Overkill vs Verizon

Today I unlocked WiFi tethering on my 4G Bionic, grandfathered into the unlimited data plan.  In the middle of nowhere, I am able to get more bandwidth than I was able to get with cable internet access back in civilization.  Verizon may think they can get away with their bullshit but hackers will always find a way.  Remember, hacking is more than just a crime, it's a survival trait.  HACK THE PLANET!

The following content is not a product of my own brilliance, but the superior intellect of others.  This is simply a collection of the steps in one place, with the hope someone, somewhere will find it useful.

STEP 1: Root your phone

STEP 2: Purchase SQLLITE EDITOR from the Android Market ($2.99 USD)


> More details coming soon


STEP 3: Set entitlement bit to 0 (1 is default)


> More details coming soon


STEP 4: Configure hotspot to correct IP settings


> More details coming soon


STEP 6: Connect your PC


> More details coming soon



STEP 5: U R HAZ INTARW3BZ!


> Check out your speeds on http://www.speedtest.net

STEP 6: Give back to the community!

This hack just saved you a bullshit $30/month fee to tether your phone.  That's $360 per year.  If that means anything to you, donate to the hackers that made this all possible for you.  Links coming shortly.
