Hey guys,
Sprint just cancelled me for tethering and I'm just gonna go with a Nexus 4G so I want to sell my phone and accessories. I'm pissed I JUST bought my micro sd and anker batteries! The good part is the phone is a week old from an insurance claim so it's immaculate. Anyway, here's what I'm selling:
E4GT rooted w/latest Jellybean leak
2 Anker 1800m batteries w/external charger (also 3 days old)
Aegis Trident case black
Sandisk class 10 32GB micro SD.
What do you think?

Out of curiosity, did they cut you because of the data use from tethering or because of the tethering itself

To be honest with those accessories and phone being in new condition you could score a good 210 at least and most 240 to 260$ depending on the person. I'm currently selling one for 150$ without accessories and a messed up ear phone jack on craigslist haha.

At first they said excessive roaming, but that was bs because I never leave home. So they investigated further and said it was due to "tethering without a tethering plan." No warning, nothing. I woke up and was shut off this morning. I love downloading full albums and movies. I suppose I could have challenged them for having "unlimited data" but screw it. I'll get a Nexus 4 off contract w/Tmo unlimited 70 bucks a month.

It was probably roaming while they are doing NV upgrades. If it was really for tethering you wouldn't have gotten out etf free. They would have either opted for you to add tethering or would have just added it to your next bill. What tethering app were u using?

I was using the Trevmod Wireless tether for root users. The real crappy part is my wife's epic touch didn't get shutoff (I have a family plan), and the account is mine. Wtf!!! I can at least tether off her for web at least.

Technically they can't tell you were tethering unless you were using the sprint hotspot. They can *claim* you were cuz of desktop protocols, but just tell em your browser on your phone is set to desktop user agent which uses the same protocols as your desktop browser. Most likely you were roaming due to the upgrades going on and whatever carrier you roamed on claimed you were tethering. At least you didn't have to pay the etf.

If one was to browse on say the galaxy tab 2 7.0, would it be impossible to tell if a person was tethering than? I'm assuming that the browser on the tab is similar to the browser on a phone, right?

Android to android is even more incognito than android to windows/linux/mac, but the more advanced phone browsers and apps become the harder it is to tell the difference between mobile and desktop data packets. I would say in the next 5 years all internet capable devices will be using almost identical protocols to access the web which means all data would look the same to anyone sniffing packets. I'm grandfathered in on an unlimited tethering plan on my work line and I use upwards of 100GBs a month on it for work and I tether my personal line (same account) to my tablet and laptop and have been for 3 years and sprint never says anything. Between the 5 lines on our account we average 250GB a month.

Just a quick ?, OP have you looked at your usage on sprint.com to see your roaming usage?? Just wondering if Sprint is about to crack down on tethering or if it was roaming which we all know they crack down on. Thanks for any info....and I wouldnt sell for less than $300 BTW but depends how quick you need the cash, think about the fact no one can get an android able to run jb on sprint for under $450 from retail.

Yeah just read that as well... kinda sucks because I use bill to Account to test the phones without having to wait a month and a half to receive a refund. Sprint current policy is refund process within 10 days of receiving phone 21 business days to cut check and 14 business days for check to arrive. Had this happen to me with the nexus s... so I will not buy a phone without recommendations from you guys for now on...lol...

I actually am surprised they went this long and still allowed billing to the account.
I'll bet they get stiffed quite a bit by people ordering phones, then never paying the invoice.
If it helps Sprint keep money in their pocket, and in turn helps to keep unlimited data indefinitely, go right ahead and take that away to. Better that, then to have to pay extra for what we already have.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
I again don't understand why long time customers can't still do this.
Obviously if you'be been with Sprint for 5 years or more you're extremely unlikely to do something like that.

In case you didn't know, T-Mobile prorates their data packages. This is how i pay $32 for 10gbs of data a month. Includes a little headache but works every month.
My standard package:
$20 Android Perfered Web (5gb Unlimited Data)
I generally hit my data cap within 2-3 weeks of my monthly cycle. I call in Tmo and ask them to bump me to 10gbs (the longer you can wait the cheaper). I use wifi at home so I don't really need data on the weekends so I just wait till the next Monday if i can stand it. In case you were wondering how I hit 5gbs in 2-3 weeks, I stream podcasts off stitcher while working.
So they prorate my $20 5gbs to $10 or $15 then add the $30 or lower for 10gbs.
sidenote: **** T-Mobile, they have been ****ing me my entire contract. I planned on renewing (I started with a Galaxy S 1 Vibrant and I bought my GSII cash) and getting a GSIII but seriously I hate tmobile and touchwiz so **** it I'll wait on the next nexus.

