Mobile Hotspot blocking... - HTC Amaze 4G

I just got this message from T-Mobile:

Not sure if my Hotspot was meant to be blocked, but it's still working. I guess T-Mobile is slowly learning about those APN settings, or something.
Your take?

Yeah I called T-Mobile yesterday and was talking about the 5gb data with tether. They said that the engineers are working on blocking the loop holes that allow tether.

They are closing in on this loop hole, a lot of users have gotten theirs blocked and even with this it's still not working anymore.

You're probably not one of those that eat up a lot of data via tethering, from what I've been reading it's the ones that use tethering a lot for stuff like pc's, movies and gaming are the ones they started shutting down on.

Well exactly why you have no restrictions, these users are the ones with 2GB plans.

We have no data restrictions but we still have to pay for tethering.

Lucky you, lol.

Clockwork Tether. $5 and no root required.
Call and ask for preferred android. It's $20 but gives you 5GB.

Best Radio Version So Far?

Hey guys was reading in the radio thread and trying to figure out what radio is giving the best coverage and data at the moment?
Currently I am on 518 which is what the phone came with out of the box. Have seen some say that this is the better of all of them but have also seen people say to actually downgrade...
Let me know what your on and what your experiences have been.
Thanks will be given if you can help me out here!
It would depend on where you're using your phone, no?
I need something I have no reception at work or at home

that prl hack wouldn't be a good thing to use..as your data always is roaming via Verizon's towers which can get your account terminated for to much roaming, ill post a tut soon though hopefully once I get home..

You could try out each of these radios and see which one works best for you http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1193101
The 518 radio works great for me.

Can't complain about those speeds while in a half basement. Luckily I have not had any problems with dropped calls or any thing either.

If I had speeds like that, I'd pee my pants!
I average 400 to 600 kbps at my home in Colorado Springs. I've tried all 3 radios and it seems they are all about the same.

What error does it give you? Is it something to the effect of resetting data? **** happens to me on every phone! On release of 3D on stock Rom of course, I was able to get both Sprint Football and NASCAR to work after reprovisioning. I did make a TI backup of it once we got root! Restoring from TI is the only way I can get it to work, same exact thing on my OG also..crazy. Let me know if you need that backup!
Re-read your original post. Did you happen to change your Sprint banner to something else? I've seen that error in the past when I changed mine.
yup. sure did change the banner since before i was rooted. it was the first thing i did !! should i change it back see if it will take ?? never gave me that problem on the og evo

cuban..try this. Extract the zip and put the 3 files in you TitaniumBackup folder on sdcard and restore data only. This should allow you to keep your custom banner!
Yes we have to get the Verizon app again this year. That was perfect last year. I would have my tv on a game , my phone in a redzone and laptop for fantasy stats. These were perfect Sundays!

Going abroad for a few weeks, taking EVO LTE, any tips?

Visiting my family in Romania and taking my evo. I just need it for the wifi to check some emails, light web browsing, texting with google voice, and taking pictures/video. I find it more convenient than my older bulgy camera for pictures as I can just keep it in my pocket like I do everyday anyways. They use gsm not cdma, so I will be in airplane mode the whole time.
Anyone got any tips or neat apps I should get for the trip? Will GPS/geo-tagging work there? Thanks.
Use labs from Google maps and download the apps they work offline (airplane mode) and you will just use gps, I done it before and im doing next week since I'm going to cancun I download the map to make sure I don't get lost

Lol no, saw that on google reader heh, that's what got me thinking. But I can do the time conversion in my head without thinking, I won't be using data, and I don't need the third.
How do you use labs?
Does the GPS work when you're in airplane mode? I tested it on my dad's GSII a few weeks ago and it didn't for his phone.

I've used NDrive for navigation in Germany where I didn't (obviously) have a signal. The program is free and you buy the maps for fairly cheap.
But that was before there was Google Maps caching. I'll try that next time.

[Fun]Post your record uptime!

So I'm bored waiting for ICS, checked my uptime and I noticed it's pretty huge.
Slow updates or not, they made this thing really stable...

Most folks here break their phones and reflash a lot more often than that!
lol!
I make it a thing to power off and reboot atleast once every 2 weeks, so I won't ever have some ungodly large number like that.
But when I first got it I went about that long before I turned it off the first time.
Couldn't resist posting this for some odd reason.

That feeling you get when you have a 500+ uptime then do a reboot and the phone runs ridiculously fast. That feel
Yeah, I just checked mine... ~260 hours... rebooted.
No screenshot app, but I'm up to. 844 hours, waiting on ics to reboot. Trying to go as long as I can.

Hey am I the only computer nerd on here?
Why are you guys not hiding your phones mac addresses? Do you not know what cyber crime is and how easy it is to know where you are located by your mac I.D. I could spoof your macs and other info from your phone call in threats to people, and you would get the blame you guys have to hide that stuff!!! Just wanted to let you know! At least cheekrox knows!!!

lol. yeah. Its un-common sense . Please do hide ur IMEI/IMEI SV/MID/SID/MAC ID and whatever ID that may come up. I'm on GSM, so I know IMEI, dunno what CDMA ppl have.

PSA... friends don't let friends drive while looking for Sprint LTE

We're distracted enough out there on the road as it is...last thing we need are a few thousand Android geeks looking at their phones to see if they have LTE. Or worse yet, toggle settings while cruising to get that fleeting glimpse of a not-ready-for-primetime LTE signal.
Let's be careful out there ...
