While preparing to storm chase last night I started to wonder if there was a way to use my EVO to send GPS coordinates to my radar software on my laptop. Has anyone done something similar to this? I've looked at apps that were supposedly suppose to do this in the past, but was not able to get them to work.
Just wanted to know if anyone else had any experience doing this. I already use wireless tethering for the internet connection now, but it would be great if I could just bring the laptop and phone and have it all covered.
Also, as a side note, I have noticed a handful of apps that will send the data via Bluetooth, but I do not have Bluetooth available on my laptop, so I would prefer to just be able to transmit via USB. I may just have to break down and buy a bluetooth module for my laptop.
As of right now it seems that this isn't possible. Someone else with a Droid incredible wanted to do the exact same thing. It seems that gps module in the phone isn't capable of sending anything via USB. Maybe Bluetooth would actually work! Here's the read.

If this is the drawsomething by omgpop or w/e, they were reporting server issues/facebook server issues via various tech blogs. I believe this was the game that overloaded their Amazon cloud servers, so they were moving everything to a new host. Apparently its something wrong on their end that will be fixed over time.
Everyone around me in school Android or iphone is playing it. It's getting me annoyed as I purchased it in hopes that it would solve the problem.

I was getting this error repeatedly yesterday. Restarting the phone solved the issue for me.
Yeah they've been having server issues pretty regularly. The game is great when it works but it needs a ton of polish and there are several standard things its missing for this type of game, like notifications and chat. "Jirafabo" if anyone wants to play.

It's still not working.... Anyone have ideas
Hi y'all.
Been having weird connection problems on my reader app.
Recently I suddenly couldn't get connection to kobo server anymore. This happens on wi-fi. Then I switch to 3g and connection works again.
I switch back to wi-fi and connection works fine for a while until it starts all over.
For everything else the Wi-Fi connection hums along nicely without a hitch.
According to the app the kobo and "digital editions" accounts are A-ok. I considered installing Kobo's own app but I kinda like the HTC reader.
I did a search but no go. Any & all inputs are appreciated.
One more thing. This is kind of embarrassing. How does one close a book? If you look at the attached screen dump you'll see that the Asimov novel has a "dog ear"

It's not exactly wrong per se. The book has a dog ear on the very last page. For the life of me I can't figure out how to remove the dog ear and close the book. In the regular Kobo app you long press the book and get an option to close. Not so here. Please advise.
Regards
Elo.

I have finally rooted my One V ​CDMA Virgin phone. I know it is rooted cause the SU request goes through and says "granted"..
I am trying a couple tethering apps, open garden, WiFi Tether, etc. All of them fail. Thankfully WiFi Tether has a log to show.

Did Virgin really gimp the stock rom? If so what is the best rom to go with? Everyone I see something is not working like bluetooth or camcorder (CM9 or CM10).
I really need help, I have done iphones and ipads all day. Even unlocked my nexus 7. I really want tethering to work via bluetooth or wifi. Want my sexy JB girl to tell me driving directions! LOL. On the One V it sounds like she has a cold, or has multiple personalities (LOL it changes TTS voice randomly sometimes).
Thank you!
*Update: FoxFi works with Bluetooth but not Wifi. Which sucks cause its a VPN connection and for some reason Google Now does not like that.
I'm surprised by the lack of replies. It looks like we have to find a stable non-stock rom to flash to in order to get tethering. I have the EXACT same problem on my girlfriends phone.
Coming from the Palm Pre I used to use a Preware app that allowed me to tether my phone. Is there such an app for the S3? Any recommendations?
Get rooted and it's easy. Most custom ROMS have it built in. For an app I used the "Wi-Fi tether for root users" app for years. When I went to the GS3 I couldn't get it to work. I could see it with my laptop and connect but I got no data transfer. However I'm now running the M.O.A.R. Rom now and it's built in, I just hit it from my pull down menu. Works great!

There are bluetooth tether apps that work fine without root. And usb hardwire tethers also.
Also zoom made a usb wifi battery operated router you can run their Android app with to share your phones connection. And it charges your phone at the same time.
So, I love this phone and hate it at the same time.
First off, just at random, the BT, Wi-Fi or GPS will just turn off. Has not happened for a couple days, nothing has really changed.
Now the big issues. These are driving me nuts....
I have a Pyle PLDN74BTi (don't laugh, it was dirt cheap) and it supports Bluetooth audio and tagging and speakerphone from a BT phone. All the features work except the tagging. I cannot get BT to display the audio info or the phone info.
Second, I just bought an iBolt xProDockX. When I dock it, the phone recognizes its docked, but it will not open the doc app upon dock. I look in the default apps, and the dock isn't even listed. I purchased Car Home Ultra and it wont auto open, I even install the dock&drive app from iBolt and it wont auto open upon docking either.
Anyone else having these stupid issues with their phone? I have cleared all the apps, and I have restarted the phone. No Dice.
You posted this in the S3 forum, not the Note 3... I doubt you will get any help here
