the problem with foxfi is that on my evo3d the wifi doesnt work and for the bluetooth i would have to jailbreak my ipad and i dont really want to do that
I have the same issue. Foxfi won't work on my LG Marquee so I use Easy Tether which needs a USB cable. I'm still looking for a way to share my phones 3G with my kindle fire. Any one have any ideas? Would getting a micro male-micro male cable work? Or does one side need to be an actual USB? (Neither the Kindle fire or my phone have a USB port. Both are micro USB) Does such a cable exist?

Did you try SVTP?
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

Pretty sure it won't work as the Kindle Fire would need to be in USB host mode. (You might be able to get it to do that if you root it, but that's just a thought)

Yes it is rooted. Is there a special driver I need to get to make it work??

Yup, I added hebrew dates and holidays to the google calendar to replace that functionality.
Very far from perfect, but such is life.

There are countless money apps in the market, as far as Bank accounts; if I was only allowed to have one app on an android I would choose Pageonce!

I dont think pageonce is a replacement for splash money, does it have a manual check register or it downloads it from your bank account,

Does anyone know a good texting app that has the "mark as unread" feature?

(I hope ICS has this for when I get my next phone...)

  • Location: The value of a forum such as this one is not in that one can post a question and receive an answer, but in that the question has most likely been asked before, and the answer is available to him that will but only use the search function.
  • Programs: 1. Search on google. 2. Search in the right board of DDF with a general word or two. 3. Read the wiki. 4. Read the thread. 5. Ask away.

The app is called Chess.com, I'm not sure the version but the last update the app got completely changed and I'm looking for the old version.
