Default Photon: what happened to PDA.Net

I am using Junes fabrics pda net tether version 3.02 and its the only way i can get on the net right now. Tonight I keep getting the little yellow triangle saying no internet access so i reconnect and its fine for a bit.
So i checked the market to see about an update for it thinking maybe that would be the problem and when i get to the page it says at the top this application is not available for your carrier?? what the heck is that crap? I payed the 15 dollars for the full version and now there saying i can't use it is that what it mean? what is sprint doing??? just really ticked please gimme some insight..

Your post almost had me panicked. I just reinstalled my phone yesterday and was going to download it again this morning. I also just paid for the full version 3.01, just 2 weeks ago.

I downloaded the new install 3.02 to my desktop and during the Windows installation, the app was automatically pushed to my phone. I did a couple of things first.

1. Set the USB debugging
2. Allow non Market apps

I am posting from a connection over PDANet right now.

Why is your first thought that this has anything to do with sprint?

I used it last week with no issues (except that I'm on the free version so no secured sites).

There's a USB tethering function built in to the phone, but I've not been able to get it running. I have a thread in this forum about that. Maybe that would be an option for you.

Anyone (especially the OP) can see exactly where I stand on this in the Motorola forums as of about 5 minutes ago... Party's over. Sprint is the fairest carrier left, and despite the fact that the handwriting is on the wall, cheaters won't stop until unlimited data is gone for good. I despise the sense of entitlement that pervades this issue.

and (hosin) like i said you know where i stand haha i haven't seen the slow network speed that you have and since i've only used PDA for maybe a month and a half now i haven't contributed to your slow service (he messed his phone up^^). Like i said my son will be born monday and i needed to do some research on the net. I posted it because I was curious so you have no business here not sure why you are..

Thanks to the rest of you guys I checked out the link wireless tether and barnacle to they got em. Thanks again.

You need to do some research on grammar, punctuation, and, most importantly, the terms of service of the contact you signed with Sprint.
