Try reinstalling or even re-flashing the .nbh file?
i did not flash anything exept that one time to unlock the phone. The first and now second time intalling these builds i did not flash anything. The tutorial says nothing about flashing anything....am i wrong? If so, how do i do it? and how/when do you flash nbh?
and i did check the modem app and it says its connected.....but still no data
everything works except data.....anyone?? Thanks
Hm..i have work internet, but market & Gmail doesn't work. Why? Modem App work well,i see my ip, at browser internet work.
Hello,
This is my first post so I apologize in advance if it is in the wrong area or if the answer is common knowledge. I looked the best I could and was unable to find a solution to my problem.
The issue is recently when I try to download files from within the browser I receive the message "Download Unsuccessful" and the file does not download. This has happened numerous times of the last few days and is now at the point where I cannot seem to download anything directly from the browser.
An example of things I am trying to download are podcasts off of PodcastAlley.com (podcastalley.com/podcast_details.php?pod_id=20249) and also I have had the issue when trying to download an file from megaupload/rapidshare etc.
I found a lot of people had this issue with the market however my market works fine and I am able to download apps. I have tried clearing the cache/data of the market and download manager etc but it has resulted in nothing.
I should also mention that I have this problem over Wifi, 3g and Edge network connections so I really dont know what to think. Aside from factory reset, does anyone have any ideas as to what I can try? Thanks!
EDIT: forgot to say that this issue seems to have appeared since I flashed the stock frf91 update for custom recoveries as I currently have RA recovery.
Well, I feel silly. I found out what my problem was when I went to transfer the files to my SD card after downloading them on my pc; it turns out my SD card was full.
Yes, a little embarrassing, and a little funny but I am glad I got my problem sorted out. In gingerbread 3.0 I would like to see something that tells me why my download failed next time haha.
I just did the same thing yesterday.
It's ok, brain farts happen.
Hi guys,

I am going to try the hotspot shield later today. Can anyone else try it and let me know if it worked for them. I read on some other forums that if you turn off your anti-virus and firewall it has worked for some people.
Please keep updating here if you are able to get it to work or not.

I tried this and it did not work. I tried turning off my Anti-Virus and Windows Firewall. Also downloaded Hotspot Shield but then the internet was not working and was unable to upgrade on Kies. Does anyone know how to use hotspot shield in the UAE and to make it work??
crypto errors - samsung server
I've tried to update about 50 times over the last week. It finally worked.
It's Samsung server probems. When you start downloading via Kies, the download breaks but it does not stop the installation programme. When it tries to decompress and decrypt the damaged files you get the CryptoError.
Finally it worked for me today. There is only one solution to this at the moment - keep updating till you drop dead or manage to do it.
Kies is a joke!
updated finally
Updated finally to froyo. I think it was something wrong with the samsung server. In a day I used to try least 5 times. Phew! I think you guys must try it. Maybe they fixed it now. The update is really good. There are some UI changes but minor. Best of luck.
@imad604 Many users are not able to use hotspot in UAE. Try updating to froyo now i think it's fixed.

Did you install the drivers? Does Odin find your tab?
EDIT: this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1315364 is CWM flashable firmware, you can't flash this with Odin!
Yeah it finds it, and i ahve the drivers installed, ahh how stupid of me lol, well atm im downloading the asian firmware from samsfirmware, which i will try to use, and then I will flash it with http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1315364, will this work? or am i being stupid again?
Thanks for the help!
How did you brick it in the first place? What did you try to do?
If you are in Europe, why not just flash European firmware on it?
I tried to install the clock work recovery app, which when i ran crashed my tab, and it was stuck in the intro loops. I can get into the odin download mode as i said before, but thats it. Thats a fair point, but i cant find the european firmware, would much appreciate it if you could link it to me!
Thanks

