Samsung EPIC 4G :: Press Hot Spot App Without Hot Spot Add On To Your Plan?

Sep 27, 2010

I see a Sprint Hotspot app on the Epic. What happens if you press it? Does it auto-activate the hotspot, or does it check to see if you have the add-on plan before it can be used?

HTC EVO 4G :: Hot Spot On Family Plan - Bill On Phone?

May 27, 2010

I pre ordered my Evo couple weeks ago, and the other night I was talking to my mom about it when I brought up Tethering feature and her eyes lit up. She currently uses a Tracfone (yea I know hahahaha) and is asking about getting added on to my plan, which i don't mind. My parents go camping alot and my mom is kind of addicted to Facebook (Farmville in general), so shes trying to look into mobile internet. I know there's a $29.99 fee for activating the hotspot everymonth, but I'm curious if that she activated it on her Evo, and I also did later in the month, does it bill per phone, or plan? Anyone have an idea what I'm talking about?

HTC Desire :: Wireless Hotspot Feature Works Without Data Plan

Oct 2, 2010

I purchased a HTC Desire a few days ago and I think it's great. However, there is one thing that bothers me. I've been quite slow at joining the smartphone community, primarily due to all the reports/stories of high phonebills relating to internet usage. So, having got my hands on the phone its self - I thought I'd play with it for a while and stick to using my home wifi connection for downloading apps and playing with map applications etc.

The phone came pre-installed with Android 2.2 and therefore has this wireless hotspot app built in. So, to see how it worked, I enabled the feature and connected to the phone from my laptop.

My first surprise was that it worked. My laptop was connected to the phone and web pages were loading up on it. Realising that my phone was already set up to connect to my wireless router for internet access though, I figured that it was probably sharing that connection with my laptop. Well, at least that's what I was hoping...

At this point I unplugged my home modem/router and tried again. Fully expecting my laptop to complain about the lack of internet connectivity, I was quite shocked to find that web pages were loading up on my laptop and there's now a '3G' logo (with flashing up/down arrows) showing on the top status bar of the phone.

From what I've said here, my only conclusion is that my phone is transferring data over the mobile phone network, but considering that I don't have a data plan, how can this be? If I disable the hotspot feature (with my home router switched off), my phone cannot access the internet, but if I enable the wireless hotspot feature of the phone and connect to it - my laptop can.

My SIM card is from Tchibo Germany (o2 network).

Samsung Captivate :: Unlocked Captivate / GPS Works / Need Data Plan?

Aug 27, 2010

I have an unlocked captivate. I have a German T-D1 pay-as-you-go sim that I've used many times in unlocked GPS phones. Now I have an AT&T captivate and wonder whether GPS or other apps will work. Does GPS require a data plan to work? If so I'll have to figure out whetted I can add this to my T-D1 plan. This will also answer my question about whether using the Captivate for navigation in the US needs a data plan to work.

Android :: Wi-Fi Hot Spot

Jul 8, 2010

I've been trying to read up on the Droid X's Wifi Hot Spot, but I can't find much about it other than little bits and pieces.From what it sounds like is that the Droid X will act as a wireless router for up to 5 devices. So I can fire it up, and my laptop can connect to it to get internet access on my laptop.I've read that up to 2GB/mo data will cost around $20/month through Verizon. Is this on top of the monthly data plan that I already pay for?I've also read that there are some phones you can root and once rooted, you can get unlimited wifi hot spot.I'm sure it will be awhile before the Droid X gets rooted, but until that happens, I'd like to know what my options are.

Samsung Epic 4G :: Can't Use Hot Spot?

Oct 16, 2010

I've had my epic for a few weeks now and today was the first time I've tried to use the hot spot feature.I'm not rooted (and thus am still running on the stock Samsung image).I can successfully get my laptop to connect to the phone, yet I cannot connect to the interwebs through the phone.I have 4G turned on, but it will not connect when I have the hot spot turned on.Obviously I'm doing something wrong?4G can be turned on and will connect fine, then I can turn on the hot spot and it will disconnect.This is without me even connecting my laptop yet.What gives? Has anyone else experienced this? Is it a known issue and I've just not come across the thread that blatantly explains this?

