Tethering is so 2010. With a GNote, why tether?

Btw, I pay for tethering but rarely use...only use for critical VPN required access. Actually work pays for the tethering.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Willthrill:
To freeze or uninstall can I use titanium backup or do I have to use tr PRO version?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jpeg42:
You don't have to, but you'll likely buy pro at some point. It is more than worth it to backup and restore applications in batch. Plus you help out the developer of an amazing program!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Willthrill:
So regular titanium will freeze or remove apps?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] paleh0rse:
The free version can be used to "uninstall" and backup apps; however, you will need the PRO (paid) version to "freeze" apps.

TiBu PRO is one of the most justifiable app purchases you will ever make.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Willthrill:
Ok great, what's recommended to freeze or uninstall
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] foxbat121:
If you purchased Pro version, freeze instead of unintall of all AT&T bloatwares. That way, you have a chance to restore them back if you need warranty service or need to apply official OTA updates. Recent OTA update on SGS2 fails if you have AT&T bloatware removed. So, it is nice to have the option to restore them. If you unintall them, you can't get it back.

i upgraded from my dell streak , love that phone , any how i down laoded tethering widg on that dell streak , and i could turn on usb or hot spot no problems never charged ex ,, when i put the same widg on the note it wold not hook up , when it would do the "verification" it would be declined ,, called and talk to them said i didnt have tethering and that i would need the 5g data plan, (50bucks) ,,,

what is jacked up about that is that im running on the unlimited plan from my old iphone , sorry i said it yes i had an iphone but only one ,, any how yes they are pushing to get people out of the unlimited and so on ,, not a fan of att at all but im stuck for now
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] paleh0rse:
It's ridiculously easy to get around their blocks and tether as much as you want. Just sayin'...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] SayWhat10:
so does ATnT crack down on people with unlimited plans tethering only?

or do they care about people with 3 and 5 gig plans trying to tether?

also, how can I make a link on my homescreen that willl take me right to the stock tether program?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Ship It City:
ok I am rooted and have Titanium Pro but can someone please explain how to freeze an app. I cant seem to find tethermanager or anything like it in my list of apps
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] cyris69:
What are your apn settings for tethering to 'bypass' the stock ones? I don't care if I lose lte for the most part since you can create as many apn profiles and just switch as you.need to
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] henrydcc:
DOUBT

My question is. If i can change the use apn 3gb more of the same or can i use only 3gb?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] SPtheALIEN:
Couldn't you just use the FoxFi app and not have to worry about rooting/freezing, etc?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] fellstar:
Step 1. Buy PDANET

Step 2. Enable Hide Tethering

Step 3. ???

Step 4. Profit!

I started using MIUI's innate tethering feature on my Captivate when I was running it and AT&T fired a warning shot across my bow.

Switched to PDANET and have never heard another word from them.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] PeteN:
Watch for Hidden APN

On the Stock ROM, watch out for a hidden APN named "ATT Entitlement" using apn="broadband" and type="dun". You need something like ApnManager from the market to see/remove hidden APNs (probably other ways, too!).

This APN (broadband) is there to catch people tethering...

It is NOT on SauROM - don't know about other ROMs.

FYI
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] georgiejr:
Try foxfi..no need to root. But I don't know whether AT&T can detect it.

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] harryzee:
Any help with the following would be appreciated.

I have print subscriptions to the following three magazines that I was able to pick up for my NC under the "Discounted Price for Active Print Subscribers Free" system: Time, Vanity Fair, and Entertainment Weekly.

No problems encountered at all with accessing any of them.

I recently did a paper subscription to Conde Nast Traveler on 2/15. After getting my e-mail acknowledgement, I used my new account number following the same process as I did for the others. All went well and "Traveler" appeared on my screen ready to download.

When I tried to d/l it, I got the following message:

"Unable to download. This item is currently not available for download to the product you are using."

