If you have a Sprint Galaxy Tab and would like to get the feel of making phone calls try this app from the Market "Line2" you will be able to grab a phone # from any area code in the us.
I came across another post talking about this great app, Posted By dfullerman.
There's already a post on this.
It looks like you work for them and are just trying to advertise here.
The UI sucks.

1. if u take a look, I mention that there is another post talking about this, I notice that one after I did mine and for the record I call on those that have a Sprint Tab like I do.
2. if I work for then, at least I have something to do, over 200 people came across this but only u have to come up with something negative.
3. if u dont like the UI maybe others do.

How would one go about cancelling the service after a month?......plus, do we need to register a credit card or something? My tab works off WiFi so I don't see how i'd be charged

There is no contract, if you want you can just go with the month program they would send you an email for your next payment, I did the $49.00 for the 6 months.
I'm using a pre-paid credit card
THanks for the prompt response.......so just install app, register and voila! Able to make phone calls?!?!?!

Videotron just released their 3G network in Quebec and it appears as if they'll have an Illico app that goes with their smartphones.
If anyone gets the N1 from them, PLEASE rip the app.

are you sure videotron are offering the N1?
Or did you mean if anyone is going to use their N1 on Videotron's network?

That also depends on how many services you have with them. It's that price if you have all 3 services, $42.50 if you have 2 services and so on.

I doubt they will allow access from outside their own network to use it.
If you need to access to your ilico or any other source on your system use a slingbox.
you can get one for under 300$ and listen to any tv show on the road (if you have a good data plan) their app is great as well! and no monthly fee..
P.s. if you check future shop they are way too expensive...

My Asus transformer was stolen today. Is there any app or way I can track it?
thanks
Todd
not unless you're really lucky.
i'm not sure, but if you get yourself another android device, active latitude to display your location, i wonder if it would cause latitude on your tab (if you even have it) to start displaying it's location.
of course, this wholy depends on your tab having google latitude (included with google maps?), have gps access, and the theif haven't done a factory reset.
I don't need a signature.

you can install apps to your devices straight from the market on a web browser, however, i think you still have a confirmation prompt ( not too sure)
no there is no confirmation, but the thief will ge prompted that certain program has been installed.
sorry to disappoint you but honestly I would say the hope is slim... a factory reset will wipe out all the trails..
Slim ...But there is hope. The thief may not even know how to turn it on. Or it may be missplaced somewhere unattended.

plan b sends out the first one without prompting, so it's worth a shot. You only need to text it if you are pinging it more than once.
So far nothing. Tried Plan B, but maybe the thief hasn't turned it on and hooked it up to wifi. I'm hoping they or the person they sell it to does before the juice runs out of it. The morons didn't take the power supply!

Hey gurus,
how does this work, do u install it to the transformer after its stolen from the market, and then it will send u a mail as soon as it sees (connects) to a Wi-Fi network?
Thanx for the help!

OK I'm starting this post for my buddy who has a sprint galaxy nexus we live in south Florida and spring took there towers off line today to do some service to there towers well when they put them back online they deactivated his service and when he called customer service he told them his phone was rooted and unlocked with a custom ROM and they told him that sprint probably seen that his phone was rooted and that is why they deactivated his device well he has it back on now and is getting no data what so ever

cant see that happening tbh, why would a phone network care about what you do to your device? Only the phone manufacturer would care about you invalidating your warranty if you were to book it in for repair.

Tell him to do a profile update. Settings -> About Phone -> Sprint updates -> Update Profile (if I remember correctly) and then Update PRL. Otherwise just call up Sprint and tell them he's not getting data and they should be able to refresh his profile from their end. Also, they can't do anything about you rooting your phone as it's yours. If he starts tethering like 50GB a month or something stupid like that, then yeah there's an issue. But I'm assume it's normal usage. Why he even bothered telling the lady his phone is rooted is beyond me...No offense, but that was pretty stupid.

Hey what's up guys? I'm the guy with the Sprint issues. It makes absolutely no sense to me at all why they would care about my device but the way she made it sound was that Sprint cannot restore my 3g data because my device was rooted. She told me that my best bet would be to flash back to stop and start over. She concluded with an offer to follow up with me after I flashed back to stock and she could rectify the data situation then. Call me crazy but I think I want the opinion of the guys who know what's going on and not the one of the chick reading off her computer screen. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

Several things I have to say:
1. Do not EVER EVER EVER tell your phone company that you rooted your device because the things that run through their mind are:
a) ****! Now he can tether without paying!
b) We're not fixing your phone now because you voided the warranty.
I hope she didn't put notes on your account for b) because that can prevent you from getting your phone repaired in a Sprint store.
Also, it depends what software is on your phone. Have you tried going back to stock? Have you tried calling Sprint again and not mentioning that your phone is rooted?

I asked her if there were going to be notes on my account mentioning it being rooted and she said yes but she said she was putting another note stating that the phone was being returned to stock. So I don't know. I'm learning and the main thing I'm learning is that the more I try to learn about this ****, the worse it's getting. The thing I hate the most is that this is a way to break away from the communist machine that is Sprint but somehow they still have me by the balls.

