Apparently the Tiger VPNs is not working. TM stopped my hotspot today. I appreciate if you can help me solve this.

Try Hideman. Been working fine for me. Hotspot Shield was working until most recent update that infested my phone with popup ads & other spam... even after I paid for a month... total junk.

I use hotspot shield and it works perfect . If you don't want to see the ads get adaway or something similar .

Here is How You Can Remove The Locked & Hidden APNS & Tethering T-Mobile APN's ..

THIS IS FOR T_MOBILE USERS ONLY!
THIS IS FOR T_MOBILE USERS ONLY!

THIS WILL DELETE ALL APNS!
THIS WILL DELETE ALL APNS!


This Does NOT UN_LOCK The APN'S! - :(
However Does Delete The Hidden APNS - Like The Tethering APN.
Then Adds The New "Locked" APN I Edited! :)


OK ? GOT IT? ( God I Hope So! )
Always a good Idea to make a CWM OR TWRP FULL BACKUP FIRST!

I have a question, I have the Galaxy Note from ATT, I unlocked it and am now on tmobile, I am rying to change everything "att" about this phone to tmobile so it were as if I had got the phone from tmobile...

So I have completed the instructions on Installation 1, and it did not work, could this be because the phone was not from ATT originaly, or does this not matter?

The only way it works is using the chrome plugin, but that is not really a solution, as the only user agents that can be used re the kindle and the 2 android ones, which is not really unlocking he tethering on the phone all hats doing is making the phone think its a mobile browser that is accesing the internet..

So, any suggestions on how to get this to work properly?

Anyone previously from ATT get his to work succesfuly? If so, can you explain what you did?

Other than the steps on installation 1, I have not doen anything else, not even sure if there is anything else on this phone that is ATT related that I need to change to tmobile (radios, etc.) Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

See my post above and try what I did...then let me know...

Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda app-developers app

I did that, and didn't do anything, so when I copied customer.xml to my desktop and viewed it, it was all ATT stuff in it, however, I went to the "Connections" line, and I copy/pasted what I found on this post http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=33499075&postcount=17 (I hope this contained all the correct information). This still didnt do anything.

So I saw on your post about feature.xml, I copied it to my desktop and it was empty, all it contained is:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<!-- It can be added for each operators like below form

<ABC> -> sales code
<sapient>true</sapient> -> feature1
<burton>false</burton> -> feature2
<libtech>true</libtech> -> feature3
.
.
</ABC>

each name of tags are will be environment variable with "ro.csc."
ex) "ro.csc.sapient", "ro.csc.burton", "ro.csc.libtech" <== you could use them at any section.
also, should be added between <feature> and </feature> .
jhwan.kim@hdlnc.com -->

<feature>

</feature>

So it seems it didnt have anything for me to edit.

Is it possible you can upload here the customer.xml and feature.xml files?

Thanks

Did you put the the telephony db ?
I'll post the xml asap

edit:
Did tethering worked when you were on ATT account?
download Tethering Widget from Hi-Develop

let me know what happens when you try to turn on tethering thru the widget?

yes i replaced the telephony.db with yours, tested, and nothing happened.

tethering did work before with att without any hacks.

when I use the widget, it turns on tether on the phone, pc connects, but will not go to any website, unless i use the browser user agent set to an android device which i then get all mobile websites, or no access on certain sites like cpanel for my website.

I should also mention I been using the browser user agent to connect for 5 days now, which I dont like, its the only way I can use the internet, and as of last night my phones internet connection dropped drastically, i used speedtest.net's app and every test comes back with .11 mbps speed, never any higher, I wonder if somehow tmobile has caught on. it is still as of this morning throtlled down to .11mbps.

the only thing i have doe to my phone thus far is Installation #1 from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1962752, I havent added any of these http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1958124 because I dont know which is it that I am suppose to flash.

My goal is to replace anything "att" with everything "tmobile" to get the phone to be just like if I had got it from att.....but now having my phones internet throttled down to .11mbps is really screwing me, I cant work, and I rely on the internet for work.