I have just a couple of questions. I just picked up an e4gt and I am going to flash it to Page Plus.
1. I see that I will only achieve 1x with the flash, I don't even remember what a speed difference that is. Is it terrible? I am not a heavy cell data user (most of the time have wifi) but I don't want it to be unusable.
2. Does anyone have info on using a donor phone to get 3g to work on the flashed phone?
Any other users out there that have e4gt on pageplus have any comments? How do you like the setup? I have a droid x2 on pp now and I have enjoyed it.
Thanks!
Usually u need the HA and AAA passwords from the donor to get 3g and then will need the APN settings to get MMS working. However idk if that works with pageplus or if you are limited to 1x only. You will have to Google how to retrieve the passwords tho
We are legion, for we are many.

OK well I guess it isn't easy. But if you do your research there a plenty of guides out there. They may not be for page plus but they are for similar cdma carriers and the process is generally the same. Some of the input values are just slightly different.
Edit: I am really considering switching to page plus in the next couple months as I am so sick of virgins horrible data speeds and I miss the reliability of the Verizon network.

Who lied? Have you gone back and disputed this? If it was done at the store Customer service can't do much as there's no proof to what you're claiming is true so the best option is to go back to store and vice versa. Airave does help if you qualify for one. Check www.sprint.com/airavecoverage. For your discount you have to apply through www.sprint.com/verify but nothing anyone can do in regards to the % the company you're claiming offers.

Discount for ups. Store said I would get it then they said no because I'm on the second line. And wouldn't let me return the phones. It was at best buy. Supposed to get 22% off. Called sprint and they said it on best buy side. Went to best buy and they saying nothing they can do. So stuck.
I had a regular landline at home. And had boost. Got rid of it because i got sprint.

Ouch.....that bites...g
Whatever it is, they're definitely going to do something.. Either throttle you if you're grandfathered on unlimited or $4-500 in overage on a tiered plan.

Well if they have not throttled him and he only has 7 days left in his cycle, he may get throttled for 7 days.. but it resets when his cycle does so i think hes good to go... (as long as hes Grandfather'd on an unlimited plan that is lol)
Good lord. I'm grandfathered into an unlimited plan and I still get leery when I approach 5GB. Guess I can lighten up a bit and see what the actual limit is.

And people wonder why providers are tight with data usage?
I think I've approached 5 gb maybe twice.

On Verizon, and on average, I use about 40gb a month. Been this way for awhile and never had any trouble.
I'm not sure about this guy but I have no choice. My phone is my internet for my whole family. It's this or dial up. Luckily I have great 4g and unlimited data.
I usually keep my data usage hush hush because people react so negativity to it. I pay my bills. I buy all my devices full price. I'm gonna use my data.

In light of recent events of tech companies giving away my data, I have zero qualms about using the hell out of their data.

Wow are you running a server from your phone lol
Hahah yea I'm on the grandfathered unlimited. I have been switching my APNs around and found that I got my lte speeds back but recently they throttled me to around 400-500kbs. not a big deal really since I use my phone like a laptop anyways and I still get to do everything I want with those speeds. Just takes some patience for Netflix or videos to load though.

Perhaps this is silly to ask but I'm not going to assume anything - have you gone through that much data without tethering? If so, that is quite a feat!

Ya that would be impressive. I never tether and my record is 16 GB.

Definitely tethering. We don't have internet at our apartment so I tether. Mostly streaming. Heh heh

I've hit 150~GB without tethering. Constant pirating and/or having something (music, Facebook, Google+ picture uploads, DropBox, Box, etc.) use my data 24/7. My passive aggressive way of telling AT&T that I will not be denied my data usage even when throttled at 5GB.

Wow. If I were AT&T I wouldn't even be mad. That's amazing.
