Thank you! Worked. To be more specific on what to search for in Shortcut Master (Lite), its "$apnsettingsactivity" without the quotes. The app name will be "Settings" and more detailed info about the app will show "com.android.settings.Settings$ApnSettingsActivity".
Any way I could get a bit more step-by step instructions? Thanks in advance! This would be a godsend considering how Boost's mobile hotspot service is $10 for 2Gb... That's bad news when Battlefield 4 puts out updates that are 1,500 Mb. :banghead:

Download "Shortcut Master (Lite)" from Google Play store. Open the app and go to the options menu by clicking on the vertical 3 dots at the top right corner. Click on "Search...". Where it says "Enter text to search" at the bottom, type in "$apnsettingsactivity" without the quotes. The app name will be "Settings" and more detailed info about the app will show "com.android.settings.Settings$ApnSettingsActivity". With my phone, it only popped up with that. If yours pops up with more apps after searching, just look for this field-> "com.android.settings.Settings$ApnSettingsActivity". Click on it and click "Launch". Now you will be in the APNs window. Select the APN that is in use (bubbled in). Now you will be in the Edit access point window. Scroll down and look for "APN type". Select that and put in the field that pops up "default,mms,dun" without the quotes. Click "OK". Now, I believe the final step is to restart your phone. Your all set
Not working for me?
It seems I'm not able to save apn.
Anyone know if the latest software update breaks this?
I did this with full updates today. Works fine. Make sure you save at top right by the dots drop down. Install a Wi-Fi tethering app.
Anyone comment on what is lost by putting in default,mms,dun?
Instead of dun mine said hipri or something. Worried I lost something and dun should just be added at the end. I should have taken a ss.
Edit it is hipri. Seems no reason to remove it. Still researching though.

I wish there was a way to add a toggle to the notification drop-down.
All the toggle apps on the market are hideous and/or slow, so I slapped together a clean little app with Tasker app factory that toggles the mobile hotspot on or off instantly: tinyurl dot com slash gs9lgkf (new user, can't post links)
edit: you still need to edit your apn obviously.

Hate to have to ask 4 something not even related to this discussion but..... I'm looking at getting the ZTE Warp Elite 5.5" phone with Boost Mobile but...... cannot find a link on XDA 4 rooting & would be nice but not necessary anything to do with TWRP!!! To me a phone is handicapped to h*** and back without TWRP but........... root would be enough to get me to purchase.
ANY help would be greatly appreciated bro

zte warp elite root.
Can you use Shortcut Master to help root process of the ZTE warp elite n9518? You can unlock free hotspot no root necessary.
After using the shortcut master to hotspot, hotspot in 4g is very very slow.
My other phone is 3 g and is acceptable speed at 3g.
Is there Any way to control the network speed of the zte warp elite while hotspoting.
My phone refuses to operate 3g hotspot. I use a $35 plan,just wondering whether 3g on zte would be faster, if I could control it.

Just wondering of the procedure is the same as the captivate to view app that at&t normally blocks in the android market
Go to the online marketplace with your desktop and the app will be sent to your phone. Don't think that ATT can block it that way.
That doesn't work either. I tried it just to see by installing barnacle tethering. When you choose the device all of mine are grey and can't be chosen.
there is a thread in Atrix Development forum that will direct you on how to change the APN of your phone to get free tethering without an app.
here it is...

My school has a Wifi that is encrypted with a proxy, and there is no way for me to be able to use it. I can connect to the Wifi, and use apps like Mail, Opera Mini, Google Voice(Used to work but since yesterday does not wok on the school wifi anymore). Other apps such as the web browser do not work because they require you to input a proxy. Well I have a HTC Incredible 2 and on my phone if you go to proxy settings in the Web Browser you are able to input the Wi-Fi Proxy host and port, which I do and it still doesn't work. I then downloaded the app ProxyDroid and that doesn't work as well, I also tried the PAC and that also didn't connect. I know this isn't just my phone as I had the same problem on my HTC Incredible 1, LG Ally, and tons of other custom ROMs on this phone. Also nobody in my school that has any Android phone is able to connect to the Wifi. But on the iPhone's/iPod Touch the school wifi works perfectly and it accepts the proxy. What am I doing wrong?
My school's host name is Proxy, and its port is 8002. I can either use that or the PAC which is http://proxy.nycboe.org/proxy.pac .
Already replied to you on rootzwiki with exactally what to tell your school. They deserve it.

Is your phone rooted?. PROXYDROID needs root access to function... Android has way better PROXY support than iphones...

Yes my phone is rooted.
Let me understand, Gmail and Opera Mini worked, right?
So it must be a stock browser problem...not the phone itself.

No its not the phones problem. Gmail and Opera Mini work because they send the data through the protocol SOCKET. Every other app doesn't work as well such as Market, Browser, Firefox, Aim, AndChat, Barcode Scanner, Netflix, ect. Even on the iPhone if you don't input the proxy settings then Safari won't work, but the mail application will/and opera mini will.
BUMP?

