Razor Maxx Free WiFi??

[droidntn]

Wow. All of this because I said, Go use Foxfi. I had no idea that this would get up to 6 pages. I figured you just go install it and be done. Verizon does have a way to see if your using a hotspost or your phone's just using data on it's own. I don't know how good of a job Foxfi does with hiding this fact. To be honest, if you are going to be using Foxfi a lot, you really should pay the $30 to cover your bootie. My 2 cents. Take them and run for another 6 pages

Hey dood....you contributed! That's what forums are for.
I don't think I'll be using mine much, but I sorta agree with you. If you're gonna use a lot (not sure what a lot would be) but anyways..a LOT, then prolly I'd pay and be done with it. Again, this is a good free tester to see how much you WOULD use it.
Thanks for the link.

Must have pdanet version 3.25 and then download foxfi. Its working perfect on my razr.

I only see pdanet version 3.02 on the market??

I installed foxfi and it works great. On a trip today wife was able to use her kindle fire through my hotspot lookup local homes for sale. Thanks for the tip.

If you read the entire thread you'll find the file for PDANet 3.25

However feel free to try FoxFi without it. Some people have luck with it working on it's own.

Tried it today with my new Maxx and it worked great. Data transfer speeds were really fast! It will be interesting to see how long this lasts.

Let's just enjoy it while we can...

Holy crap I just installed is and it works great. One tip however after installing foxfi reboot the phone before trying to pair to another wifi device.

Glad it worked for you.

I tried to do a search with no results, so if this is already being discussed somewhere then kindly link me to the topic.

Has anyone found a way to get the mobile hotspot feature to work without having to use Verizon's (and pay them the monthly fee for it)? Root or no root? I heard something about PDANet in combination with FoxFi working on Gingerbread but not sure how that works. Any info would be appreciated.

I'm ready for a new phone and having the wifi hotspot (free of course) is a huge bonus for me. I'm considering this or the Nexus.

Root only but worked for me just fine.Hope it helps.

Already taken care of in this thread but thanks...

FoxFi is great but is it normal for the Maxx to get pretty hot whilst using for about 10-30 minutes? Even when on calls for over 1 hour it doesn't heat up like that.

Just making sure no damage is being done internally.

 

[Super Turtleman]

Mine does not get very hot while using it. Maybe a little warm at times, but nothing I'd call hot.

Gave this a go on my Razr yesterday and its working. Willing to bet it will only last so long but I'll enjoy it while its working.

We're all going to enjoy free wifi hotspot on our unrooted phones as long as we can get it. lol

I downloaded FoxFi to my new Razr Maxx, set up, and turned phone off and on again. Seems to work, I try to connect using another wifi device, connects but then disconnects saying the password thing is wrong, even though it is correct. Suggestions?

TIA

FWIW, was able to get it going by doing a "soft reset" involving holding down the power and volume button at the same time. Now working like a charm.

My app just had an update offered today to fix some issues....fyi

 

[Super Turtleman]

Has anyone run the latest update? Mine's working fine so I don't want to update and mess it up. Lol.
