[MOD][VRALG1] Enable Stock Mobile Hotspot (Tethering)

---

I want to say that I did not create this file. I just helped facilitate a speedy delivery of this file because I reached out to a dev friend so he could help us.

This single .apk file is intended for folks that are stock/rooted and want to get by with as many tweaks as possible without flashing a ROM or Theme. I know their are plenty of peeps out there that are just fine with being rooted only... hopefully this will add to your enjoyment of a nearly bone stock rom.

**Before you do anything make a backup of your framework-res.apk file which is located in system/framework**
**If you are on a themed rom, using this framework-res.apk will remove most of your theme and place you back to stock look**
**Rom devs and themers will need to take this framework-res.apk and add it to their themes and roms** (or decompile and create their own)

Confirmed working on Stock OTA VRLG1

How to install:
Option A:

-Download the framework-res.apk to your C:\ drive or whatever folder you like on your PC.

-Mount your system folder on your phone as read/write

-Then push it via adb to your phone. Reboot. Profit


Option B:

If you don't feel comfortable using adb commands you can use root explorer and copy the framework-res.apk over to system\framework\ which will overwrite the existing framework file. This will cause your phone to freeze up immediately. Give it 2 minutes then simultaneously press the volume up + volume down + the power button until it goes into safemode. Once in safemode your phone will start responding. You can then reboot at this point which will automatically boot you out of safe mode. If you can't seem to get it into safe mode just yank the battery. I tested it this way to see if it works and it does. No harm done to the phone. I would make a back up of your framework-res.apk before doing this.

Works fantastic. Thank you very much Das7982, Nitroglycerin33 and Electron73.

Should be noted that this will effect the themes of certain roms as this is a stock framework-res.apks and not a themed one.

NS what's going to happen if you go from one version of the same ROM to another? Are you going to lose the hack?
Edit: Probably no if the hack is going to be part of the new ROM.

You would have to replace the framework-res.apk again. Only thing that will change that is if devs start baking them in. I for one plan to on any updates and or releases change that to allow this.

Haha working on it. Finally found an apktool that doesn't break everything when recompiling. Should have something up soonish hopefully now that I can start messing with this stuff.

Glad you like my rom that much
