[GUIDE] HOW TO Enable Wi-Fi Tether on stock Kit Kat 4.4.2

Sqlite Error

I did everything you said, but the values return to normal once the phone is rebooted

I have root, SU, and unlocked bootloader

I checked the script that you made and I ran it on Smanager, it shows that Sqlite3 is not found,

how can I fix this?

provisioning

thanks a lot. however, the net.tethering.provisioning value is always reset to True when I try to use the stock app for tethering or use only the USB tether in the settings menu
is there a way to make this permanent. the prop.builder has already super user granted. it saves yhe value. but then like i said, if i use any of the stock tether programs is reset to True.

Trying to get this to work for MetroPCS

I'm attempting to get this to work on MetroPCS and I've made the change in the build.prop as well as the change in the settings.db file. I'm guessing that My APN settings will be different since I'm aiming to get this working on Metro. When I reboot my build.prop setting change is persisted. So, I know that portion at least worked.

forzaditalia <-- I tried a couple of different build.prop editors and had trouble keeping the change after reboot. You might want to consider trying another build.prop editor. The one I finally got to work is called "PropEditor". I dont know if it's the best, but it worked for me. Just thought I would share that.

radiohead7778580 <-- I tried to run that script you put up in script manager but I get an error. Also, when I reboot the settings.db change has reverted. So, I know that script is having an issue. It appears to not be able to find SQLite. It says system/xbin/sqlite3: not found. Where might this be installed that I can point it to.

Also, is there a specific change to the APN settings that is required? I noticed that in the T-Mobile changes you suggested there is an APN type of DUN in there that my current APN settings do not have. Do I need to add this possibly? I've seen two different sets of APN settings for Metro from other sources online. What set should I be using

Mine are currently set as:
apn carrier="MetroPCS"
mcc="310"
mnc="260"
extraid="6D"
apn="fast.metropcs.com"
user=""
password=""
authtype="0"
server=""
proxy=""
port=""
mmsc="metropcs.mmsmvno.com/mms/wapenc" [NOTE: Had to remove http from the beginning to post since I'm a newb]
mmsproxy=""
mmsport=""
type="default,mms,supl"
preferapp=""

And I've also seen these settings posted:
Name: US – MetroPCS Web
APN: metropcs
Proxy:
Port:
Username:
Password:
Server:
MMSC:
MMS Proxy:
MMS Port:
MMS Protocol: WAP 2.0

Ok, I just noticed the post about the SQLite Installer for Root. That seems to have gotten that script executing properly. Also, that settings.db value is now being persisted after reboot. So, I'm wondering if getting the proper APN settings is all I have left to get this working. Currently, I get forwarded to this page when I connect to the Wifi offers.t-mobile.com/tethering/upsell.do?source=pcweb which tried to sell me on the service addon. I think maybe I will try and give that second set of APN settings a try and see if that helps at all.

4) Making Sure it Stick After Reboot
...
Click on it and select FAV,SU,BOOT and Save

Click to expand...

Click to collapse

Why is FAV necessary? Is it even necessary to keep Script Manager - SManager installed? Does it need to be running in the background?

is this method still working?

Anything easier or newer since this?
