I can confirm that the above method works but you have to change SSID every time Hotspot is turned on. Not a big deal just a nuisance, I'm sure the smart genius's here will come up with a permanent solution :victory:

Good looks, thanks!

[APP]LightXT

Alright guys here it is. LightXT its pretty self explanatory. This does require you to be rooted. This is V.1 so there might be bugs but I haven't found any so you should be fine. This has only been tested on US XT720 running Khalpowers miui themed V3 but technically it should work on all models of this phone with the auto focus led.
Disclaimer: I am not held responsible for any harm this app may cause your phone or your LED light.
If you like this App please dont forget to hit the thanks button.
*****THIS APP DOES NOT TURN YOUR XENON FLASH ON IT TURNS ON YOUR AUTO FOCUS LIGHT***** sorry for the confusion
First!!!
Works great but i found a bug.
If you turn on the light and then rotate the screen you have to click 2 times to turn it off again...
But still awesome thanks!!!!
thanks. is the light supposed to be red? that's all Im getting
Yes its our auto focus light. Our actual flash is xenon which requires a charge to flash that's why no other flashlight app works so we created this one specific to our phone.
its amazing, thx! =))
this is amazing! thank you... thank you... thank you...
Thanks alot man! My buddy has been dying for this app and it works great. Any plans for a widget??
Just thought of something.
Could this somehow be integrated into say Khal's rom and set for use on media key?
That would be sick, probably just wishful thinking though.
I hear a cry off in the distance....
Widget...Widget.....WIDGET!!!!

I'm trying to convince him into making us a widget it shouldn't be a problem. And there will be a version with the rotate bug fixed uploaded soon. Can't give an exact time but ill update the first post when its in my hands.
Just Great...this can help me...Thanks
until a build in widget is added, the next best thing as a work around is to use
Widgetsoid2.x to create a widget shortcut https://market.android.com/details?id=com.jim2&feature=search_result

yup thats the only one that turns on our flash is a xenox so we can not just turn it on and off. thats why when you download a led flashlight app from the market ie. droidlight it does nothing. the apps are looking in the wrong place for the led to turn on and thats why we made this app ts made only for our phone and all other variants of this phone.
i feel like i wrote that before.

[Q] NooB Question - Rom Selection Necessary???

Hey Everyone,
Sorry for this odd question but I am new to the community, I am thinking of purchasing the Thunderbolt because I can get the unlimited data. I want to root the device so I can use Wireless Tether or something like it to use my PC or as a hotspot (like the built in app). Do I have to load a custom ROM to do that after I go through the Root process?
What is everyone using for the Wireless Tether that works well. I am tired of Starbucks Crappy WiFi
Thanks in Advance and sorry if this is the wrong forum!!!
No rom required for that...just S-OFF and an app d/l!

actually you wouldn't even need to root. You can use the mobile hotspot. Just tell the rep when you buy the tbolt to sign you up for free. Theres a promo going until may 14ish that enables new tbolt buyers to get mobile hotspot for free.
App d/l?
Which app would everyone use and the s-off is part of the root process correct?

again you don't need an app. It's built into the settings. But if you want to go the hard way just search tether after you root. If you're only rooting for tethering thats kind of a weak reason. But to each his own.

Mojo I would assume that after the 14th Verizon will try to tack on the 20.00 per month charge to use their hotspot and it's only free as a demo, kind of like the drug dealer who gives out crack samples to people???

Is that how they're doing it? The rep told me i'd have it until I changed my contract ie upgrade or decide to remove hotspot. If thats the case then def get the app instead.

I think getting wireless tether is like the "gateway app". Haha. That was the main reason I decided to root when I got an Incredible last year. Then I found a whole new world of possibilities and my desires changed. If you search the market you will find software for wireless tether, as mojonation1487 said. However, like (s)he also said, Hotspot is free until May 14th so you might want to try that before you hassle with rooting/modding. But I am willing to bet that after you play around with the phone and the options you have once rooted, you will end up flashing roms/mods. Enjoy the Tbolt!
Edit: (these posts add up fast) - I was told that I have to call on the 14th to remove Hopstop unless i want to be charged the $20/month....

I feel like its worth mentioning that the Mobile Hotspot app itself actually states that the service is free for a limited time. A dialog box pops up with this message when you turn on the service.

Depends what you like. I like MIUI so I am waiting for that. I would say try and few and see what you like. Just take the extra 2 minutes each time and back up so you can revert back if you don't like it.

bamf 1.5 remix is sicktight until cm7 is at least at a release candidate state. Then I would definitely recommend that.
i have liked bamf 1.5 remix and tesla coil. BAMF still hase sense but tesla coil gives you a small taste of stock android.
try storm to start with - its the fastest rom around and i have tried them all. Chingy, the dev, was famous in the inc community for making stock roms go like rockets - goes well with lte speeds.
also this is not a dev thread. OP, please request the mods to move it to General or Q&A section

I talked to a rep today and it sounds like the phone itself is not limited to usage on 4G, but you're limited to 2GB when using VZW's hotspot app (for the $20 a month). Does this sounds like what everyone else gathered? If this is true, then perhaps using wireless tether other than VZW would have the added benefit of the phone's "unlimited" plan.

kernel with 2-way call recording patch ?

