[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] pyrostic:
I began thinking this yesterday and I don't know if it's because I just can't knock sense into people's skulls, or if they are so ignorant to take my advice.

I HATE iPhone buyers/fanboys(some people have to use them for work.)

I have this person who asked me if I saw the gathering of mindless idiots yesterday (I'm paraphrasing) I said yes but then he (a current iPhone user) told me he was buying it because it's "sexy" I proceeded to tell him the spec bump from the 4s was minimal and that it has nothing on the top current Android phone. He then proceeded to tell me he doesn't care and he's still going to buy it anyway. Please help me understand this? Now I don't know if it is that I don't get where he's coming from or if he's just a darn idiot.

I understand and am in complete agreance that if you use Macs at home apple is a good way to go for you. BUT he doesn't... He is a sheep.

Now on to my point... I hate apple... Not only hate, but I'd love to see Apple fail miserably (not the people employed, but the company and the ones that call the shots) just one time I want to see a tech blogger ask questions like, "How confident and how do you feel about your product entering the market while your competition is beating your current specs?" or one of them yell out "WOW YOU MINIMALLY INCREASED 4 SPECS AND AN OS UPDATE FU**ING BRILLIANT!!!" My very own cousin and brother in law are trapped with the sheep.

My brother in law called me and asked me what I thought... I ended up hanging up on him in utter frustration because he failed to listen... It's like he can't wait to throw money at them...

That's not all though, the technology bogs even call it brilliant... And they won't shut the fu## up about it... Dude its got a sapphire lense (watch faces are made out of this...) Dude its optics are precision aligned (how the fu$$ else do you expect to take pictures if your optics aren't aligned with precision?) and everyone eats it up.

Here lately I feel really smart... But I also can't stand to talk to idiots who are the iPhone sheep.

I could go into Apples patent hungry team and using them as weapons but we all know that.

Why am I this way? What can I do to ensure I can coexist with these dumb heads? Any advice before I go insane? Am I in the wrong? Should I be on something? I'm literally at my last nerve and am about to deck someone the next time the word iPhone comes out their da*n mouth.

Thanks in advance,

-sick of it :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] galchristian:
LOL! Sounds like someone has Apple issues. JK.

I personally hate iPhone as well and their users love it and I can never understand. Grr

I have 2 MAC Pro's in the house and 2 HP Beat's laptops I like their MAC's (other than that forget it) Honestly I don't see why anyone would buy the i5 when they have an i4 already.

Looks the same doesn't know anything more than the i4. The only reason I see people getting it for a reason is if they want to rock on Verizon's awesome 4G LTE since other carrier's 4g still su*k

Honeslty the i4/5 (same thing) has nothing on the GS3. Our phones beat the crap out of them any day or night oh don't make me forget anytime! :laugh:

(oh and what you said that iphone users don't listen geeezz your so right have the same problem & it makes me mad as hell since I've been dealing with cell phones ever since I was 12yrs old lol)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] blackhemi4x4:
Ive owned iPhones. They are good phones, but not what the fanboys make out of them. Id never own one again, not my cup of tea.

Funny vid out there of fanboys given iPhone 4S's and were told the were iPhone 5's. They bought the story. idiots they are!

Ill stick to my androids :)

yes this is one of them lol: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rdIWKytq_q4&feature=youtube_gdata_player
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ooofest:
"Sexy"?

The phone has been elongated slightly in one dimension and is thinner, with slightly bevelled edges that look mechanical more than fluid to me. Contrast this with the fluid look and feel of a S3, for example. The iPhone 5 still just a (patented) rounded rectangle. "Sexy"?

iOS6 is certainly an improvement, but it's otherwise still (mostly) just a bunch of icons in a matrix format. Yeah, I can see how that would get someone moist.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ddurandSGS3:
i figured itout the other day talking to some firends when they asked me about my phone.

i showed them roms i had, different icons, widgets, etc.

they had NO interest in any of that. they use their phones for games, making calls, texting and going on facebook. they dont want or need any other features. They loved it. thought it was cool, but no interest

thats the AVERAGE consumer. the people here arent average consumers.

