I found a version of wireless tether from mid 2010 on the google code page and it finally works...

Thanks everyone for your help.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] setexascustoms:
I'm using version 2.0.7 and it's absolutely flawless. We just moved and haven't gotten internet set up yet and it's all I use, I've put a couple of gigs through it in a day without a single issue running my laptop and PS3. I was running SR4.0, now I'm on the gingerbread leak. No problem with either. Hope this helps.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] RyanTX:
Wow that's a lot of data! I think I'm on 2.02 now, its old. Lol
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] mark-in-dallas:
I'm running the Reemption ROm and have never been able to get Wireless Tether to work, but hacking the DNS settings for Mobile Hotspot works perfect.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] RyanTX:
I can't believe you haven't flashed a ROM in that long, or you flashed and went back. GB has a lot more to offer than froyo these days.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] mark-in-dallas:
Actually I just reflashed Redemption 2.4 today, cause my phone was starting to strange stuff.

I've tried a number of ROM's but keep coming back to Redemption. But, once there's a really stable GB ROM where everything works I'll probably make the move.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sroeseler:
i am thinking of upgrading from my hero to the nexus s (sprint)

what i want to know are real users thoughts..the lack of sd card(for pushing zips to and does having all apps on phone make it slugish), the rumored reception problems (from sprint blogs), and an idea of what roms are doing, i assume there is a root to unlock tethering?

anyone using rom manager/wireles tether/titanium backup or slide it keyboard, do u know if they are supported

thanks in advance for any input

ive had numerous devices. most recently went from the evo to the nexus s 4g. love it. really wanted that pure goog.

you will not be disappointed. i thought id miss out on the better cameras, sd slot but that is not the case. pics are great and i have not been in trouble without the sd slot. my $0.02

any reception issues, thats what really holding me back, i travel ALOT and not always big towns, i actually work cell tower site maintance
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wiley_11:
I would recommend going to Sprint.com and check out their coverage maps for the areas you will be frequenting. If your not in a high population area or on a main highway they pretty much suck. I carry a cheapo Trac phone for that reason. :D
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tailsthecat3:
seems the community agrees that the s4g has reception issues however, the crux of the problem is sprints network. i have never been able to not use my device because of the s4g reception issues.

don't trust coverage maps. they are used as a crutch by carriers to claim service in places there isn't any.(real world) not to mention real world results are not taken into consideration by devs constructing these maps. use the device and if it doesn't work for you, return it within thirty days.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sroeseler:
yeah i know how coverage maps work all to well, i know all about the bull **** marketing they ploy about their networks, i do work on it all, i know what is there and isnt... i choice sprint years ago because it is the only carrier that wehn i deployed in the military they would "pause" my contract till i returned home. they do have a strong network and roaming partners, ive been pretty happy with sprint in the south east US, i have service where most else fail.. though i have had to keep a pre paid att on my truck in the field as u said. thanks for the info, does anyone know about compatability with the mentioned apps
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] A_Guy71:
I upgraded from the Hero on launch day, and didn't even look back. They gave me $40 to trade in my [beat-to-hell, cracked screen] Hero, which was unexpected but appreciated. I have had 0 regrets after all the trouble I had with the Hero (Freezing, rebooting, slow, low storage space, etc). I always copied files to my Hero by mounting the SD card, it is no different with the NS. Also, I think Apps2SD is actually slower, because the transfer rate for phone storage is faster than SD storage. I get no worse reception than I did with the Hero; still pretty horrible where I sleep and where I work, but everywhere else seems to be good :P And with the supposed locked bootloader on the Evo3D, the NS4G still remains on top. Definitely the best phone I have had. I can understand the hesitation if you switch from a Thunderbolt/Atrix/iPhone to the Nexus S, they are comparable. But if you are still on the Hero, don't think twice...upgrade!!

EDIT: I had ASOProm on my Hero, and preferred it over CyanogenMod. Currently on stock ASOP with a custom kernel, OC'd to 1.4ghz.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ronnienyc:
Evo?

I have had them all (Hero, Evo, Optimus, Pre, etc...)

