I heard about how starting nov 3 tmobile will begin to charge for tethering. My question is does this mean that we wont be able to use barnacle wifi any longer without paying for tethering? Or will it not be affected?

Won't be affected. It's only going to be charged if you use T-Mobile's tethering app.

Okay as many of you know Unlimited wifi is back, and I contacted Tmobile to enable it on my lines, but I'm not sure if it's working with my Vibrant as I'm currently running the latest version of Bionix, and I'm not sure it supports the unlimited wifi calling service. I guess I'm suppose to see an icon or something, but I don't. Any one else having this issue?
Get the wifi calling app. Then enable it. Then it will work. The rom you use supports it fully

When I turn that app on it says it's still using minutes. Supposedly this new feature doesn't use minutes.
Bump?

Unlimited Wifi Calling must be added as a feature to your account first. Then the app will not use minutes. Call customer care and have a rep add it, it's free.

It is an added feature. But how do I know its working?

I just tried wifi again,and it does work on wifi. I must not have had a good wifi signal when I tried it before. Still doesn't work with data only though.

You'd need a phone like the thunderbolt to talk and surf without wifi

Seriously? CDMA phones, like the Fascinate, are not equipped to do data and voice simultaneously. You'd have to get a 4G phone.
Until more CDMA phones get the proper hardware/software that allow you to use 2 radio connections simultaneously or until 4G covers everything and Verizon starts using voice over LTE, this feature will not be vastly available.

Alternatively, you could hope that more phones use SVDO modems for CDMA, but since SVDO has been around for a while, and only the Thunderbolt has it afaik, that is probably useless as well.
The game order and chaos wants a wifi connection to work. Is there a way to make the phone think the #bal is a wifi connection?

So I've been using my thunderbolt to tether to my flyer tablet. Speakeasy tells me I'm getting around 12mb download on the phone but only like .5mb download on the tablet. When I'm home on my wifi the tablet gets 22mb down so I don't think that's the problem. I also know its not Rom specific

Anybody? Flashed to cm 7 and the wifi hotspot built in gives me 5-8mb down. Could it be radio related?

It could have to do with the fact that your tethering your phone to a tablet. I don't know if that actually matters, but it's something to think about. Can you tether to a PC with good speeds?
Havnt tried but I will. I do know that when I switch to lte only speeds improve to about 4mb down and 5mb up. I'm gonna try my friends battery cover.

Is it possible to have the sprint hotspot with 4g. Cause right now certain devices can't connect to my wifi tether app. Help is much appreciated.
Sent from my PG86100 using xda premium
Nope. The hotspot hack only works with 3g. To use 4g you have to use a third party app.

Ohk thanks, I figured as much. No more 100+ GB a month.
