How does the lock screen work? I did the update but just ignore the error message
I installed the update for FoxFi and then enabled it to install a certificate on my phone vis VPN. During that process, I was not asked to turn on a lock screen, perhaps because I was already using one.
Works fine now... no Verizon message box.
I installed the update for FoxFi (version 2.13.1) and then enabled it to install a certificate on my phone vis VPN. During that process, I was not asked to turn on a lock screen, perhaps because I was already using one.
As @dezymond also found, FoxFi works fine now... no Verizon message box.
I haven't installed the need Foxfi version yet. If I'm reading correctly, since I don't use nor do I want to use a lockscreen, you have to do into the Foxfi settings and activate "no lockscreen" under the hash code. This may continue to bring up the Verizon authorization, but you can ignore it as we do right now.
Let me know if I'm missing something.
Just did the... update. Works as mentioned
I am on a full data plan via Verizon; and now after the update...
FoxFi still runs; though when clicking the "Activate Hot Spot" box... a window briefly pops-up saying "checking for subscription status". That popup goes away and FoxFi does indeed work.
I don't remember it doing that pre-update.
Just out of curiosity, I tried to remove my Lock Screen after installing the update and the option to have no lock screen is now grayed out. I would imagine I would have to delete the certificate first if I wanted to change to no lock screen.
Ah, there's no joy in Mudville folks. Decided to fdr to have the Wi-Fi toggle, however, also had to reset Foxfi - the updated version. Now I can't access it without first setting a lockscreen. Hope I'll be able to follow the info in their description and remove the lockscreen through the hash code, and have Foxfi work from there. I really despise using a lockscreen.
Thanks for sharing that. Lol. That does ease my mind. I'll pay attention just in case
Try using Bluetooth, it worked for me
Foxfi is working perfectly for me.
I see the Thunderbolt in your profile. Do you now have the S4? If so, have you done the Foxfi update that's specifically for the S4?
I need to change my profile. Not sure how to do that but I currently have an s4.
I have done the update and I gave not had any problems. No pop up errors since the foxfi update

You had to do the OTA update before receiving the one for Foxfi, correct? I got the initial question from Verizon to activate tethering after installing the OTA, which I ignored. Then the Foxfi update came in which asks to setup a lock screen to use, which I also ignored until doing an fdr, and while reinstalling my apps, the new Foxfi update jumped in then. Sent them a query about being able to remove or not use a lock screen via their hash code in settings. Hoping to hear something soon.
