I went with the ATT variant mostly because I wanted it in Cyan but I feel that this decision has lost me the opportunity to use Internet Sharing on Telus Mobility. Can anyone confim if this feature can be unlocked to use with another carrier? Or will I forever be screwed?

Calling ATT will be pointless since I'm not a US resident or ATT customer. And I'm certain Telus doesn't provide support for non-Telus handsets.
[Nokia Lumia 900] hvbelton:
Internet Sharing is ONLY available from ATT with the 5GB LTE data plan. Anything else and your are S.O.L.
[Nokia Lumia 900] cao0215:
yes it is , i m contact with nokia, and they said others all cant use this feature and dont know when is able to use.
[Nokia Lumia 900] hvbelton:
:confused::confused::confused:
[Nokia Lumia 900] pistol44:
Well I got around this on my old HD7 by doing the forced update method on Mango. It ended up debranding my HD7 hence allowing Internet Sharing to be used on my Canadian carrier.

This might be possible on the Lumia when Tango releases.
[Nokia Lumia 900] disolitude:
I picked up the phone and internet sharing doesn't work with Telus (or Rogers) for me. It turns on and device connects and gives me an IP, however the connection on my laptop stays 'limited' and internet doesn't work. Exact same result with Telus sim card as with a Rogers one. (non LTE)

I spoke with Rogers today about is and apparently the phone can only do internet sharing if you have an LTE data plan. Not sure if this will be fixed, but it really should be as Rogers requirements for internet sharing state that the plan needs to be 500MB+. So hopefully there is an update in the works.
[Nokia Lumia 900] trueblog:
Is this happening after the update ??? or before ? I am on Rogers and i my house is on the border of LTE area i guess ..

So when i go to one room i get 3G and Tethering wont work

Then when i come another room i get LTE with one bar and then tethering works !!!

Now after switching rooms i always check my IE9 Mobile works first and then i turn on sharing ...

And i also rarely see 4G .. its either 3G or LTE ..
[Nokia Lumia 900] Seed 2.0:
I don't understand why they don't just let people tether on their plan. I have the Unlimited plan for $30, it gets throttled at 5GB, so let me tether and get to that 5GB faster, maybe I need it enough I will change to 5GB plan and pay the extra $10 per GB. If on a 3GB plan and tethering you could get past the 3GB and start paying extra $10 per GB. At$t must no have confidence in there network holding up to tethering.
[Nokia Lumia 900] disolitude:
mine hasn't been updated yet. rogers hasn't rolled it out... if your firmware is 8107 still you didn't receive the update yet.

were not sure if the update will fix this issue or if its for something else. however I am pretty sure this will get fixed. lte in Canada is limited to like 5 cities. they cant expect people to only use internet sharing when in those areas...
[Nokia Lumia 900] shiftf7:
Exactly my sentiments. It just doesn't make any sense to me. Why do I have to be on the largest data plan to tether. The 3GB plan is still capped, what does it matter if I use all 3GB on my phone or on my computer connected to my phone. Blah.
[Nokia Lumia 900] livnlif:
Yeah, I will not pay the $50 At&t charges for having a tethering plan. I will wait for someone to open this up to use it on any data plan. They charge you anyways if you go over, so what is the big deal?
[Nokia Lumia 900] kikkomanchow:
Rogers Tethering

I'm on Canada's Rogers network with the lumia 900. Tried tethering yesterday, didn't seem to require me to do anything extra - worked great, I am on a real basic data plan, 500mb/mth.
[Nokia Lumia 900] disolitude:
2 questions...

1. Are you on an LTE plan? And if not, do you know if you were given an LTE enabled sim card? I think you are most likelt LTE enabled as Rogers offers a 500 MB LTe plan

2. Is your Lumia 900's firmware 8107 or 8112?
[Nokia Lumia 900] kikkomanchow:
1. Yes I dont know if im on the LTE plan, because i just joined a "data plan". I checked my phone's bandwidth with an app and it showed around 25mbps in around the markham area, and around 10 in vaughan. I was given an LTE enabled sim card, that sales guy had to look all over for one. yes i have the 500mb plan.

