I was reading this post.

It mentions that GTJ61 is the original Nexus S firmware for the US version of I9020A. It also says that GRJ22 is for the I9020A. Both of these builds are Android 2.3.4. What's the difference between them?

If I want to put my I9020A on Android 2.3.4, which build should I use?

From Engadget:

http://www.engadget.com/2011/09/21/sprint-reportedly-capping-its-mobile-hotspot-plans-october-2nd/

Emphasis mine:

According to the leaked memo, Sprint says that traffic generated on the phone is still unlimited, but using the built-in hotspot will now be limited. I wonder how this will affect people using wifi tether (who don't have a Hotspot plan to being with). Does wifi tether pass off tethered traffic as phone traffic? I mean, there shouldn't be a difference. Packets are packets...unless they do deep packet inspection and look at the browser strings.

[EVO 4G General] iwin2000:
Use a VPN when you use wifi tethering so they can't peek into your traffic, problem solved.
[EVO 4G General] thlinx:
These could just be rumors. I don't think sprint would of gone thought all that trouble in there commercials bragging about unlimited DATA, with examples of other CARRIERS with DATA caps. I don't there will be a cap...
[EVO 4G General] bigblueshock:
5GB cap on 3g/4g? How is that possible if they can't track 4G usage since 4G isn't through them? is it possible the can now?
[EVO 4G General] RevolutionaryPC:
just got off the phone with a Supervisor from the Sprint Customer Relations team where the supervisor said that they are not planning to discontinue the "Unlimited" Data hence the reason they are charging the $10 dollar Premium data, so that they can continue to provide the unlimited data services to its Subscribers.

-- Will upload the Recording Shortly and try to attach it to this Post.
[EVO 4G General] brownhornet:
I see some of you are still in denial that unlimited data is going to last forever.
[EVO 4G General] migjr415:
WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[EVO 4G General] fenixjn:
Not denial... it just does not make any sense that Sprint would sacrifice its last network feature this fast. Remember, they took away SP and all the perks with it, the last reason why anyone would stay on sprint is precisely the unlimited data usage. Sure their prices are lower compared to the other telcos (and not by much) but keep in mind that many complain about extremely low speeds and lack of coverage in many areas.

Removing the unlimited data plan would mean that they are no longer competitive when compared against the other telcos... their lower price would not be incentive to anyone to keep/open a contract with them and it implies they would promptly align their prices with the pricing of the other telcos little after, basically being one more in the bandwagon.

Until I receive an official letter from them informing me of this change I wont believe it.
[EVO 4G General] gqstatus0685:
The curse of the iPhone.

Sprint will eventually (in 2012) get rid of unlimited. Once the "revolutionary" phone drops on Sprint they will be waiting to gain subscribers, lock them in, and change. Bait and switch style.

I feel you on that! Kinda shopping around just in case that happens

[EVO 4G General] artificer224:
Besides it looking bad for them to be plugging their unlimited data and then pull it, are there numbers to look at so we can see what percentage of the subscriber base does more than 5Gb of data?
[EVO 4G General] pho75:
Chillax people, the unlimited HOTSPOT data is going away, not the unlimited phone data. Most people on this forum are rooted and get this for free anyway so it will have no affect. It is an omnimous sign though.
[EVO 4G General] paul85:
Seems pretty premature of you to evey say that the hotspot data is going away without any notice yet from sprint.

In short, the sky is not falling, everyone continue on with business as normal.
[EVO 4G General] j_shelton1988:
6 days into my new bill, already used 7gb of data. Granted its 3g, not tethering, but with smart phones its definitely easy to surpass 5gb. Sprint will eventually get rid of unlimited data and switch to caps like the other carriers. Even the ceo or whatever of Sprint, Dan hesse, fortold of a day in which cell phone plans would be priced on data usage, not minutes. That day is quickly coming.
[EVO 4G General] mbaseball3:
It's super easy to get up to 5gb of data. If you don't use WiFi. Flash a few Roms, watch some YouTube, view news everyday you're easily pushing 5gb's.
[EVO 4G General] ckoadiyn:
Reason I think he made that comment is they want to start using voip which would use data not minutes which if they switch to all data and drop the minutes they will be the first which others have said should be done as well least that's my guess and some others why else would they team up w Google for Google voice
[EVO 4G General] 350zx6r:
So this new sprint "law" will NOT affect rooted ppl? Are you guys positive they have no control over this?

