Kind of ticked up about being lead down the road that indicated just freezing the tethering provisioning was the solution to all my woes. Maybe it worked for some (are you on JB 4.1.1 with AT&T SGH-I747???) but not me. After a couple more hours of searching and searching, including all sorts of YouTube videos showing using FoxFi, Wifi Tether for Root, etc, and then a lot of recent comments about it nor working. Anyways.....

Soultion is a newer hacked version of Wifi Tether for Rooted user that is not on the Play Store and the apk has to be downloaded directly. Current version is here:

YouTube Video on it here:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ztsZH6Xj7A0

What a pain in the ass it took to finally find this. Guess that's the price you pay when you are brand new to Android and an OS update comes out two weeks after you got your phone and you install it the day it comes out. Sigh.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jazee:
Ugh. Got too excited too quick. You can't toggle Wifi back on after shutting down tethering without restarting﻿ phone! Guess it's going to be a few more days until some good developers come out with a simple one-app solution without issues. It was WAY easier to get free tethering on the jailbroken iPhone that this. I'm shocked this is so hard right now on Android JB 4.1.1. But I have to remember the OS update just came out.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] cincy1020:
Have there been any updates to this situation?

I have been dying to update to jelly bean (at&t, no root), but have had to hold off for fear that foxfi would stop working.

Thanks!
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] MasterDecker:
Search is down at the moment, but what I found was an app by a Dev here that enabled native tethering. When search comes back, just search for native tethering, and you should be golden. BUT you still need ROOT to be able to use it.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] fmllc:
You need to install the zip file to fix the native tethering!!!! http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=35072740#post35072740

And the native toggle will work! The first thing i mentioned in my last post! Forget about all those other programs....uninstall them even! lol. This is a fairly simple task you are making very difficult. Maybe you should just go back to crapple?

I use the native tether mod when I am at work and its usually only 50mbs or so. I also got a user agent changer extension for chrome so it matches my exact user agent on my phone browser. Also makes it load mobile only websites if they are available. Just started today. I figured it can't hurt. :eek:

[General Questions and Answers] JamesJoey:
I no longer have internet access on my G2x. I did a factory data reset and was going to restore all my backups form my SD but forgot I need Titanium Backup, which I purchased, to do this. I plugged in my phone to the USB. I went to my google account and Titanium show that it had been purchased. So I clicked install. The proper device was listed. I installed the key also. It now indicated that they are installed but I don't see Titanium Backup ion the apps drawer.

Ant way to get Titanium Backup back on my phone without the use of internet connection on my phone?

James
[General Questions and Answers] sd0070:
I'm a little confused about your situation. Do you have a ROM installed and running? How were you able to check the play store for TiBu if you have no internet or data connection? If you have a computer you can download the apk and load it into your phones storage via USB, then install it from there.
[General Questions and Answers] JamesJoey:
I don't have a rom installer. I haven't checked play store because I have no network connection.

I've already downloaded Titanium Backup to my computer and dragged and dropped to the cell phone. I now need something to install it with. I've searched the internet for apk installers but I'm more confused now than I ever was. I'm trying to get an apk installer I can run from Windows.

James
[General Questions and Answers] JamesJoey:
Hello??
[General Questions and Answers] sd0070:
Hmm... well if you don't have a ROM installed what good will titanium backup do? You can't run apps from recovery.
[General Questions and Answers] JamesJoey:
I'm not trying to recover!

I simply did a factory data reset. I forgot that I had to restore Titanium Backup in order to re-install my backed-up apps. I changed my t-mobile plan and have removed network. So, I was unable to use Play Store to download and install Titanium. I called tmobile and they gave me a day of access so I can download and install Titanium. Once I did that I didn't require downloading capabilities on my phone anymore 'cause I backed-up all my apps. I used Titanium to install these apps.

I'm trying my best to explain it but apparently I not doing a very good job.
[General Questions and Answers] sd0070:
Just load the apk onto the phone via USB (you said you did already actually) so just find the apk with a file explorer and click on it to install

---------- Post added at 08:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:56 PM ----------

Make sure in android settings you choose "allow 3rd party apps" or whatever
[General Questions and Answers] JamesJoey:
File Explorer? You mean something like Astro?

