The proof will be when we are all sitting around complaining because we have been locked out. You can choose to follow this advice or not but, if you think that I would post something to monger fear then apparently you don't know me. It will be people like you who ruin it for all of us. If you don't believe me then do your own research. Disprove it but, until then don't be one of those fools that say global warming isn't real. The evidence is in front of us. Android was completely open in beginning and we were encouraged to develop away. Then as more people began to abuse their power (knowledge is power) the manufacturers and carriers started locking everything down. If you can't see it staring you in the face your blind. Another issue entirely is people who have no aptitude for this what soever are bricking their phones and then getting new replacements simply because they can't follow instructions and shouldn't be modding to begin with but, that's a different discussion for a different day.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] yutzyscott:
Well, I'm happy to burst yours. Use pdanet, I've been using it since unboxing this beast. I used it to set up adb and to find rooting instructions. And then to download su.zip folder.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] GertBFrobe:
I agree with the premise of your original post, but when you resort to name calling and "You do the research to prove my point" all credibility goes out the window.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] yutzyscott:
Im inviting him to disprove my point not prove it. My information comes from all over various forums. P3droid a well known developer in our community first brought this to our attention. And it has been discussed on many other sites. People can believe what they want. If you want to wireless tether then go ahead. You can do it by installing app from third party source or restoring a titanium backup version from previous device then freezing all stock apps and processes related to wireless hotpot in titanium. Good luck.

I am just a modder like the rest of you. I do not benefit nor have any reason to monger fear. I am just providing what I know and have read to increase awareness... do with it what you will.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] igotgame:
Do any of the wireless tether apps actually load up and work?

I heard yesterday that Wifi Tether 3.0 did, but didn't see anyone else claim that it did.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Superguy:
I fired it up just to test it. Wouldn't work for me.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] igotgame:
Wireless tether is one of the reasons I still have my Droid X on Froyo...I use it a lot.

If I were able to get it to work on the Bionic, I might would consider purchasing it...although I am not thrilled about the screen on the Bionic.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] garberfc:
Tethering w/ a 2GB/Mo limit??

I'm afraid to run anything tethered unless I have to. I'm afraid I'm going to quickly exceed the 2GB/mo DL limit!!
[Motorola Droid Bionic] djkms:
I downloaded and installed 3.1 beta 6 and it fired up. As soon as the program started the default tether from motorola also started. I was able to send out a SSID and my eee pad tablet picked it up, however in the list of devices there was a * next to the name. I tried to connect, no go. Sure do hope Verizon doesnt send me a nasty letter :p
[Motorola Droid Bionic] psufan5:
Guys... this happens. I pretty much think the kernel needs to be modified as this happens on my TBolt when a kernel has a bug. Until we see if the boot loader is going to be unlocked... dont hold your breath :)
[Motorola Droid Bionic] jayneo8:
There seem to be a lot of people who depend on tethering... why don't you guys just get PdaNet. Works perfectly fine on the Bionic and you dont even need root...
[Motorola Droid Bionic] eagle17:
although you have said this multiple time, i have yet to see someone get it to work on a bionic.

nobody seems to be able to reproduce your results (if you have done this, not saying you didn't but i don't remember you saying you did either)

waiting for a custom rom may be a bridge to far for most people .. just depends on unlocking the bootloader... I am hopeing it will be soon...
[Motorola Droid Bionic] psufan5:
ROMs need root, not a bootloader. Atrix had roms before the bootloader was unlocked.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] eagle17:
yeap.. although if the rom is based on the same code as the current rom wouldn't that mean they may still be able to detect the tehering software?

bootloader means we can get cm7 or aosp style rom going or am i wrong? can we use aosp without bootloader?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] willbur73:
You lost me completely when you called on global warming as a comparative scenario.

Lol.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] guod2002:
To the OP, This is exactly what I was trying to say, I didnt personally attack you or what you were saying, you posted it, post the proof, there have been mixed results with a variety of tethering apps, and to as if you would or would not post something to monger fear, I dont know but if you haven't noticed, some people do things like that, hence the term troll, again if I thought thats what you were doing, I would have called you out on it, but I posted a simple suggestion instead, the point is if you can support your theory with facts and evidence, alot more people would heed your warning, which was the intent of the thread to begin with was it not?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] yutzyscott:
A friend of mine said the same thing
[Motorola Droid Bionic] AhkuDroid:
Tethering is not "illegal" but a civil issue regarding a perceived breach of contract. They can terminate your service or attach a tethering charge, but you won't go to jail or get fined. Let's just be succinct and not exaggerate how to define rooted tether apps. The true question is whether their claim of charging you twice for the same portal to the internet should be allowed.

