[Q] lapdock, rooted AT&T stock 2.3 but not in US - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've got a stock AT&T Atrix (2.3 OTA, but rooted) but I"m not in the US so buying a tethering plan is not an option. I'm using wireless tether for root users, works fine.
If I buy a lapdock can I get 3G via the app or do I have to apply the sqlite mod?
Cheers

[Q] ATT Atrix in Singapore

Alright, I'm doing some travel in a while (going to Singapore, specifically). Last time I was there I took my unlocked Fuze and got a data-only StarHub MaxMobile Prepaid SIM, which worked fantastically.
I want to do the same thing with my (soon to be unlocked) ATT Atrix. Here's my question:
Does anyone know if Webtop and/or tethering work using an ATT Atrix on other carriers?
Thanks in advance.
If you have a tethering app and a correct apn, no reason it will not work.

If I did the entitlement check mod would I even need an app or could I use the built-in tethering? I guess I'll just find out when I get there?
are u on GB or froyo? I know that the froyo does not allow tethering. GB works fine.

Wifi Tether help

I have a Galaxy S3, Model SPH-L710. I have it rooted, running stock firmware, on 4.1.1.
I am trying to find a wifi tethering app that works, but ones that use to work for my HTC evo and my motorola atrix (work phone) are not working with my S3. I have read that the S3 handles wifi tethering on Sprint, but I was just wondering if anyone knows of an app that works? I dont want to run a custom ROM, I would prefer to stick with Stock.

[Q] tethering on unlocked optimus g ??

Hello all,
I will be soon getting this at&t optimus g and I have data plan which allows tethering.
I will be unlocking this phone for using it on my airtel sim in india.
Last I had att phone,it was giving me errors to enable tethering and I am not sure if att would allow tethering on unlocked phone.
I did google but did not see any options to enable tethering.
what are my options to enable tether and remove all the bloat of at&t??
As I see,
1) Flash the international or canadian ROM of stock variety and use tether.
2) any other option
I want to stay stock jelly bean.
pls help.
thanks.

did that last at&t phone give you trouble with tethering on a non-at&t network? If that is true, then I guess it is the case that the phone requires authentication from the network before it will enable tethering. interesting. I know that with previous phones I had to flip a bit (enable -> disable) for some entry in a system SQLite DB so that the phone would stop trying to authenticate my tethering. I was rooted, and using wifi-tether, but it wouldn't work unless I turned that thing off.
On *this* phone, you always have the option of using wifi-tether and then you don't have to mess with the tethering authentication at all. All I did was root, download wifi-tether and set the profile to SGSIII. Things may have changed with jellybean, though.
Last phone were two actually.
First was motorola atrix 4g and then lumia 900.
Both had this issue.
Now I want to stay as stock rom as possible as I don't want to fiddle too much and waste efforts and all.
I was thinking,
Some carriers allow tethering by default.
What will happen if I root,bootloader unlock the device and flash different carrier firmware like say Canadian firm ware ?
Can it work out?
Making this e970 convert to say canadian or international ?
Can we debrand this device,we don't have any lte networks which are cellphones compatible.
So wont mind giving up on lte.
Thanks for reply.

Working for LGOG too...
I'm stock, rooted, and unlocked. I use the tethering feature with no problems all the time. It authenticates just fine.

[Q] tethering/mobile hotspot

My wife recently purchased the Lg Optimus L9 and wants to be able to tether it to her ipad. Is this possible for this phone. We have T-mo and unlimited data plan. It's saying "our plan doesn't support tethering to another device" but previously she was using a blackberry and my old G2 and it worked fine. The phone isn't rooted and I'm not even sure she would want me to root it but she probably would if this was the only way. Thanks in advance for any info/help.

What model of L9? You can try first update to jellybean (use ROM not from t-mobile). Cause I have V20D Baltics for P760 and tethering works fine with my laptop without root (but I don't know about ipad cause I don't have one).
EDIT: But it more sounds as your data plan doesn't support tethering. I'm not really sure how it works in t-mobile but tethering is additionally paid option. Maybe you used your limit for tethering? Cause as I see unlimited data plan has limited tethering e.g. http://www.androidcentral.com/t-mobile-unlimited-plans-may-get-tethering-bundled-starting-wednesday
2 options:
1.) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2201062
This requires root and works.
2.) Try "FoxFi" & "FoxFi AddOn" from the Play Store.
I could not get these to work with Jelly Bean but you may have better luck.

[Q] Tethering with T-Mobile Stock Rom?

Hey guys. I'm in Canada now but I'm coming to the USA soon. I put the T-Mobile Stock roms on my Samsung Galaxy SII in preparation for the trip. Everything is working fine and I'm looking forward to using WiFi Calling when I get to the USA.
Meanwhile I'm up in Canada and I have service with Koodo.
When I put the T-Mobile roms on my phone I suddenly lost my Koodo WiFi tethering. Grrrr! Something in the T-Mobile ROMS disables all WiFi tethering.
Anyway just wondering... is there a work-around for this issue? I got it working with USB tethering and PDANet (which I bought a million years ago). But I miss my true WiFi tethering - especially since it's included in my Koodo plan!
Any suggestions?