---------- Post added at 08:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:57 PM ----------

And also if they decide to control they "unlimited" plan on smartphones we should be able to get out of their contract right?
[EVO 4G General] j_shelton1988:
If you have the hotspot hack, you shouldn't be affected, but if you're paranoid you can always use tether apps from the market. They cannot control that. I have used the tether app for a long time with no consequences.
[EVO 4G General] Evo4eva:
Just because the iPhone has supposedly killed unlimited data on the other networks does not mean by any means that it will kill it for Sprint. There's a bunch of you on this thread saying don't believe everything you read and then spouting nonsense about the iPhone taking away unlimited data. That's an ignorant generalization and the state Sprint is in now, there's no way they would completely get rid of unlimited data plans. They aren't really going to get that many new customers when the iPhone comes out anyway. Most of the people that want the iPhone are already on Sprint's network. Quit crying. As previously stated in this thread it's only the UNLIMITED HOTSPOT that is being done away with.
[EVO 4G General] 350zx6r:

Ok, in the article Sprint did not say they are capping the "unlimited" data plan. They said they will be capping the "unlimited" data using the Sprint Hotspot app. Which is bad enough that they charge customers $30 a month for, but to now tell those same customers that "we are still charging you $30 a month but now you can only use 5GB. Anything over we will make more money off you our valued customers by charging you another .50¢ per MB. Yes we love your money our dear valued customer."

"From the Voices in My Head"
[EVO 4G General] Evo4eva:
Another cryer,lol. I don't know many people that hit 5GB when tethering and the wireless tether app should still work. So once again, QUIT CRYING!
[EVO 4G General] :
What happened to other networks was that people were abusing the unlimited data while tethering. There isn't much of an issue with handsets producing the data. But sprint is in the testing grounds for a data fix. If they can get tethering under control it would be great. The 5gb amount was a way to basically say we know people don't pay and use it but we need to stay different from others so we are going to limit it. It is better than completely cutting unlimited data by far.

They are trying to reduce data but still keep our handsets with unlim data. By far they are trying to get things down and get short term fixes that will give them time to fix their issues on the network load/spectrum problems.

Not many people think a little deeper into the move.
[EVO 4G General] Jayavarman:
Will this apply to users of the WiFi Tether app?
[EVO 4G General] :
UNsure. It may or may not. But it says the actual hotspot app. I am unsure how that would go unless they use filters to figure it all out.
[EVO 4G General] fenixjn:
Unlikely... for now. I see in the near future sprint killing unlimited data on smartphones on the premises that less than 5% of their suscriber base use more than 5gb so everyone should not be affected by the change... idk... boost and other prepaid options sound more and more interesting...
[EVO 4G General] Evo4eva:
Sprint can't afford to drop unlimited data if they want to stay in the competition. The statement you just made is filled with ignorance. It doesn't matter how many people are using more the 5GB a month. All they have left is unlimited data. They are the only major company left that offers truly unlimited, unthrottled data. Also you do understand that BOOST IS SPRINT, so if for whatever reason Sprint does drop unlimited then so will Boost. Think before you type or speak. Sprint will not be dropping unlimited data for a long while. SO GET THE HELL OVER IT. Seriously, this thread was not for people like you to come in and whine about losing unlimited data when it hasn't even been hinted that Sprint is going to do that. It was to inform people that THE HOTSPOT will no longer be unlimited.
[EVO 4G General] :
Lol if only people read my posts and THOUGHT more into it we wouldn't have to deal with people who are ignorant like that one guy.

Anyways this post is right to. They will keep handsets unlimited but cutting on the tethering is what will help their network. Some people use 20-30gb on tethering.

Also a advocate for cutting unlim tethering my data isnt slow due to this its cause my town only has 3 sprint towers and i live a distance away. If I want my cell company to survive and keep offering good deals I would want them to employ fixes that wont hinder my handset...
[EVO 4G General] ckoadiyn:
This
[EVO 4G General] fenixjn:
Sure... ignorance... go ask to those in ATT and Verizon about how their 'unlimited' data got capped (even when these companies are far more profitable than sprint). I see a trend here... carriers are moving away from unlimited plans because it just makes sense financially to charge customers in tiered plans and overages. Sprint is a business and it is their duty to their stockholders to produce a measurable ROI. Sure, taking away unlimited data plans would limit their competitiveness in the market but should not be their financial doom unless they start imposing insane price hikes. The bottom line is that eventually their unlimited plans will just have to go in favor of tiered / bill per byte plans in order for them to stay in business.

The change is coming, it was never a matter of IF it is a matter of when and from the current outlook I would not be surprised if we see the end of the unlimited plans in 2012.
[EVO 4G General] bullpen7979:
This.

I was kinda wondering if wireless access via rooted phone would be noticed.
[EVO 4G General] Evo4eva:
Once again an epic fail statement. It seems that you know nothing about business. They will not drop their unlimited data for a very long time. It's the only thing that is profiting them and keeping them in the competition. If they dropped their unlimited data it would be more than their financial doom. They would have absolutely nothing over any company and they would crumble. So once again I beg you, for the good of this forum, please think before you type or speak. Like I stated in the previous post, you're just another one of the whiny little girls in this thread.
[EVO 4G General] fenixjn:
Yeah namecalling... nice comeback there. I'm done with this thread and with you.
[EVO 4G General] Evo4eva:
Lol,of course you are. You have nothing intelligent to contribute, so it's best that you are "done with this thread and me".
[EVO 4G General] :
If you don't have a major in business go ask someone who does because you don't believe those here.

