I am running JB stock rooted and had problems getting it to work. I tried all suggestions regarding the WiFi app settings without success. I read about using SuperSU instead of Superuser and after installing SuperSU and removing Superuser, it now works.

If you can't get it to run and you are using Superuser, try switching to SuperSU.

Illegal is a strong word. Is it illegal to charge for 4g/lte and not provide it? Ive been paying for it since evo released over 2 years ago and no 4g.

Super SU did it for me too. Awesome.

You still have unlimited and it's still cheaper than the competition. Really don't get you people that ***** about premium data thinking you're getting shafted. If $10 breaks your balls, then i'd hate to see what would happen if you switched to Verizon.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] nerys71:
its not about breaking the bank. its about what is right and wrong. charging for something you can't use is not right no matter how cheap it is. PERIOD.

and its not illegal. its a violation of your TOS and nothing more.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jjdevega:
Thanks I just applied what you did it it finally works!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] nerys71:
talk about strange. when I say you mention superuser versus SuperSu I checked my S3 and N2. the S3 which is WORKING with wifi tether HAS Superuser not SuperSu while the Note II where it does not work has SuperSu. Grrrr :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dito33:
How you uninstall superuser, it won't let me, or I should just disable it.

I "Froze" mine with ROM Toolbox Pro. You can do the same with Titanium Backup as well.

Ditto! I froze my superuser with ROM Toolbox Pro to allow Super SU to do it's thing. Now the tether is finally working on my FreeGS3 JB rom.

Best news I have seen on here in a LONG time! Thanks OP for posting! I'm on FreeGS3 rom and didn't even change any settings. Worked like a charm!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] guisar:
It's NOT illegal, not even vaguely so stop using inflammatory and completely wrong terminology.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] nacron:
Did you have wifi tether before flashing JB? I think the superuser app sometimes has problems triggering to prompt for permission. I just flashed over and I had wifi tether prior and it was allowed by superuser so that's why I think it worked fine for me.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dito33:
I got it, thanks guys.

So ive been following this thread pretty good, and im still really green at this whole rootibg thing but I have a sprint gs3 all Ive done so far is just root it so im still stovk rom... anyway I cant get tether to sctually work ive used SU and superuser ive ttied switching in between diff modrls under types of phone tinkered eith diff channels ive uninstalled reinstalled wiped cache poerred up anf down nothing works... itll get picked up by other devices but itll tty anf connect s few times but never will any ideas?

Yes, but superuser still prompted for permission about 20 times after the initial startup of the TrevE version.

Odd response given that I didn't say anything about illegal...

Worked great for me, rooted running stock pre-rooted ROM.

*Edit - Doesn't seem to work for me when wifi encryption is enabled for the connection.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] numero9:
So it'll work after doing all those 20x SuperUser pop-ups? Seemed to work fine after all that, just annoying.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mystery_tx_man:
you can go into superuser settings and turn off those notifications.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] crazeebiker:
thank you TrevE
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] slickdealers:
Got it working with the encryption enabled! :victory: All I did was install SuperSU. I'm on stock Jellybean that's rooted.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] lawsofpower48:
this doesnt seem to work with 4g? when i tether it bounces back to 3g? anyone else try this?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Neil Fruit:
Are you in a fringe LTE area because it works on 4G for me. In fact it is faster than my cable internet.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] TajMahal_:
Worked for me on stock JB rom and Blazer :good:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] lawsofpower48:
it might be. im unsure. but i tried it for a few hours and everytime it seems that when i turned on my tether while 4g is running, it then shoots back to 3g. i turn off the tether and 4g comes back.... but it could be that im not getting full 4g reception...im really unsure. but the few times i tested, it was turning off.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Sleestax:
Is there a newer treve version that supports encryption?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] BigRed Productions:
Yay!

Big thanks to Trev for getting this wireless tether situated.

Quick rundown. Im running stock rom rooted and messing with this for a few hours now. Finally installed SuperSU over Superuser and everything works properly. Was also able to get it to run with security enabled (currently connected and browsing as I type) after the SuperSU install.

