I'm just curious if there is an Android app simliar to TIKL that can actually communicate with nextel's push to talk. My dad and I do a lot of side jobs together and his phone has push to talk and it would make life a lot simplier if I could make use of it from my Epic.
Nope. You could get a Nextel Android phone to do iDEN PTT, or alternatively move him to Android or iOS supported phone to TiKL on. No integration between the two.

I have seen the Verizon commercials for the droid advertising the Skype Mobile app. Is it possible to use this on a Sprint Hero? My little brother is in the Army and is over seas and this is the only way I can reach him. I have it on my computer but would love it on my phone. If this is possible and someone has the .apk file I would appreciate it if you could upload it onto here for me.

PM me and I'll send you the apk.
will it even work on the hero?
just wondering?
You can use Fring also (there's a skype portion for that).
just went to the market and they took Skype off Fring.

Don't bother using the Skype app.
I installed the Eris apk ons it detects you are not on Verizon and quits with an error message.
I'm using nimbuzz, it is pretty good. I liked fring more before Skype went away.

Hello,
I got the Samsung Captivate phone from AT&T but I cannot get Skype on there, it is only available for Verizon android phones, but is there a way to get Skype on my AT&T phone nonetheless?
I think its only available on 2.2...so that might be your problem.

Yep gotta update your rom. I would suggest andromeda personally, its my favorite so far

Wireless tether is basically stealing. Full props to verizon for finally blocking it. And gnesoid was taken down by he developer it is not being blocked by verizon.

Explain this to me. How is this stealing?
Is using Google Navigator stealing because VZW has VZ Navigator which they charge a monthly fee to use?
We pay $30+ for our data package, we shouldn't have to pay additional fees to use that same data.

Sigh. They [verizon] never blocked it, the developer pulled it on request of sega. Verizon might piss you off at times, but they don't care about a video game emulator to a 20+ year old system, lol. However...the former console company that hasn't really done much since they retired the said system might want to complain...
So why was Gensoid taken down? According to the developer, it was at the request of Sega. They must have contacted Google and gotten the emulator taken off the market. What exactly Sega claimed in order to take it down isn't know as Google usually isn't forthcoming with details, just general overviews, when asked. The next question is, why now?

It's also obvious if you search the market on your computer (not your phone). Wireless tether is still there if you use a browser, gensoid is not.

Stealing
Charging customer more money to tether to another device is stealing. Way I look at it, we already pay for 5gb of data (some unlimited). Wireless carriers should let us tether to any device we want to our data limit. I pay for my data plan and should be able to use any way I want to up to the carriers limit.
Barnacle Wifi Tether is still in there at least, i always liked that better anyways.
Just put your phone in airplane mode and turn wifi on and go to the market you will then be able to see all tether apps.

Hi? Does anyone knows how to edit the default verizon voicemail number? I noticed that even if a dial *86 the display number is different. Is there a way to edit it? In my contacts appear like voicemail but it doesn't give me the options to edit.
Appreciate any help.
If you go into ##program, I remember seeing the number for voicemail section. You should be able to override there.

Have you had any issues with it? I was using it (moderately) then one of my friends claimed it completely messed up his iPhone (on AT&T). Eventually calling him would forward the call to some woman, lol.

as long as you allow GV to do the work, it's nearly impossible to screw up. GV will pull in your GV phone number and perform the VM forwarding command for you. You shouldn't even have to worry if your GV phone number matches what was assigned to you, everything is automatic.
Na. He's actually a real big nerd. But I do believe he messed up and wouldn't take blame, lol.

As long as you take the 10 minutes to set it up, it works great!
I have used it moderately as I said. I just never used it I guess like some others seem to. I just used it so clients I was doing work for could txt me a bunch n not actually blow up my phone. Id stop forwarding and just use the google voice site.

Dial *72 and your home number. To turn it off dial *73.
It's built into your Verizon plan. Something like *72.
Edit: wow I'm too slow
Does that code money or does it just use my minutes or is it minutes plus something
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using XDA App
Already included unless you have some weird plan. It will use your minutes as if you were on the cell phone. So nights & weekends + mobile 2 mobile + family & friends should be freeeeeee.
I think I saw an app that handles this for you... but my style has just been to add a contact called ForwardtoHome and set the phone number as the entire string. I also have one called UnforwardtoHome.
Another option that's pretty awesome is Google Voice. Check it out if you don't already know.
I have Google voice but there is not a feature that I know of that forwards to another window

so it look as thought i just added my home phone google voice but the only problem is that when people call my actually cell number that doesn't really get forwarded at all..

Yeah you need to tell everyone you got a new number and distribute your Google Voice number. I did it a year ago and it's awesome! If you set it up properly you can put your google voice number as friends & family and have free calls through google voice.
Cool man yeah I have had one for about year but too many people to distribute to bit the thing I am noticing is that my home phone only ring twice before it goes to voicemail anyway to fix this? ?

There's no setting in GV for this. Maybe your answering machine is picking up? Dunno, that's weird, I don't have that issue.