and thats where the line is drawn. if you werent technlogically sound, didnt find the need to open a laptop wouldnt you want to have your ipod and phone together? Its maketed to the mass public. and it meets their needs. They dont need to have a quad core processor. Their customer base wont know or care what that is.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] buhohitr:
Here is what it is. If you take an old android phone and ask apple to put their logo on as "iphone6" on it then sell it. It's going to sell like cup cakes. The moral of the story is. Iphone fan boys are PUPPETS= NO BRAINERS=LOW IQ.=YOUNG TEENAGERS=OLD FARTs. End of discussion.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] b4silver:
Whoaho. Buddy I am a young teenager and I feel your pain. But not all teenagers r like an isheep. Now 99% of teenage girls. Yes. Yes they r. They don't care about specs and all. They know apple is the cool thing and so they fork over their parents money to get one. Now I must admit teenagers r much more prown to falling into the isheepiness. I was once one. I thought my ipod was the thing. It was perfect! But then I found out about jail breaking and all that put a horrid android skin on it and loved android. Now I was like 12 and ever since thirteen always been android. Samsung galaxy s3 and nexus 7.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] skater95:
IPhone are girl phones. I usually only see girls with them. But they're great for older people that want a smart phone, or someone that wants something simple.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ooofest:
Er, I don't like to classify most things with the schoolyard "boy" and "girl" label from a cultural perspective, and easily see as many males as females with iPhones.

I do agree that for people not in touch or interested in technology, thetedious, foolproof (i.e., dumb) iOS interface with a single button has a degree of attraction.

I just upgraded my Xoom 4G to Code Named Android (Jellybean) and have lost the ability to access the external SD card. If this has been discussed, I apologize, but a search revealed so many non related posts, I gave up. is this a known issue with jellybean? Is there a fix?

Thanks in advance.:)

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kurtyyyyyy:
Im being a bit fussy now, but thought why not ask. Ive got my homescreen how i want it now, but the icons havent changed when im on the lockscreen. How would i go about doing this..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Brian Gove:
If you mean to keep the same apps that have shortcuts on your lockscreen but change their icons, I don't believe there is a way unless you find the actual icon pictures and replace them with new ones manually.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] voodoomanx:
Find the image files for the lock screen and copy the ones from your desktop. That is I am assuming you mean the same apps have different icons from the desktop to the lock screen.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] slickromeo:
according to this article:

http://www.tmonews.com/2012/08/t-mo...d-nationwide-4g-data-plan-with-press-release/

T-Mobile will finally allow you to have an unlimited data plan (with no throttling, and no data caps) in other words, this is real unlimited not pseudo-unlimited.

however if you read the article i posted above, it says tethering hotspot not allowed.

So here is the question.

how many of you on the GSM version Samsung Galaxy Nexus have successfully used the stock tethering feature of the galaxy nexus WHILE BEING ON t-mobile's new unlimited 4G data plan where tethering is not allowed?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jhenderson81:
I have a HTC sensation and can use stock hotspots with a custom apn unlock for tmo

Grogg is the developer
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] slickromeo:
are you on t-mobile's new unlimited 4G plan I mentioned in that article I posted?

I dont know what a "custom apn unlock for tmo" is.

right now, this is how i tether,i go to the tethering menu in system settings, and i checkmark "portable w-fi hotspot"

and that's it , i'm done.

would upgrading to t-mobile's new fancy unlimited no data caps no throttling 4G internet cause me to have to jump through hoops just to tether?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] slickromeo:
Has ANYONE taken advantage of t-mobile's new unlimited 4G data plans? the ones with no throttling and no data caps? i assume this would be easy enough for anyone to test their tethering feature if they've signed up for the new data plan. if you have the new data plan please let me know.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cmstlist:
The GNex won't ask T-Mobile for permission to tether, and the traffic will look like mobile traffic. So the only way they can stop you is if they are sniffing out red flags like browser user agent strings. If they do that you might be able to punch through if you have access to a VPN.

You could always try it for a month and see. If you aren't happy, change back to another plan.

Or you could decide not to go breaking T-Mobile's T&C. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] luckylui:
I've done it w my unlocked Gnex with success. Was linked up to 4 devices yesterday :) took up 2.3 GBs once done.

#Galaxy Nexus HSPA+
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] slickromeo:
I've tethered on my Gnex with success also. but my dilemma is that i'm on a grandfathered $20 per month unlimited 4G internet plan as an add-on to my minutes plan, and it works great for tethering.

luckylui, you are on the new $30 unlimited data plan right?

i would like it if someone would not only confirm that they could tether successfully, but if they are also using t-mobile's new no-tethering allowed 4G internet to tether.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
There's nothing T-Mobile can do to stop tethering on the unlimited plan that they can't already do on any of their other plans. You're using a Nexus, so they don't have custom firmware to block. The only thing they can do is block certain UAstrings of desktop browsers (which they're shying away from since Chrome for Android came out), or cancel your plan for abuse.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jhenderson81:
I.am.on tmobiles.new.unlimited value plan. I had it.working for.my sensation for 3 days. Since that time thry have blocked.me from tethering. The funny.thing is that my girlfrinds newly unlocked.cm10 rom nexus wont tether from the stqrt. Sorry so sloppy.....in a hurry
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] luckylui:
I'm on the $30 UNLTD. I've used it for days without being blocked. I just downloaded a whole factory image off Google from my desktop tethering via USB. DL at 7mbps. No issues with my side at all.

