[Motorola Droid 3] bsweetness:
Then I'd go ahead and get that complaint typed up and that money for unlocking ready to go. :)

They use "your service provider" because they sell phones for different service providers. It's easier to have a blanket statement rather than tailoring the statement to every single device. Verizon pays for the rights to use the "Droid" name. So any device with that Droid name is the Verizon version of the phone. There's no reason why Verizon would allow devices with the name they paid for the rights to (through a very costly deal with LucasFilm no doubt) to come unlocked to be used on other carriers if they aren't allowing it for all of the phones. In the end, if you buy it directly from Motorola, you'll just pay $65 more ($525 vs $460) than you would if you bought it outright from Verizon for the exact same locked phone.
[Motorola Droid 3] xstrike9999:
Hello, anyone? where should I get the phone unlocked from? would be great if anyone could give me a link.
[Motorola Droid 3] deoxy:
Go to ebay and search for droid 3 unlock. You'll find sellers: freedomobile and unlock_fusion.

I don't know if they will work, but more than 99% of their customers is positive about them. Keep us posted when you try it out.
[Motorola Droid 3] nerdslogic:
I just hope everyone understands what "unlock" you are getting as it is NOT the boot loader. Seems like on other forums they think its a boot loader unlock
[Motorola Droid 3] rweb:
Got my D3 from Motorola store. As expected, it was SIM locked. But I can confirm too that codes from swiftunlocks work! :-)
[Motorola Droid 3] AviUA:
Fantastic! Motorola owe you a commission for selling another Droid 3 -- to me!

Like others, I couldn't find a retail site for swiftunlocks on ebay - I must be doing something wrong - but as others said, if you search ebay for "Droid 3 unlock" you will get a couple links to other sellers of unlock codes but

BEWARE

they say in the small print that they can only send the codes via post! (snailmail) per ebay regulations!

[Motorola Droid 3] JayXL14:
HOLD UP!

So your Droid 3 works wifth AT&T SIM?
[Motorola Droid 3] rweb:
See my other post, send him an email. Just as I did.

And no again, I don't think it works with AT&T. I cannot definitely check since I live in Germany.

I think it's like with D2G where it didn't work with U.S. providers.
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
So it costs $30 for unlock? = €450 total.

edit; nvm, i see it's $20

Anyone have experience with unlocking the $460 verizon version? Why didn't you order this one rweb?
[Motorola Droid 3] xstrike9999:
@rweb, does the phone you ordered from the Moto store have verizon branding as well? Does it have the Verizon logo and all that bloatware?
[Motorola Droid 3] rweb:
Phones directly from Verizon should unlock as well.

I chose Motorola Store because I had hope it could be unlocked, and because from my understanding, a D3 from Verizon must have at least a 1 month contract, that would make it about equal expensive -- maybe I'm wrong with that.

To the other question: I'm really sure the phone from Motorola Store is exactly the same as that from Verizon: Same branding, same logo, same blur, same locking -- I even got a Verizon SIM card as well. :-)
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
So we might as well order the $460 version?

[Motorola Droid 3] kino1808:
ok. I'm noob in xda, I'm in Korea.

Just I get my droid3 in 7/31, and its locked.

So I just found ebay seller, and I try to unlock my device.

Yeah, it works. I bought 29.9$ (freedomobile), and really it works.

No reply that someone who buy the code in here, so I reply it.
[Motorola Droid 3] quetonix:
Hey guys and girls,

I think my phone is hardlocked, no unlock codes work on it, is it possible for me to unlock it via cables if i give it into a 3rd party phone shop? Does anyone know if any shops unlock a droid 3 global, on which no codes work?

Thanks
[Motorola Droid 3] Codename_Falcon:
I can confirm the Droid 3 will NOT work with AT&T or T-Mobile. You will need to buy the XT860.
[Motorola Droid 3] WaltA:
Is it "better" than the unlock code VZW will give out for free to its customers who have been with them for 60 days (or is it 90 days?).
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doctorj1:
exactly as the title says, i cant figure out how to switch to a different keyboard,

there's no option under the language and keyboard settings to actually select one of the other keyboard i have installed, any ideas??
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] efan450:
I'm on cm7 also and only have one keyboard selection but I install swype beta and never looked back...do you want swype or the old sammy keyboard? Swype was pretty easy to install but I'm not sure about the old keyboard from froyo rom...idk if there is a work around to get it on cm7? You may be out off luck for that keyboard?
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattstakilla:
Are you looking to actually just select a new keyboard or install a totally new one

