Did anyone else get a bizarre message today?
AT&T Free Msg: Click below to download a free mobile app! Std data rates apply. Send stop to 2402 to end mktg msg

Anyone know what this is... strangely enough, I am very reluctant to download software recommended by random text messages.....
i received that same text message...didnt bother downloading because it was from an unknown sender
Also think about this. IF AT&T was offering free software wouldn't they put it on wireless.att.com?
The link redirects (or tries to before timing out) to http://wap2.cingularextras.com.
Trying to go to http://www.cingularextras.com takes you to http://mediamall.wireless.att.com which is pretty much where you'll end up trying to 'Shop' from http://wireless.att.com/home.
You can go into your Account and uncheck all the marketing options. I used to get text messages for promotions and what not and I removed all of them and now I don't get anything.

They certainly wouldn't distribute over a text message from a domain called wappush.net. I'd be more than reluctant to download it. It screams of a virus.

Yeah, that's what it screamed to me too....
Thought I would throw it out here before I deleted it, though....
Very Suspicious!

Sure tell everyone the Code. Now scammers know to put att in the first three words. And At&t Really should be smart enough not to use such an unidentifiable website. The should use wappush.att.net or something. I'm still very suspicious of this.

you don't really expect us to be able to see files on your local disc drive...?
ok ok,I know now...please look at this picture,there is no sync option to receive e-mail
That is manual send/receive of e-mails (pop/imap e-mail account). This types of mailaccounts cannot push e-mail to your phone.
If you want to receive your e-mail directly on your phone after you received it in your mailbox you need push mail (like Exchange).
There are some free e-mail hosters that provide free Exchange (gmail), so try searching for it here in the forum and with google.
oh...That comes with useless mail in X1??Thank you
I dont know if this is either a problem with my data plan (which is bad as hell) or gtalk...
i have a lag of about 2 minutes in mi messaging, so im chatting with my GF and i write to her and all my sentences are kept in the lower part of gtalk, and all her sentences are kept on the upper side, so to respond her i need to scroll up my chat window, read what she wrote to me and write her back...
When you send a message, gtalk show a text like this "sent at 2:00 on monday" mine doesnt... and like 3 o 4 minutes later it finnaly appears!
i tried stopping gtalk, erasing its cache, installing older gapps and nothing seems to work...
To explain it better it looks something like this:
Her: hi
Her: in my house
Her: no, im not
Her: my teacher is out of town
Her: yup...
Me:hi
Me: where are you right now?
Me: are you going to go to school?
Me: why?
Me: ok
im pretty mad right now...
That's very strange. Are you using an autokilling task manager that is stopping the talk service?

Im in Honduras, Central America (-6)... im pretty sure i found the answer to this issue but sadly it involves a wipe!!
First you should set all your contacts to "non registered chats" pressing menu on every chat window (active and non active) and setting your first button untill it look like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Then you have to wipe your phone (i did all of them except for the ext wipe) using Amon RA...
It may work too if you do this same procedure backwards... just try...
Let me know if this fixes it!
http://www.prefixmag.com/news/filesonic-disables-file-sharing/60803/
So you have no doubt heard about the insanity surrounding the shutting down of MegaUpload, particularly the wild story about how the file-sharing website's founder was arrested in high fashion. Well, this has all clearly spooked other file-sharing services, including FileSonic. If you go to its homepage, you're greeted by a message that reads: "All sharing functionality on FileSonic is now disabled. Our service can only be used to upload and retrieve files that you have uploaded personally." Not only that, but Uploaded.to is no longer available for use in the U.S.
Wow. Do you think anyone else will fold in light of the ongoing witch hunt? And could a major player like Mediafire go under?
Update: The FileSonic Facebook page has now disappeared. Props

Update: Uploaded.to has blocked all U.S. visitors as a response to the MegaUpload takedown
Uploaded.to has no service in the USA

not exactly Lamar, the author of SOPA could come back with an even worse bill
http://live.drjays.com/index.php/2012/01/20/sopa-is-defeated-but-new-internet-bill-gains-critics/
fear is already programed into most Americans
So lets make the bill into something more appealing.
What would people fear the most, something happening to their children
And how dare anyone go against something to helps children
total manipulation
i hope everyone with a filesonic account asks for a refund.

Because you have to pay for a premium proxy account if you want to download large files

It's not searchable in the marketplace. You need to download it using the link directly on the phone.
I strongly recommend using the QR code from the official blog post.

Are Skype calls on the Beta version free? Seems I can make outbound calls through the dial pad ! Am I going to receive a bill later on ?
not every region can download that.

No, not for the moment and there are a lot of complains on their forums about it too.
Me for one, I don't like it that it wont stay live either, not even with Push notifications, but its also said in an interview that they're working on a solution
IM: It is not possible to receive IM's when Skype is not in foreground
Workaround: None available

Hi!
I'll get straight to the point.

Second Picture:
My Question is, WHY both markets are different? I live in Pakistan and I was wondering why we dont get the same one as shown in First Picture?
Is there any way I could get the one shown in First Picture?
Someone gave me an idea that MarketUnlocker is there for this reason. But i have tried playing with it and i was unable to get my desired results.
Anyone have any idea about it?
The one in the first picture is for the states (or places that have Google Music, Video Books). Currently not available in all countries and while you may figure out how to get it it will still be useless as I am sure you will still need a US credit to purchase anything from Google Books for example. Or a US address to have the Galaxy Nexus delivered etc

Hey! Thanks for the prompt response
I thought they would've SOMETHING which is free. Would it hurt if i download some "Free" music or books from Google Play Store? You know what i mean ...
So everything is paid there? And are you saying its impossible for me to get it on my device?

Yes of course it's paid else you could order a free GNex
And also yes it is possible to get it by using a US proxy but I don't see the point in doing so

With the same Market Unlocker Pro version I guess?
Well i will try to do that, just to settle my curiosity. Otherwise, i get your point that there is no benefit for doing that.
Lastly, Thank you very much for the prompt response. Appreciate it