I checked online at "My Nook" and the Traveler subscription reads exactly the same way as the other three.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bobstro:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lithoss:
Has anyone had any trouble getting the google voice voicemail set up on the VZW galaxy nexus? Whenever i get to the voicemail section it gives me the error

"Carrier config: unfortunately your network carrier is currently not supported for automatic configuration. To use google voice as your voicemail provider, please visit google voice help center for more information".

Going to the help center has nothing on how to manually set it up.... My droid 2 had no problem setting this up automatically... am I missing something?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sirgoob:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Lithoss:
I've done those steps, but they didnt work. The *71, *90 and *92 also didn't work in my situation.

I eventually ended up uninstalling on the phone, and deactivating and then reactivating the vvm from the web admin panel. The *71 number worked, and then reinstalled voice on the phone. It worked after that.

It seems that the error i posted in OP is present always for verizon. Still works if you manually dial the instructed number. Not sure why....
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] NoHolidaysForAHooker:
try to have someone call you and leave a voicemail message. i've only had my nexus for a couple days but i was able to set google voice up on the first day. i got the error that it couldn't be set up the normal way but in the settings and everything it looked ok and i had someone leave me a message and everything worked like it was supposed to.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bhawks23:
Hey I hate to bring up this old thread but Ive been troubleshooting this problem long enough so I figured I would ask here.

I'm having trouble getting google voice to work the way I want to. I set it up and it seems to work, whenever people leave me voice mails my google voice app pops up and transcribes it and gives me a notification of a new voice mail. But I cant seem to set custom voice mails for specific contacts. As a matter of fact I cant seem to change my voice mail at all...it just says my recorded name.

So I go on my computer to google voice and make changes to my voice mail greeting and these changes are not reflected in my phone. Also I call my google voice number on my phone and try to change the voice mail there but it also doesn't change it.

Sorry this is long and confusing but maybe one of you know what I'm talking about
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cablemike01:
galaxy nexus audio out is awsome, I've had several Android phones and nothing has such a powerful output as this phone. The bass is powerful and highs very crisp. I'm loving the phone more every day.

Yes this device has superb audio out quality thru a good set of headphones. Best of any phone ive owned.

Yeah, it's really good. People used to ***** that it didn't have the Wolfson DAP, but it performs quite well despite this.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] psycho2097:
Yea screw the wolfson, my sgs didn't sound this good even with voodoo. This just blows everything out when I load poweramp and pump up the bass a little.

Sent from my transformed tablet.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cablemike01:
Yeah my transformer has the olfsen with voodoo and it can't compete. The sheer power commingle out of this phone is incredible. I have bought 4 sets of headphones and they all dissapointed me until today when I tried them. On this phone and wow. Dub step sounds like it does in my truck. The bass rumbles my head yet every detail is crisp and clean. I've used those same headphones on my last 5 phones and was disappointed. HTC dream flat, galaxy s decent, atrix weak bass, lg optimus 3d too quiet, iPhone 4 flat, galaxy nexus like I'm connected to my Yamaha reciever.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ph00ny:
which can are you guys using?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Smokeey:
Agreed. This blows my old hTc out of the water. Even the headphones it came with sound good on this phone.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cablemike01:
I'm not impressed with beats headphones. I find they only focus on bass and highs and the mids are lacking as well as 3d imagery. I find the senheizer and bose headphones to be of much better audio quality covering the entire audio spectrum. I've been producing electronic dance music for years and no one I know in the industry takes the beats line of headphones seriously. Its all marketing.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] msavic6:
Any of you guys use the Klipsch S4a's? I'm debating spending the money on them. There $120 here in Canada.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ph00ny:
I've spent more money on audio related purchases than smartphones.... And blose I mean nose is not one of them
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] omersak:
If you like a bass oriented sound signature, then yes. The bass impact is huge but bloated and bleeds slightly into the mids. Sounds great on certain kinds of electronic music.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RogerPodacter:
Theres no lack of volume since the audio api is open. Hurts my ears its so loud.

