Sprint Wi-Fi Hotspot Mod? - Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers

Has anyone gotten this to work on the S9+ yet? I don't plan on activating mine until it is, and was hoping the same thing that worked on S8's would on this model as well.

Ive tried the S 7 Edge mod Here (https://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-s7-edge/how-to/hotspot-bypass-nougat-ok-t3563446)
but it makes the "you havent subscribed to hotspot" message come up (have to factory reset to get it back)
Sucks because it didnt even count data toward it. I think it has to do with OREO and wording changes in the CSC.
You keep looking and I will keep trying and hopefully we will get this going

Hotspot working
I was able to get mine to work. I used shortcut master lite, and searched for ltefunctionality. Went to let apn, and was able to change both settings to dun.

Shortcut master lite is working again

Thank you

This is what worked for me. My Shortcut Master Lite program had the APN greyed out. I followed these instructions to a T!
This..............
1) Dialer App, ##3282# (DATA)
2) Edit
3) Sprint MSL for mine is 000000
4) APN Settings
5a) "APN" and "APN protocol" should be editable. Make a minor change, save your APN.
5b) Then change them back, save the APN again. Do this for each APN you want full access to.
6) Open the Shortcut Master Lite and open LTEFunctionalityTest
7) Open LTE APN Setting
8) If it's greyed out, close everything and then restart from #6.
9) Edit APN Type, add ",dun" to the end.
10) After you finish editing, save, and you should be good to go.

I followed your steps, verified ",dun" saved even after a reboot, but when I try to enable hotspot, it says I havent subscribed.

Did you do it on all the apns?

just factory reset if you wrote to the global settings with ADB from the old MOD. the language is different in the build prop.
the ONLY way to get the build prop back is a factory reset. we are working on a new ADB method now!

[Q] I cannot edit rtsp/http settings from ##data# menu

Whenever I try to edit the rtsp/http settings for proxy manipulations (to speed up streaming), I find that I cannot pull anything up. i.e. when i press or long press the "RTSP/HTTP Setting" tab, nothing happens. I do not get the option to change anything.
I am currently using senseless rom 2.2 on a sprint evo 3d flashed over to cricket, S-ON, unlocked via HTC method. Even before I went to cricket, I was unable to edit this specific setting.
Does anyone know of another way to edit these settings? from QPST, or is there a pre-req that I am missing to be allowed access to this setting?
[UPDATE- SOLVED]
I solved this by reflashing a stock rom and then attempting the rtsp/http proxy editing. Apparently, there may be an issue with the senselessROM 2.2 and 2.7 that I was using before than disallowed me to edit this. Now, my youtube works on 3g, which is what I was trying to fix in the first place.
Also, the miui rom series does not register the ##data# command for editing settings. All changes for streaming proxies should be done on stock roms with msl codes obtained through qpst.

The main reason, I'm fairly sure is due to the /system/app/EPST.apk probably not being included in the Miui or senseless ROMs but is always included in the stock rom from sprint.
This apk file contains the broadcast receiver for the dialer codes and the additional functionality to allow for the adjustments and edits to be made.
Hope that helps provide a bit more insight!
Realize also if you do a complete wipe and reflash to another ROM. You will have to go back in reset your desired settings.

[Q] Flashing to Pageplus

I'm following the guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1575749 for flashing the evo 3d to page plus from sprint. currently i have the phone rooted with s-off running meanrom. under the instructions it says you need to enter the MSID on the phone and if you don't have it to call your service provider. I called page plus and they say that they can't give me a MSID without the phone being activated on their service. I'm not sure what to do next. Do I give them the new ESN and have the change the service and then will they be able to give me the MSID or is there another method to do this?
Thanks for any help.
Edit: i'm currently on page plus with a old lg 9100 and the phone i'm trying to flash is a sprint phone that has never been activated.
second question: the apn backup and restore app says that APNS cannot be restored or deleted on this device because android 4.0+ does not allow 3rd party apps to write apn settings. what should I do to get this to work. i have the phone rooted with s-off currently running meanrom. should i put a different rom on there?

Have you flashed the page plus prl yet? If so you need to call them and give them your esn number. I believe the msid is for if you want to port your number over first before you call page plus. If you followed the guide to a T up until the apn part. Even though apps won't allow you to write to the apn, its ok because all your gonna do is delete and restore. Put your phone in airplane plane mode. Delete your current apn, click restore apn chose the page plus one. Disable airplane mode and reboot. I hope this helps you.

thanks, for the input. i'm going to try this a little later today.
so just an update for anyone who might stumble onto this thread. I figured out the steps: (Thanks Jsparta26)
After I flashed the prl, I called page plus and they activated the ESN. The MSID was the same as my phone number. Phone still didn't work, so i reflashed the PRL and then the phone was working. I didn't need to delete the APN, it was just working after. Now phone works for calls and 1x data. no MMS yet, got to figure that one out.
thanks for the help.
Your mms is also included in the apn file. Try the delete and restore method to see if works for you

I'm getting the message: Unfortunately APSs cannot be restored or deleted on this device because Android 4.0+ does not allow 3rd party apps to Write APN settings.
The Options in the Program are: Backup APNs, Restore APNs, Delete Backup Files, Delete APNs, and Donate.
Not sure what to do from here.
Ignore the part of backup, delete and restore. I was able to do this with an aosp rom and should work with a sense rom. You just cannot write to the apn file. Make a backup of your original apn, delete the current one, then restore using the page plus apn file and reboot. It should work. If not then manually copy it the apn file with a file explorer into your sdcard and take the page plus file and paste in the original location of the file and reboot. Let me know if that works.COLOR="Silver"]
---------- Post added at 09:39 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:33 AM ----------
[/COLOR]Which app are you using? Well if it don't work then I have another solution. Do you happen to know the settings of page plus's apn settings? Also do you know your msl code? If so, then open up your dialer and type ##3282# and punch in your msl code under edit. Once your through click on advanced and scroll down to the bottom of the screen and click on mmsc settings. If you know the settings you can manually input the settings in their correct spots. Once you do that hit commint changes or modifications at the top of the screen and hit reboot

