Hi,
I'm experiencing problems with PocketIE.
Simply it doesn't not load pages: as soon as I tap Go or I give Enter, it says "Connecting..." in the bottom bar, then 0 KB, then nothing again, and does not load anything!
It simply stays idle on the default home page!
Every other application is able to use my internet connection.
Any suggestions
Ciao, ErMeglio
Looks like you have a connection issue: problem is not PocketIE, but your PDA don't connect to internet.
Just to be sure, try istalling other browsers: OperaMini, etc. I bet, other browsers will not connect, too.
Try to check internet connection

This happened to me when i imported my config XML using advanced config.. the only way to fix it is to hard reset i think.
I discovered this because I wanted to install signed OperaMini in my own language as I always did: downloading from IE by Mobile. That's the only way to get it signed, since suggestions I found on other threads didn't work(MANIFEST modify).
The fact is this situation is after an HR and Internet works perfectly: WLM is listening "as items arrive" and so my Exchange email set in Active Sync.
BUT, this is also after me messing with SDConfig.txt...I've set all my usual apps and some xml and this:

actually makes sense.Infact one of the XML I make SDConfig.txt import is the one exported from AdvanedConfig, just after my personalizations. I don't remember if I did import it again by the app another time after HR, but I don't think so. Did you try importing it differently(SDConfig, other apps)? I'd like to understand if it's the xml itself, or the importing from the AdvConf app.
I've just noticed that the index file of IE cache (on sd according to my xml) is somehow "locked": I can't delete it. It could be IE can't write there too.
I'm doing a complete loong scan disk of my Micro by Windows Vista (even if I never had a problem, it always complains about corruption, so let's try and see what Mr. Bill can do )...then I'll delete cache from pc and try again...
I've much to learn to get my SDConfig work in all its parts
@abusalza
Yes, I'm using PDACornerPro.V22 but posted separately because this issue was not there at first, so it's -99%- sure it isn't your rom's fault, thanks for interesting
As soon as I get everything working through SDConfig, I'll go for final v23, I see you're uploading
[UPDATE]
Ok, just did the scandisk and it found 450MB of damaged files! I really don't know where and how, but I deleted the so-big FOUND.000 directory it made and didn't really understand where all that stuff came from.I deleted any file into IE's cache dirs too but no luck with IE, same matter.
Will flash V23, make SDAutoRun do its duties and see...
If it's confirmed to be an AdvConf matter, why don't we discuss it with Schap?
Well, just to let you or someone who comes here later know how this story finished, I found which was the matter!
With AdvancedConfig I changed the Application Data directory and moved it to storage card.
Seems IE didn't like that tweak: I simply changed it to \Application Data again and woilà, IE started working
Thanks for pointing me to the solution
Ihave Same Problem But When I Using Rom Wm5 With Original Cingular Ie Work Fine But When I Upgrade To Wm6 Or At&t, That Happen Again, I Try Install Opera It's Work Fine
I have a brand new issue that, for the first time, I haven't been able to resolve from existing posts on the forum.
When Cyanogen nightly build 92 first came out I loaded it on my phone and everything had been working flawless. Yesterday I swapped my SD card for a another one, something I do with regularity and have never had trouble. Afterward, the phone wouldn't boot.(black screen) I swapped back and still nothing. I removed the SD card entirely and installed another SIM from my G1. Although, it would not boot into the phone I was finally able to boot into CW, so I reset all caches, reformatted boot, system and data. Reinstalled build 92. About halfway through the reinstall the phone suddenly rebooted. I started over again, wiping cache, reformatting and reinstalling to build 92. (I double checked md5sum just in case the file was corrupt) This time it installed perfectly and I was able to reboot the phone back to what appeared to be normal.
Now everything appears to work fine except for one very serious flaw. I can no longer connect to an APN. I can search networks and see them but when I select one it says cannot register on network. If I connect to WiFi the "WiFi calling feature works fine and all seems normal. I did a little research and was told to check my IMEI. Sure enough it is 111111111111111 which is obviously invalid. I have no idea if the Invalid IMEI is a symptom of another problem or the cause.
Just for grins, I borrowed a friends AT&T Sim to see what would happen.( I recently updated to the gfree .05 for full unlock) There was no difference except of course, AT&T doesn't support T-mobile's WiFi Calling.
So here is where I stand so far:
Original SIM is fried so have a new one
Invalid IMEI but I have my original logged
WiFi Calling allows me to operate the phone normally but I can't go anywhere this way.
I have all of my CW backups and have tried them to no avail.
The swap of my SD Card is normal for me. When I travel I use an encrypted card for all of my data. (A slightly paranoid industry, {Corporate Intelligence} but hey, I get to use calling encryption)
I never store apps on my SD card and always select Internal as my installation location, not that it should cause a problem anyway.
I have been actively using and updating my phones since Jesus Freke started on 1.5 on the G1, so I am not afraid to get creative.
Any suggestion or direction at this point would be greatly appreciated.
