S3 sets proxy automatically - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys,
Facing a really odd issue. My s3 keeps on setting 127.0.0.1:3128 as a proxy for all wifi connections. I did complete format and still it is setting it automatically and does not allow me to browse Web due to that.
Any I've else having this issue or knows a solution for this? ?

There isn't an option to set a proxy in wifi settings, you'll have to explain the problem better.
Alternatively flash the latest stock rom using odin and then factory reset, this will reset the phone to a default state.

Well, never knew that option was there. Mine is set to none, if you can't change yours or it won't stick then your rom is probably corrupt, like most glitches which appear. Wipe and reflash.

[Q] MMS stuck at Downloading (ATT)

Hey guys,
I have had my Vibrant for about 3 weeks and just started encountering the problem today. I received an MMS but it is stuck in downloading. I had no problems before today, and nothing has changed. I tried rebooting the phone. I tried turning off automatic retrieval and manually downloading the message.
Any suggestions?

I can't send them either
try it with STOCK music player first, then see if it works.
Are you on 3g? Might be an issue when the phone switches between edge and 3g
Yes I'm on 3g with full bars.

It is on. And I am able to use all other internet including email. Just not MMS
Bump
Vibrant + Bionix + Bali
Have you tried going to Settings>Applications>Manage applications>click on "all">scrool down and find messaging>clear data. Worth a try.

Have you tried a factory reset or Odin and reflash? Looks like that's what to try next.
Also, when you locate messaging in manage applications there should be an option to turn on compatibility mode. Maybe try that??

[Q] My phone keeps saying that an update is available but won't let me download

Sorry if this has already been discussed but I could not find mention of it anywhere.
My phone keeps saying that an update is available but it won't let me download it via my 4g connection. It tells me to change the settings, but for the life of me I cannot find the settings it is referring to. Has anyone had this happen to them, and more importantly, does anyone know how to change the settings?

Anyone?????
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk
Are you using miui? If so open the downloads app and uncheck "use wifi". Otherwise what is it telling you to change?
I'm on the unrooted stock rom and all it says is that I need to change my settings so I can download via 3g-4g. I have looked through all the stock settings and can't figure it out for the life of me.

Check your market settings. You must have download apps over wifi only checked.

I believe what we are( yes me too! ) experiencing is wrong 3G settings. If you are getting an android market download error 500, I think it could either be a very slow connection or wrong proxy, so you just have to navigate to the wireless settings and delete the mobile network settings for smsc and access point names and get a full new settings from the network by asking them for one (usually through an sms)
I had the same problem, saying I can only download from the market via wifi (getting my Razr to connect to it is another story)
I did this:
Settings -> Data Manager -> Data Saver (turned it off)

Plz help my xps căn connect to linksys wifi but cant not connect to internet

I meant, what do you do to connect to the internet on your PC.
Try using a static IP address and inputting both DNS servers from your service provider as well as the correct gateway and subnet, works for me at work where DHCP is useless
I tried your way many time but still nô internet, so strange!
Is there any way to wipe wifi settings?

NOOOOO, I TRIED ALL YOUR WAY, AND MY WAY, BUT IT CAN NOT, WHILE OTHER ssid CAN!!
AND HOW DO I DO?
happen to me once, connected to wifi but cant connect to internet
my solution, delete whatever apn setting you have ( i know, apn do not have any link with wifi connection) but yet,
i delete all my apn setting.
then go to setting > application > manage application > tab the all > browser > and hit the clear data, clear cache and clear default.
forget all the network. (delete em all)
turn off wifi connection.
turn off my XPS by hitting both power button and volume up button.
and my problem solved.
if nothing seem to work for you. well factory reset is you last option
if you manage to connect to wifi after switching on you cell and do all the above, i suggest you hit the play store 1st before hitting browser. why ? because my girlfriend having this weird problem on her galaxy y 2.3... connected to wifi but cant connect to the internet. but when she suddenly hit the play store, the problem with browser seem to fix automatically.

Is there anything else left?
You can try reflash the latest firmware using odin.

Have you tried
Settings/more settings/mobile data/automatic connections, make sure the box is not checked.
~Samsung Galaxy SIII (SPH-L710) - Blazer ROM v1.6 - TWRP~
If you are in the UK, update your modem to LH1 , I had this and lh1 was released to address this problem
Still haven't found a solution. Back to stock rom now and back to samsung for repair i guess.
I have the same issue (stock, unrooted, factory unlocked) and I have the LG8 modem. Only started after the latest OTA update which took me to LG8. It's not my router because I can make a 20 minute Skype call on my wife's iPhone and on this phone it cuts out after a minute or so, every time. Even as I'm typing this, I see the message on my screen telling me I'm reconnecting to my router every couple of minutes. Very frustrating.

Did WORK with ARHD 3.0!!! THX Mine problem solved!!!
I'm still trying to fix mine.
When i'm near my router/modem it can connect and download at slow speed. When I move away I lose connection.
And after a reboot or just when trying to connect from a further distance I get: authentication error occurred.
Even with my open network.
I think it started happening after the installation from the first OTA JB.
Maybe installing this one again could help?
