[Q] Enable Voice+data W/O WiFi or 4G - HTC EVO 3D

okay im very familiar with android, been runing and messing with it since beta on G1, but on our device is it possible to enable a persistant 3G connection while in a voice call, i know this process is done on all Verizon Android Devices via Build.Prop and other additional tweaks but can it be done on our devices? and can this be done independant of WiFi or WiMAX (Since it will be going the way of iDEN)

There is a method to get it working on stock, you just need to add a new APN
check the development section. there's a thread for it. I think the procedures is on top of page 4 (yes im lazy to link). But you would want to add the new apn after doing a factory reset.
quiksense, xboarder already including a working APN so it should work immediately
other roms, you should add the APN at the very beginning when flashing a new rom before turning on wifi tethering or calling.
people say it helps to delete the other APNs such as simple, tmobile us tmobile data... leave the tmobile mms of course.

Go back into the APN menu and select Tmobile Data one, then menu and delete.
This should keep the phone from switching back to that one.
Don't delete Tmobile MMS. Just the data.
Hope this helps.
Ok, so after all the ways to fo this, the easiest is clear out APN type and save. Don't worry about the circle for selection going away it's fine. I had 6 customer's come it since yesterday complaining about tethering not working, mytouch 4g, and sensation's and it seems there APN's have additional type's so i believe TMo is pushing new APN settings. Just my observation.

Sprint HotSpot with 4G possible?

So I rooted my sister's Epic 4G touch phone and then flashed this mod:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1394371
I was able to get 4G speed through the Sprint HotSpot on her phone.
I was curious to hear reasons why this would or wouldn't be possible on our EVO 3D's...
I'm not a developer, just an active forum member/flashaholic.
Thanks!
EDIT: I normally use WiFi Tether beta version 6. This post is regarding the stock hotspot app that can currently be modded to work on ONLY 3G.

In the OP of the link, they comment the original mod was done by Necrosan who I consider a good friend and I do recall when he was working on this.
It has been a few months, but I want to recall he was modifying changes in the framework to bypass their security checks.
In theory, sure this could be done on the EVO 3D. In actuality, somebody with great Java/Smali knowledge and the ability to reverse the apk files looking for the security checks would need to go through the EVO 3D.
For starters, HTC and Samsung are setup quite differently in their framwork files. HTC is generally a bit more *complex* due to Sense.
In theory, it would take somebody with the time and know how. In actuality, I haven't seen many people post up about this or request it.
I know Necrosan would enjoy the challenge but I can't recall if he has the EVO 3D device. Might be worthwhile posting a request or politely PM'n the devs to ask if they're able to undertake this project on the EVO 3D.
Hope that helps add a bit of clarity to the process!

+1 for Wifi Tether using 4G. You have to make sure that you check the enable routing fix in the settings in order to get it to work. I never checked the MSS clamping setting and never had any problems. Anyone know what MSS clamping is supposed to do? A quick google search shows that it is a hack that can break a lot of other things. Thoughts?

I've used the WiFi tether beta 6 app to get 4G. I even checked using speedtest.net on my laptop to make sure I actually got 4G speed.
In the OP, I was wondering if the stock Sprint Hotspot could be hacked (like on my sister's epic 4G touch)...it's just one less app to install.
I just like to keep my EVO 3D with the least amount of apps possible. More room to take pictures and video of my little boy.

this would defeat my doubt about https (secure sites) but why do you say avoid plain http? T-mobile being able to detect if you are tethering where secure sites would be protected and no one can tell what you are doing?

Okay to answer all your questions.
1. It can access all sites.
2. Yes tmo apparently detect unpaid tethering via the pc useragent on http sites but since they pry into https as it is a secure protocol, they can't detect those but I just used all the various protocols without any issues.
3. Yes it works via the wifi tether app from the play store, it does work via the default tether app on some devices but the newer devices they set it to check your data plan for hotspot, but the wifi tether app gets around that and works fine and no I didn't modify anything, I'm on the stock apn, etc.
Yes I do have the true unlimited plan as well.

Actually everyone is doing crazy downloading, the thing about the wifi tether third party app is that it shows your device as being the user of the data and not it being tethered the way the on board hot spot option would, that's why I opt for the third party app than just a fix, that way they can't block your tethering since it's your device showing up on the network and not a pc, imo.

[Q] Wifi hotspot without rooting??

So my buddy just got this phone and he's saying foxfi no longer works for him(from what I've read this seems to be accurate).
He's on an unlimited plan with Verizon and he's wanting me to root his phone tonight so he can get a hotspot app... Before I root it i wanted to make sure 1. That there isn't any hotspot apps that work with the DNA without rooting and 2. I wanted to make sure there are some hotspot apps that work after root. I've been researching and it sounds like most people are saying you're sol unless you go to a share every thing plan through Verizon.
Thanks for the info!
I want to know exactly the same thing. I need internet for my tablet. I'd rather not root, but I will if something works for sure after that.

I am not rooted. 100% stock. I have not unlocked this phone. I unlocked my first one and then it died several days later of a hardware failure and so I am waiting this time to make sure this new device is solid.
All I do is go to settings>more>Mobile Network Sharing>Turn on Mobile Hotspot. I setup the wifi there and then connect with my tablet.
Perhaps its because i am on the Share Everything Plan?

Tethering works perfectly for me on ARHD 10.2 (which is what I'm guessing you meant to type). Just go to settings, hit more,mobile network shareing, then go into portable wifi hotspot settings, name your hotspot and PW, then hit the checkbox. I had no problem.
Just curious, when you did your install with AROMA, did you hit AT&T, or international?

No.... Using the "phone" apn yes, at 5GB of usage I get throttled down to .047mbps down.
Then I just switch over to the wap.cingular APN and BAM pulling 6-10mbps down on H+/3G. No throttling here..
This thread is a bit confusing to me.
Are you guys saying AT&T charges extra for tethering?
ATT charges $$$ for a seperate data plan which lets you tether Internet, which is also limited to about 5gb or 3gb, not too sure. If you use tethering on a regular phone (stock rom with bloatware- fresh from the store), they would probably charge you for tethering because of the detection apk they put in there.
The way to bypass this is to use a custom rom, Internet tethering should work on it, maybe you could reflash/ reset the phone (all the settings and whatnot) maybe try a different rom?
Also, I diddnt know you could bypass ATT throttle, could you post all the complete APN settings to do that?
Cheers,
OK, please forgive me for being slow. You only save money if you're tethering from a phone with unlimited data plan, right? If you're on a limited plan, it doesn't matter and AT&T should not charge you extra, right?

If you go over the limit on a limited plan, they charge you extra $$$. I think it is $20 for 1 more GB.
If you are detected tethering on a stock ATT phone, they will probably charge you for tethering plan
If you are on unlimited data, you may lose it (plan) if you are detected tethering (stock phone),
if you go over limit 5GB for 4g LTE phone they will just throttle you.
Undetected tethering/ Custom ROM with removed att protection = only worry about going over the limit

Ask other people it doesn't change anything. It allows you to use native tethering to use a custom Rom but that's it doesn't change anything else

You can tether on the stock Rom too... It doesn't make your data issage look any different

I agree. The only thing Att or carriers look at is the amount of data being used periodically or the mac/ip address. Carriers have the ability to tell the difference from our phone using data or tethering, especially if data patterns changes.