Hi, I recently bought a used Sprint Tab 3. It's a data sim card version but I only plan to use it for wifi. Previous owner did a factory reset. Everything works fine, I rooted it to get rid of bloatware, no sim notifications, sprint crap etc. However, when I go to settings -> about device -> status, it shows a user name, eg. "[email protected]" plus a phone number, MIN, PRL, etc. Tablet shows as connected to 3G network even though there's no sim card. If I enable airplane mode and reboot, all the fields show up as unknown and mobile network as disconnected, however the username remains.
I believe that info is from the previous owner, but where is it stored? I'm guessing the tab is getting it from the network even though there is no sim card in it to authenticate it which doesn't make sense. Removing all Sprint related stuff does nothing. I tried wiping the whole tablet and flashing a beta CarbonRom that was in the forums and the info still shows up in the about device status. I flashed back to stock rooted. Only difference is that android 4.2.2 has the username option while kit kat doesn't. Since I had made a complete backup of the tablet, I wiped the efs partition just for the heck of it and rebooted. Interestingly enough it removed the Sprint boot animations and replaced them with stock Samsung ones. Folder was recreated by android. Everything else is still the same. I was expecting the tab not to connect to anything anymore but I guess not. For all the doom and gloom that is said about wiping the efs partition, I was a bit surprised that it didn't absolutely nothing. There wasn't even a nv_data.bin file in it (although my S3 is also missing this file for some reason too.)
Any suggestions? I was thinking about trying to contact the person that sold it me, maybe he hasn't taken the tab off his account yet or something. If anything I can just keep airplane mode on with wifi enabled, still wondering how the tab is getting that info. I'd rather not have anything of the previous owner on it.
Q&A for [MOD] Enable Native Tethering without limits
Some developers prefer that questions remain separate from their main development thread to help keep things organized. Placing your question within this thread will increase its chances of being answered by a member of the community or by the developer. Thanks for understanding and for helping to keep XDA neat and tidy! :smile:
After all that, it was the default.xml too...
First off, BIG thanks to everyone in this thread!
I finally got this to work on the Tmo stock ROM by rooting, s-off, apply .zip as instructed in OP. I was then able to change the APN through the interface, but this does NOT change the APN and several other settings in "default.xml" under /system/customize/ACC, so still blocked. Use ES File Manager in root access mode to open and edit the "default.xml" file. If in doubt, make a copy of this file in case you muck it all up!
The strings I changed were as follows, from the top of the default.xml file to the bottom:
"isTetherBlockCheck">false (was set to true on my system)
"tethering_guard_support">false (was set to true on my system)
"fixed_apn_for_dun">fast.t-mobile.com (was set to pcweb.tmobile.com)
"TetheringGuard_Rule">0 (was set to 4 on my system)
Save the changes, reboot and good to go.
[Note: I just followed the previous thread, and wa redirected to this one...]
OK....I know this is a little late... But I wanted to check to see why there were minor inconsistencies.
First, I am running rooted stock, S-off.
I did this whole thing way out of order...so bear with me:
1. First I used the sqlite editor and changed every occurrence of "pcweb.t-mobile" to "fast.t-mobile" in /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/telephony.db
2. Next, I copied the settings.odex from /system/app/ folder and put it into my sdcard/Download folder (this was probably useless step). Also, just to be cautious, I copied my settings.apk to the same /system/app directory, renaming it system.apk.bak.
3. I downloaded the tethers.zip and the settings.apk onto my SD card.
I then flashed the tethers.zip in recovery... Stupidly, I forgot to mount the system partition (even after reading a reminder that this needed to be done by Fenny).
4. I rebooted my phone, went into the/system/app folder and moved the settings.odex to my /sdcard/Download folder (so now i had two in there!).
5. I then changed the APN settings from ipv6 to ipv4 and saved them.
6. Next, I moved the settings.odex file back to /system/app.
7. I then copied the default.xml from /system/customize/ACC to my sdcard/Download folder and opened it in a more robust text editor.
I changed one occurrence of "pcweb.t-mobile" to "fast.t-mobile". There was also a value for "tetheringuard_rule" set to "4", which I changed to "0". I saved that default.xml file and copied it back to /system/customize/ACC. Plus I made two additional changes per slayerBills comment above. (Thank you!!)
8. Lastly, I copied the downloaded settings.apk file and replaced the file in /system/app (Note: I still had my original one named settings.apk.bak)
9. I made sure ever file I copied over to the system had the correct octal permissions of chmod 644.
The thing I don't understand is how my settings.oak changed. One version I downloaded from the OP (in the other thread), but before I replaced that so-called pristine copy, I decided to keep it. What is strange is that the downloaded settings.apk is 19.75Mb, my original before I started any of this was 20.41Mb, and then if the tethers.zip contained another version, then that version was 20.08Mb.
It may all be negligible...But it Judy seemed odd to me.
Lastly... my question is this: provided i did everything correctly above, if i had already received the upsell notice from TMO, will the above effort benefit me at all?

