[EVO 4G General] shortydoggg:
You have unlimited web surfing, email, and pictures. Running up excessive amounts of data by downloading or uploading movies, hosting video games, non-stop usage of a video camera, as well as tethering are all violations of your contract.

Sprint cares more about excessive data usage (whether you are paying for tethering or not) than who is tethering without paying for it, because too much data running through the system affects service. Tethering is just running data to your computer from your phone. They charge the $30 because if they did not, more people would use their phones as their primary internet and run up enormous amounts of data (I DON'T THINK SPRINT AGREES WITH THE 235GB CAP PER MONTH THAT COMCAST ALLOWS). The people who have been flagged by Sprint were all using large amounts of data, and quite a few were actually paying for tethering.
[EVO 4G General] rdub4nd:
I tether exclusively...i download torrents, music, and everything...been doing it since June 4th 2010...no problems! Tether on friend!
[EVO 4G General] iwin2000:
I never paid the $30/month and I tether 15-20GB every month. Never had any problems with Sprint.

I also have an employee discount and only have to pay $60/month. Not bad.
[EVO 4G General] droiddawg:
I'm a light tetherer but a heavy data user. I use 6-10gb monthly and I have since I started my sprint contract 4 months ago. Just keep down your roaming as sprint allows only 300mb of off network roaming.

sent from my 7/23 iNfEcTeD EVO 4G
[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:
It's just important to be responsible about it.

There's nothing wrong with tethering once in a while when it's necessary, there is something wrong with using it as your home internet connection and not paying the extra fee.

It's important to understand that when you abuse the system you're not just hurting us, you're hurting yourself. Why? Because you encourage Sprint to go the route of others. And if they do that, you won't have the option.
[EVO 4G General] dw3bb10:
Ive EASILY tethered on 4G 100+GB since May. Ofcourse, 4G is ABSOLUTELY unlimited no matter what. I dont think they monitor 4G as much as 3G, since the 4G comes from Clear, really. I dont tether 3G much at all. But yea, tether away....just dont do anything illegal.
[EVO 4G General] makisupa79:
Sprint store employees try to sell sprint's $30 a month hotspot and will tell you that is the only way to tether. I do not have this service, and I tether like a madman and have never been charged. I've used PDAnet, wifi tether, and the cm7 built in hot spot option. You have no need to worry, tether away.
[EVO 4G General] skadoo323:
I have tethered as well and had no issues. Mainly use it only when I need to if there isn't any wifi options when I am not at home or work.
[EVO 4G General] rmckenney23:
I use a program called PDANet.

Search Android Market, Free App
[EVO 4G General] PhxkinMassacre:
If you are by 4g when you tether then knock yourself out. They don't monitor 4g at all so u can do whatever. But if you use 3g they track the amount of data but its still unlimited. Just like everyone else said. Don't go crazy with the 3g and you will be in the clear.

P.s. I tethered while out of town for a month in a very good 4g area. Easily used 40+ gigabytes of data during that month (torrents and whatnot) and nothing. No message, no extra charge. Zilch. So if your in 4g ur in the clear as far as I'm concerned.

Edit: btw I use the wireless tether app that's available in the market :)
[EVO 4G General] ThumbFlip:
I use PDAnet and Wifi tethering..PDAnet has to versions a free version and a paid version. the free version you cant view security enabled sites..but I found a way your the paid version...:Dbut Wifi tethering is the easiest way to go!!
[EVO 4G General] Jayevo:
Use pdanet from the android market as well great app ease of use for noobs from what I hear works alot better tethering 4g than my actual time Warner providers internet access do a speed test you'll see the results if your in a decent 4g area
[EVO 4G General] JoeBruin32:
Thanks for the info, there's a wimax tower literally around the corner from my apartment, so I'm planning to use my new epic 4g touch to tether extensively, but I was worried about them scolding me :P I don't plan to use 3g much at all since 4g coverage is pretty good.

What does Make a nandroid mean?

I attempted to locate the info but failed miserably.

Thank you for your time and patience.
[Xoom General] okantomi:
Well, I clicked the wrong button again, so I guess I'm thanking you for asking a good question, lol!

Anyway, a nandroid is a backup file that you make in a custom ClockWorkMod recovery. Depending on what recovery version you install, your nandroid will be saved on the external micro sdcard (my preference) or on internal "sdcard". there's also a new recovery version that uses a usb flash drive.

It's basically an image of your entire system, apps, data, configuration at the time of the backup. A custom recovery, is really beneficial for the ability it gives you to make nandroid backups, and to flash zip files (roms, kernels and other mods) from within the recovery menu.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] henri54:
Hello!

Here is my problem. Weeks ago i rooted my phone using unrevoked and I'm also S-off. But yesterday i wanted to flash a new rom, so I wiped and after that took conscious that I was unable to flash a new rom because it was impossible to access my SD-card. I tried to reactivate the my SD-card using differents methods but it didn't work.

So now I totally desesperated, if anyone has any idea of how i could fix it he would become my hero!

PS : sorry for my English.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TVTV:
Try to format your SD card using your computer. Use FAT32. Copy a new ROM file to said card then flash via recovery. If that doesn't work, try using a different SD card, maybe this one is broken (yes, it can happen all of a sudden).

To check if your USB is bricked, try connecting your device when in HBOOT mode (bootloader) to a PC via USB. If the PC can detect the phone, then it's not an USB brick. The phone's screen should also read "HBOOT USB". You can also try fastboot, in which case the display will read "fastboot USB".

If that doesn't solve your problem, please give us more details.

P.S. - You shouldn't have opened a new thread, as there are already lots of threads on this matter.

I successfully installed Android Revolution HD 3.1.1 on my HTC Sensation, but now I've lost root. When an app (e.g., Titanium Backup) asks for root rights, it gets denied. BusyBox is installed, and the phone was rooted previously. What could be going on?? Could I really have "lost" root? (I didn't think it was even possible to be running Revolution HD and not be rooted!)

Thanks....

---------- Post added at 09:31 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:55 AM ----------

Running Root Check, I get the following error report:

Root Access is not properly configured or was not granted.

Superuser.apk - com.noshufou.android.su - version 3.0-beta4 is installed!

System Environment PATH: /sbin /vendor/bin /system/sbin /system/bin /system/xbin

I double checked, and /system/bin/su is there but /system/xbin/su is not. So it seems that somehow su is not configured correctly, but I'm not sure what to do about it. Help!?

lost root on 6.1.3?

I just installed Revolution HD 6.1.3 with full wipe (upgrading from 5.1.x).

I noticed that /etc/hosts file only contains 1 entry for localhost, when I installed adfree, superuser crashes.

Root checker shows the same as above. Could I lose root?

Looked into downloaded 6.1.3 rom zip and it contains only localhost entry in /etc/hosts.

How can it be? Any ideas?

Thanks.

Got root back

The problem was in superuser version 3.0.4 (which is bundled with revolution hd 6.1.3). Found 3.0.2 version, cleared data of 3.0.4 (Settings-Application-Superuser, stop app, clear data), installed 3.0.2 and root is back.