Technician notes are different from account notes, so if you were to go into a store for a repair I'm sure they wouldn't see that. Try reactivating your phone. Call Sprint, tell them:
"I called a while ago because I was having issues with data. A rep told me to punch in a code in the dialer and he also gave me the MSL code for my phone, but I can't find where I wrote it down. Do you mind telling me how to re-do the Handsfree Activation?"
Follow the instructions and see if that works. If nothing comes up on the dialer when you punch in the code, your ROM doesn't have Handsfree-Activation included. Try going to a stock ROM or ROM that has the Sprint menus in it.

I'm gonna have to jump on this first thing in the morning. Thanks for the advice. I will post any results on this thread as they unfold.
I would go as far to say it would be illegal for the phone company to cut you off for tethering a device that you own. (There are apps such as FoxFi that bypass the 'tethering tax' mobile networks try to claim) However, as someone said previously if you are downloading heavily then I guess they could cut you off for that.
At T-Mobile, NO such policy of cutting you off exists and they rely solely on throttling and packet shaping.

Thing is, he barely knows what he's doing. He's rooted and ROM'd but that's it. He's new to this whole thing. I don't even think he was tethering; I was just using it as an example for why a phone company wouldn't want you rooting their devices. But yeah I agree, you can't get cut off for modifying your device like that unless it was doing something that it logically should not be able to do (like if you were using it as a 24/7 server to host a website or something crazy).

I went into my verizon store and they said they wouldnt do anything. It was a young guy and maybe he didnt care or maybe because its hawaii and everyone is laid back... Anyways, I want to be able to return this phone to its owner. I tried putting in random passwords for the lock screen and i got up to attempt 55 and its not asking for an email; though i dont know if it would show their email.

Carrier is not useful at all! i once ended up buying A AT&T Iphone and it was around the time they started Black Listing IMEI, Anyways long story short..the guy who sold it to me had stolen it! So went to the Store to try to see if they will call the owner and give it back. They told me if id try to do that i could possibly end up in trouble and just toss the device in the garbage or keep it as a Ipod.

That would still keep the lock if all you did was wipe the caches. I had an idea of maybe using a no wipe stock image to Odin flash but wouldn't the same thing happen with the lock screen? Either way, I think runs the risk of it bootlooping and there would be less chance of getting through and calling someone. If it's rooted, maybe there is a nandroid you could restore and maybe they didn't set the lockscreen up?

Hey guys, I'm trying to test out some software a friend stumbled upon that can unlock the Sprint Note 5. I've already unlocked my Sprint Note 5, which I am using with T-Mobile. I'm trying to see if it can work the unlock over a remote connection before buying myself, as it is very expensive software that also requires a physical dongle to work.
YOU MUST HAVE A DECENT STEADY INTERNET CONNECT AND USING WINDOWS PC!
You must be rooted! ( I have not tried this on a non rooted Note 5 and do not know if it will work. With that said if you're unrooted and one of the few I have time to try this remote unlock with, you proceed at your own risk!)
Please Nandroid or backup your data by whatever means you may use!
Although this will not root your phone or flash anything to your Note 5, you do this at your own risk!
If the remote unlock is unsuccessful, remember this didn't cost you a thing, and if it worked please post to this thread!
I am using a friends licensed software and hardware that he has been kind to let me try, please understand that I cannot do this for everyone that responds and my time is limited! With that said you will get a PM from me instructing you to download the 7zip file below for setup. At the moment, I have time for 5 to 6 quick unlocks! Don't get mad if you're not picked, as it will be random! Don't PM me regarding this thread, unless I PM'ed you in response to your thread reply. Thank you!
ENABLE USB DEBUGGING:
1. To enable "USB DEBUGGING", go to settings, then "About Phone", then tap "Build Number" 7 times.
2. Enable "USB debugging" and "OEM Unlock" in "Settings", "Developer options".
3. Connect the phone to PC with USB cable, install drivers if needed.
Download UnlockTools.7zip :
UnlockTools2.7z

Still trying to get Sprint version to unlock. My friend has expensive box and I'm thinking of getting one, but first he's letting me play around with it here and there. Still testing bro. PM me if you would like to try. Got mines to unlock, trying to replicate remotely now.
Interested!

You should've kept it! Little something for your thoughts. Instead of donating those, you should save them, you would be surprised what hardware and software a few hundred of them could buy! T Mobile working real good here on Memorial Day, oh yeah, that is a N920p! Just to fill you in, $#!+ def legit. Funny ass!

And in all honesty, Junior, you should not have waste your first post bro! Or should I say Troll! Look I'm just trying to replicate what I did for mines using remote access. You think all the remote unlocks and sim unlocks you seeing on ebay and on websites are fake? Trust me, they are not, but it is expensive hardware and software that does that. What I do is completely safe. If you don't like what you see, leave. Simple, but evidently you are a troll and your profile proves it. You ask no questions, subscribe to nothing.

I apologize. I misunderstood your gesture and apologize for my nasty reply. I work alot selling these things ( cell phones of course), so hard to be on here and I keep missing xda messages. Today, I work 9:00 am to 6 pm EST, but will be availabe outside that. Pm again, if you got time before 9:00 am. Ill PM after 6, if not. Once again, apologizes because I shoulda been more professional even if you were being sarcastic, though I know now you weren't with any ill intent.
