.

Correct. The Tool in that thread works for the XT1060 which is bootloader unlocked and rooted.
The other way is to use the wifi_tether_v3_4-experimental1.apk from https://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/
change device profile to galaxy nexus (cdma/lte)
check box: wifi-driver reload
check box: enabled routing fix
If you have troubles, its also suggested to...
check box: wifi-driver reload 2
I use the wifi-tether APK on my Dev Edtion XT1060 for Verizon (unlocked and rooted, running 4.4.4, it worked on 4.4.2 and 4.4 also)

I think the best method is to use Xposed Installer and the X Tether (Moto Tether) module. This allows you to use the stock Mobile Hotspot app without having to modify/replace it. As easy as this is to setup (install Xposed Installer, install the module, reboot and done) it's just as easy to revert it when the next update comes out (just disable the module and Xposed Installer).
Bonus....you now have Xposed Installer so you can grab other modules if you like (ie...Root Cloak, Gravitybox, etc..).

I agree and it is a snap to uninstall it. But for some reason, the OP doesn't want to do that - I am guessing it is a work phone maybe and he wants it to be less obvious?

Xposed does make changes to system, and some modules can caused reduced battery life.
Not everyone wants that.
Some just want to be simply stock, rooted and have the ability to tether. Xposed and its modules is extra stuff installed.
@TheWhiteChallenger
There are two "easy" and "light weight" options already posted in this thread. The app in the other thread that modifies the build.prop on the fly, and the wifi tether for root apk.
Or you can install Xposed and the Tether Module like the other suggested.

Xposed itself is a very small modification and doing the Tether module is near the same as using the modified stock tether app. I've tried both methods and the Xposed method is cleaner and much simpler. Add in the bonus of an extremely simple method to revert without the hassle of removing/renaming/restoring the stock tether app and it's near perfect.
With that done....you can be done. The added bonus is you do have the option of adding in additional modules if you like.

we'll have to agree to disagree here.
WiFi tether apk I use is a stand alone app, doesn't need to be undone to update, only runs when i launch it. etc. The app from the other thread just changes/updates the build.prop. It does nothing else. Nothing needs to be undone to update. No extra apps running, etc.
There are many options because one-size doesn't fit all.

first, can we plz stop the exposed debate be for it goes any further, those kind of answers are exactly the answers this thread was started to avoid. i appreciate the attempt to help but ur just ignoring the intent of the original question and further complicating the issue.
second,i found the solution: use build prop editor (or whatever u want to use) to add net.tethering.noprovisioning=true , delete VzwEntitlementService.apk and its .odex, done

I wouldn't delete them, just rename them. If you want to take a future OTA, you'll need to put them back.

Hello, I also have an unlocked (via sunshine) verizon moto x, currently running 4.4.2 and rooted with towelpie because I have never installed a custom rom and don't want to muck anything up. But if it's not too hard to install a custom rom I may try. Is this what you have done?
All I have done is ran sunshine and unlocked the bootloader, it's still on 4.4.2 and rooted with towelpie. Do I have write since I unlocked the boot or do I have to install a twrp to gain write? I am familiar with sqlite editer https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.speedsoftware.sqleditor&hl=en
is this something like what you used to write the command to tether?
Thank you

a text editor or notepad type app can be used to edit build.prop. SQLite or such wont work.
In theory, using Sunshine to gain unlocked bootloader should grant write protection disable, however I'm not familure enough with it to be sure. This post -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=45604505&postcount=33 should still work to allow you to check write protection status.
If you can undo TowelPieRoot (usually just rebooting, or at worst flashing system.img using mfastboot will work), you can easily flash TWRP and get a proper root and write protection disabled.
A custom rom is not needed to tether.
If you have root, and write protection disabled, two EASY ways to tether on Verizon are in Post #5 above...

