I started tethering with sprint 10 years ago with a flip phone and usb cable and never had an intention of stopping. I don't know why so many are That defensive about their cell provider. I used to have some pride but after watching the other companies, esp VZW take off, it's no comparison. Sucks having to buy phones full price as to not lose unlimited data, but it's Worth it.

Someone else suggested an aosp rom. I didn't try that when I hit some kind of cap. Only tried wifi tether for root users, stock tether app, and pdanet. Again, this was with VZW, though it's strange they both act the same after getting up there in GBs

I asked legitimate questions with logs in other threads thinking it's a bug. Nobody is trying to fill anything with crud. I'm not *****ing, yes I want to play BF4, but I've been patiently waiting on the devs to sort it out. If all else fails, phone wipe, RUU stock and root over again!
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] :
It's funny that you claim "legitimate" questions in a thread essentially revolving around theft of service. It honestly doesn't matter whether or not you think Sprint is a scam, because you signed a legal and binding contract saying you agreed to follow Sprint's Terms of Service. It's caveat emptor, and this thread isn't so much of people defending Sprint so much as mocking someone for complaining about something they never paid for and legally cannot access not working.

Personally, if tethering works then I'm down, but as I'm not paying for it if it doesn't work, oh well. Tying a game console onto your phone as your best means of network access seems to be an odd choice, though.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] ajent:
it's definitely defense and sarcastic remarks from butthurt sprint fanboy's.

Whoa.....I do believe this thread was started on the intention to get "help" on a problem with tethering.....not to get ambushed by people disagreing on the topic bout tethering....if you disagree with the topic or don't wanna help, that's good....don't post if it isn't helpful and definitely don't bash anyone cuz you just simply disagree with them.....let's keep this a good community and help each other, not bash each other.......

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] XaoSilentrzk:
I agree totally bro, they are just trying to get mod attention. Anyways, I clean flashed OMJ Sense 5.5, didn't install any apps or use titanium BU, and tried to tether. It was a no go. For some odd reason, ONLY while trying to tether, data continues to drop to 3G. I clean flashed CM11 and tether wouldn't connect at all. Have you come up with any solutions yet?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] \m/:
I know my LTE is about as stable as nitrogen triiodide if I try to use it. If I'm just chilling and admiring my background, I can watch as my LTE stabilizes and mocks me. Sure, signal strength doesn't tell everything, but mine will hold onto LTE coverage until the point where I try to use it. For example, I could be in an area with great LTE coverage, connected to LTE, and the moment I pull up a Youtube video in HQ: sorry bro-- best I can do is 3G. Every. Time.

My wife's Sprint Note2? Never has had this issue, even with kool-aid damage.

I thought it might have been the ROM I was using, so I switched and it didn't make any difference. I returned completely back to stock and it still has this problem. So maybe your issue is a tower/capacity issue. If not, I would say it's just something with this phone. I doubt very highly that Sprint would be toying with your connection. If anything, it would probably be all or nothing.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] XaoSilentrzk:
I'm starting to think it just doesn't play nice with my ps3 anymore. It only drops when I connect to it & try to play GTA V or something. When I was messing around on my pc, I don't recall it dropping. I wasn't watching to see if it dropped while using pc tho
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] \m/:
Try it connected to the PC. Maybe try downloading a test file that is decently large sized so it has to maintain constant connection. You could go even further and download the same file from your phone's browser directly to your phone, see if the connection drops then. That would eliminate quite a few scenarios.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] OMJ:
it's not the ROM, it's not the phone, I have tethered to both laptop & PS4, 4G never drops....you're either being throttled for high usage or it's a network issue in your area.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] XaoSilentrzk:
That's what I was guessing. I didn't know they can tell when I'm tethering tho
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] ajent:
That's what's weird. I have no tether option on vzw and usually it works fine until I hit huge gb . If they can detect it and stop it I wonder why they don't at 1mb. Maybe it was coincidental in my situation. Also I was in their extended LTE area, (using a different companies tower) that could be why. Either way, I wonder how it knows.

