I currently don't tether, I was planning on using this; https://market.android.com/details?id=android.tether&feature=search_result

but whenever I search for it on my Charge I can't seem to find it on the market place, and clicking the direct link just gives me an error. Hope someone has found a good wireless tether, going away for the weekend and could really use one!
[Verizon Droid Charge] dsmero:
Lame answer. Use Wireless Tether 3.1. Make sure to use the Samsung Galaxy S device profile under settings.

Thank you!!

I recently discovered opengarden wifi tether. Search market for opengarden and its the first app you see. Works great on my nook, laptop and wii. Broadcasts in AP mode.

I loaded Barnacle and rooted my phone last night, so far so good. But I am going to also try Open Garden to see it it meets my need (see my thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1158476 )
[Verizon Droid Charge] mautai916:
so just to clarify guys, if use this tethering program, it can help me save a few bucks comparedd to paing for verizon's optional tethering service? ;-)
[Verizon Droid Charge] blarrick:
I've tried both the tethering programs in this thread and neither are detected on my PSP/NDS, the app also doesn't ask or tell me the SSID or passphrase, anyone know a REAL wireless tethering app where you can make it act pretty much like a router..?

I've used barnacle for almosta year on my D1 and it worked great. I even changed the ssid to virus hahaha lol never had anyone they to connect either lol. I am going to try to root this charge this weekend when I get home as I'm a trucker. So mad they stopped the free hotspot.
[Verizon Droid Charge] siphyn:
I use wireless tether for root 3.1 beta 1. For device profile I use Samsung fascinate for infrastructure mode.

[Verizon Droid Charge] ITGuy11:
Ha ha, that is hilarious! I also use VIRUS for my SSID, keeps the hackers out lol.
[Verizon Droid Charge] AmmoDawg85:
where is Barnacle found?
[Verizon Droid Charge] T0yman:
I have never found one, PSP/NDS probably have the same issue with connecting to Ad Hoc networks. I had to root tablet and edit a file to make it work with A500.

Open Garden seems to have a better pass through for speed, used Wireless Tether for quite some time with no issues.

I pay enough to Vz since I never go over 5G a month even with tethering I don't feel bad at all.

Hi, can you tell me someone how can i change default folder for saving pictures and videos from camera app? Thnx

Just press the settings button(looks like a cog) when in the camera app, scroll down the options and one is storage, where you can store on either internal or external SD card.

Hi All,

I hope I have posted this in the correct area, I have been thinking about where to post it for ages lol

First up I wanted to say hi and intro myself a little :)

like alot I work in IT. In short I do alot of design for Citrix &Vmware virtual systems. Over the last 15 years in IT I have worked as a database admin under HP, SUN & SCO unix systems. So I have a fairly good base for IT in general and unix/linux systems.

Why the message? I need help :)

I want to learn how to create my own roms \ firmwares. Mainly for my Galaxy s and a tablet called a "Dropad A8X" tablet.

Mainly for the Tab ;)

My problem is I don't know where to start nor where to read. Even a place to read or what to read up on to get me started.

Being cert'd in Vmware I have a linux VM box running ubuntu for a dev environment, but I am mainly running Windows 7.

Any chance you can point me in the right direction? I believe the A8X would be awesome with 2.3 installed or maybe see if 3 could be done.

Thanks in advance ;)

[LG Optimus 2x] Etchelon:
Hi, I've searched thoroughly through this and other forums, but this topic doesn't seem to interest many people...and even when there are questions, answers are often imprecise and evasive.

I'd like to know how to modify the toggle buttons in my statusbar. I want to remove the orientation switch (who uses it, seriously?), and add (for a total of 6 buttons), toggle data and 2G/3G switch...is that possible? Yes it is, it's Android :D

But how to do it? Is there a guide or even some files ready for flashing? I'd like to get rid of Extended Controls once and for all...

Thanks in advance, looking forward for an answer :cool:
[LG Optimus 2x] remczar69:
Unfortunately it's not possible to edit those buttons on the Stock LG ROM.
[LG Optimus 2x] Etchelon:
Another good reason to switch to a cooked ROM :D

Anyway, can you post anything you are willing to (links to guides, files...) for doing this on other ROMs? And maybe a list of ROMs that allow this operation (or, at least, the characteristic they need to have, for example a certain kernel or other stuff).

