I know. well as for u ur guide its has been the most effective one i hav the tmobile tethering.. Clean now i hav to wrk on the mpcs. This wll be a challenge cus mpcs in the disable.sh upsale n many other apps are not showing... So im going file per file, folder by folder to find out which one attach hotspot.. N giv permission to driver to stay alive.. Cust w/many tethering apps or widget it runs but kills it within seconds. So let see what happens.
 
Thanx bro.. U are very helpful... I know we can squeeze this lemons till the pulp to get the most juice from it.. Any q,??? Don't hesitate to ask...

After re-flashing my phone after bricking it, my guide was useless.
Clearly my guide is missing some key step.
I have a awful memory and no idea which step it is missing.

Ur guide still there... If its does not wrk try the ine for mpcs... Remember no bj tether n that after starting the wifi tether and pop up in computer n u connect, give few seconds to comp to identify router conection wll show in app allow access. N give seconds to go.. U need user agent switcher.. I use IE9 n it goes through... I wll try to make a vid n post on Utube.. As part of the guide.
 
Well I tried but I cant seem to get it to tether correctly. Followed all the steps, My computer picks up the ssid and connects just no internet. My upload speed goes up when I attempt to browse but that's about it. Btw I'm using the Metro F3.

i coud get u exactly which files is the im talking about

i tried many of the way to mask the driver of the wifi...but no success... i tried same process in all 3 versions n they all wrked differently.. i thnk it has to be how tree is put together.
 
It would be really nice if you could post in something more closely resembling English. I try and read them but it's Really tedious.

If you feel what you have to say is important, why do you make us decode it first?

How to WIFI tether on the LG Optimus F3 (t-mobile version)

1. Root your LG Optimus F3
a. Enable USB debugging on your phone.
b. Download motochopper.
c. Extract motochopper.zip
d. Run run.bat(for windows users) or run.sh(for linux be sure to chmod 755)
d.1 If you have a tether app open in windows CLOSE IT!

2. Install Root Browser on your LG Optimus F3
3. Run /system/etc/disable_tmus_vendor_apks.sh (I suspect you can find a similar disable script for other carriers in the same location with the same disable_ prefix.)
a. Open Root Browser.
b. Allow root browser to get busybox/etc. for you
c. Open system
d. Open etc
e. Tap disable_tmus_vendor_apks.sh
f. Run it!

4.1 Install JB WiFi Tether on your LG Optimus F3

4.2 OPTIONAL Go into your stock wifi tether app and configure your wifi hotspot settings.

5. Run JB WiFi Tether.

You should now have upsell free wifi tethering.

I have done all of these things (TMo LG Optimus F3) but unfortunately I can't seem to get it to work. Basically when I click on the jTether icon I see the "Turning WiFi AP on" screen. Then the stock Mobile HotSpot application starts up. When I try to connect my laptop to the hotspot access point, I can only surf the T-Mobile web site :confused:

I wonder if I am doing something wrong?
