What he said! Bionic is a fairly unique phone in that it can DO wifi tether without any sort of app (I think it's line 147...something...something...)

OK, here it is:

Settings Storage (the one with the picture of the hammer and wrench)

settings.db

settings

line 147 (entitlement check) edit the value from "1" to "0", reboot, and it will no longer tattle to Verizon when you turn on your wifi hotspot

That's probably the ONLY thing of note I'll ever do to the phone, aside from freezing 800 unwanted apps
[Motorola Droid Bionic] casey225:
Some people have had issues getting that to work after some of the last few updates. Also reports of phone unexpectedly rebooting while running wireless tether. I do think it is worth a try though.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] AlexWekell:
From what I've heard though, FoxFi is the easiest way to do it
[Motorola Droid Bionic] Juroid:
I use Fox-fi and it works great. Much more stable than wifi tether.

I can't beleive that FOXFI is so much easy and workiing great, highly recommended.

Thanks for pointing out, it's now on my Bionic, X, D2 and D3

Home Internet went out for a bit the other day but we didn't miss a beat thanks to my bionic and Foxfi. Worked flawlessly.

Wtih VZW wanting to eliminate unlimited data plans, I wonder if they will start looking into those tethering without their plan to do so. Anyone thinking about going legit on their tethering?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] oildriller83:
The only way you'll loose your unlimited, is by upgrading. As long as you never change your contract you'll still keep it. So if you're willing to dump a bunch of $$$ for a new phone every year, you're good to go.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] saintsdx:
There was a release on msnbc.com about how Verizion is going to be changing how data works on plans so it nullifys grandfathered unlimited data plans. The data is no longer per phone, it will be a tiered plan for the entire account and data usage is no longer per device but per account instead.

We get f*cked, not that I have unlimited data anyway however..

[Motorola Droid Bionic] oildriller83:
I've read multiple articles about this, and the ones with the most details explain this summer, when upgrading to a new device, is when they switch your plan bringing you into a new contract. Nothing says anywhere you'll loose it if you refuse to upgrade. You can buy new phones out right and activate them yourself, especially easily with 4G now without changing contracts. My parents are still running their origins Alltel contracts from when verizon bought them out 3 years ago because of not upgrading.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] saintsdx:
I see so its only when upgrading and yet you have the opportunity to buy the phone outright and maintain the data plan. But who wants to pay full price for a new phone?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] cellzealot:
Actually, I think paying full price for devices and doing away with subsidies is a very healthy change, but I have been doing that for the most part for years anyway.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] saintsdx:
Don't get me wrong I would love not to be tied down to my provider however paying upwards of 600-800 for a new phone every year or two is a little spendy when thats roughly 2 weeks of pay for me.

In my dream world this will make it into the real Android...
[Android General] wrathx:
My understanding of building an OS is extremely limited, I'm just a user. :p But based on the article, it implies that this OS was run on two different devices (HTC Flyer and Acer Iconia Tab) with improvements noted... and the team that developed XobotOS isn't working on this anymore, but released their work to the public... does this mean that in theory, developers could take this and build for other platforms at this point? Would it even be worth developers looking into this?
[Android General] DarkhShadow:
Not really, because most/all apps are coded for Java, so would stop working

I am a big fan of .NET (and off course Mono), I was thinking of starting a similar project myself, but unless Google approves this project and merges it with AOSP it's kinda pointless...

If there will be a high-level translator integrated into the OS, I will surely try to port it over to my device (Acer Liquid Metal).

Hi all,

I have been trying out HoloMusic player this week which seems to be a well made and often updated music player. I am not ready to change from my current player yet (mort player is still my everyday player) but this player seems promising. There was talk this week about releasing a stable version yesterday (Friday) which I was looking forward to.

However, yesterday, the thread here on XDA disappeared and I can find no sign of an official site online.

Does anyone know what happened?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wigwag:

[HTC Desire S] dr.higgins:
I had "Antivirus Free" (creative Apps) installed for like a year.

It did what it was supposed to do, checking every download/installation etc.

But not once It warned me about anything, so in the end I just removed it. :rolleyes:

I trust myself to have at least one or two virus free nandroids at all times.

With that in mind - what's the point having a antivirus program running 24/7? :confused:
[HTC Desire S] zedlor:
I use Avast! Mobile Security and it's great. I keep it mainly for its anti-theft feature which I think is great but hopefully won't need to ever be used...but it scans everything that is installed on it and for a free app it's brilliant- highly recommended.
[HTC Desire S] totiadrenalin:
I use ESET, but not for the antivirus future, but for the anti Theft future. It's simply the best, and worth any penny for it. Actually it is caching bunch of apps containing AIR PUSH. The best thing about ESET is that it never slow down my phone.