This is no different than when broadband first became available and some providers charged you per computer attached. Eventually, after routers became ubiquitous, they realized that wasn't how people were going to consume their service and gave up the fight against it. We are paying for internet access, it shouldn't matter what screen you consume it on, whether a phone, tablet, or computer. Most sites you visit would be the same amount of data (unless optimized for mobile) no matter on what or how you view it.

I say tether as much as you want and push back. Hopefully, it will eventually be considered an included part of your service rather than an add on service, assuming competition forces them to. It happened with "illegal" routers at the end of the 90s, and now will hopefully occur with cell phones. I understand bandwidth constraints, but they should be spending money to increase it rather than fighting, for now, a relatively small portion of their customers with the know how to do so.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] tnnm:
So nice to see someone else on here appreciates the difference between civil and criminal matters. Carriers are not elected to congress and therefore do not create laws. They create contracts with terms of service clauses which they can then allege you have violated by tethering and are therefore in breach of contract. The result is a civil matter that likely ends up as a termination of the service. They will also likely try to charge you an ETF. Good luck avoiding the credit hit if you don't pay it.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] yutzyscott:
Im not debating the legality of the issue. Im currently hoping Verizon allows us to unlock our bootloaders. If everyone in this communities first order of business after receiving their phone is to use what Verizon calls an illegal tether app then it will be unlikely that Verizon will allow us to unlock our phones. Right now they have the advantage of status quo. Im only asking the community not to shoot itself in the foot. Please be patient and wait for an aosp rom.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Immolate:
I think the battle Verizon is trying to win, in fact the battle they must win, if preventing customers from using their mobile phones as a defacto home internet replacement. The reasons are twofold: 1) Verizon provides a home internet service which this would compete with and, 2) use of your phone as a whole-house internet replacement vastly increases the amount of data consumed.

The reality is that, no matter how much anyone pleads for people to behave themselves, if it saves money or provides convenience, many people are going to do it anyway. I consider the entire premise of this email an exercise in futility.

However, since the "problem" is confined to those with root and who have grandfathered unlimited data plans, I think that Verizon could safely ignore us and the problem would eventually trail off to nothing. But that's not how Verizon rolls.

So what is going to happen is this. There will be some give and take as Verizon tries to put impediments in our path, and we overcome each impediment. Finally, they will get righteously angry and force tiered data on us, probably incrementally. I expect they'll just force upgraders to move to a "current" data plan. I also consider this eventuality to be inevitable, human nature being what it is.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Chopstix9:
I am following this with interest. My absolute intent is to replace my home ISP with two tethered 4g phones!! I am not ashamed to admit it. Yes, I am one that is grandfathered in to unlimited. I run a rooted Charge in my truck and am on line with my lappy all day long. I have been waiting for the Bionic to come out, with the intent of the wife getting the Charge and myself the Bio. I am between Detroit and Toledo. 4g is just a few miles above me and below me, but not in city yet. I therefore don't feel pressured to run out and buy the Bionic. With what I am seeing thus far, if 4g popped in my town tomorrow, I would probably get another Charge. I am not a power user that feels a great need for the dual core I guess. The Charge does a fantastic job for me tethering using Open Garden and I could be fine with a second one to save 50 per month to Comcast for net ... and then again, with time things will improve I am sure ... if it is after October before 4g gets here, we'll take a lookeesee @ the Prime too
[Motorola Droid Bionic] AhkuDroid:
The problem with this is, depending on how you consume the internet, you will likely get inconsistent data speeds if you do more than just simple browsing at home. For instance, if you stream video much like Netflix, do any gaming, or download large files regularly, you data use is going to raise some flags. Verizon has openly admitted to throttling the speed of the top 10% of users on 3G, not sure on 4G yet. They greatly slow down your speed once you reach a certain threshold to where streaming would stop to buffer constantly.