I have that. But, will Astro be available if I do a Factory Data Reset? :fingers-crossed:
[General Questions and Answers] JamesJoey:
You haven't helped me at all.
[General Questions and Answers] sd0070:
When you boot your phone does it load android normally so you can use apps and stuff? If yes, then use a file explorer like astro to find and click on the apk you want to install.
[General Questions and Answers] ItzCrooK2UxD:
You shouldn't need a data plan. Starbucks, McDonalds, Jiffy Lube and Denny's all have free WiFi hotspots and so do most libraries and colleges. Install Astro or whatever file manager you use (I use ES File Explorer). That said I would also use the hotspot to get Titanium.

Also have you tried adb to push the files onto your phone? Start here and here.

hey all. I've been using this forum for info for many years but never got around to signing up for an account. In retrospect I really should have taken care of this, as I cannot post this thread in the correct location :eek:

Anywho, I've been looking all day pretty much as to whether a gamepad is compatible with WP8. I read the xbox controller works on RT. I also saw many youtube videos of people playing GTAIII on their android phone with an xbox controller.....

I also could not find anything showing that ANY USB device would would work on WP8. I've found nothing. I tried searching this website as well. could not find anything. I'm aware that WP8 is a new OS, but I am just surprised that no one thought about that (not surprised if MS didn't think about it :silly: )

Can anyone confirm or deny this?? emulating games on wp8 with an xbox controller would be awesome.

Thanks for the help, and have a great day!

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mastarifla:
Hey XDA forum goers,

I was wondering what provider you are currently using and which company would be best for my circumstances. Currently I dont use more then 200 minutes per month but that should change shortly once I start using my phone for business/job purposes.

What are the speeds like on the Walmart Plan T-mobile vs Straight Talk T-mobile, are they roughly the same?

Is there any reason I should look into AT&T Straight Talk? I have had pretty good service with AT&T on contract before here in Dallas but it may be a different story with pre-paid.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] threeclaws:
I have ST Tmo and I'm coming from Tmo but I've also recently used ST ATT.

Speeds are the same with the 2 tmo options, ATT is slower. If you have good tmo coverage I would go st tmo if you have good att coverage I would go st att. I use too many minutes to be hamstrung by a 100min plan and the $15 difference (which is actually more like $8 since I buy 3mos at a time and get cashback) is worth it to me to not worry about minutes.

I'm sorry but the subject of "Can I use my tablet as a phone" is a tricky one, or at least not clear at all.

I'm planning to offer a tablet as a gift for my parents. So if I can phone with the Tab 2, then I'll buy it for Xmas. Otherwise, I have to find another one ! :D

So guys here are saying that the galaxy tab 2 has phone capabilities. Without any modifications ? Any country ? It works out of the box ?

DON'T USE ON XPERIA U, XPERIA P AND OTHER XPERIAS. KERNEL FILES PROVIDED ARE ONLY FOR XPERIA SOLA!!!

This is the same method used by naruto20007 in [Root - Locked Bootloader] Xperia P 6.1.1.B.1.54 so thanks him, i've only packed the two kernel ftf files for sola.

This works with LOCKED and UNLOCKED bootloader

I assume that you are running 6.1.1.B.1.54 firmware

You need:

1. Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry LINK

2. 6.1.1.B.1.10 and 6.1.1.B.1.54 stock kernel ftf files LINK

3. Flashtool LINK

INSTRUCTION

1. Flash MT27i_6.1.1.B.1.10_KERNEL.ftf with Flashtool and reboot

2. Root using Bin4ry's method

3. Flash MT27_6.1.1.B.1.54_KERNEL.ftf with Flashtool and reboot

After flashing the 6.1.1.B.1.10 kernel your icons can turn black, don't worry and go on.

If you have unlocked bootloader you can also root by flashing TheBrainsKernel

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] suraj93:
Not really sure about ftf, but what I did was use WinRar or something similar to get the kernel.sin out. Connected in fastboot mode, and flashed that.

The kernel's are mostly the same I think. Very minor differences between the region ftf's, mostly in language support, bloatware and things like that. Since the base OS is the same, the kernel is most likely the same.

I'm not sure you can remove loader.sin. Deselecting all of the checkboxes gives me loader and kernel.