Because frankly Sprint has been a Backbone ISP for awhile. Their infrastructure isn't exactly overloaded as it was with other companies. Verizon could have kept going but they have a huge user base that it doesn't matter at all if they cut it or not.

But for sprint it is different if they become exactly the same as others who would want to go to sprint. Who would want a data cap just like others. Who wants that? Are you telling me its the best move for sprint to be like others so they don't get new customers.

You are wrong. They need to be different so that the customers will flock to them. Those who use mass amounts of data with out tethering will likely come to sprint. Sprint may not be the best but they are doing what they can and working on their network. They are constantly looking for avenues to fix any issue.

They are cutting their hotspot unlimited data to help the problem. If you say its smart to be like others. then why haven't the guys with BUSINESS MAJORS that go in the BA and upper range decide to do this? You are the fool in all of this you have no concrete background. People with more education decided this.

So with that said. You are going to continue to argue I am wrong as well as anyone else who has been working on business, or has their majors already.

I am sick of people thinking they even know what it is like to run a company the size of sprint. It is ridiculous small company maneuvers have to be different they just cant do what the bigger companies do.
[EVO 4G General] Evo4eva:
Oh no, don't worry. He won't argue that your wrong. He's done with this thread. Remember ? I love the fact that everybody in this thread that's complaining about Sprint losing unlimited data,thinks that they know Sprint will drop down to tiered plans. I'm glad there's someone else in this thread that understands why Sprint won't do that. Especially after just spending so much on advertising stating the fact that they have the only truly unthrottled,unlimited data plans left.
[EVO 4G General] j_shelton1988:
Not trying to start anything but technically if you read the fine print sprint states that they have unlimited data up to 5gb and anything over that they can do whatever they see fit. Now I've never had problems considering I'm easily using 10+gb per month, but as far as being truly unlimited, there is no such thing.
[EVO 4G General] Evo4eva:
Doesn't matter what the fine print says. It's what they do that matters. If you have never had any problems then you didn't need to comment.
[EVO 4G General] ckoadiyn:

[Verizon Droid Charge] mfranz:
So I got my first android phone yesterday, a droid charge. I open the box in excitement turn it on call in the activation... load up a website, and bam "please insert sim card" so I went to the verizon store and they gave me a new one and it worked for about 5 minutes then same thing, so I followed some instructions I found to unofficially update it to gingerbread which was succesful but then I couldn't do anything without a sim card. So I try to go back to stock rom and I plugged it in to my computer got it in download mode the same as before hit start odin said finished pass in .5 seconds and now my phone is 100% completely unresponsive to everything. The only sign of life was some flickering of the backlights on the buttons. Anyone ever have this happen?
[Verizon Droid Charge] d-loko:
There have been known issues with the SIM getting fried due to flashing. You have to go back and just keep getting it replaced as they are pretty good about switching them out. You might want to keep the SIM out as a rule of thumb every time you flash in the future.

When you were in download mode, did you put the battery back in before flashing in Odin?
[Verizon Droid Charge] mfranz:
Idk if my wording was confusing but I flashed after the sim issue but thanks for the advice on the sim card. I did put the battery in but the phone slid off a surface and fell about 1 foot the battery and usb cord remained connected. I was told it was almost impossible to brick these to the point where it can't be fixed without JTAG, turns out my first time doing anything with an android phone I ruin a phone

As long as you have a stock rom on it will be fine, or if it's ACTUALLY hard bricked.

But I hav got the acurateam v1.2 rom I know its fast amd all good .. but duuno why but it eats

my battery like anything if I'm using facebook for like 5 mins it eats up almost 10% .. does anyone

else also has this problem or am I the only one.. plzz I ccant take my charger everywhere with me.. :(

Thanks in advance

First Charge to 100% and wipe batery stats in CWM or use battery calibrator from market.
[LG Optimus 3D] edehahn:
doing a wipe before installing a rom should not make in necessary to wipe battery stats since this is stored in /data - or am I wrong?

anyhow I do also experience higher battery usage with the new kernel (but using ThiaiZO3D V1.1)

from home to work I have about 40min by car. using speedview and GPS with the new kernel: about 78% of battery remaining. before with stock kernel was at least 84%

today I'm going to test same rom with stock kernel....

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dalmus:

Their USB network devices all have data caps. How is tethering from a phone rather than from a USB stick any different?
