[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] wasanne:
Hi I have an S8 model SM-G950F that when using data and hotspot to stream to tv it constantly buffers. The software is up to date. In settings for hotspot there is no section for the khz. Now the odd thing. My wife has the exact same model phone. It has the same software update as mine however in hotspot settings there is a section that shows the khz that you can set to a fixed number or auto. This phone does not have any buffering when when streaming to the tv. Both phones have the same carrier and the same plan so there is no restrictions from the carrier. I hope someone can explain this to me as I use my phone data for streaming and didn't want to have to buy a new phone. Thanks in advance.

[HTC Excalibur] Ajrgonz:
Hi, I'm new to Smartphones and it can be bit bit much. I've search to see if I could find what I wanted to know. No luck I must not be correctly phrasing what I'm looking for, because it is a very simple question, I'have found and learn a lot about rom flashing though.

But back to my question. I bought my daughter a T Mobile Dash, I have SIM and application unlocked the phone and my service provider is AT&T. My daughter can't send pictures in her texts. They just sit there and are never sent. Could somebody enlighten me on where to look for or tell me what to do?

Also what does the spinning W near the right hand corner mean?

Thanks in advance
[HTC Excalibur] jdoggraz:
Text message could be fixed by looking below into the wiki... here I will get you the link
[HTC Excalibur] jdoggraz:
HERE IS THE FIX FOR PICTURE MESSAGES
[HTC Excalibur] Ajrgonz:
Thank you jdoggraz, for the help. I did run into a problem when I got to the section about MMSC Settings for MMS. My daughters dash is running WM6, not WM 6.1 like the Wiki states. On this phone there is no Scroll to MMS > Menu > Settings > MMSC Settings. So I can't make the changes. Will I have to flash the phone with WM6.1?

Thanks again
[HTC Excalibur] jdoggraz:
No I do not believe so, try this click the message icon in the bottom right of the phone, and then scroll to MMS and see if you can change the settings from there... if not you will probably have to upgrade to 6.1, i would recommend you do that as your daughter will probably enjoy the threaded texting much more... and it offers other nice features... I would recommend using Rickys version 24 6.1 Rom, a tutorial is below in my signature that tells you how to upgrade to 6.1... follow it step by step...
[HTC Excalibur] Ajrgonz:
jdoggraz, thanks so much for the help and insight. I'll give it a try and and thanks again.
[HTC Excalibur] jdoggraz:
No problem, if you need help just let me know okay.
[HTC Excalibur] Ajrgonz:
jddoggraz, finally got around to upgrading Dash (Ricky's with Opera)

I was setting up MMS some things were a bit different I hope it works.

[HTC Excalibur] Ajrgonz:
I had already set that up. I'll be out of town for a week so I'll play around with when I get back. Thanks for all your input.
[HTC Excalibur] jdoggraz:
Oh no problem, so do you like the new 6.1 rom?
[HTC Excalibur] Ajrgonz:
jddoggraz, Ihere I'am in Albuquerque, NM and I was able to borrow a laptop.

I tried your suggestion, but I still can't send a picture text and IE eruarors out on me when I use the WIFI. I know the WIFI works because I can get weather updates. My daughter and I love WM6.1, so much I thing I'm going to get a DASH. We both like the customizations that are available.
[HTC Excalibur] Ajrgonz:
jdoggraz, I'm back from my trip. I now also have a DASH. I'm still tryiong to send pictures in texts, but no luck, I'm using Ricky's WM6.1 with Opera. I've followed the Dash Wiki and from this point on what comes up on my Dash is different from the Wiki. in red

Try running connection setup in accessories folder, and then restart the phone.
[HTC Excalibur] Ajrgonz:
Thanks jdoggraz, for all your help you have been more than kind and patient with me. I'll give it a try and see what happens. just one quick question since you work for t-mobile Wear could I purchase a complete housing fro the Dash?

Thanks in advance.
[HTC Excalibur] jdoggraz:
Is this what you are looking for Here you go

Or here is a cheaper one Click Here
[HTC Excalibur] Ajrgonz:
That's exactly what I was looking for, how did you search it? I've tried but could never find one on e bay.
[HTC Excalibur] jdoggraz:
I just typed t-mobile dash housing.
[HTC Excalibur] Ajrgonz:
I tried that and got zilch. e bay doesn't like my $$ lol.

