I worked engineer 4 years ago at mobile operator. I heard many myths about tracking your camera, position, wiretaps and other. I can say with certainty - the only way to remote control your camera is installed spy app which will track it. Your mobile operator can't control your camera. I think someone would definitely found this long time ago, if this ability was on Android. It's not so easy to hide spy service like that. You can remember HTC story with spy scandal or even Google + Apple mobile\gps illegal tracking.

PLEASE USE WITH CAUTION AND ONLY IF YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING. I WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR BRICKED DEVICES.

You may have noticed that the Nexus 7 3G does not have the tethering options enabled by default.

I couldn't live with that (that was partially the point why I got the 3G version), so have patched the framework to enable those options. Partial credits go to PaulOBrien@MoDaCo who has fixed the apktool for Android 4.2 .

To get it to work just flash the ZIP below. It will only work on the JOP40D and JOP40C releases, and obviously only if you have a 3G device. Please do not try it on the WiFi-only Nexus 7 :) .

Please note that it doesn't do a backup of the original framework-res.apk, so you can either make one yourself, or you can reflash the factory system image if you want to go back to stock later.

Unfortunately voice calls seem to be blocked at radio level. If you try to do voice dial, it craps out with a CME ERROR 4 (Operation not supported). So unfortunately it looks like it will need to be a radio hack, which is beyond me (and I don't want to risk bricking the device :) )

Yup, I think that might be the nail in the coffin.

I don't know anything about radio hardware, but I imagine it's cheaper to use data only components versus ones that support data and voice. If that's true, I'm not surprised that Assus decided to use the cheaper components. Whether this can be fixed with a different radio firmware or hardware hack is up to someone smarter than I, but it looks like we're stuck with data only.

[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] H4CK_H0PP3R:
How did you enabled voice calling ? Is it possible?
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] phonic:
Yes and no. You can enable the FUNCTION of voice calling in the framework (it's in values/bools.xml). All this does is allow the dialer to come up. However, so far, no one has been able to actually get voice calls to work through it.

Is there a reason why customized versions of framework.apk are half the size of the original?
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] NORCALkID:
What do you mean by customized?... there's a difference between an odexed apk and deodexed apk and that will change the size of it.
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] phonic:
What I mean is, when I decompile, modify and recompile the framework.apk file, making only a 1 character change effectively, the filesize of the apk goes from ~9MB to ~5MB.

I highly doubt the actual hardware is any different, it would be more expensive to produce two different pieces of silicon. They may be "disabled" physically, however I doubt it, it is most likely the radio's firmware.
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] stridger:
I agree with that. It will be similar to the 3G Galaxy Tab, where you can enable the functionality through a custom radio:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1875024

I don't know whether this was a leaked or a hacked radio, but I'm sure it must be possible in software, it just may be very hard.
[Nexus 7 3G Android Development] cmstlist:
We're off topic here but just to point out, if it's a radio hack then part of the challenge is finding radio firmware for a comparable device that does have phone functionality enabled. On the Samsung devices, many of th em have parts in common that made it easy to cross flash radios.

Asus has not released very many phones as they have concentrated on the tablet market. Neither of the Padfones uses a Tegra 3 so I wouldn't imagine the radios would be cross compatible.

To revive a moderately old thread. I just bought a nexus 7 4g and was extremely annoyed to find that it didn't have tethering available. I've been searching most of the day to get this fixed and ended up here. Unfortunately, I don't want to root my tablet because I'm not sure I'm going to keep it. I stumbled across something interesting and was hoping someone with more android experience might be able to take it to the next level. Maybe this is all stuff that you know and have dismissed for reasons that I'm too dumb have to figured out, but I read this entire thread and didn't see any reference to it.

It appears that tethering is available to at least some degree. I found a link that said if you use 'power toggles' to turn on tethering you can see androidap but can't connect because the password isn't known. I used a free app called TetherSetting to change the SSID and password, now I can connect but can't get beyond this point, the connection is listed as 'limited'. Looks like I'm not getting DHCP (getting a 169.x.x.x address). Any hope here?
