I had to call them to activate the phone: the online system would not let me activate on the everything 1500. The operator even tried her best to activate the phone without charging me any more for insurance on it, poor girl. $1 bump in insurance from my OG Epic, no big deal.

i have a ton of freebies like 5pm nights..pick 6, free incoming minutes, etc

I always talk with a live person and make sure none of the add ons will fall off before activating a new phone

I have activated 3 phones in the last 12 months without any issues that way

you have to do a "manual activation" rather than "automatic"

I usually, only, speak with tech support in activating my new phones since they are more knowledgeable from my experience

Is anyone here interested in helping to get our device supported by Mobile Odin ?

You'll just need to test Mobile Odin after submitting two files to the developer.

It'll help you flash kernels & ROMs without a PC so you won't need a PC to check out the new stuff & can flash things on the go. :)

Root Huawei Y200 Succesfully (ENGLISH)

Hi, I've successfully rooted my phone. I have a Huawei Y200.it might be easier if you waited for OneClickRoot do be launched maybe they have the device listed for auto flashing that does everything for you.

OneClickRoot: ==> I can't post links sorry :) ..New User, please search on internet..

But anyway, here's the batch file I think I uploaded it..

So its easy once you root it, but WARNING: DO NOT INSTALL CLOCKWORK MODE AGAIN THROUGH ROM Manager OR ANY SOURCE. (this might bring you into bootloop)

follow steps to use the batch file...

1- You need to do this on your phone: Allow USB Debugging and STAY AWAKE Function, STOP fastboot mode. Now Install ADB Drivers when connecting phone into computer via usb and debugging mode is on (you'll see a drive usually green on your computer, check for "drivers" inside driver folders and install windows drivers.

2- You need to install Android SDK : ==> New User, Can't post links, Search Android SDK..

navigate to default download location: " C:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools ", shift + right click inside the folder with nothing selected, and run command prompt from there. run following command "adb devices" and it should list a device number.

3- Now exctract the zip file in attachement and run these in order: -"adb.exe" then -"fastboot.exe" then -"root_v5.2.bat". It should say a succesfull message and ( as i remember) phone should reboot (if it states "reboot phone now" in cmd prompt). now you shoudl be rooted and see "SuperUser" application installed.

4- Check if you're properly rooted with a "rootchecker" market app. If App requested root access by SuperUser (ofcourse you'll tap Accept right?) and says you have proper root, you can now jump around and scream " I rooted my phone" like i did... You can now Install Link2sd app and enjoy free enternal storage since you've rooted your phone... Any Directions using Link2sd repost or you can search internet... One limitation is you can'r use swap (to increase your RAM ), and have to go through different ROM's. If rooted your phone succesfully please inform and on any questions about ROM switching...

I did a research about this lock and i found a modified kernel what is capable of unlocking again the bootloader. (Claimed by the author, that it should solwe rhe issue)

Please tell me, since i did not upgraded the firmware due to the issue, could it be true?

Because i did not found any feedback from the users who tried it.

Can we count on another unlockibg method, or is this true that the bl can be unlocked via adb kerbel flash?

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Razyre:
Hi there.

I got my Galaxy S3 about 3 days ago and love almost everything about it.

I've been experimenting heavily with USB OTG, and it's such a great feature to have. I have got a Mouse, keyboard and USB flash drive all working over the USB OTG cable. I can also get the Mouse and Keyboard connected at the same time over a USB hub. However, USB flash drives refuse to work over a hub on USB OTG, even though they work directly from the phone to the USB. This is pretty confusing to me, considering two higher power devices work over the hub.

I've tried two different varieties of hub, both giving the same result and have also tried two flash drives. I'm using an un-powered hub and I honestly don't see how just because I'm using a hub the USB Flash drive isn't working. There is no way that it can have a higher power usage than a mouse/keyboard at the same time.

Just to note, I'm using the hub unpowered externally, it's going directly into the phone. I can't seem to find the power cable to try.

I have the UK (GSM) variant of the phone in blue and am running on the Stock 4.0.4 ICS firmware (i9300XXLF2) and haven't tried to root or anything.

Could someone suggest what might be the issue I'm having, or some things to try?

Thanks

So I would presume NFC with it too - we don't have NFC here in france, and thus haven't tested it lol.

