So lets see here. You are using a PDA with media net and you should be using the PDA personal plan. And you are seriously *****ing about the speed.

Then do this. Call ATT customer care and complain about the speed of your downloads using media net. See what they tell you. Im not wanting to sound like one of those moronic douche bags at customer care. But seriously think about what your saying.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] KD8DNS:
Isp.cingular is for tethering.

However with the correct PDA feature (pda connect) your data will not be routed through 2 firewalls, actually it wont be routed through any.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] KD8DNS:
You are exactly correct.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] P1Tater:
Correct. I was mistaken in speeding up the downloads but it definitely makes my browsing much quicker.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] khaytsus:
And you're saying that it'll be any faster and reliable? PDA Personal is not the "ISP" connection AFAIK, so what would be different?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] NotATreoFan:
So since I have PDA Personal Unlimited, I should be able to connect through ISP.Cingular? I tried that a while back and it failed to connect... does ISP still require a User/Pass to authenticate?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] KD8DNS:
No, ISP is for the 60.00 tethering, and data cards.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] NotATreoFan:
Do you think the speed boost would be worth the jump to a tethering plan? I would get a 27% discount on the rate plan through my company.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ChumleyEX:
Notatreofan, can I get in on some friends and family or something.. I could be your second line.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] KD8DNS:
The "work" discount is only for the main line and features attached to it. It does not calculate the sub (9.99) users and features on it.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] KD8DNS:
Not unless your ALWAYS in a 3G market
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] NotATreoFan:
I am. Between Philadelphia, Montgomery, and Bucks counties, I never leave 3G coverage.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] KD8DNS:
Cool, If you tether than its completly worth it. but not if you just want to access isp from your phone only.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] punkhawaiian:
I have had the $20 media net max for years now and really appreciate att and cingular when I originally signed up for not ever cutting me off. I think if your are using more than 5gb a month you should be cut off. I have a slingbox and use now and then and have never gone over 2gb. Now with hulu.com I hope I dont go up too much.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] McHale:
We've seen these "threats" for years. Do you have a credible source for this? I'm not saying I don't believe you or it, but I've heard this for years and it's never been proven correct. In fact, AT&T just recently bragged about being "open" and allowing devices they don't carry. Nowhere in *that* statement did anything like this come in (not that they would be free with it of course).

I have had many, many different PDA's (including devices that THEY identify as PDA's) and never had an issue yet with my MediaMax 200. Now since they advertise Cingular...er... excuse me, CELLULAR Video and how much bandwidth it will take, this is the other side of their mouth and I've never seen anything that substantiates it.

This post is an almost every day occurrence on Howard Forums and after 60 pages of "OH MY GOD!" and "THOSE NAZIS!!!!" someone will come on and explain that while it's possible they could do this, they haven't yet and aren't any time soon. I need to see the small print to start to get excited about it.

If they take away my MediaMax, I'll go to T-Mobile out of principle. After 5 years of this plan, I've never used more than 100 megs a month. I'm not paying any more, period.

Now if this mainly occurs with those on $15 or $20 plans and you are tethering and "pushing the envelope" and really stealing the bandwidth, I won't feel bad about it...

-Mc
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] KD8DNS:
Well I guess you can ask anyone here and ask them if i am a credible source regarding att. furthermore if you have had media net since december 21 2004 you are grandfathered in.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] McHale:
Not needed. I just asked if they posted this anyplace because they can't enforce something they haven't made public someplace. I used to work for AT&T as a KAE and an engineer so am quite familiar with them as well.

As far as grandfathered plans goes, I always hear about salespeople boosting their numbers by removing and re-adding features. Since none of my plans are offered anymore, I'd be screwed.

Again, don't take my post as I don't believe you, you've been here long enough to not be a Howard Forums reject. But not knowing your source specifically, I take this ever reappearing rumor as a rumor until someone points me to an official statement or document.

Peace...

I do have a PDA plan, I pay $30 a month for unlimited data plan. I am confused about what plan you are talking about, because if my Tilt is not connected to wi-fi then it is connected to medianet via Edge or 3G. Is this the same medianet you are referring to? and since I have the $30 plan, are my terms of use different?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] DLTempler:
stumbled on this thread and glad I did

I too have the 20/mo plan for unlimited. Got it when the TILT first came out and still have it.

