[MOD] [TETHERING] Native Tethering Enable for 1.82.605.6

[pastorbennett]

If all you want to do to your phone after obtaining s-off with SunShine and flashing TWRP is to have native tethering enabled, then this mod is for you. Simply download to your phone storage and flash via TWRP. The only thing this mod does is to flash a copy of default.xml with the modifications required to enable native tethering.

NOTE: This is specifically for the latest firmware, version 1.82.605.6. If you're not on that version, check out this thread to update your firmware.

Does this work for all variants? Sprint? Verizon?

Doubtful, as I'm pretty certain default.xml is carrier specific. It likely would work on other builds, but you'd be risking a soft brick if you flashed this on a phone for a different carrier.

It's quite easy to make your own. First, use a file manager to copy the default.xml file from /system/customize/ACC to the sd card, copy the file to your computer, make the necessary edits to the file, (follow part 1 of this post) and use a tool like muCommander to open the patch that I posted and inject your newly edited default.xml. Make sure once you copy your file over the one included in my patch that you change the permissions to 644.

If that's beyond your skills, post your default.xml and I'll make the patch for you when I have the time.

Great! I can do it, thank you!

Gotcha. Didn't know that.

And hello, ready for the long winter this year? It's coming up real fast. Faster than I would like.

Sounds like it's going to be a very white winter. But I'm cool with it. I'm a bit of an optimist when it comes to winter: it's the season when all the bugs die. BTW, I'm located roughly 25 miles SW of Mankato, literally in the middle of nowhere.
