[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kalel33:
Dunno, maybe because every other carrier did it first and they decided to join in the on the action. The terms and conditions have always stated that tethering was not allowed and they just turned a blind eye to it, but now they are starting to enforce it. When you signed up with T-mobile you agreed to the terms and conditions, so they can say that it was always in there and they tell you to read the T&C and give you a booklet of it in each phone.

What they are saying is that you are paying for data on your phone, not for other devices. They consider it cell phone data, not cell phone data plus whatever else you can hook up to it. Right or wrong, all the carriers are doing it and T-mobile has the cheapest tethering plan(Sprint is $30, Verizon and AT&T both charge $20 and you only get 2GB worth of tethering data on each, with T-mobile being $14.99). Also, if everyone hooked up their phones to their computers then it'd bring the network to a crawl, so they're making money while keep a flood of people from tethering and hurting the network.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smooth3d:
I understand what you are saying. But if T-mobile really did not want people to tether they would not allow people to do it in the first place. I know several people who tether month after month and there is no extra charge on the bill. Plus my phone is rooted and running a custom rom, so they couldn't stop me anyways, lol
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kalel33:
I've had one call come in with a guy having a rooted phone and using PDAnet and he was still caught. They seem to be packet sniffing, so no matter what rom or app your using then you're still sending out the same data packets.

T-mobile is not AT&T, yet, in that they won't just put the tethering feature on your bill without your consent like AT&T does. T-mobile will just block any data that is coming from a browser that is not a phone browser.

A quick search shows a few people who were rooted, running non-stock roms, and still being caught.

Hi all,

I have had this XDA 2i for a quite a few years now and I am now on pay & go 02 and at home we have BT with free wi-fi. I know you all know what I am going to say and belive me I have tried and tried to get this thing to do what I want but it's fighting back all the time. I require a very kind person to help me out re up grading my windows 2003 and helping me connect to my BT home hub. I have read all the replies over and over before posting this and I just cannot seem to get this to work. I have managed to get the wi-fi to come on and if found BTfon & BTopenzone but any further that that I keep hitting the brick wall. I am not all thick but I did by a Wi-Fi card just incase the internal one was u/s but I could not get that to work either. Please be gentle with me, since I got this fone I am now nine years older and less able to deal with all the tech terms. Thanks so much if you elect to come to my aid.

NexusSHacks is still breaking phones? :banghead: Well, at least it's not still the top Google result for "root nexus.". The good news is your phone is not bricked. It just needs a working boot.img. If you're on Ice Cream Sandwich, this one should do nicely. If you do not yet have clockworkmod recovery installed, you can extract the boot.img and flash it the same way you flashed rootboot.img. (Make sure you put in the same folder as fastboot.)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] NickPDX:
Does anybody know how I should go about getting the Gameloft website to recognize my phone as an Android phone so I can get some games? I had been using an old version of Ultimate Droid and it recognized it as a Desire and the games would download and work perfectly. I now have updated to UD 3.3 and it recognizes my phone as an HTC Leo / HD 2.

The APK's that I had downloaded before now also don't all work, I wondered if it was because of this being a Gingerbread based rom. Any thoughts?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rosser725:
When downloading a gingerbread kernel (in my case Tiamat), I noticed that there are two different ones, the regular one and one with "SBC". What is that? Will it help performance, battery life, etc?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aweaver33:
SBC kernels add trickle charging to the battery, which some say give a fuller charge and others say will damage your battery. Personally, I don't see the point in risking it.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Marcismo55:
I also read that SBC may cause damage to your battery, however, over a long period of time. I don't plan on keeping my phone for 2-3 years so I would go ahead and try it.

I haven't read any reports from anyone on this forum stating SBC damaged their battery.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bamabruin:
I am having an issue with the Voice Dialer when used with a headset with inline mic. A long press of the button will activate voice dialer, but it won't move past 'Starting Up' (see image).

It seems similar to other issues people have had with the Bluetooth Dialer.

Has anyone else experienced a similar issue?

Is there an application I can replace the native Voice Dialer with that will have better functionality?

Or should I just not worry about it, and hope cm7 will fix everything
[T-Mobile LG G2x] BarryH_GEG:
Yes, and it's for a stupid reason. LG didn't load the voice-to-text software in the ROM. You have to do it manually. Go to: Settings>Voice Input and Output>Text-to-speech settings and select "install voice data."
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bamabruin:
Voice data has already been installed. Does voice dialer work for you with a wired headset?

Maybe I need to uninstall then reinstall the voice data?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] BarryH_GEG:
I've only used it over Bluetooth and it seems to work fine.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] bamabruin:

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vaccdroid:
A question. I have to run the Partition option (2048 and 0), Fix Permissions using Clockwork Mod But after I make the changes I need to change the rom to stock rom 3588 to get rid of CWM. Will these settings stay or does the updateing to new roms change it once you remove CWM?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tekrhino:
The partition will remain. No worries.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vaccdroid:
The permissions to? thats my real issue. I have the force cloe issue and it only goes away when I go into CWM and set the permissions ? and again thanks.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tekrhino:
I'm not sure about fix permissions, especially if you flash a different ROM afterwards.

