This one has always worked for me - I'm using pre 12 but I'm sure pre 14 will work as well.

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.
Anyone have the apk for the non-verizon version?
I hate the one Verizon forces you to use. It says in the market "This item is not available on your carrier"

pretty sure that no one has been able to figure out how to crack the newer versions. And the old versions won't open, make you update. So I guess you are out of luck.
How dare verizon expect you to be a verizon customer to use something that they paid millions for the exclusive on...
There is no non Verizon version. The NFL mobile app is a Verizon exclusive and I even had to put my verizon online user name and password in to use it when I dl it on my rezound

This is incorrect as I had the NORMAL NFL app (don't think it was called NFL mobile just NFL) for my old incredible S in tmobile. As with the original poster I don't think we get that one. Maybe if you get the apk from somewhere else and try to install it may work.

nope, pretty sure the OP means the cracked verizon one to make it work on other carriers. They were able to do this last year, but verizon kept updating it, making the old ones update before they would work, and eventually people got tired of trying to crack it.

Not trying be difficult but the OP says non-verizon version, not a cracked one of the verizon version.
As I said this was/is available for non-verizon phones as I had in on my Incredible S using tmobile.

I just googled t mobile nfl app and got a bunch of links for cracked verizon apps that used to work. I could find nothing about any t mobile nfl app. Think you just had a cracked version of the verizon app. Verizon pays millions to have that exclusive with the nfl.

It wasn't a tmobile specific app, it was simply a NFL official app for all non-verizon customers. I'll see if I can take a photo of the app on a friends phone.
All the app did was show scores and allows you to follow along play by play similar to the espn app.

Hi does anyone know how to turn off City ID it gave me 10 day trial, but how can I opt out or turn it off.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
To be honest, this is the first time I've heard of it being on an AT&T phone. I read on the Wikipedia page for cityID, that verizon androids get a popup when the trial ends and you have to decline the service to disable it. No way to uninstall without rooting afaik.

I unistalled it and it still shows the City and State, though it hasnt been 10 days.

How'd you uninstall it? It wouldn't let me uninstall... says deviceDefault
It will popup a message after 14-day trial is over. Make sure you cliked No and it will no longer bother you.

AT&T GS2 does have it. Unless you used your friend's GS2 in first 14 days, how do you know it is not there?

yes, how do you UNINSTALL it? It's not even shown up in the Application List.
just keep an eye on your AT&T bill for charges...they will remove the $ and cancel the service but you gotta ask.
Root
Root & then install Titanium Backup & choose backup/restore & uninstall it there..
Root and use app quarantine.
Free app
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717
With Google Play, the feature to DETACH from Market no longer works. So even if the app is frozen, it is still shown in Google Play, especially if there is an update.
This applies to ALL bloatware. After a while, you'll see tons of these in your Google Play list and you no longer can select
"Update All".
If you ever want to get another 10-day trial go into Settings > Apps > Manage > Select All > CityID then Clear Data.
I remember this thread from when I had my Infuse 4G. Maybe this will help you ... It is a free version of City Caller ID...NOT the same as City ID but does the same thing free.

I can use Foxfi and leave it on all day while I connect my Nexus 10 to it. And I don't have to worry about battery at all. No way I could have done that with my DNA.

I bought the paid version and changed the name and password. Thats it. Seems to work great for me. I have connected up to 6 devices with no problem.

I wonder if Foxfi somehow provides better battery life over the stock hotspot app? Can anybody try a day on both and report back?
I would, but I don't have native tethering because I still have unlimited data.

Hope it works out for you. If not, download PDAnet and see if you can tether it that way. I think it'll work over Bluetooth when you use that and Foxfi together.

The free app "portable WiFi hotspot free" is another way to bypass the activation check for the VZ hotspot.

It is still working on my phone. Is it making the phone switch to airplane mode when you click roam only? Mine doesn't always work switching back to home only, or automatic mode, but it does switch to roaming for me every time. You may have to switch between a few different settings before it starts working or something. I got mine working when i posted this, by messing with settings, and it has worked since.
are you on RC 2.11.1? and did you buy it on the play store when it used to be on there? I got it on the play store a couple years ago, so it installs 2 other "versions" for checking my play account or something, so maybe there is something different in the app?
In the Log File, does it have any errors? Mine just says the following 3 lines...
74:RC 2.11.1
126:19.0.0.1598.7
211:RC Complete
When i was trying to get mine working, i selected each phone choice and had it force roaming, then selected home only, then automatic.
I believe i even tried the "other" option before i finally got it to work on the GS5 option.
Maybe i confused it enough to decide to just play nice with me lol. Let me know if i can try anything else on mine to see how it works.
Edit: by the way, I'm still on the factory image, just stump rooted.
Yep, 2.11.1, and yes I did originally buy it on the Play Store.
When I tap on Roam it doesn't do anything. If I choose notification, it puts the notification in the status bar, but when I use the "View network status" option in RC it still shows me connected to a Sprint tower. My log file is the same, except for the numbers in the middle row.
I'll play around with it some more and see if anything changes.

Maybe that is what let's mine force roam then. There is a program I found a while back that I used to push a PRL from my computer, it's in this thread somewhere, it lets you get msl also. But it unlocks something to let you push the prl.
