Apparently due to some misinformation I've seen in a lot of threads people claiming that the max download reached error must be a Verizon conspiracy.
I'm just posting here to let you know that it's not because of a VZW ninja sense, it's not related to the user and will be addressed shortly I'm soon.
I just didn't want the rumors of Verizon causing an interwebzt or host related error to keep spreading.
I would love it if I'm internet famous enough to say that Verizon got traced the IP address of CharliesTheMan, worked backwards through proxy connections then got a court order to subpoena my ISP records and injunction to alter my host file or reroute my interwebz..
I'm sure there's some new users that are already wrapping their phones in tinfoil before heading out to wrap the house, but I think you'll find the issue lies elsewhere. I'm not in anyway related to moonshine I just couldn't let such rubbish take hold.
Oddly enough I figured it for a host issue, go figure. Verizon never crossed my mind.
Tapatalked from my HTC DNA - Carbon
really Verizon hacked the server ..rofl
Of course it's a server issues, the issue is for all Moonshine downloads. Looks like hosting had a limit on number of mb's/gb's being downloaded and that has been reached.
Not sure how people come up with ideas like Verizon hacked

If I ran Verizon I would
- lock down the bootloader on my best phone,
- fill the DNA's limited storage with unwanted bloatware,
- deny my oldest customers with unlimited data plans the ability to use their data via wireless tether,
- flood the Moonshine server with enough bogus downloads to keep customers from rooting their phones and thwarting my brilliant business plans.
Note: I'm not saying Verizon would do any of this; it's just what I would do if I ran Verizon...

That's an interesting point made. While certainly not apples to apples... the tethering hacks are 'stealing' from the carrier, just as warez 'steals' from the developers.

The tether hack is merely a t&c violation which is in a gray area. While there are those that abuse it, many folks using it actually use less data than those of us on tiered plans. There exists an argument that they are already paying for the data that they are using.
Conversely, what the op is looking for is theft of a paid subscription service, and is not a t&c violation. There is no gray area- it's a paid service for any and all who use itbeyond the trial.

This is a interesting line and a good point to bring up. As I understand where both parties are coming from. Tether is also a paid service so is this caller iD app. To me it falls under the same category... Fine line idk?

What's weird still is that I liked the trial enough to purchase it for $3/month. I get alot of calls and realized how nice it was to know what company was calling, etc, when they have multiple numbers that they dial out from. I installed a new ROM which was debloated and it didn't have the app; I tried searching for the apps name to download it again, just to have what I'm paying for but couldn't find it. Without the app, I still get full caller id info, just no options to add it to my contacts. I realized it must be getting turned on @ Verizon, since they are billing me for the services.
This leads me to believe the app is just for adding contacts etc, so I'm guessing that "IF SOMEONE WAS SEARCHING FOR A H**K", which violates xda rules, that its probably pointless. I decided its just another $3/month, which is worth it and cheaper then a landline caller ID service.
I'm a Nurse, not a hacker or developer ( which I know are completely different things ) so this is JUST MY EDUCATED GUESS

If anyone could upload the app for me, I would greatly appreciate it. I know I can just download a stock ROM, that's not debloated and grab it, but thats a 2 hour download of 1.2gigs, just for the app since I can't locate the same app anywhere I've looked; and yes I HAVE SEARCHED FOR IT.

If on unlimited data, paying for data only and tethering for free isn't an option from VZW. It's their policy whether we like it or not. I hate it but I pay for it.

I concur which is why I'm on a share everything plan. I tetheroccasionally anddon't usemore than8 GB a monthBergen all of our devices. Verizon is legally obligated to provide it to tiered customers at no extra charge, but still hits customers on the legacy unlimited plan with the fee.
That being said, is there a realistic difference between a customer who is on a tiered 4 GB plan who tethers and one who is on an unlimited plan who uses 3GB a month including occasionally tethering a tablet? Verizon's justificationto the FCC is that there exists the "potential" for unlimited customers to use a large amount of data.
As I've said, it amounts to a mere t&c violation for using their already paid for data in a manner that Verizon has said that is free only if they pay for less data.

There's actually a pretty strong legal argument that they can't charge extra for tethering to anyone, but that is off topic here.
Also, violating a contract is not illegal (i.e. criminal) or in my opinion, immoral. Theft of service is...and that is what we are talking about here.

Actually, since the topic of this thread is verboten, we may as well go with the tangent...
I suspect you're going in the direction of the Block C restriction. The FCC has expressly given Verizon the green light to charge unlimited customers for tethering in the consent decree that was issued last summer.