#Galaxy Nexus HSPA+
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] r_nt:
I have the new no-throttling plan and I'm currently tethering via Wi-Fi hotspot. This is actually the first time I've ever used it (tried before and it nothing happened; guess I wasn't patient enough). So far, I've done a few speed tests and some light browsing without issue. My data is also $20/month, btw.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] juan_carlos__007:
I have the nexus s, on the past I had the gradgathered not truly unlimited 5gb plan that one worked good for tethering the only problem that it had 5gb restriction then it slowed down no were it was really unpleasant to see youtube videos. Now I have the new unlimited plan for tethering is weird when I try to use it on my computer it tells me local access apps like messenger don't connect until I use firefox then they're able to connect and it works fine on firefox. On the other hand when I try to connect it on internet explorer this weird t-mobile's page comes up not letting me connect to the internet offering the hotspot add on for $15/month. Also when I tether to my ps3 is not working anymore the same t-mobile page comes up, and of course the fu**ing rooted tether app does not work with ps3 wifi so right now I'm on the look up of an app that lets my rooted nexus s tether to my ps3 or a way to tether normally without that t-mobile page coming up. Oooh and a tip you can get a monthly discount of about $10 fldollars if you been with t-mobile for a long time just ask for it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
T-Mobile is detecting the UAstring of the browser, seeing one that isn't available via the Android handset itself, and blocking. That's why when you browse on IE (or the PS3 browser) it knows that you're not on your phone.

You can try using a UAstring switcher extension/addon for Chrome/Firefox, its worked for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] juan_carlos__007:
It's weird now even with the wi-fi tether app the tethering is not working now they'r catching my speed and blovking my tethering? What's the point on rooting and installing wifi tether if it's not gonna work either?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Because like I said, they detect tethering based on UAstring, which is how your browser tells pages what device it is. So it doesn't matter what program, ROM, or anything you use because when you eventually get to the site you'll identify as a desktop and they'll block it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jhenderson81:
I had a HTC Sensation and now have a S3, both of which have been rooted and AOSP ROMs flashed. That has been working fine for me. Don't use Chrome. My girls Nexus S with any combo of ROMs doesn't tether anymore.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sivsiv:
I just got onto Tmobile from verizon for the unlimited data. If this is the case (the UAstring is what's preventing tethering) then using a VPN connection should fix that right?

Set up the VPN on your phone, connect to it, then set up your tethering. Then Tmobile should have no idea what you're doing, or where the data is being used, other than the fact that all the data is being pushed through a VPN server.

I haven't tried tethering yet just because i wanna know the full extent to which tmobile is able to monitor tethering techniques.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cmstlist:
Standard practice is that when a phone is connected to VPN and tethering, the tether bypasses the VPN.

So really the VPN should be initiated from the device that is connected to the phone, not from the phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] felito6985:
To answer the OP's original question. I just switched over to T-Mobiles new unlimited everything plan and can confirm that tethering still works and is unaffected.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Znomon:
Don't some mobile providers sniff for pings to Windows update server? I remember reading that if you didn't have a tethering plan and they saw pings to the widows update server they would tell you to stop. Otherwise they would add a tethering plan to your account.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] juan_carlos__007:
Well b4 I used the new unlimited plan it worked fine until they blocked me. Then you recommended to ad the ua switcher on firefox now I'm tethering without any problem hopefully they don't catch me again.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] brooklynchildxbc:
if using it to tether a tablet as long as i use the stock browser and don't change the UAstring i shouldn't be blocked. i'm looking to get the nexus 4 and a nexus 7 maybe the 10. so using that combo should keep me from being blocked
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] justintime4tea:
Confirmation

I can confirm Tmobile 4G Unlimited works while using User Agent switching OR if the device connected to the phones internet is also a mobile device. Tested on a Galaxy Note 2 and an LG G2-X using different combinations of FoxFi , it's built in proxy add-on, and another Proxy app called SandroProxy. Set my friends phone up with the same setup now we are both enjoying completely unlimited 4G internet speed and it feels goooood :):good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] adamhlj:
when you do the UA string switch, what exactly do you do? I found this webpage: http://www.howtogeek.com/113439/how...user-agent-without-installing-any-extensions/ that shows how to switch the browser user agent. Is that all you do? You can switch to a 4.0.4 gnexus UA or a 2.3 Nexus S UA.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sivsiv:
Surely it can't be just based on the UAstring because I usually have the UAstring set to desktop mode on chrome and Firefox on my phone, so that should set of some alarms for them if it was just the UAstring.

