I don’t think the Personal Hotspot feature is activated in Globe-distributed units. I just updated mine and I can’t seem to find it.
Arnold says:
The mobile hotspot worked on my Globe Iphone 4. Was able to share connection with my iPad.

hey i tried browsing your blog on my iPhone , but the experience is not optimized for mobile devices, why don’t you use MobStac, which gives a brilliant experience and is free, you can check it out at http://www.mobstac.com/b
Paul says:
Yeah, a mobile site would be great. Or an app. Speaking of which what happened to the yugatech app?

xcu says:
i read somewhere that iOS 4.3 drains battery fast. Is this true? sa naka update na ng OS na experience nyo ba na mabilis maubos battery life ng Iphone.
Peter says:
Sir xcu, how about ung globe broadband prepaid kit na usb type, is there a way na magamit un pang internet sa ipod touch 4th gen? La wi fi d2 sa province eh.. At panu ung router? Tnx
Choi says:
Sorry for the noobness, but is it for free? I would like to refer this to my co-teacher who owns an iphone 4.
cheesyfiona says:
Did anybody experience losing contacts, apps or messages after upgrading to the OS 4.3? I have been reading Apple forums and it seems some people did. I don’t have backups whatsoever, any tips before I upgrade? TIA
Florendo says:
Hi there! Would like to know if this personal hotspot is faster than a globe superstick? Taken to account that iPhone4 has signal issues which may affect the data transfers…
