Hi guys, is it possible to limit the amount of data that a person can use?
For example, a friend of mine wanted to use my hotspot as he have no internet access. I decided to share with him 50 or 100mb of my data.
Is there an application that allows me to control how much data that the person can use? (E.g. 50mb) After that it will automatically turn off the mobile hotspot.
Thanks for your help.

Hey guys,
Forgive me if this is not the proper forum location to post this.
I have a question about an android system information app. My company is looking at using a very locked down smartphone in the retail stores as a SIP phone over WiFi. Essentially these phones would only be good for wifi calling through our network. I have been able to lock the phone down pretty good but I am having a little bit of trouble finding an app that will monitor the phone and report statistics back to us (through a web browser or email). Basically we would need to remotely check the usage/stats but we don't really want to use something like airdroid or teamviewer as this would disrupt the users usage. Any ideas on a good app? I haven't been able to find anything and I know you guys are digital wizards..
Thanks in advance guys!
Hi to everyone, this is my first post even if I've often read this beautiful forum. I have a question about hotspot capabilities in CyanogenMod 12 Lollipop (5.0.2). I had my S4(jftlexx) personal WPA protected hotspot (though with a very dummy password) and was sharing connection with my girlfriend, when suddenly looking at the phone I found out two devices where connected. As soon as I was aware I stopped the hotspot and now here's my question: if someone was able to deduct my hotspot password and connected to my personal hotspot, was it able to browse my personal file and eventually steal it?
I'm asking because I have on my phone very sensible data, that should remain on my own. I know that it's not directly possible without a dedicated app installed, like an FTP server (i have superbeam installed even I'm 100% sure its server was not running and sharing nothing), but someone with some knowledge and hacking intentions could be able to do this? thank you, and sorry, I'm a little in panic

i know that you can change the User Agent String in your browser to assist in getting around your carriers tethering caps and charges but is it possible to do the same for a program other than a browser such as a PC game so that you could play online without being capped or charged extra for the service?

Possible to completely disable 2G 3G ALL data on Android directly using some Software on PC or Phone or via MDM?
There have been cases of some people I know (older family) that were brought an Android phone but inadvertently some Data was used without a Data Plan - more expensive.
Lets say instead of buying Feature Phones for some delivery boys, we bought Cheapest Android phones possible - The boss there just wants Phone calls with them and wants to ensure the boys wont be able to Rack up Data use/ bills on the phone -
Are there ways to Disable Data AND/ OR WiFI? Selectively or so? Maybe only have it on when being configured by MDM?
Please point of ways that this can be done.. Or point to forums where this information can be ascertained.
Thanks.

Good Afternoon,
Im looking for a solution for an idea I have for an app and was wondering if anyone could assist from a technical perspective.
Basically im in the very early stages of developing a app which is for drinks and food discount codes for bars/restaurants. What im looking for is some form of router whereby the user of the app walks into the venue and connects to router (Bluetooth for example) then opens the app and there is a unique code generated for the particular bar and time. The code would then appear on the app and could be used for the discount.
I was thinking about a simple WiFi router but then you would have to save each WiFi password on your phone and would undoubtedly be complicated.
I've seen some Bluetooth routers but im unsure how this would work.
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
James
