This guy is right.
And all ROMs are able to. Unless posted otherwise.

I was curious about this too. I'm on stock rooted with tweaks and was wondering if I could still do this with out Sprint knowing on the one that came with rom in settings.

I'm pretty sure the Nexus series of phones don't have carrier tethering apps which broadcast that they're tethering. If it is the version you find in your settings on the ROM, it should be counted normally on your data plan.

I've used my phone as a hot spot on sprint and so far it just shows up as using regular data like anything else.
Hand delivered, one step at a time.

Looks normal to me.
Delete that app and use Xtemelabs before you troubleshoot a problem that doesnt exist.

Whenever I do a speedtest (I use xtremelabs), my upload speed is constantly faster than my dl speed. My upload is constantly at around 2 mbps, but my upload is only at like ~1.5. I've done all the prop editing stuff, anyone have any ideas?

[ROM] RD-MIUI 2.1.6[EN] (quietly MIUI) 7/1/12

I take no credit for this! Just posting here in the Inspire section so more people can enjoy it.
I found this after some re-re posted it claiming it was ICS. It's not, it's 2.3.7 however... This is BY FAR the smoothest, most complete MIUI I've ever used.
I'm running with LordMod 8.2 BFS kernel and have had 0 issues.
I attached InspireMod so nothing's labeled Desire.

i'll have to try it out, thanks? (For re-posting?)
I guess I'm confused by the different flavors of MIUI.... RD-MIUI... the differences between them, etc... it's an awesome environment, no question... but I've played with a lot of different variations and haven't found that "sweet spot" yet..
People add and/or remove their own stuff, theme, etc. This one so far has been the smoothest aand fastest. No force close, no little quirks. I'm happy with it. I always found a reason to quit miui quick but haven't yet with this.

How can I install?
Im very doubt, what is te rom the zip labeled "lordmod" or "Inspiremod" and i dont know how install the patch?
Lordmod is the kernel with inspiremod being the patch for branding (vice dhd).

Install rom through cwm then install kernel same way. Then boot.

Best ROM to use on infuse

So I recently got my new replacement infuse which came with 2.3.6 already running. Are there any "must have" Roms or should the latest version of gingerbread be good?

I rooted and slightly modified stock 2.3.6 to my liking. Much of the time, I stick with that, for the sake of knowing that everything works properly. When I'm in a more heavily modded kinda mood, I'm usually using either CM7 or Paranoid Android.
Can we just please start IP banning people that don't freaking read the stickies?

Use the "search", Luke.
im still on AOKP as much as i like ICS, im contemplating switching back to GB, just because i love to record, and 720 recording is not yet fixed.
CM10 JB looks amazing though.

Why can't people use the search function before posting. There are so many threads on this subject. It's like your asking for people to make jokes. So my choice for best ROM is the all new jelly bean oNeClIcK_SeARcH. Flash this ROM and it will only display search widgets. Although this ROM many be tricky at first, eventually the user will understand the glory that is the search button. Sorry up late, but seriously when in doubt, search it first.

Droid Razr-Jelly Bean 4.1.1 Custom Rom by OSSx

Just finished basically porting and re-writing some coding from galaxy nexus' 4.1.1 ROM to my Razr, and rooted it. I have a screenshot before porting status bar from GN(

) and after, (cant post yet[taptalk wont allow]) The "about phone" section does have all the info of the Galaxy Nexus because I didn't know how to get it to be compatible any other way, plus the status bar went along with it. I haven't seen any other razr running 4.1.1 so i feel sort of accomplished
Edit: Will upload other pic(about) after xda will allow me to use taptalk host
Edit II: Feedback please?

Wifi tethering?

My last two phones have had CM with wifi tethering beautifully integrated. This will be my first nexus phone and I assume CM isn't a option yet.
My question is what is the best option to get wifi tethering up and running tomorrow when I receive my N5? thanks!

Thanks, any recommendations?

I'm sure a native tether hack will come out, just wait a week or two for someone to figure it out
If you're on sprint, none of those choices work.
Sorry I should be specific, I'm on T-Mobile

wifi tethering is built-in to stock android. check settings, wireless & networks/more, then tethering & portable hotspot.

Nice! I wasn't sure if those settings were added by CM when I flashed it on my other phones. Thanks for the confirmation!

Sorry for hijack.. But out of curiosity :
If you use the phone to tether.. Does it natively use wifi AC?
Would be cool for my laptop