By the way still no luck sending picture in text. it's got to be some thing really minor.
[HTC Excalibur] Ajrgonz:
I have 4 messages just sitting in my out box. 3 of them with the clock & envelope icon and 1 that just failed.:confused:
[HTC Excalibur] jdoggraz:
Did you run the connection setup?
[HTC Excalibur] Ajrgonz:
Yes as you suggested I tried the conection setup and the phone rebooted.
[HTC Excalibur] jdoggraz:
So did that end up working for you?
[HTC Excalibur] Ajrgonz:
No it didn't I tried the first time you suggested, but still no luck. I keep playing with it but no luck.:(
[HTC Excalibur] jdoggraz:
Try calling At&T and seeing if they are willing to assist you in entering the configuration settings.
[HTC Excalibur] Ajrgonz:
Yeah you must be clairvoiant that was my next move lol
[HTC Excalibur] Ajrgonz:
Those arrogant SOBs told me if it's not their phone their is no support. :mad:
[HTC Excalibur] jdoggraz:
Oh that is so retarded. Tell them that it is a BJ II and you need to reconfigure your settings. See if that works.
[HTC Excalibur] veeco:
I have an s620 on ATT and I can't send MMS or Picture Texts. It took me some time to realize but I came to the conclusion that it isn't the phone's settings, it's the fact that my plan does not allow for MMS. It doesn't even let me send/receive them and pay per Kb sent. I only have SMS, no MMS package so I can't receive or send picture texts. This may or may not be your problem as well :).
[HTC Excalibur] jdoggraz:
Oh good point made... That is pretty weird cause with T-Mobile you can still send and receive MMS even though you do not have the plan, you will just have to pay for it... Or you can always opt out and have them blocked...
[HTC Excalibur] Ajrgonz:
No that's not it, I have twin daughter s one has a Pantech Duo the other has an unlocked Dash. The Duo sends and receives pictures just fine. So my plan allows for that. I tried looking at the settings on my daughter's Duo but those SOB"s at AT&T lock you out of the settings so you can't access them. She has WM6.1 on her Duo is there way to take off those locks so I can see she has her MMS set up?
[HTC Excalibur] Ajrgonz:
jdoggraz, I found this set up in the AT&T support forums there were only 6 posts. The last 2 (1 from 5/5/08 & the other 8/21/08 ) Both said they got it to finally work. One did say he couldn't get the IM to work. here ar the settings:

[HTC Excalibur] jdoggraz:
So did it end up working for you man?
[HTC Excalibur] Ajrgonz:
On the first try no, I think the problem might be in inputting the password in the

GPRS, it calls for all upper case letters, since you can't see what you are inputting ( every character is swith to an * ) you are not sure if they are entered as Upper Case. I'm going to leave a post to see if one of these two guys responds. Got keep on trying, the solution is out there.
[HTC Excalibur] Ajrgonz:
I think I found the problem, lets see if someone can help me. Like I stated I believe the problem is with the password. CINGULAR1 is a nine digit password. I keep entering CINGULAR1, I hit done. It backs me out and I re entered MEdia Net I always have a 16 digit password. If I blank it out and hit done when I re enter it will stay blank? Can something be done?

Camera:​

An outdoor phone needs to be a great camera. Thanks, Doogee for not adding the fake cameras Setup. It’s equipped with AI Triple Camera (64MP+20MP +8MP), the manufacturer of the main camera not mentioned. The Doogee Added Sony IMX350 20MP night vision camera and Samsung S5k4h7 8MP wide Angle camera. Autofocus works quickly, on-screen shutter button and custom physical button both work very quick. The pictures are usually sharp, the colors look natural and the contrasts are also great. Even in Low light and night vision camera deliver awesome result. It has a Samsung S5K3P9S5p 16MP Front camera for a selfie.

Very good in daylight / good light, but in low light, you need some light for great result.

From Main Camera you can capture up to 2K video and 1080P from Front camera.

Is there any chance at all?
[Device Reviews and Information] Minotaur:
I've rooted mine. There's no TWRP for any Doogee product, AFAIK.

I'll see about writing a quick&dirty guide to rooting the phone.
[Device Reviews and Information] Minotaur:
Quick&dirty guide to rooting the Doogee S98 with Magisk.

This will break OTA updates.

You'll need the following software installed on your PC:

ADB/Fastboot Drivers

You'll also need to have downloaded the latest Magisk apk (currently 25.1) onto your PC, or know how to get it installed on the phone later on.

Download the relevant ROM update for your phone via Doogee Mall

https://doogeemall.com/community/xenforum/search?q=S98

Unzip the ROM somewhere and locate boot.img from the zip file. We'll be patching this later.

Enable Developer Options mode on the phone. Settings|About Phone. Tap Build number at the bottom 5 times to enable Developer mode.

Settings|System|Developer Options

Enable OEM Unlocking and USB Debugging. Accept any warnings that come up.

Connect phone to PC via USB cable. Accept the prompt on the phone to allow debugging from the computer

Open command prompt on PC and navigate to where you have the adb.exe and fastboot.exe files located from the ADB Drivers package

At command prompt enter:

adb devices

You should see your phone listed there. If it says "Unauthorized," then you didn't accept the prompt to allow debugging from the computer. If there's nothing listed, then you didn't enable USB debugging.

The following steps will reset your phone back to factory settings. If there's anything you need to back up, do so before proceeding.

