Verizon native tether subscription bypass

[DaPoets]

Does it work sometimes? Maybe it's a setting in AutoInput?

Are you using a widget to activate it?

Yep!

 

[DaPoets]

Yep!

Really not sure what is going on with it. Sometimes it flies right through activating the HotSpot, and sometimes it just hangs, w/ even it going so fast sometimes that only the refresh button is pressed and almost at the exact same moment it activates the hotspot w/ it being Too Soon.... It would be good if it had an option for pausing say 0.25 seconds in between each task.

You can add the wait task in between.

Well that fine tuned the issue and I'm 100% effective now! I really appreciate all of your help! I put in a few 250 millisecond pauses.

Awesome! Glad I could help!

bypassing the verizon tether subscription check by installing network signal refresher, refresh signal and immediately turn on hotspot while refreshing. Confirmed working.

I did not come up with this. I have been using this method for a while now and can't remember where I originally got the information to give credit.

You shouldn't have to bypass tethering at all on Verizon, afaik. It should just allow you.
Edit: Nevermind, just realized y'all are on unlimited plans.

Forgive my ignorance, I have unlimited data and this will allow me to use my hotspot to tether without VZW knowing?

And the name of the app is Network Signal Refresher Lite?

Correct on both parts!

I hope this procedure lasts past the next update.

Thank you.

I have seen people saying that the hotspot only works for 15 to 20min then just turns off. Anyone having this issue.

now that we have root, what do we need to change to enable the bypass ? (without using network refresher)

is this method still the way to go? (I haven't rooted yet, just gathering my information for it)

Yep modify your build prop

net.tethering.noprovisioning=true

When was Verizon OKed to block tethering? In 2012 the FCC decided that Verizon can't restrict tether nor can they charge for it, except for some legacy plans.

Yep modify your build prop

net.tethering.noprovisioning=true

But is root needed? I thought you could push build.prop if you unlocked?

On some older devices pushing edited build.prop may have been possible without root
but I'm sure root is required on the Pixel

I have the hotspot on, but any devices I connect to it cannot access the internet.
My Windows machine initially said there was a DNS issue, but after manually setting them to Google, the devices say there is no internet.
Any ideas?
