I downloaded your settings , and the download is a zip file, do I need to flash this to get the settings working?

Also, what do you recommend, the monthly service for $6.95, or the yearly service for $39.95?

The file I attached to the post is an .apk. Just open it with a file browser app, and install it. As for the service. I would recommend trying out the one month to see how you like it, and if you like what they provide, sign up for a year, as the year option is less than $4/mo

I downloaded your apk file and installed it, git vpn running, changed SSIS , enabled encryption and changed the security phrase, and clicked on start tether, I got a msg that says wifi tether started, I also got a message saying setting ad-hock failed. Now wifi tether is running but I can not see my SSID on the list on ny iPad

Make sure you are applying the settings exactly as are stated in the op. I believe you did not select the proper setup method, if you're getting the ad hoc message

I use VPN 1 Click and always connect to Canada, best upload/download bandwidth for me while on tmobile and it's a cheap one time fee

Guys, I am lost. I need your help. VPN is running and connected, WIFI tether is running and shows some numbers in D/L and U/L, but I cannot see my SSID on any device, my labtop, my ipad, my iphone, ....
All what I did is change device profile to Galaxy S3, enable encryption, chsnged the 128bit security phrase, and changed the SSID

You also need to change Setup-Method, MSS clamping, and routing fix

MSS clamping and routing fix are enabled by default, do I need to disable both?

I'm having issues with VPN not connecting. I posted in the Wicked Thread to see if there was much help there but no one had the same issue. I can't get any vpn to connect. When I tether everything connects but no internet access...Any insight?

ua2 · Jun 1, 2013

I may be missing something obvious, but I cannot get tethering to work. All the settings appear to be correct (according to the instructions). Hotspot Shield VPN is running and protecting. Tethering starts saying "Tethering started with errors ..." and I do not see new SSID from my laptop. (t-mobile S4 rooted with CF-Auto-Root on "pay by the day" plan)

Works fine for me.

any verizon s4 rooted folks have this method working?

elvisamy · Jun 4, 2013

Open tether mod, press menu, settings
Configure the options mentioned in original post
Start tethering

I'm coming from Verizon, so excuse my ignorance, but does the avoidance of sniffing on T-Mobile require all this VPN'ness?

On Verizon, I used to just use the tethering widget from the Play Store and done.

kiloas · Jun 4, 2013

Just wanted to say this worked great for me! Thanks for the quick precise walkthrough and attaching the needed apk!

Hi, did you get Treve mods wifi tether to work for your verizon galaxy s4?

So I did some research...if you are lucky and grandfathered into verizons unlimited plan then you must pay for tether/hotspot. so it would make sense for us to use vpn to cover our behind. I dont think they are targeting but they can.

Hey everytime I turn on the hotspot shield it turns back off buy its self.Do you have any idea what the problem is. Thanks, sir.
