I don't think they require it, just that they recommend using wifi. I have downloaded some games from gameloft myself and I had no problem using 3g.

Someone please have a legit answer to his question. I want to play Order and Chaos via 3/4G!!

Have you tried turning on wifi tether and see if it tricks the game to think you are on wifi and not 3g. just a dumb idea but it might work.

You could always go to a "shady" site and download the SD card data via PC. Or I suppose you could have a friend setup their phone as a wifi hotspot so that you could download that way.

These are all workarounds but...if one want's to play Order and Chaos via 3/4g
I have a phone and a tab and can tether my tab and play but ideally this would be nice to be able to accomplish with one device on it's own. Someone has to be clever enough to code a way to make apps think there is a valid connection, probably some iptables wizardry and place the wifi adapter into loopback mode if possible.

Are you talking about the market giving you a warning that the file may be too large to download over mobile data? If so, I got that message for World of Goo (~50mb; had wifi symbol in market) and I just pressed OK and it started downloading over 4G.

I have a fix for this. It just depends on what your trying to do with the wifi.

What you asked is impossible (to trick the phone and make it think its connected)
Create wifi access point with your phone and then connect there!
Thats what you want and what problaly dont working but use search...in Neo or Arc forum is 1thread and long discussion how and is it possible.
Cheers

Is that even possible? My phone disables wifi when making a hot spot also i'm sure since the wifi is being used to broadcast it can't be used to connect to any
Swyped from just about every ROM in the HD2 section
Are you talking about downloading from the market, cuz unless your carrier blocks it, I've never found anything on the market I can't download over mobile data (even if it gives me the warning dialog). If it's not in the market, I've downloaded files like 900 mb or more. Not sure what the problem is unless it's your carrier, in which case, whatever you do to trick your phone still won't trick the provider, I think.

buy a $15 wireless router. Tada.
I think he's talking about games from like gameloft and stuff, That require wifi only to download the extra game data. That's what I got from of his post at least. And to answer his question... I have no idea.

[Q] Internet Pass Through on LG Optimus 3D P920

Hi All,
The HTC phones have an option called the "Internet Pass through" where in the PC Internet connection can be used for the handset by connecting through the USB.
Is it a hardware or a software feature?
If it is software, then will it be possible to apply the feature for the P920?
Network speeds are pathetic where i live (tried all networks, 2G as well as 3G) if Internet Pass Through feature was available, I could easily have high speed internet access for my handset!
Hope someone takes this up and include them as an add on or in the ROM itself.
I am sure this will be helpful to many.

HI,
Simple point. I dont have wireless broadband at home and I dont want to get wireless broadband at home coz there is a cyber cafe below my house and that guy is always trying to hack into all wifi connections available.
also, the aircel / mtnl / Uninor/ videocon/ airtel /BPL /idea / vodafone -- all have flop internet speeds. I have unlimited 2 Mbps broadband connection at home.
LGO3D does not support Internet Pass Through inherently like HTC. hence the need for the above link. I am sure there may be many more who want to use this feature.
this works extremely well when I have to download new roms / 3D games / movies etc.
thanks.

Google Play on slow internet connection

Hello xda forums,
When I try to connect to google play it says "connection timed out". I think the cause of this is my slow internet connection. I bought 1 GB unlimited internet service from my provider and after I used the 1 gb with speed they cut my internet speed to 96 kbps (as I agreed to that). I was able connect just fine before I used the 1 gb. Anyways I think thats the reason. I tried to remove updates on both hoohle play app and service, still, none helped. I wont be able to connect to a strong wifi until sunday and it is really bad that I cant download any apps or in app purchases. Is there any way I can pass this? Is there any way for me to connect to google play with this connection? I can use the internet (obviously -.-) just fine, its just a little slow. Any ideas?
Thanks..

I've had the same issue on slow internet connections. I'm not sure you can do anything to make the connection faster than it is. Do you have a data plan, or is there a coffee shop with free internet somewhere near by? Those could be possible short term solutions.
Disable background data and ads.
Internet connection speed may increase. Use Firewalls.
If I were in the city I would solve it by going to a place with internet or my home internet but I'm in a country-side place so no internet cafe's or shops with internet is present.
And yes ia have a data plan, but my data plans speed is slow giving me 96 kbps speed (around 12 kilobytes/second) but I'm free to use it unlimited without any extra charges and background apps wont help it..

Glad you got it working, I was gonna say, at 96kb/s it should still work fine.
I have a similar plan that after 600MB it goes from max speed down to 128kb/s and it still works fine albeit slower.

Is there a way of making ALL games work with data

I'm fed up of games that only work when connected to wifi and was wondering if there is a way of making all games run on using Mobile data.
Sent from my C6833 using xda app-developers app
Put simcard with data into another device.
Run a portable hotspot.
Connect to that hotspot with your main device.
???
Profit.
Seriously, that's my low tech approach, no idea of anything more complicated.

There's no such way to make all game run on mobile data as it depends on game developer. If game didn't provide way and have to save data on local cache, then you have to follow it.
