Is there a kies available for the US versions of the GS2? I remember it not working with the vibrant at all.

its on ur phone called kies over air, where they can do updates through ur phone.
I've used it to transfer a 700mb avi and it worked flawlessly, a little slow though. I was also able to read and reply to text messages via the Web browser on my computer. I think it's neat.

It says they are getting Froyo for their Galaxy S phone (the Mesmerize) in March. Hope this has nothing to do with our update...

Verizon SHOULD be updating theirs in 2 days. Might happen, might not. Idk. Cant bring myself to worry about these things any longer.
Has anyone figured out how to fix the at&t ota update issue? I just a new red s3 yesterday and when i check for ota updates, i get an error message that says the phone cant connect to the servers bacause they are busy and the phone will automatically check in 48 hrs. This is a new one for me. I also cant connect to kies via computer so when jelly bean is released, ill be sol. Any ideas?

I just got back from the at&t store and they were gonna exchange the phone but the new phone did the same thing. Also, one of the employees tried it on their personal phone and it did the same thing. Hmmm.
Maybe area related?

Mine did that too. Fixed after I rooted. I'm now running stock but rooted and the check for updates now works fine.
My son just got an S3 yesterday -- I'll have to see if this is working on his. He hasn't rooted yet, but he will in the next day or so; hence, maybe it's a moot point.

So I bought Madden NFL 12 for $4.99 on my Samsung Galaxy s3.
It was a 10mb download from the playstore. Open up the app and it says I need to download 300MB of additonal data. So i start to download it and pretty much the progress bar doesnt work. I tried over WIFI/Data. The bar doesnt move at all.
I couldnt refund it cause I originally thought it was a WiFi problem I had.
Anyway I have posted some screenshots for further clarification.
FYI I am on Android 4.0.4 on a Samsung Galaxy S3 (Bell Canada). I tried downloading with and without root to no avail.
Any help will be appreciated.

I ran into the same thing. I had it on my infuse (stock GB, rooted) and couldnt load it on my S3 (stock At&t 4.0.4) from the play store so I did a backup from my infuse with mybackuppro then did a restore on my S3. I just had to check the box to "install apps from unknown sources".

If anyone sends him the pm and I catch wind of it. I'll infract both of you for warez ,no questions asked.
BTW jainyankee consider this as a warning bout warez. Xda doesn't condone talk of it,ways to do it and distribution of warez.
Pro nfl 13 is much better anyway. Get that. Just came out last week.

Ive got a Samsung wave with I purchased in Germany. 2 years should moved to the us where I tried to update the firmware. Idont remember specifically but the update did not go through and the phone did not work anymore.
I used the debug mode and installed some rom I found on the internet. Can't remember which. Now they phone works fine if it's on, but shows that screen with 2 laptops or whatever when powered on and NOT connected to a PC. Really annoying as it often turns off when I have it in my pocket.
I kinda gave up on it as I got a new phone. Now that I lost that one I am trying to fix the wave.
If anybody could hint me in the right direction in a mental friendly way it would be much appriciated.

Hello.
If you remove Battery...
You see phone model... + Serial Number S/N...
With Software Kies you could check exact Firmware...

you need to flash your phone with officially Kies or manually with Multiloader
Thanks alot guys that was way easier than I thought. When I tried it a year ago or whatever kies didn't update it and I thought it was because of the unofficial rom or because I am in the us.
I have another question so: I do not have access to paid apps and it seems to be a greatly reduced number of unpaid once. I am running bada 2.1.
Would it help if I have some relatives sent me a German prepaid card? I seem to remember that this worked in the past.
Are there any worthwhile custom roms out there?

Hey guys,
Just trying to figure out how to do this.
I have a TMobile Samsung Galaxy Note 2 and i recently purchased a new asus laptop/tablet and it comes with Asus Instant Connect which allows you to use your samsung phone to tether with the laptop, BUT the application is only for Nexus, S2, S3, and NOTE, but not NOTE 2, so how can I make the computer think that I have an S3 instead of the NOTE 2
by the way, this application requires to have kies installed.
Please advise
You could just edit your build.prop to change what your device is an as, but I'm betting in this case it would be a little more in depth then just telling it you're using an s3.

Yep, i already changed the build.prop from T889 to T999 and restarted the phone but the program still knows
thats why I am asking on here lol

Probably would have helped to let us know that. As I guessed though it's more in depth then that so I won't be much help. Maybe one of our genius devs will swing by

If the computer is scanning the literal hardware itself, you may be out of luck, but I could be wrong.
