[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lanwarrior:
I have AT&T Note with stock ICS (rooted of course). I tried many different tethering apps and so far none of them works. I have tried, for example,

- FoxFi

- Wifi Tether for rooted user 2.3-beta1

I tried to change the configuration, such as these:

- Change Device Profile: Generic ICS/JB (wlan0)

- Change Setup Method: Netd (master) - DO NOT use Netd-ndc

The problem is that the tethering starts, other device (laptop, tablets, etc.) can see the hotspot network, but it's either:

- No traffic sent

- Network is slow, like 0.1Kbps

I know it's not the Note or the other devices connecting to it, because:

- When tethering is running (FoxFi, Wifi Tether, etc.) I can still browse the Internet from the Note (not from other device) just fine

- All the other devices (laptop, tablets) can connect to the Internet when connected to other Wifi (home network, Clear hotspot, etc.)

So which one works for you?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lschuman:
I'm non rooted ICS and FoxFi has always worked for me. Have you tried the new version? It limits how long free users can use the app (not sure how much) but it might be worth a shot...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lanwarrior:
Did you sideload FoxFi? It's no longer shown from Google Play app in the Note, I only see the Key App ($6).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] amhatter:
Do you not have the tether built into your rom? I have always just used the "stock" tethering under setings menu.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lanwarrior:
I thought this is only of you have the tethering plan with the carrier? Wouldnt they force me to pay for the tethering plan if I use the built in app?

I don't tether much, just in emergency like in airport.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lschuman:
Foxfi link

Hello, go here: www.foxfi.com/bin

This will download the latest version of Foxfi to your Note. It does state that there are some limits to free usage but I don't know if that means it cuts you off after fifteen minutes or what. I also have a previous apk of Foxfi somewhere in my Note's download folder that doesn't mention a need to upgrade to the paid version.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Tomdg07:
What plan are you on?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lanwarrior:
Normal $30 plan / month... "unlimited" data for use on the Note. AT&T told me tethering cost another $20 / month.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] drnecropolis:
I just freeze "Tether Manager" with TiBu and it works perfect..

*Seems I didn't.. don't see tether manager in my list anymore.. I suppose it just works for me..

Say it, Don't spray it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Jamesyboy:
Freeze/delete tethering manager, then use the system tethering, or use a AOSP ROM, or one with FJMod
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] luis12285:
Lucky bastard
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lschuman:
Not that lucky; I had an unlimited plan too. AT&T began throttling after unlimited plans went over 3gb. I never did but I knew someone who was throttled. It took two minutes to open a text email.

Don't take this as criticism of AT&T, everyone throttles now except for Sprint. And I've had nothing but great experiences with their phone and data service, customer service, etc. I really like AT&T but didn't have a need for their unlimited plan anymore. I'd rather pay $10 if I go over 3gb than be throttled.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] baudilus:
I've been throttled once, and it wasn't that bad - the speed would be normal for the first few moments of a connection and the slow down. So small data transfers were fine, but streaming video etc. was not.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] HarmonyFlame:
I use the one built into my room on cm10. Works perfect. At&t hasn't throttled me nor have they added a tethering plan. Everything works very perfectly.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] kiltedthrower:
That's weird. When I've been throttled, it's never messed with my emails and text messages
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] lschuman:
Oh man! I just remembered my colleague was on T Mobile. That was insane, render your phone useless throttling. Good to know AT&T leaves some basic functions alone with its throttling. I may be in the minority but I really like AT&T and have always been well served by them.

While a part of me really dislikes the idea of throttling I can understand how some people killed it for us moderate users: another colleague of mine used to stream Netflix all the time, download torrent files and tether to his laptop constantly at home. One month he used more than 80GB.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] johnus:
It's actually 5GB for our LTE Notes. The older 3G plans are 3GB. Personally I don't want to pay another dime, and I rarely go over about 3.5-4GB/month, but the one time I did, I'm glad I still had data without having to pay another $10 just to get a few MB additional (I barely went over).
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blakestr:
So, I tried searching but couldn't come up with anything substantial. Apparantly this phone goes for $650ish on ebay...the problem is that appears to be just the International and no 4g version. Whenever I search for Sprint or 4g/lte the phone is selling for $799, $899. Wtf?!

Also, which online retailers have you guys purchased the Note 2 from? I'm not doing brick and mortar because they are way too expensive and are either out of stock anyway...not to mention having to pay taxes on the phone. There are international websites that sell them but I don't know which ones are legit, they all seem shady.

I've got the cash and am ready to buy this I just need to know where...was I mistaken when I assumed I could get this phone for $700 or less? Thanks for the help.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timlot:
HSPA+ isnt bad. Im getting between 5mb - 15mb on T-Mobile $30 plan (Houston has been reframed to 1900Mhz band). Battery life is much better than Lte would be.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rvbarton:
keep your eyes on eBay. They've been selling the International version for around $599. HSPA+ is pretty good. Not as good as LTE, but not as much drain on your battery either.

I've got the International version & love it!
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] doctorsax:
The LTE version is generally more expensive from what I can tell. The extra chip set doesn't come cheap. If you want one for under $700 then it probably won't have 4G.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] expertzero1:
I bought a 549 on ebay. Should be here tomorrow
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blakestr:
Well now you guys have me thinking...I'm on Sprint which offers 4G, it is fast but very unrealible to find. Otherwise it is SLOW, and the area that I am in mainly I won't see any benefit. I'm going to Straighttalk after a year so there is that too.

