This is only for that plan. others are still at 5gb, mine personally is truly unlimited as they don't even count my data, it is always at 0.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kawika:
:mad:dude i hope thats not true! i'm calling tmo tonite! i was under the impression that at&t didnt throttle cuz they just cut you off at a certain point but they allowed you to pay for overages 1GB at a time. I'm down with that but i want to keep my limit at 5GB and pay for maybe 1 or 2GB's at most. i think i could be around there with normal use(6-7GB) I'm totally NOT down with a 2GB cap and paying for 4-5GB overages!:mad:
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CrazyCharlie:
If you have an older plan and it says unlimited, than it's unlimited. You're plan would specifically say 2 or 5GB if there was a limit. The newer plans are all like that. Glad I got mine a year ago.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kawika:
not true, tmobile pushes "unlimited" plans only. They dont mention the cap limit cuz they say technically you still get unlimited access to the web they just throttle your speed down. for example i'm on an "unlimited" plan but i get throttled at 5GB. even in my account app it says unlimited next to my data count but its not brother cuz i get throttled. gimme a min i'll post a screrenshot of it:)

it's for their new 79.99 unlimited plan. if you read the small print you will find that it's only good for 2G at full speed. :(

I will stay with my old plan.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nhakosuka:
Didn't they cancel one of their new plans right on launch day?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] reddragon72:
See yours is showing a count. Mine, even on t-mobile.com, shows that but always says 0% (0 used). And that is on all three of my phones. it is rather odd that my account never keeps track of the data.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brian_v3ntura:
not entirely true...my grandfathered data plan is still called G1 data plan and I still receive the 5GB throttle since its introduction on oct 17 2010
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CrazyCharlie:
I don't have internet access at my house. I use my phone as a wifi hot spot for my laptop and my X Box. I have no idea how much data I'm actually using but it is many, many gigabytes, but I have yet to be throttled. I should also say I'm on a flexpay plan. Maybe that has something to do with it.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oka1:
From the additional reading I did, this is for all new plans going forward, not existing plans. That is how it is worded NOW............. wait 6 months we will see if it actually stays that way or if it is just another misdirect from the company.

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] klaiii:
I recently ran across the NetTalk app in the market. It seems like it could be a useful app (especially with our BT capabilities), but every time I attempt to make a call, the app force closes on me. It actually compleats the call to my cell, and then immediate FC.

Has anyone else been able to successfully use this app? Or is there something I could try to get the app not to FC?

I'm running CM7 nightly 39 with Dalingrin's OC kernal.

Thanks in advance and thank you to the CyanogenMod Encore Dev team.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] klaiii:
Bump.

So, has anyone had any luck??
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] animatechnica:
the nook does not currently support voice/mic so the app is useless at the moment
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] barczakmark:
i tried this out and it does indeed make a call! It seems like this could become very useful to us. It works now on the motorola xoom according to droid-life.com so perhaps it might work with the nook on honeycomb once AOSP is out? we can always hope! but it does seem to be rather important to get calls working over wifi!
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] animatechnica:
As I said currently no mic on the nook so regardless of the app working you can't talk
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wolfyx:
Not sure about the nook but I have been using this app on my win mo 6.5 , iphone and android and it works brilliant.

Sometimes it does have connectivity issues like all apps, but close and reopen and all is good. Hey a little bit of trouble is worth when it's completely free.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] klaiii:
The fact that it actually made a call is what got me excited to begin with, but after some research and reading around the xda nook color forums, I realized that it didn't have mic/voice input drivers as animatechnica pointed out...

Do we know if/when that might be a possibility?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dowmace:
Can we not pair to a bt headset and make calls that way?
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] klaiii:
Although a by headset will pair, without a mic/voice input driver, it will only play audio out of it. Same with any other computer. If one of the awesome devs on here were able to create one, this little "tablet" of ours wouldn't be lacking much of anything...
[HTC Vox] redolf:
What to choose between windows mobile 6.1 and windows mobile6.5?Now i have windows mobile 6.5 but who works faster?
[HTC Vox] Hakim Rahman:
Windows mobile 6.1 v1 by Dr.Gonzo
[HTC Vox] tobbbie:
There are several for the VOX and they are all worth it - give them a try. The perceived speed depends on your personal application use. Depending on your taste you may prefer one over the other. The ROMs from frauhottelmann are multi-language, so if you need a non-English GUI ROM you should look there.

