And make sure mass clamping is on.

Change the device profile to generic ics and enable mms clamping like the 2 posts say above AND right under mms clamping, also click routing fix. You can also can channels so it doesn't interfere with other devices and change security type and password.

I'm also having the same issues with wifi tether and I'm not sure where I would change the device profile. Any help would be appreciated.

One more question: are you guys using a third party app or the build in Sprint Hotspot option?

"WiFi Tether" is an app. Should be on the market. Works better than HTC hot spot, and you can tether over 4G with it

I just went to device profile which is in the setting of your WiFi tether app. Under device profile set it to nexus CDMA and should give you no problems

Oh man 'whew'. Thanks for posting this... this was likely a show stopper for me, as I work in places with very secure wireless, and my clients don't like rogue devices connecting. I assume 'routing fix' is an option in the specific app?

[HOW TO]How To Disable SmartSync Using Terminal Emulator | APK Available

First off this is very easy and anyone can do it. This is for the people who are running Roms that doesnt have SmartSync disabled
When SmartSync is disabled it will stay disabled after restarts also. So no need to run the commands again after reboots.
Download "Terminal Emulator" from the Play Store and open it
When the app is running enter these commands one after the other
su

Click to collapse
then press enter
pm disable com.android.settings/.framework.activity.powersaver.SmartSyncProvider

then press enter
pm disable com.android.settings/.framework.activity.powersaver.SmartSyncDataLinkTurnOffReceiver
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
then press enter
pm disable com.android.settings/.framework.activity.powersaver.SmartSyncScreenOnOffTimeReceiver
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
this one disables SmartSync in the night time
pm disable com.android.settings/.framework.activity.powersaver.SmartSynServiceReceiver
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
and thats it. your wifi or 3g wont disconnect if your phone goes to sleep anymore.
To re-enable SmartSync simply run the following commands

i found one more that disables smartsync in the night time too
ill add that to the OP
So I have been playing with app creation, I whipped up a really simple app that will do this. If some one wants to test it. If it works I will adjust the interface and activate it in the market.

So is SmarSync at night not a good thing because it prevents receiving data altogether?

Definitely during the day it should be disabled but Doesn't it make sense to have smartsync at night? (at least for those who do not burn the midnight oil)

Just sent you an email but I don`t have 4g so it will be tough for me to get the property and test however if you can help me get the prop and test I can try to add it.
if you do a logcat and filter it to only show "SmartSync" and wait until 4g gets disabled you should see something similar to below:
"framework.activity.powersaver.SmartSyncProvider"
Just send me what you find and I will try to add it.

If you're in public make sure to use a security method and check access control so other people can't jump on your tether. If you enable access control you have to allow the connection either by selecting it in the pull down or from the menu of the tether.

Thank you so much for providing these steps! I have been messing with the app for ages and couldn't find the right settings. No errors were returned in the error log and my Macbook sees it as an actual AP and not a Device. Sending this while tethered!!
Hey im kinda a newb can someone tell me how to do this or where to input these settings?

Is this just the vpn option that is on the phone or is it another program all together. I have unlimitited data on tmobile and i use alot cause i stream alot of hulu plus and youtube. i don't plan to tether all the time however when i have to do it i want to have the option without tmobile blocking me. i have not tried it cause i read the will not allow it.
Not sure what the differences of TrevE Mod wifi vs the original Android Wifi tether (open source):
https://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/
But I am using 'android-wifi-tether' with encryption with T-mobile stock ROM with ROOT using the following settings:
* Device-Profile: Generic ICS/JB (wlan0)
* Setup-Method: Auto
* Enable Wifi-Encryption: Checked
* Wifi-driver reload: Checked
Edit: I'm using custom Bulletproof kernel from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2233665&highlight=menu

Hotspot vpn shield not the one on phone it is an app on the play market that's the one to use and enable it always before u begin WiFi tether app.

Galaxy Note 2 with T-Mobile Tether Working - Settings are...
Got tether working on Galaxy Note 2 (SGH-T889). Here are the settings...
Rooted phone and installed WiFi Tether - TrevE Mod
Device-Profile = Generic ICS/JB (wlan0)
Setup-Method = Netd-Ndc(master)
Send Netd Max Client Cmd = checked
Enable WiFi-Encription = not checked (but should work if checked)
Change SSID = (set to my own personal SSID)
Change Channel = 11 (should work on any channel. Used 11 because it is unused in the area)
WiFi-Driver reload = not checked
WiFi-Driver reload 2 = checked
Best of luck!
I got Wifi Tether to work with no problem on my Tmo One. No need TreveE mod either.

BBM only works on WIFI

I'm having some issues with BBM not sending/receiving text messages on my Data plan unless I toggle a wifi connection first and then turn it off.
Anyone else have this issue?

no it's working perfect with data too. try to delete BBM and then install it again or check that you haved data connection properly.
if it is working with wifi then i think there is no prob in BBM.
