Is there a way I can reset the lifetime calls timer? I didn't even notice I had already used the phone for 3 hrs, and This phone is way to small for my fingers. I'd like to return it and get a bigger phone. any suggestions? Metro PCS wont take it back unless its under 60 minutes.
I have a Blackberry Bold 9780 and just had to switch it in because the first one I got was defective. Now, I'm worried the phone they gave me isn't actually new. Is there anyway of checking the lifetime usage timer to see if this phone's been used before?
Has anyone paired the Freeform with a Kia Soul? I'm looking at the phone from MetroPCS as a cheap texter, but I've had bad luck with a previous Samsung connecting to my Soul.
Alright, I have just purchased a Freeform (SCH R350) and it came bundled with the New PC Studio. I followed the directions, installed the Studio, installed the USB drivers and then connected my phone. My pc see's the phone as a removeable disk drive but PC Studio will not connect to the phone, but the phone says it is connected.
I'm looking for a new phone (CDMA) and am considering the Samsung Freeform (R350) and the Samsung Caliber (R850). The Caliber will cost me about 3x as much as the Freeform. I don't really need a smartphone.For those who own a Freeform, how stable is it? Does it crash or fail to receive calls/texts? Does it do screwy things?
So I currently have the Samsung Freeform (SCH R350). It's an OK phone but to be honest the MetroPCS Firmware is just horrible. I'd like to put the Alltel or some other carriers firmware but I don't have a clue on how to do anything like this and I can't find any info anywhere. First off I did find out about something called Samsung PST ans PST Lite a friend from my trade school said that those are the utilities. I'd need and that I want PST not PST Lite, another thing he said I would need is to acquire the Carriers dll file for the specific phone but after 2 nights of searching I found no Samsung SCH R350 dll's anywhere for any Carriers. This is really eating at me and I'd really like to get some progress into this if anybody has any info on this. Please get back to me whether it be in this thread or through PM. I'm not asking for you to hand me the files or information right over just atleast point me in the right direction.
Would someone please post the code to get into the service menu on the Samsung Freeform SCH R350. Sorry if someone has already posted this elsewhere because I was having trouble finding it.
I am wondering if there is a way for bluetooth DUN mode? I have it enabled over USB cable, but I would like to use it over Bluetooth. All of the phones specifications say DUN is a supported Bluetooth profile, but it is not in the list anywhere. I can live with plugging it in, but it would be so much easier to do it over Bluetooth.
I'm not feeling the pink background on the music player for my samsung freeform r350 (metropcs). Is there a software out there that can hack into this phone so i can change it? Bitpim doesn't support my phone.
I recently got a MetroPCS Samsung Freeform. The power cable also functions as a USB cable, which I've used before to successfully transfer pictures TO my Mac laptop and ringtones FROM my laptop.
The problem is, now I can't get the phone to go into Mass Storage mode. I go to Phone Settings->PC Connection and set it to "Mass Storage", but it never actually stays set as that. I go back and it defaults to "No conncetion".
How can I get my phone to go back into Mass Storage Mode? I got it to work before!
PS, before anyone asks, Bluetooth is off, and I have a Mac so I can't install the drivers from the CD that came with it. I have a feeling this might have something to do with the Service Menu. (when you go to Settings then press # then type in the code). I might have accidentally changed a setting when I was messing around in the service menu
I've got a customer with a crack on the outer plastic over the LCD on her phone. Is there a place I can order a replacement housing for this phone? I haven't seen anything in my google searches.
I've put up with this problem for quite a while, and am starting to really get frustrated with it. There are multiple topics that explain "why" it happens on other Blackberry devices (Storm, 9530)
my timer shows 00:00:00 if I reset it, but if I hit start, it goes to 743:59:59 and begins counting down. If I try to set 1 minute or 5 minutes or whatever I've got the patience to test, it will countdown to 0, then roll immediately to 743:59:59 again. If I add 99:00:00, it shows that on the countdown screen, and then if I try to change the time again it auto-fills with 03:00:00 (it will always use the remainder of the hours I put in next if divided by 24). Another example, if I put 24:00:00, it will add 24 hours to the existing number (now in the hundreds) and the field will fill with all zeroes again. I can only reduce the time shown on the timer by having a remainder and then resetting that to 0. Essentially, I can always get it to show a multiple of 24 hours, but I'm just trying to set laundry reminders, etc...
(v4.6.0.180 Platform 4.1.0.61) I've done a zillion battery pulls since this started and I don't feel like wiping all my apps...
