[Q] Help me please !! - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I will simply tell u what is my problem .
Since i don't have a WIFI connection and i only have a wired connection , I downloaded a program called : Virtual Router Manager which turns my laptop into a hotspot .
My sister's blackberry curve 8520 detected this network and it is working fine.
But when i use my galaxy mini it detects the network and connects to it with 4 bars signal but when i try to load any page there is no connection ( No Traffic ) .
*It actually works for 10 sec then there is no traffic and when i disable it and re-enable it works for another 10 secs then no traffic again .
I hope u guys can find a solution for my problem soon and thanks in advance

Your device probably has issues with the network (ad-hoc). Try using Connectify, and if the problem persists, then we'll take it from there.

Didn't Work

I can't use this method since my phone isn't rooted.
Isn't there any another method ?

To make your phone ad-hoc capable, no, you'd have to root it (you need to be able to replace the wpa_supplicant which requires writing to the system partition).

OK thanks for every thing

1. Try with other wifi places.
2. Try reflash again.
3. Do you use JIT? Disable it.

[Q] New version of Kies doesnt recognize official firmware

Hi everyone. Today i updated new version of Kies 2.0.3.1182_152. I tried several official firmwares, but Kies says 'S/W in your phone is not the official version. Unofficial version cannot be updated... Does anyone know what to do?
Yes, flash the official firmware and hard reset the device

maybe you forgot to set the proper country code (csc) in the dialer type *#272*your imei# then choose the country you got the phone in. take note you must use your original country's firmware.

But I think on Android devices, in most cases fault is not belong to Samsung, but to Google (Android Dev Team)...For example..I still have a wifi problem...Even in Service Center it couldnt be solved..They dont know what is the problem...I thought i am the only one that have wifi problem but not, look at this...http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=1386#makechanges...From here is known that most problems is Android faults...
(My Wi-Fi problem is..in this days i have noticed a problem with my Samsung Galaxy S II.
Sometimes I have the gsII connected to my router but internet connection doesn't work.
I'll try to explain better what i mean... I start wifi on my gsII and use internet connection without problem. Then I set the phone in standby mode leaving wifi on. When after a while i want to use internet connection, it doesn't work. The telephone is still connected to my router but i can't use internet on the phone.
The only way to make internet connection work is to disable wifi e then reactivate it.
This is really frustrating....
I've got the telephone from three months but only now I'm noticing this problem because first I used to disable the wifi and activate it only when i need it.)

Unchek the USB Debug ( Menu->Settings->Applications->Development ) mode and try again. This will solve the Kies error message.

Hey guys! I am having this same issue. I got an update from Vodafone Spain and it gave me many errors, (2.3.6) and battery life was not as good. So I downloaded the original firmware, and now KIES doesn't recognize it. So I tried this method and it only says "ATL" on it, and then... Oh shucks! Here's a screen shot.
I downloaded it from sammobile.com and it says
I9100BUKE5 ## EXT4.PIT 2.3.3 2011 May DOWNLOAD
CSC is blank. But that's the version I had, and also:
http://hotfile.com/dl/120766439/6afee0e/I9100_VDF_I9100BUKE5.rar.html
That's my carrier. But the CSC on my phone says ATL. I don't know what this means, but now KIES won't recognize its version anymore .... Any ideas?
Update: Vodafone Spain is ATL! OK... So it reads it fine, but .... why can't KIES recognize the firmware?
Thanks

doesn't have to root your phone to use odin.. and put your phone in download mode then odin can detect the device

So it's the firmware update that's causing the error. And i wana know whether if i use odin and flash my phone back to 2.3.5 will i lose all the apps that r installed on the phone ?

The usb connectivity issue got fixed automatically .. Don't know how but today when i connected to the computer it automatically installed the drivers and i was good to go ..
Now that it got fixed i need to root my phone . And i only have experience rooting my earlier phone Xperia X8, could you tell me the steps i should follow to root and the files needed as well as where to get them . And as u see my phone is GT-I9100G so the files on the ordinary S2 won't work on mine .. And i am scared that i might brick my phone lol . So help me out here .. Ty

actually there isn't really any proper root for i9100G.. but the post before is the easiest method already.. just flash the kernel using odin by ticking the PDA slot and put this GKernel http://www.mediafire.com/?vudqw1fd711uov8... after that your phone should boot itself.. after booting your phone will have CWM and superuser by that means its rooted..
I have a similar problem like this..... i am unable to connect my i9100g to pc via usb after i updated my software to XWLC2..... is there a way to correct this? my mobile is not rooted and i updated it through the Update Software feature in the mobile....

I Soft Bricked My Phone

I'm not sure my s3 bricked or not, yesterday i try to flash a new firmware MC3. But it was fail after, i was trying to flash older firmwares but it didn't work either.

Make sure you put your phone in download mode, and also Samsung USB Drivers installed on your PC. Try other USB cable if it did'nt work. Redownload the firmware, maybe it is a corrupted file
If you can boot into recovery then format data and cache, that might make the phone bootable again. If that doesn't help then boot into download mode as above and flash the correct stock rom via odin.
If it won't boot into download then you have a hard brick, service centre repair required.

Does anyone know how to run triangle away on SGS 3 without downloading additional data? The point is that I bricked my device, somehow lost IMEI and put phone into factory mode, wifi doesn't work, the same goes for mobile networking. I'd like to give it back to where I bought it from but in Odin mode you can see that the custom binary download is yes (10 counts). In other words I'd appreciate it if you told me what to do to return the device and get it fixed or replaced. Thank you.

Do not spam the forums, I have deleted your posts. Did it ever cross your mind that the best way to get an answer would be to create your own thread in the Q&A forum and give as much detail in there as you can? If it didn't cross your mind then I would suggest doing it.

Is it bricked? please help

Hello guys.
To cut it short, I found an old note 3 pro in a drawer, it was my dad's and I wanted to just tinker with it.
The problem is, my dad forgot the password, and the wifi on the phone is not working (don't know if it is a software or hardware problem).
No big deal I thought, and I factory reset it.
Now, on startup, it tells me to ''activate'' the device by prompting in the password for the xiaomi account linked, which is not possible since the wifi is not working (aka no internet), and it is not possible to activate data and just use 4g.
Not possible to flash a rom through fastboot, usb debugging wasn't enable and my pc doesn't see it.
What should I do to save it?
