Hi everyone
I have a galaxy mini mobile, and I upgraded its firmware to android 2.3.4
I tried to make an ad-hoc connection with my laptop but the mobile couldn't detect it.. I knew over the internet that android doesn't support ad-hoc connections
And found many methods to enable it, but they were for earlier versions (as 2.2) and tested on another models (mainly HTC)
I downloaded a program from the market but it didn't work and after removing it, the mobile stopped working
Now I have re-installed the firmware (2.3.4) and I want to know if there is any working (safe) method for allowing ad-hoc connections (knowing that my mobile is rooted)
& thanks in advance
Problem Solved using "Connectify"
Hi,
I discovered a strange (or maybe not so strange) behavior on my S3 (I-9300) today:
As I restart my phone and wait for it to boot before I enter my PIN to unlock my SIM card, the language gets changed to German (Switzerland).
Now I am not sure where that comes from. Fact is, I bought this phone in Switzerland, and I have a Swiss phone provider (Lebara) that uses a Swiss network operator (Sunrise). My phone number is therefore also Swiss. However, I live in the French speaking region of Switzerland (I actually live in France about 200 yards away from the border), but not in the German speaking part.
Here is the funny part and also the reason why I only found out today (and this makes it hard for me to troubleshoot it): If I enter my PIN as soon as I practically can (i.e. I do not give my phone the time to fully boot, which is what I always did until today) the language setting is conserved (i.e. it sticks to English, which is my system preference).
Also, if I do not enter my PIN at all and I stay on the lock screen, the language also stays English. Once I enter it though, it switches to German like 2 seconds later.
Could it be possible that my language setting is somehow tied to:
my provider / phone number / network operator?
my location (I have location completely disabled btw) ?
my IMEI or some other device related information?
Has anybody experienced something similar?
I am using Android Revolution HD 29.0 btw...
Any comment is highly appreciated.Thanks!
Only initial language is dependant on your CSC and sim card, once changed it will stay. Reflash your rom or go back to stock to test.

Ok, here is what happened:
I observed this behavior after updating some of my apps via Google Play yesterday. So I suspect one of these updates triggered this odd behavior.
To further troubleshoot this, I turned on Flight Mode yesterday after booting my phone (and having changed the language back to English). As I turned off Flight Mode again, without rebooting the phone, the language switched back to German again.
This made me assume that it must somehow be related to GSM/my network operator. I do not select my network operator automatically, but I choose it manually (since I live close to the border and want to avoid roaming fees). So I went back into settings and selected my network operator manually again.
This resolved the issue. Language setting no longer gets reset after reboot.
Hope this helps someone who one day might face the same issue.
Thanks

The only app we have in common is SuperSU. Try setting your network operator again (Settings > More Settings > Mobile Networks > Network Operators)
Let me know if it does not work.