Should I get the 4g and spend extra money or do the HSPA one?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sleebus.jones:
I'm about to buy a SIM (probably tomorrow) and was surprised to see that you have seen Houston reframed? I was going to go straightalk for $45, but if I can get tmobile for $30, I'd really like to save the $15!

Are you seeing solid 3G all the time?

Only thing that is odd is the color choice...blue? I wasn't aware of a blue model.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elle233:
Yeah, the blue color was what arouse my curiosity.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sleebus.jones:
I'm in the exact same boat as you. I've got a Epic 4G with contract expiring 1st of December. Sprint's WiMAX is fast IF you are actually in a spot that has coverage, which I find few and far between. I work in downtown Houston on the 37th floor and have no 4G coverage, and flaky 3G coverage.

My personal recomendation is the HSPA phone.

I ended up with the 7100, because I need an international phone. LTE is too new, and there is no unity (yet) on frequencies. From what I understand, every carrier that has it in the US is on a different band. In the EU, expect to see LTE on 800/1800 MHz. What it all boils down to is that if you get the LTE version, you stand a very good chance of not having LTE coverage internationally. That may or may not be important to you.

If you go with the 7100, you'll get a phone that will do 21mbps on AT&T's network today, and 21mbps on TMO's network by mid 2013 as they finish reframing their HSPA+ service to the 1900 MHz band. If you do go international, the 7100 supports 3G HSPA+ on 900 and 2100 MHz, which are the ones used over there, so you'll get 21mbps internationally also.

The question really is "is 21mpbs fast enough?" For me, I think it is. I think by the time 21mbps seems slow, it'll be time to get a new phone anyway. ;)
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Reuven007:
Most people buy from independent vendors the International GSM SIM free version. I think Sprint and other versions are available from the carriers. If you want a CDMA Sprint version you are better off paying $300 with 2 year contract because you would need to use it with them anyway. (Some MVNO prepaid will let you use that phone on their networks).

In my opinion, if T-Mobile or AT&T service is good in your area, dump Sprint and free yourself with the International GT-N7100. It's available today for $599.99 at newegg.com

I've been running modified stock TW ROMS and they seem to be the only ROMS capable of running the 4.2 camera with out it freezing. Anything CM10 based freezes. I've searched the forums for a fix to no avail has anyone found a fix for this? I really love this camera and want to use CM10 based ROMS in the future.

Also is it possible to use WiFi-Direct on CM10 properly to transfer files? I see the WiFi-Direct option in the settings but cant seem to send files this way.

Thanks a bunch.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] goodtimes50:
I've done a fair amount of reading on this and I really don't think the 4.2 camera will work until we get the merged CM10 builds. I'm not sure why it appears to work with ICS TouchWiz roms, but as far as CM10 is concerned I think it's a pretty safe bet that it just won't work until we get 4.2.

Try flashing this camera package. This is the only one that seems to work for me for some reason. A friend of mine discovered this. I wish I knew where so I can credit them but try flashing this zip

It very well could be. The zip I sent you has photosphere working and with the gallery working. The editing portion works on few ROMS not all for some reason I've noticed. But the zip i sent you is the one I've been using.

I just use stock gallery to do my photo editing when i need to since 4.2 is mostly filters anyways but photosphere does work for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] SweSnow:
Hi!

I recently flashed franco kernel on my Galaxy Nexus running a fairly AOSP ROM based on 4.2. The device shut down and started booting as always when you flash franco kernel through his app. When the device booted again I only got to the screen with the google logo and not the bootanimation. I don't have a backup to restore since I foolishly deleated it right before I flashed the kernel (<- moron, right).

Now what I want to do is to push a new ROM to the device so I can flash it in CWM and thereby get a new kernel. How can this be achived? All help is very appreciated!

I am new to this website. I have a question. My phone is Rogers Samsung Galaxy S3. I flashed Cm10-20121125-nightly. Everything works fine except camera. When I took picture, My camera froze for a while and then saying that the Gallery not responding, When I close the camera and reopen camera, it says cant connect camera. If i took video or use sphereview, it works fine. Do you guy have any ideas what is going on? This drives me crazy.

[Asus Transformer TF700] coltstrgj:
First let me say that I hope that the mods dont see this thread as spam, I really do want to know, and hopefully the conclusion is unanimous.

Which tablet should I get? I have narrowed it down to the tf700t or the tf300t. You spent the extra money, so I am curious why there is a big price difference. Is the only difference the clock speed of the processor and the resolution, or is it something big that I am missing. Thanks ahead of time for any feedback. Also If anyone here has another suggestion for a first tablet let me know.
[Asus Transformer TF700] allan1313:
The major differences are the screen and the case (plastic vs aluminum).

Once you see the screen on the infinity you would not be able to go back. If you have the money I would get the infinity.
[Asus Transformer TF700] Divine_Madcat:
This post is ok so far.

What it comes down to, is if the extra res is worth it for you. I don't think anyone can really make the choice for you, and only you know your budget comfort level.

http://xdaforums.com/poll.php?do=showresults&pollid=9835

Looks like a lot of users in the TF300T forum section are very happy at slightly higher than half the cost of the Infinity.

Plus more apps from Play will be compatible with the TF300.
[Asus Transformer TF700] coltstrgj:
Thank you very much, I didn't even think to check the 300 forums (thanks everyone else too) I think I will probably end up getting the 300, but I would hate to spend all that money, and regret not getting the biggest, and the best. If anyone still has other suggestions I would be very happy to hear them.
