Wifi Faker? - Android Apps and Games

Im looking for a WiFi faker. Anybody know of one?
Im on HSDPA so connection speed isn't an issue, however when I try to access certain sites such as iPlayer it says I need a WiFi connection.
Is there any program which will tell my phone I am on a WiFi connection, even though im not so I can watch iPlayer?

that would be great allso for games that require additional downloads to sdcard and only allow downloading through wifi D

Exactly what I'm trying to do ! (Amazon App Store policy for downloads bigger than 20 mb you need Wifi).
Any chance someone heard about such a thing ?

network switch

is there an app performing like this: when running a program like internet brower which needs mass data transmission, the 3g is automatically on. in other cases, 2g is on instead.
please advise, thanks.

[Q] BBC iPlayer

It has just been released to the market....but only plays back over Wifi.
Just wondering whether it would be possible to spoof the app into believing that the route was Wifi when it was actually 3G?
Cheers
If I could see it on the market it would be a start.
Running TastyGingerbread 2.0 on my Hero
Here's the link
https://market.android.com/details?id=bbc.iplayer.android
i cant install it on my cm7 powered g2. doesnt show up in market.
We need someone to post the original apk.
Or we also need someone to fool it into not caring what country it's in. Haha
A friend with a stock UK HTC Desire HD just installed it and sent me the link .. it doesn't show up for me.
If anyone can post the apk would be great full
Here you go...

It installs itself to /data/app/
I've tried it out, it works but the sound is out of sync for me.
Also is there any chance that the Iplayer app could be spoofed into thinking it was in the UK even though you are in the US

This.
Might we be able to remove it's check for location?
Or is it using the same check the website uses, and since we can't edit the website, we can't do this?
Thank GOD the BBC have finally done it!! Downloading now
Woah is it that bad? 2 and a half star rating!
APK if needed: http://db.tt/CgCD9fu
The WiFi check is done locally in the application - which is really just a fancy interface around a flash player.
If you know how to edit an APK, you need to edit bbc/iplayer/android/util/ConnectivityStatus.smali, changing line 126 from return v2 to return v4
v4 contains the wifi connection type value so the app will always think you're connected via wifi.
Hey Zibby,
Any chance you can post the mod'd apk?
doesnt work for me.. im in florida (usa) only works within the uk.. any fix for this?
so this doesnt work in the us?
Out currently doesn't work in the US but hopefully the smart folks at xda will figure a way around that

Will post it later today when i have some time - it appears the UK check is done "locally" too. I *think* it sends a request to the BBC and that returns if the IP is in the UK or not. Question is, do the BBC protect the streams or not? (Can anyone outside the UK access the streams?)
EDIT: It seems my modified iplayer app continues to download what you were watching if you just press the back button to "exit" out of the app and churns through the data - can someone check a non-modified version to see if it does it too?

Just had a look using droidstats, and it does appear that the app does the same over wifi. My wifi data usage pretty much stopped when I killed Iplayer.
Just wondered if any progress has been made with this?

I'm guessing iPlayer doesn't protect streams as my cousin, using a VPN, is able to stream iPlayer to the UAE. Hope this helps.

Well I would think the easiest way for you to download that data is to connect to WiFi. Either your own or maybe at like a Starbucks or McDonalds. It's usually pretty easy to find a hotspot.
Otherwise there is this old method that lets you download the data from a computer. I'm not sure if it works anymore though.

WiFi Direct

Do we have WiFi Direct feature added to our Atrix 2 ?
if Yes -> How can I get it on my Atrix?
if No - > Are our ThinkTanks are working on this ?
Its really a must have feature for sharing big files ( Movies )
Edit : for those who are looking for Wifi direct install SuperBeam from play.(works only on JB)
What's that? XD

Data sharing via WiFi just as we do through Bluetooth. (WiFi File Sharing etc. etc. terminology you may know this by)
There are many applications for the same on PLAY but they generate a code or BAR code BLAH BLAH for sharing and most of them are a headache to use !! Would be good if we have a direct option in our sharing menu
just select file -> tap on sharing -> select Wifi Direct -> search for devices in range -> Select and share kindda thing (similar to Bluetooth sharing)
P.S. : We have this feature in various Samsung and HTC cell phone
I see.. So is it fast to transfer big files?

Its Blazing Fast Friend !!
Have seen the speed reaching 14 MB/s while I was transfering a movie through a WiFi share app
unfortunately that Application worked only to recieve but was not able to send file moreover I was kindda annoyed with the BAR code Scan to share file

Thanks for the share. Will give it a try !
But this app too uses the BARCODE system and all I was looking for the simple inbuilt search feature like the one we have in bluetooth. All the menu options same as Bluetooth just the transfer mode should be via WiFi.
BTW have you gave a look to WiFi direct feature on any other cell namely some Samsung or HTC models ???
Could you please give a try to this and let me know ?? : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nz.intelx.send.lite
