[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zomgitsanoob:
I want to get rid of some pre-installed apps and get tethering working. I found these instructions, but they seem to be for users in the UK, and I live in the US. IDK whether installing that ROM would work or leave me with useless brick.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] es0tericcha0s:
Wouldn't recommend it. Especially since you probably don't have access to the original firmware / rom from Cricket-ZTE to restore it if it does not work. Plus it doesn't say which update that was based off of and it might not be compatible with your firmware at all.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gamegamerlol:
Hello XDA,

I've been having this problem for a while, but I'm in need of a hotspot badly for the next few months. Anyway, I'm rooted on stock and I've tried using both FoxFi and TrevE's tether apps. FoxFi fails to start and TrevE's won't let me set a password. I live on campus and am a college student, which is why I need a hotspot because I'd like to work in my dorm, but the wifi is crap. Since I live in a dorm I don't want 20 other people connecting to my unsecured hotspot, is there any other wifi tether apps, a fix, or a ROM that has a working hotspot?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] z50king:
I got my gf a nexus 4 over a year ago and set up a Gmail account for her. She never used the Gmail account except for contacts. She saved contacts only to this Gmail account.

We were driving home today and she asked me how to add her work email to the phone. I told her settings, accounts, Google, add account. She added the account and it worked. Then, without telling me, because she has some ocd about erasing things from her phone, she deleted the original Gmail account.

About an hour ago, she tried to call her sister and her original contacts were erased. She told me what she did.

She does not remember the name of the Gmail account. I do not remember the name I created it as. Is there anywhere on the phone where just the name of the original Gmail addressed would be saved? That would get us started at guessing the password.

Any help is appreciated.

Thank you,

Eric
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zakk87:
you can try login to gmail with google chrome (maybe there is some database where email was stored).

you can search a logcat for an email.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greg17477:
Another suggestion: check your own contacts. Maybe your girlfriends contact details include her gmail address.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheNerd:]:
Get a new girlfriend ;)

Check to see if the email is logged in to any other devices if not well tough luck
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] z50king:
Thanks guys. I used Google recovery website associated with her name and found the address. I got the password on the first try.

Thank you guys. I look really good right now

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaho434:
So, I've got a relatively new stock, NC4, rooted device. No Safestrap installed. Rooted using towelroot. Only root apps installed are Wanam xposed and Titanium.

When I take a photo with the stock camera app, if the "processing" progress bar does NOT show after taking the shot, the photo seems to have taken properly and all is as it should be.

However, any time I take a photo and the "processing" progress bar appears immediately afterward, the actual photo that saves seems to be whatever is in the viewfinder at the time the progress bar completes! Eg, I take a photo of object A, the "processing" progress bar appears, I move the camera to a different view with object B in it, then once the progress bar completes, I look in the gallery and the last photo is of object B!

Anybody seen this before or know what's going on here?

Thanks.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] tonys:
Hi...Can anyone help. I have a new 1605 from Vodafone and although I have battled through and got most of it working, I just can't send MMS messages. I know my account is correctly set up because vodafone have checked it and, I could send them from my old phone using the same number. When I try to send a MMS I get an icon that looks like a little clock and it just stays there until eventually, after about 3-4 hours, it changes to a red cross and I get a message saying it couldn't be sent. Has anyone got any ideas? Thanks.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] dragoon9793:
Hi everyone,

As the title says, my phone simply will not boot past the samsung logo. I insert the battery, a few seconds later there is a vibration. Then the samsung logo appears, and it shuts down. It does not reboot itself; it just suddenly dies. After it the shutdown, all buttons are unresponsive; holding the power button will do nothing.

I have tried plugging in the charger both with and without the battery inside the phone. When I plug in the charger, the red LED that indicates that it is charging turns on. After a few seconds it vibrates, then almost immediately the red LED light flickers off, and everything is just as unresponsive as before. Leaving the charger inside will yield no results or change.