I'm running a custom rom on a samsung Galaxy tab plus and have been having exactly the same issue, originally it seemed triggered for me by turning of my bluetooth connection. I ended up reinstalling the rom and having thing work right step by step until google play did its updates which caused my language to reset to Russian.. After finding this thread and realizing we all have the same app in common " Super user"
This raised my attention where I went into the superuser app, I un installed Superuser and re installed a different superuser from Google play, this seems to have solved the issue, and my language is now not reset on reboot, hope this helps someone.
I tried to uninstall supersu and probl is fixd, but I need root and installed again supersu and problem no exists, pls help to solve.
Same thing is happening to me on my rooted touchwiz phone, it also has SuperSU installed and was recently updated.
It's running 4.1.2 and every other reboot it sets to english (UK) all by itself (that's it's default region)
So many system restores/wipes/restores over the last two days and thought it was just I that was getting it at first
So it happened again the other day. It is a SuperSU issues which has been addressed with the latest release.
Hi,
I had the same problem with Galaxy S III purchased from UK, flashed Czech version of stock rom (rooted) and czech SIM card. The language reverted from English to Czech after every restart. (Google Play store also asks me for another confirmation of the terms and Google voice typing is turned on after restart, although it may not be related to the problem.)
Updating SuperSU from Play store didn't help. Manually choosing my operator solved it (Settings > More Settings > Mobile Networks > Network Operators).
Still no solution!
Hi all,
OK, I notice that this thread is pretty old but still without a solution. Sadly I am not offering one, only concurring that my phone, not rooted, has the same problem. It is an Austrian sim card (3 network, German language as standard) and reverts to German with every on-off, restart or flight mode. Hopefully by now someone has solved this niggle as it appears to have been around for quite some time.
After trying factory reset and setting all apps, the phone settings and Apex to English without success, my assumption is that the sim card is to blame as I had an Austrian 3 sim in my last phone and had no problems at all.
BTW I have a new sim now (same provider and phone number) to unlock the NFC capabilities of the new phone.
Feedback would be greatly appreciated, a solution even more so!
Thanks
Hi,
I own the Leagoo Lead 1 (MTK6582 phone) and followed these instructions to root my phone
http://www.needrom.com/download/leagoo-lead-1/
Everything else works, but I have no network service. I tried everything, checking hidden settings (for radio setings), checking correct APN:´s, re-rooting etc.
I can either get the network to work via using "GSM only" (so no data connection and even SMS wont work)
or then using "WCDMA only", only data conneciton, no voice call possibility or SMS/MMS
This is really strange that both voice & data wont work at the same time!
Can someone please instruct me what I could do:
1. try to flash some other radio? I read there are some risks involved with this --> but what kind of radios could I try (I.e.could some HTC or Samsung specific radio work)
- if so, what should I name the .zip file for it to work in recovery (I tried putting one radio file to my external SD and flash it in recovery but it wont do anything)
2. Can I try to flash some random Android ROM to my phone and see if it works? I know this is a big risk but I searched the forum and found some "custom ROM"´s that might work on many devices.
3. Is there some way to edit the radio settings except the very basic options in hidden commands --> radio settings. (i.e. can it be related to me being in Finland vs. some other region?)
Thanks for your help.
Cheers.
Can any of you experts help me on this ?
thank you
Hi, i writted CM11 to s3 and I cannot use my mobile internet. I can use wifi without any problem, also I can use my mobile internet to PC via usb. Any solutions?
Tried to reinstall and update CM11
CM installed from stock 4.1.2
You'll probably just need to find your mobile providers APN for data and put that in, your provider will have the manual details. Usually the sim carries this information, perhaps sim toolkit may also have a feature to set this up.
And yes you can tether your mobile internet whether it be wifi or data:
-Install Samsung usb drivers. (if you haven't already, or the kies program)
-Plug in phone.
-Settings/Wifi/Wireless & networks area - More/Tick USB tethering.
It'll then just work.
If the instructions aren't exactly as I wrote, I'm basing that on the location in Lollipop. It's in a similar - if not exact location in KitKat.
So, the weirdest thing happened to me... I installed an app named WiFi Connection Manager from roamingsoft to play around, and I asked this app to blacklist my home wifi.
I then asked to un-blacklist it, but that failed, and ever since I cannot connect to my home wifi anymore: when I insert password it lists my wifi as "saved" but it won't connect.
Things I tried that did not work:
change wifi name
change wifi password
change wifi channel
reset bits and piece all the way down to factory reset the phone, install a different rom* and go back to original rom
* more on that below
Things I tried that did work:
change rom to lineage OS
change rom from android 9 to 8 (both original android one rom from the phone brand) (but going back to the original rom version 9 fails again, even tho I flashed form a newly downloaded file with nothing to do with the version I did somehow corrupt, and before I even logged in to android, so the phone did not even know it was the same user)
change the security of my wireless from wpa2 to something else (wpa/wpa2 for example)
oddly enough if I change wifi settings to have the same wifi name shared between my 2.4ghz and my 5ghz wifi, my phone will connect to the wifi, and it will connect using the 5ghz (the problematic one).
---
i also have the feeling a corruption to my nfc happened at the same time, but I don't know for sure, in case someone knows of a connection between the two problems let me know, but the nfc never worked on other roms.
When I flash a new image I flash a number of partitions including one named bluetooth, so I can't imagine which partition I am leaving untouched that has the blacklist in it...
Does anyone have an idea how an app -even if it had root privileges- could cause such low level damage, and more importantly how I could fix it?
