Lol

I had the same issue with them - bl00dy numpties with their 'at order time only' number porting system!! Every other provider will allow you to port in after receiving the phone!

I ended up buying sim-free. The only decent contract deals involved 18mnths-2yrs with voda which given their numpty-ness over the porting issue I did not fancy!

Play.com have xperia's for £479, voda do a basic contract (75 mins/500texts) for £10/mnth and their not-unlimited 500MB/mnth internet for £7.50 on top of that.

Works out OK for me cause I don't talk on my phones!

There's been a huge thread on Voda's eForum about the 'Unlimited Internet' which is actually limited to 500MB/mnth - how ofcom have let them get away with this is anyone's guess - the use of the term 'unlimited' should be banned unless what is being offered is indeed unlimited.

[POCO M3 Pro / Redmi Note 10 / 10T 5G] EthernetTethering:
Recently upgraded my redmi note 10 5g (EU version) to miui13 and android 12 manually from the about screen.

I can use ethernet tethering but cannot charge.

If i charge i cannot use ethernet tethering. SO 1 option at a time.

My samsung s21 allows both. so I can charge phone while connected to ethernet with the same adapter below

The adapter i have is "StarTech.com USB C to Ethernet Adapter – 3 Port – with Power Delivery (USB PD) – Power Pass Through Charging – USB C Adapter (US1GC303APD) "

View attachment 5639185

Is there a setting in the phone to allow both charging and ethernet connection ?

Did you find a solution for this? I'm facing exactly the same issue with this adapter: https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B09MQDWP6H

Without simultaneous charging the ethernet tethering option is nearly useless for this phone.
[POCO M3 Pro / Redmi Note 10 / 10T 5G] EthernetTethering:
No solution

xiaomi phones with MIUI don't allow ethernet tethering with Power delivery. Maybe in the future they might add this.

I'm not sure about other xiaomi phones which allow custom ROMs like ArrowOS would have power delivery + ethernet tethering.

I'm not a fan of custom roms.

I'm sticking to my samsung S21 fe 5g and works perfect.

I think that Google doesn't want us to use our phone as a 10 Watt server.

One way would be using a wireless charger and an Ethernet adapter connected to the USB type C connector.

FYI for anyone who still cares, my Mi10 works perfectly with ethernet tethering adapter + charging.

The same adapter in my Poco M3 5g does not even work for tethering alone. Without adding any charger. If I plug it to charger, it only charges.
[POCO M3 Pro / Redmi Note 10 / 10T 5G] ramirogz:
If anyone still cares, I am facing the same Issue with a Motorola G82 5G which has amazing 5G capabilities but can't simply be charged while providing Tethered Ethernet.... I also have PIXEL 7 and its exactly the same!

Its extremely dumb to have such a great feature but limit its usability to a few hours. I want to connect my phone to a regular router and share 5G. It works freaking amazingly while battery lasts.

Any idea what could be happening? I'm tempted to try a friends Galaxy FE phone and report back.

It seems like the adapter has a directional flow : either data and power is coming INTO the phone , or the phone is Sending DATA back which impedes power coming in .... weird ...

Edit. Tried both a STARTECH adapter and a UGREEN (very popular on amazon)
[POCO M3 Pro / Redmi Note 10 / 10T 5G] Sanj3k:

That's a bummer i hoped i could get away with some sort of Y splitter cable because i want to feed the tethered internet into a USB port of a raspberry pi.

Do you have any experience in general with running a smartphone as a 5g router? Because I'd want to understand why everyone wants so much that high wattage pd? When i have a fully charged phone will it drain so fast even when it's charged with 10w 5v2a or doesn't it even get this power?

[POCO M3 Pro / Redmi Note 10 / 10T 5G] ramirogz:
Well I saw a couple of reviews suggesting this adapter : https://www.belkin.com/in/support-article/?articleNum=317131 which specifically mentions "allows for USB Power Delivery at the same time." It was on the expensive side of things but.... IT WORKS with my Pixel 7 ... but does not work with my Motorola mid-range 5G phone.

I'm out of words, this seems to be a combination of software, hardware or who knows, I am testing stability but at least I have a solution that works with my main phone.
[POCO M3 Pro / Redmi Note 10 / 10T 5G] Sanj3k:
@ramirogz Hi, I'm back. With the regular MIUI as well the currently running Project Elixir rom I have now tested everything I wanted and have mixed results. Yes you are correct when you just plug in a regular usb cable into the device you want to give usb tethering your internet connection it works and i get the charging symbol but it seems that the phone only asks for power on demand? Means I have installed the app "Ampere" and it showed me current from 40-100mA. Obviously better than draining the battery but charging up like that will take days. Interestingly enough when I have run a speedtest on the client pc which got the internet then ampere showed charging currents up to 1000mA means there is some energy saving stuff or so going on.

