Just wondering if FoxFi is working for you unlimited users, like myself and my g/f, since I have no doubt it will be a VERY long time, if at all root is achieved, especially with the news about root tripping knox and bricking the phone.
I can use foxfi the same way as I did with the note 4. Will still require you to have a passworded lock screen and install a certificate.
Okay and thank you

Hmm, not working for me...? It let me use fingerprint for security. Could this be why?

Well crud! I hope it's "operator error" and I'm just stupid! Lol
Did you guys get the app from the play store, of a different version. And could you possibly tell me exactly what steps you took
.
If not, I understand, but this is the last thing I need on my phone (other than root).

All I did was download from the play store and let it create the certificate to set up a VPN or something like that.

Yes I'm on vzw. Set up a passworded lock screen and let the application install a certificate. You must use the foxfi app to actually launch the WiFi tethering.
Also working fine for us. My husband has a Edge+ and I'm Note 5.
I downloaded TDM and it keeps it unlocked at home & in the car.
Also, just followed the steps given by the app. Not much to do, just agree to install VPN, once - first time, then it asks to open stock Hotspot app and turn it on.

It works with no workaround on my One because of good guy Sprint. I just wish their coverage wasn't so crap.

Anyone yet? Just rooted and looking to get this working to. So annoying VZ
I know on other models of the phones you could get around the initial setup of the application by changing the build.prop to the verizion galaxy nexus. Then one the app was installed and setup you could revert the build.prop change so you would get normal suggestions for compatible apps on the play store.
Not sure if this works on the GS4 but it has on other NFC enabled Verizon phones.

I think now you can used the xposed framework to work around it without having to mod your build.prop.

i have paid for the foxfi wifi tethering app.
It was working fine before the latest update.
Now the phone is erroring out and is prompting me to click on a "go to my verizon mobile" or "call customer service button".
all you have to do is click on "My verizon mobile" when prompted and then just back out of the my v mobile app and the tethering works fine.
And no, i have accidently signed up with a tethering plan.. i double checked to see if it did.
Hopefully this helps a fellow paid foxfi user.

If your plan is capped at a data limit you WILL be able to use it. If not VZW would be in a lot of trouble. They got fined for this before. However those of us on an unlimited plan are blocked access to it.

Same here... any of the toggles or free tether apps still work. DO NOT hit cancel, just hit the home button and it stays on. Once its on you can still even configure set the WEP2 settings and passwords without any trouble.
Thats crazy...that means the update determines who has unlimited plans.... VZW is starting to crack down on us.....

Dont worry, it works, just hit home and not the verizon or cancel. Ive been using it just fine.
I haven't installed any updates and don't plan on it. So, what is it that I am missing from this update that has everyone losing their Root access to get? I sort of figured that Verizon would be sending out an update to eliminate the option of being able load the prerelease kernel or any other ones for that matter.
Sent from my Rooted Clean Rom 1.5 using xda app-developers app
Or just use a different firmware. I bought my phone already rooted - I previously would have been nervous about rooting it, but since it came that way... and launching the hotspot is just a simple button click in the notifications pull down.
FoxFi has been fixed, as of today, and now works just as it did before. It will ask you something about creating a certificate (which you can read about on their site I guess).. anyhow, I updated mine and it works w/o utilizing the "home button" trick from before.

Because Verizon always wants a piece of the pie no matter what. Google Wallet doesn't benefit them. Instead, they tried to get in with other carriers to create Isis, which is the same technology. Problem is that Isis is pretty much dead in the water, but Verizon won't give on to that reality, so they block the feature. With root, yes it is possible to use Google Wallet tap to pay. I did on my Galaxy S3.

It can be done on the S3, S4 and Note 2 currently with root. In theory it could still work on the Note 3. Its just a simple edit of the build.prop to another device model, install and setup wallet, then change the model number back.
(Not tested on Note 3. I havent tried so plz dont say that i said it could be done)

I tried the build prop trick on Galaxy Note 3 and it fails. I edited the build prop with no problem but when you open the Wallet app it gives the following error.....
Insufficient secure element privileges for this system image. (release-keys)
NOTE: I did swap my SIM card from my Note 2 to the Note 3 so I could use my most common phone number with the new device. I have not tried this trick with the pre-installed SIM card.

Changing the build prop is only half the fix you would need libs from either a sprint note 3 ROM. Once we get a recovery I will make a lib fix zip just as I did for the Verizon note 2.

Don't really need a flash file for this as you can manually place all the files as well. As far as I know though the Note 3 is missing the secure element to make this possible.
I sure the note 3 has a secure element ISIS uses the secure element and that works for tap to pay.

For those of you waiting patiently eek for root, there is a simple substitute for WiFi Tether that worked on the Note II and some other phones as well. I'm just leaving this here in case someone doesn't know.
1. Go to Settings > More Settings > Mobile Hotspot (don't turn it on, but select it).
2. Press Configure and set your desired hotspot settings.
3. Go to Play Store and download "Hotspot Toggle Widget" by Fattin Hotspot Network. Link.
4. Add widget to home screen.
5. Toggle widget on.
6. Press the Home button to dismiss this annoying, useless popup.
7. Enjoy.
This also works with Foxfi when you get the subscription notification, just click home and tether away.

I've been tethering on my unlimited plan for a couple years and have never had an issue. I use around 20GB per month, mostly without tethering, but I do use it.
I have tethered for years also. My kids and wife use my tether since I am only one with unlimited. I average 20 gb per month and never had any issues.

If you are on a not unlimited plan you should already have tethering enabled, so no need to do anything but use the built-in app.
