Stuck at "Obtaining IP address" - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

When I connect to our network in the office, I always get stuck here. I easily connect when I'm at home. I'm running 5.1.
From what I have in another thread, I need to delete dhcp_list and dhcpcd-eth0.lease. I also understand I need root access; I do not want to root my phone yet, as it is still under warranty.
Is there another way to fix this? Thanks.

no root?

Is there an app for that? Something I can run on the phone itself?

Thanks man.
Will give your suggestion a whirl.

Seems I can't run adb commands. I'm assuming because the phone is not rooted.
Anything else I can try?

HOX+ can't do that. It would probably be best if you owned the device before trying to offer help troubleshooting problems with it.

Flash a file without booting into recovery

I need to flash a file that locks the bootloader. It contains Aroma Installer. Is there a way to flash it without booting into recovery? Something linke an app that flashes the file directly from the phone?

I would use the ADB commands to boot into recovery. Also might want to look into logcats to see what the issue is.

Bricked Two Phones, need help

Hey!
I accidentally bricked two of the exact same phones, and I dont know how to unbrick them. They both are Samsung SGH-T959V's. They are pretty old, and I wanted to put a newer OS on them. Here is what is wrong with them:
Phone 1: Can boot into TWRP but when I try doing anything, it just gets stuck, forever.
Phone 2: Screen has multicolored lines all over it. Kinda like tv's when you go to the wrong channel.
I would be really grateful if anyone can help.

The multicolored lines are due to not having the GB bootloader.

Always go with the recommendation of the installation notes. Just think about it in the terms of tools. You might need a phillips head screwdriver to fix something, but they make different sized ones for the job...

[Q] Red Triangle error when installing lolipop

Hi,
I am getting a Red Triangle error when installing lollipop. The first of 2 updates went successfully. But the 2nd wont install. I have wiped the phone but no luck. This phone has not been rooted.
Any help would be great.
try using the verizon updated when you connect your phone to the computer. usually that works.
How exactly do I do this? I haven't hooked my phone to my PC much before?
Just connect it and the phone will tell u if u want to run it as a installer is self explanatory once u run it