I have tried to turn my phone on with the battery and charger plug into the phone with a few variations. First, charger first, then battery. The battery is inserted within a second or two of plugging in the charger. The red LED light appears, then the light turns off right before the vibration. The screen shows the battery logo that indicates the phone is charging. This image appears for a few seconds, then it becomes unresponsive as before. Second, battery first, then charger. There are two more variations for this. One is battery, then plugging in the charger right after the battery is put in (before the vibration is felt). After the vibration, the battery logo appears for a few seconds before it shuts down and becomes unresponsive again. The second variation is: battery first, then vibration, then right after the charger. Same result as before.

I have also tried to remove both sim card and sd card. No avail.

I have tried to boot it into recovery mode, as well as download mode. Nevertheless, the phone will shut down before getting into any menus.

I have tried to tap the power button multiple times in case the power button and home button were stuck or jammed. However, I doubt this is the problem.

My computer will not recognize my phone, since I cannot boot it past the samsung logo.

I have tried using different batteries, same issue.

I am aware that a factory reset may be an option that I may have to take, but I have some important data on my phone that is not backed up, and I would very much prefer not to lose it all. I would appreciate any insight on how to fix my problem.

Thanks!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] invario:
Mine was doing this for a bit until I realized my power button was stuck. The button seemed to press fine and all and looked fine physically, but the contact was somehow stuck. Take apart the phone, direct some compressed air into it using the little 'straw' for the nozzle to focus it... Also try pressing the button a bunch of times hard, etc. And see if that helps.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] dragoon9793:
Fixed it! Opened it up, jiggled around with the power button stuff. I had no idea what I was doing. I blew, with my mouth, really hard on it. Now it works. laaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwll

You helped! Thankyou
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Now would be a good time to backup that important data. A lot of the time, that's is just a temporary fix and it may happen again.
[T-Mobile LG G3] crazylilazn:
So over the past week, I've discovered that Fabio Grasso's Wifi Tether Router app has stopped working for my t-mobile LG G3. I tried different configurations, tried e-mailing the dev, and I tried changing the APN. None of it worked.

(Regarding the APN, he says to change T-Mobile to IPv4, but I can only change it to IPv4/IPv6. If I try putting solely IPv4, then my data connection drops out entirely).

Moving on, anyway, I've found out that if I use the Wifi tether router app, I can only access HTTPS sites. For example, any banking site, facebook, google, yahoo, etc. all work as long as I stick https:// in front of it. However, anything else won't work (like xda).

So I can only assume that T-mobile is somehow blocking that traffic...and now I need a way to disguise my own traffic...

I tried connecting through OpenVPN through a VPN I had, but even that won't connect properly.

And before anybody says to install the stock tether app Mod, I'm still on the stock recovery so I can't flash anything.

I'm on the stock recovery (but I'm still rooted) because I prefer to mess with my device as little as possible. I want to keep it as stable as possible, and having a stock recovery means I'm not tempted to go out and install new ROMs or flash anything that could potentially brick my device.

So...does anybody have any solutions? This is like a tug-of-war with T-Mobile, and right now it's in their favor.
[T-Mobile LG G3] mgbotoe:
This is old news. T-mobile made it knonw they would start blocking tether if it is being mistreated. Devs will have to become more clever and trickier with their apps. With this in mind, just be careful. They said anything that goes against the contract you signed regarding their data usage / tethering will cause your tethering to be cut of if data not cut of for that month (can't remember the full detail)
[T-Mobile LG G3] crazylilazn:
Well this is the first time I've experienced any issues. I have a total of 11gb usage this month, and it's almost over. 95% of usage is on mobile, so I see no reason for them to even become suspicious. I doubt I'll be cut off. The "warning" they gave a couple weeks ago referred to like 20 customers or something that were using hundreds of gigs of data.

In any case, I really hope devs can find permanent ways around this.

By the way, I don't really understand ports/encryption, but I know that "443" is secured, so how possible is it for me to just manually make everything go through that port?
[T-Mobile LG G3] ThePagel:
Download THIS zip and extract it then find the APN XML and replace your old one with the one in the zip you extracted. Boom you should have full ipv4 for your tether app and vpn.

