Touchwiz roms are the ones that have Samsung/S pen apps and not 3rd party ones. AOSP are based on stock roms with no skin.

Blackstar is a touchwiz rom, so you can use this method.

Haven't figured that out yet.

This is the message I'm getting when I try it

I've looked around online and the only thing I can figure out is since I'm on prepaid it has something to do with it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] sashusmom:
I get this code only if I use the contact I made for this thru the address book. When I dial it directly on the keypad iit's fine and definitely doubles my upload speed.:laugh:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] cwaffles:
Wow, thanks! How does this work? Modem bug?

Made my first boot data speeds go from 500ms ping to 150ms

Download from 300kbps to 3000kbps

Upload from 30kbps to 150kbps
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Christogq:
Are you on prepaid by any chance?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] sashusmom:
Yes I am. Tmo monthly 4G, 5gb, unl. text, 100 min/mo.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Christogq:
Hmmmm. I guess the only other thing I can do is flash to the Rom that you're using and hopefully that works for me. I'll report what I find.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] sashusmom:
Don't know if it's Padawan or not. I like the rom- pretty much runs itself. ( runs similiar to flapps' ics rom) No problems like all the JB roms out. I also have the foil mod. It helped, but not a whole lot.

This mod should work on any Touch Wiz rom interface. If you don't like padawan, and the speed doesn't change for you, you can always go back. Just make a nandroid BU. I am on Padawan's 2.0. I never flashed the update. Don't think that will make a difference.

Good luck. This made a big difference for me. My upload speeds are now = to the att sim on ST-.5-1 mbps. The DL speeds blow ST out of the water at 13-15 mbps.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Rob4828:
to be honest I have no idea. I was just playing around with service mode to fix my slow data speeds and I stumbled upon this method.

There's two possibilities.

A. Data is restored because the radio is shutdown completely during the process

B. Frequency being changed momentarily.

I think its a but I need a way to replicate the radio shutdown and airplane mode isn't good enough.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Vicious Von:
Well Im here to confirm and vouch that Rob's method works flawlessly. Thanks Rob! Now I will attempt my theory in which I can receive these kinds of speeds on a aosp rom. I have before but it was sheer dumb luck.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Rob4828:
My battery life is ok. I always carry an extra battery with me if i want to stream videos because that will drain the battery pretty fast.

You can go into your settings and turn 2g on.

If you flash the asop theme for a blackstar Rom, you won't be able to do this because it replaces the tw dailer with an asop dailer.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Rob4828:
If you are in an area where mobile aren't that good, then your speeds will reflect that. On a mobile phone i get around 12mb at home. On the note without the method i get 2mb. Once i use the method i get 12mb on the note which is my normal speeds.

Worked on Only One Rom

Used the op's method with i717 with Only One rom and Blaze modem. I went from about 2m to close to 10-15 with his trick.

I was so tired of screwing around with modems and tin foil, I broke down and bought a t879.

This works so good that I am selling my T879 and keeping the i717 (already hacked for wifi hotspot)

Big THANK YOU for the info!!!!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Rob4828:
You can hotspot without being detected bu t-mobile?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] sashusmom:
I tethered for 2 days during Sandy without detection. I had 2 devices using the data connection- 2 tablets. Worked great and streamed netflix fine.

I have the ATT i717, custom rom, and built in hotspot works perfectly. I think because it's not a t-mo phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] curgervending:
Amazing. I have seen this post many times and bypassed it. Finally took a crack at it. It works consistently!!

I have an SGH-i717 with the T-mobile T879 stock rom (UVLG3) and the ICS Blaze radio.

I have used mainly CM9 and CM10 Roms and had to drive around a bit every time I had a reboot in order to re-establish the fast internet speed.

With my current combination, no driving around is necessary. Just follow the instructions and you're done.

Does anyone know if it's possible to put these instructions into a script to be able automatically run at every start-up? That would be cool.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] curgervending:
I found a work around to cure slow T-Mobile internet speed on CM10!!

I'm running CM10 nightlies (December 10th). Here's are my steps:

1 - Go into your System settings

2 - Select "More..." (in the WIRELESS & NETWORKS section)

3 - Select Mobile networks

4 - Uncheck "Data enabled"

5 - Select Network operators. The search may take a little while - be patient.

6 - At least 2 available networks should appear below the "Choose automatically" section (for me, T-Mobile and AT&T appeared).

7 - Select a network other than T-Mobile (for me I chose AT&T since it was the only other network available). It should

say "Registering on (the network you chose)..." When it finishes you should notice in the status bar that you no longer have

network signal bars or a data icon.

8 - Now select T-Mobile. It should say "Registering on T-Mobile..." When it finishes you should notice in the status bar that you now

have network signal bars and a data icon.

You should now have fast internet. Someone please try this on other non-touchwiz roms (CM9, AOSP, MIUI). This consistently get me speeds of about 15mbps down and 3mbps up where I live (New York).

*#2263 does not work for my phone. I am using AOSPxXx-ICS-20130201 rom
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] sashusmom:
Me too. *#2263# does not run unless you hit call, Am on Jedi-SOA 4.2.2. Says code has connection problem or invalid mmi code.

