Root [Virgin Mobile/Sprint] Need more options for tethering!

Well I had to reset my F3 & now I've got the dreaded tethering block pop-up from Virgin Mobile. I used the two wifi apps for tethering (can't think of names) & of course they're now blocked. The netmgr app does not work for me because it's only a limited connection. Are there any other apps that won't be blocked by vm I could use???
 
Try going into playstore and searching for robaho.
Should pop up wifi tethering app.
I do beleive you have to buy it but it worked for me after i updated the phone and i was using 2 apps to get internet from my cell phone onto my computer.
This app will no longer need these 2 programs so uninstall them first as the program claims that old programs may mess with this new program.The program also claims it might have to be done on a clean install meaning if you installed wifi tethering apps in the past it may conflict with this if old programs did not fully erased from phone.
 
I would try installing the wifi tethering program from robaho before you reset phone since you said you did already.But your phone needs to be rooted first.Just look at the forum for saferoot if you have the version 6 update on your phone.
 
I reset my phone, it was previously rooted with motochopper but after I reset I rooted with saferoot (much easier). I installed the robaho tether app & it works okay after changing ssid & password. It's a little slower than the other apps but does the job for now.