The way I did get around it was having to plug in to the computer and usb tether. Since you want it for a console maybe you can usb tether to a computer,then share the internet from there
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Sim-X:
Way to contribute to making the network even slower than it already is. The network wasn't designed to be abused by cheap skates who don't want to get another connection. I hope they cancel your contract, it's because of people like you that they have to put throttling in place. Your totally shafting everyone else that uses the network.

Not that I condone it but loading up the full ebay.com on a laptop and loading up the full ebay.com consume the same amount of data.

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] the.emilio:
They can't tell if you're tethering. What they see is the fact that you are using a butt load of data. It would be an assumption made by them and the end result is a throttled data connection. There is nothing to help with in this thread except for the fact that the service is being abused and the company, Sprint, can do what they see fit to alleviate that problem. There are only two solutions: get broadband from an actual ISP or wait until your next billing cycle begins and your data usage is reset.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] XaoSilentrzk:
Lol I'm shafting everyone, but Sprint has had the slowest data speeds since I first joined lol. Must've been my fault back then with OG EVO & legitimate $29.99 tether add on too lol clown

I know you're trying to keep the peace but this guy has a history here and before you say something xao everybody knows stop denying it. People are pissed off he has gone through every dev thread asking for a fix while proudly bragging about how much data he has stolen. It's a lot deeper than you make it out to be. Aside from that nobody forced him to get back on topic on the dev threads, which were originally created to support a rom, not tethering which is just an extra they provide.

I am having issues with my 4g but I think have narrowed it down to a antenna error. Although the phone is only a couple months old been having issues with data connection.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Shadow_God:
I don't know the history.....I just know that he asked for help and I look in here and everyone is batching him about something that is in a custom Rom, which isn't right.......doesn't matter if it's stealing or not....it's in a Rom and he has all the right to ask for help or advice without getting batched....

If it matters tethering has been fixed in cm 11. The fix has been uploaded but not merged yet but it can be done manually right from your from. BTW the reason it has been broken is because Google kinda disabled it to prevent unauthorized tethering. That's in KitKat. ?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] jbuggydroid:
I tether every once and a while when I'm staying out of town for work tho I do it with the Verizon work phone that has unlimited data. I use pdanet so the phone gets somewhat of a charge but I've noticed that the battery will slowly drain and the phone gets hot. It's a droid 4 and much like the htc one it has a non removable battery... My question is aren't you worried that you could be wearing out your battery in your one faster by the constant tethering? Even on Wi-Fi tether the phone has to be getting hot

Entitlement issues over getting a paid for service for free and complaining that is not good enough.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] RayTrue04:
Technically it's not abusing the network as online gaming does not waste much data. Back when I was without Wi-Fi, I tethered tp my PS3 to play CoD like everyday all day and it barely wasted any data. About 55mb on hours of play were used according to the Wi-Fi tether data count. Unless you're going to be downloading full games or doing all types of required updates for games and apps the actual online gaming does not waste much. Most my data used actually came from the phone itself on YouTube/Netflix. I'm not even rooted and I blow through 30+ gigs on phone alone. Am I abusing the network too? I do pay for their service to use it. If you really want to abuse it watch Netflix from your ps3, that HD streaming would definitely be what I call abuse as one movie will be about 500+ mb in one shot..

people like the OP, who somehow think that its ok to steal, and, who signed a contract, agreeing to abide by the rules, whether they like them or not, cause the prices of products and services to go up for those of us who play by the rules.

If you don't like a company, don't do business with them.

But to some how think that its ok to steal from them, because you don't like the deal you previously agreed to just plain sucks..
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Red5:
Thank you, I think I will. Not only does XDA

NOT

condone the actions of stealing or trying to skirt by rules and regulations of other companies, we also dont condone people positing and bragging about it. If you have a tether issues, thats one thing, but if you are not allowed to tether as per the terms of your contract, then you are not supposed to. If you do, thats on you, but posting about it trying to bypass the carrier for a service you dont have is not what XDA is for. Whether that is or isnt the case in this instance, it seems to be the general topic in this thread so I wanted to make things clear.

Also, Im surprised hos long the trolling went on without someone reporting this thread. In any way, this is now closed by both the requests of the OP and because this thread has spun out of control.

Give this a try. You might have to figure out a new phone app dial number for step one as this is just copied and pasted (quite a while ago) from somebody on here i wish i could credit.

