Search Google for that model / fake /clone MTK6577.
Its not a Samsung SGS3 .
Even a search of this forum may find an answer as enough fake / clone posts same model on here for some strange reason .Possible also check XDA Developers forums .

Wifi on my dual touch

Hi,
I ve read that we have Wifi-chip inside but it is not activated ! Is it true? Does anybody have Wifi on his dual touch?
Thanks !
From what I know only the Japaneese version has the wifi enabled. We don't know if the wifi can be enabled or not on european model. There are other threads in this forum where some people are trying to active the wifi, but there is uncenrtainty about the presence of the wifi antenna inside the device.
Bye!
Thanks,
The guy on another website was telling that he had opened his touch and had seen the wifi chip but not the GPS chip...

Help needed - htc amaze in india--kindly advice

hi guys,am planning to buy a htc amaze unlocked from the u.s for use in india on vodafone.is it possible...what problems will i be facing by using an unlocked phone in india or do i need to root the phone in order to use it...i heard that when we use unlocked phones in india the battery drains faster as it keeps searching for the signal...am a bit of a noob so dont know much about this....also in a previous post someone said that thier sensors werent working...is it bcos of country diff...i really like the phone and my cousin has one and says he can bring it ...so any help on this matter would be hugely appreciated...thanks a lot....
as long as they use GSM, you should be fine. the U.S. Version of Amaze is a pentaband world phone...it should work anywhere in the world...check your band frequencies with the provider and look in www.gsmarena.com under amaze 4g to see if those bands match, just to be on the safe side.
besides that I don't see any reason why you wouldn't be able to use the phone. You don't have to root.
here are the bands:
2G Network GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900
3G Network HSDPA 1700 / 2100 or HSDPA 1700 / 1900 / 2100
HSDPA 850 / 1900 / 2100

I use it in India and it works fine on BSNL and Vodafone. You don't have to root if you don't want to.
"battery drains faster as it keeps searching for the signal." - this is BS. Of course you can root the phone and get rid of bloat to improve battery life. I get 1.5 to 2 days of battery.
Sensors don't have anyting to do with country.

Galaxy Ace S5830L on AT&T no data?

Hi Everyone,
Anyone using the S5830L variant with UMTS 850 & 1900 on AT&T?
Does AT&T's system recognize the phone and automatically add a smartphone data plan? I'm thinking about getting one for a family member who doesn't need a data plan.
So nobody uses this phone on AT&T's network in the USA? Anyone? Anyone?
Ive not seen any AT&T ppl on here.
If the phone is contract then the contract will stipulate it and their site says they are compulsary. If its PAYG then it cant charge you if you havent any credit and you can easily turn data off. Otherwise I expect they will just charge standard daily fees.
I went ahead and purchased one off Amazon.
Instead of the S5830L model I received the S5830M model which has UMTS 850/1900 support.
Works great on AT&T's 3G network after entering the correct APN even though they don't recognize what model phone it is.

Thanks. The phone is for a non-techie relative. It'll remain stock.
I can't seem to find the stock ROM for it anywhere (WHLA1) so I might try my hand at extracting it and creating an Odin flashable stock ROM.

Tab S6 regional differences

Hi all,
I'm currently looking into purchasing a Tab S6 since it has all the right features in what I am looking for in a tablet.
Bit of a problem is, that I am based in Germany. For some unknown reason Samsung does not offer the Wifi 8GB RAM/256 GB storage variant here, which would be the sweet spot for me.
Luckily I will be traveling to the USA very soon and I am thinking about picking the Wifi 8GB RAM variant up there.
Is there anything I have to watch out for in terms of differences in variants between the devices sold in Germany and the USA? I haven't found much information about this online and I also don't expect there to be many differences as I am not buying the LTE variant but I just want to make sure before purchasing.
Many Thanks.
I thought this specifications has the LTE variant only ... . My was delivered just yesterday btw. I'm in Germany too.

Can you tell me if the LTE version could be used as a phone?
Not the phone sync stuff. Just Sim card and go?

Thank you. I was going to get the s4 and the s6 was coming out so I decided to wait. The only information I could find about the s6 phone capabilities was the sync stuff. I'm not interested in that at all. Plan on replacing my current phone with the s6.

The small triangle icon appears only when when you insert the SIM card. The slot for it is the same like for the micro SD.

Yes, exactly just like a normal mobile phone. Of course there an option to connect to an other mobile phone but this is a different thing and has nothing to do with tab's s6 LTE function.
If you got a LTE model which is more expensive then the WIFI variant, it's just like a mobile phone.

it says just LTE on your so first difference. ı will check it again when i get home. if the hardware is the same, maybe flashing your variant firmware can solve the problem.

Maybe just check out the slot, if there is place for a SIM, insert one and see what happens... .
Or do you think, your president disabled the call function for obvious reasons

I found the problem. My device is SM-T867. probably a cut version of SM-T865. I have already put my sim card and can access to internet even send sms but no phone calls. i even tried third party dialer apps but no result. i am curious if i flash 865 firmware to it, will it brick it?

That's a good question ... . But I guess odin will refuse it.
Btw., if you have a galaxy phone, it's possible to make calls with the tab, it will use then the phone.

Samsung J3 question

I'm sorry if this is not the right place to ask, but I didn't find anywhere else to ask. I have a Samsung J3 Android and it suddenly could not receive or send calls. I searched for an answer and found none. Anyway I finally turned on wifi calling and everything worked again, It had always been on cellular. Now it will only work on wifi calling. When I switch it back to cellular it does not work again. Can anyone help me with this or tell me where to go for an answer? Thank you for any help you can offer.

I'm not sure which one it is. I do know that the only options are for 2g and 3g. Maybe there is a firmware upgrade for it.
