[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] whoknowes:
I am having the identical problem with AT&T, I called to complain about data speeds on Monday the 13th, they "fixed" the problem by sending out some new updates... after that, no hot spot or tethering option, only a msg. saying this has not been provisioned. I called on Tuesday the 14th, and one of their senior tech support rep's, tried to get me to change to a DATA PRO plan instead of the unlimited plan I have, after the call, the wifi worked but the tether still didnt... I called back on the 15th, and again, almost an hour phone call, I mentioned to the "tech suport rep" this is likely a problem with the tethering manager, she said she had never heard of it and proceeded to do a Google, and Yahoo search on the tethering manager and said she couldnt find anything.... its Really annoying when you know more than the people you call for help... I'll give them a day or two to figure it out and then im going to root again,(lost root after 2.3.5 upgrade)and delete the tethering manager....

Tried to tether then the phone didn't connet to internet: on AT&T

I have a T989 unlocked with AT&T simcard. Everything was working well on the phone until I tried to tether. I didn't know about the tether manager issue: here's what happened to me, I'll be brief.

Once I opened it I got the message that I wouldn't have access to web in the phone (with I thought it was weird cuz I also have a Vibrant unlocked on AT&T and it did both) but I went ahead.. then got this message saying unregistered sim, the the manager closed.

After I had somewhat no data on the phone. It would open some pages, some not, apps wouldn't work, It was driving me crazy.. I RESET the phone..

-I tried the sim on my vibrant and everything was working so it wasn't a network issue-

After the reset still the same problems, don't know why cuz I RESET the device...

After reading this post I purchased Titanium backup pro, Froze the tethering manager,... Boom!! I seem to have data on the phone again.

Everything was working until I opened that freaking manager.... well It seems that that mistake cost me $6.58 but I have to say that at least I didn't have to get rid of the phone..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Mystic_:
I had almost the same problem. I was on rooted stock with the 2.3.6 and tether worked fine from the built in option (in settings). I started with a couple of different ROMs (ok more than just a couple), and it worked for some time, then just quit and started redirecting me telling me I didn't have the "Tethering" plan, which is included with these phones (for free) at least as far as I am aware.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jpnelson40:
I signed up for the tethering plan some months ago, and it worked fairly well for WiFi hotspot, but the USB tethering kept cutting in and out, reactivated each time by using the browser on the handheld (T989) for some reason. When I went to the local T-Mobile store to get an accessory, the sales person studied my plan and offered a newer one called "Unlimited - Premium with Smartphone Mobile HotSpot Service" for 25.00 per month (atop my "Unlimited Value--Talk + Text" for 49.99 per month). She seemed to think that the old tethering plan wasn't needed now. I didn't think to ask if my contract is extended, since it was only a few months old anyway, and I am happy with the Galaxy S II for a couple of years.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Art77:
can somebody point me in the right direction, had stock rom rooted did't worked , installed tether 2.0.7 didn't worked either , it connect's but it only last for a few secounds then it disconnects, installed BeastMOD v5.0 rom and the same happens ..somebody pllzzz
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] FastJoe78:
Download google voice...its a better app , it works over WIFI, and the only bad thing is you cannot gain access from the dialer(Hitting the VM button or holding down 1 still bring you to tmo VM) but can just use a short cut from a homescreen or open app from notification bar

WIFI Tethering is now working anymore

I meant to say WIFI Tethering is NOT working anymore

Hello... I am on GB and rooted... I deleted Tethering Manager previously and it worked great... until a month later T-mobile adds started popping up... been looking all over try to get my tethering to work again without having to pay for the data THAT I had already paid. any suggestions? or do I need to move on to ICS?:confused::confused:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] martybg:
SAME THING HERE

Okay so when I signed up my contract I was on a plan with unlimited Data. I'm never using more then 2 GB, I use the tethering so rarely and yesterday I turned it on because I needed to check something on one website and I got to T-Mobile Page saying that I have to update (wtf?) I already paid for my data, who are they to decide how and where I can use my data? They don't know what the heck they're doing.

I never had any issues like this before, I was tethering just fine and now they suddenly decided that I need to update my plan? Well hell no I'm not going to do it.

