I just bought the phone in India a couple of days back. I wanted to update the phone s/w, from currently v10c, to v 10d. But every time I try and after accepting all the terms and conditions, midway through the process I get a message that the phone don't support S/W update. I have installed all the necessary driver. The programs recognises my phone. It even tells me that there is S/W update available for my phone. What could be the problem? Am I missing any setting on the phone that is restricting it from updating? Help me out please.
ok
1.first go to settings->applications->development-> now check usb debugging..
2. connect phone to computer
3. 2 notifications will pop up
4. turn on usb mass storage
5. do the usual steps necessary that u did before
Thank You so much it worked. The usb debugging option needed to be checked. But the mass storage option needed to remain unchecked. Its now updated to android 2.2.2. And contrary to what others have said about slowing down the system, I think it made my phone faster and snappier after the initial booting process. I highly recommend updating the phone to this version. And thanks for ur reply zeemar007.
There is one more thing I wanted to know. I have synced my contacts with google. and I have changed the settings in the display option to show contacts only in my gmail account. But still for certain contacts it shows the phone pc sync copy of the contacts as well while for some it don't. Cause of this the details of these contacts show the birthday twice with the same date. When I go to edit of these contacts it shows both gmail and phone pc sync. How do I correct it to show only Phone Pc sync. Even though all the contacts have a copy in the gmail account and in the phone this happens to only few contacts. What could be the issue? Is this some bug?

u can do this (NOT RECOMMENDED!!!)
1. DELETE ALL UR CONTACTS FROM PHNE MEMORY i.e clear the contacts
2. now synchronyse ur phone via pc
3. this way u will get what u want 2 c in contacts
if u use wifi, 3g or data connections then deactivate gmail synchronysation.. from contacts or else ur gmail contacts will showup in ur contacts list..

I've searched the forum and couldn't find any thread related to my problem.
Problem:Android market says "You don't have any devices." but i have installed 100s of apps from 'Market app' on the phone,
I am logging in with same google account.
Is there any solution for my problem.? Is anyone else facing the same..
One more thing, ' Market App' on my phone, it is working very slow. i have fast internet connection (Wi-fi) even than it take 5-7 minutes for 'searching' and 'Loading'. Is it normal?
P.S. My device is new, nothing is rooted or changed. Its right out of the box as samsung build it.
I have found this, seems i am not alone.,
Any body on XDA facing same problem??
I'm not sure if this will help but have you tried going to settings- applications - manage applications - all tab- market- uninstall updates.
Might be worth a try for a start.
There no option of " Uninstall Updates" in 'all tab- market-'
Its new phone, I`m facing this problem since DAY-1,
Any expert on XDA can help me here..
Will rooting my device help? Or ROM change?

Rooting will make no difference. I'm not really sure why you are having this problem. Maybe somebody else may have some ideas.
You could try downloading the new market. Google market v3.1.3 and install that.
If you are still unable to solve the problem you could try the reset code in phone dialer *2767*3855#
This will totally reset your phone to factory settings as a last resort.
I've installed Market 3.1.3 as u said, but now, nothing is loading up in market, and after 1-2 mins it says, "Connection time up" [retry]. Internet is working fine on other apps, like stock browser or YouTube.
I uninstalled the new market app.
Back to ground ZERO.
Like I said you could try *2767*3855#
In phone dialer. However this will reset your phone and delete everything.
I know this will be useless, cos, when i just bought the device and faced the problem i did reset to factory setting by *2767*3855# , and nothing happens...
ANyway, thanks for ur help..

Ah ok sorry I can't help.
same problem here...
very annoying since I love installing apps through the market web site.
anyway we can still download and install apps directly with the market App
Is there any solution to this problem?
Hi this is something to do with google services framework.
Yesterday I have tried clearing this data related to google services framework..to get 4.0.4 update but..nothing worked and I am ended up with your issue. May be updating phone software may solve the problem.
I can't believe there is still no solution for this problem....

