I can't get WiFi Tether Router working on my Essential PH-1. The SSID won't show up on my other devices. I have contacted the dev but he has yet to reply. I'm running Android 9 and have Magisk installed. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Whatever you are trying to do... It's supported by stock already...

Both WiFi hotspot and WiFi repeater work on stock...

I understand that but my carrier which is AT&T doesn't let me use the build in hotspot/tethering features so I'm relying on this app but as I said earlier I can't get the SSID to show on my other devices. Wifi Tether Router was made by Fabio Grasso.

Try using this: https://lanrat.com/tethr/ I used this on my PH-1 (using Sprint) before they gave me free tethering as part of my phone plan.

No I don't think that will work,I can turn on the hotspot build in the phone but that's not allowed by my carrier so they'll cut me off. The app by Fabio allows me to use my phone data rather than using hotspot data. So my carrier won't be able to detect that I'm using my phone as a hotspot. Thank you tho

I use WiFi Tether Router on my old Galaxy Light for hotspot duty. After work I'll see if I can install it on the PH-1 and check it out. The Nougat ROM I'm on now doesn't have Play Store so as long as it doesn't do license checking I should be okay.


Essential PH-1, /e/ 0.5-n ROM, microG (NoGapps), XDA Legacy

Alright I appreciate I've used this app on my old S6 so I know it works it's just I can't get it to broadcast the SSID to other devices. Normally I'd go to the dev but he hasn't replied at all.
