Press and hold the power button + volume down button for 10 seconds to perform a force reboot on the device.

Thanks for the response tried that. Its giving me a contact customer service type fault, as if I have to pay for it I was under the impression this was usable after you downgraded to a data plan. Was I possibly on a trial offer.

I never do the Bluetooth but do the USB tether. Mine stopped working as soon as JB was installed ota.

Called Verizon. They said that u have to pay for that and reason it was working before is because the software wasn't provisioning the account for tether access. Now it is checking and u have to pay.

Few questions. New to forum.

Can I roll back the ota update back to stock ICS? Not a reinstall...just a rollback. Not rooted. 100% stock phone.

Any good tether apps or a way to get my USB tether back without rooting? Tried a couple tether apps from play store that make u install stuff on PC. They are mad slow. Kills the connection. With the USB tether option is android it was super fast. I want that back...or an equivalent.

Can anybody offer any ideas?

I don't know any carrier that allows u to tether for free. Another Plus for owning a cell....not just Verizon.


BTW. I found a work around for the tethering.