I think I figured it out. In the settings for the program there is an option for "ignore ICS". i selected that and was able to delete and restore. looks like mms is now working, but it still shows 1x data.

yeah, 1x not so good.
Well I am glad that you got mms working. Not sure about the 1x signal, it could be a cell tower issue, not enough cell towers or that page plus's network is low priority. Have you flashed the latest page plus prl?

plenty of cell towers here, so that shouldn't be a problem. i'll try and flash the other prls and see what i get (right now i'm running the one from the main thread included in the rar). in the main thread i think there were problems with people not getting 3g. if i can't solve it with the prls, i'll have to comb through that thread for a solution.
Thanks for your help.
Jordan
No problem. Just keep this in mind. Check to see if your radios are up to date on page plus's firmware. People used to have that problem when they went flash happy with the vm ruu ics leak back in may and messed up their phones with the dreaded 1x signal. Just something to think about. Good luck.

switch to 3G

Hi all sorry if this has been asked before, but can I switch from 4glte to 3g without rooting?? I have the at&t version of the phone. Thanks for any help.
your phone must be rooted to use Root Explorer, then use Root Explorer to edit build.prop:
find a line with "networkmode", default is disable, edit it to enable then reboot.

Try this -
1. Open up the dialer
2. Dial *#*#4636#*#*. A hidden menu should pop up.
3. Go to 'Phone information'
4. Scroll down to the "set preferred network type" dropdown and select "WCDMA preferred" or "GSM auto (PRL)." That should lock out LTE until the next reboot.

[Q] Rooted lg g3, No APNs, no ability to add APNs

Hi, so before I go out and purchase a new SIM I was hoping someone could help me. Originally I was trying to alter the MMS port set in my APN because MMS was failing over wifi due to running Adblock. In doing so I somehow managed to erase my Internet APN. I believe it was just set to vzwinternet.
So on my lg g3 I unfortunately have no way to add an APN, it works fine for wifi and calls still but I have no cellular internet at the moment. The only option when going to APN settings is Reset to Defaults, which does nothing as it just shows "No APNs". The mobile networks option is actually greyed out under Settings->Wireless & Networks->More... but I'm able to get to APN Settings still by using an app.
Possible solutions I've thought of, does anyone knows if these are possible?
A) Is there any way to edit my build.prop to allow me to add an APN such as "ril.sales_code=LOL & ro.csc.sales_code=LOL" (I've tried this it doesn't work).
B) Is it possible to re-add it by replacing apns-conf.xml in /system/etc/ ? If that is possible could someone post theirs so I can replace it?
C) Are there any root apps to allow me to add an APN? (from my research there aren't any since android 4.0)
Or am I just going to have to go out and get a new SIM? I've already master reset hoping it was software related and that hasn't helped.
EDIT: Nevermind guys fixed it by doing a reflash back to factory with lg flashtool. Nothing to see here *whistles*
Hi Jab
I met the same issue.
Could you please tell me how to reflash back to factory?
Thank you
You need to root it, and use shortcut master to open APN setting, same case with my US Cellular G3

Tether bypass (msl required)

Before Starting Make Sure You Have A Copy Of Your Internet Settings. (Everything in APN Settings)
Go to the Data Menu by entering ##DATA#
Select the APN Settings & Select Edit (Enter MSL)
Tap Each APN Separately (Select Edit & Enter MSL) & DELETE APNs (By Selecting The 3 Dots To The Right)
**You won't be able to delete ota apn but that's fine.
**Now you should have no internet!!!
Go To Regular Settings Then Select (More, Mobile Networks, Access Point Names) & Add APN Manually. **Adding "default,mms,supl,dun" under APN TYPE
**Put in all the correct settings the first time before saving APN. YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO GO BACK & EDIT APN AFTER IT'S SAVE. (The only way to correct the APN once saving it is to start at step one. Yes starting all over.)
Once You Put The Correct APN Settings In & Save It, LTE or DATA Should Show Up.

Same version as yours because there's no updates yet. If you're in good standing, call thrm and get the phone internationally unlocked. Tell them that you're going on a trip or something to another country and you would like to get the phone internationally unlocked. You must be in good atanding with Sprint to do so. Read the whole post I linked.
I called up one of my buddys that works at sprint got it UICC unlocked within 30 minutes now i have the apn settings that allow me to finally add things awesome!

I took like 5 min worth of logs and got a lot. Advice is be quik once logs enabled. Setup wasnt to bad either. Follow the apps directions on goog play. Lol if i can do it just about anyone should be able to.

thanks.... i tried it with ##DATA# but i could not find the MSL code or hex code to extract MSL even searched log for 1 hour with "OEM_HOOK_RAW" text.. anyways I got MSL just now from sprint by activating it temporarily on a sprint account.
Anyways The issue now is I am not able to delete APNs as no option comes to delete in APN settings by ##DATA# for all APNs but ota.. option to delete comes for ota and i enter MSL but nothing happens...
Do I need to put sprint sim and let it register to network and then do PRL update and profile update?
I am afraid to do it as it will install sprint logo and sprint apps if i do it.. i think i can remove some using ##BRAND# but doing that will it effect my unlock?
Please suggest.
Thanks in advance..
