So I have successfully upgraded OTA to 6.0.1 and rooted.
I'd like a relatively easy way to turn hot spot on and off without having to go through at least three clicks (and that's if I put the Settings icon on the home screen; otherwise it's four).
The old tried-and-true method of editing the Settings DB with SQLite no longer works. I thought I'd just give the new System UI Tuner a try, but it would appear that Sprint/Samsung have locked this out. The two known methods to enable it (long press on the gear icon after pulling down the window shade, or going to Developer Options under settings) are not available on the Sprint S5. I can see the System UI Tuner package intact on the phone, but there's no way, as far as I can tell, to launch it.
For that matter, Sprint seems to have removed all the Settings widgets except "Flashlight," so you can't even put a setting widget on the home screen to get you close.
If anyone has figured out how to get into the UI Tuner, or restore the locked Settings widgets, please let me know.
Before anyone suggests it, yes, I am aware that there is a root app to enable/disable the hot spot on the market, and I have the APK for it. I removed it because it runs continuously, even when not using the hot spot, generating "granted root access" popups at inopportune times. Besides, I'd kinda like to see what else is in the UI Tuner to tweak.
Thanks.