I seen people complaining about slow speeds and would like to know if this is the culprit or if this was a coincidence: disabled access control and my speeds shot up by about 600kbps. (using speedtest.net through computer browser, ran multiple tests). Was getting 900kbps and jumped to 1.54kbps. Can anyone else test this and report back?

Lastly, for myself and those installing superSU, anyone know if I really need to do anything with superuser? I installed superSU and everything appears to be running correct. My understanding is superSU rewrote the binaries making superuser rendered inoperable until I open superuser and rewrite the binaries.

Oh yeah...using the WiFi-Tether that was pushed 22 Nov 2012 from here: QBking77 Download page

Thanks Again
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] evilbananawind:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] teh roxxorz:
For those saying it doesn't work, you need to change the device profile to sprint galaxy nexus cdma/lte in the settings.

I'm using the one I got off of qbking77's website. I think it was version 18? It might have been updated to a newer version by now though.

I noticed that when using the app and after you choose the app, the Wi-Fi stops working. Only way to get wifi working again is to reboot. Has this been fixed or does it still kills the wifi?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CNexus:
Theres an option in Menu > settings that you need to select to fix that
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fishon975:
So go to menu/settings and then what's next?

[Nexus 10 General] rookiegenius:
Hey guys, as we know, the very first batch of any device likely will have some flaws. Hopefully this won't happen to the nexus 10. Anyway, Im a very picky consumer so I have to ensure my device is perfect. So I will list some of the things we need to check when the item arrives. feel free to give tips etc..

1/ Check the screen to see there are any dead pixels/ discolored area/ uneven white screen/ yellow or pink spots

2/ Light bleed

3/ any scratch on the body

4/Buttons are all good.

5/ Speakers

All I can think of so far..
[Nexus 10 General] Samzebian:
also would want to check if the cameras, radios, ports, battery and other such components work properly, along with checking along the seams of the tablet to make sure it is solidly put together.
[Nexus 10 General] BamAlmighty:
Microscope... check EVERY pixel.
[Nexus 10 General] derek826:
I also have a few questions. It has to deal with the snap on cover if anyone got those (if they are out). When you unfold the cover does the screen light up like the iPad does with its smart cover. And also can the cover be used as a stand or does it just fall over? And how bad is the lag on Chrome compared to anyone who has used Safari on an iPad. Thanks. I'm hoping to switch from my ipad to the nexus 10!
[Nexus 10 General] HoushaSen:
Add couple more

1. Check GPS

2. Pixel check can be done with https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ossibussoftware.deadpixeltest&hl=en
[Nexus 10 General] duarian:
Will Google even replaces screens with a couple dead pixels?
[Nexus 10 General] joeski27:
Well in my case they'd be replacing the screen whether they intended to or not. If I had to, I'd just order a new one, then send the old one back in its place and say I changed my mind. And that just if they didn't want to exchange a clearly defective product. Up to them, but either way I'm going to make it right for myself in the end :good:
[Nexus 10 General] Valynor:
With 2560x1600 x3 sub-pixels (=12.288.000 pixels) you will very likely not get a sample without a single defective sub-pixel. Doesn't really matter either, a stuck sub-pixel at 300 DPI resolution is so small that it will be hard to find even if you "know" where it is.
[Nexus 10 General] Tomatoes8:
My tab 10.1 and GS3 first batch were flawless. I expect a pretty close to perfect initial batch here as well. This isn't Asus or HTC.
[Nexus 10 General] snipestech:
Bam !

Good point !

Samsung has an excellent track record!

Nothing is for sure but every samsung product ive ever had has been perfect!

From my Note 2
[Nexus 10 General] Valynor:
It's not only about the company behind the product, it's also about math/probability.

Hint: Try counting the sub-pixels on the Galaxy 10.1 or S3 and compare to the N10.
[Nexus 10 General] rookiegenius:
not really...I guess it's a matter of luck. I bought my S3 in june and after 3 replacements, I got the satisfying one.