If selecting make sure it checked in language and keyboard settings and long press in any text box, choose input method and select the desired keyboard. thats how I did it
[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doctorj1:
yeah that was it, i was used to having the option to select a keyboard in the settings and didn't know about the long press any text box, thanks

[Epic 4G General] Pete720:
I just wanted to ask you guys my fellow Epic owners if any of you own an Android tablet and from a development standpoint which one would you go with? Are there any Epic devs that do any tablet custom work?
[Epic 4G General] mattallica76:
Bonsai has had a ROM out for the Galaxy 10.1 for a couple of weeks now. Also working on the ASUS Transformer.
[Epic 4G General] Pete720:
Those are the two front runners on my list right now with Asus being in the lead.
[Epic 4G General] zanderman112:
If I were to buy a tablet, i'd either get:

Cheap: Nook Color, already has a big community, cm7, hc

Not so cheap: Galaxy Tab 10.1, cleanest looking HC tablet I've seen, and I've seen 'em all.

Posted by Mr. Z's Epic 4G.
[Epic 4G General] searchfirst:
transformer has bang for buck value however ive seen two at work haber to be returned due to non responsive screens.

Galaxy 10.1 stopped me from buying the flyer/view. I really liked the 7 inch screen but the galaxy just felt great....nicest thing compared to the ipad.
[Epic 4G General] Xhyperion:
I'm getting a transformer once they fix the bugs and 3.0 is open source. I'm keeping an eye on the forums.
[Epic 4G General] lviv73:
Dont forget about HP touchpad.

Yeah it got many bugs and negative reviews due to bugs but after an update im sure that web os will shine on it.Its slow and lags because hp dint have anough time to write the code for touchpad's gpu so basicly right now cpu does all gpu tasks.

Yeah I want GS 10.1 too but I will wait and see if hp fixes touchpad first because I want something different from ios and android.
[Epic 4G General] muyoso:
Ill be buying an android tablet once they stop using the tegra 2. Until then, 10 ft poll.
[Epic 4G General] Xhyperion:
The transformer can be oced to 1.6 stable on a dual core tegra
[Epic 4G General] cds0699:
I have a galaxy tab 10.1 and I love it so much. It was a tough choice between the tab and the Asus transformer... but I just liked the size/weight of the tab better.
[Epic 4G General] 063_XOBX:
Don't buy a Honeycomb tablet.

Wait for Ice Cream or later when the interesting hardware and software optimizations take hold with 10 "retina display" equivalents and quad core processors.
[Epic 4G General] gTen:
I was gonna buy once a quad core came out..but after seeing a gtab for 250$ new that has a tegra 2 cpu I couldn't resist...it has a port of cm7 and honeycomb. and stuff...they aren't perfect but they work for the most part. Its biggest weakness right now is lack of honeycomb tegra 2 drivers and its screen is not the best LCD tech used..otherwise its ok..
[Epic 4G General] muyoso:
And still can't play media files my phone can . . . . .

That's why I have no interest in a tegra 2 tablet. Complete and utter failure to play ALL high profile h.264 video in at least 720p, which is something my epic can do and the original ipad can do. Yes,, the original single core ipad..
[Epic 4G General] muyoso:
The 7" gab does not have a tegra 2 and is not dual core.
[Epic 4G General] usagi111:
I had a sylvania tablet for the the longest and manged to get Google Market and froyo on it (unless you had one, you know that was a GREAT feat!) and I was happy with it...unfortunately, circumstances forced me to sell it and when I did he had just gotten rid of his 7' Galaxy Tab, telling me that the simplest tilt would make it change orientation quickly. I was surprised that he chucked it for a sylvania. I plan on either getting a Color Nook next, or try to find a sale on an Acer a500.

