[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sagech:
Have you tried to set your APN type to "mms" rather than "default"?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jpmonette:
Is there a way to know before I activate the data that it won't sync my other applications?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sagech:
I don't think so, but if you activate data with only an mms apn present, I don't think you will see a 3g icon in your status bar unless you're sending an mms.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] barqers:
go to settings->wifi/networks->mobile data->apns->select your apn and edit it

Scroll to the very bottom setting, make sure it says ONLY "mms" and NOT "default,mms".

Alternatively, you can root your phone and install droidwall and select exactly which apps can access 3g/wifi.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LordLugard:
I think it's a bit silly and disingenuous for your carrier to sell you an MMS plan knowing you don't have a data plan (and that MMS uses data) but then don't show you or direct you on how to then set it up e.t.c..
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jpmonette:
With Droidwall, can I prevent some apps from using 3G, but able to use WiFi instead?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tenhi:
It would be easier to try it for yourself :). But yes, you can do that. I've just checked :)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rentaric:
Usually MMS plans come /w a specific APN that is set to "MMS" only as barqers explained earlier. Ofc this is getting a bit more "delicate" on devices that almost require a data plan to function at all (and try to enable it themselves on a fresh setup).

or do i have to download them all again?
[General Questions and Answers] demecles:
If you are rooted, use titanium backup. That will let you backup the app data as well as the app. Just don't back up and try to restore system data on your new phone, it can cause trouble.

If you're not rooted you can back up apks with astro but this will not preserve app data.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] rdm362:
Have an HD2 here that stupidly I disassembled to replace the camera lens which after reading XDA deep enough I found out that it is replaced from the outside. Well got the phone apart and figured out that that wasn't necessary I reassembled the phone. Well in the process of getting the back off I appear to have damaged the cable the runs up the side of the screen on the volume button side. The digitizer I am told. Knowing this was beyond me I found a repair facility Mission Repair in Kansas that said they could repair it. Shipped it to them and they said that they replaced the digitizer and the lcd screen and neither one fixed the problem. They seemed truly sincere and did not charge me anything but shipping. They said must be the logic board and that was not an affordable piece to replace.

Seems strange to me that the phone was working perfectly before the cable damage that I caused. I did not approach the logic board area at all. Phone running NDT MIUI 19.1 when this happened. Any thoughts from you gurus that maybe they missed.

Thanks in advance

I am trying to upgrade my samsung galaxy S with kies.

But it stuck when "preparing firmware upgrade components..."

after that nothing happends for hours.

Can someone help me with this?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ii Candor ii:
Kies Mini is junk, IMO. I recommend scouring the forums for your preferred update files (PIT, TAR, and the proper Odin version).

Also, if you want help with this you'll need to post more information -- like your model of phone, carrier, etc.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Teract:
Seriously, I've been using Odin 3 v1.85 with a lot of success. I had quite a bit of trouble with all the "one-key" rooting programs, tried Odin and got everything working the first time... Well... the first time after switching out my cable. (don't use the stock USB cable for flashing. Pop the extra cash for a decent name brand cable)

Also, don't freak out if you can't get the phone working properly after messing it up with Kies. As long as you can get the "download mode" up and running, you should be able to flash with Odin and fix everything.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blisk1:
I like to update with KIES because I need to put the phone on service so I need original ROM.

First I uploaded android 2.1 from samfirmware and can't upgdare, after I put android 2.2 and it is the same.. even If I use spooffw program.

Phone is Samsung galaxy S and I need version of program with MOT.

I tryed to upgrade in 2 computers but always is the same

"preparing firmware upgrade components..."

after that nothing happends
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geri.st:
what if you try updating to 2.3.3 and then use spoof fw to set it to MOT?

I took a look at samfirmware, i'm not sure if there's the right version.

did you make a backup of your stock rom, after having rooted?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blisk1:
I am almost soure that samfirmware doesn't have right version.

I didn't make backup. My friend have the same phone can I backup his ROM and restore on my phone?

I use spooffw and already set it to MOT but stil can't upgrade.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geri.st:
does he have a stock phone? nothing done yet? which android version!

if it is below or equal 2.2.1 u should be able to root it with superoneclick http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=803682

then you can install rom manager from market, make a backup of his rom, and restore it on your phone.

i think this could work ;)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Blisk1:

I will check and try.

Is there a way that people see on service that I have rooted my phone before?

What about some counter which count installed ROMS
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geri.st:
Never heard about that before.

maybe. You should google that ;)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bejda:
it exist only on sgs2 but it's easy to reset using the USB dongle.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Teract:
To counter-act the counter, look on Ebay for a Samsung Galaxy "Jig". Make sure your model is specifically supported. It will reset the ROM counter to 0 and put the phone into download mode. (And it will restore almost any kind of bricked Galaxy S)

Please board members, correct me if I'm wrong, but using Odin vs Kies doesn't affect the ROM install. That is to say, a tech looking at the phone's data files couldn't tell if it was Odin or Kies that was used for the flash.

