How to enable WiFi Hotspot with root - Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just recently figured out how to modify my apns using an app someone modified. Once I get the devs name I will post his/her name for them to be donated to or so.
Mod edit: Download link removed.
Tested on my personal phone G925P
1. Be sure your device is rooted. TWRP not needed but recomended for your personal safety.
2. Download the HiddenMenu apk (when link is posted.)
3. Use a root enabled app to install the apk to system
4. Reboot phone
5. When the phone comes back up, dial ##3282#
6. When it asks view or edit click Edit
7. This is the best part. It disables the need for the msl so go to apn and add dun at the end of the apn type of the apn that you run off of. I put it at the end of all to be sure. DO NOT CHANGE ANYTHING ELSE IN THE APN. LEAVE WHAT IS ALREADY IN THE APN TYPE THERE. JUST TYPE ",dun" AT THE END WITH 0 SPACES.
Will be edited when final details are obtained.

Awaiting reply from the source who posted the link
As of Thu, April 14 2016 11:11 PM CST,
I still have not recieved word from the person I messaged to get the apk. Will update this post again when I get a respone. If not will give another status update.

What's the original source of the app (before it was modified)? Was it a pay app? Who modified it and posted it?

No it is the stock application that usually requires the msl code from the carrier to edit apns through the data menu within thr HiddenMenu apk. This app was modified by a dev. Idk who but once i get a reply I will know and post the thanks section to them.

So, you are providing someone else's work and you don't know who it belongs to or what modifications have been made? Did you have permission to share this work?
Until these questions are answered, I am closing this thread and removing the link.

[WEBTOOL] Note 2 Multi Window Tool

READ ALL OF THIS POST CAREFULLY!
Multi Window on the Note 2 is kinda cool, but it only works with limited apps, which kinda sucks. There are 2 solutions to this - the first is to wait for developers to add support (perhaps using my guide), the second is to edit one of the framework APKs to enable other apps. The second is the most useful, but perhaps a little complex for most people.
So here's a tool to help.
This tool takes a list of apps and creates you an update zip (for flashing via clockworkmod) with a modified framework APK that enables your chosen apps for multi window support.
Important points to note...
This tool is ONLY tested on the LJ1 release, additional options are added via user requests. I STRONGLY recommend you don't use the resulting zip on a ROM version other than that for which it's intended.
Backup before flashing the update zip. No really! Or at LEAST backup the framework-res.apk.
If you don't want to use clockworkmod you can extract the framework-res.apk and push it via ADB. Make sure to set the permissions to 0644 or your device won't boot.
Be very careful to ensure that your entries in the tool are correctly formed or again you could end up with a non-booting device.
Use this tool at your own risk!
Got that? OK, let me tell you how to compile the list in the tool.
Simply, you need to enter <item> </item> tags with the 'package names' of your chosen apps in the textbox. Package names are best found on the web Play Store by looking at the URL. Here's some examples for you.
Plume on the web Play Store is at play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.levelup.touiteur - therefore the package name is com.levelup.touiteur and you should use the entry <item>com.levelup.touiteur</item>.
TVCatchup on the web Play Store is at play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gzero.tv - therefore the package name is com.gzero.tv and you should use the entry <item>com.gzero.tv</item>.
Simple eh? Just put in the ones you need, hit the button and download your update zip.
To use the tool, head on over to this topic.
Have the xml precharged samsung apps or build from 0 and we need to add chrome, talk, snote, etc?
The pre-configured stuff stays, just put in things you want to *add*.

If someone on LJ3 can post their unedited/stock framework-res.apk Paul said he should be able to update his script to deal with that too.

work perfectly! now I have about 40 apps
I'm a bit short of time, but I will add an option where you can upload your framework-res.apk for patching to avoid version issues.

if you want faster to find out package name. go to www.play.google.com then press installed apps and you will be able to find faster package name of your all installed apps

Paul did most of the leg work even for what I did. All I did was turn his findings into a mod so that people could have something while Paul worked on a better system (like this one he has made).

I threw together a little app to steamline the process a bit. This is my first android program so this thing contains a whole 3 hours of android wisdom...
It's a frankenstein mix of googled code but it gets the work done. A work in progress. This version asks for some storage/call/debug permissions which I have no idea how to remove or limit. So if that makes you feel uneasy pm me and I can send you the netbeans project in a 7z and you can check the source code and compile it yourself.
What the app does is display a list of installed packages by item name, you can then select the ones you want, hit the export button which will copy your selection to the clipboard, open a browser window to pauls page where you can paste it into the text area and download the generated apk all directly on the phone.
I would not recommend selecting all items in the list, this might have horrible consequences. Just select stuff you recognize.
For me the download popped up cfw but then failed to install the apk (possible due to file location), so I moved the apk to the root dir, rebooted to cfw recovery and then flashed just fine.
In later versions I'll see about reducing permissions, add icons to the list.
Disclaimer: Whatever you do with this app, whatever consequences come from using this app, is on you.
Thanks for the lovely apk page. <3