Make sure you rename instead of completely replacing. You'll probably need to restart and if it still doesn't work that means dalvik needs to be wiped and your Sol unless you want to install twrp. Unless a app exists that can wipe dalvik without recovery.
[T-Mobile LG G3] crazylilazn:
Okay now this is getting interesting.

Although this is getting into brick-able territory. With my LG G2 when I messed with build.prop I almost soft-bricked it.

In any case, I can't seem to find out exactly how to modify the APN XML, and a quick google search is just showing me "apns-conf.xml", is that the same thing? Is it just a value inside build.prop?

Also, the warning on the xda mod page says "TETHER BROKE FOR NOW". Does that only apply to stock tether or something?

Edit: Nevermind, looked through the zip file and it turns out the apns-conf.xml file is under system/etc.

I'm still worried that this could cause some damage though. Lemme just double check - not brickable if I just replace, correct? and Also, I can create a backup of the apns-conf.xml and restore it without any issue, correct?
[T-Mobile LG G3] ThePagel:
Yes stock tether but the APN in that zip won't wreck it its the build prop edits that broke built-in tether. You won't need to do any builp prop edits just swap out your APN.XML for the one located in that zip.
[T-Mobile LG G3] crazylilazn:
Alright cool, well I looked through the zip file and I found what to replace, just wanted to double check though (made an edit above but you won't get the notification for that)

So to be clear - I change the apns-conf.xml file under system/etc , correct?

and 2) This has no possibility of breaking my device?

and 3) If I create a backup of my current apns-conf.xml , and then in the future I want to restore that backup, there will be no issue/conflict?

Thanks for the help
[T-Mobile LG G3] ThePagel:
1 yes

2 always the possibility but extremely unlikely

3 yes but just like #2 you could possibly run into complications but its unlikely.

[T-Mobile LG G3] crazylilazn:
I looked through that entire thread last night, and I discovered that somebody was having issues with Wifi calling after installing the mod, so I got nervous and backed out even though I've already created a backup of the xml, lol.

Do you know if wifi calling + texting still works? That's a dealbreaker for me if it doesn't, because I use wifi calling/texting all the time.
[T-Mobile LG G3] ThePagel:
They do I use it every day.
[T-Mobile LG G3] motoridersd:
apns-conf.xml does not break WiFi calling or texting. This is where the tethering APN is stored. What could break WiFi calling is modifying build.prop.

I'm pretty sure they have deep packet inspection on their network and they can tell exactly what kind of traffic is being done. Any traffic using the fast.t-mobile.com APN that doesn't look like mobile can be very easily blocked. You can't deep packet inspect SSL (https) traffic, so I'm not surprised this works but everything else does not. An SSL VPN would get around this.

I'm using the PrimeTether mod which basically modifies the stock tethering to use the mobile APN so that your data looks like it's coming from the phone. WiFi Tether Router might be doing something different that T-Mobile can see and that's how they are blocking it. It actually might be that WiFi Tether Router is tethering using IPV4. The stock tether app tethers with IPV6.
[T-Mobile LG G3] ThePagel:
The prime tether changes one line in the framework-res to the fast APN. At least that's all I had to do. I never released my version because auto beat me to the upload.
[T-Mobile LG G3] motoridersd:
He changed more than that. I had made that change to framework-res but was still having issues with my stock tether. There's a check being done by the tether process. I believe he modified the smali code to get around this, just like it had to be done for the G2.
[T-Mobile LG G3] ThePagel:
Are you sure? The change plus the APN XML I use worked flawlessly for me. Perhaps it was just the perfect storm of mods I had at the time.
[T-Mobile LG G3] motoridersd:
I believe so, but could be wrong. I couldn't get it to work and had zeroed in on the smali file that needed to be changed. I believe I did a checksum comparison and found them to be different.

Without prime's mod I could only tether up to my 3 GB bucket or had to do a dirty hack to hostapd for it to allow wireless clients to connect. It would default to 0 clients for some reason. Maybe I had a weird storm of mods that broke it.
[T-Mobile LG G3] JustLok:
The way you worded that, you describe Prime's mod as using IPv6 to work around Tmo's tether limit, but it doesn't, it must use IPv4 to "mask" it.

