    I never got MMS working, I`ve tried so many settings, even from 02 and nothing.
    Does yours get stuck on sending, or it looks like it sends but the receiver never gets it?

    I had a problem a while back, but I checked my settings.
    seems my settings had been changed, where it says APN type, make sure you have mms + internet selected.

    Hopefully that will sort you guys too :D

    hope this helps.but you cannot get pics thru text unless your use packet data and data roaming are on.this is how it worked for me.tbh i just send pics by email now i dont bother texting pics that much.its ok sending them but when people want to send them to you they need to tell you so you can turn on those settings which is a pain.if anyone has a solution to that please let me know.cheers

    Anybody know how I can disable the really invasive startup and shutdown tones on this Galaxy?

    Thanks.

    Anyone know how to add a percentage to the battery in the notification/status bar?
    I remember previously having it (might have been part of darky's rom), but have lost it since upgrading to darky's rom v9.5.

    It wasn't an extra icon. It was the default battery icon with white numbers in the middle showing the percentage.

    Have a look for Boot Animations ZIPS. There`s loads out there, as far as I know they might come with boot sounds, but is it that annoying, the 2 seconds it plays, unless you reboot/shut down 24/7 I`d leave them!

    Circular Battery can be a battery hogger, I had it ages ago and was experiencing bad battery drain and that was one of them, keep an eye on it, I think its not really needed.

    Have my Samsung Galaxy S for a few months now, had no problems since i got it but it wont connect to UPC WiFi at home. Nothing wrong with UPC cus PC and laptop connect fine... Did anyone else have this problem?

    I did have this problem. Cant remember how I fixed it though to be honest. I think it had something to do with the advanced wifi settings on the phone. Try deselecting "fixed IP" or selecting it.

    I also may have fiddled with the router settings, dont remember...

    A few months and your only asking this now? lol

    Does your phone see your router?
    Do you have MAC filtering?
    You can try Wifinder from the market and that will get you connected, then your default should also connect.

    Ya did`nt answer any of my questions, I can`t help you if you don`t tell me, :)

    Get Wifinder from the market and see if that works first


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,531 ✭✭✭Zonda999


    Odd issue here, Just yesterday my sgs was connecting fine to Kies, and there tonight, will not connect no matter what i do. The only thing i've changed on my computer since then is a routine update for Microsoft security essentials, thats it. Hardly even used the phone.

    Any idea's?

    UPDATE: Seems to be connecting now, how very temperamental..

    Sorry...:o
    Yes the phone can see my router... just downloaded WiFinder and it does the same thing "Obtaining IP address..." but i was able to drill into that and it says IP Address Error.
    What is MAC filtering? :confused::)

    to those with wifi issues, search the XDA forums

    I came across something once that recommended turning on allshare which helped but didnt fix it.

    No no, you don`t need to go near that muck, bloat ware is all that is, its ok, but gets boring after a while.
    Do you know what modem you have on your phone?

    Hi all,

    This is a great thread and thanks to all thus far -

    I'm a newbie to smartphones and Samsung Galaxy S so will be annoying you all over the coming weeks with questions !!:) I'm going from a Nokia 6230 so......

    2 to start -

    1. How do I get my contacts over from my old Nokia phone, I've tried taking the sim card out and putting into the Galaxy S but it fails to entertain it ! Doesn't know it's there !

    2. Can I set reminders like I could with my Nokia 6230? I used this a lot so could really do witha facility similar to it.

    TIA y'all

    You could try syncing them with gmail on your ahem Nokia, :) then you`ll be able to get on your SGS.

    You can detonate a nuclear warhead with this phone, of course you can set reminders, look for Remind me in the market, its nice and small and simple

    Re; Alarm Clock ....i've set mine twice recently, and it failed to GO OFF?

    Don't think I'm doing anything wrong? The little alarm clock symbol was on the home screen when I turned the phone off?

    Any tips?
