sqlite3 isn't present on the One X, at least not on mine running RUU 1.82.
I agree, that solution would be cleaner if it was.

Tried to install a few times, but no go ...
I never even knew that tethering wasn't possible with the AT&T ROM. When my unit had the original Rogers ROM, tethering was incredibly simple.
I tried installing your work-around a few times, but I can't get either Wifi tethering to work, nor USB tethering.
This is a very important feature for me, so I hope it's solved soon.
Any ideas?

Here's what you can try:
1. flash the the stock rogers rom
2. copy this file to your sdcard using a root capable file explorer: /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/telephony.db
3. flash at&t rom of choice
4. copy that file from your sdcard back to the original location
5. profit
Edit: even easier would be to get that file from someone already on the rogers rom to save you the hassle of reflashing

Hey Buddy, we need to know how it's not working? Are you getting an error w/ the script? An error when enabling it? What's goin' on?
Also, are you on 4G up there?

Ok I'm on 1.85 cleanrom de 2.0. I did the telephony.db fix. When I try to use the Wifi Hotspot app it just says processing, it never actually starts. When I use the wifi tether app it starts but the download speed is pretty much 0.0 kbps. Its like there is no data at all.
EDIT: Nevermind, I did a restore of the WiFi hotspot app from Tibu. fixed the problem.

If someone can send me their telephony.db file ...
I prefer your Edit. If someone can send me their Rogers telephony.db file, I would appreciate it greatly.

When I select USB tethering, a small window opens saying "processing ...", and then I get a new, small window with the following message:
USB tethering
Unable to turn on USB tethering. Please try again or contact customer service.
At the bottom of this window are two selections: Cancel and Settings
If I then go into Settings>Portable hotspot & tethering, I am unable to make any changes that will resolve the issue.
If I try to enable Portable Wi-Fi hotspot, I get the "processing" window again, and then a new, small window with the following message:
Mobile Hotspot
There is a temporary network problem that prevents the enablement of the Mobile Hotspot function. Please try later.
Again, at the bottom are two selections: Cancel and Settings
These messages have been consistent since yesterday, when I first tried to enable both methods.

If you mean LTE ...
If 4G = LTE, then I'm on 4G. Actually, now that I'm using CleanROM, I don't think I really have a choice. When my unit had its original Rogers ROM, there was the option to choose connection methods, but I don't think I have that option now.

If you dial #*#*4636*#*# into the dialer (if that doesn't work, flip the * and #) you will be brought to some hidden settings, hit phone information and in the drop box near the bottom, put wcdma preferred to turn off lte radio. You can do this way on any android phone.

If you guys could enlighten me.
I've run the tool but it still doesn't allow me to tether.
The message I get "Temporary network problem that prevents the enablement of the mobile hotspot function".

Uuh... it probably doesn't. I believe this just makes it a bit simpler to actually enable tethering. They can still probably just as easily figure out whether you're tethering or not.
exactly.
i got a "cut it the f*ck out" notice from AT&T once. haven't done it since. i have it, it's available in a pinch, but I'm not paying those assholes another $20 to use the data that I'm already paying for.
I pay for 2gb and never hit 2gb. i pay for another 2gb for my wife, and she uses 1/10th of that. so every month, those douchecanoes are getting $50/month for 4gb data, and I'm using less than half of that. god forbid I want to tether my ipad to my phone and use the data that I have already paid for.

Yea... it doesn't really make sense to me. But i can tell you one thing. If there comes a time where they force me out of my grandfathered unlimited data plan, I'm going to demand that whatever they offer to bump me to will also allow tethering, and not some crappy 300MB/mo. plan, either. It IS ridiculous that you're paying for data that you can't use. I can KINDA understand with those who still have the unlimited plan, but for those paying for a limited monthly bandwidth, it makes zero sense. If anything, allowing tethering will increase the chances of that customer coming up to and breaching their bandwidth limit, resulting in more money for them anyway.

I tether when my local isp decided to break or run scheduled maintenance without telling anyone about it. I have been doing it this way since a good while before android was bought by Google. I guess I'm just lucky but I have never gotten a message about it. I'm pretty careful with it the last few years.

t0mmy tether for HTC One X
INFO
This tool will allow you to use the stock WIFI Hotspot app on the AT&T stock rom without a tether plan. This should also work on any rom that doesn't have this fix already applied.
New Linux/Mac version courtesy of Paul, XDA user vbrtrmn.
HOW TO USE
- Make sure phone is plugged in to usb
- Download file
- Unzip to your computer
- Run tether.bat
- Follow instructions on screen
NOTES
- Windows users: download the .zip attachment, Linux/Mac: download the .sh.gz
- Your phone must be rooted and you must have the android sdk installed to use this!
Edit 1
Added the adb binaries for users getting 'adb is not recognized as a command' error
Edit 2
Added Linux/Mac version, thanks Paul
2you can do this much cleaner by just running a sqlite command to set all the values instead of pushing a different db in.
for rom devs, you can change this in the framework where the apn is stored, that way it gets put into the database this way.2
what? sqlite is built into android, how do think it uses that sqlite file? lol
you can run an adb shell command to do the same thing.
just throwing up other options for the op to check out..2