One thing concerns me the most is the screen. It's true that it's hard to get a screen without any dead pixels considering the huge amount of pixels. well, I really hope this won't happen since if I ever find out just one single dead pixel, it would turn me off really bad even if I normally can't see it. But you know, it is there... haha
[Nexus 10 General] Tomatoes8:
I forgot to include the legendary GS2 as another first batch flawless device. It might be about luck sometimes but generally you can deduce when it is safe to buy a first batch.

I use two methods that I feel pretty good about.

One, like I said, my GS2, tab 10.1, and GS3 were all flawless first batches for me. I realize that using just myself as a sample size is pretty shady statistically but if you look at the posts of complaints of the GS3 in May/June, they are far less than most devices.

Two, we know for a fact that Samsung is not only a manufacturer, but one of the if not the best manufacturer. Sure HTC and Apple are moving away from them, but it is not because of the quality. People trust their factories and manufacturing processes so unless the Nexus 10 uses some fancy new manufacturing process, Samsung already has the wisdom and experience and chances are, they won't need to make many changes to the manufacturing process like others might.
[Nexus 10 General] keenraven:
I'm not so sure we should expect the majority of units to have dead pixels. I deal a lot with high resolution 2560x1600 computer monitors and very rarely do I encounter dead/stuck pixels. You're right that they would be harder to notice because of the high pixel density, but I'll use pixel checker and send it back if there's an issue. Just because it's a smaller screen doesn't mathematically necessitate pixel issues. The 13in retina macbook pro has almost the same pixel density and of the few I've tested, none have any pixel issues.
[Nexus 10 General] Valynor:
Are you really spending maybe 15-30 minutes (if that's enough) to check each display in a dark room with dark-adapted eyes? :confused:

I'm asking that because as an example my Nexus 7 has 1 stuck blue sub-pixel almost smack in the middle of the screen, I know where it is and I still need about 10-20 seconds in a dark room with a (mostly) black screen to find it again - in daylight it's just plainly impossible to locate it. On a Retina/N10/WQXGA display this will be even harder.

It's my personal opinion that a lot of the people posting here how their displays are perfect with zero errors just never see any of their stuck/dark sub-pixels. They're really that hard to find unless you have bad luck and get a completely broken pixel or a cluster of broken sub-pixels in close proximity.
[Nexus 10 General] rookiegenius:
first thing I do is go to my closet and turn the brightness all the way up... lol I can not live with dead pixels..
[Nexus 10 General] Valynor:
Whatever brings more happiness into your live ... :p

My personal view on sub-pixel errors is: if I have to search for them to see them ... I don't really care about them. ;)

A full stuck/dark pixel (or anything that catches the eye) is a reason to send the device back though, no doubt about that.
[Nexus 10 General] MikeBuck:
I thought I was a bit wierd doing this to test for Light Bleed! lol I feel slightly better now!:rolleyes:
[Nexus 10 General] keenraven:
I tend to do that anyway for light bleed... That's my worry. My Nexus 7 has pretty bad light bleed, and i'm okay with that because it's a cheap tablet, but I won't be happy if the Nexus 10 has bleed like that one. I can deal with a minor amount around the edges, but it's really annoying if it extends to the center of the screen, etc.
[Nexus 10 General] Nitemare3219:
Not really true. My monitor is 2560x1440 and I promise you, there are no dead pixels. Granted it's 27", and the Nexus is only 10", it may be a little harder to see, but throw up solid color backgrounds and you will probably see it.
[Nexus 10 General] tcb4:
Ugh, I got one with dust under the screen. Its pretty small, but its smack dab in the center. Ahh well, looks like I might just have to live with it because of them being out of stock and all. I notice it has a 1 year warranty so I should be able to exchange it at anytime.

---------- Post added at 06:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:22 PM ----------

What do you guys think I should do? I kind of feel like I would rather just live with it than wait a month or more to return it and have them send me a new one.
[Nexus 10 General] Vertron:
Does the screen have any other issues like light bleed, etc?

