They have stolen my phone!!! - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

One month ago I went to Belgium and my SGS disapeared from my pocket!!!
I had to stop my simcard. I lost every hope to find it again but when I went on the market webpage I saw that my old SGS was still signed in with my Gmail account!!! But now with a different carrier name: PROXIMUS. There are weird apps that i've never installed who are displayed on my google account!!
Maybe there is a method to find my SGS with my google account??
Does anyone have an idea??
Google usually sees the network location !
THanks

Did you have any lost phone app installed? If not, make sure you install one on your replacement, phone locator pro is pretty good

There's one on the market that you can install after it's been nicked. If you search where's my droid, then check related apps, you should find it. It's a pay app but I can't remember its name

Try logging in to you google account on market.android.com and find a spy program of some kind and choose to install it, it will be automatically installed on the phone and you might be able to find enough information to track it.

Found it! It's called plan b by lookout. Good luck!

Thank you very much i'm trying those apps now I think it's frightening this guy may use my account!!
Sending You Feedback soon

Updated Swype Beta

Has anyone been able to get the most updated version of Swype on work on the N1? I'm talking about the version with the button for voice command.

Yeah running it here. Big improvement.
I tried to install the update and it says that it's not optimized on my device. It won't swype at all. It only works as a normal keyboard.

Same, downloaded fine but no swype action.

I read the Swype forum and apparently you have to wait till a screen pops up and click enable. I was clicking back once it finished installing, so the license didnt' download.
Well I tried it again and this time it works awesome! Faster then ever, no notice in accuracy but I'm a swype ninja and that voice icon looks great in my corner he is mine and I shall call him mike

I'd kill to get in on the Swype beta. I'm growing tired of SwiftKey and its slowdowns.

Yeah I'm addicted to swype but hate their "sell it as hardware" business model and makes me really wish something better would come along because I will not buy a specific phone for swype because anything I pick won't get it, N1, G2 or the upcoming NS. Just sell the **** in market, even if it's $20, I'd rather pay the $20 to load it on whatever Android device I choose. It's all good for me being in the beta but I know it sucks for the rest of the world.
it only works fine for the first few days.
Now it sucks again ... just the same as September beta. Still can't delete words scraped from your address book, if you have 3K contacts with every name the world has ever known in every language, that sux.
For those wishing to get on the Swype Beta list the URL is https://beta.swype.com/android/create/.
I signed up when the registration period had ended and was able to get it some time in January. Hope this helps someone.

it wont install on the nexus s 4g sprint:
nevermind, i figured it out, had to uninstall google music first and then install this app. From playing with it for a little bit, it doesnt seem to give you the option to sync with your gmail account and if so that sucks ! all my music is on the cloud not locally on my phone, i guess i have to wait until someone tweaks it.

after hours and hours of playing with it, i found out if i clear the data, than uninstall the old version, install the new apk , i have the option to sync, i think it was the clearing data part that fixed it, but i have 12654, i have to sync them and now it works
Clearing the data is what does the fix, even if you uninstalled the previous version of Music.
Just wondering do u have to be rooted or is it possible to be stock and install? Also i have the gt-i9020t does it make a difference.
Man what a improvement in speed. I use google music and there was so much lag browsing through songs but after installing this its snappy. Thanks for posting this.
edit: just wish they would upgrade the widget
this has already been posted in here, but thanks.
clearing the data will allow sync.
Nice app

Hi -I have an i9020a running 2.3.6 - completely stock. I tried installing it and it went through the paces but then said "Application not installed".
I did not attempt any prior suggestions early posters mentioned such as clearing data and uninstalling before running an install. If it needs to be run on a rooted phone only then I might have messed it up. But would love to have it running.
Can this be installed on a stock ROM?

So much has changed here is the main menu
And when you create you're character you're given a nice description now too and older players will appreciate that you can name your character from the start.
Last is a screenshot of the new UI. I threw in the joystick because I like it but it isn't there by default.

Alot apparently I haven't played this one too much.
I like it so far, more refined then the first one. My biggest b!tch with it though is if your Xoom is wiped you lose all progress, with a game like this you think they would have some kind of cloud storage, also since you can buy in game points with real money, feels like a waste to invest so much time and have a woopsy moment and not be able to recover anything.
I love the online play with this though, seems a lot better than First Wave.

Well because it is free I believe I'm allowed to suggest that you search for the apk as a simple solution.
why it doesnt work on galaxy y?
any solutions to make it work on GT-S5360(galaxy y)??

I hoping it fixes the random disconnects. Never happened until the last FW update, then I got one every other day and it was pretty tiresome. Also never tracked it down but I keep randomly seeing something about host stopped working as well as "cannot install app to the Gear" when turning on the phone after being off or something of that nature.

I'm in the United States and have the Gear 2. I don't even see the US listed as an option on sammobile.
Seems to be improved user interface, havnt seen any difference yet, and S-Health performance, that i also have yet to see any difference in.

I can see it but still can't access the clocks in my gear manager after installing it. I am going back to d8. I downloaded the dd firmware for the UK and it gave me a fitness manager app. S health works now and syncs. But I started having an issue where my phone answers automatically or disconnects whenever I get a call while connected to my gear 2 neo. Also there is no us update for the dd firmware. I have searched high and low, but the knowledge and support for the gear 2 is very limited. Too many issues being reported out the box. My assumption is people who are rooted or using custom roms are having the most trouble. Good luck early adopters.
Thank you for the heads up. I'll wait

Samsung Spotify Promo Redemption

Now I got my S10 thru my carrier so spotify wasn't preloaded on my device. I was wondering if anyone has figured out how to redeem this??
Thank you.
I tried on my unlocked S10+ and followed the directions and after clicking the Premium tab there was only a free 30 days. I have never had an account before so I know that wasn't the problem. Anyone else find the same thing?
Worked for me. Att s10+ created an account, clicked on the premium tab and it had the offer for my Samsung device.
Nice find thanks

So you just clicked the premium tab and then what did it state all I see is a 30 day trial. Is your device unlocked or branded?

Mine is an ATT device.
Yes, when I clicked the premium tab it immediately opened a full page ad stating "with your Samsung device you are eligible for 6 months free" or something along those words.
So, looks like it may be a carrier feature that some have not hooked up. I'm used to that from Verizon, used to always lose most incentives.

Thanks for the info so maybe the unlocked phones don't get it...
Looks like I may need to create a new account
I am in TMO and not eligible...may be its carrier specific and/or new subscribers only

So I figured it out. Existing subscribers aren't eligible.
I logged out of my account and created a new one. It made me pick 3 artists. After that I got on this screen.
Looks like all you have to do is put a card on file and you are set.
I did a jump upgrade through t-mobile btw. I didn't get this through samsung or buy it outright.
Worked for me as well. New sign up, just asks for a card to bill when the 6 months are up. Never used spotify before, cool of Samsung to offer this
Not here, created new account... 30 days.
Unlocked via Samsung direct.
Spotify not preloaded!
Created a new account 6 months free
If you logged in first with a previous account, log off.
Go to settings, app, search spotify, storage, clear cache and data.
Open spotify, create a new account, go to premium, it should appear the samsung 6 months free now
Damn can we just get 6 months credit if we already have Spotify lol
I've tried everything and it won't work. I have an unlocked version.