Thanks in advance :D
[LG Optimus 2x] ArrO:
I know for sure that CM 7 has that possibility. I use CM7 it is pretty stable for me.

[HTC Sensation] Mainspring:
I was poking around my phone and decided to check out TeleNav app to see how it differs from Google Navigation.

anyway, when you first start it up it gives you a setup screen with 2 bars to choose from.

1) TeleNav free

2) TeleNav no charge

now since it says "free" one would think it's, well, FREE!

anyway, being confused to the difference between free and no charge, I pressed on free.

well, guess what...

they meant "free to download" their premium service! argh! :mad:

tried to cancel through the app and it gave me a 888 number to call so I did.

TeleNav CS rep basically told me to call Tmo CS to cancel, even though it's their service.

got it taken care of through Tmo but anyway, I think this is very dishonest of TeleNav to program the setup page like that.

it should atleast say "free to DL premium" or something, not just "free".

seems like they decided to do this to trick people into sign up for their premium service.

it's just wrong. period.

anyway, sorry for the rant but felt I had to get it out there.
[HTC Sensation] Lakeshow423:
****in Telenav! Good looking out. That is one of the apps I first disabled when we got fre3vo.
[HTC Sensation] samnada:
"Unlimited" and "free" are virtually never what they seem to be, but "free to download" is a new low.
[HTC Sensation] phonegod:
mine say upgrade to premium with your first 30 days free or use basic navigation at no charge i hit basic and it works not being charge you must of hit premium
[HTC Sensation] Mainspring:
huh, screen on mine does not say that.

it's just as I described above.

odd. glad on yours it gives you a proper info and warning.

wish mine was more clear on what they meant.

"TeleNav free" don't mean squat. MFers... :mad:
[HTC Sensation] jmcghee1973:
Was the same way on the Vibrant...my wife clicked on the app to see what it was...no premium or none of that. Then one day I asked what this 2.99 charge was & she had no idea. I didn't catch it until 3 months later and was being charged for something we never used.

[EVO 4G General] drslevy:
OK, here's the deal, i got a 32 GB micro sd card ( class 10 ) about 4 months ago now and twice in the last 3 weeks it got corrupted. Some of the files were still available but for the most part, about 80% of all files were unreadable. The first time it happened was after unmounting my card from a mac, the second time i was unmounting from a pc but it was only charging.

I know it might be that the card is dieing or that its a low quality card but does anyone have any specific rules or un-mounting tricks that would reduce the risk of corrupted files on the sd card?

I am always plugging my phone into multiple computers for file access so it has to be something that i can initiate from the phone end.
[EVO 4G General] BonkyMoon:
Do you turn off Disk mode on the phone before you pull the usb cord out? If not, that's generally a good thing to do.
[EVO 4G General] drslevy:
well, which should you do first? turn off disk mode or eject from the computer?
[EVO 4G General] dsf3g:
After having that happen with the 16GB SD card in my Nook Color, I pretty much avoid removing it from the device as much as possible. With the Evo, just use disk mode and transfer files that way without ever taking the card out of the Evo. If you ever do remove it be sure the "unmount" it frist from the phone, and eject properly from the computer.
[EVO 4G General] BonkyMoon:
I don't bother with the computer end, for any USB devices. I guess if you did want to do both you'd want to do the computer end first, since disabling disk mode also mounts the sd card on the phone in addition to unmounting it as a disk.
[EVO 4G General] sitlet:
Did you buy it from an authorized retailer?
[EVO 4G General] drslevy:
i bought it from newegg.

well, i"ve noticed that it happened once when i ejected from the pc frist and then frpom the phone.

Anyone found that if you have installed some apps that included a loads of data with some mp3 format, your stock Music would load them into your music library.

So that, when I shuffle all the songs, I would hear some characters' saying or weapons' smashing sometimes. All I can say is ****...:mad:

Can someone teach me how to avoid this matter?:confused: It's really annoying.

stock Gallery app also has the same problem.

I have tried to delete those sound effects from Music. However, when launch those app, I would get "Data is not completed, please re-download.":(

[HTC EVO 3D] Nieylana:
I know there are tons of threads out there showing how to get the MSL, some involve calling sprint and getting a nice rep, others require external tools to read info from the device... here's a way that i discovered (on accident really) for the Evo-3D..

