Re: ☢ ☢ ☢ ☢ ☢ [WARNING] - Tethering Users ☢ ☢ ☢ ☢ ☢

Holy Cr*p this freaked me out, seeing that I have been using between 17-22 GB a month for the past 6-7 months with Sprint. They have never billed me extra (I'm on the simply everything plan) never once said anything.

One thing to note though is that I check everyday what my usage is and if any extra charges are being applied. Also noted that depending on where it said my location was (proxy server perhaps), jumped between L.A. and Wichita and that my usage would either rise during that internet session or just stay the same.

Now I do netflix instant view alot so it adds even more GB than is what's being reported by Sprint, but again, never been charged extra so far.

I use the typical .cabs found for ICS and have been for some time with no problem, running either Mighty Rom, Silencece Rom, or Energy Rom. But I mostly been using the wi-fi router router from HTC with Sprint as my connection (no regedits) and have been fine.

yes I do see that this looks like a Telus problem and Sprint users are immune (so far) from it but just wanted to add my usage input in too...
