In this method you will be able to activate your tethering hotspot only for a temporary period of time. First hotspot activate will work fine but once you turn it off you will be prompted with the entitlement check when you try to reactivate the hotspot. You will need to repeat the process again in order to bypass the entitlement check. So with that in mind lets begin. :D
(I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR VERIZONS GETTING UPSET FOR YOU USING THIS FREE HOTSPOT!!!!)
In other words try to keep this method under VERIZONS knowledge and you should be fine.


Requirements:
You will need to have done CrashXXL`s root method to have a rooted Droid.
Then once you have a rooted device download SQlite editor which can be purchased on the Gioogle Playstore.
(NOTE: i will not post any download links for SQlite Editor due to XDA rules.)

Step1: Open Rsqlite editor then go to apps then Settings storage with the two tools icon. Now from there go to settings.db . Now go to secure and you`ll see a list of words and ids as well as value columns.
Step2: Change these exact values to the values listed below.
-dun_nat_enabled= enabled
-tether_reverse_nat_enabled= enabled
-entitlement_check= 0
-USB_entitlement_check= 0
-Network_settings_on_boot= 1
-APN_CHECK_STATE= 1

APN check state is the most important.
Step3: Once the values are changed reboot your device and you will be able to use the hotspot once then once you deactivate the hotspot itll check for entitlement check. So for now this is a temperary Hotspot method! ;) Enjoy

Easier method

This is only my first post, and I know that I might be missing something important, but there is an easier method to activate tethering for this device and firmware. While the xt1080 is not supported officially by kingroot, the app will grant temporary and limited root permissions (no /system access). This is enough to get the entitlement bypass app working on the device. I have attached the apks for the entitlement bypass and kingroot apps below. You can download the latest version of Kingroot from the official website. The entitlement bypass app will only run successfully once the device has been temporarily rooted by kingroot. While the root will not last, the bypass of the entitlement check for the tethering hotspot should remain in effect, until the next reboot. You should be able to use the hotspot without any problems until that point, at which time you will have to rerun the Kingroot app. This method has worked for me for months. I am on an xt1080 Droid Maxx running 4.4.4 SU6-7.2. Nothing else is required for this method. Although, the initial root may require a restart/retry or two. I hope this helps.

I've spent a lengthy period of time trying to get tethering to work on a broken screen MAXX, because I refuse to finance a new phone to Verizon. This entitlement app worked perfectly. So I am not able to tether the connection to a prepaid phone and forward my calls to the prepaid device and use my TWC Phone2go.

Thank you
