I sent them an email last week asking if foxfi supported jelly bean. They responded that foxfi supports only up to ics 4.0 and not past that. They're working on updates. I have ics 4.0 on my phone and won't upgrade/update until I know otherwise. Don't want to lose my precious foxfi.

I was told by someone in another forum that you can only refuse the update 3-4 times then it will auto update. Is this true?

I would also like to know will PDAnet usb tether still work with Jelly Bean? And what about bluetooth tether?

It will auto update, I know this to be true cause I'm now on my second Razr due to the fact that prior to ics I was rooted and refused the update 3-4 times cuz I didn't want to loose root. I had not installed the rootkeeper yet and feared it was gonna mess up my Razr. It did update before I had it installed. It had bootloop and no hope of turning back. Had to have it replaced. Was stuck on the Droid logo repeatedly,wouldn't even boot to recovery. My heart sank. That's how I know it will auto update. As for pdanet or tethering I'm not sure never needed it so I can't answer that.

Original Droid Razr using Droid Forums.

what happens if I update on root? Will it brick my phone?

I think it will fail. You might be able to use voodoo rootkeeper to temp unroot and try to maintain root through the update, but I don't think that's 100%

 

[wvdroidman]

so If I update it will brick the phone and there is no way to unroot on jelly bean, right?

I don't think it will brick it. The update will just fail. I don't know of a root method for jelly bean. Maybe there is now

So is Verizon and/or Motorola behind this whole FoxFi not working on Jellybean deal? Or is FoxFi behind in updating their own?

Here's what i found, Compatibility Check

*New! FoxFi is now part of PdaNet+. PdaNet+ contains everything in FoxFi plus the capability to connect in USB mode. Use the following table to verify if your phone's Android version is supported in WiFi mode. If your phone is not supported please use Bluetooth mode or USB mode instead in PdaNet+.

*If you have one of the following models, the latest Android update has broken WiFi mode but it may still be possible to support it in future FoxFi updates: Samsung Epic Touch (Sprint), HTC Rezound (Verizon), LG Lucid (Verizon), T-mobile Galaxy SII and Samsung Proclaim.

The list below may not be complete or accurate.

Improper Wifi tethering is costing Verizon about 2 Billion in lost profit a year. By that they mean that you are not paying the correct fees associated with tethering. So they as most companies forced Google to do a redesign of Wifi permissions resulting in Foxfi no longer working. As where Sprint block customer access to the app. They try to blame your slow speeds on your tethering and unlicensed tethering of other people on your tower. It's funny

Ya know, if they'd charge a reasonable amount for wifi tether people would just pay for it, and now with their new data plans, why the heck do they care how you use that data that you are already paying through the nose for?
