Actually the real name was AnthewaWiFi™ (And there was WiFi™)
This app can Enable / Disable your WiFi in just one Tap.
- Tap on the Application -- it enables your WiFi
- Tap on the Application again -- it disables your WiFi
Easy as that. It will automatically connect to any of your Known WiFi networks (the one in the lists in your WiFi settings)
The Background in the application is randomly chose from your Camera Roll pictures.
Interop were made possible with the big help and hardwork from fiinix in XDA-Developers with his thread here
requirements:
Unlocked WP7 device.
one issue:
-- The WiFi status does not reflect in Settings
future:
-- There will be no UI

That's cool!
Maybe can you implement a live tile that shows the actual status?
And also want something similar for bluetooth

Works Flawlessly. Is it possible to make live tiles based on connection names. Possibly you might like to give one more reason to users to use it over other shortcut apps

I like the idea of the app but sadly it´s not working on my OMNIA 7.
The wifi icon appears in the taskbar but the device doesn´t connect.

Same issue as above, icon appears but no connection.
HTC HD7 with latest updates.
Thanks ..

It would be super cool if this would work.
Hopefully it can be fixed.

I tried simulating your problems where it only enables your WiFi but does not connect
The only reason I found and I could think of is because ...
You don't have any known network in your list
like for example here

That´s not the reason because I tried it with my home-network.

when you connect manually (not using this app) does it connect automatically?

I also tried from my home network.
I found out following.
I start the app. The wlan icon appears but there is no animation. It is greyed out.
Then i got to settings --> wlan and here wlan was simply deactivated.
Maybe a hint.

like what I said in my first post
one issue is that the WiFi toggle bar in Settings is disabled although the WiFi is enabled and it should connect automatically when it has Known Networks.
So you said it does connect when you enable the WiFi manually in Settings, this means you do have Known Networks when you tap on "advanced" button?

Normally yes, but after using your app not. I have to softreset my device.
It looks like that the app breaks my wifi-connection.

run the app which will Enable the WiFi then goto Settings then tap the WiFi (grayed) toggle bar. It should open your WiFi connection list again.
anyway, I have to contact fiinix about his DLLImport
so for now
This does not work in HD7 and Omnia7 or probably because of your Custom ROMs

Hi
yes known networks are available. Also my home network.
If i trigger it manually it connects.
If i use the app it does not.
I also had to activate and deactivate wlan several time after using your app, like in comment from contable

For the OMNIA 7 don´t exist custom roms so far. I use a stock rom.

Hey guys, what WP device do you have?

As your app is based on the dll import project by fiinix it should work on all devices.
Is your device "full-unlocked" ?

[Q] Google Location Service not Working

Anyone having problems with Google Location Service?
This affects several apps that uses Location Service such as Google Now and Maps.
When i go into google now it says "Location service is off". When i go into maps it says "Please enable a My Location source in system settings" even though all of my location settings are on.
Only if GPS turned on then Google Now and Maps work properly

Under Settings > Location, there are several options:
1. Google's Location Service
2. GPS Sattelites
3. Location & Google Search
4. Compass warning
I turn on 1, 3, and 4. Option 2 (GPS) is only required if you want more precise location if I'm not mistaken. The problem is that previously I don't need to turn Option 2 on for my Maps to be working.

Weird, those are the options you would need on for maps to work. That's what I use and I just have tasker turn on GPS when I open maps, however it works regardless if GPS is on or off. Maybe trying clearing app data from maps?

Exactly, glad to know that the problem is not on my device. Yes GPS works, but it drains battery faster.
I'm thinking of factory reset, but afraid that my battery calibration will lost and words that my swiftkey has learned will be gone.
What's the best way to do the backup? I just did my backup from the built in HTC Backup function to Dropbox. But I'm not sure that everything will be restored if I use it. Will it restore all apps, apps settings, photos, and contacts?

with the unlimited plan at tmobile, they give you a max of 3gb for tethering(unless you buy more). do you have root or are you stock?

if you have root, theres an app called wifi tether router that when you use, tmobile doesnt know that you are tethering. theres also a system mod that changes some files thatll keep tmobile away as well.

Yeah I'd like to find out the way to use the stock hotspot and not have T-Mobile find out.

Nope turns out you have to modify the build prop as well. I took that last line out and rebooted and I lost tether again. Added it back just now and I got tether back.
So add dun in the APN type and add the no provisioning line to the end off the build prop.

Thanks, Hopefully I can get this to work on my Nexus 6 for T-Mobile.

1a. Use a VPN on connected devices. 1b. Search xda for an app called dnsqache, and follow the github readme on how to set it up, I will warn you though that your MMS messages might not transmit if you do not have dns2 set as what you get when you run the terminal command "getprop net.dns2" and use a browser with a user agent switcher set to your browser except showing a Linux OS

I've added the net.provision whatever and added ,dun to APN type. Running euphoria and my tethering is working fine
Most important is the build.prop change and adding ,dun to APN type. Then you shouldn't have any problems

So I'm currently having issues trying to enable Wifi tether as well.

I was able to work around the issue by modifying the following sqlite database (you'll need root):
/data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db
You need to add a new entry to the global table called "tether_dun_required" with a value of 0.
It looks like you need to do this because some configuration data was added to Android for T-mobile that forwards tethered data to this APN: pcweb.tmobile.com
T-mobile is probably checking to see if your account has tethering enabled when you go through this APN.
After I made this change I also needed to change my APN settings so that it uses ipv4 instead of ipv6. It seems like tethering with ipv6 does not work 100% yet.