Mind that the first boot takes much(!) longer than subsequent boots (device onboard cold-boot configuration needs to run), so don't take that as a sign of speed.

hi all,

My friend owns an HTC Desire HD... i use an HTC HD2 which runs on android 2.3 .....

my question is how can i locate my friend through my phone! we both use the same OS! i have full access of my friends phone!

i tired to setup and HTC sense account and tried to locate him through htcsense.com ... it didn't work ! it says unknown location! but every other thing works in htcsense like call forwarding,msg forwarding, lock etc except location!

i have got full access to my friends phone! how can i continues locate him in the city????

is there any other way that we both can share our location without known to each other!

is there any other app???? like friend finder????

help!

What you want is GirlfriendSpyStalkEX. You will be able to see her location, speed and what perfume she is wearing. You can even call on CIA satellite imagery to actually see what she's up to. All without her knowing. I mean, she is on the same OS as you, how dare she believe in privacy.

I also recommend calling Police. You can put an end to this now by handing yourself in.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rlridgeway:
I am familar with GPS but how do I use geotagged photos? I understand geotagged photos can be used in Google Earth and other mapping software. Can these software use the embedded geotagged information?

Questions about the Atrix:

Will photos be geotagged properly when taken out of cell coverage? When the tag option in the camera is selected will the photo be geotagged properly with only the 'Use GPS satellites" set in Location and security? Does the "Use wireless networks" option also need to be selected?

Is there a good site describing how to use geotagged photos? I have searched but was unable to find an indepth but simple guide to using getagged photos.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheArtfulPenguin:
I've had the G-tab for two weeks and always use something for a while before I ask questions. It looks like at least one of the questions, icon spacing is answered elsewhere but since I am going to as a few questions I'll still include it here.

I'm using TNT-L 4.4 but guessing most of these are universal to Android.

1. The G-tab does lock after a while and I just slide the lock up and it unlocks but is there a place to tell it you want a password. Also when it boots up I'd like a password on it.

2. I know it does multi-tasking but when I am in certain apps, browser and others, I have to either back out of it, or hit the home and when I go back the app starts over again. I thought you could just slide from screen to screen.

3. On the home screen when I put icons on the home screen only four across and and three high. Should be able to get at least 6 or 7 wide and 4 or 5 high. What's up with that?? Can you set icon spacing on the home screen?

4. A lot of devices you can have information displayed when it is locked like your name/phone number in case it is lost/found they know who's it is. Anything to do that?

5. I've seen a number of posts about screen protectors and most are related to fingerprints. I'm mostly wanting to get rid of glare. What is the best Anti-glare screen protector?

6. Where can I get free chocolate? Always a good question.

Thanks.

p.s. This is a great resource!
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tcrews:
TNT-L is based off the stock ROM, I do not believe setting a lock-screen code is available. Other ROMs may/may not offer this choice. CM7 and those built from the CM7 base do.

No, no sliding from screen to screen as apps are designed to be inclusive to their own layout. Hold HOME to switch between apps. Don't press it, hold it....a screen will pop up with the last few used apps. Selecting it will take you right back to where you were in the app.

Not with the stock one. Launcher Pro, ADWLauncher, VTLLauncher will allow you to increase the columns and rows. I use an 8x8 grid that fits nicely without chopping off the text of the icons.

Yes, though off the top of my head I don't recall. Plenty of app/widgets that will overlay/use on top of the lockscreen.

No answer for you there...I hate screen protectors.

Looking for the answer myself.