Look up your exact phone in the forums, go to the development subsection, look for a subject heading that says "[Odin]" and "[Stock]" that doesn't also have other ROM modifications such as "[rooted]" or [ext4].

I am currently running SHIFTS3NS3 V1.3X and can not keep the wireless tether connected. After about 5 minutes it will reset to 0.00 and disconnect. I have this issue on every rom I have tried so far. The issue is the same for each version of wifi tether that I have tried aswell. Each time I load a rom I wipe cache/data 3 times, system, and dev cache. I always keep the stock kernel installed so I don;t think that would be the issue. I had a rooted og droid for 1 1/2 years and didn't have issue with wireless tethering.

@SamFirmware SamFirmware

@Formula84 Its better for not. We check download stats how lower the downloads no new files comming.

Attached is ODIN 1.85 and instructions thanks to crawrj for the files.

IMPORTANT: Make sure you have installed the proper XP or Win7 drivers before starting. Also, remove the SD card from the phone (this may not be necessary, but having the SD card installed has caused Odin to fail for a number of people, so might as well just do it).

1. Extract the contents of the zip file to a folder

2. Open odin

3. Put your phone in download mode (Shut it off, wait for lights to all go out, then hold 1 on the keyboard while powering up)

4. connect phone (you should see odin put a Com4 or something like that in the first box. The actual number is NOT important what is important is something popped up there when you connected your device, meaning ODIN can see it)

5. The only box that should be checked is Auto Reboot.

6. You do not need to choose a pit file.

7. In the PDA Section choose the tar file. (Should be the sph-d700-****-8Gb-REL.tar)

8. Hit start. It will do its thing.

9. If it fails than try a new cable.

10. If the phone hangs for any reason take the battery and sdcard out and let it sit for an hour. Put it back together and try again.

Check this quote out...its the available ram from previous epic firmware.

Sweet so this build offers a ram increase of 20 mb in issuable ram, pretty sweet. It reports 362 usable

first off, "bricked" means nothing works, including apx mode. If apx mode is working, run nvflash again, but through a command prompt(windows->run, type cmd) by cd'ing to the right directory and execute download.bat. this will show you the error message. It's probably that you don't have the three files in the nvflash directory.

I have two problems with my XT720

First: When I answer a call it goes dead, or enter into call waiting. To solve the problem I have to remove the battery and put back. Is there a way to solve this?

Second, the phone restarts several times during the day. Strange that sometimes he spends hours without rebooting, but after restart up to three times in a row.

If you can help me solve these problems I appreciate it. I'm using the 2.2 rom Froyo by Dexter's.
[Milestone XT720 General] Woody:
What are you overclocked at?

Edit:::I am off for the night but in short if your overclocked above stock frequency then your vsels need to be ramped up too. So if you are OC'd at 1000 and your vsels are only at 54, then they are too low and you'll get random reboots. If you are OC'd at 1000 and your vsels are at 80 then you'll just waste your battery.

Vsels too low = random reboots. Good standard OC is 1000/66, I have mine at 1100/74 but use Set CPU. LibertyMonger was using his at 1200/80 but he has since moved his around. Hope this helps.

[Milestone XT720 General] mchlbenner:
Hi

Never had this happen but phone is acting I usually do a hardreset.
[Milestone XT720 General] LibertyMonger:
Sometimes reflashing the ROM without data/factory reset will fix it. Everything should still be intact they way you have it. Just restore the Dexter Nandroid then wipe dalvik and cache. NO Data/factory reset. Also I have found it is due to the sd card Have you Partitioned your sd card? See if it acts the same when you run it without the sdcard maybe. If that's it reformat and/or repartion. Make sure to back everything up.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mich@els:
Hi All!

Just upgraded today my Galaxy S from Froyo to Gingerbread and I'm not quite happy about it.

Is there any possibility to rollback Gingerbread to Froyo?

Any advise will be appreciated!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bansheezzzz:
Yes, it's possible to rollback. It's little trickier though because the Gingerbread bootloader vs the Froyo bootloader.

You have to make sure your filesystem is RFS and not EXT4 (lagfixed). If it's stock and didn't convert then it's RFS.

Then make sure you can get into download mode (Vol Down + Home then power and hold). If you can, these are the general steps you have to do:

1) go to http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=846913&highlight=stock and download the froyo stock firmware for your phone that comes with a froyo bootloader (this is very important because you'll be stuck in a boot loop if you run froyo on a gingerbread bootloader)

2) extract the file to a known directory

3) put your phone into download mode

4) start ODIN

5) plug in your phone while in download mode

6) check the options in ODIN like it shows in the picture under "How to flash with three files:" plus check "Phone bootloader update"

7) select the files you downloaded and select the proper PIT file (these are firmware dependant)

8) click start to flash

I say these are the general steps because I'm not sure which area you are in. If you can provide the current firmware you have by punching *#1234# in the dialer, we can give more specific infor.
