then use ur 'Mobile Data' connection (but i would not prefer it over 'WIFI' since its risky).

Searched some threads regarding the same and its been stated that ' U have to rename the OTA file to Update.zip and then flash the same from ur stock recovery.
But its again a risky affair if ur not sure about recovery flash as u may end up with BootLoop.

big problem cant unlock the phone !! help

------
Your first post in the I9100 forums is to ask for help unlocking your phone after you locked it and forgot your username?
Okay then.
The answer to your question is no.
P.S. What does gmail have to do with anything? Surely you mean Google?

You misunderstood my point. The phone is linked to a Google account, not a Gmail account.
Anyway, https://www.google.com/accounts/recovery/forgotusername
Go into recovery mode and do some wipes to get your phone back.

by default its gmail, 90% uses gmail and most im sure doesnt know what you are saying, plus using gmail is far better as your contacts get synced and you can edit or view them on your gmail.....
Do u hav a bckup of ur rom?if yes restore it.

flashing a kernel will not make any changes in your setting and will not boot up with new setup
normally when we enter wrong password or pattern it should allow you to enter again after few seconds, we dont understand what is happened in your case...

are you kidding us or waht????
flash a rooting kernel which also gives you a CWM, then get into CWM and make an nandroid backup, then flash the Rom,
there are some applcations to extract your apps and data from your nandroid backup

that's why i said you should post the details of the files you're trying to flash, then someone will help you check if you have the right files or not.
You can also post the link of where you got the files.
BTW, are you sure you killed kies in task manager before flashing?

Sony XGo wifi not working android 4.0.4 and 6.1.1.b.1.10

Hello guys
I recently updated my brand new phone with the application Sony suggests through my computer , the problem is that since then the WiFi doesn't work.To be more specific the WiFi button is grey and cannot be switched on, sometimes if I press it , it says activating WiFi and it just stays there and the WiFi doesn't open..
I have attempted several restarts but it didn't help.
I have to mention that recently I installed some options package for the internet that my service provider sent me .
Thank you very much for your time.
Ps:I found so similar threads but in their case the WiFi opens and they can't connect, so they didn't helped..

Wait till it goes above 65% n rerun the procedure, use wall charger rather usb powered charger to get quickly charged.. Seus is the correct way fr u if unsuccessful then there is manual method using software named flashtools

Just for future reference, it can take several minutes to boot after a flash so always be patient/walk away/make tea
