I have a 4g samsung exhibit 2 I rooted it it worked ok for 1 week. Now I turned it on and I have no internet . I have email. I am a Newbie to this, so Please bare with me. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Its a t mobile phone. Also can I unroot and use it normally?
It´s sounds like not a problem of Rooting. Maby you have in menu a wrong Setting. Check it. You can also test this. Turn off your Phone. Take out yiur Accu and you SIM. Wait few minutes and restart.
God Luck

Hi, I am new to this forum. Sorry if this thread is not in the right place.
I own an O2 XDA Orbit 2 aka HTC Polaris and today evening it froze on me. I tried soft boot, restarting, getting the batt/sim, memory card out but it just wont get past the boot up screen.
Its got the windows mobile logo with a volume bar overlapping it. It just stays on that and I have no clue what I need to do to fix it. I am a bit stressed as it got all me emails and some personal pictures and data which I cannot access.
I have also connected it to my PC via USB bit it wont let me explore the device. I would really appreciate it if someone can advise me on how to go about fixing this problem.
Many thanks
Try posting in one of the Polaris forums, you might get more help there

Hello there,
i have got the same problem as this gentleman has mentioned above, is it possible that someone can help us out with this annoying problem, i am very disappointed because its only 2nd day of my orbit 2 and it started behaving like this, your urgent replies will be highly appriciated.
Thanking you in advance.
I have had this a couple of times with my orbit - windows logo and volume bar just stting there. The only way I have resolved it is to perform a hard reset.
Hi. I just signed up and I need some help with my G1. I just did a reset of the phone through tmobile by holding the power and home keys down. A couple weeks ago a friend installed jesusfreke and showed me how to tether it wirelessly. Now when I type in tether start, it tells me "tether not found". How can I fix this? If someone can help me, could u please call me at work lol. I know its weird but I wanna fix this soon. I'm taking a road trip tomorrow and I want to tether my laptop to it for the road. Thx. 313-523-9466
Oh, my name is will.
Can anyone help???
Hi Guys!
I am having strange problem with my DS.
I cannot connect to my Google account,Facebook App is not working and...
Well to cut the story short pretty much any app that requires connection to the internet+credentials will not connect.Amazon appstore,Tweetcaster,Tweetdroid,Friendcaster...you name it...the only one that works is official Twitter App(weird).
When I'm tring set up my Google account all I'm getting is "Cannot establish reliable connection..." I know I am connected to the internet cos I'm writing this post on my phone.browsing internet is the only thing I can do.
Now I was searching net for this problem and the only suggestion was HARD Reset.I can rule that out cos I went even further.I flashed 5 different ROMs and problem still persist.
Next thing on my mind was there is something wrong with my carrier.Nope.rang them up and they claim all is ok on their side.I'm on 3UK and I have iPhone4 as well on 3 UK.on iPhone4 everything works flawlessly so I swapped SIM cards.guess what...the same thing on DESIRE S.
I am no noob and I went through literally all the platforms being able to solve 99% of my problems on my own but this one seems to be bigger than me.
If anyone came across this problem before or knows the answer please help.
Thank you in advance.

Okay, lets try to solve this one quickly.
First, some history...
When did this start happening?
Was everthing working well initially, and then suddenly this problem popped up, or has it been like this from the beginning?
Have you recently done any kind of modding or flashing to your phone prior to this?
Then, some diagnostic tests.
Do you have wifi?
If you do, Can you connect?
If you can, do your apps work well with the wifi connection?
Hi
Sorry i forgot to state this in first post.
Yes I have wifi and I when I'm connected to it everything works great.can connect to anything.
I did flash few ROMs while trying to fix this problem.no luck there.
And yes.it all started all of a sudden.before I was one happy DS owner.

Could you please go to Setting> Wireless & Networks> Mobile Networks and check if toggling Network mode helps?
Also make sure that you've selected the correct Access Point Name (The APN should say www)
Let me know what happens.
Nope.tried switching mobile networks on/off.nothing.airplane mode on/off also no luck.APN is right and I can confirm that cos I can browse Internet.it seems that downloading is fine but as soon I try "send something out" like email or tokens to connect to certain services it fails.

