Tethering App that works without root and bypasses the Network. - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.estrongs.android.pop ES File Explorer v3.0.2. Go to tools then to net manger then create a hotspot. Worked on my Skyrocket non rooted with AT&T. Used my tablet to confirm worked great.

Or you could side load FixFi. Used that before I even knew what ODIN was.

mrfeuss made a typo, the application was called FoxFi. The app was recently merged with PDANet+; both should be in the play store. If they aren't try googling both and going to their respective websites. They both host their APKs for free.
Edit: Here, I've gotten the links for you
FoxFi: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.foxfi
PDANet+:https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.pdanet
In my experience, PDANet+ gave me troubles, so I've stuck with FoxFi.
Hope that helped!

Foxfi- "this item isn't available on your carrier" ?
Edit: searched to find the solution. Get it from here if you have the same issue..

I've been using foxFI and I am a happy camper!

I used these apps and they do work. But only circumvent the carrier partially.
When I try to use a browser (Chrome) I get a message saying I have reached my tether limit and to upgrade to proceed. But apps like Taptu can still get data without a problem. So there is something the browser is sending that lets T-Mobile see it that Taptu is not.
Any ideas? I am specifically trying to circumvent my carrier's limit. I have unlimited data, but there is a hard limit of 500MB a month for tethering, and they will not let me go over that without setting up a separate $20/month thing for tethering.

Hi,
Maybe because you installed the latest version of Kies.
I have the rogers version of the skyrocket and I can't get it to work with the latest version. Don't know why but many people have the same problem.
i found an older version that works well. the file version is Kies_2.0.3.11082_152_2
here's the link.

[Q] AAHK Problem! Cant start up the rooting menu(hack ace) please help.

I am trying to root my HTC Inspire 4G 2.3.5, i am on Windows Vista. Whenever i go to run the hack ace by Admin an error message like this pops up in the command prompt....
" file "sc" is missing or corrupt.
Your PC Windows ENV is damaged and should be repaired.
At least one default system file is missing, corrupt
or the Windows PC env has been otherwise compromised.
The Hack Kit quits before damage is done to your phone.
Retry with a different PC or try a 32-bit Ubuntu Linux LiveCD."
Is there something i can do or download to prevent this? or will i just have to use a different PC??
i have ran the Ubuntu and when i try it on there the same message appears in the terminal(command prompt).

my phone is on debugging mode and the fast boot is off, and firmware is 2.3.5 and im aware that i must downgrade to 2.3.3 but i get that error message before i can even get the rooting menu in command prompt.
If you could uninstall all antivirus programs and disable all firewalls...then re-download the AAHK....that could be the problem....

[Q] Motorola Droid Maxx Stuck at Droid Logo on Boot

I got a notification this morning on my Droid Maxx for the OTA update that just came out. I told it to install this afternoon. After doing so, my phone rebooted, showed the progress of the update, and then about half way through showed me a form of the Android logo that said "failed" underneath. Ever since that, I cannot get my phone to fully boot. I tried clearing the cache from the recovery mode menu but that had no effect. I also cannot get the phone to boot into safe mode. My phone was not rooted so I'm not exactly sure why there was an issue with the update. Just wandering if anybody has any suggestions on what to do at this point? Worst case scenario I'm assuming I can restore to factory defaults but I would really like to avoid that if possible. Thanks in advance for the help!
Sounds like you should be able to FXZ and retain data to stock then take the update again.

Thank you for the suggestion! I'm pretty much a noob at this. Are there any good tutorials you would suggest that demonstrate how to do what you suggested? I found the following site: sbf.droid-developers. org/obake/list.php (had to put spaces in it in order to post it) I began downloading the second file in the list which I'm assuming is the correct one. I've gathered that you have to edit an XML file in package. But I'm not really sure what to edit and I'm not sure about how to get it to my phone. Do I use the Motorola Device Manager or the Android development tools?
You actually do not have to edit them you can use the xt1080 and copy them over. That's what I had thought also but you don't have to edit them.

If you are trying to not lose you user data, i would remove the line

You don't have to remove any lines if you are using what is already zipped up, once you run house of moto it gives you the option to keep data.

Accidentally removed bluetooth.apk--bt won't work after restore

So I accidentally removed bluetooth.apk while debloating my phone with Titanium Backup. When I restored the backup, it will not work--not even to start bluetooth. It just crashes whenever I try to turn it on.
I removed a lot of other stuff too...all was supposed to be safe. Does bluetooth.apk depend on something else I have removed?

It worked perfectly before I inadvertently removed the file. :/
The BLE Crash Resolver doesn't work, because I cant even get BT to start.
