Nope.  Once the app is installed, its on your phone. There could be something wrong with the app code. Heck, maybe it even has an expire date. This is all new to me, so it may take some time to get it right.  Not sure why it still works on Tammy's phone.

I just had my son download the file from the server and install it on his phone, and it worked fine. 

Is it when you try to enter the forum is is failing, or the whole app?  Did you recently get an android update on your phone?

The stupid thing is like Windows, it updates apps all the time.

The message listed above comes up from the first poke of the app icon.

 If you go in to your apps you can set it so it doesn't do auto updates. It should be the first thing that pops up on your screen when you open the app.
 Androids are pretty simple to use, I use a few apps for business and they sure come in handy while I'm on the go.

If you can install off market apps, you are welcome to try the version I'm working on now.  the download is

http://www.forestryforum.com/forumonefive.apk

If you've installed the first version, uninstall that and install this, then refresh data on the new install.

My wife just installed it on my verizon comando android, and it seems to work fine.  Thanks for making this available Jeff.   Shoot, thanks for making the whole forum to begin with.  It's like going to college without paying for it with professors who actually want to be here and do it for free!!!  Thanks again.

Your new phone has keys? I key text in on the screen. Only one finger. Poke, poke,poke. It adds punctuation,caps and comes up with suggested words as I poke letters in.

Granddaughter has a phone with keyboard. I think she can thumb 300 words a minute while eating and watching TV.
