So, here's a way you can get FREE wifi tethering/mobile hotspot on your Droid Bionic so you don't have to pay Verizon twice for the same internet you are already paying for. I don't know why Verizon would block this feature especially when you consider that there's a 2GB cap on your mobile internet usage anyways.
<MOD EDIT>
We don't have a 2GB cap. I've been over 2GB's a month for almost a year without any issues.
we don't?

Two gig limit is for anyone that was not grandfatherd in. Data plans now have limits and different caps.

I am grandfathered in, Verizon throttles you once you reach 5gigs while on 3G, but they haven't been able to throttle 4G still, enjoy it while it lasts, I am at >3 gigs so far this month, and that is with no tethering!
im trying to do this but i have windows 7. for some reason the usb is not recognized by my comp... also do u have the latest readiocomm for me it says that mine is 2 month old

Use the Frodo exploit.
I am working with a dev to unlock the bootloader, donation will be automatically to the following charity:

The Bootloader is in fact locked.
If any devs need the following:

No problem, I am working on unlocking the bootloader currently, hope to have it done by this weekend if everything goes well.
Really appreciate this. No root has been driving me crazy. :banghead:

Worked for me too. Now I'm a happy camper with my newly rooted Note 10.1 4G/lte.

I spoke with their verizon's reps before buying their note 10.1 LTE and asked them if it can be used with other network providers and he said, " Yes, DEFINITELY, The note 10.1 LTE is GSM unlocked" To my great surprise when I received my note 10.1, I couldn't get it to work. Will there be a way to get this to work? They say it is unlocked but in reality it isn't. I need help because I really do not want to be on the verizon network because I have solavei that gives me unli 4g data already. Please help me. I dont mind paying someone to get this working for me, I just don't want to pay verizon's crazy fees just for data.

Awesome, I wish I could help but my coding skills are in their infancy at the moment. Anxiously awaiting the ability to use nandroid backup again and deodex'd roms. I assume deodex is what it would take to get the multiwindow complete control app to work on the 10.1?

Seriously though, like the other user asked... Do you have LTE in your area? If so, can you give comparisons of the device you had previously and the One now. Like what levels of RSRP are you seeing in places you frequent versus your previous device.

I am in the Twin Cities, MN, so I have LTE in various places. I won't be able to compare to my EVO because it's not active on my line, but I'll post speeds later tonight when I go through an LTE zone (thank you Micro Center for being perfectly placed...).
Testing now. I would like to go S-Off before I test, but I guess that can wait.

Is there any way to access the service mode menu? I wanted to see which LTE band my phone is on but none of the codes work with my nexus 6.
I'm looking for this too. Anyone?
nope, there no way. you can install the lte discovery app if you want to know which band your n6 is connected to.
Are you sure there aren't any?

Sorry...
I apologize for bringing this thread back from the dead but I figured it was worth noting that the USSD code *#*#873283#*#* works on T-Mobile although I have no idea what it actually does. Tired it on my phone and it responded with "check-in succeeded". I googled it and it apparently has something to do with Sprint, even though I'm on T-Mobile??? Strange.....
This icon (the smartphone shaped one, far left.) has been driving me mad trying to figure out what it is. I'm at a loss, hopefully someone here can help. Thanks!
This is on the US Unlocked model if that matters. I've never seen or had it before and I'd like it to go bye bye, haha.
