Hi devs!
Back in the NOTE days I found out that in order to get the native built-in Android WIFI hotspot working WITHOUT the need to pay extra for it, all you need to do is change one line of code in the framework-res.apk.
So I'm calling on all of you to hopefully adopt this for all of your excellent custom ROMs and thereby make the extra tether apps obsolete...
In framework-res decompiled directory tree go to res/values/arrays.xml and change:
to
This completely bypasses any wifi hotspot entitlement checks and lets you activate the built-in AP with no error message!
