⚠️ Experimental / device-specific

Tested only on:

  • Lenovo Idea Tab Pro
  • ZUXOS 1.5.10.060 (Android 16)
  • China ROM manually converted to global

Other Lenovo devices / firmware versions may behave differently.

Use at your own risk.

👥 Who is this for

  • Lenovo tablet users on ZUI / ZUXOS
  • Users whose hotspot is disabled on global ROMs
  • Rooted users using LSPosed

❓ Why this exists

Some Lenovo global ROMs disable hotspot functionality even when hardware support exists.
This module bypasses those OEM restrictions and re-enables hotspot where the UI and backend code still exist.

🔧 Features

  • Forces the Hotspot Quick Settings tile to always be available.
  • Re-enables the Hotspot / Tethering settings page (when present in the ROM).
  • Works entirely via LSPosed hooks.
  • No smali edits or system file patching required.

❌ What this does NOT do

  • Does not enable hotspot if the required hardware or kernel support is missing.
  • Does not recreate Settings pages that were fully removed from the ROM.
  • Does not bypass carrier restrictions.
  • Does not guarantee compatibility on all Lenovo devices or firmware versions.

⚙️ How it works (technical)

For developers and power users

  • Hooks com.android.systemui.qs.tiles.HotspotTile
    → Overrides the availability check to always return true.

  • Hooks com.lenovo.common.utils.LenovoUtils.isSupportTether(android.content.Context)
    → Forces tethering support to true, bypassing OEM region / config checks.

  • Uses classic Xposed API:

compileOnly "de.robv.android.xposed:api:82"

✔ Runs fully under LSPosed
✔ No system partition changes

✅ Requirements

  • Rooted Android device
  • LSPosed (or compatible Xposed implementation)
  • Lenovo ZUI / ZUXOS-based ROM where hotspot is disabled artificially but still present in SystemUI/Settings

🚀 Installation

  1. Download the latest APK from the Releases page.
  2. Install the APK like a normal app.
  3. Open LSPosed.
  4. In Modules, enable ZUI Hotspot Fix.
  5. In Scopes, enable:
    • com.android.systemui
    • com.android.settings
  6. Reboot the device.

✅ Expected behavior

After successful installation and reboot:

  • The Hotspot tile should appear in Quick Settings (or become selectable in the tile editor).
  • The Tethering / Hotspot page should be visible in Settings (if your ROM still includes that UI).

⚠️ Known limitations

  • Tested only on Lenovo Idea Tab Pro, ZUXOS 1.5.10.060 (Android 16), China → global conversion.
  • Other devices / ROMs may:
    • Use different class or method names.
    • Include additional OEM region or feature checks.
  • Future firmware updates may change SystemUI or Settings internals and break the hooks.

This module cannot restore features whose UI and code have been fully removed from the ROM.

🛠️ Troubleshooting

Module not visible in LSPosed

  • Check that the app is installed.
  • Ensure xposedmodule and xposedminversion meta-data are present in AndroidManifest.xml.
  • Reinstall the module if needed.

Hotspot tile still missing

  • Confirm com.android.systemui is enabled in the module scope.
  • Open LSPosed logs and look for HotspotFix / ZuiHotspotFix messages to confirm hooks ran.

Settings page still hidden

  • Confirm com.android.settings is enabled in the module scope.
  • Some ROMs remove the Settings UI entirely; this module cannot recreate deleted screens.

🔐 Safety

  • No system files or partitions are modified.
  • All changes happen at runtime in app processes via LSPosed hooks.
  • Uninstalling the module and rebooting restores stock behavior.

This is still a root-level modification — use it responsibly.

  • Lenovo / ZUXOS firmware as the base system.
