I haven't heard from anyone interested in testing so I am just going to put this out there if anyone is willing to try:

The following file should enable native tethering on your G900V running stock firmware(other than root and safestrap) version NI2. Use on custom ROM's or any other firmware version will cause issues on your device. Proceed at your own risk!

Here it is:

File removed after test failure. (To undo the mod flash the G900V_NI2_TetherAddOn - ReverttoStock.zip using the same instructions below).

Instructions:
1. Root your device.
2. Install Safestrap.
3. Place the applicable G900V_NI2_TetherAddOn.zip on ext sdcard.
4. Reboot into Safestrap Recovery and flash the TetherAddOn.zip (Do Not Wipe Prior to Flashing!)
5. Reboot. Done!

Let us know how it works. Thx
