I'm unsure if FoxFi plays nice with anyone on 4.1 and above. When I updated the Droid Razr M and (T-Mobile) Galaxy S III at my job to 4.1, they both stopped working and FoxFi suggested that I use PDA Net. I haven't tried it since then, but I'd love to know because I'm looking to use FoxFi on my Nexus 4 when it arrives.

Why is there a need to use a 3rd party app? The wifi tether built into the OS works fine.

I think doesn't work on truly unlimited.

Change the user agent on your pc to an android phone from the carrier.

It functions, but the Tether built into Android works...
Note tethering on Straight Talk is against to TOS.

Does it still work until now? If yes, could you share that UA string?

Unfortunately it is not free. There is an in app purchurase, to unloc a key of the app. The funny thing is that for Apple users is free. I personally used the previous version, but Thanks to this I will try a new app to perform this function. Definitely lost a customer and sincerely hope that many others go away to.
Same here... Am enjoying watching the ratings go down for it... people are angry....

How does the anywhere access thing work? If I let's say i go on Vacation do I have to leave my computer on the whole time in order to access it?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Yep to the above.. you have to pay by the month or year for that access.... that is why most people are pissed... try teamviewer...

Yes you have to leave it on.
So does the old splash top HD still work, since that didn't require a monthly fee? Edit: yup still works even over 3G

I'm using the regular epc.tmobile.com access point at the moment but I flipflop between it and the old voice stream apns. I've tethered to: two Laptops, a PS3, and my fiancée's One S. (She's still on the 2GB plan)
I'm doing this on the latest Euroskank Jellybro for the One S, and I'm using the regular built in WiFi tethering feature.
If all else fails change your useragent to Opera or Android, and that should stop the redirections. T-Mobile can only monitor the fluctuations of data used and your userstring to determine if you're tethering.

Got it to work on using fox fi and pdanet tablet on the nexus 7. only works on bluetooth dun not wifi hotspot for some reason. shame though because when attempting to download from the play store or attempting to stream netflix it gives an erros "waiting for connection"

Multi users on Nexus 4

I would love to see multi user on the nexus 4..I think it wouldn't be hard since it's already in 4.2... think it would make sense for doing different setups like different launcher, icon packs, theme etc..I wonder if it's just a line or lines of code to turn it on and/ or is any body up for the challenge!!?

Multi-user support is only available on tablets. Nokia has a patent on multi-user support on phones.
I am sure a build.prop edit can fix it.

That is more for switching ROMs ...not having different setups (launcher, icon packs etc)

Exactly.. doesn't mean we can't figure a way to get it on our phones
Hmm I don't think a build. Prop edit will do it but I'll check

Well its only for tablets, I think the reason for that being tablets are more family and sharing, whereas phones are a personal device. Why would you want to share your phone?

I don't see anything in build.prop specifically disabling multi-user mode. Looks like I was wrong.

Ah I see. I didn't know that. I thought it was a 4.2 thing.. You are right though. I have no need for it on my phone.

Would be nice to have multi-users for testing and demo purposes.
Absolutely! Make an account for me and let me borrow your phone.

Bored, trolling or no way to imagine use cases when multi-users may be handy?
If I want to show something to a client on my Nexus 4 (or any other device) without providing access to my apps and data?
or
If I'm willing to give it to my 3-4 years offspring for a video or a game, without risking my contacts, notes, mails?
(just 2 of many)

This is the only reason I would need it, but it is a good one. If my 5 year old wants to watch a movie or play a game I wouldn't have to worry about her screwing up my home screen or deleting apps like she has been known to do.
I believe Paranoid to be the answer. That's if you don't mind rooting.
Great example above and the most used I'm sure.

Have you tried on Nexus 7

Requires root.
Removes some of the limitations of the present 4.2 multi-users' policies.

Google wallet

I'm new to the RAZR m scene but I was wondering if there's a hacked Google wallet we can load to make it work like my sgs 3 has for Verizon? If it's already been discussed to death I apologize.

Tapatalk Not Working???

I am not able to log into any forums in the app. All it does is just takes me onto the guest screen of the forum. I have also tried installing older versions of the app but they won't work but they all work on my nexus 7.

XDA app has been flaky for about a week on hot my Nexus 4 and Xperia ZL. Some days it just sits on spash screen, some days works flawlessly. Very strange...
Skickat från min Nexus 4
Ever since i rooted, tapatalk (paid version) and Motorcycle.com (similar) have not allowed me to log in. however i downloaded tapatalk 4 hd version and this one does let me log in. is there something that i did wrong when rooting my sprint gnex? i am on the stock ROM and 4.2.1 as well. everything works great expect for this and gps (kinda finicky)
not sure why but nowadays tapatalk 4 doesnt precache the next page. kind of irritating to wait for the next page to load. anyone has the same issue?
