I already added it but it says that my account isn't connected to my device so it says to add it through developer options. But the problem is that it needs 4g/data which i don't have and can't access.

AFAIK, what is needed is mobile data and not "4G". If you have 3G, enable data and try.

Because data network is needed to connect your phone number with Xiaomi aacount. As i said before, it wont work with wifi, you have to do it with mobile data.

Are you sure? Because I was able to link my phone with Mi account while being on WiFi, so this is something new for me. Any credible source describing such limitation?

Who needs creditable source. Just try to add ur account without sim card
Who's talking about adding Mi account without SIM card? Thread is about adding MI account without access to mobile data, OP did not mention that he does not have SIM card and phone number at all?

You wouldn't know how the Mi account was accessed from the mobile if it also had a sim. I know that when wifi is enabled, mobile data is not accessed but we really don't know whether mobile data was accessed or not. That was why the earlier poster told you to attempt the linking without a sim. For all we know, Xiaomi may have a way of accessing mobile data even when wifi is enabled.

I have MetroPCS and I was able to get around tethering by using a VPN, now I can't even connect to the VPN without this thing popping up when I try to click on the network. It's like it requires authentication now. Image attached.
I'm not talking about the upsell page itself, I'm talking about the authentication window that pops us.

MetroPCS/T-Mobile knows if you've been tethering. You'll see this page if you've exceeded your allotment.
The best way around this is to us PdaNet+ and USB or Bluetooth thether.

Just because you have unlimited 4g does not mean you get unlimited hotspot capabilities. They consider them separate.

I worded this wrong.
I just updated my laptop to Windows 10 and lost the ability to have a wireless connection with the stock Z3v and my laptop. I can still connect with the USB cable, but It won't let me setup the wireless/wifi connection. I tried downloading Sony PC Companion but that couldn't find the Z3v. Any ideas?

What kind of laptop do you have? The basic way to get WiFi into your device is just to enable hotspot from your phone.

No, what he's saying is the Z3v has the ability to "Pair" with a windows machine over WiFi so that you can transfer data without the need to have a data cable. Windows 10 breaks that feature. I have the same issue.

I think when you are connected USB and you swipe down to the notifications area it gives you the option to pair.

Same issue. Spent the entire week on this issue. Was wondering if anyone had the same issue until i hit this thread.
Maybe Sony would make an update for the PC companion or (As my z3 dual with 5.0.2 shows no windows 10 option in the pair menu. MAybe with 5.1.1, windows 10 option would appear).
Well maybe we just have to wait.
Windows 10 have WiFi connectivity issue
I have also same issues

I rebooted/restarted both the pc and Z3v after and nothing's changed. What else should I be doing?
I also tried this but still no connectivity. Sony Z3c (6.0.1) to PC Win 10. That will teach me to install a new pc at the same time as a system upgrade on my phone
If my fix does not work for you then there is no hope as the new version of pc software has the wireless file transfer functionality removed.
The app works and I changed the mobile settings to ipv4..it still is using the hotspot data..does any one have all the correct settings? Thank you and thanks to all the developers for their great work.

I have been noticing that on the lg g4 and now the v10 that mobile my account shows small usage of mobile data but not the actual amount I used. I might just be a mobile thing. Not quite sure but I too saw the same thing. But I also watched a week's worth of anime on my laptop via router and only was a 20mb increase in hotspot usage.
What are your mobile settings and the app settings? Thanks

I used all the same as the stock apn except I changed to ipv4...I assume you're rooted. Did you turn off the wifi scan setting under wifi?
Yes, I'm rooted and the scanning is off. I have even emailed the developer of the app. His last response was that I need a vpn.
There must be some sneaky software tracking whether you have tethering enabled. My Hotspot Data is being used/throttled no matter if I'm behind a VPN or tethering to another Android phone.
I'm rooted, removed all of the suspicious looking system apps, and set the APN settings to what I've always used before. I'm at the point of giving up and probably just going to use another phone to tether until a stable custom ROM is released.
I used to have this problem on my old Note 4 where the WiFi Tether app was working perfectly but Tmo was still tracking my data usage. The workaround that I found was to connect to a private VPN on my laptop. I used Private Internet Access to hide my IP and then I was able to tether off my phone with Tmo no longer capturing data used. I'm not sure if it will work on my new v10 though since I haven't gotten around to rooting it yet. I think there's a free Google Chrome extension that will do that same thing and for free. I forgot the name, sorry.
On my note 3 the guide I followed said I had to change the build file in a couple spots and then it worked perfect if that helps u guys out at all I really want this but can't use a vpn bc ps4 won't allow it with online gaming and my phone all I got out here in the woods

Brother I have to pay for tethering. And only allowed 4gigs. That's why I'm asking. I have tried a lot of apps but failed. It still shows that I am using my allowance .
Not quite sure what you are trying to do. You can tether to your phone within the settings or wifi tether to another device, using the wifi settings

Bro thing is I am paying extra £5 for 30gigs of tethering.and I have my 3UK app. Which shows me how much I have used off that allowance. On my Samsung galaxy s4 omega ROM. My allowance would remain the same. Showing that there was something built in the ROM which prevented my service provider to not know that I am using using WiFI Hotspot
OK I understand !
In France we are allowed to use wifi tethering without over taxes !

I see that you have also posted this question on the elephone.hk forum with a similar lack of clarity. What exactly are you trying to achieve?
Tethering is where your phone becomes a WiFi access point and other devices connect to it to use the phone's mobile data connection to access the Internet. I'm sure you know this, but I don't understand why you would think that your telco would provide this data connection for free.
As a rule of thumb, if you have a data plan with your telco (Three, or whoever) which allows unlimited data, then you are normally limited to a certain amount of data that can be used by other devices connected via your phone. This limit might be zero. If your plan isn't unlimited, then usually telcos don't care how the data is used. I don't know exactly how they know whether data is going to a tethered device, but I suspect that there is information within the TCPIP header which can be snooped.
So are you looking for an app that will disguise the fact that you have other devices tethered to your phone? Do you have two separate data allowances - one for tethering and one for direct traffic? I don't know of any app which will disguise tethered data, but if you describe your problem more clearly, perhaps someone else will be able to help - or tell your that it is not possible.

Well brother I pay extra £5 for 30gig of WiFi hotspot. On my galaxy s4 I had Omega ROM and I could use unlimited as it was disguising my network usage. I have a three app installed on my phone. And it shows how much data I have used from my allowance. Where as on Gs4 it show zero MBS used of allowance.
Don't think you can get round it. Well not here anyways best bet is to look for an app that could help you with the masking of your data usage as this isn't specific to just this phone
Thanks will do

Reset network settings and try again.
The core job of Hotspot it to share your mobile data with other devices through Wi-Fi.

Maybe it's due to low data transfer rate you were not able to use it while hotspot is enabled.