HELP! :crying:

open fireintent

in package type: com.sec.modem.settings
classname: com.sec.modem.settings.network.NetworkSettings

fireintent and let me know if you see something...
if you do let me know what is your "Network Mode" mine is "HEDGE"

I did the steps and got: Error Unable to start your intent, no matching activity can be found in the system."

    Other Interesting Info ...

    shnn2011 ..
    Many people have reported to me that their tethering no longer works even after killing the tethering manager.
    Many have asked me to look into this, here are my findings..
    It seems that T-Mobile has implemented a new hidden APN in their ROMs. When you activate tethering, your connected devices seem to be routed through a different APN than your phone uses which is where the block is, if you have not paid the tax.The answer:A. For users:Create a new APN name called "Tethering" and copy the information from your T-Mobile APN to it. There is no need to activate this APN. Immediately after doing so you should regain your full connection. Tested on a SGH-T989 (T-Mobile SGS 2) and reported to work.*B. Mostly for ROM authors:Edit the appropriate configuration files and change all APNs (usually "epc.pcweb.com") to "epc.tmobile.com" or any other working APN such as MVNO APNs ("simple" . . .)All test reports submitted to me report this is working and that my theory was accurate.

    Install: Google Chrome
    Install Chrome Extension: Ultimate User Agent Switcher, URL sniffer
    Look For Red Circle - By Settings.
    Click Red Circle and Check: Activate Now!
    Pick User Agent You want .. May Have to try a few.

    Or Add One of these .. Into Ultimate User Agent Switcher

    Modify your customer.xml and feature.xml

    delete this line from feature.xml (this hides the APNs from view)
    <CscFeature_Setting_HideApnList>pcweb.tmobile.co m</CscFeature_Setting_HideApnList>

    change customer.xml as above.

    My testing says at first boot these are hard coded to the system. I'm not able to get settings to stick post boot. Change these before flashing your rom and it should be permanent.

    This changes routing overall, its permanent and even though you get an error in settings works fine if you toggle from the taskbar.

    I am an unlimited 4G subscriber and I got tethering to work on v36.

    I used the APN settings referenced here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=32763688&postcount=1875
    And saved the new APN. When you save the APN, the other necessary info is populated in the newly-created APN. Then, I went back into my new APN and added ",dun" to the end of the APN Type section. I then saved the APN again, selected it, and rebooted. Once the phone booted back up, I started tethering via the toggle and it worked. I'm currently watching Netflix on the Xbox and typing this on my laptop using tethering

    Found a solution to tmobiles stupid user agent sniffer .

    Steps:

    1. Get TrevE Mod tether app
    http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=34037922
    (you will not get a internet connection using any other tether app while using the VPN app)

    2. Get Hotspot Shield VPN
    https://play.google.com/store/apps/...id.vpn&feature=nav_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwyLDNd
    (was mentioned in earlier post but couldn't get it to work)

    3. Start Hotspot Shield VPN and connect

    4. Start TrevE Mod Tether app

    Problems?
    Hotspot Shield does not connect or you get error 1028?

    Get Tun.Ko from market and install it
    Repeat step 3 and 4

    27. Go to Google Play Market and download "Tethering Widget"
    28. Once installed, go to the APPS icon on your phone and select Widgets tab on top and drag the Tethering Widget to a new page
    29. You should now be able to successfully enable native tethering via the Widget
    30. MISSION COMPLETE :)

    *NOTE: DO NOT GO INTO THE ACTUAL T-MOBILE HOTSPOT APPLICATION AS IT WILL OVERWRITE THE APNS AND TETHERING WILL NO LONGER WORK. IF THAT HAPPENS, REPEAT STEPS 23-30.

    Please let me know if I have missed anything. Alot of these steps are self explanitory but I have had issues with this the past day, but I finally got it to work so I wanted to share every step in an ultra-easy fashion :)
