I just wanted to start a thread about ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ so please feel free to mention any Tips/Tricks you've noticed. LETS KEEP THIS THREAD CLEAN AND POSITIVE!
I noticed while in the app drawer you can also use the screen leap feature just as you would on the homescreen (take two fingers and pinch them together just as you would if you were to pinch to zoom).
If you double tap the home button it will bring up Vlingo voice command.
You can not zoom in and out in 1080p video recording mode, but you can zoom in and out in 720p and under mode while video recording.
If you hold down on the home button first and then click on the power button you can take screenshots.

Is easy tether a 3rd party app or is it built in?

It's a third party app, and I'm really not trying to push easytether, I've just used it and it works. I'm sure any of the other tethering without root apps would work.

Install LauncherPro, the scrolling dock creates less clutter

Does anyone know of a way to control the app wifi tether with the stock hotspot widget?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I use SwitchPro widget.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
SwitchPro, or perhaps Beautiful Weather. Forget if it has a Hotspot widget or not. I know it does have everything else though.
How do you configure SwitchPro Widget to control Wireless Tether? I just tried and it activated Sprint Hotspot instead.
I would like to know too

I'm still wondering how you configure SwitchPro Widget to control Wireless Tether.
I guess there is no answer
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I'd just make a nice looking shortcut to it using Desktop Visualizer..Something like the attached icon, for launching the app.
Wireless Tether as in the built-in tether, or the Wireless Tether for Root Users app? I know Extended Controls can be used to toggle the built-in Android hotspot (i.e. not Sprint's).

Sorry, I misread your OP. The 'Extended Control' uses the Sprint Mobile Hotspot. (No, I am not subscribing to Mobile Hotspot plan from Sprint but it works for me). I am rooted and running latest Calkulin's custom ROM.

Nandroid and give Calkulin's ROM a try. That is what I am using. It works on his ROM and can be turned on and off using Extended Controls widget. No hassles.

Yeah, I didn't realize it was a sense app. CM7s mobile hotspot is working now
I saw it asked in the FK23 threads and it peaked my curiosity, so a little searching and some messing around and here's what I came up with..
This is NOT my work!
First I want to thank xCaldazar from the Verizon S3 forums for his guide here
Edit - Thanks to Mattix724 for finding this - and to rickythefox, after posting this I found several posts linking to a thread that I didn't see. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1763441
He has made an app that will do this and he also has a mod for the sgs3 :beer:
Edited the guide and mod I made out as the app does this flawlessly, just make sure you have an updated version of busy box :beer:
Was given permission by rickythefox (Thank him in his thread please ) to port his mod for 12 apps listed when headphones are connected. So here is the new ported 12_app_headphone_mod.zip - 249.81 KB
Also, I forgot to mention, you need to download the app rickythefox made here in order for this to work!
Edit- Updated to work with GB08/GB27
Thanks TD for doing this while I was stuck at work LOL
Also for being kind enough to provide deodexed and odexed versions:thumbup:

I haven't looked too far into it to be honest... From what little bit I have, it seems like it's just way too limited in what apps it works in. Being able to scroll by waving my hand over the screen is cool and all, but I'd rather just put my fingers another inch closer and actually touch the screen as long as I can sync my bookmarks, browsing history, etc in Chrome. To me, it seems to be too trivial of a feature to really go looking to see if some tweak or hack exists to make it work in more places than just the stock browser...

Use a WiFi tether app. WiFi tether for root from the Playstore, or the Trevor? version of it on xda. If you can't find them let me know and I'll get you the links a little later.

What settings are you using? Every time I have Wifi Driver Reload 2 selected, it won't tether properly. It looks fine on the phone, but the computer won't pick up the signal.
I've used PDAnet and haven't had any problems switching between hotspot and back. Hotspot works great and switching back is easy (no reboot). I use it all the time for my tablet when no WiFi is available. Just thought I'd mention it.
