Enable tethering

---

This is kinda the same as the Atrix, not sure who posted this but the steps for enableing tethering are pretty much the same.

1. Root
2. Install SQLite Editor
3. Under Settings Storage select Settings.db
4. Select secure
5. Mine is line 147 yours might be different (tether_entitlement_check_state) change value from 1 to 0 (Zero)
6. back out of SQLite till at home screen

tethering should now be working I have had some problems with restarting and having to go back in and change this setting back to 0, still trying to locate the problem but havent really had time to do so.

option 2

NO Root needed!!!


1. Download any cut from market
2. Open and select activity then select hidden menu this will give you all of the hidden menu options or you can just select connectivity test.
3. Open new shortcut and unselect entitlement.

tether will now be working but once again you will have to go back into the settings and reunselect this option if you reboot.

this way does not dissable the renableing of the entitlement still working on that.

Cool, thanks dude i didnt want to have to wait for a rom.

thanks man

Which one would be the best from the market? I did it for my Captivate oh do many months ago but I can't remember which one I used and on my Dell I never needed to do anything.

option 2 is a little easier, specially is you reboot often.

Sqlite only worked once for me. Once I rebooted my phone, it wouldn't work again no matter if I went and changed the field back to 0 and backed out or just pressed home key. It automatically changes back to a 1 when trying to hit usb tethering or hotspot wifi. Then go back and change it to a 0 and it switches it back to a 1 when I try and tether. KInda disapointed I spent the money on this app for this one purpose and now it's past the refund time.

I have been having more luck with option 2 using sqlite does have some problems this way it actually dissables the entitlement through a native app.

Option 2 let me turn on the Mobile AP but I have yet to test it.

I also discovered that if you try to turn on the Mobile AP using an app like Widgetsoid it reboots the phone! I'm hesitant to use widgetsoid for that function now.

What apps

Which apps should I download from marketplace? I'm new to android, haven't done anything rom related since 6.5 windows was barely released

Follow option 2 more reliable from my experience. And no paid apps required.
