I just use Google's Photos app (rainbow colored pinwheel icon) instead, but it is an annoying work around.
I just use Google's Photos app (rainbow colored pinwheel icon) instead, but it is an annoying work around.
Out of curiosity, would we be able to update the next OTA, or do we have to flash the next update? The reason I'm asking is because out of nowhere, I lost root access. I successfully rooted, and installed TWRP, and was using SuperSU. I had even used Titanium Backup at one point. When I went to install this 4.4.2 hotspot mod, I noticed that my device was no longer rooted. I could still access TWRP by entering into recovery to flash this mod, and my bootloader is still unlocked and shows "tampered". Any idea what might have caused me to lose root access? I did not update anything OTA.
Also, do you know a quick fix to get root back?

try this,
flash in recovery and then wipe cache and dalvic. don't know if it will work on stock rom, if it's rooted it should work1
So, in case anyone else has this issue, this is what I did to recover:
1) I had to wait for a notification to pop up that I had app updates waiting in the play store, then tapped on it to get into the store.
2) I downloaded another launcher--randomly chose Go Launcher. Installed this and had access to my apps again.
3) I tested the hot spot and it worked great. Must have been the changes made by the zip file you posted.
4) Like I said, the script had changed my Sense version back to 5.5, so I downloaded the HTC Blinkfeed launcher (Sense 6) from this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2696399 and ran it from TWRP
5) I now had my original launcher back, settings said Sense 6.0, but I had lost the ability to hot spot.
6) So, I reran your zip file, lost my HTC launcher, Sense again said 5.5, but using Go Launcher I had hot spotting back.
I'm keeping it this way for now, as I need hot spotting more that I want my HTC Launcher. Hope this is helpful to others. And I hope whomever wrote the script for unlocking the hotspot will eventually make it compatible with Sense 6 on stock/rooted phone.1