So let's pick this thing apart and figure out how to tether without going to their stupid - UPDATE ME page. Mofos what a lame thing they did, I'm so disappointed from T-Mobile right now. (Yea let's do it let's make a couple extra cashhhhhh, it wouldn't hurt rightt??)

I've read that it would work if I delete Tethering Manager or Tethering Provisions with Titanium Backup, I'm on official Stock ICS rooted / I deleted Tethering Provisions only because I don't have Tethering manager in my apps and still nothing - I'm still gething redirected.

I just want to mention that when I deleted Tethering provisions (I restarted the phone, the tethering worked for like 5 minutes and then stopped working again).

So anyone have any ideas how to stop them from screwing around with their clients?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UndeadCircus:
Hey all,

Just curious - are there any tutorials anywhere that walk you through building your own ROM for the EVO from the AOSP project? I'd like to get into building my own so that I don't have to rely on other's updates, etc.

Thanks!

Ricky

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UndeadCircus:
Seriously? Does everyone need to include the line, "I've already tried searching." in the original post so that an absolutely unnecessary and obvious answer isn't the first one posted? If so, then..

I've already tried searching.

I continue to come up with bull**** posts about building AOSP for other phones. I've searched all morning and haven't come up with anything, hence, the creation of the thread. Thanks for attempting to be a smartass, though.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Concordium:
Actually yes, it would help that we know you've already searched. Forgive me for seeing that the vast majority of people who post questions do so without searching and not knowing that you, miraculously, were not amongst said majority. Thanks for succeeding at being an ungrateful prick. :)

And just an FYI, seeing as how you apparently have no experience on the topic, at least that's what your poorly specified post implied, you would be able to learn a lot about the process of creating your own ROM from the search results I posted. Just because it doesn't say "HTC Evo" on it doesn't mean there is no experience or wisdom to be gained from it. Try doing what the rest of us do. Read what resources are available and then start experimenting with it until you can find someone who can give more specific direction. There will be difference between phones but you can still get the basis for working with Android based systems. Otherwise, we'll be seeing another thread like this from you when you get a new phone. I tried to help as best I could. I'm sorry it wasn't to your satisfaction.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] UndeadCircus:
It was actually far from being satisfactory. Forgive me, but why in the holy hell would I learn to develop for a phone that I don't have? Honestly. Once the source is built and created, what am I going to do with said source? Not a damn thing. I have no phone to install it to. Building for a phone that I own would be more help to me then building for a phone that I do not own.

Maybe if most of the people around here took a second to actually help someone, there wouldn't be a problem with the vast majority of smart asses replying with a search link. Don't try and convince yourself that you're being helpful and expect me to say "thank you." You're far from it.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alaman68:
Search for dsixda rom kitchen. That will help you get started.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cowsquad:
The guy was trying to help you. You are stupid man sorry but people like you desrve ****. He was giving you a link, you should ve said thank you for that. With your attitude the only thing you'll get is F..
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Concordium:
You're right. All Android phones run on the Linux based Android operating system. So what on earth could you possibly learn from a thread about a phone that uses the same operating system? Like I said, the phones each have some differences but the overall basis of how the system works is the same. So yes, the threads I posted are helpful. They contain enough information to get you started in the right direction until you can find information that reviews the specific differences that you can then apply to the Evo. If you could get over yourself for a minute or two in order to open your mind you'd be able to realize that. You're the one that came here with questions. Seems kind of naive to pick and choose which answer you want to hear and then whine about the ones you don't understand.

Either way, I gave you something helpful. It's up to you whether or not you choose to use it. Best of luck to you.

Edit: People on this site, myself included, do nothing but help each other. If you can't see that then the problem is not with this site. The problem is with you.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cherokee4Life:
I'm with him

I have been wondering this same question as I pondered to develop my own ROM, this link was actually helpful. Sometimes people overlook things and its helpful to get a second opinion, which is why I believe this entire Q&A thread exists. So it is puzzling to me why would come here to get a second opinion and then ***** out the first person to try to help.