Now to the part with adapters: My initial plan was to split data for the device to get internet and charge the phone via a charger or powerbank and this seems to not work at all.

1. I have got two somewhat similar usb c male into the smartphone and usb c female for pd charging plus usb a female for data. Both showed something like 200mA as the charging current what maybe was the same issue i had with that on demand power being low when not a lot of traffic was needed.

2. An adapter which features several interfaces like usb a hdmi and rj45 (Lemorele like its mentioned in the thread you have linked) plus one power delivery port. Means I only connect RJ45 and power delivery. With the original MIUI rom I could only do either one thing when ethernet tethering wasnt running the adapter charged with a current of 700mA (same wallcharger cable straight into the phone has 3000mA charging current). And when I turned on ethernet tethering without a charging cable but then add it later it wouldnt charge at all.

3. I will test today later is a usb c to several usb c hub which has a a splitter built in means two ports are just data and just pd.
[POCO M3 Pro / Redmi Note 10 / 10T 5G] bosko1333:
If I am not mistaken the RN 10 5G uses QC 3.0 and not PD. I cannot find any QC 3.0 USB hubs which also have option for separate data transfer via the same charging USB cable.

Also I found some post on reddit where somebody confirmed that QC 3.0 takes over the data lines to use them for voltage negotiation, which means "No data while quick charging".

Warning. I just did quick research and also did not find any valid documentation so I might be all wrong, but for now I cannot find anything else.

Wait a minute it seems like RN 10 5G uses nothing lol on gsmarena it says USB Type-c 2.0 whichshould mean yes its type c but only usb 2.0 protocol is implemented. I also think I have read somewhere that we wont get Gigabit speeds through that tethering... And on one other paper QC3.0 and PD 3.0 both checkboxes arent checked lol

Edit: Unfortunately you cant filter on gsmarena for QC 4.0 and also one other page i usually use. I just dont get how the F people say use 5g phone as a router but no one stumbled upon this -.-
[POCO M3 Pro / Redmi Note 10 / 10T 5G] bosko1333:
I do not have a charger with me now, but I think this one is the original, included with the phone and look at the logo... It is QC 3+...
[POCO M3 Pro / Redmi Note 10 / 10T 5G] Sanj3k:
I have just seen in this spec sheet it had mi fast charge checked but not the other ones. Yeah you are right about the charger but I wouldnt say just because they ship a qc3 charger it means the phone supports it.

https://www.tchibo.de/newmedia/document/f89ec14cd83f84a8/technische-daten-xiaomi-mi-note-10-5g-128gb.pdf

Also as said usually i like gsmarena a lot and see for example poco f1 at battery says qc3

and with RN10 5g nothing

Thats why I have to think it doesnt anything at all implemented just some own implementation stuff. Most propably for QC I assume you'd have to run a snapdragon SOC or not?

Edit: Mi 8 pro even has QC4 listed just so unfortunate you cant filter it onalmost all sites. But this would be a killer since I assume phones with QC4 are way more expensive than 120€ lol

From what I am reading looks like some Samsung devices support ethernet and charging at the same time. I have a cheap Samsung Galaxy Tab A (8.4", 2020) SM-T307U with Android 11. (It can't go higher than this)

Attached the USB-C dock hub with HDMI, Audio, SD card and Ethernet and includes power delivery USB-C port on the back.

(I assume that port on the back by the display port could be both for power supply to the dock and for peripheral devices, I didn't test, anyways, it does work for power supply to dock.)

Azdome JF68 MAX Multi-Function USB Type-C Docking Station

The usb c hub is incompatible with the USB C Female to USB Male Adapter, the usb-c port and thunderbolt is required for the hub and laptop connection. [ULTRA HIGH SPEED DATA SYNCING] Two 3. One USB 2.

www.ebay.co.uk

Charging works and internet speed is 65/13 which is decent given this tablet hardware and it's only LTE, no 5G.

Also from what I read, most USB hubs with Ethernet allow bi-directional ethernet connection, so the internet connection could be either upstream or downstream of the hub.

From what I read, there is probably little difference between an USB-C to Ethernet adapter and a USB-C hub/dock with Ethernet. So if you come across a dock, that may also work.

