Samsung :: Advance (A885) - Blocking Internet Access?
Jul 7, 2010
Does anyone know how to block Internet access on this phone? Despite using the device exclusively for phone calls and texting, Telus keeps billing me for data usage. I have requested that they disable Internet access on my phone, which they claim to have done. But now they tell me they can't guarantee that the phone won't be able to access the Internet. Dumb, or what? Are there internal settings on the phone that will disable this function, but not prevent me from phoning or texting?

How would I install java games on a Samsung Advance (A885) ? I dragged some jar and jad files to the microsd card but when I pressed on them in the phone, it said it was an invalid file type.

I recently purchased a Samsung SGH-A256 phone to replace my old one that died. I got it cause the phone was cheap and I could just stick my SIM card in and be done with it. Anyway, I tried using the internet with it and it keeps saying "Error: Network Unavailable". I assume it's cause the phone uses the Edge network up here and I don't have access to it on my current plan (my old phone was a Sony Ericsson). So my question is: can I change the APN from internet.com to something and access the internet? Sorry, I'm a little foggy here but like I said, I'm new to all this. I've been trying to look around and find out what this APN business is but all the websites I find don't really explain it.

My S2 is on 3 UK.
For some reason i cannot connect to the mobile internet when the connection is showing 3g. It will only connect when it is showing H or H+.
Also for some strange reason, the internet connection wont work at all if i havent used it for a few hours. To get back internet you have to go to flight mode and back or switch off and on to get back online.

I'm not sure if this is a problem with my SG2 or my SKY router but occasionally despite all my other WiFi items in the house all being able to access the internet, every now and then despite my SG2 showing a good strong WiFi signal I get no connection. To resolve the matter I have to unplug the router and restart it.

I can access the internet through my WiFi at home (I have AT&T wireless) or at AT&T hotspots (Starbucks, Sam's Club, etc.). However, when I'm somewhere that has non-AT&T WiFi (Chick-Fil-A, Panera, etc.), I can connect -- with a strong signal -- but I'm unable to access the internet. I get a message about the server not responding.

Had Horrendous Pop3 problems with BTInternet so set up Forwarding of emails to other addresses hosted by Just Host.All seemed well until I tried to email my wife (BT FWD'd address) from my Blackberry 9900 - it kept bouncing. If I email the address the Forwarding is going to at Just Host or email from my laptop no problems. Just Host looked at the failure message and suggested contacting Blackberry and BT. But HTF do I contact support at Blackberry?This is the most recent failure message with some deletions.

Or is there an app that can do it?
I've tried the 'blacklist' option but it seems that people can find out that I've blacklisted them. Is there a more discreeet way where they can't find out?

I recently deactivated my Blackberry Bold 9000 (v4.6.0.304 operating system) from AT&T since I ported my cell phone number to US Cellular who had better coverage in my region. I'd like to continue using my Blackberry Bold 9000 as a free wi-fi only internet access device and install the Google Voice app so my kids could text message and make phone calls via the Google Voice app and phone's wi-fi connection. While my BB Bold is able to connect to our home wi-fi network like in the past it doesn't successfully connect to the internet and gives me the following message: "Unable to connect to the internet, please try again later."

I just want to add my thoughts on how frustrated I am with this device. Although this was my first blackberry I like the overall thought and function of the device and refuse to let this crap device alter my opinon of other blackberry devices. I tried and tried to talk to sprint/nextel to replace my device with another model since they refuse to update and support the 8350i. But you and I both know I didnt get anywhere. I have recent reverted my os back to the .204. Does anyone else have any input on how to further advance my preformance of the device?

I bought an unlocked SM-920F Galaxy S6. In the settings -> wifi -> more I dont see any 'advance' option and hence can not switch on notification when there is a wifi network available. All the submenus there are : Add network, WPS push button, WPS PIN entry, Smart network switch, Keep wi-fi on during sleep, Always allow scanning, Install network certificates. Am I missing something ? Where do I get the wi-fi notification settings ?

I'm using Xperia Z2, and this week I've update it into official Android Lollipop 5.0.2 through PC Companion. However, after the update installed, i seen a horrible WiFi problem: It's "always on". Even after I turn off scanning always available option on Advance Setting, the WiFi still on, as seen from the Battery Usage. This problem makes my Z2's keep awake and taking a huge battery loss.

I would like to perform a hard reset on my N8, returning it to the condition it was in 'out of the box'. I am hoping this will give a nice fast phone on which to install the forthcoming Belle update. I'm not bothered about contacts, calendar, sms, photos or music - they are all backed up.I do however, have a pile of games from the Summer Gifts promo that are installed, and I want to keep.How do I backup these games to ensure I can restore or reinstall them after the hard reset? I have already checked the Nokia Store and it doesn't have them listed on my download history.

I have a Nokia E63 on 3, it reports its symbian software version as 200.21.012. My wireless router is a Netgear DG834PN. It has a WPA2-PSK key code set up, and my laptop works fine with the wireless. It is set up to use DHCP, has MAC address filtering turned OFF. The network is public (not set to hidden). If i try to connect my nokia E63 to the wireless then when i try to access the internet, it gives an error stating ' no gateway reply'. Power Saving is disabled. I have tried setting the IP address manually and still it gives the error. I have also tried re-setting the router, to no avail. The only way i got it to work was by disabling all security on the router (making it an open network) which, whilst this is fine for testing, i do not want to run it as an open network, it must run with WPA2-PSK security.
