Ill be picking up a gs4 next week and wanted to know once we got some development going to allow tethering, if my phone gets unlocked to use on another carrier, would i be able to use that carriers network to tether?

The question is when ?

That option has been there for ever when you access it via the secret code.
And I don't think the s3 is lte equipped

As far as I know sg3 doesn't have lte radio

It wasn't here before this JB update. It used to only be wcdma or GSM. This has to of been added for a reason

+1 lets hope! I know in atlanta Verizon lte speeds average 30-35 MBPS
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
Its there becsuse sammy built the same JB base for all the carriers.
Seriously, dont get your hopes up for this. It has been discussed a lot in the past and our hw will not support LTE.

And with the gs3 pulling anywhere from 16 to 24 mbps I can only imagine how lte is gonna treat us

OP, are listening or ignoring the people who keep saying that our S3 doesn't have an LTE radio?

I'm listening of course I just have a different opinion
Sent from my SGH-T999
Just like everyone else, ive been wrong before, and it would be awesome if I am this time. I just dont think it does a lot of good to speculate either way when the rollout doesnt even start till next year and most of us wont see it till a year after that
It just seems to serve to confuse people and get their hopes up when it probably wont even work with this phone.
Also, a number of people have unlocked the T999 for use on Sprint and Verizon and are not able to get LTE. Just sayin. Im leaving it at that though.

the nice thing about MSM8960 SOC board is that the radios can be programmed to virtually any current GSM, HSPA or LTE frequency in use in the United States today. the board has a RAT lock on it and not sure if it can be unlocked but all GS3's support any of the three frequency's. now if any one knows how to unlock and program them thats another story.. and just cause the software has a setting doesnt mean tmobile put it in there. and with the gs4 launching in feb-mar im not to sure they would even update the gs3. every one wants lte and if you have to buy a new phone to get it then thats how they make money.
Well I have talk to several people from samsung and tmobile and they said that the s3 is capable of the LTE, but you can't use them till the end of this year and beginning of 2013 .I hope this is true, if you guys don't believed me ask Samsung or T-Mobile and I try 5 times different people and they all told me the same ....

To add to this... if you go on the app manager in the setting.. and go on the all apps.. u ll notice these 2 apps
Com.test.LTEfunctionality.. and com.test.LTEtestmodesetting.
Explain this

This is probably because they use the same build for all 4 models and it's easier to leave it in since 3 carriers carry it?
But anyways the s2 Hercules also had that option, but the hardware didn't allow it.

Seriously I could care less about LTE. First off, I get great speeds with hspa, second, by the time LTE has arrived I will have already moved on to another phone that supports LTE.

By the time lte does roll out... The galaxy s4 will be out and most of us will switch to it. And I'm pretty sure the s4 will support lte

A simple Google search will show that this model of the S3 does not have an lte radio.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
I dont' think they would pull out the LTE radio from thew chip just for T-mobile so I'm sure it's there BUT, T-mobile as being plain greedy of all companies across world has to release their Long Term Evolution Network on band NOT supported by S3 they will make more money on new phones possible Galaxy S3 Rocket or whatever

Well thats your opinion. THere is no reason to post a thread about an opinion with zero information backing it up. It is quite rude of you actually. DocHoliday has been telling everyone that there is no possible way for our phone to support LTE. And why does he say this? Well because thats his opinion, but he has it backed by very simple to understand hardware specs. LTE is a total separate radio then the standard GSM that our device has. So unless they release a new S3 for T-Mobile, then the S3 will never see LTE. There is no amount of software hacking that will put a hardware component into a device. And every T-Mobile person i have asked confirmed the S3 will NOT support LTE. SO EVERYONE just leave it already.
What really annoys me is how you decided you just had to create a whole separate thread about this which has been discussed hundreds of times. you have an opinion great, post in a thread that already exists.

Was just about to say this. Thanks Teo!
So I just decided to get a note 2 with Sprint as my provider.
I plan on rooting as soon as I get it (Friday I hope!) After I root I plan on getting tether going.
Since I travel for a living (pilot) I need tethering to avoid crappy hotel wireless.
What is the best tether for root users.
With my old EVO I used wireless tether which worked great.
However I plan on using tether whearever I have a LTE signal. Is LTE tethering apps different that regular tethering?
Thanks!
as of now there is only one way to tether with our phone through a modded version of wireless tether for root users, check the faq to see where to get it

"wireless tethering works now". That's all it says. Where is the link to the mod?
that's on the first question, if you read lower there is a question "is there a way to tether wirelessly?" which has a link

File link for WifiTether_TrevE_Mod_11_20_2012_insmodv3.apk
http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=9390169635556426691
Saw this too "Installed the latest 11/20 build and can confirm the WIFI re-connection issue. Fell back to 11/18, which seems to run perfect.
Maybe it's the fact that my phone is a Sprint GS3. I do see many GS3 owners having the same issue. "
I don't know if the Note 2 has issues with the 11-20 version or if it is only the SGS3. If there are any issues..I would consider trying the 11-18 version.
I'm rooted and I've tried Wifi Tether for Root, Pdanet 3.50, 4.xx, foxfi, easytether lite and I can't get tethering going. Some of them will connect to the phone but when it comes time to pull up a page they fall flat on their face. As far as I can tell usb debugging is enabled. I'm on the Root66 rom on a t999 that I'm using a net10 at&t sim in. I just can't figure it out. Help please.
T-Mobile has a way to tell if you're tethering without paying for it. Don't know if AT&T has the same, but it could be the cause either way.
This may be something best asked in the AT&T forum since they'll know more about their policies.

need a rom with unrestricted tethering, check the android development section
cheers
I am pretty sure this was asked before but either the search in here nor in Google gave me a proper answer. Is is possible to make this phone work on AT&T? It uses Sim cards and is able to be used in Europe. But I also know American carriers like to block the Simcard use on those phones within the USA. So is it possible to use this phone on AT&T?

The sprint simcard is cdma for 3g while att is gsm. Plus the sim card for sprint phone is soldered in so unless you know how to do that...

Yeah kinda. But I was thinking it would be easier then that. So when u take it over to Europe u couldn't even put a simcard from Europe in? That kills the function of being a world phone.

Hello to all.
I attempted to flash a Boost mobile native galaxy s3 running 4.1.2 to Pageplus last night. Got voice and text working fine, however, cannot get data up and running, even 1x.
Loaded Pageplus Prl, and tried to *228 to no avail. Also tried manually change the settings in the paid version of cdmaws, under the 'evdo' section.
The S3 thread was closed, so I thought I would post here, and see if anyone could point me in the right direction? If this is the wrong section, please advise, and I will be happy to post there.
I also read that there is a way to obtain 3g without using a donor, and I thought it may be similiar to sprint to boost flashing using wifi, but that did not work either.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Be well.
Anyone???

the reason nobody is really willing to help is because its a drawn out process ive been flashing phones to pageplus and verizon for years and what happens is after its flashed if you dont pay your bill in a timely manner your data will stop working. and guess what the LAST PERSON TO WORK ON IT IS now MaRrIed to that dam phone meaning that all subsequent issues get blamed on the last person that touched it. i wont even do it for free anymore due to [a holes] acting/feeling entitled

Ok. Will you help me out with the steps? Or, point me in the direction to find the steps? Or? Can I "donate" for help with the steps?
I tried flashing my daughter's S2 (sprint native) to straight talk, as I forgot to check the esn prior to buying a network access card. And wouldn't you know, it was a bad esn with sprint.
So, if anyone can help me out today, or tonight. Please let me know.
