I can tell whether you're using a phone or a computer, so I would guess your service provider will be able to. | |

So by unsecure you mean somebody would have to have already stolen your phone, then be a theif that bothered reading forums to find out how to use the sdk :o | |

Use the ADB and you can extract all the database files in the phone. Passwords etc are all stored in plain text in those databases. No encryption or anything :! | |

Bubble has given us some acronyms before saying that you get something different when you connect with a pc but I just can't see how. | |

Traffic usage is the only thing they will complain about, they can't detect that you're tethering, so just stick within your usage and you'll be a.o.k :thumbs: | |

Is this similar to using my E71 as a modem and connecting to O2 mobile internet through my laptop? | |