I just can't understand why you ask for help and then criticize help... And this is why XDA needs a "Negative Thanks" button.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Concordium:
The only problem with a negative thanks button is that people like UndeadCircus would be pressing negative thanks all the time because they didn't like, or don't understand, the answer they were given. People are a lot more willing to toss out negativity than they are optimism and gratitude. In the end I see it like this; My responsibility here is to help others to the best of my ability. People can either be open minded to the help given here and see all the opportunities laid before them or they can remain closed minded and in the end not gain as much knowledge as they otherwise would have. Either way, I've done my job and the decision on whether or not to take advantage of it is on them.

Im very familiar with cm7 cm8 and cm9 roms. Also steel and monster. Can someone give me a quick education on the xt's? not too familiar with the advantage of these roms/ what the function of them are etc..
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
uhm... what?
[Motorola Droid 3] MyDrodonWall:
Xt862 xt860 and so on and so forth, are NOT roms.
[Motorola Droid 3] jarzy00:
Okay thank you. I was just wondering. I have no clue what they are. If they arnt roms what are they? Sorry for the noob question here: p appreciate your replys
[Motorola Droid 3] DoubleYouPee:
XT862 = droid 3

XT860 = canadian version of droid 3 with GSM (non-verizon)
[Motorola Droid 3] jarzy00:
wow lmao. Its that simple? I oughta delete this post.. thats embarrassing. Haha
[Motorola Droid 3] Seirÿu:
Its important to be aware of this.

flashing roms built for different models will brick you, and have to flash the sbf back. All cooks should probably make sure its listed on their op's which models they're built for. Although I think 99% of our current roms are built around the vzn d3 model (XT862)
[Motorola Droid 3] Willis111:
It's actually 100% of the roms being based around the verizon d3 (xt862) for the moment, broader userbase = more devs. Another important difference is software update availability, afaik Bell still has no plans to update their d3 which verizon did last month I think.
[Motorola Droid 3] Seirÿu:
My bad, thought I saw a ROM that had xt863 build involved.... although never heard/seen xt863 before that... lol
[Motorola Droid 3] The Solutor:
Not a big advantage for GSM users, given that most of the D3 and D2g developers are CDMA users and don't care a lot about the world outside the US, and even if they care they aren't able to do any test because the GSM is blocked in the US.

So, for the GSM users, D3 and D2g are making sense only if the price is way lower than the one required for the GSM cousins (which is my case for the record)
[Motorola Droid 3] coreless88:
Still, the are some developers who care about GSM users, or living in Europe so they have to care, like me =] .

Right now I am using a 3G enabled Droid 3 in Turkey, on GSM network, with AOSP Cyanogen Mod!

But as for now, I cannot post into Dev boards. As soon as I can, I will post it under Hashcode's thread.
[Motorola Droid 3] Hashcode:
coreless88 feel free to email me: hashcode0f@gmail.com and we can talk about your changes and if they can be merged back into the main build to support a ROM with both CDMA and GSM functionality.
[Motorola Droid 3] coreless88:
PM Sent,

However even after I passed the "10 posts rule", I cannot submit a post to Dev forums.

I would like to contribute to Droid 3 Community even more, but for that to happen I need access to Dev forums. Can anybody point out what is wrong with my acount?
[Motorola Droid 3] Hashcode:
I think the # is 20 now but they never updated the message / warning.

Your version has it's own thread in the Dev section. Feel free to add to it or reserve the 2nd post.
[Motorola Droid 3] The Solutor:
Glad to hear that, thanks for your efforts.
[Motorola Droid 3] Camspanners:
Just fyi, there's no cm8 as source code for honeycomb wasn't released, and no cm9 till ics source code is released

Just to make sure you are on a XT862 or XT860??
[HTC EVO 3D] RedWingsFan:
At my new office they have a WiFi network set up for just smartphones. While connected, I can access the internet, use my facebook app, and use many other apps that require the internet.

The problem I am having is I do not receive my push emails (I use the stock Gmail app) while connected to this WiFi network. If I do a manual refresh inside Gmail, it will update fine. But nothing comes through otherwise. Another thing to add is I can't sign on to Talk either while on the WiFi network.

