I was just wondering. I know that AT&T charges for for the wireless hotspot feature, but if I using a rooted rom does it allow me to use free wireless hotspot? I'm just asking because it is currently available on my tmobile G2. I wasn't sure if AT&T was able to notice, or not. Thanks in advance fellas.

I have been doing it on my Nexus One running CM7 for the last year with no charges. I have also been doing it for the past week with my Inspire running CM7 with no charges.
Okay awesome. I appreicate it! That's the answer I wanted.

With some ROMS, the HTC hotspot will work. I am running stock rooted, and Barnacle Wi-Fi works for me.
I just got the mytouch 4g today and I see that it had option to turn my phone into a wireless router. I am curious if this costs anything or not. I want to try it out but I don't have tethering on my plan and do not want a huge bill.

Just noticed today while using the new market that you can add At&t direct carrier billing as an option to buy apps over the air. Notice this will only work if you turn off WiFi & turn on mobile data. Also only works when buying apps that are based on U.S. currency, not ones that are converted.

I was able to do it on the old market but you couldn't charge apps to your bill that were in a foreign currency. Is it still the same on the new market?

I could do it before if I used a desire hd based Rom but not if I used an inspire based Rom & yes not if in foreign currency

could you charge it to a prepaid account?
So my parents decided they don't want to pay the tmobile bill.... So my phone is shut off :'(
I was wondering what's the best alternative plan I'm looking for something real cheap like 20$ a month I'm thinking a pre paid plan or something
My phones unlocked so I can use any sim. Tmobile has horrible service where I live. I'm planning on just using my sensation I don't need 4g, Data would be nice though.
So what do you guys think would be the best option for me?

Does t-mobile charge extra after you're being throttle?

no, thats what the throttles for, to slow ur role, lol.
I saw once there was a thread somewhere about changing apn and other things to get around the throttle but idk.
Yea the throttle apn tricks dont work. I suggest just getting the 5gb plan. I use my phone for netflix youtune tethering all kinds of data eating apps and i barely break 5gbs in a month. Thats also with 5 accounts synced as well.

Correction, the throttle trick do in fact work. The only time it won't work is if you are already throttled and try to do the trick. As long as you are not already throttled then it will work.

No lol. Film a video doing a speedtest along with a screenshot from my account with a piece of paper in the video tht says xda. Throttling is controlled on tmos end. Until then, your bluffing.

Yea 5gb is enough. If ur using 6+ gb then obviously you need a job.

I actually have a job buddy and I usually pull 10 hours a day. You can easily use that amount of data if you never use wifi!!!
I honestly don't care if you believe me about the throttle trick. I don't get paid for you to believe me.

Follow my screenshot and remember to click SAVE. Remember this will only work if you are not throttled yet. If you are currently throttled then you will have to wait till after your next billing cycle for this to work.

No you will not receive extra charges. Your internet service will only slow down after your allowance is met.

This is as far as I'd go. Check my screenshots. I don't know much about Speedtest numbers so maybe one of you can translate it and see if I'm throttled. Mind you those test were just done in my apartment where the service isn't the best.
I've been throttled before and I know how slow the internet gets. Its basically unusable once your throttled since it takes years for pages to load.

Yes and make sure you change the "T-Mobile Data" name to "T-Mobile US" and click save. Are you already throttled? You can check by using the "My Account" app to see if you've reached your data cap.

Thank you sir!!! If I wasn't so lazy I'd do a video with even more proof. Trust me guys it works and I have no reason to lie to you guys.
I was once data capped and I hated it and I did some research and found this trick from another user on XDA in the Samsung Galaxy S II forum.