First obtain temp root via any method you wish.

Next we need to 'download' the Radio_Config from the phone, we can do this by issuing the following commands:

(You may need temp root, i'll double check since my phone already had it)

after we have this file, open it up in a hex editor and go to the offset 0x107AC4, this is your MSL number.
[HTC EVO 3D] cyberbrutus:
Use Sprint Chat

I just had a chat session and I got the MSL in under 2 minutes !
[HTC EVO 3D] dadoc04:
if you have temp root, another method would be to download MSL reader from the market.
[HTC EVO 3D] hydrogenman:
which is much easier lol
[HTC EVO 3D] markgolly:
All of those comments are true, but for us over in the "shaking something loose" thread, we're looking at the raw radio config, so this method is nice....

BTW, I've grabbed my MSL this way and it seems to work just fine....
[HTC EVO 3D] mikevillarroel:
Good finding!
[HTC EVO 3D] il Duce:
Thank you for the new way (serious), but IMHO, if you have temp root, the app "MSL reader" in the market is waaay easier. Peace.

EDIT: wtf, iFail, sometomes I look at a thread, see one reply, post mine, and then xda is all like "oh yeah, there were a bunch of posts already, and they covered this, but we were hiding it from your browser" ....

sorry for the duplicate :(
[HTC EVO 3D] Ryan00:

[HTC EVO 3D] Nieylana:
Like was said in the OP, i know there are many other ways to do this, I discovered this again by accident, my wife's evo3d doesn't have the OTA update, and mine does... I was taking a look at the bytes agrabren believes to be the bytes we need to change to get s-off and wanted to compare hers and mine, and found this in the process.

[HTC EVO 3D] eslogic:
what did you say when they asked you "why" lol
[HTC EVO 3D] notasimpleway:
I think the easiest way is to call and ask how to reactivate your phone. Say you had to reset it. And they will give you a 6 digital "special code". And you all know what that special code is.

When I called to get mine the rep said he couldn't give the MSL out but said he could tell me how to activate my phone with a little smiley face at the at the end of his sentence. Glad I got a knowledgeable rep and helpful without getting him in trouble.

Sent from my iPhone with the bigger GeeBees.
[HTC EVO 3D] cooolone2:
First off, you din't really need a WHY... it is YOUR phone, period! There are many reasons you could ask for it, but I use the one that I needed it for on the HTC Hero which was to change the "Slot Index Cycle" of the phone... if you don't know what this is, do a quick search, it'll learn ya', the EVO3D is set to "2" as is default (on most) phones, but I like mine set at "0".

Good Luck, but really you shouldn't need it.

[HTC EVO 3D] lafester:
Come on guys this is useful info.

We don't need to know what way you feel is the easiest.

Damn this forum is going downhill.
[HTC EVO 3D] juggaman:
Tell them you are a developer and you need the MSL to test out a new app you are working on. It sounds good enough that they typically won't ask any further questions.
[HTC EVO 3D] cooolone2:
Lafester... of course it is, there is no doubt this is helpful to those who chose this path in the OP to obtain it, very interesting mind you, as there are many ways to skin a cat, so to say... :)

By the way, I just gave it a shot, just to see how long it would take Sprint via phone and it was 1 minute 37 seconds exempting the time on hold, lol.

Remember, keep the MSL "TIGHT" as someone could, (cough) COULD clone your phone with it... just saying. :)

Have a nice day all... ;)

Before I bought my phone I told them I needed my msl# they had no problem giving it to me.
[HTC EVO 3D] cooolone2:
Hummmm, off topic an my apologies, but you most certainly "CAN" change a phone's MEID-ESN once you have the MSL of the phone and the relevant information of the phone you wish to clone, let alone if it is the SAME handset model... just saying.

BTW, for those who are unawares, doing so is highly illegal, so don't even ask how!

Sorry for the interruption.

Regards!

:)
[HTC EVO 3D] trim81:
Dude STOP providing false information.

You are poorly misinformed and you're making yourself look bad.

You CANNOT CLONE a phone is you know its msl number, PERIOD.

You can ONLY clone a phone if you know it's Meid/esn number.