Android :: WiFi Hot Spot On 2.2?

Aug 31, 2010

if I read this correctly, with 2.2 Android OS we have capability to turn our phones into WiFi hotspot, but it come at cost from Verizon. I already pay $45 for corporate unlimited data usage, paying anything extra on top of that for the times when I use my phone as hot spot just seems ridicules.
Isn't there any apps or ways to avoid the extra gridy charge from Verizon for the WiFi hotspot usage?

HTC EVO 4G :: Soft Spot On Screen

Jul 2, 2010

I notice on my EVO that on certain parts of the screen it seems to dip and has " soft spots". It's likely to assume that all EVOS were made the same so I am wondering if anyone else has noticed this. When holding the phone in landscape mode, I feel a dipping sensation when sliding my thumb at around the top right and bottom corner of the phone, also towards the center of the screen. Or just sliding my finger around the screen or pressing/ typing. In general I can feel the soft spots.

HTC EVO 4G :: Overclocking Sweet Spot

Aug 29, 2010

In the world of overclocking faster isn't always better. Your CPU may be capable of a high overclock but may actually run faster at a lower overclock.

With the new Snap 8.1 kernel, I am able to run my EVO at 1.22 stable, however, after much benchmarking, I would say it seems to run a bit faster at 1.15. So at this point I would say 1.15 is the sweet spot for this CPU. Opinions?

Motorola Droid X :: Different Spot On The Screen

Oct 19, 2010

I bought a droid x, and about 5 days after, i got a red dot, about the size of a pin head (i am assuming a pixel or something) that was REALLY bright, and stayed present no matter what wallpaper i had up, or anything like that. so i exchanged it, and the same thing happened, just in a different spot on the screen and the dot was green, this one lasted almost two weeks, SO i went back in and exchanged it, and again, same issue, different location and the dot was blue. this dot was not right in the middle of the screen ever, but it was fairly close to it, and literally the size of a needle point, smaller than .7mm pencil lead, but it was REALLY bright and stood out over everything and i found it annoying and couldnt deal with it.

Motorola Droid X :: How Can I Control Who Uses My DX As Hot Spot?

Oct 15, 2010

As in, I rooted my Droid X and installed wireless tethering. I got my girlfriend to try to access the internet with her laptop via my Droid X's connection and she was able to do it.My question is, how can I dictate who is and who isn't allowed to use my connection. Say I'm tethering wirelessly and someone I don't know wants to use the connection as well. How can I disable them from doing so while still being capable myself?

APKs - How To Spot Fake Signatures

Nov 8, 2011

How do you know that an APK signature is not a fake?

What is to stop somebody unpacking an APK, inserting malicious code, repacking the APK, and signing it with a new key that simply copies all of the fields from the original publishers key (company name, locations, etc...)? Obviously it is not the same key, but all of the data the end user would see appears to be the same.

If the original key had to be signed by a trusted authority (as is the case with trusted ClickOnce applications for instance), you could have some certainty that this key was issued to the original company. Similarly, if publishers made their public keys available from a trusted outlet (e.g. google.com/android/keys) you could check that they were correct from the fingerprint.

It would appear that signing only gives you the illusion of security, which is actually worse than no security at all.

HTC EVO 4G :: White Screen Dead Touch Spot

Jul 24, 2010

I'm on EVO #2 now. #1 failed after what I believe to be an overheating issue when using outside for a couple hours. So today I'm at the Red Bull Flugtag taking pics and video. Its warm(HOT)...after a couple hours I notice that I now have a dead touch spot on my screen. If you were to divide the screen into 4 quadrants...the lower left quadrant is now 100% completely unresponsive to touch. Rebooted, took the battery out, did a hard reset like Sprint advised all to no avail. I'm now on the waiting list again at BB.

HTC Incredible :: Two Times In Same EXACT Spot - Reboot

Jul 4, 2010

I drove to a friends house last night to see the fireworks. We had to walk about a mile to get to our sitting spot. About half way there (where there was hardly any coverage) my phone reboot. On the way back about 1 1/2 hours later (in the exact same spot) my phone rebooted again. Wonder if/when this issue will be fixed?
