Modems? - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

OK so you got yourself a noob here and may I say what a site very informative and the people despite dealing with noons alarmingly often are always helpful and polite. To my query. I wanna know about modems. I need a degree in em if you will. Say I want 4g internet on my 3g phone is it possible and how complicated is it? I've read a little about them here but not enough. Would there be a place I could find out which modems work best in my area and which of those would support 4g? As I sit in my wood sided house my signal strength is -105. If it helps any I'm running helly bean and it is like gliding on ice its so smooth compared to 2.3.5. So I'm not stranger to flashing. Could someone please help me understand these thing to better enjoy this cappy until next June when I'm available for an upgrade.

There is a Modem stickied thread in the Development forum.
And it is a No on the 4g. Captivate doesn't have the hardware for it.

Whats your next phone going to be?

I've tried the atrix and inspire and was less than happy with either if them.
I'm that guy that has to have the newest of the new. I hate being like that but until I seek mental help I will remain a lost cause.
Im waiting for the infuse to come out and will give it a try and if it's not to my liking I will wait longer for the sgs2 to arrive.
I wish companies would give tentative dates as to releases on these devices like samsung did with their new galaxy tabs. I was actually going to buy a xoom wifi until I saw samsung was releasing the new tabs in june.
Sorry for straying off course, yet another one of my many issues, a.d.d

Apology accepted but only if you accept my apology as well. I talk about people being rude and then read my own post and realized how rude it was.
Sorry

facebook hated more than at&t

So I found this interesting link:
http://www.businessinsider.com/most-hated-companies-america-2011-6?op=1
I know this whole at&t-t-mobile merger is old news, but every at&t hater seemed to crawl out from the darkest corners to voice their opinion of at&t and now so many were going to switch off because they didn't want to belong to at&ts customer base.
It's worth remembering that other companies are hated worse... Like facebook apparently.
I hate Facebook my wife is hooked to it and she doesn't give me time.

You could just change the hosts file on her / your PC so it blocks Facebook completely.
Same with her phone if its rooted/jailbroken/WP7Hacked.

But she will know something is fishy. Phone is not a problem (she has Nokia). Only 2 laptops and a PC. Internet through wifi SMC router. (I have access to it). Let the mission begin.

Lol I had a buddy who led his entire facebook life through texting. he would borrow one of our interwebs (he had a laptop, and would visit) whenever he wanted to specifically see something, but yeah. Phone does matter XD.
Also, my thread may have promoted questionably legal activities. Awesome XD

Is anyone working on a rom for this.

I'm using thriller currently but the Dev for it no longer has a thrill.
Sent from my LG-P925 using XDA Premium App
It appears that in the "Development" Section that there are a couple new ROMs available, still waiting on my personal favorite Cyanogenmod to become available for the Optimus 3D (which is the sister phone for the Thrill)
What rom would anyone suggest I use
I mainly want 3d converter tethering mms and 4g
If I could post in the development section I would ask the starters of the threads if they are still working on them

Well you will be hard pressed to get all that, you want converter you will have to install o3d rom but, you will lose 4g and have to setup apn for mms, someone is working on getting all that fixed up right now. Converter only works with I think v10j and v10k based roms, all thriller are v10e. J and K versions are O3D only. All custom roms come with tethering
