FCC Forces Verizon To Allow Free Tethering, Lev...

Jul 31 2012 09:34 PM | Ryan Dizzle in News

Verizon Wireless, the nation's largest mobile phone carrier network, has been ordered to pay a 1.26 million dollar settlement to the FCC for violating terms of agreement.

Back in March, Verizon purchased unused airwaves to expand its wireless network from Time Warner, Cox Communications, and Brighthouse Networks LLC.

The FCC allowed Verizon to purchase the airwaves so long as the carrier agreed to improve upon wireless innovation and more openness towards its consumers.

According to the FCC, Verizon violated the terms of agreement by asking Google to block all tethering apps within its Google Play store and for charging its customers for the use of tethering.

With the FCC ruling, Verizon Wireless customers are free to use tethering apps from the Google Play store and will not be charged to tether if they are on unlimited data plans.

Verizon Puts The SGS3 On Root Lockdown; Petitio...

Jul 07 2012 09:11 AM | Ryan Dizzle in News

In order to cutdown on production costs and to better streamline its OTA updates, Samsung released a singular flagship phone, the SGS3 on all major carriers with little to no differences between each model. 

For the dev community, this makes it easier to port custom roms across all SGS3 carrier handsets. However, Verizon has locked down the ability to root using the basic Odin methods. 

A petition on XDA had started for Verizon to unlock the bootloader for their SGS 3 variant.

Hit up the source link to contribute to the petition;