Figured it was about time to ask about this...
Is anyone working on this or is everyone waiting for the new kernel source to drop?

It does need to be patched otherwise you can only use the API which will record via the mic.

Can anyone provide any updated status about the 2 way call recording options for this unit? I am upgrading from an EVO 4g to this "LTE" model and use this feature very often with reports that I conduct. My 4g uses CALLRECORDER and it works perfect from play.google.com and it's fully automatic so I don't have to fiddle with the buttons the calls are all recorded and I can simply download them from the SD card as needed.
would love to have any input now so I can start getting things lined up for this when the phone arrives.
Thanks,
Bill

[App] New Camera From The Google Experience Phones

So i took the APK from this thread and made it work for our device. this will only work on AOSP roms that have a CM10.1 base. If you would like to try it, go ahead and flash in recovery. Please have a nandroid just in case, each phone is different and although it works for some it might not work for all.
THIS WILL NOT FIX ANY EXISTING PROBLEMS THAT THE CAMERA HAS, ITS JUST THE NEW UI .
NEW GE 4.2.2 camera Flash in recovery.
OLD CM10.1 camera Flash in recovery.
I will try my best to help anyone out that needs it. feel free to comment here or PM me. :victory:

i think i can get photosphere working if you would like to try it. i did it for the rezound before. it requires a 3lib files to turn it on. ^_^
Edit:
going to be a little harder than i thought. i can get it to turn on. but when i move the phone around it FC. Going to have to do a log cat and figure what is what.
Edit2:
Got the full dump, even better to work with.

yeah i kinda of figured as much when the FC was calling for it but i was able to use the tilt sensor to do it. But the phone now crashes when stitching the photos.
im trying to get help on it now but progress has been slow, just moved into a new house and still setting everything up.
so what's the new ui look like - can some post / link a screen shot? is this it....

after reading the original thread it seems safe to install this as it will not overwrite the stock camera app / gallery. can anyone confirm that on our phone?
thanks for the work to to port this over for our use!!!

Hotspot Hack

Hi. I'm considering to purchase the V30. I usually root all my phones so its a bit disappointing I won't be able to do so on this phone (at least for now). However, I'm wondering is there's a way to have hotspot hack without root?? Thanks and sorry if it's already been discussed...

He's asking for a way to enable hotspot on the phone without the carrier giving permission/charging more money for using your mobile data as you please.
All custom ROMs have that feature enabled.
I'm going to go with no on this one. If it was found to work the carrier would shut it down in a heartbeat.

Hello,
In short.. Hotspot works with no root.
Please read through the post below starting at post # 16..
https://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-g6/help/activated-sprint-ls993-mind-testing-t3598048/page2
This method worked for my LG-G5,G6 and V30+.. Keep in mind read your carries trems and conditions.. doing this hotspot hack can in some cases get you booted out of your contract .
Also i ,we, them are not responsible for any side effect , problems this method might,might not cause you or your device,
I haven't had the need in a couple years but I use to use pdanet to hide my teher usage on tmobile. Doesn't work for with tether but worked like a charm in USB mode (never tried bluetooth)
Edit: I think its free to try and the key was a couple of bucks years ago
Edit 2: and yes it works (or did last I needed it) without root

On Moto Quark with custom ROMs, I'm pretty sure T-Mobile customers have hot spot. I haven't heard any complaints.
I know I have it on AT&T. I also KNOW the custom ROM hotspot works on Verizon unlimited because many, many people have commented on it.
Quark (Droid Turbo XT1254, U.S. Moto Maxx XT1250, Moto Turbo XT1225, Moto Maxx XT1225) was the "reasonable" sized Moto Nexus 6 (Shamu). Not official NEXUS but same manufacturer, 90% same specs, bigger battery.
This is from June 2017. He's using T-mobile Hot Spot on two different ROMs and saying one is FASTER than the other. But they both work.
johnbravado said:
@bhb27 so I did run the same download from same location using 2 separate phone. Phone A is droid turbo with RR and phone B is Droid turbo with CF stock (custom ROM). Downloading same app on tablet first with using phone A hotspot took 6 minutes to download. Switched to phone B hotspot and it took 30 seconds to download. Switched back to phone A hotspot and again, 6 minutes download. Went back to phone B and again 30 seconds. Went to download mumble .exe file from website and same results. There is clearly something with RR. I am going to try clean install with latest update.
Did clean install on the phone. Latest rev, latest kernel, latest gapps. Still ridiculously slow hotspot speed when using this phone.
Just as added info. Mind you both phones are operating exactly the same only difference is ROM. I am using droid turbo on T-Mobile network. But I set up APN and everything so it works and other phone is setup exactly same except CF made a T-Mobile variant whatever that is. Could whatever he did be making the hotspot work better using the T-Mobile line than RR? Time to go and install everything again

Most carriers include hotspot in the US. They just limit it because people abuse it if they don't.
PDA.net does work fine, but you can't use the wifi option - Nougat killed it and they said they wouldn't be working to update it. You're stuck using USB tethering which is fine if you only want to use it for a laptop or something. But otherwise, you're kind of stuck, waiting for a ROM to come out.