[Galaxy S III Accessories] sipos:
I ordered one of these from the linked seller on Amazon and, it doesn't work. It never finishes charging the battery. I called Samsung UK customer services and they said that this isn't a Samsung product designed for the UK market and advised me to return it.

Given that the box certainly looks like it was designed for an English speaking country, I guess it is either produced for somewhere like the US or, it is a counterfeit. It has the same product codes as shown in OP's pictures and they confirmed that these do not match codes used by Samsung for any product they sell in the UK. Certainly if you do have one of these and it goes wrong, you will have problems getting it fixed under warranty. Given that they couldn't find any information about this at all, it sounds like it might well not be a genuine Samsung product to me.

Edit:

If I plug it in with the mains adapter from the Galaxy S3 rather than to a USB port on the computer, the LED shows red. I assume this means it can't charge the battery because of some problem. The battery looks subtly different to the one in my phone (as do the two shown in OP's pictures). The battery says Near Field Communication on it but, I'm not sure how to verify it with NFC. Certainly holding it against my phone with NFC turned on does nothing.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] TotallydubbedHD:
Well I'm using it now, and have no problems + the battery works + it was OFFICIALLY announced
[Galaxy S III Accessories] hboos:
If the LED is RED then that means it's charging the battery. After it's charged, it will turn green.

You can test the NFC by enabling it in the settings and then putting a bank card with one of those contactless payments built in.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] TotallydubbedHD:
Any ideas what the orange one is?

When you first connect it....the charger goes red, orange, green, and then solid red.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] sipos:
I'm aware there is an official device very like this. That doesn't mean that that's what the Amazon seller is selling though.

Have you checked that this is identical to the one the Samsung stores are selling? I think that this is probably a counterfeit version or, possibly an import from somewhere else. The fact that Samsung's UK customer services said that the model code (which is the same one as shown in the picture you posted) is dodgy seems fishy to me. Perhaps it is just an import from another region but, it seems weird that they couldn't find any info on it at all. Maybe you don't care, if it works like you want, all is good.

I once bought a Wii remote of some random seller on Amazon and it look identical to the real ones and worked fine for ages until, after 6 months, it stopped working and I sent it to Nintendo for repair under warranty. They returned it and said it was a counterfeit. I was surprised since it looked almost identical (I didn't notice anything different until I looked very closely and noticed the plastic was a really subtly different colour and one of the labels was slightly different). I think it is worth being very careful about whether electronics are the real deal since counterfeits do exist.

---------- Post added at 02:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:51 PM ----------

If I connect it to a PC via the USB charging cable, the LED flashes orange but, after 24 hours, it has never gone green. If I connect it to the mains with the Galaxy S3 mains adapter, it goes solid red and stays that way.

EDIT: both times, it goes through all three colours when the cable is first connected, as you described. I don't have anything else with NFC so, I can't really test it.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] TotallydubbedHD:
of course it is careful - so thank you for your concern :)!

I think I'm fine with it, both with the battery (currently using it as my main battery) and as the charger (normal charge time) - apart from that nothing seems to be wrong with it.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] sipos:
Thanks for the info. I'll see what happens when charging it from the mains. I assumed the red light was an error but, if yours went green when it is charged, perhaps the orange means error and the red means charging and mine will charge now.

I am still suspicious that this might be a counterfeit so, I will take it to the Samsung shop to get them to check it. I will post my results here for info of anyone else considering buying it. I have tried to contact the Amazon seller to ask where they bought it from but, I just got a reply from Amazon saying that the e-mail address the seller provided bounced the mail so, I think it is unlikely they will get my e-mail.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] hboos:
I assume the orange would be for an error but I think the charger initially goes through the whole cycle of colours to verify that the LED is working properly.

The Samsung website is not that up to date especially for small things like accessories.

I've had a few problems a while back with registering a phone that I bought from Vodafone UK and the Samsung web people told me that there was no such model..

But I guess it doesn't hurt to be extra careful
[Galaxy S III Accessories] flawedlegacy:
I had one of these for my Captivate and LOVED IT! Got it off eBay and battery did look just a tiny bit different, but it was enough to notice it fairly easily. Believe it was font size or something like that. Still unsure if counterfeit, but worked for me for 2 years without a single glitch and came in what looked to be a nicer box than counterfeit would come in (box looked 100% legit).

I WILL be buying one of these for my i9300! ... and probably one for the wife's
