Note 2 still running on Android 4.1.2. using Wi-Fi Tether- TrevE Mod Version 3.2-beta2-modv5 ***Synergized***. I've been using this for over two years on a Sprint unlimited plan, never upgraded the app to any other versions simple because...it works fine as is.
I'm a HEAVY data user (stream music for 10-12hrs a day, 7 days a week at work, the same when I'm driving around, then tethered to my laptop/TV combo at night, more often.than not I shut off tethering when I'm not using it do my phone will charge faster overnight) and have never heard a peep from Sprint...until last week. Merry Christmas, here's a nasty gram from Sprint saying that they've noticed me tethering, which is against their rules and threatening to terminate service. I can get onto my soapbox all day long about the bull**** behind having an unlimited plan and then telling me how I can use it (BMW didn't call me and threaten to repo my car when I took my M5 onto a dirt road!), so how do I stop Sprint from seeing this? As I said, I'm a HEAVY user no matter what, it's not like my laptop is going to pull data any faster than my phone (all those bandwagoners saying it's hogging resources) because ultimately my Sprint connection is the bottle neck (read - constant buffering no matter what I use to watch movies, ie my Note or my laptop both require buffering to play smoothly), but nevertheless they're seeing something that's raised an eyebrow and caused them to waste .29 stamp on me.
What are my options to hide this from them?