Edit: Despite my unorthodox sequence of steps, and the fact that I didn't need to download the separate settings.apk (in fact, I used my original settings.apk (I believe) and only made changes to the default.xml and the telephony.db (plus the ipv6 to ipv4 APN change).
[Even though I got the ominous 3GB warning message yesterday informing me I could no longer share my mobile data, I have since used another 3GB with it tethered to my laptop.]
I did forget to change my user-agent/string at first, but it didn't cause be any problems. Had anyone ever heard of T-Mobile surprising you with a supplemental bill for data? Just curious....
Update a week later:
I know the steps I list above are a little hard to follow, but at the end of the day (after I copied back my original settings.apk which prevented settings from crashing), I have not had a single problem tethering whatsoever.
Before I came to this thread (or the original one in Development), I had received the 3GB shutoff warning with offer to buy more data. This particularly pissed me off because for budgetary reasons I don't have Wi-Fi in my home this month, but every month in the past 3 years I have used Wi-Fi...which meant TMOUS never had to provide me more than a few hundred MB data per month under my "unlimited data" plan.
So after several years of over-paying for "unlimited data" and using but a fraction of it, I was certainly not going to pay for more data this month just because I hit the 3GB mark.
That said, I am being quite voracious in my data consumption by tethering to my laptop. Even though I am using a hotspot from an Android phone using carrier data, I am consistently getting ~1.5MB/s download speeds! That's about 80% of my ISP speeds.
At this point I am about a week from the end of my billing cycle and I have used 16GB from tethering alone.
Is there any chance TMO will make noise about this in the future?
Tether.zip
I tried this on my T-Mobile HTC ONE M8 4.4.4 and now can't access my settings/ Keeps saying settings have stopped. Can i roll this zip back or do I have flash my rom. Really don't want have to reinstall everything.

Ok... I posted above recently that everything was working fine. And as far as data being able to be downloaded, I imagine it still is.
However, in the last 2 days, when I turn on "mobile network sharing", I get a Sense toast notification that I have too many connections to my hotspot.
But I only ever have one...I have never tethered to multiple devices. In fact, when I check under the mobile hotspot menu choice, it says "one user connected"....even if I have disconnected from, say, the laptop I was using.
In other words, as soon as I turn the mobile hotspot on, and connect one device, it states there are too many devices. If I disconnect (and wait 4 or 5 minutes), it still shows one user connected. One user too many apparently.
This has got to be another method of preventing data use.
Anyone have any ideas?
Viperone ROM tether help
Hello everyone,
I have the ViperoneM8 3.0.0 ROM installed on my phone, and I can't seem to edit my APN settings. The only thing I can edit is the fast.t-mobile.com name but nothing else. I installed APN Shortcut app, but when I clicked on it, it leads me back into stock settings again which is weird. Is there way to fix this?
Thanks
settings broken

i had the same issue after using tether.zip. deleted settings.odex from /system/app,and it is working for the last 2 months.
also, sunshine worked on my 4.4.4 tmo m8,and after altering apn under
'settings/mobile data/access point names/t-mobile data(fast.t-mobile.com)"
apn protocol and roaming protocol to ipv4, and saving(which s-off is needed for), i have used 27gb tethering in this cycle, and account shows zero tethering used!
SUCCESS!
That's great...

Hey Guys, for future reference, I have not noticed anyone ask yet, as I was searching around for this answer myself, but to enable unlimited tethering on a GPE 5.0 ROM, it's a combination of a few steps:
Use an SQLite editor to open the following database on your device "/data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db", select the "global" table, and then create the key "tether_dun_required" with the value of "0" (I have not tested this, but even without root, this is possible by issuing the command "settings put global tether_dun_required 0" over ADB.)
Change your APN settings to IPv4 instead of the usually default IPv6 or IPv4/IPv6.
Add the string "net.tethering.noprovisioning=true" to your build.prop file. (I have not tested this, but the tool here seems to do this automatically for you: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/themes-apps/app-hotspot-entitlement-bypass-v1-1-5-9-t2705152)
Reboot

I attempted to use this zip on my phone and now I can't access my settings menu at all, can you help me out?
how do i install this, android noobie
i rooted my phone
how do i flash this rom?
few questions
1. How do i flash it? in recovery mode?
2. do i need to erase my current flash on my phone?
3. do i need to back up my phone?
4. once i flash it do i need to reload my phone data? thanks
Editing the files with SQLite editor as said earlier in this thread leaves me with 3G only capabilities on the newest stock lollipop.
[/COLOR]Hey Guys,
I'm at my wits end... I updated my phone to Lollipop with the newest Insert Coin rom and no dice. I've edited the following...
created secondary APN, with default and added "dun"
modified tether_provision_dun = 0
modified secondary APN's to IPV4
edited default.xml
edited (net.tethering.noprovisioning=true) in build.prop
downloaded and installed Bypass Entitlement App
Used Wifi Tether router
Used FoxFi
NOTHING works for me. I continue to get the prompt that I should buy an additional plan from T-Mobile when connected to my network. Help Por favor
Why not use something like clockworkmod tether, easytether, pdanet?
So has anyone found a way to get this working with the newest OTA?
Is there a way to block tether usage with lollipop?
Hi all, has there been any new workarounds? Nothing seems to work.
Cheers!
Will this work on the M9? I'm S-off and boot loader unlocked. The phone is from at&t but with metro pcs service.
I use the latest Lineageos 17.1 version and everytime I restart, the system uses the wrong SIM-Card for mobile data-connection. It doesn't help to swap the cards – I tried it already. I know, you have the possibility to define, which SIM-Card should be used for calls, sms and yes, mobile Data. But it doesn't work. I activated in the Data-SIM-Card this option, but when I switch from WLAN to mobile, the system tries to use again the wrong card. Looking into the options of the Data-SIM-Card it is correctly activated for use. But it doesn't work. Even if I uncheck the other SIM-Card. I have to deactivated the data-SIM-Card and activate it again to make it work.
I had trouble with my phone because, it doesn't recognised the SIM-Cards, after a lot installation and deinstallation, I got new SIM-Cards which solved the problem. But I hadn't the problems with 17.1 before. And I have no idea, why.
Thanks for any inspiration to solve this inconvenience.
Thanks a lot.