For a time, I was living in a place with no wireless internet. I put Internet Sharing program in use and was able to tether from the phone. Worked amazing. Very fast and reliable.

I had called ATT one day to find out about up'ing my minutes and I inquired of other data plans. The guy on the phone mentioned to me, "good thing you have that data plan because your bill would have been about $4,600.00"

WHAT?

I am back in a place with wireless internet and don't use the tether feature much. If I am in a meeting somewhere and can't get wireless internet I crank it up but that is not often.

Incidentally, tethering is against the ATT policy. It is right in the Terms of Use. Anyone who questions whether they can charge for something that is clearly not within the plan is taking the gamble.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] wiskid104:
so im confused? What is the 49.99 dollar plan? I notice allot of people talking about this 20 or 30 dollar plan then jumping to a 60 dollar amount. I have a 50 dollar plan that has unlimited media net and text? What plan is that called?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] DLTempler:
My 20 dollar plan was an unlimited data plan when I signed up. I think it gave me 200 texts too. When the iPhone came out, that plan I had went to 30 bucks. I was still under contract at 20.

The 60 dollar plan is, I believe, a plan that allows unlimited data to the laptop through the dial-up modem feature of the phone. I wasn't using the dial up modem feature. I was using a program called Internet Sharing.

When I still use Internet Sharing, rarely, it is purely for convenience of using the laptop. I can do with the phone almost anything I can do with the laptop.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] joel2009:
Thats a media net package

you get the media net internet and text

everyone is just talking about internet plans

30 is the plan you are supposed to be on,

15 some people can get but aren't supposed to have,

60 is a tethering plan
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] edbutler:
I have the same plan and have so for 7 years but , 3 years ago I was told when I upgraded my Blue angle for the 8525 they told me the I had to change to the new PDA plan. I said no thanks and transferred my plan to a regular phone on my account I had 3 at the time then got the 8525 with no plan and just switched Sims when the phone arrived and last year got the tilt and am still using that same plan but they think it is connected to a LG flip phone. I guess I get away with staying under the wire because I don't download anywhere near 5 gig's a month maybe just maybe I might have hit a 500 mb, But I have a T3 at work and a T1 at home so using a handheld to download that much is something I would never do.I have all the orignial software that i use on my phone backed up on my computer and the biggest file I ever download is Roms from XDA and I use the home computer for that. But I would like to comment about the Guy that warns of seeing large overage charges. AT&T is bound to their contract with you. They can cancel your contract but they would have to give you 30 days notice. But they cannot just charge you because they think you taking advantage of them. Unlimited means Unlimited and if it ever came before a judge he would side with you. Now if your downloading large files all company’s like Cable providers as well as cell companies are monitoring downloads looking for certain kinds of material Now they the Cellular company has a responsibility to you to give you what you paid for if they see an opportunity to get more they might try but you have rights and power as well. if you paying $75.00 to $100.00 bucks a month and they attempt to try and lead you into spending another 10 or 20 bucks and you don't agree they can cancel your contract but then you are relieved from any charges no early disconnect fees they can't get that if they end your contract. and then they lose your $1000.00 a year revenue. They are a revenue based company and do not want to lose that because that means not just 1 year but an average cell phone user might stay with a provider for 6 to 8 years that a lot cash to give up for a principal. That’s my 2 cents!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ChumleyEX:
You make this statement as if it has anything to do with this thread.

"In fact, AT&T just recently bragged about being "open" and allowing devices they don't carry."

Why would they take it away if you don't go over 2.5 to get flagged.

"If they take away my MediaMax, I'll go to T-Mobile out of principle. After 5 years of this plan, I've never used more than 100 megs a month. I'm not paying any more, period."

I really don't understand this post.. You say att can't do something unless they make it public? Is't is public knowledge that you're not supposed to tether with medinet??????? So what has been said that doesn't Jive with your knowledge of att?

