Hi, I'm new to Samsung Infuse 4G (AT&T). My phone has not been root yet.
1) Do I need to root my phone in order for me be able to download attachment sent to my email when viewing on Samsung Infuse 4G?
Current i'm in stock and i can't download attachment.
2) Can I tether between Samsung Infuse 4G and Wifi Xoom since I do not have tether plan?
For iPhone4 all i need was jailbreak and then use MyWii to tether b/t iphone and xoom. Can Samsung Infuse 4G do the same.
thanks.

1) Odd, shouldn't need root for attachments. However, I use GMail, and Android's GMail support and the non-GMail email app are different.
2) Yes, but you need to root and remove tethermanager.apk or install a non-stock ROM. Yes, that's right, REMOVING an app improves functionality, tethermanager.apk serves as a "big brother" app that disables Android's built-in tethering until it sees you have a tethering plan.
thanks. i was on yahoo email. let me send to my gmail. Also, if i'm rooted, can i use root explorer to uninstall apps i do not want, like TV, mediaHub etc?

If you have your yahoo mail routed to your email app, you should be able to download attachments to your sdcard. There should be a little disk drive beside the attachment that you can click to save. Let me know if that does not work on yahoo mail.

Yes but it depends how you go about it. 1.) Pay att a monthly tether fee or 2.)Root the phone and runn wifi tether

I just Googled "root backflip" and Google seems to think differently, though I've never had one so I can't speak first hand.
There are threads in the Development section and a video somewhere in this section that will show you how to get root on the Inspire.
If your g tablet is anything like my galaxy tab u either need to root using the hack kit and that will enable the HTC WiFi hotspot app or if u wanna use the WiFi tether app that Google made u need to set up your g tablet so it can recognize an ad hoc connection.

I really have no idea what I am talking about here, and I am looking to be educated on this.
Has anyone tried to install a SIM from the TB just to see what would happen? Would anything happen and if not, why?
Sent from my Xoom using XDA App
nothing would happen, there is no 4g modem in the xoom currently. A modem must be installed before 4g data can be used.
I too have a thunderbolt, and the internet on it is insane!
Root your thunderbolt, install wifi tether from the market, remove wifi-hotspot app, and give your xoom wifi via your thunderbolt.. works great!
I know that AT&T blocks customers from seeing certain apps in the market. I tried searching. Is there a list of these apps somewhere or does anyone the specific type? I know tethering apps are one area they want to keep us away from.
Dont know if this still works but it did ....... Turn your wifi off, put phone in airplane mode, then turn your wifi back on (leave phone in airplane mode so your not connected to the ATT network) and the ATT blocked apps will show up.
Try this it works for my x10 which is a fellow att phone

That actually works really well. Got to look at a few tethering apps.

Couldn't you just take you SIM card out? Using WIFI to connect to the market ofcourse
So based upon what I'm reading, the only apps being blocked by AT&T are tethering apps?
No there are a few others that are blocked. Some music apps, video apps and such.

I tried pushing Amazon App Store to my phone today, downloaded the file fine from the text from Amazon. Once I tried to load the file from my downloaded folder on my phone, I got the AT&T blocked from apps other than Market message...

I think AT&T is able to tell if you are tethering. Which is what they also did with Jailbroken iPhones. So be careful not to get the plan added on automatically if they find out.

What plan are you talking about... The $25 2g... There is a way around the the spying of ATT... Just flash a non inspire base Rom.. like any of the 2.3 roms will work

Seems like its much easier to activate airplane mode, than to remove the sim card.
Just be careful when tethering, even if you check usage you can still go over and not know it! AT&T can tell by data usage as well. I agree on the Non Inspire 2.3.3 ROMs

Under Settings>Applications, check the Unknown Sources box or whatever it has that mentions untrusted/unknown sources.

As for the unlimited data, no idea. There was a thread here about using an iPhone 2g but I'm not sure how valid it is.
OK i did this with the samsung captivate. I used titanium backup and uninstalled the TehterManager that AT&T puts on the phone to let them know if you paid for the service or not. It gave free wifi to my cousins phone.
Now I just bought the HTC Inspire 4G today and I rooted it and tried to delete the same TetherManager. I thought it was on all android devices but its not. So is there another way to disable the AT&T tether notice. I have downloaded the tethering app from the android wifi tether site, but i don't like it. I would have the built in wifi tether to work instead.
Thanks for any replies in advance.
Install a custom rom to use android built in tether app.
is there a rom that uses HTC sense.
I found a way. Follow the steps on this site. At the end restart your HTC Inspire 4G and your good to go.

If you're question is in regards to T-mobile US. Then the answer is yes it is free and you won't be changed.
Seems too good to be true because my internet is so fast. Are you sure?

Positive, as long as you have ANY sort of data plan. If you're on the pay per megebyte play your screwed if you use the net at all. I've been tethering with my phones for about 3 years now on t-mobile with plans that don't allow it.
Does anybody know about using the wifi tethering for Cincinnati Bell? With unlimited data do we get away with tethering without being noticed or charged?
where did you get the app to wifi tether? I am not seeing the sprint icon that would normally be there...do i have to get the rooted wifi tether app? Can't believe there is no voicemail icon either....weird.

You can access voicemail settings when inside the phone app, just bring up the menu-->settings-->voicemail
And the tethering is (from the homescreen) menu-->settings-->more-->tethering and portable hotspot

Thanks, found the wifi tether....any way to place a shortcut to that somehow? Still don't see a way to get the voicemails downloaded like the sprint voicemail used to do and then notify me when a new one came in...please help on this one.
Thanks

What do you mean voicemail downloaded and to notify you? Whenever I get a vm I receive a notification for it..
And with cm10 I don't think there is a shortcut or widget for the hotspot

Google voice will transcribe your voicemails for you , also you can use foxfi for tethering.