I just flashed a new version of a ROM (on Galaxy III) but I got the no device message from my PC. I tried to clear data for Framework services and Play store no luck. Tried this suggestion and it worked right away! Thanks!
Hello Comunity,
I flashed ICS on my SGSII like 1 or 2 weeks ago it was working great, even Android Market updated to Play Store and it was working OK.
My SGSII is International Version, not locked. It's not rooted. Bought in Dubai, got to change the Sales Code to UK (UAE was not available since it was a European ROM?) when I flashed with the ICS.
Last night (23rd March 2012) I was trying to download some free apps from Play Store App and it was displaying Error -101, for several attempts and for different apps. Keep in mind that yesterday I did not use Play Store, also the system did not update anything during the day.
Tried Clearing cache and data of Google Play/Market.
I got the screen that says Android Market is upgrading to Google Play.. blah blah blah.. press continue
But then after that now Play Store is not connecting, it says Server Error, with a Retry Button.
Tried again Clearing cache and Data... no success. Same Server Error.
Restarted the phone... no success. Same Server Error.
Tried deleting my google account and enter it again... no success... and guess what? Same Server Error.
This started approx @ 1900-2000 GMT +3. Let's see if tonight it fix by itself (but I don't think so, since the 24 hrs ban due to excess downloading from the Store is dismissed).
Any ideas how to solve this?
I was having this problems yesterday (Friday). So I cleared data on Play Store app, deleted market links with Ti. Then I rebooted & used the Market Doctor in Ti to restore those links, then rebooted again.
Decided to leave it overnight before I gave the Market another try, and I've just tried it now. No problems at all updating apps (not getting that 101 error), and apps are correctly linked to Market again; have all my apps in installed/updated (before I did that thing with Ti yesterday, Market had nothing in "installed", everything was in "All").

Excuse my ignorance, but what is Ti?
Titanium Backup Pro It has market tools which can come in handy. Not saying it will definitely fix your problem (or that it definitely fixed mine; may have been coincidence), but it might.

Not yet... I just downloaded Ti apk and patcher, but I will need to root my phone... I just don't want to switch to the Dark Side. I'll wait until tonight to root it, or maybe when I get home (April) since I'm overseas and I don't want to lose the only Communication Tool (My precious SGSII) that I have to contact home. Need to read a lot 'bout rooting.
As soon as it's fixed will let you now in this thread.
Yep let us know how you go with it. That way we can confirm whether what I did yesterday fixes this problem or not. Good luck
Edit to add - Almost forgot. If you do use the market tools in Ti, only use them for user apps & not system apps.

I already rooted my phone, so i used the "advance task killer" and kill all pps and somehow I got it working again. But I know this is a galaxy SII section but I just wanted to let you know my galaxy tab 10.1 still have the same issue. server error with the retry button. I used something closed to advance task killer but still didn't work. So bottom line, I still don't know how to resolve this problem. Looking forward to what you can come up with.
I have same Server Error on my both Galaxy Note and Motorola Razr.I tried everything including Factory reset but still same issue.
It seems that google needs to setp in and fix this issue.

Mmm, I'm using WIFI in this country. I tried two different ISP (in the same country) and the problem is still there.
By the way, when I flashed to the ICS, changed the Sales Code from UAE to UK (using the numpad with the IMEI thing)... If I do it again, is not the same thing? for example from UK to Poland somewhere in Europe (since the ICS flash is Europe)...
Thanks dude...

Been having the 'Server Error - RETRY' issues for the past 2 days and even tried manually installing the latest play store 3.5.15 with no luck.
Changed to US - Verizon using Market Enabler and all was well, was able to launch Play Store and update my applications... well all expcept Root Explorer which was giving a download failed error, but i'm sure I'll get this going shortly.

If you said you 'flashed' to ICS... you may not be too far away from rooting.
Visit ChainFire's thread to find a suitable insecure kernel, i used CF-Root-SGS2_XX_XEO_LPQ-PROPER-v5.4-CWM5.zip (post #8) and be sure to read the 1 line of instruction in post #1 - ODIN (short).

