Still no solution to divert calls in GSM from this handset. Verizon has blocked called forwarding outside its network. Waiting for a solution. 4. Verizon has again blocked Mobile hotspot. 5. Other than the above 2 points, I face no other issues 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

josh596007 26 Report post Posted March 21, 2013 @avishek-Regarding Splash resistance. To my understanding Motos comes with a nano coating for their in boards (usually from P2i ( www.p2i.com ) which protect from normal spills .. IP7 refers to higher level of protection( under 1mm of water for > 30mts ).... Havent tested that though ... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sougatadc 358 Report post Posted March 23, 2013 Tethering is not possible. Sans rooting, I tried a lot of good rated tethering apps but all failed to tether via wifi/usb/bluetooth. It is because Verizon is doing business with it and when any one of these tethering is tried, it gets routed to subscription checking and eventually it fails. This problem seems to have been addressed by some XDA forum members successfully after rooting. Jellybean plays spoilsport here also, conference call is not possible, the person called first remains on hold even after call-merge. This is the first android handset I came across in which the primary google account can be deleted without resetting the phone. I deleted my google account and all the contacts vanished, but the call records remained there (now the names in the contacts against the numbers are not getting shown, obviously). With MTS, voice call overrides data session and when voice call starts, the '3G' icon vanishes. No simultaneous voice + data. Otherwise this is a very nice handset considering its display, built, screen size vis-a-vis overall size, internal user-usable memory, speed (default chrome browser behaves nicely), camera , location fixing and battery backup. The chisel-like shape is very attractive. And I liked the beautiful circle widget on the home screen. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kundalus 24 Report post Posted March 23, 2013 Root ur phone, install system app mover and convert stock WiFi app into data app. Then uninstall it. Download a WiFi tether app from market and u r good to go with tether.

Without tethering this handset is useless to me (whatever goodies it may possess) because I regularly use MTS's internet on my laptop through tether. Stock roms don't allow to tether. Thats the main issue. Follow the steps and u should b done. Will post the app that unused and was successful. At times the foxfi was not able to help with tether but that's purely dependent on stock Rom. Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
