This is a known thing with ATT. There is a reasonable use clause in your TOS that you signed. They are cracking down users using a large amount of data. They have even began throttling users once they get to a certain point of data use. As for the tethering. This is due to the large amount of data you are using. Not much you can do short of calling the main number and telling them your not tethering but are streaming and even then you will still get throttled after a point.
[General Questions and Answers] Stadsport:
Thanks for posting this. Several months ago when AT&T started cracking down on people tethering on jailbroken iPhones, there was a lot of discussion about whether they were actually detecting tethering or were just assuming that high data usage = tethering. A few people provided pretty solid evidence that showed AT&T could probably detect if someone was tethering if they really tried, but nothing definitive. It's kind of nice to see more evidence that they're just assuming that high data = tethering.
[General Questions and Answers] Visual360:
Apology for posting this on the wrong forum, and thanks for moving it on to the right one.

I really believe AT&T is just going by the high data use. It's amazing how they even wording it the way they do it.

Anyway, just sad and irritating at once.

I also just ordered the Galaxy Note, but with this happening I'm really considering switching carrier. Probably not worth the hassle though. lol.

Thanks all.
[General Questions and Answers] Stadsport:
I probably would have stayed on AT&T and stuck it out for a GSM Nexus, but I had pretty consistenly poor signal issues on AT&T. Just depends how much your unlimited data is worth to you.

If you're going to buy a phone outright, I would just run it on a GSM MVNO instead of getting stuck with a contract/high prices.
[General Questions and Answers] acfrazier:
I didn't do this for a multitude of reasons. I bought the phone outright (unlocked) from Apple, walked down to the AT&T corporate store, and said: "Can I set up no-contract service with this device?"

They told me I could, it was still postpaid service. I dislike prepaid service intensely since they seem to treat you like scum.

Recently bought a Samsung Galaxy SL I9003, Successfully rooted then tried to install some custom ROM. Got to have XXKPH so I Flashed it with Odin (XXKPM Previously).

After Flashing, Just stuck at the screen with the Samsung Logo after the animation plays. Nothing else.

I tried googling that they said have to untick the Re-Partition while Flashing but problem not solve eventhough after i reflash it....

Hi all, :)

I need help deciding which custom ROM to flash to my i9003, but i want one that has full Arabic support and a good camera firmware. If possible, please post images of ROMs you recommend, any help is appreciated :)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] bscraze:
Good camera- gingerbread has dim video recording, so choose a froyo custom rom. Maybe cranium 3.1(I tink its froyo, not sure) and should have Arabic(again, I'm not sure). Check out the android dev section for that rom, and also I believe you can add Arabic patch to any cRom.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] xxxstar123:
hello mate,

Well if you not interested in video record, I suggest for you Cyanogenmod 7 it is so smooth and stable with some issue that can be fixed soon, like video record, apps can't use mic.

this is my chose

and have fun :)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Mirokasber:
@bscraze Thanks for your response. Ive been reading a little about Cranium 3.1, and i'm about to flash it but i had a question related to the instructions given by sakindia123:

he says clean flash to XXKPH, so can i flash to JPKP5 instead? it is exactly the same version of gb but just different region (language)

maybe anyone can answer my question without having to start a new thread over it :D

thanks..
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Mirokasber:
I've read about Cyanogenmod as well, but i think im gonna give Cranium Rom a try. Thanks anyway :)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] bscraze:
I don't think so, there's no reason not flash to xxkph, unless you're sim locked. If you still want to try, go ahead, I'm not sure weather it will work. If it doesn't you can always reflash, as it will result in a soft brick at most

Sent from my GT-i9003 powered by MIUI:D
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] supergaijin:
cranium is GB, not froyo. don't flash the rom without upgrading to GB first. (I see that was mentioned that you know it's GB, so just a warning...). in addition, if you haven't seen it yet and you want to use push mail notification, GB has a bug on all ROMs that keeps it from working properly. if you don't need it, then flash away!
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Mirokasber:
The reason i dont want to flash to xxkph is that it doesnt support Arabic :/
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Mirokasber:
Actually i do need the push mail notification, but i hate the Froyo keyboard, copy/paste options and some other things.. bottom line: i'll stick to GB (thanks for warning)

BUT i want it custom GB (i chose Cranium) and i'm facing the language issue mentioned above

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] bscraze:
Remember to do a full wipe before and after flashing(for safety) and you may want to flash a custom kernel after that, maybe xda bam or uc kernel, and remember to wipe cache and dalvik before and after flashing the kernel.