Still if you tether to a non mobile device, I'd be careful. Just cause it works for now doesn't mean you won't get caught later.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] juan_carlos__007:
While using the User Agent switcher everything works fine except flash videos such as youtube. Does anybody know how to fix this issue?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Erik.Leach:
N7 through Tmo tether?

So I currently have a Nexus 7 and a Gnex through Verizon. I tether my N7 to my GNex regularly with PdaNet+ and it works fine. My contract is up in July and I was thinking of getting another Gnex through T Moble. Would I be OK tethering my N7 with a Gnex on this new Unlimited plan?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] secretefate:
Can someone help me with this?

I'm a noobie and i'm new to rooting. I have rooted my nexus 4 last night and i'm on tmobile's unlimited nationwide data.

Can someone teach me how to wifi tether? I'm getting really confused reading the original post and the thread. I've installed the wifi treve mod app and also vpn1click. I'm not sure how to change my settings in the tether app, can someone help me with this? thanks, much appreciated.
[HTC One X] jed27.galvez:
Hi! I am a first time Android user. After reading threads here in XDA for months, I have come to realize that the more I learn, the more I know that I have got more that I can't understand. My HOX has a software number of 1.15.401.1 and I have learned that this software build is a demo/pre-release build which explains why I can't receive OTA updates despite checking for it everyday. I've been in touch with HTC about this but they can't answer me with a straight answer, to the point that they're actually advising me to wait for the update on the first quarter of 2013! Anyway, I am fed up with HTC and decided to take matters on my own(with your help, of course). Anyway, to put it simply, I am asking you on how to install a stock ROM for my phone. How do I know the correct RUU for my phone that I should download(I am in the Philippines)? What are the tools I need to get/download? What are the words I need to type in cmd.exe? Etc. Anyway, some info I know about my phone are these: my phone is S-Off, I have a CID of 11111111, it is unrooted, I never touched on that 'unlock bootloader' thingy on HTDev. Also, I am providing some screenshots from my phone if it can help my my issue. I hope you can help me guys. And if you're going to teach me, feel free treat me like a 5th grader. Thanks!

Just root your phone, edit system files and unroot it back like a stock HTC One X from factory with all features etc.

There outside is a lot of guides and tutorials ;)
[HTC One X] ckpv5:
@ jed27.galvez

Since your device is s-off, You don't need to use any command except that your device need to be in fastboot mode.

Press power + volume down to go to bootloader/hboot then press power once, you'll be fastboot mode. connect your device to pc and run the RUU.

Download the RUU here : http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=30222514&postcount=1677
[HTC One X] EddyOS:
Download and run the 2.17.401.2 RUU - that is the latest for your phone (1.15.401.1 - 2.17.401.2)

NEVER use HTCDev for anything ever - you don't need to
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] -greenboy-:
The concept is if you are not in the country, can or should able to use the wifi calling to avoid roaming charges.

Last night I was with the billing agent and tried to confirm that and was told that you will still be charged roaming charges even if you are on wifi calling. she said wifi calling is just to give you better coverage if you are on a low signal area.

Also when I am on airplane more and have the phone connected to wifi, still wifi calling not enable. how to fix that?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] CEB1970:
I use wifi calling internationally all the time. There is no additional roaming charge. That would be ridiculous.

They count as regular plan minutes just like any other call.

(Edit: I just verified this on my bill. The last time I had checked a year or so ago they had not even been counting as plan minuted.)

As far as the plane is concerned, it could either be that the port used for wifi calls is blocked or it could be that the latency just sucks too bad for wireless calling to work even if the overall bandwidth is decent.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] -greenboy-:
do you have airplane mode off?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] -greenboy-:
i see wifi calling icon when my airplane mode is off and connected to wifi. it means that my wifi calling is enable.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] dcmtnbkr:
if that is a question then the answer is yes as long as the icon isnt red.