"If you are using 15$ media net instead of the required 30$ pda personal WATCH OUT!!! once you use (and it does not matter the phone) 2.5gb a month a flag goes up. A specific department will now watch data transfers for 3 months after the flag goes up. If you use more than 5gb in a month, Well you are pretty much FUC*ED. If this happens 1 of 2 things can happen

"

I'm so very confused now.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] aadadams:
I picked up the media net plan within hours of it being made available. I originally had a Motorola V600 when I was placed on the plan. Since then, I have upgraded in corporate stores and online to the Moto. MPX220, i-mate K-JAM, Eten M500, 8125, HP 6500, Treo 650, 8525, Treo 750, and now the Tilt. (I think I got the order right and didn't omit any.) Soon, I plan to move to the Fuze. If I get any flack about my data use or device choice I will likely go to T-Mobile or Sprint for service. I would hate to do so, but I certainly would.

@KD8DNS,

If you get wind of any of this impacting those of us that have been on these MEdia Net plans since their inception, I would greatly appreciate a heads up. Thanks for the heads up.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] NotATreoFan:
When I pickup my Fuze, hopefully tomorrow night, I'm going to change my data plan to the PDA Personal + Tethering ($45/mo with corp discount) and test whether or not I see a nice speed boost using ISP.Cingular with my laptop. If I do, then it is worth the extra $15/mo, and if not, I'll go back to PDA Personal 1500.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] RizwanKhan:
thanks for the headsup man but i have the $30 plan and don't think have gone over 1 gig. i think this is att following comcast and putting unnecessary bandwidth usage limits.

oh well that is why we hate corporate america.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] bubblebuddyi:
So if you use the 30$ plan your safe? Just want to confirm.. because im constantly always using the internet on my Tilt.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] robosiris:
KD8DNS and others here,

I'm so glad I stumbled upon this thread and learn what changes AT$T have implemented regarding their data packages. I'm currently on the media max unlimited ($35/mo) and the most I do is surf the internet via Opera Mini. I doubt that I'll hit the 5GB/month mark, or even 2GB for that matter.

Never the less, thank you for the heads up.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] pyraxiate:
Please do and let us know. I know that when I would tether from my older 3g sony, the speeds and latencies were much worse. When I bought my hermes, they forced me to get a new plan in-store ( which i found out i probably could have had a lawsuit from the lies ). I immediately noticed a difference between isp.cingular and wap.cingular. It may have been a placebo though. Id love to hear if you notice a difference :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] nickmfnjackson:
... i might be in trouble

Are Internet sharing and tethering diffrent or on in the same? I have a 40 dollar mediamax package i purchased last year with a treo 680. Using simple logic I picked the plan, since the online store allowed me to buy it and it seemed to be the best value. I then purchased a tytn online for 3g capabilities since my area recently aquired it. I first used the modem ove bluetooth with the treo(which was pretty slow) but it worked. I figure this was an ability att kept quiet about in order to sell their over priced wireless cards. With the tytn, I discovered internet sharing over the 3g network with a connection speed of 10mbs. Now I read this post that says att is going to go back and charge for all the data (and it is alot) that I have downloaded?:eek::eek::eek:

really?

Hi everyone, I got a vivo y33s and wanted to ask if you can root it and if there are any custom roms
[General Questions and Answers] xXx yYy:
Every phone's Android can get rooted.

All you have to do is either to replace the pre-installed suite of Android shell commands ( AKA Toybox ) by a version what contains the su command or adding a suitable su binary to Android's filesystem, preferably to /data/local/tmp.

Whether a Custom ROM like LOS etc.pp. exists for this phone or not, IDK. GIYF ...

[Networking] X-Phile:
I have a problem. I bought USB WiFi (D-Link DWA-120) and created network between my pc (WinXP Pro SP3) and pda (O2 XDA Zinc). Settings are:

PC: IP=192.168.0.1 Mask=255.255.255.0 Gateway=192.168.0.1 WINS=192.168.0.1 DNS=192.168.0.1

Workgroup "MSHOME"

PDA: IP=192.168.0.2 Mask=255.255.255.0 Gateway=192.168.0.1 WINS=192.168.0.1 DNS=192.168.0.1 (Connects to "Work")

PDA and PC could ping each other and have defined IPs. Resco Explorer see my PC in network but cannot show me shared folders list. I tried to Map Drive for path "\\<my PC name or IP>\<shared folder name>" but got error: "Cannot map network path. Network resource cannot be found or you do not have a permission to access network...". Total Commander with LAN plugin gives Error 1222. BUT! The most interesting, that 2 other PDAs (Dell x51v and ETen M800) with THE SAME settings could map shared folders! Inet through WiFi works fine on my PDA, but shares not!

