[Q] I can call and SMS,but i can't go on the internet or check my email.Help please

Hello guys.
So as the title says i have a problem with my samsung galaxy s. It works to SMS and call, but i can't check my email or even go on the internet. I have already checked the settings for internet as my operative tells me to have. So i buyed the phone from a random guy and it worked for the last 1 week but now sudden it is like this. My brother tells me that it could have something with the imei-number. He says that the guy probably fooled me and have register the imei number as blacklisted. But then i wonder why can i still SMS and call?
So my question is :
What could be wrong cant i go on the internet and check my email while i can SMS and call?
What can i do if the guy fooled me? Is it any way to solve the imei-number problem if the satilite have blacklisted it?
Please i really need help with this i feel really fooled
Any help is appreciated and sorry for my bad english.
Kind Regards
Arrish

are you sure your internet and email settings are correct?

You might need to re input/input the APN's for your service provider. Go Settings>Wireless and Networks>Mobile Networks>Access Point Names and press menu to add an APN. If there are no APN's there already then it's the problem and if there are some there they may be wrong. You'll have to google the settings for your provider. Sorry if I got some of the menu names wrong

Thanks for the answer guys.
I have re-inputed the APN for my provider and i have checked my settings and it still don't work.
Kind Regards
Now i discovered another problem. When i choose GSM/WCDMA (auto mode) i cant call or SMS either. But with GSM only it works. I dont understand what the problem is. 3G doesn't work either.

What rom is on your phone?
Go to Settings>About phone and tell us the Build number.
Have you factory reset the phone since you've purchased it?

Thanks for the answer.
The build number: Darky's v9.5.XWJS8
and no i havent factory reset it.

Can someone help me please?

Please could anyone help me? I cant even SMS , Call or go on the internet. I think the guy who sold it to me has blocked it. To get money from his insuarance. If its blocked like satilite blocked or something is it possible to hack it and open it?
Kind regards.

EDIT: check your IMEI number (*#06#) matches the number on the box or the phone (under the battery)
ok ok well before we start accusing this 'guy' of fooling you, lets get you back to stock.
you are running a custom rom which could be causing these issues.
get yourself a firmware, with all 3 files, add a 512 pit, tick the re-partition box and let the phone do its thing.
then report back

Friend had exactly the same problem with their new SGS II. Factory reset sorted it out immediately.
Good luck with it

are you using the right modem for your region?? I was using one that worked in my home town but went to another city an hour away and my phoned died....apparently they use different tower frequencies in different locations where i'm from. Just make sure your using the right modem for your location.

So i checked the imei number on the phone and it matched the number under the battery. But i dont understand this " get yourself a firmware, with all 3 files, add a 512 pit, tick the re-partition box and let the phone do its thing. " I dont understand what you mean sorry , could you explain better thanks.
I will try to factory reset it now.

help please i cant do anythang

[Q] Bricked?

Hello, today I got a LG Optimus Black. It was used before.
The problem is that is has password which I don't know and the previous owner doesn't know either... It also probably has a simlock on an English network, and I live in Poland... Is there a way to make it work? I can't run any app because the phone requires the password on start up...
Help please. If it is not possible to do it myself, does anyone know how much would it be to service it? I don't have any papers or warranty...

Have you tried to boot without sim?

It's not a PIN code, it's code of the telephone. Yes, I have.

If it is a simlock, without sim it wouldn't appear.
I remember a similar case in the forum... search and see if he resolved it...
Maybe you could reflash the phone!

[Q] No signal after using ext antenna.

Hi.
I tryed ext. antenna to emprove signal strenth and after that without ext wire can not find any network signal at all. Before that was signal exelent. What should i have to do, to get that fixed? I have no warranty, so they cant help me as well.
Sorry for the grammer, engish is not my native language
Hope You all understund it and you can help me asap.
If some one have solution for that then my email is [email protected]
Cheers.

Do you mean an external antenna? Or an app from the market or somewhere?
Have you tried a factory reset or flashing stock firmware?
Did you change any settings?
Usually your carrier has a technical department that should help with this type of thing..

