I'm sure it's possible to have a data speed meter for connections?

Speed test app?

AT&T Drive Mode

Have anyone had problems with AT&T Drive Mode draining the battery, if so what steps did you take besides uninstalling to stop it? I am not rooted.
Umm... Freeze it?

Wild guess here, try turning off Miracast in the notification bar toggles.
Nope, it off already...

Hmm I had frozen mine using Titanium.
I don't understand, if it's not miracast then what is it?

I know the music player and video player also use dlna like example you can connect to wifi and stream music and videos from another device via dlna
This is nuts, it takes the equivalent of two hours screen time... And I don't even use it!
So the only way to disable it is by purchasing titanium backup?

Did it, we'll see what happens...

Strangely the same thing just popped up for me. I've had the phone a week and never noticed dlna when looking at my battery stats. Today the phone appeared to be using more battery and dlna was the top offender for battery usage.
The app will not stop, I've cleared data and cache, tried to force stop and it just won't. I'm really not sure what is using it.
I added a lockscreen widget for the quick remote app yesterday night. I've removed that to see if it was causing dlna to run more, it doesn't seem like it should but who knows.

I wasn't either, but just today it started. I finally got the DLNA process to stop, going to watch closely and see if it kicks back on again.

Mobile Hotspot Widget?

I turn my mobile hotspot on/off quite a bit and would love to use a widget to speed up the process. However, none of the widgets I have tried from the Play Store have worked. Has anyone had any luck with a mobile hotspot widget? Thanks!
There's an app called hotspot toogle widget. Works with my s2

Doesn't seem to work for me. I have the provision check being skipped, as per this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2456338
Could something with that be causing the widgets not to work?
There is a shortcut in the qsettings in status bar

I don't see it, maybe the Verizon version doesn't have it?
It's just labelled hotspot

Still seeking widget
Has anyone found a solution for this yet? Like the original poster, I use the Mobile Hotspot regularly to tether my LG Gpad 8.3 to my Verizon G2, and I would definitely like to reduce the steps necessary to establish the connection. I have no hotspot selection on the Q settings, nor do any widgets that I have found thus far work for the Mobile Hotspot feature. My guess is that Verizon removes that selection from the Quick settings because they do not want to make it easy to tether.
If I had more time to experiment with Tasker, there is probably a way around this. Can help with this, I would be greatly appreciative.
Or maybe you need to start looking at an alternate ROM

[Q] Galaxy s 5 Download booster 3G

Hi, I noticed that the Download Booster feature is only available to those who are on 4G LTE and will not work with 3G/HDPSA+
Will this be a hardware level restriction or will it be software? I'm hoping once it's rooted that restriction will be able to be lifted so people without 4G LTE will be able to use Download Booster.
Cheers!

BOOM! 3G+WiFi, 4G+WiFi downloads.
*Some features need root though!!*
Thanks for the reply,
I am already rooted however the main use I would achieve from Download Booster is torrents, which the app doesn't support.
Cheers though!

I'm with Three UK. In my current location I only receive HSPDA+ (3G) so I'm hoping for a mod which will allow me to use Download Booster with 3G.