My guess is they have Google Talk blocked which affects push email. I remember the days of the EVO 4G when people were upset at the Talk process running in the background even though Talk was signed out. The reason was the Talk process running had something to do with Gmail push emails. Am I right?

So are there any work arounds to avoid the conflict?

I would just run it on 3G, but there is very bad 3G coverage in the building.
[HTC EVO 3D] RedWingsFan:
Anyone?...................
[HTC EVO 3D] joeykrim:
My best guess, would be to check out logcat while logged into the Wifi network. I would hope there is some type of error or debugging out put there showing Android isn't able to either authenticate properly due to the way they're filtering traffice or GTalk isn't able to authenticate thus causing Android to not be able to sync. Ideally, Android will output the exact or close to exact url it is uses to authenticate which is being blocked and that'll help you understand the impact from the Wifi network filtering.

those are just some thoughts off the top of my head. hope that helps!
[HTC EVO 3D] Rydah:
Probably. Mine is at work.

[HTC EVO 3D] RedWingsFan:
After looking at the log, I see the Gtalk is trying to use port 5228 which some companies have blocked. It would be nice to be able to switch the port to 443 for Gtalk and/or gmail but I don't think that is possible with our phones. :(

[PROBLEM SOLVED -- DISREGARD POST]

I had to unroot my EVO to hand it to Sprint for a hardware repair. Rooting it again was problematic for some reason, but after dozens of failed Unrevoked attempts on OS X, finally Unrevoked on Windows worked...

...except, now that I want to flash a custom ROM, I don't see a nandroid backup option. Heck, I don't see anything indicating I have a custom recovery. I placed RA v2.3's PC36IMG.zip in my root directory and accepted the update on reboot, but still nothing looks different in the recovery screen.

What am I missing here? Thanks in advance for anyone's help.

Hi!

I have a huge Problem i think

Well, wanted to install the Galnet Miui on my SGS2, so i looked it up in the GalnetMiui-forum and found the guide for it.

I have (had) no experience and so i tired to root it. Somehow i managed to flash a new firmware on my phone and stupid as I was I did not write the original data down...

Now I have the wrong firmware (wrong kernel also) on my SGS2 (it still works though..) but I cant load the Galnet Miui or load ClockworkMod..

Is there any chance to find out what my original firmware (kernel) is?

I looked it up for 2 days now on the internet and did not really find anything useful..

[Omnia 7 General] mb706:
So, I was eagered to update my phone with the new SFR-FR update, got it all set.

It started all with the 8018001E error I got when trying to update to this update, so I thought I would just leave it, and I changed my carrier to 000-88.

Then I saw there was another method to update, with the WP7 Cab Sender and the update as a .cab file. Tried this one out when I was still being debranded (000-88), this time the installation failed with error 80180011.

Then (oh dear), I downloaded the Samsung Update Tool from the Omnia 7 support page, and installed a update (or something). Now I tried the official way again (changing carrier to SFR-FR, then Zune update), this time I got the 80180097 error! Yes its raining errors today.

After the Samsung Update Tool thingy, my phone couldn't connect to any network, or sometimes it's connecting to my KPN network for a few moments.

I am tired of this all, all I wanted was to install a few OEM updates, now I end up with this. Can anyone help me out? Really appreciated!

So I've got a Bell GT-P7500M 4G and I want to root it, and before I do that I'd like to create a dump of my factory rom/kernel/anything else I can backup before messing with it. I've been looking around to see if any of this is available, however I can't seem to find anything. I'm also wondering which rooting process & files I should use for this device.

Thanks,

Richard
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 General] handsom_dick:
So I got adventurous and try to get this working on my own, here's what I did.

Installed clockwork recovery 4.0.0.4 using Odin. I used the files found in the tabrooteasy.zip

did a backup of the device using cwm.

used the 3g rooting process described in the main post. I tried the 4g one first, however the tablet would no longer turn on or enter cwm. I then tried the downloader mode which did work so I plugged into my comp and reinstalled clockwork mod using Odin. once I could enter cwm again I restored my previous backup.

Then I tried using the 3g root process which worked oerfectly, and I then installed the pershoot kernel which also works with the bell tab.

I hope this is helpful to anyone else who has the bell tablet that wishes to root their device.

Thanks
