On MJ7 all I had to do is freeze the Knox apps in Titanium Backup and it worked. Any reason why I should un-freeze the Knox apps?Not sure Im not on MJ7 to check. But im going to add the below text to the OP soon, its the method I told N3 users to use and it has resulted in far less errors than my script.
Download the framework-res.apk in the OP (the one that says for developers) then copy it to /system first then change its permissions to rw-r--r-- (chmod 644) and then MOVE it to /system/framework and overwrite framework-res.apk
Simply copy and pasting will cause you to boot loop so instead move it to /system first and change the permissions then and only then move it to /system/framework/ and overwrite the original

Surge, you're smart. Thanks for making this happen!
I'm still on MJ7 and this mod works very well. Do I need to undo the mod before upgrading to mk2 or ML1?

I really need to tether but after reading all the posts in this thread its a no-go for me since my S4 is not rooted. And from what I read elsewhere, no one has been able to root MJ7, correct?
Someone said FoxFI does work but no one else confirmed. Was hoping someone else would do that (or suggest another way to tether) until there is a way to root MJ7. Any comments would be appreciated as well as the best forum to watch the discussion on rooting MJ7...

I'd use the method in this thread. Stuff like foxfi, pdanet, jbwifitether, etc (whatever the current working one is) might not be any worse on battery life, but coming from an iphone long ago the jailbreak wifi tether app hacks were always worse on battery life. Stock tethering seems like the OEM put *some* effort into optimizing battery performance. Any way saferoot should do the trick
Went to the link you provided and rooted my phone no problem. Will start looking for a good tether program now that works with a rooted 4.3.
Thanks.

Please let us know if Foxfi works.... from what I have heard it should.

Yes, it did work, however it was quirky. Sometimes my laptop will not connect and I have to turn it off and on. And then there is a time limit unless you buy the full version. That is why I pursued the root option. But then when I went to use WIFI Tether for Rooted phones, it didn't work. Crap...
Back to the play store to find one for 4.3 rooted S4s...
Cheers.

Wait so are you both saying my solution didnt work for you guys? If not mind telling me what didnt work so I can try to see what the problem was? I havent had anyone complain of any issues for awhile now (most posts have been people confirming its working)

Hi Bizmaniz,
Can you elaborate on this a bit for us n00bs? I've successfully used Towelroot and installed Supersu. How do I install busybox? (safely) and which safestrap version did you install? Is there a link to the terminal command?
Thanks!!
what's chmod 644?? I've been around a while but I never heard that before?
