I got my view just the otherday, but soon realised that there is no sim-card slot on this baby.. looked it up, and yes... Sprint doesent have sims..
Is there anyway I can use this baby gal as a phone? Or at lease connect to 3g?
The last one is more interesting...
No, no way.
Damn...was hoping to get it to work...
Another question then...
How do I make it more international? It's too much tailored to US. I can't even change to Swedish keyboard or time?!

Thank you very much! Ya I also tried the NFL app it didnt work.
I had another thought, to install netflix you had to change some lines or programming to think it was an HTC phone. Maybe this would work if we changed it to think the TV app thinks the phone is a sprint phone? Optimus S maybe?

No, it identifies your phone and carrier through the towers, that's why you can't use it with wifi, it probably goes by your MLS number, Netflix just searched for phone model in the phone its self

You could probably download WiFi tether from google code and one of the preset profiles should work...which ROM are you on?

Or if you have tasker I've made a post detailing how to get native tethering to work.

You're in the fascinate forums by the way. If your problem relates to the incredible, you're probably better off in those forums.
I need to get the wifi working on my fascinate so I can tether the incredible it works fine on cyan 7.1

It's really hard to help you when you don't give much relevant info in your posts and don't express your thoughts clearly, but I think, after 5 posts, I have some idea what you're trying to do. You're gonna want to use the latest wifi tether app from here and switch your device profile to GSM Galaxy Nexus.
Try Open Garden tether app

Thank you knives out that did the trick......as to the relevance I thought it was clear
So here it is I've got 6 phones
OG Droid, Droid incredible, Droid incredible 2 (x2), and fascinate (x2) not wanting to pay for service on all 4.....they are used just over wifi......the incredible has TV out which I use in my car on the TV in my car to watch downloaded movies I just wanted the option to stream Netflix and watch that way so I needed the portable wifi......these ics roms are first I've used where devs haven't included the wifi app...thanks again
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
Yeah, sorry I just had to look at all you different posts to figure out what you were trying to do. Might just suggest to put all the relevant info in your first post in the future, it just helps to have that info when trying to assist you.
There is also a way to get the native tethering to work too, but involves some command line voodoo and I don't think it sticks after a reboot, so IMO the wireless tether app is probably the best option.
yeah it's working great but I have it set to cdma and it's working fine

Use your router to locate him, there should be singals of all devices connected to the router, so, you can easily locate SGP5

You can't use GPS to find it considering the accuracy probably spans the entirety of your home. You may be able to locate it with wireless information from your router. I'd hurry though in the case that your battery drains quickly with WiFi always on.
Worst case, you'll come across it while cleaning or just retrace your steps to when you last had it.
Well guys, I found it using using the Plan B app from Lookout Security. It connected to my Google account and found where the location was in my house. Any suggestions on how I can be prepared next time? Like a backup GPS?

you can get a communicator like skype, parlingo etc. and if you lost again, you will be able to locate SGP with one call/massage to SGP.
you cant use GPS, coz accuracy of GPS is nearly of 15m-10m,
you can use also a spectrum analyser or a wifi device with monitor mode on, but the first cost ~600$, the second is hard to do, those two need to have wifi turned on SGP.
A couple of options:
You could install skype, or some other app that lets you receive calls, messages, or whatever over wi-fi. Configure the app with an audible alert when a call is received, and then just call your player when you lose it.
Configure the email client to play an alert sound when a new email is received, and email yourself when you need to find your phone
Download google voice and get a free phone number you can text from your computer or phone. Couple it with groove ip app and you have a free wi fi phone service. I use it all the time.
OK, Thanks Guys!

