[UOTE=bakenast;53626]you could use a vzw android if u didnt want to hastle with reflashing all the time and just tether it[/QUOTE]
Would that fix the throttling too? The problem here is the throttling.

I am no mifi guy but nv's work the same in all quallcom based devices.may be worth a shot to look at them.

there is no 69710 on the mifi's they go up to 65535 as for nv item 450 this is what it looks like on my throttled one
00450 (0x01C2) - OK

Yeah mine looks that way too.....

I even saved a version before my mifi got throttled where the first digit was 00 instead of 01. It worked one time and then after that it was a no go.

Just to clarify,any device made in the last 2 years can/will have nv items written above 65535,so just because your tools cant read them or you dont know how to read them doesnt mean they are not there,remember they dont want you to read/write them.

this nv item should be set all "00" for disable,when set to "01" this nv item is set to enable.there are also a few nv's that set exact data speed or curb and when enabled it doesnt matter what nv item 450 is set to it supersedes that and item 450 only has to set to enable one time for your device to respect throttle curbing speed set by another nv item,this can be disabled by firmware easily in phones so i am sure it also can be in mifi's.

keep in mind people there is more than one way to skin a cat and i am not a mifi guy nor have i ever fooled with them for more than maybe reloading a messed up device,my 2 have always worked fine on the 10 dollar plan,but i do not abuse either,i have google fiber gigabyte connection and only use the mifi for its ip and posting craigslist ads so my use in a month is probably less than 300 mb ea.

all lte devices use nv items up over the 70000 mark,and new nv items to even control 3g data are now written in that area and supersede older items written under 65535

I have full list and descriptions of all nv items but as long as quallcom makes new chips the list will constantly change with new additions and exceptions.
some of the "mifi guys" here probly know some other tricks as well,but remember most all function is controlled by the nv

EDIT: THIS ALSO SHOULD BE SAID--YOU CAN PERMANENTLY DAMAGE YOUR DEVICE WRITING THE WRONG NV ITEMS SO EDIT ONLY IF YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING.