Guys, I had the same problem for 24 hours and believed me, I tried everything that has been suggested by this thread but it didn't do anything. Somehow I got everything up and running on its own. I truly believe it was a problem from the google side. So I guess, you just have to wait until they fix the server.
Cheers.
Glad that ME worked for u.
It seams that there is no Root Explorer app in US market... Not sure if its deleted from market.

bojancincur You are a genius!!!.
I did the VPN thing and it worked!!!! Right now updating AndroZip File Manager XD
Thank you.
When I read your blog, I was going to connect to my company VPN through Juniper's Network connect and share the internet connection from my laptop to the SGSII.
How to know which market my phone is connecting to?
Is it, by deault, connecting to the country assigned in the Sales Code?
But stop working once you disconnect from the VPN. I think I will change the Sales Code once I get home (since it involves a data wipe)
Play Store - Server Error
I'm Also having the same issue where in South America, Guyana with several other friends. Unable to access Android Market/Play Store since sometime last week. Its now Monday 3/26/2012 and still not able to access play store except "Server Error with retry button". Is this a problem on Google's side? If so, when will this issue be resolve. I have also tried Market Enabler but still NO LUCK!...I have Rooted Samsung Galaxy.

Are you using the same rom file to reflash or have you tried to redownload the rom? If you haven't redownloaded it, give that a try and reflash, your original file may be corrupt thus not allowing you to access google. If you re-DL and still have the same issue, try an older version of the rom or a different one to troubleshoot your problem. If you have the same issue with an older version or a different rom you know its not an issue with the rom but rather your phone.

:good::good::good: I have solution for our problem Just : If you have freedom, you don't need to delete it to fix your phone,you should have a rooted phone obviously, simply download or go into file manager and go to etc/ there should be a file in there called Hosts. Delete that.
Google is now work fine , wifi icon is BLUE :angel::good::good::good:
Hi guys, I have discovered a solution
but you must have root
download root explorer
1.go to system folder
2.go to etc folder
search for hosts file, open it and delete all things related to google.
:laugh:
ok its and old thread, but maybe someone find this useful:
Enable automatic time in settings, thats all.
Any news?
I traded my HTC One to a guy and he is having this same problem. Can get cellular and data, but can't connect to google. Does this Hosts file thing work?
awesome!

I have had two devices which have been lost ,I have obtained 2 new sim cards and loaded whats app on to a new device for each phone.
I deleted my whats app account ( this would then remove old whats app data and chats from old device app ?)
I logged on to google drive and removed any access to whats app and deleted all back ups
I then changed my mobile numbers to further secure a the chances of no restall and back up as account number is dead !
My question is this - despite all my efforts will there still be a chance back up data will be stored on the file maanger ?
If YES then how long does it stay for ? I have deleted items which are a few weeks old , should they have been over written ? Will all the data be Unretrievable?
Thanks

My question is this - despite all my efforts will there still be a chance back up data will be stored on the file maanger ?
If YES then how long does it stay for ? I have deleted items which are a few weeks old , should they have been over written ? Will all the data be Unretrievable?
Thanks

If you deleted your old WhatsApp account the chats are unrecoverable
Maybe FBI can bring them back
So Be relax
BTW: did you tried to reset factory with FMM(find my mobile)?

So if the police have tech to find it then others can download and use that tech :-/ is this a real possibility even after someone has deleted their account ?
Ps the FMM thing only works if your phone is switched on , if I have disconnected my sim in the device there is no data going to it , do they need a WIFI connection to extract the data ???

Oh I see
"They " as in anyone who is tech savy and finds my device .
My issue for peace of mind is this .....
Is there software anywhere that can break passwords ?
Is there software that can extract data by passing the pass code of your device ?
Does the device need to be switched on for DATA extraction and if so does it need to be connected somehow to the WIFI or connect online ?
If I can remote wipe my device , but it is switched off , would it matter if they can extract data while it is not connected online or to the WIFI ?

Did you ever enable USB debug at dev option?
If yes there is a way to unlock your phone
And if not they can't do any thing at all
Data removal from android

I'm guessing that the fact I have no idea what that means is to assume I didn't do it ..... I'm not the most tech savy of people so would not have known how to do this on a Samsung ?
Well that is a little reassuring if they can not by pass with any software ..... I've read so much stuff on the Internet saying that people can use all kinds of tech to break into phones ect !!
If I do use the remote wipe option but it says" trying to connect" does this mean it is switched off or off line and that they will need to switch it on if they want to take the data or get in and that will set the remote wipe into action ?
Thanks