The Nexus is nice, and fast, but build quality does not compare with the Evo (which has great build quality.) Also the Evo has better connectivity (more reliable connections, faster throughput, etc.)

If you are not concerned with weight (Nexus 4.6oz vs. Evo 6 oz) I would wait for the Evo 3d in a few weeks time. In terms of size, the Nexus is longer, but more narrow than the Evo. The Nexus is slippery, so you will probably want a case, which really makes size comparable to a bare Evo (which has rubberized back so not as much need for a case IMO.)

(The only thing I like about the Nexus more than the current Evo is the higher contrast screen.) The current Evo 4G even has far better battery life in my experience.

IMO.
[XPERIA X8 General] EL_BELLACO:
Yah, i dont know why when u flash back to stock eclair, i cant download any game from market, even if market is update.

I flash my phone to w8 and nothing, its the same, cant download anything from market.

Only facebook, Advance ap kill, ect.

Cant download any videoplayer.

Cant download agry birds,ect, any game.

Sorry for my bad english.

Please help :(
[XPERIA X8 General] Graveir:
Ok, did you flash the newest build with SEUS, or did you just flash some tft with flashtool? Because in the latter you may have a wrong baseband - check if it ends with 015.

If all else fails - flash 1.6 generic, change SI number for your provider and reflash with SEUS.
[XPERIA X8 General] EL_BELLACO:
yah, my baseband is 015, and re-flash whit seus.
[Xoom General] StrifeSoldierVII:
Will DSPManager be ported over to work on Honeycomb or will there be a whole new release just for Honeycomb? I know the source is not out yet because Google is still polishing it up but I don't know if the source is needed or not since I am not a dev.

I have tried other equalizers and they work great to some extent on 3.1. All the ones I have tried either force close or shut down totally after a few minutes. If only DSPManager was here to save the day... he was always the best.
[Atrix 4G General] jsylvia007:
I have seen this issue described in more than one internet post.

If I change a contact on my atrix shortly after the phone will sync with Google and all changes are lost.

This is now much more than annoyance. Can anyone shed some light on this? From day one my phone has been synched with Google, and from what I can tell, this issue has always existed.

I just did a test with my xoom tablet, and the same thing happens, so it appears to be much more than an atrix problem.

To make the issue worse, I can't access Google contacts in EITHER browser on the matrix or the xoom. That means I can't modify ANY contacts from my devices.

Any help would be appreciated.
[Atrix 4G General] jsylvia007:
BUMP...

I can't be the ONLY person with this issue. Is everyone else just dealing with only being able to edit contacts from a desktop?

[Acer Iconia A500] dhruvmp:
Target was actually the retailer responsible for Amazon US supply of the Transformer. I think they have shown a real interest in selling people these tablets, which will hopefully expand the community even more.

I just flashed Cyanogenmod 7, and it is just Amazing! There is still one problem tough. Everytime i go to shutdown the phone, the phone simply restarts and never actually shutsdown completely. Any answers or fixes would be highly appreciated and wouldn't mind buying one of my fellow friends here on xda a beer or two.

I get the same thing. It's not actually loading anything, its basically asking you if you want to use the stock Sense launcher or the Launcher Pro launcher. Just pick one or the other and you'll see what the difference is. You should get that prompt every time you hit the home button, unless you tell it to remember your selection

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] silentsnow31802:
Depending on your rom there may be a setting in your messaging app that will have your times show when the person sent the message instead of when you received it. I set it to that once and it messed everything up. Try and see if maybe you have this option checked?

Clear the dalvik cache and the cache from recovery, and try again :)
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lsumarkb:
Sorry should have mentioned I did that also. Tried again. Same "insufficient storage" error.

And no i have plenty of storage so the error is bogus.

Thanks for all your help.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ceelos09:
As above, try booting into recovery, wipe dalvik and cache x3. If that doesn't work, try clearing the apps specific cache. If all else fails, try reflashing ur ROM.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wilsonhines:
Ok, this is my first day with this marvelous device. I installed Tweet caster, as it was my go to twitter app on my EVO. After I installed Tweet Comb and became fascinated by it, tweet caster on the xoom just doesn't carry too far.