I know it's bad form to resurrect old threads, but I noticed an app on Google Play apparently made for this exact situation. it's called "Wheres My Droid" (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.alienmanfc6.wheresmyandroid)
install app androidlost....it is not using any memory because its using google account and app after first time doesnt need to be even started as any process normal or background...and then go to www.androidlost.com ..log with your google id and you can do what ever comes to your mind with device remotely.I find my phone and tablet with that 10 times by now or scare my friend who use it because you can even play police siren remotey on device.And this free app is also awsome for spying your girlfriend if she has android phone..mine have no idea that i read all here messages and now who calls here and who she calls..but for now she is good girl
To have a 3g data connection and a wifi connection working simultaneously yet independently of each other?
I want to purchase an air stash wireless media server so I can carry more of my music around with me.
The problem is when this thing is linked to my phone I won't have a 3g connection(because it connects as a wifi network)
Any ideas?
Thanks.
Why do you specifically need 3G when there's wifi around?
There is a way. If I get off work early enough I will see if I can get it changed. Sent from my PG86100 using xda app-developers app
Well the airstash has a wifi transmitter to connect to the phone to transfer and stream files, so if I'm not around wifi but want to use that I have to sacrifice a data connection because 3g turns off when connected to wifi
Edit:
Wow thanks, that is incredibly generous.
I don't want to take up a ton of your time so if it isn't too complex I could probably do it if pointed in the right direction.

Why not just use Google music? I think it holds like 20,000 songs, its free, and works on any data connection
I've used Google music, I dedicated it to standout tracks but it has reached its end a while back and my phone is already refined to the point I don't want to move anything off it. I've been using box and dropbox, but my box account if full now too and dropbox is reaching that point in the next few weeks, so I figure the airstash and a 256gb sdxc card should last me a bit longer.
I know there seems like no reason to carry so much music around but once it leaves my phone and goes on my desktop hard drive it'll never be listened to again, essentially a music graveyard, so I try my best to delay the inevitable.
Sent from my PG86100 using xda premium
I know there has to be a way, and I think I've seen it before..
The phone is fully capable of running both Wifi and 3G/4G network at the same time, because when you're on WiFi and you send/receive a MMS, then it does upload/download via data.
I'll look into it for you.
Sweet, I've been searching all over the place trying to find out how but can't seem to find anything

It would work, but it would sure take you a while to get that working properly..
I would think that you could somehow tweak a file to allow them both since, as I said before, you can be on WiFi and download an MMS, which can go over 4G.
There's gotta be a way to trick android that it's downloading an MMS but it's really connecting you to 4G.
However, I have no idea how to do that, I'm not a developer.
I feel you would need some way of telling each individual application what connection to use in order for this to work right.

I think your right.
But the downside to that is when you actually go to really use a WiFi network, the app will continue to run on Data.
Hmmm, well if a governor or a toggle were implemented, to determine what apps use what connection under what circumstances, I'm thinking it might be a good route to take

That's actually a good idea.
But, I'm not a developer, and I don't think you are either. So it would take some time to get this working.
Since you're considering a toggle now, maybe try posting in the general Android Q&A section also? They might be able to help you.
Sorry.

If you're in high school, those programming classes won't involve anything android related, trust me.

Doesn't putting the phone in hotspot mode access Data and repeat it over Wifi? So isn't the answer to simply put the phone in hotspot mode? I know the phone can still access the data while in hotspot mode, so external devices should also be able to talk to the android device as well; over the wifi correct? Unless there is a build in firewall w/port blocking... but I would put my bets on file sharing ports being open.
Yep its possible very possible

Hello, so I have this idea for an app based around texting.
The basic jist of the app would allow a person with no signal or bars from there cellular service to use their wireless internet to send and recieve text messages. However, I want to do this where the user will be able to send and receive text messages using their own phone number. I would obviously have o run a service on a server to relay the text to the provider. I also, would like to allow non-rooted and non-jailbroken Iphone's to use the app.
If I were relate this app with another app I would say it would be similar to Apple's imessage. However, it will be used cross carrier.
Is this possible? What are the obstacles? Any suggestions?
Thank you
It won't work without a signal. Other than that, u shouldn't have a problem.