Are you adding one app. Flash the generated zip and then add one app, generate a new file and flash it? If so, dont do it that way You must add all apps you want in the same file, generate that and flash it

Verizon Visual Voice Mail Galaxy S4 Custom ROM
Ok. I figured it out.
Yes, its all over the place, but certainly not in any usable form.
So for the benefit of other noobs, like myself, here is what I am running, and what I did.
I have a galaxy s4, currently running Hyperdrive ROM v 7.
I was able to download the VisualVoiceMail.apk file from somewhere on this site. If you cannot locate it, send me a pm and I will be happy to email it.
Also, as always, its a good idea to have a nandroid backup that is fairly recent just in case things go sideways on you.
Second, after reading many different posts, none having anything in specific with a Galaxy S4, I downloaded Root Browser from Google Play.
Next, i had the apk file in my devices download directory.
Using Root Browser, browse to the devices system/app directory and view the permissions of 1 or 2 apps. You can view the permissions by holding down on the app and a menu will pop up and select permissions. View those permissions and copy them down.
Next using Root Browser, browse to the voice mail apk file, and hold down on the file until the menu pops up and make sure the permissions here are identical to the apps you previously viewed. I had to change one or two. save changes.
Next, copy the file to the devices system/app directory using Root browser.
Next reboot.
The app should appear in your app drawer and you should be good to go.
Verizon Visual Mail file
just in case, I have attached file if anyone needs.

Quick/short how to enable hidden menu (not CM)

There are some lengthy conversations about this so I thought I would shorten things up a bit. This is what "I" did after reading for a an hour or so...
Doesn't work with CM and I had to have root access in order to do what I did. I'm pretty sure there's a non rooted method in the 1st link.
**** I Always do a nandroid/system backup via custom recovery before doing things like this . I'm not responsible for you jacking up your phone. I'm only relaying what I did to my phone so proceed at your own risk.
1) Do a backup in custom recovery
2) I used a file manager, Root Explorer, & confirmed hiddenmenu.apk was in /system/app
3) I used text editor in Root Explorer and navigated to /efs/carrier/HiddenMenu. Changed OFF to ON
4) reboot
5) I viewed LTE band by dialing *#0011#
6) I forced band 4 by dialing *#27663368378# then followed these steps umts>debug>phonecontrol>Network control>band>LTE
7) I reverted the band 4 force by dialing *#27663368378# then followed these steps umts>debug>phonecontrol>Network control>band>automatic. I had to go to sytem settings and get back on LTE & CDMA...menu soft key>system settings>connections>tethering and networks>mobile networks>network mode>LTE/CDMA.
​***Now if you don't have the Hidden menu app (.apk) then below is a zipped copy. You will also find a copy of my carrier file which is the parent folder to Hidden menu (file/folder that contains the Hidden menu) . Use the carrier file if you cant get the OFF to ON change to persist (stay ON)
1) First do a backup in your custom recovery.
2) rename your carrier file to carrier.bak
3) copy my carrier file to your efs file
4) ) reboot system
5) profit
***OR***
1) Do a backup in custom recovery
2) rename your hiddenmenu to hiddenmenu.bak
3) copy my hiddenmenu to your carrier file
4) reboot system
5) profit

Recent interest in the Samsung Hidden Menu is due to the new band 4 LTE that is producing the blazing fast speeds. Critical/important info can be viewed as well as other features can be changed in the Hidden Menu too. Some examples are your IMEI can be found by enabling the Sammy Hidden Menu and you can change your LTE band from 13 to band 4...
ok....i'm stuck. When I navigate to the file and change off to on, I save the file. But then when I return to view the file again, it has been switched back to off.
What am I doing wrong ? I am saving it. In fact, I get the message "You have made changes to this file, do you want to save before exit? " I choose yes. I must be missing something.....

I just went back via RootExplorer and started from stock/OFF. Everything persisted. Try this app...
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.speedsoftware.rootexplorer&hl=en
Once you enable the hidden menu what is it your wanting to do? When you change OFF to ON, save/exit, and immediately open the file back up what does it read?

I really want to turn off the wifi power saving mode. I have been haveing persistant wifi problems after the 4.3 update and i wanted to give this a try.
I will try the suggested explorer. However, using root explorer, when i change the off to on, save and exit, when i return to the file, it is back to off.

Text Message Meta Data Question

I received a Text message sent from an E-Mail and I was wondering if it was possible to find the individual file on the filesystem holding the metadata for the E-Mail.
If so, would I have to root the phone? And where would that file be located?
I'm a techie, so no need to warn me that I could hurt my phone or files - I'm only looking to READ, not WRITE, and I'd be making a copy of that file beforehand anyways and porting it to a PC in order to check it with whatever program is necessary to decrypt (Probably only need a hex editor, but if someone knows better, feel free to pass that information along, too )
Anyways, is it possible?
Thank you for your time.