Check your facts.
[HTC EVO 3D] cooolone2:
Actually, check yours...

The meid/esn is EASIER to obtain than the msl due to it being in plain site.

Secondly, you CANNOT perform the necessary reprogramming of the handset WITHOUT the MSL... So, whatever your problem is with my statement is your inability to comprehend which comes first, chicken or egg! The MSL is... The KEY... You CANNOT clone a handset WITHOUT it, period, so yeah! As for the meid, I can get that by pulling the battery, lol. But anyways...

Lastly, I apologise for posting anything that took away from this thread and the OP as it seems some people have nothing better to do than initiate confrontation and promote their own agenda and self... Cause I can see no other reason for the rebuttal to my post.

Regards!

[HTC EVO 3D] trim81:
This will be my last reply, if you wish to rebut, then pm me.

You're mistaken, admit to it. But frankly you have a one sided brain, and probably believe the world is flat too.

Listen, a your MSL is POINTLESS. It has NO EFFECT if a person wants to clone. Your msl is not needed to go on to the donor.

--as. Matter of fact all Verizon and metro pcs uses 000000 (six zeros) for their msl on EVERY SINGLE phone they manufacture.

Again, msl has nothing to do with cloning. --if a person wants to clone your phone, all they need is your Meid/esn number.

Pm me and I will state facts.
[HTC EVO 3D] trim81:
Oh yes and stop apologizing. You sound like a tool
[HTC EVO 3D] ajones7279:
Trim is right. ALL you need from the donor phone ("your" phone) is the ESN/MEID number, and of course the phone number and MSID, which tends to be the same sometimes. You don't have to reprogram anything on the phone you're cloning from.
[HTC EVO 3D] cooolone2:
You know, I was going to let it go, but I cannot.

First off, I apologize as I wish. you don't like it? Too Bad!

Second, we ARE on the HTC EVO3D section of this forum, not a verizon phone, etc.

Thirdly, I never said all you needed was the MSL, I said a phone (EVO3D) could be cloned with it.

Fourth, I KNOW how to clone this particular phone and yes, all you need is the meid/esn of the phone you wish to REPLICATE onto another handset, but alas, THIS PARTICULAR HANDSET, the HTC EVO3D "REQUIRES" the use of the MSL to reprogram it. PERIOD... you could type the meid/esn into the damned thing all freaking day and it wouldn't do a damned thing to the phone, so AGAIN... yeah on THIS handset, of THIS thread, the HTC EVO3D requires the use of the MSL to reprogram the meid/esn of the phone.

Or maybe I should have said if they wanted to clone THEIR # to your phone, i.e., like once it's stolen... it still doesn't make a difference, you need the MSL with this handset.

Geeeeze!

By the way... you could've let it go, so who's the tool and what's your problem? Do you tell people how to cross the street too? Who asked for your correction? Better etiquette might have been exercised if you felt I was so wrong to PM me in the first place and I would have gladly have edited my post of any errors I felt warranted it.

Thanks anyway, maybe it's all semantics (look it up) but I stand by what I said, have a nice life!

:)
[HTC EVO 3D] ajones7279:
The bolded. I interpreted it as the other way around, and you did make it seem as if all they needed was the MSL, no biggie. But I'm pretty sure someone with the knowledge of cloning phones would know how to simply find the MSL. Back in the day I cloned my HTC Touch with CDMA Workshop, the same program we use to find out MSL.

As for him being able to let it go, so could you lol. You started your post with "You know, I was going to let it go, but I cannot." Maybe he couldn't either.

What am I doing? I'm not even in this. :p

To be on topic, I found my MSL by using CDMA Workshop, before root was even acquired. Whatever works for you is best...

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Final5k:
Hi,

I am really puzzled about the speed and connection of 3G/Edge on my Htc HD2 - I have noticed that very often I need to disconnect and reconnect to be able to browse website because the internet connection would not respond. Upon making a new connection, after browsing for 5-10minutes, the connection seems dead and I have to disconnect and re-connect. This has been a problem since using my HTC Touch Pro2 also and the same is for the HD2.

But I also have tested the connection speed on the HTC Desire HD and internet is flawless. Only problem is the Windows Mobile 6 which seems to drop connection. Anyone has encountered similar problems and has a solution to this?

Thanks!