Yeah, external antenna on phone back side.
I have change before that about three times different custom and original roms. Nothing helps. I havent change anything.
Is it possible that, phone changed external antenna to primari, and it do not change it back?

Or maybe some one can share rom what is made by Three.co.uk . Then i am able to send phone in warranty.
Original rom 2.2.1 for i9000

go to samfirmware.com and try find it there... the carrier options i think are at the bottom.
However as far as i am aware, 3 do not have their own specific roms, i thought they have standard, roms... I could be wrong

[Q] SKT SHV-E160 Admin Code Problem...

Ok I'm wondering if someone could help me out here. I picked up a Korean SKT Galaxy Note today, however the LTE isn't compatible with docomo's network. I did some searching online and found that there is a code you can put into the dialer to access a STK hidden menu, which ultimately let's you alter the phone to accept WCDMA frequencies and such. The code is:
319712358
However the phone then requires a password. I found 774632 as the password but when I put in the sequence, nothing happens.
I bought this phone used for 65,000 yen (about $720) and it is apparently unlocked, as I can use my docomo number without a problem. I desperately want to keep the phone (the store said I could return it) but have no use for it without the data, and thus would be incredibly grateful if someone could help me out...

May be try to use 996412 instead of 774632

[Q] Galaxy Ace some kind of network lock

I recently got hands on to my friends Galaxy Ace, who complained that the phone is locked.
When inserted SIM card and dialed, got error "network not available", but the phone shows signal bars.
When dialed *#7465625# to see network locks, it shows that all locks are off?
Any ideas? Should I root the phone?

Root aint gonna help u in anyways!
Check Your Friend IMEI ... *#06#
If Shown only 0000000 at your friends IMEI ... you got your self an expensive brick!
If not try with other sim card ... if all locks are off, phone is unlocked for sure! you could have a modem problem

It shows phone full IMEI code.

OK try this,
go to settings > wireless & networks > mobile networks > network operators
once you tap on that it will search and find all the available operators choose the one that is yours or try some others. My friend had same kinda problem but he is in another country and well this is the way he managed to solve his problem. so try it. and if I helped press the thanks button thank you.
Good luck ;-)

________________________________________________
you have two more options either try a different network as said above or change your ROM. if those don't work then its a hardware error. which unfortunately we cant do anything about it.
good luck ;-) if that helps the thanks button is the way to help back.

Which ROM do you recommend?

how do you turn the network locks off

____________________________________________
it depends on what you would expect from a ROM. performance or battery life or look or ...
here r my suggestions:
miracle edition v4 (performance is good so is the battery life and its ics themed so its at the top in my list) >>>I'm a link ;-)<<<
Jusada's ORIGINAL ICS Final (performance really good and battery life is good and its ics themed but you may run into stability issues if you over clock and use the phone continuously. but overall its cool also its got cool transition animations that most other roms don't) >>>I'm a link ;-)<<<
or you may use the official cyanogenmod ok? let me know if you need any help with flashing roms. ;-). In additions if I helped pressing the thanks button is the way to help back around here.

Help Unlocking a Samsung that is already "Unlocked"

Hi RaidoRi, did you ever manage to find a solution to this problem? I am experiencing the the exact same issue - I am trying to get a Swiss Samsung Galaxy Ace GT-S5830i phone+ Mucho (Swiss) SIM to operate in Canada - I HAVE to get it to work for a personal reason... I also have "Network Lock is [OFF] after dialing *#7465625# and I have a full IMEI (not just 000's).... The network that the phone selects automatically does not work with the Swiss SIM ... (The phone only works with "Rogers", and the Mucho SIM will only work with "Bell Canada" - because that is the company that Mucho's parent, Swisscom, has an international relationship with). Do you have any idea how I can get the phone to work and make my Swiss SIM card work here? I have been trying everything for over a year now but cannot seem to find a solution (the latest attempt was asking a friend from Switzerland to mail me a brand new phone and this is what I am now trying to unlock)... Other phones in North America will not recognize the SIM card at all...
Sorry if this is confusing but if anyone can help I would greatly GREATLY appreciate it, and I am sure by now you are all aware that I am not a developer so sorry if my question is kind of all over the place.
Thanks in advance!!
