Well, it kinda is. It was designed for US carriers mostly. If it doesn't change in 4.2 or whatever the fall release is, I'll probably hack it into AOKP.

3G Watch Dog is quite a good app, not sure if you can set a daily limit, don't thing many networks have them.

Phone usage can do daily i think

Cannot tether my I9305 UK

Is anyone having problems tethering their UK S3 lte. Tried a ton of apps and just can't do it. I've only installed CWM and rooted. Nothing else. Anyone have a solution?
Thanks

As soon as I turn it on it switches back off. Are you completely stock. No mods at all?

I have pre-rooted and deodexed rom found here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1935570) installed on my UK (bought from t-mobile) S3 LTE and tethering works a treat.
Ive got quite abit of different mods on mine practically like a new rom and tether also works great obviosly if we have that option then it should work and if it doesnt its either a software bug , network, or faulty phon. Or even the other device thats connecting to it.

Contact your service provider | by calling 150, and perhaps option 4 for technical support, as EE may have this option disabled for you by default, I have yet to check if mine works because i just ordered this as an upgrade (Everythings Unlimited!) for only £41 a month LOL
i am tethering right now and i am shocked as it is very fast even tho i am near the ocean and bushland./Lake but i am on 3G , as there is no 4g coverage out here yet. You would spin out if you knew where i was . Its 12am I am in front of a MASSIVE lake in a tent near the bush and just to see if i could, i hooked up my mini netbook up to my i9305 and all i can say is AWESOME i have now been on a stable connection for 1 hr. who needs a hardwire connection when you have a S3
Hehe i better get off now and get back to the nature haha. cya

There is a way around it i saw in i9300 a dev made a work around. I just cant remeber what thread it was inn or wat dev it was.i think it was his own work around he didnt advertise it because it was an offtopic thread was about something else and it lead into tethering . Do a search if ios has something we must aswel lol

[Q] Whats a good steady rom for the galaxy note?

Hey im just looking for a steady rom for the note that also supports the network mode settings that you can switch between 3g and 4g because the at&t stock rom doesnt support it if there is a good steady rom with the setting let me know thanks
Its not the ROM, its the modem that restricts band and mode switching. Any at&t modem has the restriction.
But I tried other modems and none of them worked or even showed that option and Max did say there is a rom that has the setting so there is a rom

Dial *#2263# to get the service menu. If your modem allows it ( no carrier restriction ) you can change the mode or band there, whether the ROM has the setting or not.
Again, its got nothing to do with the ROM -- its the modems that don't allow it.

Not to threadjack at all, but i was going to ask this same question, minus the switching between 3G and 4G. So rather than start a new thread please offer advice for a good stable rom with little lag experience. That is my sole interest, all other preferences i suppose i will have to find out on my own won't i! Thanks guys!
EDIT: i did decide to try the RootBox ROM for now. We'll see how that goes. Thanks for the tip shayne
I 2nd Blackstar X, used it for months without issue. I have been using the Collective as of late and it too is a great ROM but requires a little more hand holding.

Hey those who use BLACKSTAR X, how do you go about fast charging?
For me it takes 6 hours to fully charge using wall outlet.
But then I was on 4.2.2 I could get it charged in just 2 hours.

I think it might be the app, I did try that one and was having issues with it. Thats why i moved over to the other app, it just works alot better. The one down side is it cost 10 bucks but imo well worth it
Yah I looked on there website in the faq and it said if u are using cm there is a bug that is cms and it
Makes the app c:geo to not work right with Howard the caches from u so that makes it not very good for us
Sent from my ADR6300 using xda app-developers app
IMO, c:geo is the superior app except for the compass...it has never worked well for me on any ROM or phone. The official Geocaching app compass just works. It's just sad how much better the iOS version of the Geocaching app is. The iOS version from 2 years ago was better than the current Android version.
Doesn't really matter to me anymore though...I use a DeLorme handheld for geocaching now.
Thanks everyone I got a droid razr

You'll get nice gains with ROMs using dark modes available in settings or inverted gapps. I prefer the one click option in settings. May help narrow your search.

aaaaand again.
folks I have come to the conclusion that this CLASS OF PUNK is merely trolling. he has some simple issue for anybody else, yet it is pancreatic cancer to him. he has one of these issues almost every week, and I have responded every week. you will never get a response as to your suggestion helped or his issue being resolved.
from everything I gather, he is just making things as difficult as possible for himself. most of his issues could be resolved by him actually reading the Super Everything Thread. i dont think he wants to be helped.
I know this is a thread about helping people, not a thread about how many thanks you can get. but it is a courtesy to let people know that you issue was solved.
Dude i thanked the first guy who gave me a reply and alot of times when i don't respond is because i am working sorry for any convenience And as of now still i get little more battery juice the jellybamsandwich gave me around 3 hrs of battery juice so that's a plus sorry guys for not responding
