Is there a way to force my stupid Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra (Not subsidy locked to my knowledge) to tether? I foolishly upgraded my my OG unlimited data plan to the new cheapest 5G unlimited data plan and now I can't tether anymore. It's obviously the phone asking permission from ATT.

Does your plan include tethering (I don’t know ATT’s plans) ? Some of the cheaper carrier plans legit don’t include tethering, and if so the answer is upgrade your plan.

Oh it absolutely doesn't, but neither did my previous plan. I was hoping there was a dumb android app way. Otherwise - do you have to use a non-att firmware?

No idea other than they’re way better at blocking it on the newer plans.

Does anyone here have FirstNet? I get a pretty solid discount at work but T Mobile works well enough. I'm curious what the differences are between it and standard AT&T.
