Samsung :: Impression SGH-A877 - Connect To The 3G Network
Aug 19, 2010
My Impression has been stuck on the Edge network for 3 or 4 days now, no matter where I go. It used to be connected to the 3G+ network. I use AT&T. I looked at my wife's phone to see if her phone was stuck on the Edge network, and it isn't. She is connected to 3G. I spoke, or chatted with AT&T, and they told me it could be the phone, since my wife's phone is fine. She wanted me to put my SIM card into my wife's phone and then see if it connects to 3G. I was wondering if there is anything I can do to get it to connect to the 3G network again.
I would like some software or firmware fixes for the following issues on the Impression. I have the MultiLoader_V.562 & TKFE softwares and the original Samsung USB cable. I have read that some may not be possible on the samsung-impression.org website, but maybe there are more experienced programmers in this forum. I'm hoping the latter is the case! Here are the items I would like seeing solved, in no particular order:
1) Text bug, whereas the text stalls in the "Outbox" and the phone must be power-cycled to return to normal. 2) a) Slider qwerty has slow-response time in regards to letters pressed; b) Pressing space bar twice creates a period; c) Certain letters (mainly A, E, & N) aren't accepted if pressed quickly. 3) Possibility to install firmware found in SPTbox format (with the .crz file type) 4) Possibility to install another OS, such as Windows or Android.
Perhaps I'm just not using the right search keywords, but all the instructions I find aren't working. Mostly because my phone doesn't seem to have the same lines that everyone else is listing.
For example, I typically see this - Profile1 Info 1. Profile Name: T-Mobile GPRS 2. GPRS Setting: +1. Gateway: +++1. IP address: 216.155.165.50 +++2. IP port: 9201 +2. APN: wap.voicestream.com +3. Login ID: anonymous +4. Password: +5. APN: wap.voicestream.com 3. Homepage URL: http://wap.myvoicestream.com/
For MMS, I have these from my E635 as well. MMS Settings 1. Profile Name: T-Mobile USA MMS 2. Server URL: http://216.155.174.84/servlets/mms 3. GSM Setting: (leave blank as mine was) 4. GPRS Setting: +1. Gateway: +++1. IP address: 216.155.165.50 +++2. IP port: 9201 +2. APN: wap.voicestream.com 5. Bearer: GPRS only
Then, trying to follow another's step-by-step instructions, I'm still having trouble following along. Here's my step-by-step to the point that I get lost. Open Menu, tap Settings, tap Messaging, scroll down to Messaging Settings, tap Multimedia Message, tap MMS Profiles... and this is where it gets confusing for me. Whether I try to edit one of the preset profiles, or add my own, these are the lines I'm offered to work with: editing the MEdia Net profile - Set Name Access Name Auth Type User ID Password (user ID and PW aren't able to be edited in this profile) Protocol (either HTTP or WAP) Home URL Proxy Address Linger Time (sec.) Advanced Settings
And in the Adv Settings, I have - Static IP (to check, or unckeck, a box) Local Phone IP (not highlighted, ie, able to be edited) Static DNS (to check, or uncheck, a box) Server 1 Server 2 (neither server lines are able to be edited in this profile) Traffic Class (down arrow sellection, with Subscribed as the only selection available)
And in adding a new profile, everything that was previously unable to be edited, can now be: User ID, Password, Static IP #, and Servers 1 & 2 #'s. I've tried every combination of URLs that I could find: Home URL - http://216.155.174.84/servelts/mms Homepage URL - Homepage URL: http://wap.myvoicestream.com
Along with every combination of IP #s that I could find: 216.155.165.50 10.168.200.50
And I'm striking out everywhere. I'm hoping someone understands the babble I've typed in here, and can make sense enough of this to be able to help me. I don't care about getting on the internet with the phone (no data plan), but I just want to be able to send/receive pics and videos.
I recently changed the digitizer in my Samsung Impression, but the new one didn't come with any adhesive to hold it in. The old adhesive came off with the old digitizer. I'm hoping to find something better than what I'm temporarily using right now (tape). Really would like something close to the original. Or if anything, something the same thickness as the original that I can cut to fit myself. The only place I have seen any listed is on a trade site and they want you to purchase a minimum of 500.
My stepdaughter has a Samsung Impression and she forgot her password to get into her phone. As a result, her phone won't let you past the phone lock screen.
I've tried removing the battery and entering *2767*3855#, but it just say "unsupported character" when I hit the # key. I even tried *2767*2878# and it says the same thing, "unsupported character".
How can I get into this phone? To make matters worse, the calibration on the touch screen is so off that it's virtually unusable in the portrait position.
I want to purchase a Samsung Impression, but I would like to add language capabilities. I am looking to add Hebrew language to it. Does anyone know if there is a way to do that?
I got a Samsung Galaxy S II last week for the first time, and I noticed something odd. I can connect to my home secured Wi-Fi network just fine using the network credentials, but I can't seem to use free Wi-Fi networks like McDonalds for example when I am out and about...
The phone says that I have connected, but complains that I have no network connection at those times.
I just picked up an Omnia i910 and got the WiFi to connect to my wireless network at home just fine. However, I cannot do anything with it? What am I missing here? I can open Opera and can't go anywhere. I can open up IE and still can't browse anything. Anyone have a suggestion? The Omnia is definitely connected properly to my network on a Netgear router.
im using blackberry storm 2 and i dont know why when i try to connect to 3g, it doesnt work and appear sos on the line coverage. my storm also get full coverage when at certain place only .
