I mean that when I try to tether, I get forwarded to a site to confirm billing of a tethering plan. I can't tether anymore for some reason.
[myTouch 4G General] jr_718:
Wow.. sorry to hear that.. am on a custom Rom(darkside and capy's).. I just literally tried tethering like 5min ago and no problems..
[myTouch 4G General] dave.caldera:
I can confirm that I was just forwarded to a TMO page telling me to add a tethering plan. Looks like they have just gotten smarter. I used the built in Wifi Hotspot app built in to the Virtuous Affinity Rom, tried the Wireless Tether app, same thing. Im gonna download Barnacle from the Market lets see what happens.
[myTouch 4G General] jr_718:
Ok.. let me know what's up..
[myTouch 4G General] dave.caldera:
No go on Barnacle either. I had the My Account app installed when I was running this. I had push messages sent to my handset from TMO. I have now done a fresh installed of Virtuous Affinity, and not installed the My ACcount app. Lets me give it another go.

No go either. This sucks royally
[myTouch 4G General] jr_718:
I guess they have your account on lockdown.. try downloading WiFi tether search google..
[myTouch 4G General] dave.caldera:
Tried that one as well.

I was on the CM forum, and some people have been having the same problems. Apparently you have to change your User-agent in order to use. They recommend Firefox with IE8 user agent, or simply use https instead of http. I'll try later. but now I can't **** around at work. lol

[myTouch 4G General] JesseMT4G:
Mine is still working just fine. I don't get no where near 5g though, so never had throttled speeds. I just use the hotspot for my Kindle Fire. I guess I will eventually know if i shouldn't be doing it, lol!
[myTouch 4G General] pinguo777:
Just use firefox or any other browser other than IE and u can avoid the 14.99 charge. There is no avoiding the throttle if u reach your gigabyte limit so go for the 5gb or 10gb plan.

Hi,

Is there a way to close all task when i shake the phone ?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] liorlevy:
Never mind - found it...

shake task killer

thanks anyway guys
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slig:
There are many articles about how pointless is blind task killing under android. When You kill tasks your phone has to start them again when needed and uses battery for that. Also accelerometer gestues drain significant amount of power. By using such app You do much more harm than good. And one more thing - having plenty of free ram is also pointless, unused ram is a wasted ram. Android can take care of himself very well (background apps are terminated automaticaly when resources are needed), You should just be careful not to install some rogue app that keep phone awake when screen is off - betterbatterystats will help You here. Remember that smartphone is not a PC and android is not Windows. It's not a coincidence that android apps does not have "close" button like apps on PC - they don't need it.

[XPERIA X8 General] rayji:
Use connectify
[XPERIA X8 General] corsav6:
set up and ad hoc connection, then connect through phone wifi. Open network and sharing in win 7 and set up new connection, choose ad hoc and follow the steps. I forget how in win xp but google is only a tab away :)
[XPERIA X8 General] dipusen:
All are so much talked methods but none them worked. Have you tested these process in your phones???

I tried and none of them worked. Connectify didnt worked and AdHoc just reboot the phone while getting IP. In GDX, GingerCruz, GingerXperia and Ginger Cyborg. Hahahaha

Have any new idea?
[XPERIA X8 General] goldbugbee:
i also tried to share my laptop internet through wifi with X8, but failed, i was reading a lot about this virtual wifi adapter on win 7 and i tried connectify, Virtual Router, mHotSpot etc ( almost everything possible, command line too) but no good result, but in Connectify i was able to established a wifi connection with laptop, and connectify software showed no errors, but couldn't load any web pages or market, there must be a error in somewhere and till today i couldn't able to find it.

Did anyone got this working successfully, please share it with us....

thanks
[XPERIA X8 General] corsav6:
I use Kuyadroid and I used to get reboot when screen timed out on ad hoc but with newest version I have very fast and stable connection. I suggest you try it out yourself, it's cwm and xrec so easy install and OC to 691mhz gives smooth games and scrolling plus great battery life.

Set up an unsecured ad hoc network for testing and clear all your remembered wifi settings on x8.
[XPERIA X8 General] dipusen:
ok, great news. i will try.
[XPERIA X8 General] boscharun:
For almost any OS other than Windows 7 - you need to root your phone, add ad-hoc network support and create a shared wifi connection in your PC.

