Sup Guys, so I recently I rooted my phone thinking that I could find a fully working way that would let me get free wifi hotspot from tmobile. I have the 4G Nation Unlimited data plan which is supposed to give me 2.5 GB of Hotspot but it doesn't. So I called and asked tmobile and they said I can't this service cause I have "Grandfather Plan" so I have to upgrade my plan, which I'm not willing to do.

Anyways, does anyone know a hack that would let me bypass the wifi hotspot plan verification thing?


*I want to connect my Ipod touch 5th gen to the wifi

I'm kinda new to this? What is a VPN exactly and I heard that it slows down speed.

Oh and my hotspot doesn't even turn on because it says I don't have the wireless hotspot plan.

You'll need to use the Root method for enabling hotspot or download a custom ROM with native hotspot enabled. And only the free VPNs slow your speed. If you pay for a VPN then its not slowed (usually costs around 3 bucks a month for the VPN) A vpn will be the only way to get the itouch working as i don't think you are able to change the User Agent of the Safari browser on the itouch.

And Google will give you more and faster answers then waiting for a reply on here if you don't know what a VPN or User Agent is :)

A custom ROM would takeout t mobiles hotspot agent out right? If I got a custom ROM do I still need to use a VPN to access the internet?

User agent checking is done on the T-Mobile's servers when they receive the data. Its impossible to stop that without a VPN. So you would still need the VPN to bypass that.

Flash a ROM that has it bypassed, like Fenny's stock kitkat ROM. Tethering works fine for me on it.

    Just download "Wi-Fi tether router" it's $2 in the play store. It's the only working app that does hotspot through data rather than the hotspot plan. Or use a custom rom with a hacked hotspot built in.

    It's a hidden gem I found that will solve a TON of hotspot issues and all you have to do is be rooted.
