Yeah but when you have a USB ethernet dongle USB tethering is greyed out.

Yeah. Unfortunately the USB cannot be used to share a mobile connection. When I have the ethernet dongle plugged into the phone, usb tether stays greyed out. When I connect it to the WAN 2 port, the ethernet option stays greyed out. But I connect it to an open port the ethernet option becomes...

I have a trendnet TEW-829DRU. I know it's overkill for a home network. https://www.trendnet.com/products/business-router/ac3000-tri-band-wireless-gigabit-dual-wan-vpn-smb-router-TEW-829DRU

Hi, Does anyone know if you can share mobile data via usb c ethernet? I have a router that has 2 wan ports and would like to set up the note 10 + 5g as a failover connection. I have the tmobile version. I plug it into my router and the activity lights light up, but no data is being received...

Yeah, VoLTE works but not VoWifi. Even when manually adding the option to turn VoWifi on, it doesn't work. I get crap service in my house but great service outside my house. I asked tech support about Wifi Calling and if it was provisioned on my account, but I was told if the phone can do...

Okay thanks. I haven't found an app, but I'll keep looking.

Hi everyone, I had to buy a second sim due to Verizon gives me a very flaky signal in my home. It will say I have VoLTE then when I try to call or send a text it immediately goes to no service. I spoke to tech support and they will be sending me a network extender 2 for free, but says they are...

Try holding power+up vol + down vol all at the same time. This will force the phone to boot. My Z5 premium randomly will either freeze where there is no response to any thing screen, buttons etc, or it will just power down and will not turn back on. that's when i know I have to hold those three...

I ordered mine on the 18th, and it's out for delivery today. UPS always comes between 6:30 pm and 7:00 pm here for me. :(

I just got my tracking number and an email from tmo saying it was shipped. Estimated date is tomorrow!

Yeah, it limits video to 480p. When watching YouTube, anything above 480p buffered like crazy. Same with Netflix and hulu. So if you want to watch unlimited videos without using your data turn on binge on, bit just know you will be restricted to 480p or less. Otherwise turn it off. I'm on...

I have the Z5 Premium Dual on t-mobile. Is this just with video or all Internet applications? I had issues with video unable to play anything above 480p. It turned out that tmob had flipped on the binge on video service. Once I turned that off my videos were able to stream properly. All my other...

The back camera is great and the front camera is fine. I rarely use the front camera on any of my phones. Battery life is okay. I get about 3-5 hours out of it. Keep in mind I normally have the brightness up pretty high (75 %- 80%) and I am a super heavy user. I am constantly steaming...

I went for the chrome version. It just looks very premium over the other two colors. The gold just looks hideous. But that's just my opinion.

I have the Z5 Premium Dual. From all the tech specs I read, it's the only one that has the AWS bands on both the LTE and 3G/3.5G (Umts) frequency. If you don't care about the Umts band then you can get any Z5 Premium variant. The model I specifically have is E6883.

Wow that's a huge difference!

Hello I was wondering what will be lost if I unlock the bootloader? I know in the past you lose the DRM keys so you can't use some of the sony proprietary enhancements. Is that the same with the Z5 line as well? Thanks

I have the z5 premium dual and it says LTE. I'm on tmobile here in the US.

Its just crazy the note 3 & 4 stream without buffering. I may do a full factory reset to see if it fixes the issue.

I am using cellular data. I have unlimited lte data with no throttling. I used my note 3 and it doesnt have any issues streaming video. I also had my wife test her note 4 and it streams fine. Weird thing is if I tether to a pc it streams without issues.

Hello, I have the Xperia z5 premium dual and when ever I watch any video it buffers reallybad. I tried the YouTube app and trying to stream any HD (720 or better) buffers every 3 or 4 seconds. I'm using it on t-mobile USA. I do speed tests and they all come back 25-33 maps down and 15 - 25 up...

I'm wondering the same thing.

Hello everyone, I searched but couldn't find an answer. Is there a way to remove the 10 minute idle limit when connected via USB 3.0? I would prefer to just have an always on USB 3.0 when connected to a USB 3.0 port. Thanks in advance.

If you don't need any touchwiz stuff try slimkat ROM. I can tether without any limits, VPN, or UA spoofing. Tether to my surface laptop and my desktops and tablets without any issues.