That's correct I used SQLite editor because I'm lazy sometimes and its easy when you flash a fresh ROM. I have a screenshot below of what it looks like.
I also added " ,dun " to the end of my APN type in the APN settings. No issues so far.

Unlimited hotspot tethering on sprint samsung galaxy s7

A alternate way of unlocking your hotspot on your galaxys7 without the need of root:good:
You are going to need the MSL code for you phone
Which can be obtained by calling customer service and asking them (this is the way i did it) or just go to you nearest sprint shop and ask them for the code.
(If they ask why you want the code, just say its for your personal info or interest)
Once you have your code, go to your phone dialer and dial the following: ##3282#
Than you will prompted to write your MSL code
After typing your code, you will be presented to a menu, on that menu you are going to search for "APN SETTINGS" than you are going to search for APN2 EHRPD Internet APN2 LTE internet, and on both you are going to search for the following: "default,mms"
And once you found the "default,mms", you are going to edit it to : default,mms,dun (just add: ",dun" at the end).
Once you have finished editing, just reboot your phone
And you just unlocked unlimited hotspot and tethering

Really thats wierd , because yesterday i called customer service for my msl, and than i proceeded to unlock the hotspot without no problem.
Also before i did recieve my msl code, i did try to unlock the hotspot feature just using SHORTCUT MASTER, but couldn't becuase it was grayedout and unable to be interactive.
But when i tryed using the methods that sprint technicians use (the msl code method) i was able to unlock the feature.

A alternate way of unlocking your hotspot on your galaxys7 without the need of root:good:
You are going to need the MSL code for you phone
Which can be obtained by calling customer service and asking them (this is the way i did it) or just go to you nearest sprint shop and ask them for the code.
(If they ask why you want the code, just say its for your personal info or interest)
Once you have your code, go to your phone dialer and dial the following: ##3282#
Than you will prompted to write your MSL code
After typing your code, you will be presented to a menu, on that menu you are going to search for "APN SETTINGS" than you are going to search for APN2 EHRPD Internet APN2 LTE internet, and on both you are going to search for the following: "default,mms"
And once you found the "default,mms", you are going to edit it to : default,mms,dun (just add: ",dun" at the end).
Once you have finished editing, just reboot your phone
And you just unlocked unlimited hotspot and tethering

Here is the screenshot

Well **** didn't know that. What version are you running with U firmware

PG1 ..most recent

Shortcutmaster is easy, just type "Apn" in th he search engine, than look in the options that it provides you, tap on the apn option that end in the word settings ( ex. Apn................settings). And than you will be prompted to press " launch" (it a menu bar that says: launch,home,ect.) After that its the same procedure as if using a msl code
The only down fall to this, is that you need root for it to work ( to ungray the options need to fix). The things needed to unlock the apn's grayed.
But if it works for you without encountering any problems just share the info with others

Even the msl code method is showing up to some people grayed.
I tryed using both method on my fathers s7, and i encounterd this issue.
My guess is that it has to be with something with the build or serial number or some thing distinguish them from each other. Cuz for some it both methods work, but for others they need root to acomplish this.

Yo its true what you where saying about the apns being grayed out.
My guess is that its not in all samsung s7.

That's apparently sprint catching wind and doing something. Glad I don't take updates with new phones like that

APN Settings ghosted/grayed?

I'm trying to change my APN settings on my phone and the settings are ghosted/grayed out and will not allow me to change anything. Also new APN will not save.
Anybody know how to fix this?
Btw... I'm on stock ROM rooted with Franco kernel and T-Mobile is my carrier. Previous phone was a never 5x with same SIM. No problems.

Having the same problem here. T-Mobile support is asking me to change APN settings to troubleshoot network speed, but I'm unable to do so.

Yeah, the default APNs are all grayed out but you can add APN for sure, I did it and it sticks too. see attachment.
When I inserted SIM card, the default APNis the one on top GPRS, I found data speed is slow. So I added one which is US LTE one.

Thanks Lancez. I also tried adding a new one. I tapped save in the menu, but it did not get added to the list. I wonder if it's a bug in the particular build we're on. I'm currently running ONEPLUS A3000_28_170208.

I'm on the latest 4.0.3 build, should be same one as yours.
You can try to restore default APN from drop down menu then add new APN

I had also tried to restore default, but it didn't help.
I did just manage to get it to work. I added a new APN with the name "test" and was able to save. I was then able to go in and edit it to match the settings t-mobile had suggested to me.
Unfortunately the new settings did not help with my speed issue.
Thanks again for the help Lancez.

There's another thing, after you edited your APN, go to phone app and dial *#*#4636#*#* > phone info > from the first drop down menu choose LTE/UMTS auto (PRL) > back out of settings > reboot, you should be able to get much better data speed.
And from SIM & network settings, there's Prederred network type, don't select anything in there, leave them all blank. otherwise above settings will be reverted back.
What APN settings did T-mo CS told you? care to share with us? it'll save us sometime over the phone.
Oh, I'd appreciate If you can click on the thanks button below my name

Argh, I am a dummy. I tried scrolling down, but not up. Thanks again.
I changed the setting, but my speed is still about the same.
T-mobile is now telling me that they are making improvements in my area that should resolve this in the future. Though don't know if they were just saying that to get rid of me. I've gone from what used to be 50+Mbps in November to between 1 and 5 Mbps now.

That's not good, I tested my settings last night and I got close to 70mb and 36mb just now. I have the same APN settings as yours. I'm in LA area tho.

I also have two different phones on the account. Which are both getting similar speed results. So seems likely it's got to either be an account or network issue. Though I figured it couldn't hurt to play along and try the updated APN settings to further rule it out.