Remember that if you can't boot your phone but can access download mode, don't panic, just do a reflash. Eg. Reflash kpq.

PS. I recommend uc kernel v9 2009 or 1009 or 3009 if your phone can handle the overclock. Also, custom roms are definitely better than stock roms :D have fun flashing :D:p;)

Just take care and keep you're phone in the inner pocket of your jacket. I had mine with me every day while I was snowboarding and it worked fine and still does. I took pictures and made videos without issues. The temperatures were -10°C and it won't get much colder here for now I think. I guess what might happen is that the touch screen will be not as responsive as usual due to cold fingers. Just don't drop it in the snow ;)

Is it only me noticing that scroll is laggy in ICS roms, both sammy leaks and cm9, compared to stock GB?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sxi200:
Yes, that's because source code hasn't been released in the case of cm9, and because the Sammy rom's are leaks and are still a work in progress. They will become much smoother when officially released and source code is available.

Lag??

I'm on the latest CM9 and running real smooth for me!!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pat123:
What the OP is referring to here is not LAG, it is slow inertia while scrolling. This is the characteristic of ICS and is not something observed only on Galaxy S2 (people have been complaining about it on GNex as well). It is totally different from how it was in GB where just a slight flick would result in fast scrolling. In ICS, you have to flick more times to reach the bottom of the list. However, I also like the GB implementation better and have been looking for a hack/mod which would fix it, but AFAIK there is none so far!
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] irbswat:
You might be using XXKP8 or older version of Sammy, Those builds have lags. Instead go for [IML74K] ROMs they have better scrolling.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cdmackay:
I'm on an S1 (i9000), so perhaps not directly comparable, but I have this exact issue with THS CM9 alpha build 16 ICS ROM, which is marked IML74K (whatever that means?).

Scrolling itself is perfectly smooth, but scroll "flicking" feels like it has considerably more friction that on GB.

I'm sure it's down to personal taste, but I wish it were configurable. I much preferred the GB behaviour.

Hello *@*,

I intentionally discharged my GN to a battery level of 1% today to record the charging time just for myself. Then I thought: why not make a graph out of it and share it with XDA? :cool:

Total charging time (1% to 100%): 142 minutes

Level checked at 0, 30, 60, 90, 120, 125, 130, 135, 140 and 142 minutes

WiFi On, 3G On, Sync On, Screen Off, no calls/msgs/notifications received, phone not used except for % check

All capacitors acts this way (a battery is also a capacitor) the charge/discharge is always fsstest to 63% both ways and after that it slowes down.. this can ofcourse be monitored and controlled with soft or hardware. But this is the reality of capacitors :-)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NexusDro:
isnt it bad for the battery when it is not designed to receive charge that quickly?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Valynor:
All about charging LiIon batteries: http://batteryuniversity.com/learn/article/charging_lithium_ion_batteries

TL;DR:

LiIons are charged in two main stages:

- stage 1 with constant current, that's the fast charging rate for (roughly) the first 2/3 of the batteries capacity

- stage 2 with constant voltage and a tapered charge current for the last 1/3 of the batteries capacity, that's the slow part where the graph flattens

This is necessary because a LiIon battery is full at exactly 4.20 V and can not handle any overcharge. In fact at ~4.55 V (only + 0.35 V!) the battery would "vent with flame" aka explode.

If you wanna do this on purpose, this is what will happen: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YCWdnjLqVWw

Using a more powerful charger can work if the electronics inside the GN handle the higher current properly. I wouldn't recommend it, though. It may charge quicker but it will wear down your battery faster as well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wonshikee:
The phone can only draw up to 1A regardless of much higher the charger is.

So if you're buying a charger, don't bother paying extra for a 2A, but there is no harm in using a 2A charger if you already have one.

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Valynor:
Stock charger is 5V/1A (=5 watts). There may be some leeway built into the GN's charging electronics so it can utilize more than 5 watts, but you can safely assume that Samsung would have packaged this phone with a 10 watt charger if it was safe (or desirable in terms of charging time vs. battery durability). Charging time is an important aspect after all.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wonshikee:
FYI, 1% a min is roughly 1A.

In 1 hour, it would restore 60%, 60% of 1.750A = 1.050A.

Nexus battery is the perfect size to eyeball the inflow rate.

30%/hr = .5A

60%/hr = 1A

60%/30min = 2A

If you think you're charging at 2A, simply time it. Also these are rough numbers and will only be accurate when the battery is low.