2. 8107. Rogers have not released the 8112 yet, they say around the 20th we would get (which is today), but some people also indicated that engineers says 23rd.
[Nokia Lumia 900] cruiser78:
I have a Rogers Lumia 900 unlocked and on Bell right now and just checked in Zune and there is still no update yet so I would expect it next week for sure. My firmware is still 8107 too.
[Nokia Lumia 900] kamranwpi:
I have it on AT&T Unlimited $30 plan, don't let me do internet sharing either... Any way around it yet?
[Nokia Lumia 900] NickS_:
I hope so soon, though with my corporate discount it only ends up being $39.50/mo for 5GB & Tethering vs $30/mo for 3GB no tethering (they don't discount the 3GB plan for whatever reason)
[Nokia Lumia 900] simpl3lang:
Sorry to bump this thread. As anyone manage to find a work around yet? Im on my philippines trip and im using my galaxy note to browse this forum right now. My note is Using the lumia 900 internet connection. This is the second time i managed to use it. I have also encountered the at&t restriction. When i go back to vegas i will try it out. If i do manage to enable it when i get back, will at&t detect it and automatically put the $50 extra in my account? Before i got the nokia lumia 900, i always use tethering with my android phones without getting hit with an extra charge

edit: while i was in the philippines i was able to tether multiple times using a non-at&t simcard. but now that i am back in the USA, theres just no way in getting internet sharing turned on for free.
[Nokia Lumia 900] richmun:
Any luck finding software to teather the Nokia 900 yet?

Hey all, this is one of my first post here, but I have been a user since the original Moto Droid. Before asking any questions I wanted to thank EVERYONE here who has helped me & the Mods for keeping this place so neat and clean!

Does anyone know of a way to get the pure android experience on this phone? (i.e. sms, dialer, icons, lock screen, etc) Like what comes on the new Galaxy Nexus!?

Please forgive me if this has been addressed already, I couldn't find anything with any solutions or definite answers.

And came up with a very fast, battery saving, pure(ish) android experience.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] elglobie:
I amusing Battery XL at the moment, can't see that much energy savings..
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] jeromepearce:
Not using it :p

Seriously, though, there is a thread in the General forum that goes through many of the ways to improve battery life. I personally have found that battery savers just do not do what I want, and sometimes they use more battery when installed. I like to set it all manually. It is a lot of work to set up, but the battery savings can be great.

A lot of it requires root access, but I think this is a must in any case, even if only to be able to set up a firewall.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] tytung2020:
It's useless,

there're steps for saving batteries.

1. Reduce brightness to less than 30% during indoor, this should be enough for most people;

2. Turn off mobile data and use only wifi whenever you in wifi-spot

3. Don't always use live-wallpaper
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] Souai:
battery saver apps are designed to kill apps/processes to reduce battery usage. however, this ends up being a waste of time as these apps and processes will often reopen themselves after. so you end up in a boot-kill loop for every app, which ends up using more CPU cycles which ends up killing the battery faster.

you're better off leaving these apps in the background since they dont use CPU cycles when theyre inactive.

if you want to save battery, turn off wifi and bluetooth when youre not using them. otherwise your device will constantly waste battery by trying to ping local wifi hotspots and bluetooth devices.

turn the screen brightness down and use dark backgrounds. on amoled displays, black means LED off which means no power consumption. white means LED on which means full power consumption (a white screen on an amoled display consumes more than twice the amount of power an LCD display would use).

dont use live wallpapers.

turn off mobile data when youre not using it. or if this is inconvenient for you, disable any widgets that constantly use your data (ie. weather widgets) or set their update interval to every 3 hours or so (lets face it... who needs to know how much the temp changes every minute...).
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] 9099:
is it possible to use simple mobile on the incredible 2? i know it has a sim card but i am not sure. If i can what steps do i need to take in order to do so. Thanks
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] zax10:
You would need to either contact Verizon's global team and have them provide you with the unlock code or you could purchase an unlock code from eBay.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] el6006:
Once you unlock the SIM it should work. I unlocked mine and have been able to use the straight talk Nokia SIM that I had. It works except I don't get 3G connection. EDGE only. Otherwise it works fine. Will come in handy whenever I travel to Mexico next month.

