[APP] Chase Banking

Hi XDA,
For the EVO owners who have a Chase bank account, the new Android app has finally come out in the market. This was the one thing I missed when coming from iOS. Now that it's finally here I thought it would be appropriate to share worth the community. You cam find it by searching the market for "Chase".

I think it's been out for almost 2 months now. The app is ok but I still use Pageonce for all my tracking. The plus would be depositing checks through your phone.
Interesting....i did not know it was out for so long. I would've used it much sooner.
I found out by heading into Chase to deposit some checks and my clerk told me about it.
The Android market is getting better every day.

I've been using it and even deposited a couple checks and works great.
I emailed them this summer and asked them if they would come out with an android app, and they said no!
Downloading now..

It was probably some outsourced company in ***** who emailed you back. I find it's always easier to just ask on a forum because members, for the most part, tend to know more about these kind of things.

I wish I would have known earlier. But it is great for depositing checks, to be sure. Saves a lot of hassle, leaving a job to go to the bank to deposit a client check, I just do it when they aren't looking lol

Yes he's right, I have 2 knockoff 3500's and 2 seidio 3500's...tbh I really can't tell the difference between the 4. But for me to give you my honest word, I would say get a seidio...
Ill take a look at it. Thanks everyone for your replies. Gonna most likely order one tonight. Any chance you guys know if seidio makes one with the white back? And already running the exact kernal you specified lol.
EDIT: OK so is the knock off worth 10 dollars? Meaning will it last longer than stock, I did not realize that the seidio was so expensive.

I don't think its worth 60 bucks, its pretty much the same as the 16 dollar Amazon batteries with the cover why spend 60 bucks on that junk.

Just cause its branded by sprint doesn't make it better than the Chinese one lol. I can assure the "sprint" branded battery was probably made in China as well lol. The branded one can fail just like the Chinese battery, only thing better about the "sprint" branded one is that you can walk back in the store to get your money back vs having to ship it back.

Let me throw in my two cents... I use work at radioshack when I was three a dumb phone battery standard ran over 70 bucks however cost was less then a buck no joke. Name means nothing only thing maybe less hassle. However batteries are explosive in nature it happens with or without name brands

I figure if I get the 20 dollar one and it does what I need it to do I'm fine and if it stops working or something I'm only out 20 bucks. At some point I might buy the 60 dollar one, but ill give the cheap one a shot.

If you're going to buy what is still one of the top of the line phones out there why are you going to go cheap on the battery? They're all a rip off anyways, mine as well get an oem one so you can get it replaced for free if it goes bad. Just don't overcharge it or you mine as well just get the cheap one.
in my opinion the yoobao 3000mah is the best extended battery and I've tried them all.

I wouldn't be surprised if they all came from the same factory, I used to work at Dart Container (styrofoam cup factory) and we made the same cups with several brand names on them.

really? this game is too easy. just dodge when he charges. in first place he charges once, then hit him, second place he will charge twice before getting "stunned" then hit him, last place he charges three times in a row before getting stunned hit him then. fairly simple. havent tried it above normal difficulty though.

My credit card company (master card) calls me when there are any purchases outside of my town or any large or frequent purchases. I love that about them.

Woot! Got my 3d

Well I just got out of my local sprint store and walked out with my 3d. When I got me EVO last year I used my wifes line. So mine was still open for renewal. Got a 150 dollar trade in for my 4G. Can't decide how I feel yet. I LOVED my EVO 4G hopefully im not dissapointed.
I don't see a 3d section on my xda app. I thought I saw one before

Can't see why you'd be disappointed, faster, better battery life, a little thinner and longer, better screen.
Sounds good to me.

Yeah my wife is do for an upgrade of course I'm taking it but I'm not sure if I want the 3d if I do get it it will probably be because most of our dev are moving to it well and its a nice phone but I didn't get a chance get into see one today maybe tomorrow .
So I might end up with one if I'm impressed with it.

Unfortunately there are no phones eligible for an upgrade on my account. Even if there was my wife would throw a fit. I applied for a amazon.com store card and got approved for $600. Then found out you can't use it on amazonwireless.com. I was so close.

just waiting on the hboot crack and I will have one. $50 buck to change my 4G to 3D. Can't wait!!!
A phone is not worth accumulating debt.
It won't be debt I make that much in a day just can't convince the wife to let me spend that much in a day. I also have a coworker who is gonna get it with his upgrade and trade me for my EVO 4G. I just gave to spend the $180 to order it from amazon.

Battery life is for sure improved. Took it off at 7am and 13 hours later I was at 30 percent. I played around off and on and never plugged it back in. My 4G would need charging around lunch time with regular use.

Normally I don't post about this but today's free Amazon app is PrintShare and it's usually 12.95 so now is the time to get it..

You can create a fake amazon.com account using a fake us address (i googled for one) and your set as long as you don't try to get a paid for app for that you would need an american based credit card.
Thx i grabbed the app (same method listed above)
Just downloaded and tested, worked perfectly with my WiFi printer, Canon MX880.
The app does work great. I downloaded and installed the printer sharing app and can print to my office's network printers no problem. Not even sure if you need to do that, but it worked for me.

did they release the app store to other countries?
have a german account and had no problem with the app store.
nice app btw.
This is a great app. I liked it before but hated the price so I bought Printbot for something like 25-33% of the cost. Sad part is that I bought it just a few weeks ago! I still grabbed this one though.
i grabbed it also its great better than cloud print

I saw that too. Then I printed a page and it still said 20 pages, so I figured it referred to 20 pages at one time. At least I hope so...

Is there anyway to get Amazon to send a email for the free app of the day?
Wow, digging up an old post, lol. Why not just take the 30 seconds out of the day to manually check? lol. Make yourself a calendar reminder for every day of the year, if you really can't remember, and voila.
I didn't know I have that app. I just tried printing something from Google doc and it works! Amazing!
Edit : I use this app called my daily free Amazon app. You can set a time, and it will notify you of what free app for that day. I set it to 10pm everyday, because I'm usually home during that time so I could use wifi to download

I have been doing that. Only to find out its some app that is not worth the time to go to Amazon.