"Just got my Blackberry Torch 9810 and I can't connect to AT&T's Network! I get an error saying that there is insufficent network coverage and yet when my girlfriend tries on her Pantech Impact, sitting right next to me, she has no problem. I'm able to make and receive calls and I have 3 bars showing in the signal strength indicator.
I just asked this question over on the AT&T Blackberry Forum but I haven't got a response yet so I thought I would ask it here too.
Since then, I called AT&T for help and they told me that it is probably because when I received my phone I should've left the new SIM card in it and activated it, rather than just popping in my old SIM card, is this true? In the past, I think I've just inserted my old SIM Card and everything worked as it should without performing a new activation.
i my blackberry messenger has all of a sudden stopped working,i have tried everything but it just wont connect to network.Is there a 100% factory reset i can do apart from the hard reset ?I havent even got internet any more all of a sudden it just stopped working

I have bought my Xperia Z3 Dual recently here in Brazil, however the cellphone have the issue that it does not connect on the LTE network.I have configured it properly following the telecommunications corporation and have checked my info about my plan, however I cant connect to the LTE.
Yesterday I was informed by an Apple rep over the chat support site, that the 4S when upgrade with the iOS 5.1. That it does indeed connect to the 4G network. I find it very strange that the carriers have no information on this. If Apple has a iphone that connects to the 4G network. How come they have not informed the carriers? I just spoke with Verizon and they have no information of this that I was informed of yesterday by Apple. I upgraded my daughters phone to an iphone 4S 16G and could not get the promotion, because as far as Verizon understood this phone only operates on the 3G network.
I just updated my HTC One X to 4.1 on 26th of Sept 2012, and my phone will no longer connect to 3G network any more. Is this a provider problem? or Android/HTC screw up? I've tried rebooting, and checking all setting's, also tried to manually turning the network on, and off.

My wife just came back from overseas and now her phone will not detect our wireless network, just says it's "out of range", yet my phone connects fine. I have checked all the settings which are ok, reset the phone and the router to no avail.
My SGSII is not connected to 3G network. I am using Aircel connection, Hyderabad India. My sim card is getting into 3G network when I put it into any other 3G phone.
IMEI can be seen,everything is fine, when plugged in my orange sim card it just said "mobile network not available". The signal strength is fine and can be seen. I tried an O2 sim card, a talktalk (vodafone) sim card and they both worked fine. both of my 2 orange sim cards didn't work on this phone, but they worked fine on my other 2 phones. latest update, just flashed orange stock rom KJ4, got the same problem.tried manually connect to orange, got notice that "unable to connect, try later".
some more detail:every time when I flashed a new rom, always a notice saying "can't access to "/system/csc/ORA/system/". Tried *#272*imei#, there was no optional CSC available.
I have tried reinstalling the frimware and all that did was lose my apps. Tried doing a different firmware and tried rooting all the same results. The phone is definitely unlocked and unblocked as while I was searching google I came across one of those secret codes to show the status of the locks and all 4 of the categories were unlocked. I have tried a batterry pull and tried cleaning the Sim card. Also just in case this helps when I g into Settings>Call>Additional Settings it says 'Network Or Sim card error'. However the Sim card is perfectly fine.
My n86 8MP are trying to connect to a network ALL the time. Even when i have turned of to NEVER at Tools, Connection Wireless LAN, and Internet connection test.There is no program open i background either.What can that be? Could it be my Email program Check interval? Even if the email program are totally closed?
I logged on to the work wifi with my 5800 some time ago.Ever since I've had the phone I've struggled to get the Nokia browser to automatically connect to the Orange Internet (3G) access point.Instead it always prompts"Select Connection" and I have the options "Search for WLAN", "Internet" or "Uncategorised".Internet always used to be "Orange Internet" but now the default is "Internet - <my work> wifi".
This would be fine if I only used the phone for internet at work, but obviously I do not.Can anyone tell me how to put it back to having "Orange Internet" as the default, and ideally connecting automatically without the prompt.I've found under settings>general>accesspoint you can set it to either "Always ask" "Internet" or Uncategorised" but as "Internet" is currently set as my work wifi, this isn't an option.
Okay so there's this WiFi network at school. It is unsecured, and my teacher always connects to it. On my iPhone 3G it never shows up, though after I scan for networks using Stumbler (Stumbler says it's not hidden btw) it appears in the settings. So I click on it and it says "Cannot connect" (or something along those lines) and after the third try it disappears again. I tried using SpoofMAC to spoof my mac address to 11:11:11:11:11 and that didn't work.
Is there any way to connect to the VPN Network automaticly?I'd like to use my WiFi a little more comfortable without the need to always switch it manual on and put in my password.
I have a Sprint Bold 9650 OS ver: 5.0.0.621.I cannot connect to a 3G network when I set it for GSM. The phone is currently set on 1XEV network and even so i get two to three bars maximum everywhere i go. In the two days since ive had the phone I haven't had full service anywhere. Im in the New York area and I understand that Sprint's 3G network is extensive so I dont understand why i wouldn't have coverage unless it may be an issue with the headset.