I disagree.....all you're doing is turning you're phone into a router to use the data that you're already receiving to the phone. A theft of service would apply that you are receiving additional data, which you are not....... you're pulling the same data to you're phone regardless its in tethering mode or not

You won't be able to reactivate the old one anyway...as soon as you make a claim, it puts the old device on the negative list for activation, so the IMEI will be disabled by Verizon.

Most insurance plans require a police report to be filed for the lost phone, so you'd have to falsify that as well. Doesn't like a good idea in general.

If someone tells you they can get a phone off of the stolen phone negative list, they either work for Asurion (and they're acting illegally), work for a VERY specific team at Verizon (and puttng their job in jeopardy to make $70), or flashing a different IMEI to the phone (which is illegal and causes other problems down the line). All phones on Verizon are indexed, meaning that the company has a record of each phone's serial number, and that's what's allowed on the network. If a phone is in the "negative" index list, it can't be activated unless it's moved on to the regular list, and the only people that can do that are Verizon employees on the indexing/inventory team, or Asurion reps who have to go through a pretty long process to have it re-indexed.
On a GSM network, none of this is a problem, because the only thing the network cares about is the SIM/ICC number.

I gave up on Google Wallet for my phones. I've installed ISIS on my Verizon Droid Maxx; and it's okay. Accepted everywhere Wallet was here in Los Angeles, which is to say not many places. Not as good as Wallet in terms of seeing your purchase receipts on the phone, and limited credit cards, but it uses Amex, which is all I ever use.
I'd be happy to install ISIS on my T-Mo HTC One, but of course, T-Mo is way behind Verizon in rolling it out nationally. My VZW Maxx came with an ISIS SIM, and you can order one on VZW website. T-Mo still makes you go to a T-Mo store in Austin or SLC. <sigh>
I'm going to file complaint with the FTC. The Verizon users are filing against VZW with the FCC, since part of their LTE spectrum deal was that they would not block users from installing any apps on their phones.
Winning. I was able to get an Advanced Tech support rep to admit they were wrong. She walked me through rooting my phone and voiding my warranty to freeze Carrier IQ. She then added insurance to my account free of charge and gave me a credit for $150 on my account to cover the insurance deductible if needed in the future. Attached is proof.
This has turned into a full on assault toward AT&T. Here is the link to file a complaint to the FCC. I have submitted my contract, the details page about the lg g2 from AT&T's website neither which states that carrier IQ or any other software is installed to monitor location or network data. Also attach was a chat log with an AT&T rep who admitted openly that it was not in my contract or listed anywhere that carrier IQ would be installed on our devices.I have also Filed a small claims complaint in with my local court which has a 500$ maximum claim amount. I am seeking the max with the reasoning that the only way to not be affected is to buy another phone.I expect AT&T to be a no show. Please unite and file an fcc complaint for concealing software capable of providing your location without consent.

LG. I must say since I picked up the g2 life has been great. I have but one issue with my phone and I am on my knees begging you for help. My troubles all began when I powered on my at&t branded device. I struggled with a very annoying wake lock that would randomly deplete my battery. I have traced the culprit which I have found to be carrier iq also known as ciq. I understand this spyware was installed at the request of my carrier so they can track usage data and trouble shoot network issues. I just feel lg should allow customers to have the ability to opt out or disable this software. Did you know that if I have network location set to off carrier iq will turn on my GPS to obtain my location. Now imagine this, you work in a secure facility with metal doors and no windows in the basement of a government entity. Your GPS turns on constantly without your control eating away at your battery trying to obtain a location. So I ask you only for this lg. Please work with the American carriers to give your customers the freedom to choose. Isn't it bad enough we have Obama and the NSA spying on us. Sincerly Christopher

Exactly. They installed it at ATT's behest. They don't install it by default. They installed it because it's part of ATT's custom package they load on top of the LG base.
Like all carriers they install their own custom bloat on top of the base, and that was part of ATT's. They're not going to pressure ATT to remove it because it's ATT's call. T-Mo chose to install it, but give a disable option. It's all controlled by the carriers installation package.
If anything it's ATT who needs to be pressured so the 4.4 build doesn't have it bloated in.

Sorry for the late reply
Per T-mobile:
Settings > Backup & Reset > Collect diagnostics.... then uncheck "allow diagnostics"
BetterBatteryStats recorded carrierIQ as a wakelock, but after doing the above method, that wakelock was no more.
One gripe I have w this phone is the CIQ. They should at least let us have the option to disable it.

We should rather ask for unlocked bootloader. CIQ can be easily disabled/removed
Does sprint use CIQ?

I don't believe they do , they discontinued using it after all the lawsuits started.
