If you are on android 2.1 download an apk (app) from google called z4root, open it on your phone and click on root.
If you are using android 2.2 download a program on your computer called superoneclick root, turn USB debugging on (on your phone), connect your USB and click on root.

It might help to start here and learn a little about your device http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=26056924

If you have the at&t boot animation, you must be on stock rom? Take it in to at&t and see if they can recover

If you're going to have a prayer of getting pictures and contacts off your phone you're going to have to become a techie. If you can boot into recovery you might be able to use adb to pull the files off. Yea, techie stuff but that's your only hope.

If you can't be bothered to learn you're in the wrong place.

[Q] - Help needed

First of all hi!
I have Samsung Galaxy Pocket (GT-s5300) and I have a bit problem with updating.
So my device says you have a new update:
When I press confirm it starts to load:
But then this appears:
I've tried to change region but no use:
Any help or at least response would be great.

Maybe your area 'Eastern Europe' is not affected by this update for now.
Did you try with your network connection?

This doesn't mean that there is an Update available for your Device, Samsung just wants you to register to inform you if there is any.
If Kies says that you have the latest firmware, thats the case.
But it's still strange that you can't register. Is your device rooted or in any other way modified?

Only rooted. Not modified or anything.

This might be the reason why you can't register.
But, as I already said, there seems to be no update available for your device. If you want a new Android OS, install a custom ROM on your phone. I suppose for an update by Samsung you can wait forever

Perhaps you have downloaded a rom of different region or unspecified language, isn't it? Just check again the sources from where you downloaded your rom

Of course there would be a way to change it.
Try going to recovery and wipe cache and data.
If that doesnt help then go to the thread of your Rom ask someone to tell you what number is the language and input option in your settings menu.
Navigate to it and then you may be able to change the language

You cant update your phone to ics ? I dont understand what you are saying
It would be better if you move from gb to ics.
If it fails or something you should follow up on it, in that thread, ask the OP there.

Hi there, rather new to all this. Just wondering how i go about flashing the unit with this file? I have ever flashed a phone before (although I think i understand the basics having done it on PC/laptops a few times) Sorry for my ignorance, but im new to all of this.
The reason i need it is i have a customers S4 that no longer displays the keyboard at the initial lock screen and therefore nothing can be put in the passcode field.
Edit: Although reading one of the above comments "it would be awesome if we can get it working with stock recovery." I'm guessing this is not going to work for this case?

You can flash a custom recovery and after you finish your job, you can flash the stock recovery again without losing any data

Does this even work with an encrypted device? If so, what would be the point of encrypting my phone if it can be so easily removed?
nvm. I tested it myself and it does not work on an encrypted device.

@RubbaBand OMG! thank you soo much it worked perfectly on AOSP 5.1 Rom. You saved my time thanks a lot

You're the best sir!
First of all sorry for bumping this thread. It is just that I can't contain myself. I was locked of my phone, I have a Galaxy Grand running Lollipop. Last night I set a pattern, I did not like the first one so I changed it but when I rebooted it won't accept any of the 2 patterns I've set. I was losing hope and was about to face the dreadful factory reset button but then I found this and placed the file via a Guest account then flashed it in recovery. All of a sudden BOOOOOOM I rebooted and the pattern was gone. All thanks to you good sir! I hope I could smash the thanks button more than once. :victory:

Please does this work on a stock Rom??