Any advices?

Be sure to tell it to connect to "Sprint PCS" and not "Phone as Modem" and you should be fine.

I would definitely keep your order running.

I had both versions of the S21 ultra.

Im not playing games, but use my phones a lot... And to be honest, i couldn't feel or see any difference.

I pre-order the S22 ultra to in the Exynos version without any concerns vs the SD version.

I have the Tab S7 to and never had any problems.

This is just my humble opinion 👌🏻
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] varcor:
Per Tom's Hardware:

Ice Universe says that the AMD RNDA2 GPU part of the Exynos SoC has a target clock speed of 1.9 GHz. However, in practice, due to thermal issues, it could only run at 1.29 GHz, in an acceptable manner. Various clocks between 1.29 GHz and 1.9 GHz were tested, goes the tale, but the lesser speed was the first with acceptable thermals. The actual temperatures are not revealed, instead we learn that all for speeds greater than 1.29 GHz, they are "hot".

Ice Universe has some further interesting info about what Samsung is trying now that it has hit that thermal throttling performance wall. According to Ice Universe's leak, Samsung is going to try and tweak things to get the GPU running acceptably at 1.49GHz "to restore some dignity".
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] sureshkumargs:
I've used both of them and based on my experience, Snapdragon is always better. It gives you stable performance and often supports bootloader unlocking.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] varcor:
"Snapdragon often supports bootloader unlocking" Not on S Series devices, much wider availability on Exynos variants. Only one Snapdragon variant offered bootloader access on the S21 Ultra, SM-G9980.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] sureshkumargs:
You would find More developers working on snap dragon than Exynos to bring custom ROMS. If you see devices such as Poco F1, OnePlus 8T and X3 Pro you would find almost every custom from working on them.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] varcor:
This is a S22 Ultra Forum, we're not discussing a bunch of cheap Chinese phones nor is the OP asking questions about them. What does your response have do with the unlocked bootloaders on S Series variants? Exynos devices have far more development and custom ROM's on S Series than Snapdragon. In reality development is declining with Samsung devices, Android 12 and OneUI 4 has made it far more challenging to implement custom platforms.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] varcor:
Since you've ordered a Exynos equipped device I assume you're in Europe or the UK, correct? So your Service Provider can only enable all their Call Features (5G, Carrier Aggregation and the rest) if you have a Exynos Chipset and their branded phone or possibly the unlocked device. How valuable are those features to you? For me it's a no brainer, I would only aquire the Snapdragon SoC no matter where I lived "if" I wanted the device, which I don't. The more that is made public, the less confidence I have in the S22 Ultra, particularly the Exynos version. Honestly, if someone gave one to me for free, I'd give it back.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] ‬1‬:
Thanks for the replies. I've found this on youtube and it shows that the performance of Exynos 2100 has been improved / optimised in time and caught up with SD so decided to keep Exynos version.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] varcor:
That's the S21 Exynos SoC. The S32 Ultra has a Exynos 2200 Chipset which has been totally redesigned.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] ‬1‬:
Yes I'm aware of it. I shared it as a reference of how Samsung support Exynos 2100 in time and improved it's performance. So Exynos 2200 might have a lower score against SD at the moment but it's performance will be improved in time too.

Hi guys, I would like to share our new Android app which is called "Calendar Import & Export" Our app offers calendar export and import functionalities, from Outlook,Gmail accounts and local device events as well.

I also offer backup & restore of any calendar events you exported, it supports the ICS format which is supported in Gmail and outlook as well.

You can try it here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=dekoa.apps.calendarimport

I would very appreciate reviews and suggestions, thanks!

Well yeah, it looks for all the calendar events, parse then into a ics file which is a standard format for all calendars , and it's the only app int the store that export outlook as well.