At CP:

adb reboot bootloader

Once phone boots to the bootloader (there will be a couple of lines of text at the bottom of the screen) enter at CP:

fastboot flashing unlock

Follow the relevant prompts on the phone to unlock the bootloader. Those with poor vision may want to use a magnifier as the writing is pretty small on the screen. The phone is factory reset with this process.

Command prompt:

fastboot reboot

As phone reboots, you'll see a message about device being unlocked and cannot be trusted on the initial Android boot screen.

Do your initial setup.

Get Magisk installed on the phone. Do this by USB file transfer from the apk you downloaded earlier, or by downloading direct on to the phone.

Copy the boot.img from the ROM zip file onto the device in a location you'll remember (Internal Storage/Download is probably the easiest)

Launch Magisk on the phone and select "Install"

Select "Select and patch a file" and then select the boot.img you copied to the device.

Magisk will create a new file called magidsk_patched_xxxx_xxx.img in the Download folder.

Transfer this img onto your PC. Probably easiest to put it in the same folder that adb.exe and fastboot.exe are located.

Enable Developer options/ADB again as they'll have been removed with the factory reset. Confirm with "adb devices"

At CP:

adb reboot bootloader

At CP:

fastboot flash boot magisk_patched_xxxx_xxx.img (use the file name of the patched image. pressing TAB to auto-complete is probablhy easiest here)

At CP:

fastboot reboot

Phone should be rooted at this point. Confirm by starting Magisk and checking what version is installed.

E This root process is not possible to do with the bugjaeger app using another cell phone???
[Device Reviews and Information] lymon66:
Tried this procedure on the latest available ROM (V3.02_20221209-1006) and it bricked my phone.

Fortunately I was able to restore it using Mediatek SP Flash tool

For the new(er) Firmwares you can follow Minotaur's procedure , but do NOT use the command

flashboot flash boot xxxx.img

, but you should use

flashboot flash boot_a xxx.img

(where xxx.img is the boot.img that was patched with Magisk)

Quick guide for those that ever come in the same situation of bricking this phone (or want to restore the phone to factory defaults/firmware):

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

-turn off the phone completely; either by holding the power button for 5+ seconds or from within the recovery

NB: Make sure the phone is not connected to USB or any other external power source, otherwise it will turn on automatically again

-Download and install the mediatek SP Flash Tool and Mediatek Driver auto installer :

Download SP Flash Tool for Windows and Linux (MediaTek Flash Tool)

Download SP Flash Tool (Smartphone Flash Tool) that allows you to flash or install Stock Firmware ROM (Flash File) on Mediatek Devices.

androidmtk.com

(I used flash tool v5.2216, which works for the S98 Pro)

-Download the required ROM :

Microsoft OneDrive

onedrive.live.com

(do not download Doogee's flashtool version as it doesn't work)

-unzip the ROM/Firmware file you downloaded

-start the Mediatek flashtool and choose as download agent (preset) MTK_AllInOne_DA.bin

select the scatter file in the unzipped ROM folder..it is probably called MT6781_android_scatter.txt

(after selecting the scatter file, the main-window should be filled with img-files)

select in the dropdown box: "Firmware-upgrade"

click the "Download" (green arrow pointing down) button

Now connect the phone to your computer using USB.

The phone will turn on as soon as you connect the USB and the Flash tool should automatically start the ROM/Firmware installation process

Once finished the phone should restart and will be restored to factory defaults.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Hope this helps.

please help i can not connect

but when i click Properties it says

"Can not log on to the wireless network. this requires a personal certificate to positively identify you"

i changed Wifi from Best battery to Best Performance hoping it will show me Properties, but doesnt show still :(

i read these posts, would these solve?

"i used 802.1x authentication on my MDA.

The only thing you have to do is to add a DWORD Regestry Entry under HKEY_LOCAL_MAICHNE-->Comm-->EAP-->Extension-->25

Name:"ValidateServerCert"

Value: 1 to activate Validation, 0 to turn it off

If you need a Regestry Editor you can use PHMRegedit."

another post

"i created the dword value you mention in this thread i still have the same problem.

Does anyones has the same problem with wm6?"

another post

"Now after days of reading i found a solution for all the devices that couldnt connect with the modified reg-key(HKLM/COMM/EAP/EXT....ValidateServerCert) to a wpa and eap-mschap secured wlan.

To enable the eap-options you have to install the securew2 client. Once you had installed you can choose for authentication method one of the securew2 has provided(this is where you see PEAP and 802.1X) in the WLAN Connections. Just select the TTLS method and disable the outer authentication and the certificate validation in the options. Now you can select EAP and MS-chapv2 in the authentication tab of the securew2 client. and at least you can sign in here your name,password and domain. You can also set an Profile with your settings in the Securew2 client.

This Solution has worked for me on a HTC Touch Cruise(XDA-Orbit-2)."