Not familiar with towelpie, but if there is a way to undo the root, possibly by going to supersu and doing a full unroot, then you can regain root (with proper r/w to system) by flashing a custom recovery like CWM or TWRP and flashing the supersu.zip ( http://download.chainfire.eu/396/SuperSU/ )

Magisk- has anyone tried it?

As the title says, I'm trying to see if magisk will work, and wanted input before I flash it.

It works, I currently use it for root, ViPER, and Xposed.
I actually went ahead and installed it before you replied, and I've been looking for something like it for ages. It's really well done.
Thanks for the heads up. I just converted from SuperSU to Magisk with phh SuperUser with no problems. Works great.
yes, it's work, [kingroot]
Hi, can you post the link of the guide that you used to install and get the Magisk working??? I need a newbie friendly guide to get that poke go working -.-

The first part, you mean just unroot part?
Sent from my R1 HD using Tapatalk
Yes, installed so I could keep adblock and still play Pokemon Go with my kids. Used SuperSU full unroot and then followed the guides here on XDA for how to install it - works great
Installed following the android police tutorial. Root and xposed working. However, when I switch "Root Toggle" in Magisk Manager to the off position, it switches itself back to the on position. Anyone else getting this?
Edit:
This works, per u/Howie_The_Lord on reddit:

It seems that this happens, when you ROM is preeroted, you need to delete the system/xbin/su with TWRP and let Magisk mount its own there.

Blackberry Work App and Magisk

I've seen a few threads on the Blackberry Work app, but they all seemed have become idle at the end of 2017. Has anyone been able to run new versions of Blacberry Work with the new versions of Magisk?
I'm running an unrooted custom ROM, but the way new versions of the ROM are compiled (using Android Clang) are triggering the checker. Was hoping I could flash Magisk to hide root and custom rom detection from the app.
It depends on what the app is detecting, of course, but take a look under "Hiding root from apps" in the troubleshooting guide. The rest of the post might have some useful tips as well.
I ended up installing Magisk and hiding from the app. It works really well, so we can go ahead and close this thread. Thanks for the follow up.

Is BB Work still working for you with Magisk? Our company moved to BB Good (now Work) years ago. I stopped rooting back then since it was too much of a hassle to figure out and I need to have my work email. If this works, the only thing holding me back would be getting official updates from OnePlus. I have the 5T.

Yes I can confirm that magisk root does work with BB Work. You have to use the "hide" function in the Magisk Manager and select BB work.
FYI
I am using a stock rom with root.
Tip: don't use xposed framework if you want a working BB work app.
I flashed Magisk in my redmi note 3 kate and installed the magisk manager apk app, everything is working fine, but my question is: Should I install phhSuperUse, rather than this variant has SU because it was built to be installed with magisk ?
Excuse me, I'm not very familiar with the subject and I've been reading about this and I'm a little confused
---------- Post added at 10:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:20 PM ----------
What is the difference when using the magisk modules?
always use xposed framework plus S.U. But since I can no longer download some apps in play store I have resorted to install magisk on my device.
Hello,
Is it still working ?
It work with Good for Enterprise , but i am not able to install UEM Client and BB Work ?
UEM Client seems fine and show device as unrooted but then setting up Blackberrry Dynamics failed due to that , any idea ?
Regards,

As of yesterday, blackberry is detecting my root for some reason. Nothing has changed so my guess is that it has something to do with my company's policy changing? At this point I'm very confused

I am in the same boat. I can no longer get Magisk 18.0 and BB Work (or any of the BB enterprise apps) to function. I immediately get the "jailbroken" message. I have no idea what changed. :crying:
I am going to try 18.1 and will report if things change.

Magisk 18.1, Manager 7.0, and following this guide is what works:
https://www.didgeridoohan.com/magisk/MagiskHide
Make sure the "Basics" are taken care of, manually.
Hide Magisk Manager package under settings, MagiskHide "Work" only now (no "Work Profile" choice present in the new version). I removed all root-requiring apps. The combo here worked. I may go one by one to see if any of those apps made a difference. Regardless, it works following those instructions. Good luck. :good:

Magisk 19.0 and the new 7.1.1 Manager combination seem to work with all BB apps. Maybe it's just me, but the Work Profile option returned in Hide.
Are there any dependencies for BB apps we need to also hide from Magisk?