Regarding screen lock in TNT

I'm not sure if this will work in 4.4. I switched to Vegan a while back to get EAP functionality, so I haven't had to check. However, I did figure out how to do this a while back on TNTLite 5. It requires Launcher Pro (or a launcher with similar functionality).

I currently use it and I like it but I really wish I didn't pay 15 bucks for it. It beter smd with a new update or I will be dissapointed. I figured that it's so new it still will advance with future updates because in the couple weeks I've had it, its updated about 3 times. I think for 5 bucks it would be great but I can't help but feel that I wasted 15 bucks on a launcher, till I get a 3d phone that can actually take advantage of the 3d capabilities. In conclusion, I would wait for a price drop or something because it's nice but not worth 15 bucks.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rugedraw:
Wouldn't it have to have been designed with autostereoscopy in mind in order for it to be 3D on the upcoming 3D phones? Considering there are no phones with this capability out right now, I doubt that they incorporated the 3D technology needed into the software now. Even with the Evo 3D, it would look exactly as it does on your phone now.

Anyone that knows more about this can feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] ajaxguy:
I have an unlocked milestone ( telus originally) that i bought off kijiji, and he said it was rooted, but when i open rom manager said that it is not.

How can i tell if it is? Its running super choppy and want it sped up! It has 2.2.1 on it currently!
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] skadude66:
You can download this app: http://www.appbrain.com/app/android-terminal-emulator/jackpal.androidterm

And then type

su (hit enter)

From here it might pop up with a superuser access request, that would say that you have root access.

If not, then follow by typing whoami. If it says root, then you have root access.

Hope that helps.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] ajaxguy:
root?

I downloaded that and typed in su and then hot enter and i get access denied!

Typed in the whoami one as well and same thing.

So does that mean it has definately not been rooted?

Also, if not then what would be the best way to go about rooting? If it has 2.2.1 then that is more then likely just the regualar telus froyo update right?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] skadude66:
Yeah, that means it probably isn't rooted.

There are various ways to root the phone. I used Universal Androot, but you can also just flash the vulnerable recovery SBF via RSD Lite, load Androidiani Open Recovery onto your phone and then boot into recovery, and there will be an option to root the phone that way.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=983516
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] ajaxguy:
I did the sbf thing with my other milestone and i lost my gps features.

I heard the the universal androot is pretty easy though. I just want to root it so i can put milestone overclock on it to speed it up.

how easy did you find universal androot, and if you dont mind the steps to do this?

Any other tips and tricks to speed it up?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] skadude66:
I found the apk on androidforums.com. It's called Universal Androot v1.6.2 beta 5.

What you can do is run zeppelin's scripts to supercharge your phone.

I have heard that Milestone Overclock is actually quite dangerous because of not changing the proper vsel's

My reccommendation is to root the phone, then install a custom ROM, most already include an O/C(FroyoMod is 900MHz, CM7 is 1GHz)

I just modified the files directly using Root Explorer.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] ajaxguy:
I have have read that 800mhz is about right for the overclock.

What ROM would you suggest to use with it that will also have all the features still?
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] skadude66:
Right now, I think that CM7 is one of the most stable and it's also updated fairly frequently.

What you want to do to before you apply the update is to download TitaniumBackup and backup all apps with data.

Once you flashed the vulnerable recovery, you want to install AOR.

Before you flash CM7, you want to create a Nandroid backup. It's all specified in the thread I posted.

After that, place CM7 AND the Google Apps update into OpenRecovery/Updates. Boot into AOR (Power+x, see the Moto M and hold camera+volume up button) select apply update. You will now you are in AOR when you see the Android Andy dressed up as Mario, if not, then select apply update.zip. Select wipe dalvik cache, wipe cache partition and select Wipe data/Factory Reset. Select Apply Update, choose CM7. Once that's done, wipe dalvik and cache partition again. Apply update again and then choose the Google Apps. When that completes, wipe dalvik and cache partition again.

Select change baseband from AOR Main Menu, and choose whichever one you want. In your case it will probably be Telus.zip.

If you followed those steps you should be good.