Must not have touch wiz. But my speeds are 5-10 mbps DL, .5-1 UL. So probably no need.

Tried the alternate way, it slowed me down. However, I did learn when I checked 2g, it flipped to 2g. Since I have wifi at home, I'll leave it on edge and see how much more battery life I get. It also made my signal much stronger. went from -95/91 to -85 and 4 strong bars. On edge I am getting .13 mbps DL. and same on UL. I really only need it for GV texts and voicemail. I'll see how it goes. Nice to know I can redline when needed.

In the past, my hubby would have no service with ATT and I would have good service on t-mo edge. Sometimes it's a nice trade off. I know, opposite of the purpose of this thread!!!!! But all the other roms never allowed you to run on 2g. So this is a nice battery saver when you have no need for speed.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] savagepagan:

Got it to work on my Galaxy Note. Found this in the apk, so figured you just need to hide your superuser app. Renamed "superuser.apk" in my /system/app folder, then I could start the game fine. Once done playing, I renamed superuser.apk.bak to superuser.apk and all is well.

String[] packagename = new String[] {
decode(activity, "55E3819E6925E350523567266666667627776777") , //eu.chainfire.supersu

So you renamed the superuser.apk file only or you have to insert/modify the code in the apk file?
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] cooldoud:
Nope, no tinkering with the CR apk needed, just rename the superuser.apk in /system/app (well I suppose YMMV, but it worked for me). Got a script you can run with Script Manager to hide/unhide Superuser.apk in the following thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1932078

Hi guys,

I've tried the WhatsApp PLUS mod but I was unhappy with the fact that it's Holo theme is not according to the same design we see in core ICS apps -- I love the simplicity of the looks. So I decided to mod WhatsApp and make it really Holo-fied. It's not a theme. It's a real Holo app.

Features:

Holo Design

Hardware Accelerated (No more stuttery scroll!)

Cons/Bugs:

No "Search" function for Conversations and within Conversation

Broadcast Page is still not Holo-fied

Emoji popup arrow is on the wrong place

You tell me!

I don't have time to post screenshots right now, hopefully kind souls can help me take a before and after screenshot of the mod. ;)

Instructions:

1. Backup your WhatsApp messages

2. Uninstall your WhatsApp on the device

3. Install my awesome Holo WhatsApp from the link below

4. If you would like to support me, download Nine and Upgrade to Pro!

5. ENJOY!

If you're not interested in Holo design, you won't find anything beneficial with this mod. ;)
[Android Apps and Games] Jeshter2000:
Could you make its main icon blue too??
[Android Apps and Games] AllSeeyinEye:
I suspect you're replying to my post.

I am interested in a Holo design. But Holo is more than just a menubar. Holo has (light or dark) square pop ups, square menu's and so on. Furthermore there is no green nor some sea water blueish color in Holo.

For real Holo, have a look at the CM9 message apk (Holo light) or just Google some true Holo themed apps.

[Android Apps and Games] davidrome:
great work! it should show contact photo, blue (holo) marks and a little more polish holo interface
[Android Apps and Games] ruqqq:
I'm not sure why you're putting up an argument, sir. Maybe I didn't phrase my reply proper. Apologies for that. What I just meant was, if you don't like the mod, feel free to skip it and go back to using whatsapp plus. No problem with that. ;)

Anyway, this is isn't a complete holo mod and won't be due to complications. The idea is just to turn the app into a native holo app instead of a themed Holo app ala WhatsApp plus holo. Native holo buttons, dialogs, font etc.

And of course, I'll update it further from time to time whenever possible. This isn't the final version. Should have put it in the first post.... Heh
[Android Apps and Games] Pfeffernuss:
The OP states: "So I decided to mod WhatsApp and make it really Holo-fied" so the misunderstandings are completely valid imho.

Leaving this thread because of this/your way of answering constructive questions. Good luck with the app.

Thanks for another amazing app, I love your work. Could I give some feedback for future updates?

1. Switch the "send" button next to the message area for the arrow-like button wich is used in the cm9 texting and e-mail app.

2. Maybe you could do something with the contacts/open chats to make those look holo-ish aswell (like holo blue color on select instead of orange)

3. Change the menu icons (new, new group, status, contacts, settings, more, etc.)

Just some suggestions. Maybe you had already thought of them, who knows.

I wish you the best of luck on the future development of this app, I will be watching ;)

[Android Apps and Games] dee8905:
the changes are very little, but neat and clean, you will see a lot of difference when you came from blueish, or whatever colors you put on W+. Not that I dislike W+, I've been using it since god knows when, but I realize I missed how the color of every bar in main chat screen or those headers were shaded, not blocked in one color like we did on W+. And the changes he put on headers, setting & whatsapp contact screen were clean, you almost cannot see the difference, but somehow it look neat.

But my most love goes to hardware acceleration. I do not know what in hell does the Whatsapp devs been thinking about when after all this time, they still not care to put hardware acceleration on their app. It disgust me how heavier app like LINE can scroll more fluidly than Whatsapp that people called 'lightweight chat app'. I mean, hundreds of chats with pictures and stickers on LINE could scroll better than a couple text chat on Whatsapp group. Come on.

Big kudos to you for the HW acc. :good:
