So I bought an Atrix and gave my captivate to my wife after unlocking the sim (she's on T-Mobile).
For some reason the captivate wont find the wifi tether coming off of the Atrix. My PC picks it up, my iPhone picks it up, but the captivate wont find it. I'm using barnacle to tether. If anyone has any suggestions I would greatly appreciate it.

No offense but why do people want to take nice phones and gimp them on MetroPCS? The service is garbage. If you want prepaid, then get it flashed to PagePlus if anything (many times you don't even need to flash anything, it will just work after activating and programming OTA). There are a couple decent phones on Metro (LG Connect or LG Esteem, namely), it's easier (and probably cheaper) than getting a Verizon phone finally working on their network properly.

Well from previously working for MetroPCS, i can honesty say there are some area other carriers don't have any service in that metro does because they have their own towers, and if there in MetroPCS 3g coverage then i don't see how they would "gimp" there phone plus if they wanna pay 1/3 of there monthly price on Verizon i don't see why not..
An alternative people could use is unlocking there bionic and use a prepaid gsm carrier like simple mobile.

Simple Mobile is also pretty terrible (I am a Simple Mobile dealer myself). Does Metro even actually have 3G? I remember when their 4G LTE started (which from my testing is slower than Sprint's 3G coverage), they only had 1x and 4G, but no 3G.

Yea they've put 3g up almost everywhere they have coverage. They used to only have 1x which was terrible

Looking to USB tether to my windows pc. Before I rooted I used Klink by faveset, now that I'm rooted the Klink software on my pc will not recognize my phone to connect to.
My main goal is to usb tether with no extra costs from verizon. I do have an unlimited data plan.
All apps and software are up to date.

I use easy tether pro. Worth the $10. On Verizon, you have to get it from Amazon app market as the paid version was pulled from the market on Verizon phones. I like how Google only supports the openness when it benefits them or their partners. The fact that a tethering app gets pulled from one cell provider just proves that Android isn't as open as we would like.

I can't remember where I read it today but someone was saying that they don't charge you if you use the default USB tether that comes on the bionic, but do care if you hotspot...
Any ideas..?

Hi there. I am trying to install LG's On Screen Phone tool (Download here), and connect it to my Verizon LG G2 (VS980). I first saw this in DeamonFish's root guide tutorial here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=Y45SXPRb31o
It's what he used to show the phone screen on his PC. Basically a VNC setup made by LG.
In order for that software to connect you have to switch into "PC Software" mode under USB connection Mode. Check my attachment for what that looks like.
However, it seems Verizon doesn't have this option!
Can anyone confirm? and if so is this something that could possibly be remedied via a rom?
It would seem that internet connection Ethernet would allow you to vnc over network. Bit maybe not.

I have tried every single mode available including the Ethernet mode and still nothing
I talked to lg. Only the at&t and T-Mobile devices support this. Just another reason to get the hell off verizon....

Bummer, I just saw this feature now & am realizing its not going to work for Verizon...
I also would love to see this option with the VS980! I could understand that in stock ROM's that Verizon would block this or something but this is XDA we have OPTIONS! Currently running Cloudyflex 2.0 and loving it and would really like to see this feature ported over to these semi-custom LG ROM's.

II have some weird issues.. i tried factory restoring and it doesnt help.. the radio switches from LTE to 3G and i get weird issues during the transition and im not even able to disable LTE (that i know of) so I can just keep a steady 3g connection. Plus I get an error trying to send text via hangouts on LTE ONLY, and for some odd reason i cant upload photos on facebook. I have a feeling that the verizon stock rom deosnt work well with tmobile network. Im not rooted or anything just plain stock. Is there any rom or flashing I can do to basically transform my verizon moto x to work like a real tmobile phone? or some similar procedure to make things work more fluent?
If i cant do anything like this, ill probably just sign up for verizon prepaid but id like to stay with tmobile if possible.. thanks!
There's a thread in the Droid Ultra general section that should help you out.
