Hello I was hopping to get some help on the Roam Only mod. There are many roms that I wish to make my daily driver, but most of these roms do not provid the Roam only mod. This mod is very essensial to my daily needs because I live in the mountains where the reception is god awful. I'm not experienced at all enough to add this mod, and would like to know if there was a flashable way to add this? Or perhaps an app that allows this? I remember hearing about an app, but from what I read that app is no longer avalible.
Do a Google search for an app called Roam Control. Works like a dream, is still available, and costs about 5 bucks. I've been using it for a couple years now.

According to Roam Control's website, our phone is not supported. I haven't tried so I can't confirm. But you can get the app from their website. http://www.roamctrl.com

Won't do it with Grandfathered Unlimited Data plans... anyway, by looking at data usage they can see if you are tethering or not no matter what app you use to do it. LOL.
$15 for a feature that's suppose to be free no thanks, I may work for T-Mobile but I'm not paying extra for something thats is a froyo feature by default.

'Can see' and 'will see' are 2 different things my friend
as long as TMO makes a decent buck on the masses, we here in root land should be ok.

Some people are getting Text Messages from T-Mobile stating that they have "some how" picked up that they are tethering via the Google Code, and the native applications and are asking for $15 fee for doing it. there is a thread floating around here somewhere on it.

even though the native Application has a WEP code input option. the Wi-FiTether.apk has a MAC address white listing option along with encryption options so it will only allow certain devices to connect to yours. which i really like. I've been driving down the highway doing 65mph and had people try to connect to my wi-fi that i am letting my wife use for her netbook.
MAC filtering will not allow them to get to the web....
thats my reason for wanting it.
I just use the one built into my phone, they don't charge me and it works great...
Does anyone have the APK of the one that came with the phone? I'm not on stock rom and would like to try the original one
Well in all regards it's a good thing I searched on this subject before I posted anything. In any case does this app let you limit your bandwidth when using it as a wi-fi hotspot? or is there any app that will let me limit my speeds when using the wi-fi?

I've not seen an app that throttles bandwidth being used via the app.
I'm switching from the Nexus S and found out last night that the Nexus S lets you use the Gingerbread wireless tether for free (for now at least) because they didn't find a way to block it from working.
Is this the same thing on the EVO 3D?
I only saw the Sprint Hotspot in settings which doesn't work without subbing obviously. So I'm guessing they removed it or I am missing where it is.
The nexus s is a "pure Google" phone which means sprint didnt/wasn't aloud(?) change anything in the android OS. That's why wireless tether is still there for free in the nexus s. The EVO 3d however has alll of sprint's bloat etc., including a locked WiFi hotspot.

Has anybody tried calling sprint & actually complaining about this issue? They may give it to you and just waive the fee on your account... Might be worth a shot

I don't think it's something Sprint is gonna give you it for free. Hotspot has never been free, I wouldn't call in to complaint about it.

It will be free to root users soon enough. Let Sprint make a few bucks off the non-rooters.
Okay oh well no big deal just wondering. I'm actually waiting to get the EVO 3D right now. I barely used tethering on my droid but it was really nice to have when I needed it. I probably won't need it before its rooted anyways.

Once root is gained Wireless Tether is the way to go...and its free.

Try the "Pdanet" or "Pdanet Tablet" app to use through bluetooth. Works great for me using my Nook to tether to my 3vo.
Don't know this has been noticed or mentioned before but it looks Sprint may have forced Google's hand & had them remove all of the tethering apps. I just rooted a friend's Evo Shift for him & noticed none of the tether apps were on the Market. Then checked from my phone & got this:

I noticed them slowly doing this... Best thing to use is Market Enabler for root users, or download the apk from another site.
Trying to be as helpful as I can.
didn't get either of those messages when i looked for them.
either way, i back up all my apps for this very reason. you never know when one of them won't be available anymore.
i have about 4 different mp3 dl's on my 3d right now... none of which are available on the market anymore. lol

Hopefully it means we keep unlimited data on phones for another year or two.
Just did a search some popped up but get WiFi tether with yellow WiFi symbol it allows ps3 network to work I forget if its adhoc or other.
HTC EVO 3D rooted
So what?
All the ROMs you can install for the Evo 3D include either wifi tether and/or unlocked hotspot, anyways.

Yeah, right. hehe
I wonder if Sprint is hoping that root users buy their expensive tethering plan or stop using illegal tethering methods and free up some network traffic. I doubt either will happen.

tethering apps gone from Android Market?
Something is lost in the translation of that story, or it's totally made up.
Lookup "Wireless Tether for Root Users" on the Android Market. It's there
along with a few others. Frankly, I don't see much change from over a month ago. Pretty much the same variety of tethering apps as before.
Author's webpage for the app I mentioned is still on code dot google dot com.
Look up "android-wifi-tether" on that website for the specific page.
It's the one I downloaded over a month ago and it's still there today.
Works great.
Hmmm...have to check out that Hotspot hack. Sounds very interesting and possibly a cleaner way to achieve the same thing.
None of the tethering apps are still in the market for me. Nothing shows up when I search for them.

It states it has NFC, but will it be able to use Google wallet. I know Verizon doesn't want users to have or use Google wallet, however haven't seen anything addressing this. It it will be able to do Google wallet, this WILL be my next phone.

it been asked in a couple of threads, and currently you can download the google wallet app, but when you try to use it it pops up with an error about it not being supported your device or mobile network
I currently have the nexus, and mine says unsupported, but still works. I guess I will order the phone and see what I can do.

hopefully the wonderful devs can get it to work, since currently that pops up right after you try to launch the app. it doesnt even go into the app
No verizon does not support google wallet. Currently sprint is only one with google voice and wallet. I have the evo lte and yeah i do have wallet but the damn thing is a pain in the azz to deal with if you flash alot. You have to flash it seperately and wipe it clean after every flash and reset it up everytime. Everytime you flash a rom you will have to reset up card info name addy etc. I quit using it isnt worth the time or hassle.

I dunno though i get the same unsupported message with my evo on sprint being rooted. Not many places take it anyhow and it really doesnt save much time. Ive found that many places there end is messed up. This is definately something that is something that makes no difference to me if it has it or not. I have it and dont think ive used it in over a month.

Another EVOLTE user here, I believe that the need to wipe gWallet settings between flashes has been resolved and no longer needed FWIW....

But that alone means nothing. Wallet is still is not supported on Verizon and it is sounding like we'll need a modified version to side-load for Wallet to work.
Yeah, I tried to install it from the play store. It opens then tells me the device/network is not supported and quits. Such a shame. F'in Verizon...
