olaolayink: pls how can i upgrade my Samsung galaxy s2 to jelly beans

Check first few pages for steps on how to upgrade/flash a stock ROMs. Just get a newer ROM. Samsung-updates(dot)com

waleh89: Pls help me my samsung s2 stops at the samsung Logo and off again,I have done manual flashing and the problem still persists. Pls what can I do

Reboot into recovery and do a dalvik and cache partition wipe first, or do a full wipe as last option. And unless you have a custom recovery like regular CWM or PhilZ, stock recovery will also wipe all the files on your internal SD. So I advice you use Custom recovery.

Don't understand all the jargon I wrote? Read the flashing steps on first few pages for better understanding.

Mannylex: Need your help guys, all of a sudden, there is no sound on my galaxy s2. Any application that requires sound ends up hanging my phone. Poweramp doesn't open anymore, the stock music player opens after a while, but says audio file can't be played when I click on any song. MusiXmatch does the same thing. Videos won't play, i also observed my fifa 14 doesn't open any more, i guess itz coz of the sound involved and the welcome video... It just shows a black screen and goes off. I can't make nor receive calls. My phone doesn't ring, coz it ends up hanging when, a call tries coming in. Itz Damn frustrating. I have done a factory reset and also a hard reset, but no luck. I also observed that earpiece doesn't work either... Has anyone experienced this? Does anyone have any idea? Plz help

I would say do a full wipe and flash a stock ROM. Try Gingerbread one as last resort, see if it fixes. If not, I think your phone is saying. 'E DON DO, I DON TIRE TO WORK'.

Brainrex: From nokia e6 official to s2/s3/note 3
I dey watch you since from angle 98

Lol! You forgot S4 mate!

Spanishmario: xo which z preferable among the range

Get Note 2 if you can. But if note, Note 1 is preferable for your budget

nonsovich: Pls any1 wit an idea of wot i can do to make my samsung galaxy core which stopped charging after falling into water to start charging again

Sorry mate, i won't support this mobile.

Incase you didn't know, added the Link to my Note 3 Facebook group to first post,

https://www./OfficialSamsungGalaxyNoteIII/

Also, added Note 2 and Note 3 to the devices I will support. Cheers!

Spanishmario: Helooooo guruz in da house...btw S2 nd Note1 which is advisable for a game nd picture freak to get...fenkz

Non actually. But a 'Game and Picture freak' I believe needs a big screen. So Note 1 > S2 for you.

einsteino: Dude you obviously dont know what the U.S law calls assembled is pratically the same thing as produced. There is no phone that is wholly produced in a country, you must have one part or the other that was imported. I stand to be corrected that the iphone 5 was produced in china

*Assembled

Flash Stock ROM via ODIN.

Why derail my thread guys?! WHY?!! NOT COOL GUYS! NOT COOL!

DAvIt0: Mehn!!! been enjoying my whole trips on this thread..... Good Thread @Stanley08

Cheers mate!

kofsy: Oh! I see... How about buying it in a shop in the UK? The person buying it for me is presently not in Nigeria. And someone also told me that phones that are imported into Nigeria are generally of low quality. For example, my former blackberry(touch 2) was bought her in Nigeria, but when I saw the one my cousin bought in the UK, it looked very neat and lasted longer. What do you think? I can actually ask the person to buy it in a shop if ebay will not carry warranty #Confused

Forget about the low quality or whatever. if you buy from an un authorized dealer, why can't it be low quality? But you should walk into a samsung store and pick up the phone you want. Get your 2 years Warranty. if anything goes wrong, just go and drop ot for them there. If they can't fix it, BRAND NEW phone. Dats why you got warranty. But if you don't care about warranty, you can buy from anywhere... As long as it is brand new, it's fine.

kel2me: hm whether you bought/buy the phone outside or in Nigeria, as far as u can use the phone for up to a year without any problemo, i dont see why u shud call it low quality 'even' if its truely low quality

You are a smart man!

kofsy: Hi stanley et al! Pls do you think buying an S4 from ebay is advisable?

Buy brands new here in Nigeria and get ADH warranty. Accidental damage from handling warranty. Free Screen and motherboard replacement Twice! Over 2 years. Trust me, if ur screen damages. It will cost u over 50K to fix.

Victor Tobore: Pls stanley can u explain to me in clear details hw I am going to update my custom rom and kernel.I am scared of bricking my phn,happened to b4 when i was still using my s3 and it was like one week in hell for me.I am using a galaxy note 2 international version(gt-N7100) and I am running hawkish rom extreme and persius kernal.Although my rom shows no date when I go to about device but my kernel shows april 2013,pls I need your help.

Different ROMs have different procedures, and now, Samsung are implementing alot of security features. Go to the thread of the ROM and read on the steps to upgrade to the latest version from the one you are on. You might have to flash a modem before dat maybe... So u don't lose your IMEI. Do you have your EFS backup also?

[quote author=O.michael.O]lol..you got me wrong
am a big fan of whatsapp by i get tired chatting and all.i used the bbm for few hours when it came.nt dat am nt updated[/quote]Lol. Okay mate... If you say so. I believe I use WhatsApp everyday.

