T-mobile Tether Nexus 6 topic

I had a hard time trying to get my tether to work through phone data instead of hotspot data but I finally was able to do it. I found information through the forum but nothing consolidating everything into one post. Some post came from the Flex group, some form Nexus 5 and other sites for info but I did the setup on my phone and it work!!


Must Have (these are the apps I used):

1. You need to be rooted.


2. SQLite Editor


3. Smanager

Things to do:

1. You will need to edit your APN


2. Edit your build.prop


3. Global settings

Editing your APN:

1. Go to your Settings>MORE>Cellular Networks>Access Point Names


2. Create a new APN that matches the Original T-Mobile GPRS


3. Make the changes to match like the pictures attached.


4. (Known changes made were adding dun to the APN type)

Editing your build.prop:

1. open SManager


2. go to System>build.prop


3. open the file as text and add the following to bottom of the file


4. net.tethering.noprovisioning=true


5. Save the file

Editing the Global:

1. Open SQLite Editor


2. Click on the Files tab


3. navigate to the following directory


4. Data>data >com. Android. Provider. Setings.db>Global


5. Look for the following entries. If the entry is not listed, add it to the file


6. package_verifier_enable =0


7. tether_dun_required =0

That should be it. Let me know if you have any questions.
