Cm7 tethering not working

Hey ppls I recently upgraded my phone to cm7 one of the rcs and tethering stopped working. When I tether I only oddly get Skype to work but not anything else. I had this same problem even with the Skype thing when the DNs server IP changed on my wifi and I could only use skype. Is this related to the dns change? Or do I just have to like download something.

I'm posting this while tethered. It's safe to say that the issue lies w/your device, although I'm not sure what that issue may be.

Connecting to iphone hotspot

So my cousin has unlimited data plan and he enables his wifi tethering but it doesn't pull up on the list when my phone is scanning so I load up my atrix and it shows up on that... Kinda messed up if you ask me.
Any ideas of how to fix that issue?

Not sure if it is the same issue but I had the same problem with the galaxy tab. I for found the fix in the galaxy tab forum here on xda. It involved replacing 1 file and worked great after that. Search for "ad hoc" on xda and you will find it.

Media Streaming

Anyone else having issues streaming youtube or google play sample tracks over wifi? 3g works fine, wifi connection says "lost connection to server". Works fine w the other phones using wifi in the house. Tried restoring back to my first post root save w the same effect. Any thoughts?

My youtube is touchy over 3G, might just be the connection but it'll play just fine unless I try to skip ahead.
Thanks KP.
I will try a different network today. Odd that the other androids in the house have no problem on the network. Thought it may have had something to do w the "officially unlocked" boot loader. But if no one else is having this problem it must be my network, or my phone. Maybe different protocols are used...?

For posterity sake, I narrowed this issue down to my network. Specifically the Airave 2.5 that sprint just sent me.

I believe it, pos... put it behind my router & all is well. Never did like the idea of having it between my router & modem anyway.

CoverMe Texting Application

Hello. I recently moved from the iOS platform onto the Android platform because I believe it provides a lot more freedom than Apple will ever allow. I used an app on my iPhone for a very long time called CoverMe, which is basically a texting/vault application that is encrypted and secure. The older I get, the less I trust those harvesting my data. I downloaded the app onto my new HTC One M8, but unfortunately it does not work. I open it and it immediately crashes, asking me if I want to report the crash to Google. It does work, however, when I am connected to WiFi. I emailed the developers about a month ago, but have received no solution. I'm not sure if anyone on these forums will be able to help, but it's worth a try. If attaching the logs/crash reports will help someone fix my issue, I can attach them.
Does anyone else have this problem with CoverMe, specifically on the HTC One M8? If you've come up with a solution, please let me know.
Thank you.

Just tried it and it crashed. You may want to email the app author.

I've emailed them on multiple occasions. A new update was just released today and I was hoping for a fix, but unfortunately it's still producing the same result. I'm going to attach the new logs in an email to them and hopefully that will help more.

I just launched the app in WiFi and it went through set up and everything. Try WiFi instead of using your cell connections.

I wrote about both of your suggestions in my first post, which you apparently did not care to read. I do not have WiFi at my house and therefore cannot use it on a consistent basis. Thank you for your comments.

If you want to get snippy, that's fine. But your original post only says it works on WiFi and never indicated you tried it on a cell connection. I was just telling you I got it to work.
Surely you visit a McDonald's that has free WiFi. Start the app there otherwise just deal without it. You don't have to be on WiFi all the time, just to connect to the app to accept the TOS.

I was not getting snippy. I thought it would be implied I tried it on my cell connection, as I wouldn't attempt to try it with no connection at all, and WiFi is the only other option. I used WiFi to accept the TOS and create my account a while ago, but it still crashes regardless when I open it and enter my password on my 4g connection.

I've been using the app you suggested for a little while now and it actually works pretty well. The only issue is that it unfortunately does not have an iPhone counterpart. That's okay, it will suffice until CoverMe comes out with a fix. Thank you for your suggestion.

Yeah! Try it only for installation and to set it up. Once installed properly, I think that will work fine after will cell connection.

(As I previously said) It still crashes while using my cell connection, even after I made my account.

LTE/Mobile data issue loading websites and apps

Seems that for some reason, I am unable to load certain websites, as well as my netflix and u-verse apps will not load videos or movies. This only happens when I am not on wifi(only on mobile data). I contacted sprint through chat and their solutions weren't really applicable to the problem. Any one else having similar issues or ideas?

I haven't tried Netflix but what websites do not work?
Dragoncityguide.net, as well as sprint.com are 2 I know of right off hand, xbox.com

This is happening in my area too middle Tennessee.
I was told by the corporate store they are working on the issue and it affects the new galaxys. Switching to cdma fixes the problem but speed sucks

Are you still having this issue? can you try again please?
Did anyone try this again? As I am not having any issues with my Note 5. Could be a temporary glitch, so please try again and let me know I'd like to help if I can. Thanks!
