I have a Samsung M8910 Pixon on AT&T in the U.S and I am not able to send/receive any type of MMS messages. I get the message "Retrieving failed Define network settings." If anyone knows what I should change the settings to I would greatly appreciate it, or if you know what else could be wrong other than the settings.
View 2 RepliesI've lost my battery, but why can't I find a new one for my M8910 Pixon 12 phone anywhere? None on eBay, can't seem to find any on Google either.I rang Samsung directly, they put me onto a company called EET Nordic.... however they want £20 for the battery, £1.50 for use of a debit card, £8.95 postage!!! Then VAT on top of all that.... £35 is a bit expensive for a battery when normally you can get genuine Samsung ones for under £5 delivered to your door on eBay.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI decided to get Opera Mini 5 (beta) for my M8910 today. Great browser. Looks much better than the 4.xx version and touch screen is fully supported. Only downside is the virtual d-pad at the bottom of the screen, which is pretty much useless on a touchscreen. Afters hours of scouring the big, scary WWW, I've found out that:
> it's not an Opera feature
> On Symbians it can be disabled from some settings menu, but apparently not on Samsungs
> it can be removed by editing either the .jar or .jad files, but so far I've only found fixes for LG and Nokia (symbian?) phones
How do I remove the virtual d-pad for Java apps on my phone?
Is this Phone still available. Was looking for a spare battery, but cant find one anywhere, plus cant find much information on Buying the Phone (Vodaphone, o2,Orange etc) not even on Samsungs own Web Site.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI've been looking around and finally found the MMS settings for the Gravity 2 from T-Mobile to work on AT&T.
Here they are:

I just decided to post this since there were several people asking for it. Once you have saved this profile. Make sure you select it. Once it's selected it works for both MMS and Internet.
This works as of: 06/03/2010
I have a Samsung gravity from t-mobile which I unlocked before moving to the Netherlands.
Unable to connect to the internet and found out that I have to change the wap/apn settings to:
KPN
Naam: Mobiele Startsite
APN: internet
Proxy: ---
Poort: ---
MMSC: http://mp.mobiel.kpn/mmsc
MMS-Proxy: 10.10.100.20
MMS-poort: 5080
MMC: 204
MNC: 08
APN-Type: default (small letters!)
My question is: Where do I put in this information? Do I need to install another firmware and how do I do that? I've been looking around on this forum and I'm sure the answer must be there somewhere, but I can't find it.
Kies has always worked well for me, until I updated my GSII to ICS and updated Kies to the latest version. Now I'm having trouble syncing the GSII with Outlook on my PC as I want.fter the last sync, I find that the contacts on the PC have all duplicated (2 of everything), and the contacts on the phone have all been removed.When I first set up Kies there were options to determine how priorities on new/changed contact records on phone and PC should be resolved. Now I can't find any settings for that. It's just the one 'sync' setting.

Have any of you guys with this phone had similar problems? I'm just wondering what we can do to really *fix* it. - Or wait for a firmware update.The GPS is majorly unreliable and only works part of the time.

View 5 Replies View RelatedMy S2 has behaving a bit strangely now for a while, but after updating it to ICS it seems to have gotten worse!
The settings I use daily are (amongst other ones):-
- WIFI off
- bluetooth on
- ringer vibrate
- brightness 25%
Before ICS, when I switched the phone off and then on again, it would change the settings to the following:-
- WIFI on
- bluetooth off
- brightness 50%
After ICS update it now also resets the ringer to loud, not vibrate.
It seems to make the changes shortly after it boots. For example, I switch it on, put my pin in and the bluetooth is on, wifi off, ringer vibrate (as it was when it went off). However, shortly after my home screens have loaded with their icons, the BT, WIFI, brightness and ringer all change, almost as if it's loading some default settings.
I have the international version of Galaxy S2. I go into phone to display the log and I pick any of the settings, ie all calls, missed calls, etc. It displays the right information but when I exit and get back to it, it doesn't remember the settings, it goes back to ALL.

On my old phone I had a pin code lock for when the phone was turned on. The nearest I've seen to that is the encrypt device option.Has anyone any recommendations as to good practices for security on android phones, especially with the auto sync of some accounts needed for running which makes me want to lock the phone down tight should it get into undesirable hands.

View 6 Replies View RelatedIs there anyway to change the settings on the video player?
Here is my proplem. when i select the video icon (the one that looks like a film strip) and start playing the video plays but then after it is done it plays the next one right after the one i played.
Is there a way to change the settings so it plays only the video i select?
I can set up my account and send/receive emails with no problem using either pop or imap, the problem I have is trying to then modify the 'Server Settings' to set the 'delete from server' option under 'incoming settings'. When I select 'incomming settings', username/password, 'done', nothing happens, I'm just returned back to the original settings screen that I originally selected 'incomming settings' from. What is also suspicious is the option for 'outgoing settings' is not listed at all, when I look at documentation the option for 'outgoing settings' is there under 'server settings' but not on my phone it's not.
View 2 Replies View RelatedThe following questions are probably more Android-related in general, and not SGSII - specific. But as the SGSII is my first Android smartphone, please bear it with me and try to explain everything in layman's terms 1. In Contacts, what exactly does the "Merge with Google" option do (apart from displaying that little "g" icon next to a contact)? Also, after using it, I don't see to be able to revert the action - is it still possible?. Is it only possible to synchronize my Contacts with my Google account after the above mentioned "Merge with Google" action has been applied, or are they completely separate? E.g. if I add a new contact to my Phone, will it get synchronized with Google even if I don't Merge it with Google first?
3. Is it possible to also synchronize other contacts (like those from Facebook, LinkedIn, etc) in order to store them on my Google account for safety reasons4. Does the Google contacts synchronization work also the other direction, i.e. after I edit My Contacts on my Google accont, can I just use "Synchronize" in the SGSII to update the Phone contacts? Or do I need to delete all Contacts from my Phone first, and only then synchronize to the current Google version?5. I write messages/emails in English as often as I do in Polish. When I set Polish as the input language in Voice Recognition settings, and happen to compose a message in English using voice recognition, it often happens some Polish words are generated (and vice versa). I thought it would be logical if - apart from the global input language setting - the keyboard input language settings (changeable via the Space bar) - would eliminate the problem (ie. the VR engine should expect and use only English words when the keyboard is set to Eng, and so on) - but it doesn't seem to work.
