Is there a way to force the games to play over our lte network instead of WiFi ? Its stupid when I get better speeds on my lte than I do at home so why do theyale you connect to WiFi ? Is there anyway around this ?

Forgive me for suggesting the obvious answer, but you could always turn WiFi off while you are playing.
There might be an app that can automate and control the connectivity of other programs on your phone, but I haven't really heard of something like that. It is simple enough for people to simply toggle WiFi off and allow the phone to connect to data whenever the need arises.
Tasker can be set up to disable wifi when an app is run, and start it again once the app exits.

That would be on the games side, the developer would need to add that feature.

So I know first off you gotta ne on WiFi to talk on phone and use data. Me and my brother wanted to play Rainbow 6 and talk to each other. So i said let's call, then put or speaker phone or use Bluetooth headphones and launch the game and play online. When we try to launch the game while the call is in session it won't load up. Tried all my gameloft games, no luck. Anyone know how if possible to talk and play online? Maybe Skype, haven't tried it yet

I'm not sure if this would work but try using fring to make a phone call and use that instead. See if that works and let me know what happens.

That's good to know. Have you tried using the other video chat apps like tango or Skype?

Does any one knows if it is a way to play those games using only the phone's network.

The initial download NEEDS wifi, due to the size of the files (usually over 500mb). After that, you can use mobile network.

No I tried to play modern combat black Pegasus multiplayer, and it say that can play only on WiFi

Oh, I thought you meant play in general. I do believe most games require wifi (and maybe 4g, but I'm not sure) to play multiplayer. I can't say I blame them. Can you imagine the lag of people playing that style game over 3G?
Hey just wondered if there was a tweak to make apps think their on wifi? Im trying to use bbc player at work but i need to be connected to wifi and i don't have wifi at work. Im on three network with unlimited data and would love to find a tweak to let me use apps thinking their on wifi. I had this tweak on my iphone but can't find it for android.
Thanks

Pulsar g2 had once moded the application but I think it's no longer available.

Would still like the tweak if anyone knows of 1.

I was messing around with my buddy galaxy s3 and I noticed they can do this picture in picture kind of thing where they can minimize the video and still use other functions on their phone. I was wondering if anyone can implement this mod in their room or even make it available for the EVO.

? you mean minimize a playing video and have it still play in the background? or be recording a video and then minimize while recording to do something else? im not quite sure what you are trying to get at here haha think you can find an example somewhere?
Watching video and minimize it
Sent from the euphoric state of my mind
or maybe he means this? i can do this with my computer monitor but it requires 2 different sources for video. so i can have my computer video full screen (via a dvi connection) but then have lets say a xbox playing in a small corner at the top through a different cable such as hdmi. looks something like this

No I believe he is talking about the "Pop-up Play" feature that the GS III introduced that lets you play a video, minimize it to do other stuff like text and browse while the video is still playing in a smaller "picture-in-picture" window like seen here. luisrod03 was also correct. Here is another app that let's you do the same thing but it isn't free like luisrod03's link.
Yes the app let me do what I was trying to do... I wanted to view a video while texting and doing things on the phone... Also when u tap on it it will go back to full screen but I do like that super app though

Here's another option that sounds like it does what you're asking for.

Only catches are that it's $1.79 and I've never used it.

Ok I am sure all netflix users have found out that we have been had. There app will automatically update and no matter what I do I can't stop it. The new app is not very responsive and fails to load all the thumbnails. It's not as bad on the 3vo as it is on the og but still sucks. Plus I liked the old look better. So what I am wondering is if anyone knows how to stop it from upgrading?

Did you uncheck the auto update on the market? Mine never updates.
Yes I did. I still have the black splash and auto rotation but the main ui has changed.

Unfortunately there is no way to stop the update. I have a backup of netflix in titanium backup from about 4 months ago and as soon as I restore the app and data it loads the new interface. I thought netflix was slow before, I didnt think they could make it any worse. They might be trying to push people to upgrade their devices. The app works on the 3vo, but my wife has an evo 4g and it barely works now.
yeah i am in the same boat. i have the og and my ole lady has the 3vo. damn you netflix!!!!!!
The Netflix app's user interface is really just a web page. There is NO way whatsoever to get the old user interface back, because it is served directly from Netflix, as opposed to being a native Android user interface.
I agree that it blows. Why can't Netflix make a UI that lets us actually be able to browse ALL of the available titles? For instance, if I check the science fiction movies on the app, I apparently have a choice of about 20 movies or so to watch. Yet, you can search and find all kinds of additional titles. Why can't I just browse the damn library of titles?!?!
After a little bit digging.. Seems to be a server side updated rather than a full app update...

I very much agree. Netflix is quite un-user friendly. Half the time you have to know what you want to watch and search for it, and even then it's very hit and miss. I especially don't follow why Netflix has say... movies 2 and 3 in a series, but not the first one. DEFINITELY needs a massive UI update to allow entirely library browsing. not just whatever 75 titles they feel like showing at the current time.
I got fed up with Netflix, left August 1st.
Once Amazon gets a little better selection I'll head over there.
