Hello
I got a Rooted HTC Wildfire-S on Android 2.3.5 and I wanna know if there is a way to bypass bandwidth limitations (100mo) on mobile internet maybe by spoofing the MAC address of the 3G interface?
Dont think so lol.
I would imagine your data usage is tracked by your IMEI or SIM depending on carrier. Not something you can really bypass.

So here is my question,
How fake other 3G network proxy/ip. Can u tell me which app does that.
We all know how to change(fake) ip adresse on computers, but i dont know which app does that on android phones.
Ex im on Tele2(3g) and i want to fake T-Mobile (3g)
I dont think you can do that
Not sure exactly what you mean by "fake". Are you simply trying to change your phone's IP address, or are you trying to spoof?
And I'm having a difficult time imagining what you could be trying to achieve, at least legally?
I have to spoof 3g from tele2 to t-mobile...
Hello,
since the last FOTA update from HTC to 1.45.403 (Android 2.3.4) I can no longer connect WLAN devices to the internet via WiFi-Hotspot on my HTC Sensation!
Before that update it worked.
The devices (tried it out with a Samsung TV and the original WiFi-stick connected and a WD multimedia box, both worked flawlessly before) successfully find the Sensation's AP, successfully connect to it and also the DHCP test succeeds.
However no internet connection then works.
Did anyone of you experience the same?
Could it be that this FOTA update sent by HTC now requires some software token to be sent by your mobile operator enabling WiFi tethering, hence defaulting tethering via firmware to "disable"?
Mobile operators do not like tethering, but they cannot detect (and consequently block) it easily - unless (just my speculation, no idea if this is the reason, why it won't work anymore) HTC would change WiFi tethering and internet sharing via 3G to default off on software level.
I have to mention that I have an unbranded HTC Sensation without any operator-specific software and the update did not come from the operator but from HTC.
(Or at least that's what I saw.)
Any advice ?
Thanks in advance.
Correction:
Software version is: 1.45.401.3
Have you tried using different security settings for the WiFi hotspott? Go to settings\wireless & networks\Portable WiFi hotspot settings. You have three settings WEP 128, WAP (TKIP), and WPA2 (AES). Mine is set to WPA2 (AES).
Problem is that it does not even work with security settings switched off
I really feel lost.
Could it be that other apps interfere?
But I'd rather doubt.
If you are using the WiFi Hotspot app that came preinstalled on the sensation from tmobile and you dont have a "Tethering Data Plan" they will eventually figure you out and block the app from working.... I found this out myself and had to go ask the nice lady at the Tmobile store why it happened... and that's why.
I can verify that at a certain point of data usage tmous will cut off wifi tethering. They can tell the data is being shared n want u to pay monthly for the service. Found out from a Friend who is a tmo employee.
Although I'm still tethering free for the time being..

Mine does that too now, any way around it
I could be off on this, I work at TMO and I know the Amaze and GSII shipped with the ''latest'' SIM cards, which we were told had to be used for WiFi calling to work correctly, but oddly enough thats when I noticed tethering quit working on all out demo's
Works flawlessly with CM7 for me.
Actually today and yesterday works just fine for me.... so i dont know why it did the one day but no problems now..... wierd
my branded sensation stopped wifi tethering 2 days ago and i just tried and its is working now... Kinda weird i gurss . . Maybe it was because i used 5.46gb of data this month....?

My unrooted AT&T Skyrocket apparently won't allow access to port 3306 (MySQL standard port) via WiFi hotspot (an HTC phone on AT&T with my SIM card worked just fine, but the Samsung Note had the same problem).
Rather than purchase an HTC phone, I figured it would be cheaper to root the Skyrocket. Did so using Odin. But the blocking of port 3306 continues!
Anyone have a better idea than junking the Skyrocket and buying an HTC phone?
Thanks in advance!

Er... sorry, but forgot to mention which ROM I flashed: SKYICECREAM RC7 Speed
Try cynogenmod?

Yup. That doesn't work either. Just hangs. But works fine with an HTC phone. I tried calling Samsung for tech support, but they just read their script, which says: "We don't support hotspot. That's an AT&T issue." Uh, sure. So same AT&T, same SIM card, but HTC phone? Works fine. "Oh, then send your phone in for repairs." OK, how about the other three Samsung phones I tried at the AT&T store, all of which failed? "Oh, that's a hotspot issue. We don't support hotspot. That's an AT&T issue." And round and round we go.
I'm at a dead end here. I can't believe I am the only one who is trying to connect a computer to a mysql database via a Samsung hotspot.
Have you tried a vpn setup to your mysql server? More secure and it may get around the port blocking (provided you can get vpn tunnel setup)... Just a thought.

I've tried flashing a half dozen different ROMs (some of them are awesome!). None of them succeed in getting around the problem.
There must be something pretty low-level and close to the hardware that the ROMs don't replace. I'll be darned if I can figure out why a handset manufacturer would want to limit the tcp port selection.
Anyone out there who writes ROMs who might have any insights into whether this is a problem that can be worked around?
Hey Yall, long time XDA follower and user (HTC Shadow2007), first time "really" posting.
I, for the love of GOD, cannot find out just why I'm not able to use any of my rom's built in tethering for my T-Mobile branded Sensation 4G. I been reading up on T-Mobile US's hidden APN on their network which disable's certain traffics. (Yes I know about spoofing UA Strings for desktops/laptops but this seems to be different, like they are disabling my connection to the PS3 only. In other words, it will find the AP (not ad-hoc) and but not allow for an internet connection.
Lately, I've been switching between CM9 stable(main) and Elegancis (Blitz_3.0.0) roms. I haven't superCID'd but I didn't think that it would've mattered because I don't think that I'm using an non-T-Mobile US build (it wouldn't work either way).
I wanted to stick it CM9 but for whatever reason it would allow me to update some market apps so for that reason and well as the tethering issue I've switched to Blitz's rom.
My kernel version may actually be outdated (even thought I don't think so)

The first flashing that I did was Revolutionary HD 6.6.7 (i think). It worked fine but had problems as well (not perfect ). I want to change my data plan to the T-Mobile nationwide unlimited 4G plan and save me $35 buck a month to tether my PS3 to my phone. (I can do it now.) To test to see if the rom would allow me access to tethering to my PS3, I switched my wife's sim card and mine to simulate the plan and the phone without having the plan active on my account and it's a no go. I switch the sim cards back, it works just fine. Now she can tether via her phone and via mine (if sim cards are switched) to multiple computers and to the wii.
IF ANYONE HAS THE ABILITY TO HELP, PLEASE PLEASE DO! :crying:
Hello everyone,
As the title suggest I have questions/issues with T-Mobile throttling my hotspot. I have a Google Pixel 3 purchased from google store. However I have had to get a new device from insurance due to an issue with the C port. When i had my old phone i did not notice any throttling when using my hotspot. However I have had this new device and cant seem to get a good speed out of it. have tried to connect to a VPN on my phone to mask the data still no luck. I am thinking that it is using T-Mobile's version of the OS and they have add some kind of program to detect hotspot. I have some experience with ROMing and have thought about flashing the stock OS on it. However I am looking for other solutions and advice on how to fixs this.