Also:ironically, 3 weeks after I sold the Sylvania Tablet, the source code was finally released for it, which means development for it is soon to rise *sigh* real bad time, I guess...
[Epic 4G General] tpike:
We bought a bunch of sgtabs at work. Love mine from a practical standpoint, but the dev world is a bit behind. I don't think its lacking much, just a reliable cwm and then a complete set of stock files (modem, kernel, rom) and things will be moving. I expect the source will eventually come out. I hear that's what's lacking in the kernel dev dept. Personally I like samsung. When the 4g 10.1 is released I plan on getting that one. Despite the slow update releases, you have to admit, the galaxy s line rocks.
[Epic 4G General] Pete720:
I looked at the Acer A500 for a long time, I really wanted it. But after read tablet reviews on Engadget I changed my mind. The A500 definitely looks great and has a great looking screen.
[Epic 4G General] tumbes20000:
I have a motorola xoom and just got the 3.2 upgrade. The xoom is the default google experience device so it gets all of the updates (us only). Which is quite nice when compared to the epic's slow upgrade process.
[Epic 4G General] 3VilStv:
Hmmmm.....I think this is some

good advice. I'll hold off for a little bit.
[Epic 4G General] coolqf:
It's a single core CPU and has the weight and dimensions of the iPad 1.... No Netflix, kindle reader, and Skype on it sucks... It's also more expensive... Honestly, what does it have going for it? I'd love for webOS to take off, but it just keeps lagging behind by about 9 months...
[Epic 4G General] Pete720:
The HP tablet looks ok but I had a Palm Pre and I was just not a fan. No I will be fair and say that WebOS was in it's infancy with the Pre but I would have to personally wait a while on the HP system to see what kind of development support it gets.
[Epic 4G General] zanderman112:
I learned this when I got the epic and came to THIS community: Never buy something, because you expect it to get updates. Most of the time, you will be disappointed. Almost everyone bought the Epic over the evo bcause it has better hardware, but also because they expected an update to a better software. Look how well we turned out. Just sayin'

Posted by Mr. Z's Epic 4G.
[Epic 4G General] Pete720:
I hear that. I was not even thinking of updates, just an open system so I can customize ROM wise and what not. Ever since Frozen 1.2 and Genocide 2.0 I could care less about Epic updates. Most reviews I read show the Asus wins in the hardware department as far as cost goes and it has better battery life than the Galaxy. I believe I saw a forum for the Asus here and I think it has an open boot loader and rooting ability.
[Epic 4G General] cornaljoe:
The Asus Transformer seems to be the best IMO. It's only $399 and it's a dual core + tegra. Add $149 for the Eee Pad and you have powerful touch netbook.
[Epic 4G General] lviv73:
No Touchpad got dual core cpu and gpu that is as good as tegra 2-if not better.

I think it will take time but web os Awill take off because hp talking about putting web os on their laptops and pc's.

Yea Touchpad is bit more bulky but not by much because on the inside its built like a laptop which is easier to fix/mod and for them to build new units with better specs.

Only thing that might keep me from bying it is that its only 18bit color with 256k instead of 24bit with 16m colors like most androids and ipad.

Im surprised that most reviews didnt mention this shortcoming and even more surprised that not too many people cared about it.

18bit color vs 24bit is almost like swithing your desktop from 32bit to 16bit-the difference is very noticible.
[Motorola Droid 3] shad0wdawg:
For those who want to bypass the activation screen, surprisingly it's the same method used on the droid 2.

The method on bypassing the activation screen is

1. On the Welcome screen with the touch the android to begin icon, do the following:

2. Tap the top left corner of the screen then

3. Tap the top right corner of the screen then

4. Tap the bottom right corner of the screen ( just above the grey bar along the bottom with emergency dial and change language in it) then

5. Tap the bottom left corner of the screen ( just above the grey bar along the bottom with emergency dial and change language in it).

6. That’s it, should pop up the home screen shortly, if not retry. Remember not to drag your finger, simple tap top left, top right, bottom right, bottom left.

Credits do not go to me, but to the person who found out about this first. - Copied the steps from TheUnlockr
[Motorola Droid 3] Izeltokatl:
This applies to many phones :-)
[Motorola Droid 3] Avelnan:
Oooorrrrrr, you can tap the corners in a clockwise fashion starting at the top left.

Saves a lot of reading, no offense to the OP.
[Motorola Droid 3] shad0wdawg:
haha, it's my first droid phone. I've been using iPhone, 3G, 3GS, 4, Samsung Vibrant, Captivate and Samsung Infuse so it's the first time I saw it and thought it'd be nice to share considering I didn't know that it'd be on many devices, kinda thought it was like a glitch :P
[Motorola Droid 3] dz1mm3rm4n:
So, any ideas if the process com.motorola.setup keeps force closing? tapping the corners dismisses the activation screen, but continues on to the account setup and promptly crashes. I finally gave up and took it into the Verizon Store and they said it would need replaced, but I have to call an 800#, so I am looking at a day or 2 with no phone and I am currently trying to charge/activate an old phone since I can't even bypass the activation on my D3... I honestly am not very pleased with this device. I wanted so much to like it, but its like they just threw it together and then promptly forgot it existed...