The tech at your school has nothing to do with this. This is done by diit, a doe vendor. It is controlled externally.
Use these settings
proxy: filtr.nycboe.org

Hi I have the sprint LG G3 Vigor LS885 model. I got myself rooted now all I need to complete my life is to get my hotspot working with out sprints annoying subsciption pop up. Ive tried hundreds of apps. All fail or try to sucker you into purchasing. Been at this for 7 hours Im friggin exhausted. Anybody save me or point me into the right directions, because Im almost positive because in my 1000s of searches I came across 0 roms for this device lol. Any help much appreciated. TY in advanced.
Have you tried to add ,dun to the internet and cinet.sprint APN's? If not, download shortcut master (lite) and search APN, and look thru and see if any of the choices that show lge_hiddenmenu vzw, or similar allow you to edit the internet apn.

How did u get root for the ls885 vigor??
sqlite editor data/data/com.providers.settings&telephony db's, just change whatever looks like needs changing. 0's to 1's here n there add subscriptions to ur sim etc......
I have an Alcatel OneTouch Pixie Glitz. Tracfone. Android ver. 4.4.2 No modifications at all.
I want to enable the hotspot on my phone, but the option to do that is missing from the settings. I tried several apps to enable with no success. I asked for a solution on another forum and was directed here. Could someone explain what I need to do and/or direct me to a guide?
Thanks
Your carrier probably charges extra for that service. Mine does.

I checked Tracfone's site and could not find anywhere that said they offered that service. I might have been willing to pay for it if they offered it.

If you can find a root method for your device, then you can use one of the hotspot/tethering apps from the PlayStore, you'll have to try a variety of hotspot apps, some of them can be made to work with a few adjustments to their in-app settings(some require a bit more to get working, such as, edits to your build.prop file or some terminal commands).
There's no specific suggestion I can give you because it doesn't work the same for all devices and android versions. You'll have to do some researching and experimentation to find something that works.

I did some research and saw that if you manage to turn on the hotspot you will get a warning from Tracfone.
Are there any hotspot/tethering apps that disguise this usage?

I have been using hotspot/tether on Straight Talk(TracFone) for over 5 years with 4 different devices, I haven't done anything to hide it and I've used a large amount of data while hotspotting/tethering. I haven't received any kind of warnings yet.
You can try the "FoxFi" app with the "FoxFi key" app(this is not a free app) or the "PDANet" app with the "FoxFi Key" app. Purchasing the key unlocks all the features and allows you to hide the fact that you're tethering.

I wanted to try the towelroot method for rooting but for unknown reasons my phone will not allow the app to download from the site geohot set up for it. Yes, I enabled the install from unknown sources. Could someone post the file to this thread or direct me to where on XDA it is posted?

Turn of anti-virus and it might download. Try a different browser when you download it. Use a different device or PC to download it. I downloaded it just fine from Geohot's website so your issue is on your end.

Go to system settings>applications>(chrome or browser), then check it's permissions, make sure it has access to storage or it won't download.

I will check but I downloaded Framaroot off XDA forums, no problem.
I believe I was being blocked by the various free Wi-Fi spots. I walked around my neighborhood and found a no password protected Wi-Fi and downloaded just fine. Sadly, when I tried to install it, I got a pop up that said installation blocked because app would bypass android security. Back to square one.
Build from sources of RootPayEnabler & PermanentProxy-for-WearOS.
big thanks to those guys.
It simply enable a thosen proxy , and enable Google Pay when enabling the proxy.
Install it on your Wear OS watch directly using ADB with "adb install WearProxy.9.1.apk".
Enable the Developer Options . Settings -> System -> About and tap the Build number until you are a "developer".
Next, go to Settings -> Developer options and enable "ADB debugging" and "Debug over Bluetooth".
Finally start up WearProxy, request permission and press "Allow" or "Always allow this Computer" if prompted.
After requesting permission, ADB can be turned off again to save battery, unless you want to turn off the proxy completely.

there really isn't much more to say about the project unfortunately .. what do you want to know?
der egentligt ikke så meget mere at fortælle om projektet desværre .. hvad vil du vide ?
I did not quite understand how to use the app itself. Do I need to have root to use this? Do I need to use a computer to use this app?
Thanks!
First of all - thanks 4 your development. I had some issues with WearProxy and Pay Enabler was not really working 4 me on my Fossil Gen 4. I`ll definitely try your app.
As i got - i need to find the good proxy and give it 2 your app? Dunno where to find fast one, couse with regular public proxy i got big delay in notification and other things.
I installed it on my watch. Why it halfly on some moonspeak language? When i`m pressing "Weeee" button, it telling me "Gammelt Lort" on Dutch language, that meant "Old poop" (not poop . Can you please leave it on ENG or where I can change it?
Anyway, the Orbot in USA VPN mode for Wear OS & Google Pay apps - still the best solution as for me. Hope your app will help me to move from that chain
Okay, everything is working perfect. Dont know what the difference between your app and WearProxy, but your app working as for now. Thanks, bro!
I`m using 45.76.2.34:8080 US proxy.
After couple reboots it stops working. I have Fossil Gen 4, and no root on it, maybe that is the reason... App continuously showing me my home wifi ip. Tried 2 stop and reinstall - nothing. And Google Play says there is no internet connection. So, i`m moving back 2 Orbot & US VPN.