Right now, both are giving me notifications and it's annoying, but I don't want to uninstall caster, either. Other than a reboot, what will fix this issue? Can't you simply exit an app? Do I need an app killer? I've been told app killers are unnecessary with Android, but on my EVO I use the app killer all the time.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bwcorvus:
I don't use either app, but check the settings. You should be able to turn off notifications. In settings, apps, manage apps though you can stop an app. DO NOT USE A TASK MANAGER.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rschenck:
I agree that task managers that automatically kill apps are no longer required by android. However, in order to close apps easily I use an app called Active Apps, since a lot of apps tend to linger in the background. Put the widget on your desktop and it will give you a running tally of how many apps are running and allow you to opt to quit one or all of them.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vidriera:
I don't know if this will be easier for you, but if you have to kill an app you can also find the app in the drawer and drag it onto the "i" , which will take you to the same spot as finding the app in "settings/applications/manage applications/" then finding the app.
[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wilsonhines:
I swear that thing really sounds like a app killer lol. I'll check it out. Thanks

I'm currently running Darky's 10.1 final and it's great, but I've heard a lot of people rave about CM7. Is there something that CM7 offers that makes it better than what Darky offers? I'd try it myself, but I'm really happy where my phone is now so I'd prefer other people's opinions first before I invest time into switching over. Thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rschenck:
If your most important feature is long battery life, or if you prefer to set your phone up once and then leave it as is....stick with darky's.

If you love tinkering and updating your phone regularly, want to be involved in a community effort, and prefer performance over battery life..come to cm7.

However, you never know till you try and it is very easy to flash back and forth now.

Does anyone know when iowa (yes Iowa) will get 4g? Specifically around des Moines?

Evo 4G

Cyanogenmod 7
[EVO 4G General] mschaffer:
Good luck & don't hold your breath

I live & work in areas (zip code 19426) that, on Sprint's coverage map, state that I should get in-building 4G service. What a joke. I don't know of anyone that can get 4G service in these areas other than intermittently outside---let alone inside a building. Not only that, but the 3G service is very weak in this area as well.

Either all of the 4G phones in the area are defective or Sprint is simply exaggerating. Either way, they say it's there and I cannot use it.
[EVO 4G General] vbetts:
It's the frequency clearwire's wimax network is on. I have no problems with 3g in my area(Toledo Ohio 43615) inside or out, but 4g is a different story completely.
[Milestone XT720 General] Frisbee6:
I have been trying forever to get ext3 working on my phone. I have 3 primary partitions; fat32, ext3 and linux swap. I used a card reader to create them via Partition wizard. Every software can see the 3 partitions, but my phone wont pick up the ext3. I tried wiping everything, reflashing dexter's rom, but i just cannot get it to work. I still see only 134mb on internal memory and it decreases as i install apps. I have even tried using link2sd but that gives me an error ("Mount script cannot be created"). Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
[Milestone XT720 General] leuleu9x:
Me too, I used Miui optimize rom and Steel v4 :((
[Milestone XT720 General] SickBeast:
That's strange. My EXT3 partition works both in Dexter's rom and in the Steelblue V4 rom.

I used gparted under Linux to do my partitioning. What I did was to resize the existing FAT32 partition and move it all the way to the right. Then I created a 2gb EXT3 partition all the way at the left. From there I created a 256mb swap partition in the middle, and I resized the FAT32 partition to take up the rest of the drive.
[Milestone XT720 General] SickBeast:
Did you guys remember to create an "app" folder on the EXT3 partition?

There are other folders that you can create to put the delvik cache on there among other things. I just don't remember off hand what you need to name them as.
[Milestone XT720 General] Frisbee6:
Ya there is a folder there called apps, but for some reason, nothing is moving into it. do i need to run some sort of a script? what i did:

1. flashed dexters 1.3

2. partitioned sd card using partition wizard with a fat32, a ext3 and a swap partition

3. booted up phone, internal memory shows 134mb, all apps installed go to internal memory.