I have another USB-C hub WITHOUT power supply.

https://www.amazon.ca/StarTech-com-3-Port-USB-C-Port-USB/dp/B07Z14J6VC

This one also works both ways for ethernet, works for ethernet tethering although the device is thought to be a hub to deliver ethernet into another device laptop etc. The side USB-C is only to connect devices, doesn't allow adding power supply to it.

The testing was done by attaching the other end of the ethernet cable into Macbook Air via another USB 2.0 ethernet adapter like this one.

Apple USB Ethernet Adapter

Apple USB Ethernet Adapter lets you use your USB 2.0 port on your Mac to connect to the Internet.

www.apple.com

It's an old adapter so the speed I get is 65/13, and it's pretty good considering it's LTE.

If I connect the Azdome USB-C ethernet hub directly to my router the speed lower than that but that is an older router so it doesn't delivery more than 40-50 mb downstream.

Considering I am tethering on my cell phone plan, I don't need any faster router as I can do any big downloads or streaming anyways.

For those ones who found your cell phone not providing the ethernet tethering, you can still connect your router to your cell phone via Wifi. Many routers can do that.

I believe even Apple Time Capsule had this when I was playing with it, it was able connect to another Wifi network instead wired ethernet and act as a router. So that may be an option to connect ethernet devices through router to your cell phone using Mobile hotspot (wifi tethering).

I had also issues with a Samsung S21FE. USB Hub and USB Tethering + PD does not work. If you plug in any USB hub with PD, it wont work, sometimes no charging, and USB tether instable or not working together with PD charging. Using a USB hub with integrated Ethernet + PD into the hub works though it seems reliable so far for me.

I go through numbers and carriers like they are disposable. Many because they are. But I do hate using new numbers. For some reason I find great pleasure in destroying electronic devices because all of my pleas for them to work as they should and they never do lol. Enough of my rant. Here is my question.

I want to switch the carrier device which is a Metro A12 Samsung that I have had for awhile. I stopped using the service shortly after I got it because my T-Mobile service was and is much cheaper. I can't unlock the A12 because I didn't use the Metro service long enough.

So I need to unlock my Metro A12 Samsung to use with my T-Mobile SIM with it. I think the easiest way around the problem is to change my IMEI #. Which I have. But have no idea of how to unlock it myself. Any ideas, apps, software, or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

As I stated Metro will not unlock the phone because I only used it for a month and kept it as a backup for my T-Mobile account. Even though T-Mobile owns Metro switching SIMS does not work. I know there are apps and websites out there that state they can change the IMEI number for a charge$. But I am sure if they can really do it, with a little help I can do it myself for free...

Thx for the time ⌛

I have a Bluetooth PAN set up successfully between my AT&T Tilt and HP Laptop with Bluetooth stack 5.1.0.3000. I am able to use Internet Sharing and connect to the internet from my laptop.

Everything works internet wise, however I need to change the DHCP settings on the Tilt. It is set to work in the 192.168.0.x range, but my corporate VPN has problems with this IP range. I need to change it to any other private range.

I searched quite a bit for this information but couldn't find it. Any tips?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] kilrah:
I remember that I had a similar problem in the past as wanted to connect my WM6 Hermes via BT to the laptop, then share that connection over the laptop's wifi. But internet sharing on Windows forces the destination adapter (Wifi in that case) to use 192.168.0.x, so I had to change that on the Hermes. If I remember well, all I did was go to Wifi settings->network adapters, selecting BT PAN Driver, and manually assign 192.168.2.1. It seemed the DHCP followed as I could connect the laptop fine without having to give it a fixed IP address. Not sure if that still works on WM6.1, but if it doesn't just use a fixed IP in that subnet on the laptop's BT NIC. I guess you don't use it everyday to connect to other BT networks anyway.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] kilrah:
I just tried on my WM6.1 Kaiser and it works the way it did. Just change the IP in the BT PAN interface, and the DHCP will follow.

I'm now posting this from my desktop PC that is connected through Ethernet to my wireless access point, which connects wirelessly to my laptop, which has its bluetooth PAN shared onto Wifi and connected to the Kaiser, which connects to EDGE. Phew.

So the path is EDGE->Kaiser(192.168.2.1)->laptop via BT(got 192.168.2.221 via DHCP)->AP via Wifi (192.168.0.1 via windows internet sharing)->desktop via Ethernet (got 192.168.0.233 via DHCP).