Now I am using NQ Mobile Security & Antivirus

And tesitng avast! Mobile Security

[HTC Desire S] Nplus1:
I've tried Avast myself and generally liked the clean interface. The reason I uninstalled it is that I haven't found a way to close it when I didn't want to use it. I really don't need an antivirus that is ALWAYS running in the background.

Do you guys know of a good free antivirus that might have an "exit" button so you can run it only when you want to scan for something?
[HTC Desire S] zedlor:
Well that's generally not the point of an anti-virus software tbh :p

You can force close them I believe if you go to the running processes and close them from there and end the service, but I haven't tried it myself (mainly because I have my Avast on a rooted installation).
[HTC Desire S] JonnyJaap:
Try Avast or Lookout

1. Easy if you don't like the stock keyboard use another one like you said. Options..

2. You have 672 whatever of memory because the other 230 is dedicated to the system...... Thought you guys should figure it out by now???

3. Boat ware is a given on all phones.

4. Nfc is restricted in most carriers during times throughout fact that they are creating their own payment system called isis.

5. even though your not in a lte area, it is not draining your battery for lte.. You will get the same battery life as me in a lte area.

6. No the boot loader won't be unlocked soon. No not the 6th. After or month or morr, yes. So just enjoy the phone then feel free to modify the heck out of it when it's allowed.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mrsatan:
I got my new s and I am liking it somewhat so far. I have a few issues though. First off is Amazon dint give me a us adapter for my charger so I have had to use my pc or PS3 to charge it. Neither of my htc chargers works as I woke up this morning and the phone was almost dead when it should have been charging. The light comes on but nothing happens though I wasn't able to test it while it had booted. This means I was not able to charge the phone when I first received it. I was able to fully charge it today but only with it on. Will this hurt the battery?

The next problem I have is the phone won't start normally after being off and charging. I always have to hold the volume button and the power to get it to work.

Next is the phone seems to get rather hot when surfing the net and when playing a game it gets almost too hot to hold and the games crash.

My next issue is with the keyboard. Is there anyways to get the period on the letter screen. What moron came up with the idea to not have the period there should be fired. I like the default keyboard a lot besides that and would like to keep it.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Scratchling:
Touble tap the space bar!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Matt1408:
Usually charging with the ports on your computer or PS3 is a lot slower than just using the wall charger. The only thing I can tell you is make sure that the cable is in all the way.

Also, as a side note, the included USB cable is the worst USB cable I've ever used. That thing fits into the XPERIA so tightly that I have to use a hell lot of force to pull it out.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] kartobot:
That's way better then any USB cable on my OG Droid,it was so loose,it fell out of the port when you moved the phone.

I made a request to start carrier specific sections so we could exchange information, but it was shot down by a mod. So I figured I would start this thread as a poor substitute at least for some discussion about data plans.

Anyway when I log in to my account and look at my data options this is what I see...

And yes I use the unlimited options.
[Networking] alpha-niner64:
We're going with the carrier's definition of "unlimited" right ;)
[Networking] KayxGee1:
AT&T still offer the unlimited data for non-smartphones. That's why it says standard phones.

To use that plan you have to use a phone that isn't recognized by AT&T.
[Networking] mesasone:
Or you could just be grandfathered in on an unlimited data plan, which many people on AT&T are. That's why it says smartphone.
[Networking] KayxGee1:
No, it doesn't. Every category except standard doesn't have a price because they do not offer it. Yes some people are grandfathered in, but the only unlimited plan that is available today is for standard phones.
[Networking] sreza:
-epic facepalm- Fail guys, just Fail. "Smartphone Personal" is the grandfathered unlimited data plan on ATT. Obviously, they'll give him the option to change to a different plan than unlimited if he's looking at his plan options on the ATT website!
[Networking] TheKennard:
at&t didn't support in my country :(
[Networking] KayxGee1:
Since when was the grandfather data plan $10? And I logged in myself and checked. The option is there for me. Like I said the reason every other category has no price, smartphone especially, is because unlimited data is only for standard phones. They've had that plan for a long time.
[Networking] KayxGee1:
The first image is the features I can add on my family member's basic flip phone, which is defined as standard by AT&T. Notice there is the options for unlimited data.

The second image, however, is the features I can add to my Impulse 4G. It is a smartphone, and no where does it have an option for unlimited data.
[Networking] sreza:
Ok, let me explain the loophole to you.

1) Buy a ultra-cheap dumbphone, like a motorola razr or something...

2) Sign up for the dumbphone unlimited data plan.

3) Buy a phone from this list unlocked and off contract.http://http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1446373

4) Swap out the sim card.

5) Congratz, you now have a smartphone with unlimited data for $15/month.
[Networking] KayxGee1:
I've done this before and can confirm it works.
