Today's free Amazon app is worth 12.95

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..

I already grabbed that while I was on the pot this morning... what a way to start your morning scoring a $13 app for free while on the throne!

Ways and means.
I have no idea if I'll ever use it, but a $13 app for free is worth a punt...

care to elaborate?
Cheers

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 grabbed it as well. Btw, I read a comment/review saying that its restricted to 20 pages and after the 20 you have to start paying extra.. is this true?

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

Lol yea...isn't that a round about way of just opening the amazon app store? This adds unneccessary complexity to your routine.

Galaxy Note 2 short hands-on

Hey there,
I just thought I would share this with you people. I work for a carrier (don't even bother asking which one ) and we received our test unit today!!! It's the grey version and it looks totally awesome. The screen real-estate is just outta this world. I put it side to side with my S3 and looking at them, I became a bit pissed at my purchase as when the Note 2 was announced, I had thought that we would never carry it (ok, I've already said enough)!
I'm sorry I can' really say much but I had it in my hands for about 5 mins...! It was a 16gb model. I witnessed popup s note, popup browser (NICE), the new menu when you pull the pen out...oh yeah and this thing is FAST!
I have no idea about the release date (they wouldn't tell us), although I find it a bit strange that we are receiving a unit so soon. I've read on several sites that it would be next November...!

You must be in the united states, you said several sites said November ( that's US release month) and you said you didn't expect it so soon ( Europe is expecting it starting this Friday, going on next week). I'm gonna take a wild guess and say you work for.....sprint or at&t but I'm not sure which one

Nothing is ever certain in this world...
I didn't actually have enough time with it (5mins) to notice any potential bugs (and mind you, we only received the phone today). I can ask my colleague who's in charge of the device though to see if he notices anything odd.

I do have that info. It seems that even my employer is announcing it on its website so the info is already in the public domain. So here goes: SGH-T889V.
You won't find much when googleing that, except for a reference related to Samsung's Smartview app.

Very nice. Im about to drop the hammer on a P6810 now that I saw this. After my journey with the Nexus7, I miss the quality of the Tab 2 7.0 I bought for my wife. The 6810 will be a welcome addition. Besides the fact that im not a hardcore gamer anyway.

Came from a nexus 7 because I needed mobile data and I can honestly say I'm happy I did. Now knowing we'll get JB hell yes!

I wouldn't get too excited by one note on one Samsung country site, it could quite easily be a typing error of some kind.
If it's confirmed from 2 more official sources (and that doesn't include 'my friend whos second cousin works in the warehouse') then I'll start to believe it.

I 100% agree with you. I guess I should just start saving up for the 7.7 note
Sent from my GT-P6800 using xda premium

Well, its on a Samsung corporate webpage so that is obviously a plus. Besides that, how can they only push a JB update to the lesser-specced device like the Tab 2 7.0 and not the 7.7?? Really??? The 7.7 is obviously selling, probably not as much in the US as it is across the pond, but its selling nonetheless and is still a viable device!

I don't believe it, google translate has this as the translated text
"Confirm the update" meaning there is no time for it, I'll see it when I believe it
It has nothing to do with specs, the S2 and Note I which are basically the same devices are supposed to receive the update, so the 7.7 could easily run JB from samsung.

many products has confirm the update in front of it, and it did updated now.
and look at this article, there's still buzz going aroung 7.7, so samsaung won't forget it that easy, especially they will use a lot of common sw components from other similar devices, it will be configure and build and retest for them.

Yes, that link takes you to the techintz.com web site which you would then think it's all above board and then you have 8 comments so obviously it's been downloaded.
.... but what I would like to know is why are they pointing to a mediafire download link and not google play for the Box App without first explaining the reason.

Its a modified version of the app box to get you free space... The one in the market isnt modified to give you free space..

It's very tempting, but Technitz hasn't been around that long and it's run by some guy in Tanzania (not that this means much except that it's not a viable and reliable source and it's a country where there is likely little chance of legal recourse). The APK is questionable at best...so, while tempting, I'll pass. Its not like this is the first or the last of such deals...so I'll wait until the next legitimate offer.

I understand your concern about going through an unknown source but why not just try and download the box app from...
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.box.android&feature=nav_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDMsImNvbS5ib3guYW5kcm9pZCJd
and follow these instructions to see if you can get a free lifetime 50GB Box storage.
How do I get my 50GB?
If you’re brand new to Box, you’ll need to download the app from your device and sign up for a free Box account. After the sign up is complete, log into your account from the device. Your upgrade should be complete and you’ll see a confirmation message.
If you already have an older version of the Box app on your device, you just need to sign into your account on your device and the upgrade should be complete.
Note that this promotion is only for free Box Personal accounts; if you are a Box Business, Enterprise or paid Personal customer you do not qualify for this promotion.

You have nothing to loose.

What do you or yall not understand when I say someone modified that apk to get free 50gb of space.. The one from the market will NOT get you free 50gb of space... If you to scared to try it than it means u Dont want the space.. Yes it ...WORKS...
Also its only gonna work for so long so you need to do it quick..

I recon the guy who modded the app, can see every users files, as he will be admin in some way.
Nice way of collecting personal info, data mining, who knows, might be able to collect enough info for a fake passport, and some credit cards to fund a new home
I will still try it, just won't put sensitive info in there....
Thanks:thumbup:
Ps. Just read the link, the modded app more than likely sends your loggin details to the app modder?
Just a though?

Installed the app, got my 50GB, uninstalled the app and changed my password to something REALLY secure. Also under Settings -> Security in browser version you can activate 2-step verification for unrecognized logins, where after logging in a code will be sent to your mobile. And you can see when and where your account was accessed.

Agreed. Not very happy with this at all. Locking us out of our own devices that most of us paid FULL PRICE FOR!!!

Yeah me too... This sucks... I'm seriously thinking about selling mine and buying a international model. Does anyone know which model works good on At&t?

I bought 2 note 3's and and 1 gear. Dropped about a G and I can't use my device the way I would like? Not a happy customer at this point.

I went to an AT&T store a few days ago to get a secure element for free (SIM) and received a text survey the next day. I gave the employee a 10 but said I wouldnt recommend at&t to a friend, and everything else I gave low low reviews. They called me several hours later and I let them know why... I am sure it doesnt mean much... but at least they know I think they suck!
The people on the phone tried to help... but didn't really know how to go about getting someone to talk to me about bootloaders... they even recommended me checking out XDA to unlock it... LOL awesome.
I told them that I am perfectly fine with voiding my warranty... so can I please get this flashed to an international version... no idea how to answer something like that... oh well...

Yeah right. I'm sure this thread will be locked. I knew what I was getting when I bought it. I really didn't care as long as I could root.
If flashing and ROMing is that important, get a different phone. The T-Mobile version of the Note 3 is unlocked and will work on AT&T. I prefer AT&T because I get 4G/LTE where I live and in the building where I work.
Very happy with my Note 3 rooted and using Xposed, Wanam, etc. No need for a custom ROM. At least for me anyways.

AT&T has analytics on social media and Web information they collect on what is being said about them. Most large companies do and thought this might get some attention.
