As the title says if you cant get one is there any other option?
My closest friend is 1.5 hours away.
What do you mean?
How can i activate the watch without a samsung device.
There isn't a way i have found that you can activate the watch without pairing with a Samsung first
Your friend is an hour and a half away but there should be a best buy or att store nearby.

Hey guys so i just got the galaxy s ii and sold my captivate running cm7 to my roommate. We turned off mobile data and stuff i thought we were golden. But later that night he got a text saying he was auto put into a data plan. There was about 5 mins at the start i forgot to go to cm7 settings and turn mobile data off. I am going to call at&T and make up something to get when to take it off. So after will he be golden? Or is there no way around it.
Note* when he wants to use data he uses wifi . Otherwise it sent let him.
Thanks!!

At&t will recognize the captivate via the imei number. Afaik no getting around the data plan for smartphone requirement.
No way to spoof the imei?

There are ways but you won't find the answer on xda.
Sadly AT&T is greedy like that. I know for a fact Tmobile PR doesn't care. =/

Colts,
I''ve done the research for you. None of the major carriers will activate an unlocked phone. Only one is T-Mobile. You can get a SIM card for ten bucks and pay twenty a month for 550 mb. That's what I did.

It's not a phone. That is something to keep in mind. You can use Google Voice or other call-over-data software, but there isn't native phone functionality. It's great as a camera that can still run applications, but if you are looking for a phone first with a great camera second, it probably shouldn't be the first choice.
As for activation, most carries do not WANT to activate an unlocked device, but if it has a clean ESN, they will eventually agree. Worst case, you get whatever free 4g piece of garbage they are offering, pop the sim in the one you want and put theirs on eBay. That is if you even need 4g, which in this case you would.
Not entirely true. If you have an unlocked Galaxy Camera, you can get T-Mobile data plan for $20 bucks (550 mb). Using Google voice and Talkatone, you have a functional phone. No difference whatsoever from a regular smartphone. As a matter of fact, I turned off my S3 and was getting regular calls through "the camera."
My only warning is make sure it's unlocked. Amazon sent me an AT&T locked phone instead of the unlocked that they advertised. I did return it and I'm waiting to get a new "unlocked" phone today. Also, boot in odin mode to make sure it's not a used phone. Mine had been flashed 5 times by someone else and then sold to me as new. Beware, lot's of crooks out there.

i have samsung exhibit t-599n from metropcs i need to get it unlock so i can use it with different network, is there any way i can do it without paying $40-$50 to get it unlock
Wing forum. But call your metro and tell them your going to another country for a few weeks and need too unlock it. If they say no threaten to go to another network lol

Hi,
I'm selling my AT&T Galaxy S5. I want to keep it "as new", boxed, etc. so I've never turned it on. I was just wondering if there is any activation process with the phone? (I'm using the SIM in another phone, and the SIM is already activated.) I don't want to send the phone to someone, and have then be unable to use it. If there's an activation process with the phone then I'll put my SIM in and start it up once before sending off the phone.
Thanks a lot for your help!
Nope. It should just work.

Be careful, the expectation is that Samsung region-locked all of the S5's sold in N America, so you would need to make a five minute phone call within the N American market before selling the phone. You can find more info here: http://www.androidauthority.com/galaxy-s5-region-lock-367402/

Thanks guys. The person buying the phone is also US-based, so as long as they can use it with their AT&T SIM in the US I think all will be well.
Wifi issues after t-mobile send a mandatory update. somebody else with this issue.
Hi,
I can't find anything relevant on XDA for your issue, so I will request your thread be moved to your device section, here...
> T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 4 > T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting
Good luck!
This is the T-Mobile Q&A thread.
Do you know where i can find the right rom for my note 4? The Build number is N910T-RAC-CONVERSA-ITEP.2014.10.10.1645
I flashed the t mobile rom and forgot to backup original. The t mobile rom works but some of the features don't work like the finger print unlock. And the wallpapers are all blank.

I don't know anyone else who has a note 4. Is there any other way?

Try your nearest cell phone repair store or the geek squad.
There's always Samsung repair center.
If you actually have the rent a center phone they probably will just give you a new one if you ask them right since they are trying to string out the payments a bit if I recall.
I try back and rent a center and see what there can do.