---------- Post added at 10:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:34 PM ----------

Everyone knows that. But i'm saying this headset is different. Read the amazon reviews or any review you can find and see what i mean. Great $140 i spent for my phones.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JFMFT:
Absolutely agree w/this thread. I have a high-end pair of Shure in-ear headphones and the Nexus with the EQ turned on (I like various EQ settings on this phone) sounds crisp and clean, and has nice punchy bass.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] smanfly:
I think the nexus s was better in sound. I'm using beqts audio solo hd.

But the sound isbclear but not that bassy like nexus s
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zomb!e:
Lololol.

Wait, were you really serious? Pfffft.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nebucatnetzer:
The beats audio thingi in the HTC devices is nothing more then a smiley face preset. Donwload any equalizer app from the market and you can have the same "awesome" experience.$

They did some tests to confirm it.

I tried the sensation xe a few hours ago, and you can say that I wasn't really that impressed.

I definitely get better sound out of the Galaxy Nexus
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @rbiter:
The nexus puts out clean bass. And I am not going to compare cans, but I can say I finally got a premium subwoofer for the home system and the difference is even more noticeable with good speakers and a badass subwoofer. Ask another hsu research owner. How low can you go?

A class above my last phone (bionic). No more crackling and tinny sounds.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] waiaung1:
I agree that the GNex sounds great but I find my old Vibrant with the latest voodoo sound to be better. I use UE TripleFi 10 Pro and Klipsch X10.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] omersak:
To sum up: it has the best audio quality of all android phones since the voodoo sound ones
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @home:
Unfortunalty it cannot be used to it's full potential due to only haveing 16gb installed.

I listen to Flac with Poweramp & I can get all 22Gb of my music on my Razr but have to use crappy mp3 on the Nexus.

I so wanted to use Flac but cannot be arsed to keep adding & deleting my music on the nexus.

My Razr with Flac, Poweramp & Klipsch earphones is near to audiophile.

Just wish it was on my Nexus cause it's a lovely handset let down by a few silly ommisions.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] RogerPodacter:
Yeah the buttons work. Let me do another test today with google music and ill confirm.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wendellc:
get triple fi 10 for $160 on amazon. They $100 during holidays. They blow s4 ! $120 seems a bit high for s4. I suggest head-fi.org for comparisons and reviews. I'm using Panasonic hje-900 and triple fi 10 that I got reshelled for the best fit and noise isolation.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mutelight:
I use the Klipsch S4s as my daily listeners and at the gym as I am not worried about destroying them with sweat. Fantastic sound quality, particularly for the price.

You could probably save some money if you aren't worried about the inline mic/button.

Look in the quote below, I was going to post the same article.

Also, having tried numerous Beats headphones, they are a joke for their price.

I have the TripleFi 10 vis and they are great. However, I think you forgot an "away" when you were comparing them to the S4s.

Where did you get yours fitted? I love the sound quality of them but they stick out of my ears so far and never keep a seal. I am always having to re-seat them to get my bass response back.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] The Gingerbread Man:
Thanks for your opinion, I was just looking at the Klipsch S4a with microphone for android then saw you need a Klipsch control app which hasn't been updated since last Sept and loads of people saying the app isn't 4.0 compabilte and button customization can't be used only the button to take a call. If I were to spend all that money I'd like to wait till its fully working so I'll be waiting to spend my hard earned £ but these look like they will replace the stock ear bud's which I think are pretty decent concidering. Thanks again.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Highfive o/:
I use the triplefi 10 myself, sounds absolutely gorgeous!

Regarding the sticking out thing, have you tried the flip flop mod on them?

Works perfectly, not sticking out that much, and better seal for me at least!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mutelight:
Thanks! I will have to give this a try later. I just briefly tried to remove the cable and it seems they are quite well seated. Is there no clip or anything I need to worry about? I don't want to damage them trying to remove the cables.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] devadvance:
Prior to having the Galaxy Nexus, I used a Captivate with Voodoo sound for around 6 months. The Galaxy Nexus does not (yet) produce the same quality sound as the Wolfson-equipped Galaxy S with Voodoo sound.

