General :: Enable Tethering On Unlocked Rooted Pantech Flex With Jelly Bean 4.1.2

I have Pantech Flex P8010. I was rooted on ICS 4.0.4 and then I installed Jelly Bean Update by restoring rooted backup of Jelly Bean 4.1.2 uploaded by Zapper_Master.

After Jelly Bean I got smooth working phone. But, as other I had same issue of Wifi not working and automatic 2x Reboots after atleast gap of 6-7 hours. (I was knowing it before I installed update as others who updated by restoring zip also faced same issue. But, It was ok for me as I like Jelly Bean the most.)

But, there was way to enable native wifi tethering on this lovely phone on ICS. [URL] ......

And I followed same steps (After Installing SQLite Editor, I just backed up database & changed value from settings.db secure table on actual database.)

Line 1. softap_free_supported
Line 2. softap_entitlement_interval

Change Line 1′s value to 1 in the SQL editor. Change Line 2′s value to 0 in the SQL editor save and close or just close depending on the editor.

SUPPER IMPORTANT if the file permissions on settings.db are not rw-rw-rw make them so in your file explorer.

There was a risk of bricking phone as there is no recovery available for Jelly Bean.

I just wanted to let others know that above method also works on Jelly Bean. But, USE AT YOUR OWN RISK! I will not be responsible if anything goes wrong & you brick your lovely flex.