I remember my laptop had exactly the same problem, a hair under the middle of screen. The rest of the screen was perfect with a very good black level and colours.

I thought it would annoy me so I got it replaced. The replacement had very bad light bleed all through the entire screen, it looked awful. I ended up changing it 2 more times and both had equally bad backlight bleed.

If you can live with it then just keep it and don't even bother getting a warranty replacement in the future.

If it annoys you, I'ld get it replaced now your still in your return period. If the replacement is bad too then just give up and get a refund. Trust me, if you plan to watch any media on your device, there is nothing worse than bad backlight bleed.

Slight bleed is ok, but some of the photos people have been taking of bleed on their device looks awful to me.

First of all, apologies for the location of this post but it appears that I'm unable to post anything in the on-site marketplace as I haven't had enough posts - I've tried to not bother people with trivial questions and it seems to have backfired as now I can't access a part of the forum that I need! Ah well! And, while I'm at it, sorry for the typo in the title, I only noticed after I'd posted and couldn't amend it to "tough".

I'm looking for a case for my HD2 to protect it from the inevitable knocks it's likely to receive on an upcoming, extended trip around Central America, and I'm struggling to find anything here in the UK. I'm not limiting myself to the otterbox brand but I've not seen anything from another manufacturer that would fit my phone. Any links to vendors would be appreciated if no one has a case for sale.
[Windows Phone 8 General] garak0410:
This is a MAJOR problem and if they want to avoid people returning their phones within 30 days, this needs to be fixed. If someone is coming from iPhone, they will be totally lost on how to get music to their phone. In reality, it would be via XBOX Music but the entire experience is horrid and let me explain:

No Real Way To Sync - Yes, you can use Windows Media Player but it will not sync ZunePass/XBOX Music Pass songs.

Album Art - Spotty at best if you use the Windows Phone app to transfer music. If you download straight your phone, it seems to be OK

XBOX Music Cloud - What a mess! What is this info anyway? It isn't like Google Music and all of our music. It seems to be metadata from the main PC or Zune Software. I'd love to sync playlists and music between my devices but this thing is an absolute mess. Right now, I have this turned off on my devices.

Playlist Creation - Not only can't we sync our playlists from our PC (Zune Playlists) but you can't create one on the phone. And I once tried to create a playlist (streaming) so it would sync between my devices and it never showed up. Just the aforementioned mess in the music cloud shows up.

Delete Music Off Of Phone - Is it me or is there no way to remove music off the phone from the phone itself?

This is not a gripe session but legimtate broken things that need to get fixed. At the VERY least, get a fix for Windows Media Player so it can sync ZunePass songs!

[Windows Phone 8 General] adiliyo:
you can download cloud music, longpress on it and select download, also when you are in a song list, there is the first option for multiselect at the bottom, you can then check whatever you want and download it all at once.

to delete music off the phone longpress the song (or use the multiselect button and check songs, keep in mind, the multiselect icon only shows up in song view) and then choose delete or the trash can.

i agree the software needs to improve a lot, i'm quite surprised that it was released in a state that isn't even at parity with the zune software. it does seem like they are trying to push people away from using sync software and more into using cloud services to do it all though, but they need to work on UX a bit more before that is going to be simple for new users.

Since I have two laptops and a surface with the same music. Each day i am seeing music show up on phone. Since I don't have either one up for very long I think it will take awhile. I may just have to turn off standby this weekend and let it sync.
[Windows Phone 8 General] loudog3114:
I got the lumia 920, and I love it. However, the music sync is SO bad I am considering bringing it back and using my lumia 900 agian. Its absolutely awful. There is no way to rate music, no auto playlists, and about 97% of the time I try to sync music using the godawful windows phone desktop application it hangs trying to remove music. The only way to keep the process going properly is keeping my phone screen awake, awesome.

I am a long time zune user, which I beleive to be the best music device and desktop software made, and I cannot believe that instead of just changing the name of the zune software they ditched it altogether, and all functionality with it.