I have a pair of JHAudio custom IEMs (JH5 Pro) and UE Triple.Fi 10 IEMs.

The GN performs well. Compared to other Android phones, it is definitely near the top of the list in terms of overall audio quality. I haven't spent enough time listening to other phones to do a true comparison, but I would say that while the frequency output on the GN is very good (hence the good bass level), clarity and separation is a little bit lacking when compared to Voodoo sound.

Also, Triple.Fi 10s have heavy bass and very crisp highs. The vocal region, aka mid range, is lacking. The JH5s are my go to headphones unless I want to listen to bass heavy music.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wendellc:
Got my reshells done by fisher hearing. It cost me $25 for my ear impressions locally and then $90 for the reshells, if upgrade the cable its another $30. If you go to the head-fi forum there is a group deal for members thru fisher hearing, $85 for reshells including custom art which normally costs $25.

ATM, trying to save up for custom quads at 1964 Ears, after that I should be done with iems for a while.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wendellc:
True, I was using vibrant with voodoo sound way back and sound was top notch. The Galaxy Nexus certainly is no slouch and I enjoy it for its fun sound it puts out.

Is there even voodoo soundvfor the Nexus? I'm rooted and running M3 on mine but I read from supercurio that he wasn't releasing voodoo sound but maybe voodoo louder since he didn't feel the nexus was capable of producing the quality he wanted due to the mediocre dac.

Anyway, I've stopped being too critical and learning to enjoy the music more. The sound the nexus puts out is above average than other phones I've had in the pass and decent enough. I hope they support the line out mod via micro USB eventually than all I got to do is connect this thing to my portable dac/amp combo.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] otis_bartleh:
Agreed, excellent sound quality. Coming from my Nexus One, I am very happy, whether using my in ear buds, playing through my car stereo, or hooked up to my home theater...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Highfive o/:
which, ts

No, its just a "straight" pull.

But be careful, one hand low on the connector on the cable, and the other at the back at the muzzle. Then don`t pull straight out with force, but work it slowly out.

First time is the hardest, really tight fit. I have changed cables a couple of times, and it gets easier each time.

(Be aware that there are people who have reported that the connector pins from the cable have broken and got stuck in the muzzle. Most likely they have used too much force, or twitched the connector to much, so its on your own risk ;) )

Good luck mate, flip mod really made the triplefi10 a better experience for me. :D

Yes, I am. GN is better than ---XE----with JH16 Pro, IE 8 and Westone 4. Put them to the test using many playlists, of course, after setting equal volume levels, disabling any EQ and sound-effects settings (flac and 320k).

This is MY opinion, just that.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] @home:
I put some Flac music on the Gnex to compare to Mp3.

I have to say it's better but I still don't think the Gnex has 'awesome' sound as the title says.

It's good with Flac, poor with mp3. All played through poweramp & Kplisch X10's.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] [hfm]:
I turn off the eq and run flat into Klipsch s4a. Sounds fantastic. I have been using PowerAmp though I would imagine it's no different from the same setting in google's music app.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] KeithRVA:
I have a pair of ibeats and they sound great with anything, but best with my old Rezound. The gnex sounds very good, I can play with the stock player's eq to get sound very close to the Rezound. I'm happy with it, could have been much worse and still acceptable for a Nexus.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] The Gingerbread Man:
Is the klipsch app working well for you? To control volumes and skipping tracks etc? I have heard its not working on galaxy nexus. I'm interested in a set if those and would be my first 'expencive' set, I want it to work as expected. Even the stock ones sound good to me, how much better are they? My mp3 are all 320kps and I like trance music / dub step and stuff, I'm hoping for a nice bassy sound :D

AAC/MPEG-4 features much better compression (and therefore audio quality relative to file size) than MPEG-3 does, and the Galaxy Nexus will quite happily play AAC/MPEG-4 files. You might try using it instead sometime.
