This is just an update to HTC Sync which allows loading 3rd party apps from the desktop. Anyone want to try out the Mobile Network sharing feature and report back?
HTC SYNC UPDATE FOR HTC ARIA™ (AT&T) (3.0.5372) | 07.09.2010
Update link at HTC
The article was update it does not enable wifi tethering.
I saw a glimmer of hope for 30 seconds.

I'm wonder how long at&t is gonna let htc do this before they pull the plug on this, lol.
Can someone who updated htc sync upload the update file please? It did actually allow 3rd party sideloading which is awesome and since htc has now removed the update from their website, I would love to have the file.
Thanks

Alrighty well I'm running a custom ROM (Baked Snacks v1.3 to be exact) and I'm loving it, though, I failed to notice that Sprint Apps were removed, which is fine, I don't care about most of them, but I use Sprint-Zone ALOT.
Anyway to flash it in, or an APK or something? Would like to continue running on BSv1.3 and have Sprint Zone. Any help is appreciated, thanks.
Nobody? :/

Help any? I don't have it anymore to see if its still valid.
I notice that sprint zone gives you a link to your accounts information. It seems to just open up your web browser. Maybe just bookmark to the link(to sprints mobile site) for quick access.
Thunder, you are a life saver! lol. Thank you. Wouldnt happen to have a link for the newest version of Sprint TV too would ya?

Not if you have a sat nav app with preloaded maps...
This GPS talk is one of the reasons I went with the 3G/4G version. It is nice to be able to get mapping, restaurant locations, gas stations, hospitals, and all the other on the fly data. Not to say you can't download a map its just nice not having too. Its just at your finger tips. None of this has anything to do with the OP question so sorry OP..
any good ones to recommend? i cant find any maybe im using wrong keywords or im just bad at searching.......
You can pre-cache maps in Google Maps. Just make your route while you are connected to wifi and it will save it. It stays in the cache for a long time as far as i can tell.

I use google nav on xoom....which I find to be much better than using tomtom on my iphone...although tomtom was more customisable and worked seamlessly with any music app which is the only thing I miss.....but here is a site i found helpful....breaks down all your options with pros and cons....I'm guessing tomtom/I go/garmin don't want to fuss with making an overpriced turn by turn navigation app for us android users when we get a pretty damb good one for free....

thats because of CDMA limitations. GSM networks do data+voice simultaneously.
Wifi From Wife's Phone
@wildfan2k
Make sure your wife's phone supports infrastructure mode or is a Droid. Xoom does not like to tether with most Rooted Wifi options. Droid on the other hand can offer bluetooth tethering that Xoom does recognize.
Google navigation works awesome!

So how's the 11/24 build working out for people? I keep wanting to flash it but I've been using 4G alot lately. I don't care much about video recording and as for video playback I always use mx player anyways. Feedback?

Other than not being ble to call 911 if needed it is my daily driver. Love it so far. There seems to be a bug with ringtones that I have noticed so I just don't use the digital ringer. WiFi is pretty stable, but no reboots, lock ups, or much of anything else other than things listed.

No.
The way things were before I stopped using it, you can either have WiFi broken, or 3G broken. You cannot have both working, and have the phone change between the two of them.
Battery life is horrible with it. 50% worse than touchwiz roms.
It is really not worth using until it is ready, and it is not near that level yet.

Neither 3g nor wifi are "broken" -- and the battery life is based on how much of an idiot you are.

Classy.
On 10-22, WiFi would cut out every now and then.
After updating to 11-24, WiFi no longer worked, period. There was a fix zip posted in the thread, which fixed WiFi, but broke 3G.
I reflashed to touchwiz at that point, as it was clear that CM7 was not going to work for me at its current stage.
Using touchwiz, I get 2 days of battery life.
I got around 28 hours with CM7.

And to think I wondered why there is so much drama in this developer community.
I have a problem logging into my goggle account. I had it set up fine when I came to cm7 (1122 build) from Acs Ics 4, as it prompted me after a clean install to login. I have since flashed the modified wifi 1122 build over the original 1122 and advance restored Data. I have now lost my goggle account login.
When I try to open the market it asks me if I want to login, yes or no. Whichever I select it takes me back to my homescreen.
So I go to settings, account & sync, add account: it only let's me create an exchange account (not sure if this is normal). I have entered my gmail account info, but it will not accept it and login. It asks for the domain and server... not sure if I can access my google account that way or not.
I don't really want to have to do a clean install every time a new build comes out and then reinstall all my apps. Doing an advanced restore to get data back in CWM is so much quicker and easier. Is there another option or remedy to this?
Any help is appreciated.

I've been using the app called Foxfi from the play store which has been working great for me and that's without root! There is a free version that limits the amount of time you can use it or a paid version for like 7 bucks. A little costly but I've been happy so far. Only thing is once u go into the Foxfi app and turn on mobile hot spot u will get a pop up about needing to set up through verizon, DO NOT hit cancel, instead just push your home button and wha la!! You have working mobile hotspot! Hope this helps.

Thanks for the reply! I'll try that for the time being... Although I'd like to see if there's a way to use the Built-In Verizon WiFi Tether app, as it's quite stable... Maybe I'll try android-wifi-tether too...

Just press the home button and it will go away while leaving tethering on... As long as you have used the widget or toggle to turn it on.

Not sure. But I noticed something in SQLite.
Settings storage
settings.db
Global
51 Wifi_watchdog_on 1
I'm thinking - hoping- that that is the entitlement/subscription check. Anyone willing to find out?
Changed it to 0... Still getting Use of this service requires a subscription...
I think the Wifi Watchdog setting is to alert you when a WiFi network is in range....
I've just been using the notifications panel toggle hack, then pressing the Home button when the error comes up: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2482867
Would be great to get rid of the notification though

Thanks for the heads up and trying it out. I'd change it back to 1, though. I did some searching and it seems that watchdog is a security measure to try and keep hackers from accessing your phone through wifi. So either what you were thinking is right or the info I have found is. But I'm no expert. So I don't know which it is. Lol. Either case is seems cruicial or important. So probably best to not mess with that.
I have the toggle going, also. I just figured it was worth a shot, at least. I just get a little annoyed having to press the Home button every time. But at least we have tether. I can deal with that until such time that they figure it out.
Thanks again for trying that!
I have actually investigated this a bit, and like new devices, the check is now built in Framework-res.apk. You need to decompile, edit the lines that call the command to check for subscription, and recompile. I have tried quite a few times but could never get the signing right and replace the file on the device without a bootloop, so I gave up. I think I have more specific information on like the 2nd page of the we have root thread.

It had been made into a flash able zip in safestrap, check the Original Development section. The instructions for the actual changes in Framework-res.apk are also stated there, they are the same as what I would have done.