I am having two problems on my Samsung Galaxy S Plus GT-I9001.
The first one, of not being to able to download apps started day before yesterday. When I tried to update apps via Play Store, it would just be stuck at starting download, and the actual download won't start. The bar just kept moving like it does before download starts, but actual download does not start.
I searched for solution to this problem, and tried the steps on Google support... to clear cache and data for Google Framework Services, and Download Manager, and Google Play Store services. Tried that, nothing happened.
So, I decided to do a factory reset, in the hope that, that would solve the problem. And so I performed the factory reset, but the problem is same as before. Still cannot download apps from Play Store.
Yesterday, when I tried to download update for apps, it showed error 927 sometimes. Other times, it shows nothing, but just gets stuck at starting download.
However, I was able to download two apps, which makes it strange. I was able to download Street View for Maps, and Voice Search. But, the downloading for others didn't work.
I searched for solutions to the problem of error 927, and I tried different solutions I could find, but none have worked. I tried the extensive steps given on this thread here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=33762494&postcount=8
I tried it several times, but so far this has not worked. It's making me a bit frustrated.
Second part of the problem is that, after the factory reset my phone is in the state that it first came. An upgrade to my phone firmware is there from Samsung. I have Samsung Kies installed on my system, and I have successfully done an upgrade to my phone earlier to the latest firmware being offered from Samsung.
So, I tried the upgrade via Samsung Kies. Strangely, it shows what version of firmware I have on my phone, but does not show the name of the version available, it's blank. However, it does inform that an upgrade is there.
So, I start the upgrade, and it performs an initial download, asks for UAC clearance twice, and then the firmware upgrade window comes up, where it starts to download the firmware upgrade files. Then, a Notice window comes up, with something written in Korean or Chinese, I don't know, with an OK button. When pressed OK, the firmware upgrade process closes, and then the phone disconnects from Kies, and is connected again, and then it again shows that a firmware upgrade is available.
I tried upgrading multiple times, same thing occurs. How am I supposed to understand the Notice in Korean/Chinese... that's stupid.
Also, the latest versions of Kies, starting from version 2.5.0 do not support GT-I9001. I had to download version 2.3.3 in order to use Kies to connect to my phone. Because the official upgrade is offered via Kies for I9001. Samsung is not offering update via OTA.
I am using Windows 8, and Samsung Kies works fine.
So, please help me with these two problems... downloading of apps problem, and performing upgrade of my phone.
I haven't rooted my phone.. it's just over a year old.. bought it in January last year. So, warranty is over.
I am also a newbie, and I haven't performed any rooting, or haven't yet gone into recovery mode, etc. So, if I have to do that, will need proper steps, and explanation .
Thanks.
Update via ODIN. Takes some time and patience but it works much better. See the the index in the GT-I9001 i've made a tutorial

Am getting crazy here.
I keep trying for the downloads once in a while. So, I tried downloading again, and this time, the downloads started normally. I updated 3 apps.. Gmail, Google Search, Maps. I also downloaded Flashlight app. After that, I tried to download more, but now again same problem is happening... stuck on starting download. Tried downloading different apps, same. I don't know what the heck is happening.
Any solution will be appreciated.
What might have caused this? After a factory reset, things should have worked fine, but why even after a factory reset, there are problems?
Which google play version do you use?
Thanks for the link.
The Google Play version on my phone which it installed automatically when I had performed factory reset is 3.10.14

If you have the newest one; V4.0.25 then go to settings > apps > manage apps (or on ICS/JB scrol to all) then search for google play and for Play services and wipe data/cache on both apps.
Well, I have version 3.10.14, and as said in my first post, I have already tried that multiple times, that is, clearing data and cache for the Google Play Store, Play Store Service, Google Services Framework, Download Manager.. but the problem is still there.
There are no updates shown for Google Play Store on my phone.
I have Gingerbread 2.3.6 on my phone.. XXKQD.
About performing upgrade with Odin, how do I know which stock firmware I should upgrade to.
Well, ive searched error 927 via Google ( ) and it means a server error on the developers side. Meaning the playstore/application has issues. Whichs cant be solved by us users

Also did you tried a complete factory reset?

Well, I too had searched for this error yesterday, and as said in my first post, it is quite a common error, and I found some solutions, like the one you told, to clear data/cache, etc. But that does not work.
It does not necessarily mean that the problem is on developer's side, otherwise, it wouldn't have been solved with the different solutions.

Well, I have performed a factory reset, which is available in the phone under Privacy.
Is there any other form of factory reset? What's a complete factory reset? How is it different from the factory reset there in the phone?

Factory reset via recovery? Can also help..
And yes if you have the correct one then you can search for it on samsung updates or sammobile
Update on the issues - one issue solved
Seems like the problem is with Play Store, and that's why I was not able to download the apps. Now, the apps are downloading fine, without my doing anything. First, it was working randomly... but now, am able to download all apps. I now feel stupid to have performed the factory reset on the phone so soon.
Seems like Google are rolling out a new version of Play Store, and so I think that's the reason behind the downloading issues. But, its strange why it happened to me only. Anyone else with GT-I9001 experienced this issue?
About the second problem of not being able to upgrade the firmware via Samsung Kies.. I wrote to Samsung, since I have not got any helpful reply from here on the forum. They wrote back to me, giving me the address of Samsung Smart Cafe in the city, and telling me to go there. That's just stupid. For a problem with their software, why should I be the one going to the Smart Cafe. Obviously, they will charge me for their services there. I have written back to them, about this, that it's a problem with their software.. its showing non-English messages whereas the installation language was chosen to be English. Let's see what they reply... but I am not expecting any helpful reply. It will be just wishy-washy.
I may try upgrading the firmware via Odin, but I am thinking if it's worth it. The official firmware upgrade isn't so good, and has bugs.
I am thinking that if I have to upgrade via flashing, then why not root the phone, and install a custom ROM.
Can anyone please tell me about a stable and efficient good custom ROM for GT-I9001? ... or should I open a new thread to ask about it?
Am an absolute newbie with all this rooting, and flashing, and have no idea about the ROMs.