I'm thinking if you flash a new ROM, all the settings (Including Fix Perms) will be nulled because you now have a different ROM in place of the one that you ran FIX PERM on..

BUT the Partitioning the SDCard has nothing to do with fixing permissions.

Partitioning is a very low level operation where as Fixing permissions will deal with the ROMs Systems Data and Apps and Downloaded Data and Apps that are in place.

The problem is the post is incomplete.

To ensure you have the most accurate reading available (which I accept may not be 100% accurate) you must disconnect the phone from all power sources when it's booting.

The comment about in the rebooting change above indicates the OP doesn't realise this.

It's a workaround but it eliminates all of the big jumps (up or down) people experience when rebooting.

[Nexus One General] GldRush98:
Highly unlikely. The Nexus One is currently Google's official developer phone. That probably won't be changing before the next Android release.
[Nexus One General] Putzy:
I can see it getting Ice Cream Sandwich or whatever it's being called, and then that'll be it. I can see future versions will be dual-core phones only.
[Nexus One General] galaxys:

[Nexus One General] RogerPodacter:
i think it will get one more major update, at least. probably nothign after that. who knows though...its been a miracle little phone thus far.
[Nexus One General] Made2Last:
The next Nexus will probably take over as the developer phone. Dual Core is the wave of the future. Speculation of course. Who really knows at this point. We are far from another Nexus.
[Nexus One General] bourne-nolonger:
do you think that there could come an update that the Nexus One just couldn't run for performance reasons?
[Nexus One General] RogerPodacter:
no not at all. if google wanted to optimize android to be better, the nexus one could handle it. look at windows phone 7 devices. microsoft requires all WP7 devices to have the same hardware cpu and GPU as what the nexus one has, qualcom first gen cpu with adreno 200 GPU, and WP7 devices are the smoothest and fastest UI ever done. microsoft just optimized the graphics with great drivers etc.

so the nexus one is still capable, but whether google will ever optimize, doubt it.

and no i dont think they will make android UI such that its so graphics heavy that only dual core phones can use it. not for couple years at least from now.
[Nexus One General] peliROJO:
The next Nexus will be released later this year and the N1 will not receive another timely update.
[Nexus One General] Jack_R1:
Another thread of guesswork.

Please state your official sources - or write "I guess that ...".

On the other hand, the OP is to blame - I don't recall we have official Google speaker on the forum that can answer this question reliably, and everything else will be guesswork until the next update is officially affirmed/declined.
[Nexus One General] Atento:
I think that time is over for our Nexus One. Unfortunately :-(

I think that Gingerbread was the last update that we received.
[Nexus One General] Dirk:
We may stop getting 'official' updates eventually but that doesn't mean we won't get them at all. As long as we have the likes of Cyanogen developing for the phone we'll still get updates of the custom variety.

Most people will have moved on to other devices by then anyway.
[Nexus One General] nephroid:
I do not know but what was the last official update the G1 got? I can recall it going beyond the official updates (with custom ROMs of course).

The crappy parts will that it won't be able to do video chat, NFC (w/o an microSD NFC card) and won't be able to handle anything dual-core specific. Other than that the phone is a beast and was a complete monster in January 2010.
[Nexus One General] Made2Last:

[Android Apps and Games] praetorian droid:
Well, here is my first published app. Meet...

​

Sound Box

It reacts on a shaking and makes your phone act as a bell, drum, rattle, wind chimes and other such a stuff. It's a toy for fun. Some users noted that children also love it. :)

So shake your phone, have fun!

The goal

Actually the initial idea came from my friend. She said: it would be cool if you'll shake your phone and it will sound like a junk in a metal box or like a broken device. Totally broken. :) Later me and my friends came up with an invention to add a bell, maracas and more. When I started, the main goal was to make an app that authentically behave like a rattle, a bell, etc. I tried to get a realistic reaction to the phone shaking. Among other things, different sounds for different strength of shaking - just like real things. Hope I've succeeded.

Variations

There are two versions: lite and full. Lite version contains limited set of sound themes. For now there are small bell, darbuka and "digital" sound (simple sine harmonics). Full one is a set of about 20 sound themes. There are, in addition to lite ones, metal and bamboo wind chimes, maracas, rattlesnake, jingle bells, tin can with junk (yeah that junk from the initial idea) and much more. For now full version is paid.

Requirements

- Android 1.5+.

- No additional permissions required.

Notes

The application locks most of the buttons by default. You could switch it off: see Menu -> Settings for details!