If you are referring to stock android I would recommend slimkat. I can use tethering without having to use any agent switching or VPN service. I tether to my surface pro 3 all day and never have any issues and my hotspot usage is still showing 0 hotspot used. Been using it for about 4 or 5...

Looks like the product code is 059V6X0.

I would like to see a forum for nokia Lumia 1520.

It's the 1520 RM-938. Has native AWS. It's a super rare variant to find. It also has pentaband LTE and WCDMA. Here's a picture of the bands from the box:

It's actually fetch if you use the default email client on non Microsoft accounts. It only allows push on Microsoft accounts (.msn,.live,.hotmail,.outlook). For those accounts you have the option to receive mail as they arrive. But when you set up Gmail you have to select intervals and the...

This just a poll to see how many people were able to get hold of the Lumia 1520 that supports the AWS band making it fully compatible with T-Mobile. Count me in as one!

I had the note 3 when it first came out for T-Mobile. I actually had every major galaxy phone S1, s2, s3, sIV,(I will be skipping S V, 1 because it didn't impress me, and 2 I'm so bored with Samsung phones), Note 2 and Note3, along with some HTC android phones and some Sony android phones. I...

Oh forgot to mention the version on new egg is 32GB and has the QI charging system instead of the at&t mess they put in there.

Hi there are a few different global version the RM 938 has the all the bands for US carriers and most international places. It's a rare one to find though. New egg has it. Do a search for 1520.3. Not sure how long they will last as the yellow has already sold out. They have just the black and...

Check out new egg. Do search for 1520.3. It is the unlocked international version that has AWS band. They only have the all black and the white left. Yellow version is gone. Here is a pick of the bands that is printed on the box.

I ordered an unlock code from here on ebay: Unlock code Was only $24.69 and got the code in about 7 days. Oh yeah I have a US T-Mobile xperia Z.

Since the international version supports all bands better to buy it than the specific tmo version unless you need wifi calling. Sent from my C6603 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

I guess you are one of the lucky one's. Numbers dont lie. Like I said look in the note 2 &3 forums at all the tethering threads. The majority of people cannot tether to their laptops and pcs without spoofing otherwise they get the upsale page. I myself tried all the "fixes" and it works for a...

Not sure if you have 4G unlimited or not, but I do. On the unlimited 4g (not capped 4g then Edge afterwards) they will not let you go past the 2.5 GB hotspot usage. If you have a limit of highspeed data then you have to spoof or vpn. Look at all the threads in the note 2 and note 3 threads about...

Yes you can use usb mode and hide tether usage but if you use wifi mode tmobile will be able to tell. There is no way to hide it without vpn or browser spoofing if you use wifi tethering. Sent from my SM-N900T using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

From what I have seen tmo will still see it as tethering. You can try to spoof your browser to be seen as an android device, but that kinda defeats the issue as website will revert to their mobile counter part. But then again sk e people have had success with the spoofing of browsers. Your other...

Apparently people do. Just search on xda for phone stop working or phone doesnt get service after working for a few months (there were a lot of threads like that in the tmo note 2 forum). Many said tmo wont unblock it until the original owner pays it off. They wont even allow you to pay it off...

Tmo will block the phone until the bill is paid in full. So if they never pay the bill with the phone balance due the phone bought will not work. And now tmo and att share a blcklist so cant use it on att network either. Also as stated even after the sale some people report the phone as lost or...

Meet in a Tmobile store and have the seller have the tmobile rep look at their account and verify the phone is not on an equipment installment plan and the imei is not reported as lost or stolen. Also get a signed recepiet (with both parties printed name and the description of the item sold)from...

I used this site http://www.unlockunit.com/ T-Mobile wouldn't give me a lock code. They said I had to wait 30 days. Sent from my SM-N900T using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

Yep I tried their site and worked like a charm. correct urlMod Edit

Hello everyone. I added a new line and picked up a note 3 and I noticed the sim card has ISIS on the back of it. Is does this mean NFC payments can be made with the sim card. If so think I should get a new one for my other phone? Here is a pic:

Today was the day. I just picked mine up a few hours ago. Now I'm debating if I want to root or not. Not sure if I would use knox.

Ok. Cool. Thanks Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF300T using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

I thought t h e release date for T-Mobile was 10/02. I asked a T-Mobile corporate store about them getting it in tomorrow and was told the release date is 10/04. He said the reports gave the wrong date. Anyone else heard of this? Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF300T using XDA Premium 4...
