l have the Sprint data plan which doesn't allow for the View to be a hot spot. Is there an app for this that I can use on a non rooted View?

Not that I know of a non-rooted view. What's wrong with rooting?

So not sure if this has been discussed previously but it would definitely help back up the need for improvement in the antenna or network. This app basically pings the cellphone towers for data and reports it, you can read more on the link below.

Could somebody post this question on the app home page, I don't wanna sign up for yet another site lol...
Will the fact that I'm using a US Cellular PRL on a Spring phone screw with the results?

nice app thanks bro
just so you guys know this app is collecting our IMEI and ESNs (unique device id) i just started a thread on their forum asking them why.
edit: they changed the app so they no longer store our IMEI or ESN and added some security to the app. i am impressed by their response and just installed the app.
I figure both to distinguish what device and what network

Good info.
Also, be prepared for your battery life to decrease. These apps/services have been around for a while, and most users complaints are that the apps constantly running in the background kills their battery because it doesn't allow the phone to sleep properly.
So is this app basically like Sensorly?

Well battery is debatable given you adjust the interval.

I used qpst to change my carrier banner and it screws it up that's what the app uses to find what carrier u are on

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.

I'm sure it has been brought up or asked. But we are a combined forum now. A bigger think tank. Anybody know what it would take to remove the carriers ability to throttle us?
Thoughts?
Comments?
Questions?

I believe there is no way, at least there wasn't on GS2 that I recall

When I look through root exporter I see a throttle file under data system throttle. Any ideas?

this has not been possible for the past few generations of Galaxy phones. The files are pushed from t-mobile servers now, so they can't be modded or deleted.
Get a good wifi linking app and utilize as much open wifi as you can and don't waist bandwidth uploading or downloading massive amounts of data when off of wifi when possible.
I've been looking for weeks now asked every forum I know and no one can seem to help me? All I want is to know how I can get the stock hotspot app to work on my Verizon gs3! Most likely using the sqlite editor app. Please help me out I'm losing hope!

What do you mean stock hotspot app? Doesnt verizon come with its own?
Yes but there is a way to remove the entitlement check so I can use it with out paying more dang money to Verizon

What's wrong with rooting (it's simple enough on SG3) and then using an app like Wifi tether?
Foxfi works well no root and it's free in the market

1) Rooting i not for everyone...
2) They may be like me and waiting for the bugs to be irons out. (Maybe its perfect but I am personally in no rush.)
I do think there are some apps on the play store that allow you to tether without the standard carrier one correct? I thought I was reading that some where...Again I could be wrong! (They may only work VIA USB though.)
get widgetoids from app store and create a hot spot shortcut. It will turn on the stock app without having to pay.

Is it possible to use WiFi to make a call on evo 4g lte? I was able to do this on my my touch 4g while I was using t mobile. Thanks in advance for anyone that can answer this
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
Different apps allow it through sip on evdo/4g/wifi, easy setup so far is google voice and I want to say $10 app that sets everything. The name was change awhile back and I don't remember what it is now
Edit: its called Groove IP and its now offered as lite and full for 4.99
Doesn't Google Voice do this?

When did this change? Last year when I was on business travel, I always would use Google voice when I didn't have service in my hotel room.
I just tried it, and it did not work on WiFi

Just more bullsh from HTC. First complaint I've ever made about this device. I'm Ann htc fan thru and thru. But that was really handy when I didn't have service.

Well, thanks for the heads up because I'm heading out on another business trip on Monday. I guess I will be downloading this app.
