Fool Amazon into thinking I'm on wifi? - Thunderbolt General

Is it possible to trick Amazon into thinking I'm on a wifi connection? I'm on CM7 and having trouble connecting to wifi so I can't download plants vs zombies.

That really annoyed me. I was at my parents at the time, they have horrible satellite internet. I had decent 3G coverage but noooo, had to spend half an hour downloading PvZ. I'm on CM7 RC 0.2 with the kang bang kernel and my wifi works now. (gps too)

Does 4G work on that kernel though

Wow that's good news! I was about to attend UC Riverside but decided not to (Going to Cal Poly Pomona which is literally on the border for LTE coverage). Now I will be able to get 4G when I visit friends there!

Yes I get 3g, hspa+ speeds with no issues. In Seattle I get average download speeds arnd 2MBps since att network is not great where I stay. But I have hit around 5Mbps in Chicago airport while traveling.
If you want there is a thread in sgs2 forums about people's experience on media net plans and their speeds. For me I didn't see any speed difference between the media net plan and the att 4g plan speeds. So i'm happily using the one which costs less and get unlimited data in the process

Just found this thread. It's helpful in my search.
FWIW, I USB tethered my Nokia 6700 Classic (which I didn't even know was capable of HSDPA until it launched). Signal used to be really good for it, but it started dropping like crazy. Thought it was the device, so I replaced it with another... same signal issues.
Anyway, I think I'm the reason why the signal is all crappy. In April, 2011, I did 800GB of data on my $20 Media Max unlimited data plan. AT&T never caught me. Until that month, I was doing between 10GB and 30GB each month.
Now, I'm looking for an affordable smartphone that is very much NON-AT&T so that I can continue to bend the rules and keep getting high speed internet.

Uckk4 modem

Can someone share the above modem. and if you have tested how is it?
I just posted it in dev forum

Just flashed it. So far data speeds have been the same as kk3 for me. Haven't tested wifi yet.

Speeds seem to be the same as KK3 but connectivity seems to have gotten better. I live in a 17 story concrete dorm surrounded by other 17 story concrete dorms surrounded by woods in Southern Illinois and I'm getting roughly 1 mb/s download speeds. I cant wait to get back to Chicago to really test this.
Actually my speeds are way faster....all around...4 to 7 down and 1 to 1.5 up....

Does 4g not work?
I'm showing 3g right now and normally get 4g in the area i'm in (i'm at work not home).
NVM it just showed the H symbol over 3g. I know it's Fake 4g, but normally here never drop to 3g on GB, seems to be more stable at 3 and rarely get H.

The way ics asop roms handle 3g over 4g is unless you NEED 4g it will default to 3g. Update a app or two and see what happens.

Ahh very cool. NOw i've read about the wifi signal issue which isn't an issue except for wifi calling. Guess it doesn't matter since it crashes but in the future if that takes off and works.
Flashed it last night. Everything is great except the wifi calling. Can't make and receive calls.

Love this. Only issue I have been having is wifi is slow even tried various modems from FB but each seems to have a downfall, lb6 made wifi fastest out of them all but then my service bars bounce up and down and lose signal inside buildings. Still figuring all this stuff out since this is my first flash. Thanks!

Sorry if this has been answered or I missed a thread...is the difference between this version and 20130227 is that wi-fi calling works on this ROM?
No. And wifi-calling still doesn't work on ICS... closest it got was accepting text messages, but the wifi app still crashed on calls.
Does this ROM support bln?

It's a kernel thing. Proton kernel doesn't do bln but hefe will. The downside I think is that the backlights will stay on while the screen is on. Although I think some people have both working with some combination of rom and kernel. Ultragen I think.
Ok thanks for the reply
