FoxFi Working On Jellybean?

Updated to JB yesterday. Today when I tried to open Foxfi, verizon would not let it open unless I paid for their hotspot.

Wow, that is terrible. If I update, I'll probably go ahead and root. Seems like the only other option other than paying the $30 a month. But, I feel like the Verizon bill is plenty high enough.
 
I stupidly upgraded to JB today. Now FoxFi doesn't work. The VZ mobile hotspot automatically turns on, and when I kill it it essentially kills my FoxFi signal, as my PC can't connect.

F you, Verizon. I should have done more research before upgrading. Now I'm screwed.
 
I have been using FoxFi since the JB update and have not been prompted to accept VZW's hot spot terms, conditions, etc. Checked my account and hot spot is not a service I am paying for.
 
Anybody gotten their most recent bill and noticed any charges for the tethering from Foxfi yet? I haven't used mine since the update and hopefully I'll be able to soon.
 
Bump on this as well, I used this only for a little bit after noticing the verizon tether app popping up.
 
Try Fattin Hotspot Toggle widget and report back on whether it works for you or not...

Mine is still working, even after upgrading to Jellybean... But I also have an app/widget update pending that I have not applied yet because I am afraid that it might disable my ability to enable my hotspot...
 
Jb update for foxfi works yes vzw red hot spot icon comes on but so far no extra charge. But I have notice my speed on foxfi has dropped a lot it reads 400-700kbps when I used to get 6000-14000

I'm on Jellybean now and haven't had any issues with FoxFi until today. Not sure if it's network issues or what, but my data is working perfect on phone, but when tethered wirelessly the 4G signal goes completely off and on over and over again. Anyone else experiencing this?

I used it a little bit last month and I didn't see a charge on my bill that just came out.
 
DON'T DO IT!! I recently had the jellybean installed on my GFs Galaxy Tab 10.1 and all was fine using FoxFii. (I kept hitting the wait to upgrade to jellybean. She doesn't use foxfii so tried it out on hers.) I then received an update on my droid razr & again hesitated to update. I finally decided to update to jellybean after getting tired of the screen popping up. I had to intall PDANet+ which is free & All was fine...for a while. Then a newer update came out & I just okayed it update to jellybean .1v & that's when I lost my favorite all time app, foxfii. I would've preferred having my hotspot over all the things Ingot with the upgraded software. DON'T DO IT. Now i'm in the process of learning how to root my phone.

Might want to try the new version of PDANet+/FoxFi. I read elsewhere there is a new version that now supports JB even on Motorola phones. It has always worked on my S3 now on 4.1.2. I am rooted on synergy and I just use the native app. Logs on fine. The Treve mod is in the ROM so maybe the native app uses that it the background. Not sure. Just know it works.
 
Has anyone tried out the app since the update yesterday or the day before... I forget. I haven't had time to do so. Feedback would be great. Will try it tonight if I get some time and leave my feedback too.
