ArxHead:
Please guys, i need your help. I traded my Note 3 with new S5 from one of these guys that returned for xmas from yankee. I didn't pay attention to details as this problem i am facing is clearly written on the pack. The guy told me its factory unlocked and a believed him only to find out that its not really... (As it is clearly written on the pack "AMERICAN SIM CARD ONLY"wink further findings reveal that "to use sim cards from other region, a cumulative call over five minutes must first be made with the sim card from AMERICAN operators. if a sim card issued from another region is used for activation, the phone may not work. in this case, the device will need to be released at the nearest samsung service provider) I am really confused on what to do as the guy has gone back to the states (he is suggesting i send it to him for activation but the cost and time... im without phone at the moment)

Please, my fellow guys... do anyone have a work-around to this problem. im thinking there might have been this kind of problem in the past. please, phone gurus, i need your help.

Thanks and God Bless in advance.
The phone is region locked. Short term solution i can see is you getting an American network sim that has roaming activated and use it to make the call or send the phone to your friend to do it from there. Cheers

Disabling/Deselecting ? Be clear... Your Signal or Data?

Try a Factory Reset...
Or Reflash a Stock Firmware!

Firstly go to Settings > App Manager > Scroll to Google Play, open and Clear Cache...

Try update again...

Or Google search the latest version .apk file and install from your phone.

pls house, I used another charger which is 2.0Ah to charge my 2 phones (bcoz the follow come chargers which are 200mAh are too slow-it do take like 1hr to charge 10%) and since then the phones have been misbehaving, it started with self charging with connection to electricity and inability to power it on when off, now when charged to 100% the battery meter will be constant when in use and dropped to 1% at once after like 1hr.pls somebody should help me out.

Why would you replace 200mAh with 2Ah? That's too much!

Besides, what kind of Android device has a 200mAh Charger, na Nokia Torchlight?

11 Phones To Watch Out for in 2015 - Part 1
In technology can only go one place...UP. Latest improvements are abound, processors are at blistering speed ,cameras are at eagle eye quality and cost...well,can only go one place...UP...lol.

No hope in sight yet for Blackberry as their products are not on my list(sorry to BB users,myself included) so without furthermore ado I give you the phone to watch out for in 2015....not in any particular order shaaa.

Samsung Galaxy S6-If you're a Samsung fan but would rather stick to a phone than a phablet then the S6 will be just what you're looking for. Samsung's finally expected to tackle the plastic build quality criticism that its S-series handsets have received, using an all-metal design in line with that of the Galaxy Alpha.

To flash Stock.. Visit www.sammobile.com
Register an account. Click on the FIRMWARE Tab, search your device model and download the latest Firmware version for your device. Download ODIN. Boot into Download Mode and connect your phone. Click on PDA / Phone and select the .tar Firmware file, hold on for like 3mins and click start. Wait till it finishes. Done!!!

Sorry for the MumboJumbo ... Was walking while typing this.

Not every game works even if you download the cache.

For your game... the game needs to be verified on the developer's DB/Server to know if you really paid for the game or not. Your game has been verified and it failed. You CAN NOT get it to work.

Forget it.

Hi guys, dunno if this is the right place to post this but I need help.

Wikipedia no longer loads on my fone. It's says no data received and empty error...unable to load page because no server was sent.

When I use Google to search other sites load but not wikipedia. It's really frustrating cos most detailed search are on Wikipedia.

You might be using a proxy that is blocking Wikipedia's ip or the dns server is not getting through to Wikipedia.