I agree that until more infrastructure and bandwidth is built, they can't allow tens of gigabytes or more per user each month because the local towers would be overrun. As long as people keep it to reasonable connectivity on tablets and laptops, they won't fight so hard against us.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] MARKREIF:
I 2nd that....
[Motorola Droid Bionic] zedomax:
tried that

Tried the Droid 3 hack, doesn't work on bionic.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Totaltelecom:
has anyone tried freezing the VZW hot spot services on their device then trying wireless tether?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] manolith2011:
I was thinking about just paying $30 a month for tethering and i would just cancel the tablet contract i have. I have unlimited data because i was grandfathered in so i should be able to tether all i want if i pay $30 right?
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] darkylight:
guys, would any of you please help me...

as you know after the final official update, we noticed that there is no moixer mail and calender.

so please does anyone of you have these apps "apk"? i just missed these apps.

thanks in advance.

:)
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] creage:
You can get Moxier from market, by it's paid one.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] darkylight:
yes i know its paid, but i was wondering if i can get it from any one as apk.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] Bhupen Gaitonde:
dear friend..

the moxier mail was inbuilt with x10 when launched and updated with Eclair.. 2.1.. but as informed by SE this will not continue with Gingerbread.. 2.3.3.. the inbuilt mail is also good enough for ur needs with good view panels..

still if u want it u have no other option but to purchase from market.. now its not free and even if you get it.. it will definitely be from 2.1.. it will keep asking for update..

TC..
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] erichall82:
The way I do it is copy the apk files from the 2.1 firmware. Install on your sd card. Then flash your gbread and install your apk files
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] darkylight:
there are many built in apps that i missed after update, and unfortunately i updated without back up of apps.

i was just wondering if an of you back up his apps and have it. but any way thanks a lot all for helping.

still if any one have this app or any app from 2.1 i'll be glad to have.

thanks in advance
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] darkylight:
dear all,

i read many threads on demanding the moxier mail, even i posted threat but with no use, i couldnt find any free moixer mail, i was forced to buy it from market and for that am welling to give it any person who want it but in cheaper than the market.

if any one want the moixer mail back just mail me on: darkylight83@hotmail.com and i'll attached for you.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] MDAIII Avdo:
I have a big problem. A month ago I received a mini pro Xperia, which is a testing version. She had problems with the software and have tried to do upgrade ROM. Official site SonyEricsson gave me information that the software is updated and there is no need for a new one. I decided to do the upgrade "[Firmware] [4.0.A.2.368] [Ray] [ST18] [URUSHI] Official Firmware + ROOT solution" at the direction and started FlashTool ROM 0.3.0.0 and above.

Nothing else I did (Im not unlocked the baseband ,if needed).

Now the phone is stuck at a black blank screen, so naw not know IMEI. Unable to turn it on.

Data from the phone are:

Android version:

2.3

No other information I have. This info I pick up before the upgrade, everything except the IMEI : /

any help?

soory for my bad Eng.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] iceeyes91:
As I See it you flashed the wrong Firmware. The Firmware you flashed is for another device (xperia ray).

You should have flashed the one with "SK17i". Search for that thread.

Sadly I Don't Know how you can recover your phone. You will have to wait for a professionell.

Best regards
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] MDAIII Avdo:

Ok thanks

.....

Any other ideas because it is now impossible to turn on the phone and "turn on Unknown Sources and Debugging"

thanx in advance

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] RaitR:
Just flash ur phone with sk17i soft as u did with the ray version. N ur device should boot up properly.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] MDAIII Avdo:
turned on phone and " checked unknown sources and usb debugging "

But how "unknown sources and usb debugging is checked" when my phone turned off an no idea how turned on :/
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] RaitR:
Weird, try downloading the software file again, error doest seem to be "turn on debugging". Seems like it ends the flashing for some reason and then it prints the debug part, would show it after successful flash too. Try start flashing without phone connected n connect ur phone holding down the volume - key after flashtool tells u to.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Bin4ry:
The "unknown sources and debugging" message is shown after process is finished, no matter if sucessfull or not!

You photo clearly shows ERROR while flashing! So flash again until you flashed successful!

Also you can try to flash kernel via fastboot! s1boot should be still good! Also be SURE that you are flashing the RIGHT firmware! You always want to flash Ray firmware! Flash the SK17i Firmware!

Regards
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] MDAIII Avdo:
Simply phone not go in flash mode (volume down button, green light) green light is lit 10s and then goes out. Is there another way to put it in flash mode. It seems that this problem!

Thank you all for help
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Bin4ry:
Obviously this is the flashmode .... Your problems maybe the Computer, if the Computer does not speak to the phone inside the timeframe of 10s phone will leave it automatically.

