This was done in 4.4.2. Might be 4.3 have some different method of blocking .

Can u upload screen shot of about menu and entry where its (3).

Just did and still no good

 

[hitesh123]

U should make it as 1 and try.
After reboot try making it zero.

Also there is one entry in build.prop for tether set to 0
Net.tethering.on change that and try .

Don't forget to keep backup

I've tried different values but still a no go. I'm on the latest version of kitkat 4.4.2 with the recent update. I have tried with odex and deodexed roms

Got it to work, had to change build.prop also, thanks Hitesh123

Can I change device name and password to whatever I want, or leave it open?

 

[Dslack420]

Me to it acts like its going to work then says cant connect to data services i went from zero to ten in settings w a reboot at every change

 

[hitesh123]

If nothing is working will suggest to save min and other ota data and flash stock again.
I have link for one click restore .
If any one wants let me know

Thanks

 

[Zenwafer]

Working great now

Thanks much

 

[SuperR]

Turns out the only thing needed is changing the following line in build.prop

ro.mot.tether_dun_required=1

to

ro.mot.tether_dun_required=0

Save and reboot. No need to change db files with a paid app

 

[Dslack420]

Yup tis the only value that needs set i changed the other back to 3 and it still works flawless

Here is a flashable that makes the change in build.prop.
falcon_boost_hotspot_fix_2.zip

edit: I redid this flashable so it will work with any version of the stock rom. It no longer replaces build.prop, instead it edits the line in place. If the line does not exist (ie. custom roms, etc.), no change will be made. This will avoid problems if someone flashes it on a custom rom without knowing it is unnecessary.

Kool thanks

Hey I'm still a novice to this type of thing

 

[Irish_warlock]

Here is a flashable that makes the change in build.prop. It is for KXB20.9-1.10-1.18-1.1 updated devices only.

falcon_boost_hotspot_fix.zip

I downloaded the flashable how do I use it. Do I still need to root the phone first or just run this.

Your device needs to have CWM or another custom recovery installed in order to flash it.