Work and Work profile setup are hidden. Work profile setup is definitely there again. I use Access, Tasks, and Connect too. I have them all hidden even though that may be overkill. I hide Magisk Manager using the built in package option too. I also followed the guide to ensure that all settings like debug, etc. were off. Gold. I excluded the BB apps from auto-updating. I don't plan to upgrade them unless the back-end requires it at some point.

Thanks, can you please tell me what exactly do you mean by "work profile" and "work profile setup". The app I see is i dont see a work profile app in the play store either. Can you also please send a screenshot of the BB apps that you have hidden in Magisk? This is the first time I'm using BB on my phone so pardon my noobness

magisk fortnite thread

Hello everyone. I have created this thread (hopefully in the right place) to start a discussion on methods/developing methods to get fortnite to work on a rooted device, with magisk installed. Im currently running Dr. Ketan's rom (android pie) on a samsung galaxy note 9 and for obvious reasons (the fortnite galaxy skin) would like to play a few games and have it work without any hiccups. Im not looking to hack the game or any nonsense like that, so if anyone has a currently functioning method that doesnt require me to reflash stock firmware (as i dont have a pc and had to use a friends to unlock bootloader and such) and play on the unrooted device then re-root and install custom rom

Uhh. Its already working. Atleast for me. You just need to hide magisk manager , hide Fortnite app and installer on magisk hide tab, disable usb debugging, and make sure there isn't magisk named folder or files inside your internal storage. That should do it. I'm on the note 8 and it works just fine

Yes but developer options is still on, does that make a difference? Also, I have not tried with magisk core mode off and root disabled, so if you are doing that then that may also be my issue

Working still Season 9 Magisk 19.1? Not I
Anybody still using this method? I get all the way to the drop then get kicked out "can't sync user profile"
Magisk is hidden in a random folder, installer and game both hidden. Tried with Developer settings off and also with them on. Rooted.
Even Google Pay works so I'm head scratching here if there is a system processes that is now needing hidden or what to play the newest Beta. All help appreciated.
I have the same problem. Google pay is working but fortnite not
I'm on a rooted OnePlus 7 Pro and mine just stopped working yesterday. Was fine for about an hour after the Star Wars event then logged on around 10pm and I get kicked out as soon as I exited the bus. Keeps happening over and over again. No other software changes so I'm guessing there needs to be some update to Magisk to get it working again.

Stock OnePlus 7 pro with magisk and TWRP. Epic launcher and Fortnite both hidden in magisk hide. USB debugging turned off. No modules installed. Just using it for root. Worked fine until last night. Gpay and all other safety net apps work fine. It's just Fortnite. Logged in on a friend's Xbox and a really laggy ipad and could play on both so it's not my account - it's definitely the rooted phone and magisk no longer hides itself from Fortnite.
I'm really irritated with the whole thing because I was so close to finishing the season pass and now I can't play at all.
Here's another fix. These last few updates they have added more things to the blacklist. So remember that they basically scans the internal sdcard etc for MagiskManager folder right? Well now they scan TWRP folder too!! So try renaming it to something else without TWRP in it. And see if it works!. Just tried mine and still working just fine!

Thanks for posting that. I renamed the folder and now it works again.
Now I need to figure out if I can leave it that way or if I need to keep switching the folder name back and forth to be able to use TWRP correctly.

I have pretty much the same setup as you. Do you happen to get lag here and there? During game play? I was able to get mine working again by renaming the folder for trwp as suggested.

With Tasker or Automate, you can set a trigger to automatically rename folder on start of Fortnite and rename back, after the game is closed.