When I change the APN back to IPv6, my hotspot enables but does not work whatsoever, nothing loads on my laptop, it'll connect and obtain an IP but no traffic is sent nor received over the phone's data. Can't remember if it's suppose to be like that or not, but IPv4 works, IPv6 does not with hotspot, but data stills work either way on the phone itself. I'll post over in Prime's thread about this.

BTW, WiFi Tether Router borked for me two about three weeks ago, a few days after Prime's mod came up, luckily. Been using it ever since. :highfive:
[T-Mobile LG G3] motoridersd:
It has been a while so I forgot how Prime and WiFi Tether Router worked. The stock tether app, with the stock tethering APN uses IPV6, but you're right, Prime's mod uses IPV4 with the mobile data APN.

WiFi Tether Router implements its own DHCP server, iptables and hostapd configuration. Something in the way it does things makes the traffic look different from the stock tether traffic, so T-Mobile is able to block it.
[T-Mobile LG G3] starkruzr:
This is remarkable to me. It SHOULD look completely the same with the exception of user-agent (which is easy to spoof).

I've been using EasyTether (the USB version) and they have yet to figure out how to block that AFAICT.
[T-Mobile LG G3] motoridersd:
That was my assumption, but I don't see why it would be different either.

I just tried WiFi Tether Router on my phone and it worked just as well as it had in the past. I did some tcpdumps and the traffic looks the same on both. My guess then would be the users that are getting throttled or blocked are doing things that are CLEARLY not mobile phone traffic.

Another user did 32 GB of Xbox Live traffic while using the PrimeTether mod and was throttled. Surprise? No.

Those getting blocked or throttled are probably abusing the system.
[T-Mobile LG G3] Killer Waves:
Wifi tether router works for me on my tmobile S5.
[T-Mobile LG G3] motoridersd:
You do know that you are breaking the ToS and you can be throttled at any time right?

The data is truly unlimited as long as you use it on your phone or tablet. There is no unlimited Mobile Hotspot plan with T-Mobile or any carrier. I'm glad it's working for you, but for anyone relying on this as a solution, beware, and don't complain when T-Mobile starts enforcing the terms you agreed to when you activated the service.
[T-Mobile LG G3] hypersonicx:
Im doing the same thing. I use my wife G3 with AutoPrime hotspot tether hack and I did 100+ GB last month with no problems.

If your using wifi tether related apps, just use the AutoPrime hack. Its works perfectly full unlimited tethering with no problems.
[T-Mobile LG G3] timmay237:
You could try PDANet my friend uses that all the time and it works fine
[T-Mobile LG G3] bodom_hc:
Why dont you just flash the tether mod?

Works flawless. I use 100gb + per month.

Hey! We do have that menu (3845#*851#) and the upsell option in settings. However, this is what's happening (apologies about huge pics):

Seems like no matter what options you choose, there is no "ok" or confirm button for the selection. I've checked global settings and this menu had 0 effect on it. Can somebody else try? Alternatively, a small script could be written to toggle the dun option manually.
[General Questions and Answers] Mahraf:
Hi guys! I just got the samsung s4 i9506 yesterday. As much as i like the phone and everything it came with, i rooted it using towelroot. Everything was fine and dandy, until i decided to update it using kies. It now runs 4.4.2 kitkat. This is really bad as towelroot won't work. Only way i figured to root it is by tripping KNOX. Someone please help me with a few questions please

What might happen if i trip KNOX?

What are the consequences?

What effects might it have on my phone?

Will I be able to update my phone to later firmware?

Will I be able to install custom roms?

What are the differences of having tripped KNOX?

FYI, I don't think i'll be using KNOX...EVER

Did some more digging... Looks like it won't support LTE in the U.S.

But it supports WCDMA (UMTS) bands 850/1900/2100. T-mobile uses 1900 (and 1700/2100), so it should support HSPA and HSPA+.
