Guys this might be a noon question but it's something that I need an answer for. If a tether another device, ie my Nexus 7, to my phone using the wifi hotspot feature, will my Verizon bill be affected. What I mean is, is there a way for Verizon to detect that my phone has been used as a hotspot and for them to charge me for it? Thanks everyone

No way whatsoever. If you abuse it (pull down 200Gb, running a server (ha!) etc.) they might get curious but I've been doing it for years without issue.

You have to be rooted to use any of the tether apps, otherwise it will keep telling you that you need the feature added to your plan.

Pretty much.
The WiFi tether that comes with most ROMs never works for me, so I use this:

It's an extra, paid service from Verizon. If it's not on your plan you can't use it until you add it and pay for it. Or you can root and use wifi tether.
Thanks guys....will consider rooting.

The message arrives with a download button. Pressing download only gives a downloading indicator, no pic. If it worked where would the pic be downloaded to? Gallery?

Can't say I've ever had that problem, my phone stays connected to Wi-Fi nearly 24/7 except for when driving or out eating as I have it connected to Wi-Fi at home and work. Never once have I had any issue with downloading pictures/videos sent via text while connected to Wi-Fi.

Mine automatically picks up mobile data and downloads and sends the picture when connected to WiFi. Have you messed with your APNs? Have you tried flashing a new modem/radio?

Thanks for that, I have a C6833 on preorder here in Australia and was wondering if I could switch off 3G as well as 4G. Oh well, battery life on this thing seems to be better than my Galaxy Nexus anyway and I rarely switch off 3G these days.
Of course you can go on GSM only. I have the 6833 and i can switch to GSM only.

Battery is pretty impressive using the stamina mode. I use mine a lot for forums, reading, chess, movies and music all day long, never turn off wifi or data, have 3 exchange accounts as well as 5 sync account which are polling regularly, I'm using it all day between 7am and 10pm and I get 35% or so spare at end of day. That's way way better than my old Note and this things driving about double the power.

I agree. With stamina mode this thing is great. Turning off data and wifi is always going to save a lot of juice. But having to turn on your device to check... not a problem.. Its such a beautiful device I want to pick it up all the time!

I've spotted some posts of members downloading 50GB upto 100GB / month on their unlimited plan. Where verizon expects the average user to use 2GB / month.
I average 30 GB.
I thought I would open a thread for Mega owners to share anything they want and get feedback, suggestions, solutions, and support from members here. Please feel free to discuss anything you want. Happy, sad, or stuff that just has you stumped!
@hopsin, I hope your dog comes thru!

I have also read that kingo root may not root 4.4.
I am completely stock minus the root.
Guys got some potential bad news the kit kat update could have changes some crap around on the bootloader Knox so I am going to finish my current thing I got going on for 4.2.2 and then after its done update to 4.4.2 stock and see if it'll work I'm really hoping so
