Yeah, Knox can sometimes interfere with root related actions and give you annoying notifications about "unauthorized actions" that it has detected. As far as carrierIQ goes, I don't like my service provider having a back door into my phone that let's them snoop.
 
There's one bundled into AOKP, dfuse is doing a great job of adding governors
EDIT: Ninja'd >.>

No I don't. Try the thread "Avant Free Tethering" it will show you how to setup WiFi Tether Router which will enable hotspot and hide your tethering usage.
 
I have tried the method mentioned in the above thread. However, the method does not support 5ghz hotspot.
Also, the speeds are not as fast as on the phone.
 
Nvm. I flashed it and it seemed the system apps that were suppose to be removed are still there even thoe in recovery it says complete. Do I redownload or something? How do I ch exk if it disabled Knox or not since the debloater didn't work

Its been downloaded 431 times and this is the first time anyone has had a problem so I'd be inclined to say that you did something wrong.
 
Sorry I probably did. In the stock rom all I did is go into TWRP recovery then went and flashed the debloater. Did I skip something? Does it only work in a factory reset phone? ( I did make a backup just in case) and drop box' Google drive and a lot of the carrier apps were still there.

Did you flash anything else before you rebooted your phone?
 
Thank know you!! I factory reset it and just on case (I had messed a lot with the file system ) I flashed the stock metro rom and then root like you did. After installing twrp I flashed the debloater and it worked there is time awesome. I have no idea why it didn't work before because that's the only file I had flashed that time. But thanks any way its awesome not having to guess which are important.
