OK so some if the ROMs give you a choice of installing it , my question is what exactly is it ? And what can I do with it ?lol sorry for such a noob question but I always deactivated it or uninstalled it because I didn't know what to do with it lol thank much
Is it free or pay to use ?

It's free online storage for files for you. They give you 2gb to start with

Dropbox is a cloud storage solution that allows you to store your files in the cloud and be able to access them anywhere across all of your devices (so as long as you have the application). It's similar to Microsoft SkyDrive and Box. You get 2GB free, and you can buy more storage later if you need it. Some OEMs have deals with Dropbox to net you more storage (Like HTC and Samsung, but only for specific devices, too). It's harmless and provides a safe haven for your files.

Well I am currently running Froyo 2.2 rooted on my Captivate. I have no internet at home so I am reduced to tethering via usb. What is a cheap way to do this? I have tried renameing/deleteing the tetheringmanager but didnt work.
Even links to forums that could help me would be appreciated, and I wont mind using a rom or something else as long as its free lol
Thanks for the help

Flash a rom. They all have it enabled by going around at&t

Any good ones that you have tried?

Loaded question
I have flashed nearly everyone available. They are all good in their own right. Telling you one is best or better is mostly opinion. Depends on what you are looking for especially in appearance. The one I would avoid for a first timer is cm7, which is what I am running but is not as easy to flash.
Look at captivate development. Take a look at the Roms available.

Thanks for the info! And what I am mostly looking for is usability and tethering lol it could look beautiful but if it lags, cant support flash 10.1, and you can't barely do anything with it besides call and text then it ain't for me lol

Abd another reason I ask cause since I don't have internet..i brick I screwed..
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897
You are right and I would not flash without internet.
Maybe someone can provide a safer option
Sent from my Captivate using XDA Premium App
That is what I am thinking..
Plus I have yet to try flashing because of having no internet.
If I could find possibly someone that knows how to change APK files and change the file tetheringmanager114.apk and just install it so it allows it to use the mobile AP and usb tethering no problem but I have yet to find it or a forum with an idea how to.

My friend has a jailbroken iPhone and has a really cool app called Cylay (if you don't know what it is, Google it. In essence, it's an anti-theft app that can do a bunch of cool stuff). I was wondering if there was an equivalent in the Market (I refuse to call it by its new name)?

A good one is SeekDroid.
It is on sale right now, you can locate phone, track it on a map, wipe the phone, etc. I think it is one worth looking at.
Preyproject.com has an app for android.
Actually, your HTC Sense account can do all that remote lock or wipe your phone, as well as geolocate via the website. It just has to be set up properly.

Well then, how do I "set it up properly"?
Sent from my HTC PH39100 using xda premium
I wouldn't go the HTC Sense route, they sent out an email telling me to download my data because it's shutting down for a overhaul. Google it, you'll see. Besides it says it doesn't support ICS at this time anyways.
I have SeekDroid & Avast installed on my Vivid. SeekDroid you can control from internet or another phone, Avast can only be done via another phone, but has more features.

That's the one! I've tried it and even went on to pretend my phone was lost/stolen, and was able to locate on a map on my laptop with and without GPS active. I think its awesome. Also its free if you use for 1 device (or one device per account).

Wheres my Droid pro is pretty nice, you can lock, unlock, make ring, locate, wipe phone, wipe SD, sim lock, and there's more stuff I just can't remember.
Oh and you can do this all via text message commands from any phone that texts, maybe even from sending a text via Facebook, or the wheres my Droid website if you set up commander.

The Klink app works great with the HTC one for tethering without root.
It does require you to set it up on the computer you're tethering with, and the phone.
Long time lurker and I haven't hit the post requirement for link posting, just search Klink in the play store.
I'm not sure if this is common knowledge, if so please let the post sink and disregard it.
I just purchased based on your opinion..it's Pretty good ..thanks

It appears you can usb tether with sense too, just need to install HTC sync manager and enable usb sync in the phone settings.
I didn't bother installing HTC sync manager, so couldn't confirm yet. But information seems that it'll work.

If this is true I just wasted 5 bucks lol..But best thing about this app is the function of appearing as a mobile device to your carrier

I am glad USB tethering works. I have been using EasyTether on my Moto Photon for about 1.5 years without a single problem. very stable.
It's my first time hearing of Klink.... is it stable?

I'm trying to bypass at&t block on tethering apps in order to use my plan with my tablet as well. I rooted my phone, but every app i downloaded appears to be blocked from accessing my phone connection by at&t (they charge separately for that "honor").
Any suggestion?
Thanks

If you want to use stock ROM, there's a WiFi tether fix in the AT&T Development forum.

Both posts found in the AT&T One Development forum. Both on first page and one thread apart. Seems to me like you didn't really bother looking or using the search function. Took me less than two minutes to find the threads and post this reply.
Most others will tell you to search on your own, so you might want to get familiar with using the forum and it's capabilities.