For windows 7, you can use virtualrouter to share internet with android -

It would have been very easy if android supported ad-hoc. But unfortunately they don't (even iphone supports adhoc) and from various threads, they don't seem to have any plans to support it in future as well.
[XPERIA X8 General] bogdan_mihai554:
The best thing you can do is BUY a Wi-Fi router. They're really cheap now, and you can connect many things at them.

[Milestone 2 General] StevePritchard:
I don't think the use of the word "merger" makes any material difference to what were already aware of. Google plans to operate Motorola Mobility as a separate entity, and states it won't favour it over other manufacturers. This was a purchase for the numerous Motorola patents it holds.

Although I hope it will make a difference to Motorola's device support and updates, etc, I don't think it will - certainly in the short term.

Hi everyone,

I have a Asian build HTC Desire Z from Singapore. I have previously prem-root the phone. Today i tried to flash the rom to the new Bulletproof MIUI rom but after flashing it using the latest Clockworkmod Recovery, the phone keep restarting after the MIUI start screen.

I went back to Clockworkmod Recovery and realises there is a problem mounting the "/cache", "/system" etc.. Here's some of the info i manage to see..

VISION PVT SHIP S-OFF

E: Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log

I read in some thread to use a PC10IMG.zip to restore back the original rom. I tried to flash this using Clockworkmod Recovery. And the next reboot i got a new problem:

SD Checking...

No image!

No image or wrong image!

After a while, i got this:

Press <POWER> to reboot.

Can some kind soul please advise me what i can do now? I am really lost..
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] noneabove:
Try taking the PC10IMG off of your SD card and then boot into recovery and install CM7 or something, just to see if that works

My best guess would be this: The PC10IMG was applied, but you cannot apply it again, however you can`t get past bootloader if you have a PC10IMG on your SD card so see if you can get into clockwork again if you take it off
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rirozizo:

someone pls help...
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brashmadcap:
See if you can put a rom zip directly on the sd card by putting it into a computer and then flash it on the phone through CWM
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cjward23:
I'm afraid this means that your emmc is fried. I suggest going to the #g2root irc channel and they will be able to confirm it for you.

I know this is a wide issue on many devices, but i could not find one for the Galaxy Note.

So here it is (and sorry if the answer is allready out there):

i roomed my phone, before i even knew what i was doing. I started the phone, and everything went nice. And then i tried to update the OS without using rooting, which appairently did not work. So i factory reset my Note, and it got stuck on bootscreen (the samsung logo). I have figured out (or atleast i thing) that the OS is missing, or something like that. So i downloaded it from a forum page here on XDA. The thing is i can't figure out how to put it on the phone. I tryed using ODIN. Any clue of an easy way to do this?

Thanks in advance

There is no best ROM it what best works for each individual. My favorite is ABSOLUTION 2.0. I also dont mess with the radio I love the ATT Stock updated radio .03_M with it. I dont mess with recommended radios cause I've had issues with dropped calls.

1. Absolution 2.0

2. Coredroid 8.1

[Off-topic] Krooked22:
Hahahaha I'd rather not waste my time, seeing as how all the info you need is right on the first page of the development section.

Each of the questions you asked even has its, own thread, conveniently organized in top to bottom fashion. Very organized, so that the user can find the desired info quickly and easily.

Each thread will also come with a tutorial.....these, tutorials will wall you through whatever you need to do, it will hold your hand and guide you through it, to prevent the user from screwing up. The authors will even use bold capitalized lettering to emphasize the severity of some of the steps you take, and giving you the needed fair warnings, explaining that they Are not responsible for you're phone if out beaks.

What this means is If you're phone breaks, 99% of the time said user did not follow instructions.

clockwork mod is the tool you see recommended to flash, restore, and back up roms. It can be found on the Market. Of you do not know what something is or what a certain setting does, then don't mess with it.

At the end of the day I wasted 10 minutes of my life, typing on small cellphone, using sword with humongous hands and thumbs (excuse any typos) to answer some obvious questions that could have been found very easily....do you understand how my life would have been easier, had you just looked in the development section and answered you're questions