My First Guide. Hope it Helps..

HOW TO REVERSE TETHER YOUR PHONE / INTERNET PASS THROUGH​

Reverse Tethering / Internet Pass through is the method in which you can make your android phone use the internet connection of your computer without a WIFI and by using a usb cable. It is helpful for those people who don’t have a WIFI at their place and for those who don’t have a good internet plan for their mobile.

BASIC REQUIREMENTS​

Rooted Phone With S-OFF

SuperUser [QR Code]

BusyBox [QR Code]

Terminal Emulator [QR Code]

Windows O.S. [I am using Win-7]

USB Cable for your phone

THE PROCESS​

Connect Your Android Phone to your PC. Make sure you are rooted and have terminal emulator installed. Turn on USB Tethering from

SETTINGS -> WIRELESS AND NETWOKRS -> TETHERING AND PORTABLE HOTSPOT -> USB TETHERING.

Screen

Next you will get a new connection in your PC. Open Networking and Sharing Center from

CONTROL PANEL -> NETWORK AND SHARING CENTER

You get a scene in a similar manner.

Screen

Now There will be one connection which will be your Main Net Connection and the Other one will be your Android Phone’s Created Connection for tethering. Click on your main net connection i.e. the one you use for Connecting to net Local Area Connection(in my case).

You will get the following screen.

Screen

Now click on Properties.After this click on sharing and tick on Allow other network users to connect through this computer’s internet connection and click ok for any dialog box shown and click ok to come back to the main networking screen.

Screen

Now click on the new connection made by the android phone Local Area Connection 2 (in my case)

You will get the following screen

Screen

Click on properties. Then go to Internet Protocol version 4(TCP/IPv4) and click on properties.

Screen

Now You need to enter 192.168.2.1 in IP address and enter 255.255.255.0 in Subnet mask and keep remaining things empty.

Screen

PART ON THE PHONE​

NOTE:- ALL CODES HAVE TO BE WRITTEN WITHOUT QUOTES

Open Android Terminal on the Phone and type "su". Provide it superuser permissions.

Screen

Now type “ifconfig usb0 192.168.2.2 netmask 255.255.255.0”

Screen

“busybox route delete default”

Screen

You may get an error here but it does not matter.

Now type “iptables –F –t nat”(* -F in caps is must)

Then type “busybox route add default gw 192.168.2.1”

Screen

“setprop net.dns1 8.8.8.8”

Next (setprop “net.gprs.http-proxy” “” ) [*Note :- here the code is written in bracket to avoid confusion.. The quotes(“”) are required.

Screen

CONGRATS.... YOU ARE DONE!!

RESULTS​

Works on Android Browser.(FOR ME)

Works on Opera & Opera Mini.

Works on XDA Premium App.

DOES NOT Work on Android Market.(Finding a Solution... if anyone gets it working please tell)

You may need to repeat this process each time you connect the phone to PC.

Works even without a SIM inserted.
[Wildfire Android Development] meknb:
Nice guide

To enable the market click settings under the sharing tab and add a new service called market with the port number 5228.
[Wildfire Android Development] omegfa:
how use other app for internet
[Wildfire Android Development] akazi1:
No resolution

currently m using a wildfire and cannot switch on USB tethering until mobile network is connected followed all the steps but no luck
[Wildfire Android Development] biteyou:
I am also a wildfire user. I did so many searching for reverse usb tethering, what I searched for were similar to the script of this thread. I follow all the steps but also not success.

I did do some searching, I just GUESS the main problem is the router at my home. My computer access the modem via router, maybe the router cannot give my WF a IP so my WF cannot access the internet? I dunno.

I didn't try access the internet with my computer connecting directly via modem without router since my home wire connection is so so so so complicated, but I believe that it will success. Would somebody try it and share your experience?
[Wildfire Android Development] core1024:
I think you can write a batch file for this. Using netsh and adb it would be easily done just from PC ;)
[Wildfire Android Development] jesseuy:
thanks for the guide worked for me.

Problem though is that after i turned off the tethering and disconnected my phone from the pc then reconnect it again just to check if it works the 2nd time, if found that usb tethering is having an error and does not turn on.

question is how to disable this or how i disconnect my phone from pc the right way? well after restarting, tethering is again ok and
