hi,
Hi guys...after roothing and install new ROM Virtuous Unity, my 3G sign on the status bar for mobile network became EVDO and i look at the settings for GLOBAL support but it was there. or switch to CDMA to GSM.? can some1 help me and clarify things? or is 3G & EVDO are the same? i got unlimit data plan on Verizon...it;s just concerns me...
Virtuous Unity is a rom port from a completely different phone. So you don't need to worry 3G on vzw is EvDO rev. A

thanks...so it means i cant use GSM mode when im using Vunity ROM? when travelling abroad? i cant find it in the settings
It the themes and apps section you'll find a zip which will change it back to say 3g.

I believe it doesn't support global mode yet. Use another ROM. Might I suggest RMKs debloated as a stable alternative?

I am going to root my friend's phone, but I don't really want to flash a custom rom. I'm sick of being people's personal tech support guy. His main interest is wireless tethering. Is there a way to unlock hotspot on the stock rom? Thanks

I'm not sure, but I would flash a rooted stock rom for him and then have him download the free wireless tether app from the Market.
The only one I like is "wireless tether for root users" and it doesn't work on the evo..

Yes, it does. I've used that app as my primary internet source when I lived in North Carolina last year ad earlier this year and I have an EVO 4G and was using it with the Wireless Tether app.
On sense or aosp?

Sense. On AOSP, I cannot get it to work with Gingerbread. There is a workaround but I have never tried it.
Ok ill give it a go. Haven't tried it with sense. I used it on my hero for months running cm7 with no problems but no dice with the evo. I even contacted Mueller and downloaded the latest version from Google code..

I just rooted my friends EVO a few weeks ago and left the stock Rom. The wireless tether app is working fine.

I believe you need a kernal which allows WT, try Lithids HTC Evo 4G Freedom-v0.9 Kernel Universal. Download WT right from Google on your phone.

I spent an hour messing with the internet setting of my 2 PC's trying to get them to surf. Then desided to do a search and found this post.
Thank you!!
You actually don't need a custom kernel.....
The hotspot hack works natively once you hack framework.jar.
And the wireless tether app only requires superuser permissions to work.

I just did s-off and got root with the revolution cwm.
I installed latest Virtuous Unity but now my phone does not see mobile network and internet connection. I tried different sim cards. I installed another version (2.35) of Virtuous Unity and here is the same problem. I had to restore the default verizone android OS and there is no network problem: the phone sees the network and sim card. Please help me.
Sorry for my english.
You will have to find a custom Tom that supports GSM. VU does not. There are a few on theMikMik.com that do and also a few on here.

Is there a way to make my 3g any faster? It really sucks, sprint says they're working on it but I know there are tweaks you can do. I just don't know where or how to find them

3g Turbocharger by zepplinrox ;Google it
Thanx, it seems a little complicated, what's the worse thing that could happen if I f it up ?
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
You open the script and use the unturbocharge option, or worst case reflash your rom after a full wipe I haven't had any issues with it and I've run all the options, I personally use option 2 or 5
Edit: not sure if the options are the same in the update, I use "faster" or "experimental nulled"
We are legion, for we are many.
Thanx , I've been working on it but for some reason it doesn't work, it say that it cannot create some folders and the bulletproof launcher won't work. I ran the test and It's not working. I'm gonna read a little more to see what I'm missing.

Make sure u have busybox 1.18.2 or lower installed you can use busybox installer from the market to check your version and change it if you need too

I got the problem... Init.d is disabled, I have no idea how to enable it, I googled and searched the forums and nothing.
P.S. I did have to downgrade bussybox

This speeds up 3G (you need sense ROM not ASOP)

Thanx, but that's for something else. And for some reason when I dial that code, it actually dials out instead of asking for the password

That's been proven to not work at all for general 3g speeds.

You probably didn't downgrade your EPST.
Thanks for the input, I am kind of new and teaching my self little by little, can you elaborate

I typically got 400 down 150 up on stock froyo. Running Mikg with anthrax kernel I'm now averaging 1m/400k. Louisville, ky.

The EPST tweak will only work in a Sense rom. If you were to try it and then flash to AOSP, it won't stick. The reason it dialed out instead of doing settings is because you're running AOSP. You would have to use the 3g TurboCharger tweak. Use the link in my sig.

Ok so I have a few questions if you guys would allow me to pick your brains.
I have installed cm9.1 on the galaxy s2 (SGH-T989) using clock work recovery. The phone is rooted using superSU. Pretty standard as far as it goes here. However:
<s>1) I have no wifi calling option and its running android 4.0.4 (ICS). Is this normal for this rom or do I need a different kernal or modem/radio to make this work? Because stock has this feature and its really important to keep message/calling costs down and get service in dead zones.</s>
2) I cannot get 4G data. Only "H" and 3G. I got Edge/2G/3G/4G with stock. Is this normal or do I need to do something else to get this to work?
3) What are good custom kernals to use for this phone because I looked on the sticky and there are only three listed and some are discontinued. Also what are the major advantages of a custom kernal over samsungs stock? I.E. What does it add/modify?
4) Do custom radios change signals your phone can pick up? What exactly does changing the radio do?
THANKS!
~NEW!~
1)Since no wifi calling is a deal breaker for me I'm going to try a new rom, so! I'm looking at darkside and akop. Any opinions on these roms or experiences you guys have had with these good or bad?
2) CWM vs TWRP ~ GO!
Just trying to get better informed. Thanks everyone! :highfive:
Also if there are guides I missed that explain these things I'm sorry just link me to them if you would be so kind. Thanks!

This and stick with stock kernels for now. Different radios work better in different areas, so just try until you find the best one for you.

Haha yea after I got the answer I felt dumb I just never saw the little icon use "H" to explain a radio type and didn't think about that related to 4G as standing for hspa. Also I learned hspa exists using WCDMA. Cool. :victory:
The "H" means HSPA+ which is 4g.
Only Touchwiz ROMs have Wifi Calling (CM9 is AOSP Based)
The best kernel to use is the Darkside Venom Kernel for CM9 AOSP http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1775075
As far as radios go they can change the amount of signal. Certain radios make signal better in different areas. I PREFER THE GALAXY NOTE RADIO FOR Galaxy S2 (T-Mobile)
HOPE THIS HELPED!
Darkside, only tw roms have wifi calling, aosp roms like cm9,10 and aokp dont.

Is there a kernal i can flash with the stock rom that would give me iptables/netfilter?
I am running triple s v. 6.4.0 and I was wondering if there is any way I can boost the signal that I send out when I use my hotspot I'm running the Mason kernal and I'm on cricket not sprint. Any help would be very appreciated thanks

There are a couple of apps on the Play Store to boost your wifi signal, but in all I think there is no such thing.
Don't quote me on this, but I think the Wi-Fi signal was brought down to save battery. Although I have used other roms that had better signal I don't think there is too much you can do.

It all has to do with what tweaks are added,there is a tweak for wifi and 3G.

I'm actually using the same ROM, there's been a recent beta update to 6.5. If using script tweaks doesn't work for you, maybe updating will improve your signal, I see Sniper has a new script baked in, thanks to a friend. Beware, though. Be sure to explicitly follow the flashing directions he provides in the OP. Partitioning your SD card is vital, I know because I've tried without it and ended up not having a browser app, and there could be more problems, idk, still smoothing things out. There are some enhancements though, and it's only a beta, so don't get your hopes up for something stable.