Step 1: Launch the Phone app on your Galaxy S4, and dial in: *#0011#

Step 2: Press the Menu button followed by the Back key. Then, hit the Menu button again and select KEY INPUT. Enter 1 and press the OK button to enter ServiceMode.

Step 3: Press Menu one more time and tap back again. This will pull up the Main Menu for ServiceMode. Tap [1] UMTS.

Step 4: Now select [1]DEBUG SCREEN, followed by [6] PHONE CONTROL.

Step 5: From the next screen, pick [6] NETWORK LOCK.

Step 6: You’ll get three options. Hit the one that says [3] PERSO SHA256 OFF.

Step 7: Now, you need to get back to Main Menu. To do this, hit the Menu button followed by the Back key. In Main Menu, now pick [6]COMMON, and then [6] NV REBUILD.

Step 8: The phone will tell you that a Golden Backup exists. Tap [4] Restore Back-up.

I have a Sprint HTC One.

Sim Unlocked,

Rooted

Bootloader Unlocked and other things, basically free from everything except Sprint.

Is there anyway I can completely remove everything off the phone as if coming out of the factory and turn it into an ATT or Verizon ect phone?

Because even thought I completely have it free from everything possible I still cant use it with any other carrier. I cant use it with Sprint this is why I wanted to use if with other carriers, I don't care who just anyone else except Sprint.

I cant seem to get a straight forward answer.

You could use it on T-Mobile or AT&T if it's sim unlock and you are in an area where it has the proper 3g bands. Another option is to flash to to boost, verizon but that will require a donor phone unless you know someone who will add phone into system
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SaddleTramp:
Ok I searched the forums trying to see if anybody else as seen this issue.

I have unlocked bootloader, rooted, stock system.

When I take the OTA 9.30/9.18. I temp unrooted with Voodoo OTA Rootkeeper > install OTA> then re-root the phone, no problems restoring root and able to run root apps that where already in Superuser app "Allow" list. Problem is if I try to run any new apps that request root they report back that my device is not rooted?

Su is in system/bin. I have come up with the same results twice on 2 different phones. If I take the phone back to 9.20 with root I can add new apps to Superuser "allow" list then take the OTA up to 9.30 and the newly added apps will work.

Edit: it seems to happen only after I update the SU Binaries, tried it on Superuser and SuperSU same results

Any one else seeing this? or is it just me. :)
[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bweN diorD:
I updated my phone same as you and kept root but can't test your issue until I get home later where the phone is.

What you could try is re-rooting with the unlocked boot loader method explained on the razr forum (link to the post is in one of the recent help/root threads here).

I know I kept root, but am interested to see if I have the same issue as you. This is the first I have seen it reported.

I am so curious about my phone ROM size. I'm not sure if I was cheated. My phone specs say that Internal Memory(ROM) is 4G but when I check it with Antutu, it show only 222MB. Was I cheated? Please check the link and attachment for screenshot.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] steelred:
Are you asking about your phones ROM, RAM or internal storage? The only number give in the Specifications is 4GB of internal memory... which means internal storage for apps and such.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Rexkh:
It should be 4GB but Antutu show only 222MB. That's why I'm curious. Did you check attachment for my screenshot?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] steelred:
No the attachment was unable to open for me... But to answer your question I have seen some factory installed ROM's as large as 6gb so im not suprised that most of your space has already been taken. Just add an Micro SD card. Another way to check is to hook it up to your PC and see how much space windows says it should have. You can also find the largest files and see if its bloatware or something else.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Rexkh:
OK, I attached JPG. Why 4GB turn to 222MB? It is not even close.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dntesinfrno:
First of all you are not in the right forum, this is the i747(m) forum. Secondly the information you are looking at is the physical memory (RAM), and the size of the rom that is installed (ROM, go figure). This simply means that the partition size to install an OS on your device is 222 MB large, which is stored on the internal storage (sdcard). The specs for the device list 4GB total internal storage, after subtracting system reserved space (ROM, Recovery, Bootloader, etc.) you are probably left with a little over 3 GB of actual accessible storage space. The screen shot you have provided does not include the internal storage capacity.
