Is there a way to stop it? I come into many problems one is downloading mms when I receive them!
Not that I'm aware of ..... why would you require both on at the same time? I see no need.
WiFi picks up your data connection once its activated. No need to have booth.

So you're saying having my laptop connected to wifi and plugged in via ethernet cable at the same time is pointless? Jk

Well wen I receive mms (I do often from the lady friends lol) I have to disable wifi to enable mobile data to retrieve it. One temp fix I found was to disable wifi calling/messaging.

I had the same problem in my house with my ATT U-verse wifi router when a couple friends came over with their iphone and laptops.
I think the U-Verse router has a maximum connexions.
Are you able to connect somewhere else? Have you checked the password for the encrypted WiFi connexion?
Using wifi for this reply. Definitely working.

Hi people,
Recently went to the market, and I tried downloading Green Power. It claimed to be able to work with 2.3.3
However, I don't see it toggling 3G automatically.
Has anyone managed to get it working?

If you are connected to a wireless network the app doesn't use your data connection. Try running the app with your wireless off or turn off your router. You'll see it working then.

Huh I thought the main objective of the app is to turn off the 3G when its not in use?
What's the point of turning off the wifi or router?

I use an app called "Network Switcher" which seems to work well on my Nexus S
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
Great app I think it helps me save battery I'm still
On 2.3.2 still waiting for 2.3.3
Just tried network switcher ... sometimes it doesn't return me 3G connection ..

I got this yesterday it does switch off the 3g so I think its been working. Although there were a few times when I switch RH screen on and off too quickly that it takes 10 seconds o so before 3g comes back
So far its been good using greenpower can update later

The reason I said to turn off wifi/router was so he could see if the app was turning on/off his 3g connection properly; that being his question

Alright its been a few days and I can safely say that green power is working out awesome for me
If I just leave the phone alone it last a lot longer I'd estimate it to using around 10-20% battery judging by the percentage reported by the phone

I has have boneskeeter Beta and shows a 3g network icon not the 4g network icon. Does that mean four g not work?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using XDA App
4g still works that was just a mistake by the dev, he forgot to implement the 4g icon

When on public wifi, you usually have to open a browser and agree to their terms before anything on wifi will work. Did you do that?
No never did. Not know about that
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using XDA App
Yeah it's super annoying as many times those pages are not compatible with mobile browsers. There's a number of times I've had to mess around with it for awhile to get internet to work. Depending on the browser I've used there are times the agreement page doesn't even show up.

Honestly, not even sure what you are asking. Why do you want to appear connected to a Wi-Fi connection if you are on anything but Wi-Fi? Am I understanding this correctly? Either you are on: 3G, 4G, Wi-Fi, etc. when connecting to data/network. Can you please elaborate more on what it is that you are wanting/asking?
I was trying to use video chat on the road and it told me i had to have wifi. I have 4g and i conveniently had my gfs phone to use as a hotspot but i was just wondering if she wasn't there i would have to stop somewhere with free wifi

True, video chat apps most likely will require a Wi-Fi connection in order to perform.
So i figure that there would b someone who knows a way to manipulate it

You can always try one of the many apps from the Market: Skype, Tango, ooVoo, Qik, etc... see if one of these works for what you are trying to do.
I used vtok that works without wifi thanks

I think what you mean is something like 3G un-restrictor like for iPhone.
Yes thats exactly what i ment

I don't think there is one, if there is, I am not aware of it.
Unlimited 4g. I'm sure you've all heard about it. I went and checked it out. Apparently the only catch is you can't hotspot. But since I'm rooted and running cm7 I should be able to still use hotspot with a third party app, right?
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA Premium App
Tethering is built into cm7, no need for an app.. and you might need to change the user agent on the device you tether so you don't get the tmobile redirect.
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda app-developers app
I am on the unlimited 4g, if I use Firefox, default settings, it seems to work fine. IE blows in the first place, but for the sake of mentioning it, and doesn't work, routes everything to a page telling me to buy tethering. I can also torrent just fine. I guess part of it is just the port it's set to listen on, 80, and if there is activity on other ports, so what.
Edit: also, SSL sites work.

I use the hotspot for my laptop and my lady's g2x. She is on the monthly 4g I'm not concerned with using my laptop, it's her g2x that worries me. I don't see how tmobile would catch on. But I wanted to run it by you guys before switching and potentially voiding my contract
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA Premium App
so what your saying here is that if i switch to the New Unlimited Nationwide 4g data package i wont be able to tether my tablet to my phone?
That's what they told me but (I may be wrong) if you are using a custom rom or just rooted with a thrid party hotspot app tmobile want be able to detect or stop you, right?

Nevermind catching a tmobile redirect on my laptop. Working on getting around it

I use Google Chrome & change the user agent. Give that a go.
How do you do that without an add-on
I figured it out. I sometimes forget Google answers all.
