it works across all networks in Canada/USA, it shows you if you are in your home network or not
but in WIND it does even a step further they incorporated a quick menu to check your usage, and refill your account as in some other european & south america countries

A lot of the ones in the wiki/faq for other Galaxy S type phones work. I haven't ran through them all to test, though.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=Samsung_Galaxy_S_Series#Secret_Codes

there are many of the codes for SGS that doesn't work on the SNS
i've not tried them all yet, just too many
i've only tried a few that i frequently used on the SGS

Does the one on the first post allow me to check the color, eg for dead pixels, I know *#0*# is for most Samsung, does this work for the sns, I'm about to buy one so I need to check it.
Thanks

HI,
I got a Nexus S and it is on the same Baseband and kernel version. These commands dont work!!
Also strange thing is, I am unable to calls or send SMSs and the GSM service says its Out of Service. BUT GPRS services work and I am able to browse the internet. I have absolutely no idea how this is possible.
ANy suggestions? My guess is the Service Domain in the Service mode is set to CS only. Need to change this to CS+PS. Since the USSD command (*#0011#) doesnt work, not sure what to do.
Please suggest.

hey suggest me sum apps for my tab

I might suggest looking in the Google play store under apps for tablets.

its very hard to suggest apps for someone. You dont know what they use their device for, what they are into or if they plan to root or not. Jusst browse the apps for tablets and see what interests you and go from there.

try any of these https://play.google.com/store/search?q=grammar

CHAOS RINGS II not supported?

Why can the Nexus 7 be able to download, but TF700T cannot?

Click to expand...

Its probably the screen resolution which isnt supported and Google play is blockinge the download as the device being incompatible. Go to the actual Google play website and look up the game. When you are logged in it will say on the left side which android devices you own are compatible but won't say why for any that are not. For that you have to test your luck contacting the developer for an answer.

Because the nexus 7 has a crap 1280x800 resolution, and the tf700 is full-hd 1920x1200.
Either email the dev (pointless if ea or ubisoft/gameloft), sideload it or use an 'alternative' method.

Send email to both Sqe and left message on Facebook, no reply, also contacted ASUS, same.
Side load?
You mean, save it on titanium on my Galaxy S3, then load it into my TF700T?

OK, Save back up through Titanium, upload to drop box, download and install through titanium, and download game file. that works, and it plays fine, so Not sure why SQE isn't allowing it on the TF700T

How to block a phone

my younger brother wants to get an android phone. i want to make sure he cant use it for bad things (e.g pornogaphy or similar things) is there any app i can use to block certain things from showing, in all apps he might install? or at least a way to have all internet history sent to my computer so i can see whats being done?
would a keylogger be enough?

When he go to toilet or bathroom.... You can check mobile and find what he's doing with it...... You can use screen recorder.... Or if he is deleting history etc... Then tell him that if he delete the history from browser, Phone may brick... Ok
But in my opinion you should understand this he will learn everything whether someone teach him or not... Its natural process... Hope don't mind.....

I know you have concerns but there is an awesome method. Its called "trust".
Get him a phone and tell him you're trusting him not to see and check out inappropriate things. (Add a bit of fibs here, like... If you do this, your phone can break. Its a virus and what not).
Also I think this is normal, its normal for a boy to girl to see this kind of things. Whether they're young or old, it'll happen and you can't stop it. You can slow it. But I wouldn't go there. People grow and they mature, and I'm sure he's not uneducated about electronics. You'll learn easily.
And hey, the internet is there, he can look for answers. Well anyways, a best of luck.

Samsung gear manager and Samsung accessory service for phones that can't install

Some phones can't install Samsung gear and Samsung accessory services from play store. The one plus 2 is one of those device.
Here is the two files needed.
Install gear and services and your good to pair. I hope Samsung makes this work with every phone.
Here are the updated APK's (as of this morning): 10/26
Gear Manager

Hi, Where did you get these files from?

Nexus 6 and Google play. Copied the apk

Oh cool. I've just sent you a message

Samsung Pay
Does anyone when our what's up with samsung pay app for the gear s2 is it out yet my watch says no payment app installed in the tap and pay section

Same issue!!
Same problem here. I tried to use the tap-n-pay at a location where I normally use my Samsung Pay on my Galaxy S6 Edge, and nothing happened. On my Gear S2 watch I went into Settings/Connections/NFC, then scroll down to Tap and Pay - and I get a screen which says, "Tap and pay (then shows sketch of tap n pay) No installed payment apps"
And unfortunately there is no Samsung Pay app in the Gear app store. So upset about this.

Not for me. If the screen is on the always on clock then I get notifications. If its on the black only screen I get nothing. This isnt working like it should. Ive tired everything. Ive turned on always on mode and then turned of wrist gestures and the always on clock will only stay on for about an hour and then it will just be a black screen and Ill get nothing. With always on set to on and wrist gestures to on I will only get notification if the screen just turned off or always on clock showing.

Are you using the Oneplus 2?