[quote author=O.michael.O]New features..hmm
patiently waiting..besides i barely use IM apps..even whatsapp
[/quote]Really?! This is the 21st century mate! Catch up!

yeayemi: Pls someone help, I just got a samsung galaxy s4 five days ago and I was impressed with bthe way it worked not until yesterday when I tried charging it, now instead of the conventional green sign that it shows while charging, now it shows grey battery sign with circle in the middle of the battery and shuts down every 10 seconds. Even when I put usb cord to connect it with the computer, the computer does not recognize it... I will really appreciate any help.

Did you buy the phone brand new?

[quote author=O.michael.O]i hope so.
Even tho' they've killed the spark[/quote]Lol. Yes mate! They killed it really! Let wait and see, i think they might have worked in some new features and dats why it took some time... But again. Only time will tell...

An update on BBM for Android.

BBM is expected to release to android "within days' said Blackberry CMO on Monday. No exact date was specified. But rumors have it that it will be today or tomorrow. Cheers!

Emekayoung: Pls can dis etisalat plan work on samsung android phone?

Where did you see etisalat?! :O I said airtel. And yes, I have a Note 3. Who uses Blackberry in the 21st century?!

Desloaaa: i was surprised when my friend said whatsapp is not compartible with her Z10.Na wa o..so after BBM that phone is just a log of wood.#Teamtecno# till weird Mc wears skirt

I'm not a BlackBerry fan, but mate! Be calm! Many ladies are not familiar with tech. And you would know if you were. WhatsApp only works on OS10.1 and later. The Z10 sold in Nigeria, especially the earlier ones come as 10.0.Bleep STL100-1. So upgrade is required.

Tell her to go to Software Updates inside settings, do the upgrade. then she will be able to use WhatsApp. Same goes to the thread creator. Cheers!

bigboy4: Can anyone pls tell me wat is the best netwrk plan for BlackBerry 10 phones... cos am nt enjoying ma 260mb frm etisalat..

When u can pay 1,500 for 2GB on airtel *440*16#
Or even 3K for 6G, for 3 months *440*016#

U are in last position. Sit up mate.

Oyindamolapeach: Ok guys,av gotten my s4 back,,buh d fone is as empy as a desert,,pls wch apps can I download on d fone? Den wats jelly bean?

Login to your google account and download from Play Store.
Settings > More > Accounts. Choose add account then select google. Now login.

OR

Pull down your notification bar with 2 fingers instead of one then press and hold (long press) the 'Sync' button there. Then select add account and then Google. Login.

After login in, Open Play Store in your app drawer and download the apps you need there. Cheers!

kofsy: Lol

Lol, why are you laughing.

You are a lady, just buy the HTC One. It's beautiful. You will love it. If you were a guy I'd say Galaxy S4. As me, I'm all about Samsung.

You might have to upgrade ur phone software to OS 10.1 at least for it to use WhatsApp.

Add me up. Username is Stanley083. Will be glad to beat you.

Cheers

Haha! Thanks mate!

Deruze: that's ok

Cheers mate!

@DERUZE, Sincerely mate... I don't mean to offend you... I'm only trying to make a point and some laughs too... Don't take offence. I'm a lover, not a fighter!

[quote author=BRAINZ_Box]A person who buys a cheap fone nly knows hw to sew his clothes according to his size..nxt time if u dnt knw hw to help jst stay mute.[/quote]Btw, it's cut ur cloth according to your size. Na u be the tailor wey sew am?!

Mate! If you buy a cheap Techno, dats wat you can afford, fine! No problem there! But then you expect it to run high end games like FIFA14. Dat doesn't make any sense!

It's like trying to use a bicycle to tow a truck! My dear friend, go and play ZUMA.

caukerzee: SD card does all that for me though.

U are not a noob!

Deruze: Finally I've downloaded the commentary. It took me, 4hrs. But the game is kinda slow on my tecnol3. Is there anything I can do to improve the speed!?

Try buying a phone that is not cheap.

ewizard1: Galaxy S3 got JellyBean yet?

Na wah oh! Guy how far u now? U dey stay for cave ni?
Since last year nah. Siiiiince! Even S2 got It since last year.

sheelay: Tnx a lot mate, really appreciate.... One more thing tho, I have to copy from old to new phone using a pc, yea?

I'm guessing it's the most ideal way. old phone to pc (backup), then pc to new phone. Simple!

sheelay: @stanley n other gurus, pls if for example, I'm getting a new phone, n I have titanium backup pro on my old phone, is there anyway I can backup up all my apps on the old phone n restore it on the new one? Pls, i need ur answers.... Thanks in anticipation

Some titanium backup files I have on my phone now, I have been using since my Xperia Neo V. to Arc S, to HTC Desire HD, to S2, S3, S4 and now on my Note 3. So, yes! mate. As long as you are not backing up system apps, you will be fine. All you need do is copy the 'TitaniumBackup' folder from the internal memory of ur old phone to the internal memory of the new phone. Then root the new phone and restore backup.

WARNING: Do NOT backup/restore system apps. It may cause instability. Backup only User apps, those are safe.

Cheers!

Deruze: e dey break

When I downloaded mine, it was breaking but I kept retrying and it kept working. just as guy above said... I used my WiFi sha.