Hi, I'd like to thank everyone for their patience. I'm coming from iOS and am trying to learn here. If I flash the Lumia 800 with a Country Variant firmware to "debrand" the phone, what happens when future updates arrive? Will Zune try and install the original branded firmware from the carrier? Or does it pull the unbranded version for any future updates?

Well are you sure its your WiFi? WiFi really doesn't use that much power, it might just be the Rom, I suggest you flash the new kernel buy ...Awesome...

It probably is the kernel then. The rom is in beta build so just flash the new kernel and see if it works

Hi XDA Members and staff!

Today i have bought a brand new Samsung 32GB Class 10 + High speed MicroSD Card. I just placed a new rom on the SD CARD and flashed it on to my HTC HD2 as i got to the Home screen i didn't see the Preparing SD card notification so i connected my phone to my computer and guess what it didn't show up... Then i took my old LG phone and it worked. I went to format it and then again guess what; it was 31.6MB Free of 31.6MB! Where did my memory go? OK i right clicked F: selected "format" tried making it FAT32 but is not there... So i done it on FAT; still no luck... I then tried SDFormatter no luck; it wasn't even capable of Fully erasing it because it wasn't compatible with the LG phone.... OMFN! I am so unlucky! God hates me!

Can Somebody help me out?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MBM7881:
hello everyone...i'm coming from an HTC Evo 3D and just recently got the Epic 4G Touch. My little dilemma is that the phone won't read some things on my SD Card. for example it wont read backups i have saved for some certain*apps and it wont read my docs2go files. they show up when i plug my phone to my computer but not on the phone when its disconnected. i've formatted the SD Card mounted and unmounted and still nothing. My documents show up in the Polaris app though just not in my docs2go. Any ideas?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] olliefares:
I'm also new to this whole internal/external sd card thing as well. What I see is that certain apps wont automatically read files located higher than /sdcard, and the external sd card is found at /mnt/mmc or /sdcard-ext for the newer phones. Do you have the same issue when you move those files to the internal storage?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MBM7881:
I haven't tried moving files around. How would I do that?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tkemack:
Grab astro file manager from the market. Find the files and section "multi" then hit move. Find the new directory you want then in and select paste
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Alkah0liK:
For Real? If so, you either use "my files" app or grab es file explorer and navigate to, and then long press on the file and choose move> move to desired location.

Otherwise, happy fools day...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MBM7881:
Yup I was being for real. I never had to do that before. Every time I wanted move files around I just plugged my phone to my comp. I'm one of those ppl that really doesn't root or try different ROMs on my phone not because I don't want to but I'm terrified of messing it up lol

I avoid tw roms, so I never tried caulks, atleast not for long if I did.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] q711179:
Same exact problem for me on Calkulin's E4GT 2 v1.3a [ ICS l FC24 l Tweaked l Battery Saver Scrip and I ended up using Odin back to GB and then Calkulins 2.8.1 with no further problems with reboots. Will wait until official release before going back to IC.

Tried several things to correct the problem but with no success. The need for a stable phone won out over the bells and whistles of Ice Cream.

I don't think it has been a common problem but have seen a few reports of it. In any case, my phone has not had a single reboot since reverting back.

Had this problem on Calk's E4GT 2 1.2, as well as AOSP when it was on FC18. I attributed it to FC18 at first, then I thought it might be Tegrak.

Now on FC24 and again everything fine.

You will probably get it next Saturday now, after release date. (bank holiday weekend)

Gum mobile shouldn't have sent out any, so Saturday delivery is actually after release date.

Gum are very good, they seem to ship before the other major players as was the case when I got my SGS2 they had it and shipped before the likes of Expansys, Clove and sorts.
[HTC One X] Bruc3h:
Just called GumMobile up and they informed me that the HOX in white is unable to ship until tomorrow - with the Good Friday and bank holiday Monday I wouldn't receive it until Tuesday.

The person I spoke to happily changed mine to the grey version (I really liked the white one, but the anticipation is killing me) and he told me I'll get it tomorrow :D
