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.

some games like gameloft require a wifi connection to download the data...the problem is I have a 7.2mgbs data plan conc so how can I use it instead of wifi...is there a way do fake my plan as a wifi connection?

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.
i currently use my phone as a hotspot to play xbox live, i may be getting a ps3, will it work as well? i am using the MIUI stock wireless tether currently. i use it for my laptop, asus transformer, wifes hp touchpad and the 360 already so i assume that the ps3 will not be a problem but just curious.
dont worry, no more than 1 device at a time on my phones tether..

As long as you set up the hotspot, your game consoles will connect (NDS, PS3, Xbox360, Computers, and PSP's), even other cellphones. It turns it into a wireless router for anything to connect too.
I WILL SAY THIS THO!!!! 3g connection SUCKS with hotspot if your gonna do online play. I played CoD with hotspot before i couldnt kill nothin due to lag. If you got 4g hotspot your golden.

Heh, good luck getting that on MIUI. No 4G support in China so no 4G support on MIUI.

true, MIUI does not have 4G, and did not know china didn't as well. but either way if he went to a different rom with 4g support and he could somehow get 4g somewhere he would be all set.
PS3 and hotspot
How did you guys manage to establish connection I have a rooted htc thunderbolt and would love to play online with it my bro uses his laptop and makes me lag so I had the idea of using the hotspot I use barnacle or open garden even easytether to my laptop then share with intel and I cant get connected help?

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.

Okay guys, I have a new one for you.
I live on campus with no possibility to have my own network because the school won't allow us to have anything else than their network..
This is one major problem because my PS3 won't connect to that network, is there any way I can use my phone (i9505, rooted) or anything else to make a "fake" network out of the eduroam-network to connect my PS3 to? Any help is appreciated
My YouTube is crashing and disconnecting from wifi. What can be? Only P920 on this fault occurs. (From Brazil)

Hi. I have similar problem. When I've installed 3g router I have problems with all flash videos. Same on laptop and phone. Whey stops loading. Maybe anyone know a solution? But when I'm putting my 3g stick directly to laptop it's ok. And phone loading videos perfectly when on mobile Internet. Thanks in advance.

Your problem is probably bandwidth issues. 3G dongles can't carry too much data at once like a standard router can and when its broadcasting its signal to multiple devices it will use up that bandwidth fairly quickly. The fact that it works fine when used with a single device points to bandwidth being the issue. Are you able to get another 3G dongle without paying for another plan?
I could try to get another dongle to test. Now I'm using Zte Mf112 with netgear n-mbrn3000 router. It's interesting, when I'm disconnecting all other devices it's the same problem. Maybe i should change something in routers configs? I have 10mbps plan, but the dongle is supporting 7.2 mbps. I always have download speed around 400kb/s.
