FoxFi After ICS Update

[Tsukiyomi]

If this is all that is necessary to get FoxFi working, why are the developers not telling us to uninstall/reinstall?

I tried doing it the day ICS came out for the E4GT and it didn't work.

I had to change the name of the Foxfi network setting and then it worked on my Razr after ICS update.

Doesn't work for me, thanks for the suggestion though.

Foxfi worked fine for me until i did a ICS update on my Sprint Galaxy S2 phone.
I kept getting the notice to update to ICS and just kept ignoring it, then I said what the hey..now I'm paying the price..foxfi wont work.

I tried a hard reset..no luck.
I called sprint, they said call your local sprints store and they will downgrade to ginger bread, but when I called the sprint store [three of them] they all said they can not down grade a op sys once it has been installed.[the old phones used to have this ability]

My advise to everyone.
If your phone is working well, try to find a option under settings to disable alert messages and keep using using your current op sys as long as you own the phone.
Theses companies are getting really slick and putting things in your upgrades that limit functionality.
Sprint disabled the ability at Goggle Play to download Foxfi, not they went the next step to prevent it's use in ICS.

Upgraders beware.

I had not seen that. Nice! I actually did like having it with gb, was kinda shocked when I found out I couldn't use it on ics

Per Foxfi.com/bin, where the download link is found for us Sprinters, they are still working on support for the SGSIII and Epic Touch with ICS update. Hope they're able to break thru the Great Wall Sprint erected!

Ok, you have to uninstall foxfi in apps, then google foxfi and install the bin file from foxfi website. Basically you have to uninstall and reinstall to get it working....and all is good

That's what I did also and works fine

It does not work on mine, running 4.04.4. Are you running ICS?

I have ginger bread on my Samsung galaxy S3 and I downloaded foxfi from the Google website and still won't work on the S3.

SGSIII comes with ICS...did you downgrade to GB?

Couldn't get the side-loading to work for me. Installed it just fine, but my computer would not connect.

Here's the link to FoxFi's website.
Here's the link to the page with a link to the apk.

Hope you have better luck than me.

** I'm running ICS. Installed it with the manual update method, not the OTA.

Thank you for the link but still don't work on my sprint galaxy S3, with my Nexus 7 tablet. It won't connect.

They're working on it...Sprint put the block in when released ICS update.

Dear foxfi,
I knew you were too good to be a true

This is not a Foxfi issue. This is a carrier issue. Carriers do not want us to have free tether even though it costs them no more than if we were using data through our phones. It's just their way of trying to get us to pay to tether. Last I heard Foxfi was working on a workaround but I'm sure they more workarounds they create, the more carriers will just block them.

It still says that...

FoxFi Installer
*Support for the new Galaxy S3 and the new ICS update for Epic Touch are being worked on. Should be compatible soon in a future update.

It still says they are working on it all the way at the bottom.....FoxFi Installer

I need them to update ASAP. I need my tablet to connect outside of my house. Otherwise it's just an Angry Birds machine for my kids lol
