He doesn't even need to search the forums. It's not hard to find on the phone itself!

and your there.

[Q] No Mobile AP Setting & Samsung App store

Hi,
I just bought my SGS i9000 in France a few days back. It's locked to SFR here. I tried searching the forums for an answer to these but had no luck.
I noticed 2 things:
1. There is no "Mobile AP Settings" under Wireless and Network settings. I installed appbrain and I can see the "Mobile AP settings" under the installed apps.. but I can't run them. Any pointers as to how I can enable this? I would love to use this function in the SGS.
2. No Samsung App store app is installed with the phone. Is there any way to do this? I wanna install the Asphalt 5 game.
Thanks for your pointers!

[q] how do i get network settings onto my phone ?

I've finally managed to unlock my phone but now i can't get 3's network settings sent to my phone, i have the settings to add them manually but i haven't a clue where to put them. HELP i really do need step by step button by button instructions. I have a Samsung Galaxy S GT-I9000.
Thanks Helpers.
go to
settings
wireless...
mobile net...
APN
manually create one
just be sure, that you have chosen the APN after creation. Don't know why (if there's only one) but you have to tick the circle after creating the APN.
good catch
forgot to mention about that

How to turn 4G off???

A friend of mine just got the revolution. He is brand new to any smartphones. I searched on here but came up with endless threads that didn't answer my question. His battery life isn't that great. We both work 12hr days without being able to charge the phone all the time. So I had him turn off various functions like Bluetooth and gps. Is there a way to turn off 4G? I can on my EVO but didn't see an option on his phone. Thanks

That should do it...

The easiest way is to get the free apply DataSwitch. Just click it yo turn it on and off

Maybe i'm just a bit off topic but I use a combination of apps to get great battery life.
1. (Watchdog) keeps track of data hogging apps and allows you to decide how it alerts you and what to do with those apps.
2. (AutomateIt Pro) lets you set rules to decide what apps and services are active and when along with countless other options.

Both can be found in Android Market with far better explanations on how they work...

WiFi tethering?

Does it work out of the box for grandfathered unlimited plans? Hoping it might since this is supposedly vanilla android...
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747
Tethering and hotspot options are both available on my phone with the standard 3GB data cap, so I would assume that its available on the unlimited plan as well.

Thanks. Do you have a family share plan or an individual plan? The family share plans apparently include tethering.

It is an individual plan which doesn't include tethering, but the feature is still available.
Didn't work for me I haven't unlocked on HTC dev yet but I don't imagine that will change anything.
Are you on LTE?

Hmm, I just now tried it, and I get the same message. Guess we'll need to wait for a third-party ROM like CM10 before this is an option...
Have any of you tried FoxFi? Its in the Play store, and it's free. There is also PDAnet as well.
Anybody that is rooted get WiFi tethering to work yet? Barnacle or WiFi tether for root users or something like that?

I'm also having the same problem with wifi hotspot (tethering). Unlocked my phone (originally locked with AT&T) and anytime I click to enable Portable wifi hotspot I get "There is a temporary problem that prevents the enablement of the Mobile Hotspot function. Please retry later."
I've also tried installing FoxFi to see if I could tether that way - no luck. I get the same error message as above.
Any one have any solutions?
Solved! Alright, so I rooted the phone using the HTC First All In One found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2242639
Once the phone was rooted, I downloaded an app on Google Play called "WiFi Tether" (do not download FoxFi, it doesn't work). The "WiFi Tether" app works ONLY for rooted phones.
Now I can finally tether!

What settings did you use with Wifi Tether for root users? I'm having trouble getting it to work with my rooted HTC First.

I opened up Wifi Tether, went to "Settings", then changed my Device-Profile to "Generic ICS/JB (wlan0)". Hope it helps!

That's not working for me maybe because I only used moonshine?
I scoured the interwebs and found these solutions...
These ways will work for people who can't still can't get their hotspot working:
Stock roms seem to whitelist the apns that can use their tether, so either
1. Insert entitled {yourCarrierAPN} into /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/telephony.db with sqlite editor:
Old Instructions:
1. Use a rooted filemanager (e.g. ES File Explorer) to backup the Telephony Database (/data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/telephony.db) to a safe place (e.g. /sdcard/).
2. Download SQLite Installer for Root from the Market and open the app and install SQLite3
3. Open an adb shell
4. Type the following command in to open the telephony database:
su -c sqlite3 /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/telephony.db
5. This should have opened sqlite3. If it did then type the following command in to update the database:
INSERT INTO carriers (name, numeric, mcc, mnc, apn, authtype, type, insert_by, state, protocol, roaming_protocol, carrier_enabled, bearer) VALUES ("Entitlement","302720","302","720","ltemobile.apn ","-1","entitle","internal","hidden","IP","IP","1","0" );
6. To confirm that this has been applied you can type the following:
select * from carriers;
This should list all the carriers you have in your telephony.db and the one you just added should be at the bottom.
7. Type the following to quit sqlite3
.exit
8. Type the following to reboot your phone
reboot

Summary:
a. Find /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/telephony.db and it's 'carrier' table
b. Edit telephony.db with sqlite editor and add a row that is the same as the hidden AT&T Entitlement APNS, but change the numeric, mcc, mnc, apn type to match your current cellphone's APN in the database
c. Save, reboot, and viola! default tethering activated
or
2. Hack and disable apn check in framework-res.apk

How to fix the incoming call bug?

Guys,
Cant answer any incoming call, no screen to answer show up.
Anyway fix this bug?
Lollipop 5.01
Nexus 6. Stock, this phone is not rooted.
This phone came directly from Motorola and they were sent directly from China I believe.
So these ones are not from any T-Mobile, att or any other carrier local store. I believe that sprint have this issue.
Check video

Problem solved, as last resource I had to do a factory reset. It fixed the problem.

The heads up notification is in the SDK and has to be disabled/enabled by the developer (in this case Google for the Phone app). There is currently no option to turn the heads up notifications on/off anywhere in settings or the Phone settings. You could try a factory reset on the phone, and see if that fixes it.
If you are rooted, I would not factory reset. I would get the phone app from XDA, remove it from the phone, and install it as a system app and see if that fixes it.
Otherwise, the only possible way I know of is through a custom ROM (you would need to be rooted). I know for a fact that Pure ROM has a setting to turn heads up notifications on/off, don't know if any others have the option.
I'm on Sprint, so I had to do the "Settings - > More - > Cellular Networks - > Preferred Network Type " and switch to 3G. It's a pain, but this is the only fix that works for me / until Sprint fixes the network CFSB issue.

This issue of incoming call screen not opening just started a few days ago for me. I've tried every possible fix I can think of, even doing a factory reset as a last resort, but the problem persists. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Update to the latest version of Android using an OTA image from Google's pages.
