Android Phone Data Throttle handling

ikonerg

This is a modification of DJSwiggle's - How to defeat data throttling 5g block:

1) Download ROM that you will be using - I used latest Nightly build.

2) Without installing it on the phone, put it on desktop and open it with 7zip.

3) Go to System/Framework and extract services.jar to the desktop

4) Open services.jar with 7zip, and extract classes.dex to the desktop

5) Download smali and baksmali files and rename them smali.jar and baksmali.jar accordingly

6) Put services.jar, smali.jar and baksmali.jar into SDK/tools folder

7) open CMD and change directory to SDK/tools folder

8) type command: java -jar baksmali.jar -o classout/ classes.dex

9) Go to SDK/tools folder, open folder classout and click on directories until you get to the files

10) Find all files that have throttleservices in their title, 7 of them. Delete them.

11) Go back to CMD widnow, type command: java -Xmx512M -jar smali.jar classout/ -o new-classes.dex

12) Find new-classes.dex file in SDK/tools folder, rename it to normal classes.dex, put it into services.jar file using 7zip (replace the existing file), put services.jar into system/framework folder of ROM zip file using 7zip (you will replace the existing sevices.jar)

13) Put that ROM on your SD card of the phone

14) Using ROM Manager, Install ROM from SD Card

15) When prompted, I chose to wipe Data and Dalvik Cache (uncertain if wipe data really needed, but I did it and fix worked)

16) After ROM installs, your phone still will be slow. You will have to sign in, do introductory actions (If you wiped data), until you can have two things in place - your network is green, connected to Google servers, and you can go to Settings, Wireless & Networks and choose Mobile Networks - it will force close, and with that it will reset the network connection.

17) Do not need to wait until it connected back to the network - jusr reboot your phone.

18) After that phone will have normal network speed, and will work normally (except Wireless & Networks tab of course).

I looked around more and found additional data that throttle files modify other settings that were untouched - but which are handled as above with fresh unused ROM.

Good work. :-)

Will this work with any rom on any phone or just the cliq?

ikonerg

It should work on any ROM as far as I know - try it and see if it works the same way. I have seen thatc other people succeeded with all sorts of roms on different forums.

I thought they tracked data through your SIM card now.
But I will give it a try on my next throttle ;)
Also where are the download links for the smali and baksmali?

Is this proven to work already?

ikonerg

Well it works great right now on my ROM. Once I had data dwindling down to slow 65-75 kbps but I force closed the Mobile Networks tab, it reset network and again I have the normal speed.