You can get access to system files by using a file manager. To edit files, you need to root your phone.
If it is *.txt attachment that was attached in that mail, go to downloads and look for it.
Now, serious. Why so serious?
If you are looking to decompile that mail app, use APKTOOL to decompile. Search on xda for the links. :good:
The apk file can be found on the device in: /system/app/ here
If the apk file is odexed, then you have to first deodex it to make it as one apk file Search on xda for the tutorials. :good:
If you are asking to decrypt mails, ask NSA :laugh: :laugh: :silly:
I am a newbie here. So I don't know where that file is located exactly.

Just to reiterate, the person sent me a TEXT. I open my text app and I read their text. I want to find the file containing that exact text. (Extra info, info you don't really need to know and MAY have confused you: The text was sent via an E-Mail... Meaning they logged into their E-Mail, typed my phone number, and my phone received a TEXT from that E-Mail address straight to my SMS inbox). I'm not sure if I was clear enough on that. But I am trying to open an SMS sent straight to my phone AS IF from another phone.
What did you mean why so serious? I'm just trying to seem professional in my question. Hate to confuse people. Also: Decrypying a file should a) not be necessary, but MAY be (still highly doubt it), and B) Does not require NSA lol. I can do it myself, and if not, I've got a buddy who could do it for sure. But ALL I'M TRYING TO GET is the "metadata" from the SMS that'll HOPEFULLY give me the metadata for the E-Mail.
Thanks for your time.
Solution
I think I have found a solution to your problem.
This is the absolute path to SMS and MMS DB on most android devices:
/data/data/com.android.providers/telephony/databases/mmssms.db
It is the file where these messages are stored.
I don't own this device but still I have posted the screen shots
I think you get what I am trying to say.

Are you asking or stating? If you are stating, then you may have gotten a bad download. I just re-verified the download and all is well. The file is very small.
Works perfectly. Thanks!
After reboot, original build.prop is back and the vzw files dropped the .bak. I am rooted, but not unlocked so wp is on, and I guess native tether is not gonna work. Didn't try it before reboot though.

Product of wp being on. You can try to open my build.prop and copy and paste the entire prop into your file effectively replacing the contents. See if that takes.

@Topsnake, is it possible to rig your previous MOD ([MOD][ROOT]Native Wireless Tether for build 19.6.3) for 4.4.4?
It appears that having a modded VZWEntitlementServices.apk which takes care of the native tether and only that is a cleaner solution than modifying the build.prop as the latter is referenced a lot by many processes which, consequently, could lead to far reaching side effects.
BTW, do you know if anyone tried your VZWEntitlementServices.apk on 4.4.4?

Thought I replied to this.
The 19.5.3 would probably work for 4.4.4 but I haven't tried it.
The build.prop is a much cleaner install when done correctly.

@Topsnake can you please elaborate on the changes you made to the stock buiuld.prop file?
I know you've mentioned in another thread that your method and the one using EntitlementBypass-v1.2.apk (from Moto X forum) are using the same commends. Would I be correct assuming that you've:
1. Added net.tethering.noprovisioning=true
and
2. Changed ro.mot.tether_dun_required to 0
Are those are the only difference between your build.prop and the stock one?
The reason I ask, is that, as I said earlier in this thread, build.prop is pretty significant file (from what I understand) and sets a lot of variables and settings. I'm hesitant to modify it in fears that by enabling native tether other unwanted side effects would arise.
Thanks

line 259 net.tethering.noprovisioning=true appears to be the only addition to the original build.prop
Should the result should be the same if we just edit the prop.buld right on the device and add that line?
Are you unlocked bl?

So then copy the contents of the build prop into yours or replace it all together. It takes of all about 3 seconds.
It will be the same.
Whelp that's it's for me @NWKENT @Jaocagomez @Caseyk621 @bigv5150 @rmjones2006 i'm done helping this community and dealing with all these people who feel like something is owed to them. It's been fun.

"I'm not required to disclose the details of any mod to you" - this might or might not be true as I'm not familiar with Open Source Licensing and you might be required to disclose. Regardless, you did not, that's part why you came across as not completely honest.
The fact that most developers (Jcase, Faux123, beaups, iKrYpToNiTe, just to name a few) DO disclose everything makes me thank that you might be required to do full disclosure.
"Either apply it, or don't." - I did not. I applied command provided by iKrYpToNiTe

If you are really that concerned about the build.prop being altered in a way that you feel the need to be worried, then simply compare your current build.prop to the modified one that topsnake has provided. It's that simple. No need to start arguments about what one person feels is better or safer or whatever else you think; I personally research anything that I do to my phone by tearing down apk's or batch files or whatever it might be that I'm applying to my phone to see what is being done. By doing this it also helps you learn how these exploits work and helps you learn more about your phone in general.
If you're not comfortable with changing files then don't do it. It's that simple.
Not calling any one particular person out in general, but there is so much of the same information continually being repeated that it is extremely frustrating. I'm to the point where I don't even try and help because I'm just repeating what I said a page or two back, or the post directly below.