So try to use other Computer.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] MDAIII Avdo:
First time I put (as I stated before) incorrect firmware "[Firmware] [4.0.A.2.368] [Ray] [ST18] [URUSHI] Official Firmware ROOT + solution" and now just wants to flesh the same firmware(ST18) so it will not SK17i . Simply , phone now recognized as the ST18. So it's not the computers, I have changed a 3-4 computers ... nothing.

In any case, thank you all for help
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Linkinsoldier:
this should be fixable.

Try flashing the SK17i kernel via fastboot

fastboot flash boot boot.img

(where boot.img is the kernel file!)

also, flashing the phone with other tools (like Se Tool) should be a way to fix the phone.

If you cant get your phone back to life, i would love to have a go on it ;)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] MDAIII Avdo:
Thanks man, I was able to "flashing the kernel via SK17i Fastboot" now tourn on the phone. Now show that the model is ST 18i with a different resolution displays !!!

Of course I try to remain :)))))
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Linkinsoldier:
ok, now after you have flashed the kernel, there should be no problem to manually flash the sk17i firmware!

have you tried it?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] MDAIII Avdo:
Flash the sk17i

"manually flash the sk17i firmware"

I tried not to go ://

By the way here's pictures of the new SW :)...:///
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Linkinsoldier:
I dont understand what you mean. You dont want to flash the new firmware (because you have to... SK18 firmware on SK17 isnt going to get you anywhere...).

Or you cant flash it?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] MDAIII Avdo:
Maybe I do not understand the best!! but this is SK17i-minipro2!? ST18 is ray !!!?. My mistake upgrade ST18 firmware (my firs post) and I want back on SK17i. because this is a mini pro2 (at least I think so , has querti keyboard) I got it as a prototype and model tag in the soft. no have marks that model.

Now I have software from ST18 and this is a problem because the display is 480 x 854 pixels.

Hope you can understand.

Soory for my bad Eng.

Tnx
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Linkinsoldier:
yes i understand. xperia mini pro 2 (or actually just mini pro) is SK17i.

Download this file:

[LG Thrill 4G] jussme55:
Does anyone know if and when Walmart stores will carry the LG Thrill? I've been waiting a long time for this phone and I'm ready to exchange a recently purchased phone for it. I live in Nevada and unfurtunately, it's one of the states that make you pay full retail price tax on cell phones...except at Walmart so that's where I make my purchases. Any info would be greatly appreciated.
[LG Thrill 4G] Cthater:
I know Radio Shack and Target are selling the Thrill. Radio Shack has it for $79 and Target has it for $49. So that might help you save in the sales tax issue.
[LG Thrill 4G] N!ghtgold:
Honestly if you can find a costco out of state thats not too far you can pic one up for $30 bucks unless costco in Vegas doesnt tax you
[LG Thrill 4G] magicriggs:
If your exchanging a recently purchased phone within the 30 day period, you'll have to go back to where you bought it. Or you can just return it, and undo the upgrade/new activation, then go wherever you want to go.
[LG Thrill 4G] 47r0n1n:
I would go to Best Buy Mobile. I worked for Best Buy as a manager for 3 years as their Mobile Manager at a large store and if you got a good manager running the Best Buy Mobile they are easy to deal with and do get preferential treatment for stock on phones of this caliber. Assuming that a Best Buy Mobile is near you. We used to get "the" latest and greatest phones before even the two AT & T corporate stores did and more product to boot. Sorry for the wall of text...my point is; check them out if you got one near by. They are in Best Buy's or have a stand-alone location typically in the mall usually in close proximity to the actual Best Buy store. I hope that helps.
[HTC Sensation] shammanCZ:
Oke folks i have a simple question.

I need a WORKING call policy app, i dont care whether paid or free. I've tried several apps from Android Market but theres one problem with them, neither runs in background or automatically starts after phone restart. Even if the description says they do ... they dont, like Call Manager PRO for instance. All i need from this app is when i set up a time interval, example 8PM-8AM, only certain phone numbers will be able to call me/reach me in this time period, rest will get either redirected or sent back SMS with some random "not available, will call laters" sms. I was getting through out the Sensation apps and setting and theres nothing like that build-in by default, unlike iPhone for example.

Is it realy so hard to find a working app, which doesnt autoclose when i start another app or auto starts after phone restart. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