Must say i'm at a loss here. Usually whenever i have issues like this, going through the steps mentioned above rectifies it.
Sorry brother, i'm out of ideas here. Will try asking around for more. I hope someone with a better understanding of this will be able to help you out.
Best of luck!!
Thank you anyway.in this case any advise is good.i bet it's something stupid.
Have you tried different kernels? (Clutching at straws (but worth a punt)).
When you wipe before a clean install what do you do? Try the link in my sigi.
Any progress with your problem? If not I suggest you pm ben_pyett or olyloh or lowveld.
They're very good with this stuff and very helpful...

Hi guys.sorry I have been off the forum for a while.
This is totally strange.i found out that this is happening only at certain place.when I am at work problem is there but as soon as I get home everything works fine.it must be something related to cell I am connected to while in my work area.my colleague told me he is suffering from the same thing.he has HTC Desire HD and custom ROM on board and he is also 3UK customer.but what I don't understand at all is that my iPhone works like a charm using the same network.obviously I called customer service again and they claim there is nothing wrong with the network.
Thank you for all your suggestions guys.
So basically I updated my XE to the official ICS. Everything went fine, except one very important thing. Wi-Fi doesn't work anymore! I detects my Wi-Fi for about 5 seconds then it becomes "Not in Range".
I did a hard reset and booted the phone without the SIM, magically Wi-Fi worked.
However when I put it back, the problem shows up again
This is really pissing me off.
Here's some info that might help:
Carrier, Country: Syriatel, Syria
So I think I have 2 solutions:
1: Downgrade it back to Gingerbread, but I do not know how, please help
2: Some other way that can fix it now.......
Probably has to do with this :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=21406675
Should fix you right up
my phone is not rooted
Oh, shoot.
Well if pulling the sim out like that solves the issue I guarantee it's the country code thing.
I'm sure they'll be fixing it soon...sounds like a common problem
Ok thank you!
I've talked to HTC and they said they're working on a fix.
BUT! Is there a way to downgrade it to the old GB? (RUU's maybe?)
Many thanks!
is there any luck to fiend solution ?????? without root please?
My wifi was working fine before but yesterday I tried getting on wifi and the position seems to be stuck. It seems like it was to connect but it wont connect, i leave my phone to try and connect for many hours and it doesnt. I go to mysettings to try and turn the wifi position to off and i cant. Ive tried restarting and taking the battery out and nothing helps. I got my wifi to turn off, and after a few hours without trying to get on wifi i tried connecting and its back to what it has been doing, like in a stuck position. I got it to go off by turning the phone off completly for a few hours. Any help is well appreciated. Thank you in advance. I tried attaching a picture to better explain this, but for some reason I cant even attach a file.
What rom are you on?

I've been having weird WiFi issues recently too. I'm stock. I disabled the ATT Smart WiFi but that doesn't seem to fix things. Tried one of the WiFi applications to reconnect when it detects the failure but that works only about 99% of the time.

My wifi doesnt even connect now, it shows that its trying to connect but it wont. The wifi icon doesnt go to full green, it stays on a transparent green, like it wants to connect but wont.
If it was me I'd flash the stock from and get it back to the way it used to be. But if you're on stock now and haven't done any flashing its going to take a lot of learning on your part. You are going to have to learn to use odin and where to get the stock rom. Not sure if you're up for that.

If you both are on stock call ATT. They will be more then happy to help you. With your level of knowledge that is your best course of action. They will most likely tell you to factory reset your phone. You will loose all your apps and settings. Tell them you want to back that up first. They should be able to help you from there.

Guess this is what i will have to do, i just dont no if something is wrong with my phone. Thank you for your help
Hey guys,
I've been using this phone (skyrocket ROGERS version) and have had this problem ever since I "upgraded" to ICS; and I've had so many problems with this phone! I've just learned to accept that my WiFi will never work consistently enough for me to use it so I just always use my data plan (luckily I've got a lot of data).
THINGS I HAVE TRIED
Cm 10 stable
Cm 10 nightly
Cm 9 stable
Miui
Flashing stock ICS
Flashing stock Jb
Things I haven't tried
Flashing stock gingerbread (because this was the only time my WiFi worked consistently, but why go back to gingerbread)
If anybody has ANY insight on this it would be very helpful
I guess I should also mention that I've flashed everyone of these ROMs that I listed at least 3-5 times just to ensure it wasn't just a bad flash.