4. terminal shows ext partition with 1100 mb free space

Am i missing a step?

Thanks in advance
[Milestone XT720 General] khalpowers:
not folder apps but app no s....if your ext3 working fine then shud have lost+found folder @/sd-ext.. create app folder using root explorer then reboot..now your app shud automatically move to sd-ext..
[Milestone XT720 General] h47e:
and create cache folder dalvik-cache
[Milestone XT720 General] Frisbee6:
Well i did what you guys said and now my apps are going to /sd-ext/app but im also losing space in the internal memory, and it does not show internal + ext3, it only shows internal. You guys have any idea whats happening?

Thanks for all your help guys.
[Milestone XT720 General] Mioze7Ae:
Are you using Dexter 1.3 without any patches?

[If so, probably your dalvik-cache is on /data? So... even though the apps are going into /sd-ext, the optimized versions of the dex are being stored on internal memory.]
[Milestone XT720 General] Frisbee6:
Yes... no patches, and dalvik is going to /data. Any idea whats up?
[Milestone XT720 General] Mioze7Ae:
That's just how Dexter's 1.3 works by default and one of the reasons I started the bugfix patches. If you apply bugfix patch 3 dalvik-cache will move to /cache automatically (you can optionally move it to /sd-ext by creating /sd-ext/dalvik-cache and rebooting).

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=995989

Or, if you don't want the patch, you can maybe use Androidiani OpenRecovery--it has a menu option to install an init script to move dalvik-cache to /cache. I haven't tested whether that works or not, though.
[Milestone XT720 General] Frisbee6:
After this patch, now the /sd-ext/app folder deletes itself after i restart the phone, tried a few times, same goes for davlik-cache. This is crazy every thing that could go wrong has gone wrong, thanks again for your help. You got any other suggestions?
[Milestone XT720 General] h47e:
I do not understand what you worry?
[Milestone XT720 General] Frisbee6:
It works now, thanks alot for all your help guys, really appreciate it!
[Milestone XT720 General] V_XT720:
How you did it?
[Milestone XT720 General] Frisbee6:
1. Formatted my card to the required partitions.

2. Flashed dexters rom followed by Mioze7Ae's bugfix 3.

3. Using root explorer I created /app folder.

4. Downloaded apps like there's no tomorrow.
[Milestone XT720 General] V_XT720:
I tried two different ways to partition my sd:

1) I used Gpatred and I did everything as described here - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6z1Tu9l8WNc&feature=related.

2) I used MiniTooLsPartition Wizard and Root explorer to create app and dalvik-cache folders.

In both cases, everything seems fine....until i install some apps. After restart the phone can not load the android. The phone only shows M logo and restart. If I remove the card then OS load. What I have to do? Thanks in advance.
[Milestone XT720 General] Frisbee6:
Are you partitioning your sd while its in the phone? Use a card reader if possible. Wipe clean your partitions and wipe data and dalvik cache. Then try again, although i did not have the problem that you mention, are you running any other scripts? eg. darktremors?
[Milestone XT720 General] V_XT720:
What I did:

1. Clean Installation of Steelblue V4 rom.

2. Two primary partitions (FAT32 and EXT3). I used card reader.

3. App and dalvik-cache folders on ext3 partition.

4. Wipe clean partitions and wipe data and dalvik cache.

After first reboot everything was fine. Then I installed a root explorer to check a ext3 partition. The app and dalvik-cache folders were there. I decided to restart the phone again before I install anything else and nothing happened....only M logo:confused:
[Milestone XT720 General] Mioze7Ae:
dalvik-cache on ext partition will cause bootloops in Khal's ROMs.
[Milestone XT720 General] Frisbee6:
Mioze, even though i have ext3 working im still losing some space in internal. thats normal right?
[Milestone XT720 General] V_XT720:
Yes....I installed a Dexter 1.3 + bugfix patch 3 and now everything is fine.

There are no problems with app and dalvik-cache folders on ext3 partition.

But now I have the same problem like a Frisbee6 .... Is this a problem or it's a normal?
