I cannot get any of the Android usenet clients that I have tried to work on
my Galaxy S3 (Jelly Bean). Can any subscriber to this group recommend a
reliable one?
TIA

My personal suggestion:
first of all you can Try
*NewsGroup Reader*
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.piaohong.newsgroup

...then if you are satisfied you can buy the payware version
*Usenet NewsReader*
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.piaohong.NewsReader
a bit expensive, but really smart and powerful.

Please note:
I'm not in business with Piao Hong, but I started to use it during
first free beta testing of payware version and I followed all the "work
in progress" enhancements.

A: Because it disturbs the logical flow of the message.
Q: Why is top posting frowned upon?
R: Perche' disturba il flusso logico della lettura
D: Perche' "postare sopra" e' tanto fastidioso?

It would be helpful if you told us which readers you've tried.

NZB Air, NewsGroups and Use Net

None of them will respond to the newsgroup that I access most often.
NewsGroups always responds with 'the server may be down' for example.
The setups are poor. For example if a 'Test' fails. The wholw screen blanks
and one has to restart the wholw process. Naff!
