I don't quite understand how sprint operates...At work there is a 4G signal, but only works in the library and no where else...Sensorly clearly shows the 4G on that particular building and no where else, I hope Sprint 4G LTE isn't going to be that spotty. Ugh.

Hell....their 3G is still spotty

I have updated this to MC3 but I need some people to test. Please test and post your findings. Link is in the OP.
I have changed /com/android/server/connectivity/Tethering.smali like you said, and it works on my i535(I have ported mc3 to my phone)

Wow crawrj you rock! I have been comparing these smali files between the cspire and Sprint S3's, the ET4G mods/roms, for weeks and couldn't figure this out. I've been posting my work and pleas for help in a couple other threads for a while now :) so needless to say I'm really glad you stepped in and got this fixed for us Sprint S3 users.

May I ask - was there anything in particular that caught your eye about these line? Do you just know how to read smali that well you can just understand it like its code? What I'm asking I guess is how you figured it out :)

Anyway I greatly appreciate you doing this, and posting your code changes so it can be easily ported to other ROM's. :good::good:

If you can throw an Odex'd MC3 up I will test (on 3g)

I would tell you but then I would have to send my ninjas after you. Lol I wish I could say how awesome I am but really it was very easy. I was asked by Agat to see if I could get it working. But things came up and I took several months off. When I came back I started doing pretty much the same as you were. Then while working on my S2 I read that one of the leaks had a working hotspot. So I installed the leak and confirmed it worked. After that I downloaded the other 3 versions that came after it. I compared the working leak with the next one in line. I found the section, changed it and tested. Once I had it identified I stepped it through each upgrade until I had the finished product. After that I compared it to the S3 and saw that they were the same, as far as the hotspot changes. So I modified it and had Agat test. And that was it. 4G will be much harder. Especially since I don't have access to 4G.

As for Odexing, the issue is that I don't have the phone. The only chance I get is when I can catch a friend that has it. Have only had one chance and I couldn't get it working. I think it is an issue of doing it while the system is up. I could do that on the S2 but doesn't seem to work on the S3. I tried from recovery but the system folder would not show up. Anybody know how to get the folder to show?

Only thing I can think of is in CWM go to advanced > mounts > mount /system; and also make sure running adb as root/su. I will try to play with trying to access /system in adb when I get a chance.

LOL yeah I thought about that right after I made that post. I don't know why I didn't think of it last time. I have never had to mount from recovery before so I just assumed it was done. Yes I know....

Ok now that that is out of my system, I need help. I am about to give up. I can not get this thing Odexed to save my life. I can Odex things on my S2 in no time. But I can not get it to work on the S3. Any help is appreciated.

OK since I suck at Odexing, I was at least able to verify that the Deodexed version of MC3 is working.
You're doing great even with no device, people could wait on the odex :p On another note I see that 4g tethering still appears not to work, I should be around some 4g tomorrow if you'd like me to take a logcat while trying to tether if that will help you