I have a Samsung SCH-R350 (Freeform) and awhile back I was in the NAM program screen (when you dial 47*86..etc..) and I found one called "theme," thought it would be smart to change it from "2" to "3" (hoping there was a hidden theme as none can be downloaded for this phone) and it restarted the phone. When it turned back on where it says "contacts/messages/menu" (pretty much all the words/letters) are kinda fuzzy lookin and if you do anything like go into the menu, messages, contacts or dial ANYTHING then the phone just restarts. You can still go on to the internet and applications/@metro (right or left arrow key) but anything else restarts the phone. How could I go about fixing this??? Should I just take it into a METRO store and lie about how it happened?? I can't get calls or make calls (not even with a bluetooth and voiceservices). What should I do as my CDMAWorkshop's demo time expired so now I only have CDMATools 4 and QPST?
Since a few weeks I have the very odd effect, that the S-II's built-in Clock app's timer does not ring, when going off. It silently displays "Time's up" on screen, but doesn't sound nor vibrate. I do have set a sound in Clock => Timer => Menu => Settings => Alarm Tone and the volume is turned to 100%. I also have set all sounds in Home screen => Menu => Settings => Sound => Volume up to 100% but ther is not sound!t drives me nuts and makes the device practically useless as an alert device
I've just bought a Storm 2 and I am not happy at all.I thought Blackberry would market & sell a product after have been well tested and ready to go.My Storm2 does not have anything installed just the stuff which came with the smartphone. By other way, my Blackberry does not have any service running: Email, Internet, any other apps. I just have been used to call and get incoming calls and to synchronize with Outlook.
1. The problem 1. is that very often my calls (in or out) are interrupted. I loose the signal, with no one other advise or signal. Suddenly I don't hear anything anymore.
2. The problem 2. is that during calls I often get OS restart. Suddenly during a voice comm the phone turns off and restart. When it turns on again, alone, he gives the following message: "Uncaught Exception: Missing Resource Net.Rim.Device.Apps.Internal.Bis.Resource.BISClient"
Frequently - typically once a day - I synchronize the Storm 2 and consequently get it online updated.This is stopping me to use my new phone. Keep using my old iPhone and start thinking that using Desire or iPhone would be much better.
Why there is no lifetime driving license in N97 just like 5800 Navigation Edition. Is someone is paying $600 for a phone then the user should get something for that value. Nokia should consider giving free license just like navigation edition.
Nokia 5800 Navigation Edition Firmware: 31.2.101 RM-428 TomTom Go 720 Ohio, USA.
I have a new Nokia E72 and for 2 months Nokia Messagin was working great. online subscription showed as active and lifetime free purchased with device.
Suddenly my subscription shows cancelled. On calling customer care, they asked my to renew contract with mobile operator. When there is no such case with Nokia Messaging.
How do I get it activated again....
God why didnt I simply go for the time tested Blackberry. If one has to pay, why not go for Blackberyy or iPhone.
I bought an iPhone 4S last night and while tinkering around in the settings, I noticed that the phone is showing a lifetime call total of 13 days, 22 hours! How can this be? I've had the phone for a total of 14 hours! Was I sold a refurb instead of a new product?
If you go into settings, then to general, then to usage, then go to the bottom and click on cellular usage what does 'current period' and 'lifetime' mean? Because mine both say 3days and 0 hours.
My mum just gave me her old iPhone 4 and told me to wipe all the old info etc off it. So I did what I thought was factory reset, now it just has a logo of a cable pointing to something that says itunes and has a slider to slide for emergency numbers. I don't even have a mobile so don't know about iphones now I think I have seriously messed up her old phone.Â
Detailed log of re-occurin issue:I purchased the nokia 5530 in december 2009.In late march 2010, I added a screen protector to the phone.I also upgraded to the 2.0 firmware.Then in April 2010, phone started to switch of when making a call or answering a receiving call.After googling like crazy, removed the screen protector, reset the phone using the codes from this site. Phone worked for 2 weeks no problems.After the 2 weeks it happened again, I repeated the process and it stopped switching off. The screen protector was never replaced thinking it might be blocking the proximity sensor.In late may I updated to new firmware 3.0. Phone was functioning normal at this time.Now it's june and problem started re occuring since the 10th of june.I am unable to answer or make calls with this phone despite my many attempts using reset and factory reset , removing memory card and switching sim with a new sim card etc.So far, the only way it works is with the headset plugged in, but this is a temporary fix. Once the headset is removed during the call it switches off.Also it also crashes when making skype calls which i also installed in may. I used skype for most of may and june, with no problems.My sister also purchased the same phone at the same time, from the same vendor. She never updated the firmware and also has a screen protector installed. Her phone has no problems whats so ever.
One of my friends set up a password on the messages in my SAMSUNG CHAT 322 cellphone and now he doesn't remember it. I can't access any of the messages now. Darn! Is there a way to reset the password or change it to something without losing data on my phone(I mean images, contacts, etc. I won't mind losing my settings)
