Hi,
could someone help? after the unlock en rooting the phone, I dont have any wifi or 3g connection?
Please help.
And while booting with the big colourd X I have a brown lock (locked ) in my booting screen.
a brown lock thats locked? I thought it was suppose to be a silver unlocked lock.
I also have a silver, unlocked lock.
Can you explain the process you used to unlock/root your phone (in case it's something different from what we've all done) and also what carrier you intend to use the phone on?

People are saying that after rooting, using the Power Widget to start wifi and then doing something else will not connect until you go into Settings -> Wifi.
Try going into Settings -> Wifi. Does it connect that way?

what i did was pop in my sim card then the auto configuration loaded up. After that I had to restart the phone then I was good to go.
Thank you... mine doesn't seem to auto load the settings... I wonder what gives?
I actually had to call to give the my imei details then i was up and away.
it detected my settings the att guy said user/pass wasnt used anymore blanked that out but the rest of the settings were fine
you need to go to start/settings/phone/network
click on find network and that should start the auto config
Same here...
Just slid in my Sim card, turn the X1i on..
Pop show up asking to setup for AT&T...
Do you have the "Generic UK" rom??
Stuart
mine also auto configured when i first put my sim card in. i have an x1a. i found out that my internet connection wouldnt work when i powered down my phone. i had to re configure my networks settings again. now i dont power my phone down when i want to turn off my phone. i just use the communication manager to turn off the phone.
any one else notice that... that is if they power down the phone using the button, that after turning back on, the internet isnt working anymore (onboard internet or my bluetooth dun for tethering doesnt work after powering down unless i re auto configure my phone network settings).
No problem with powering my X1i down at all......
Can connect to both wap and isp access points without a problem..

did u get it working?
Yes, I finally got it to work... window mobile is still very new to me... thank you all for your input.
i Unbricked my phone using this method (http://code.google.com/p/android-roms/wiki/Unbrick), now i cant activate it because i dont see the option to skip the login to google and i cant activate my wi-fi either without it.
T-mobile want me to sign a contract for 2 years to add a G3 feature to my corrent plan.
What can i do to have the option back to skip the login to google part so i can activate my fi-wi?
Please i really need help, i been without a phone for 3 days already =(
If you just proceed with the setup it will notice that you have no phone network so it will then ask on the next screen to provide a wifi spot which is where you can log onto your router.
That wasn't a bricked phone.

My thoughts as well.
You have a couple of options:
1) Use a prepaid tmo sim w/ data, or get an unlock code and use another SIM w/ data a data plan on it (that will require the APN for that carrier)
2) Set up adb and follow this guide, it will let you choose an access point to connect to.

If you've ever installed RC29 you'll know that it wont let you connect to an AP, it will only use cellular data.
I read threads here that some tabs are locked and some are not. So how do people with locked tabs get their tabs unlocked? is it only can be done by samsung itself.
Thanks
What are you wanting to unlock it for?
Doesn't unlocking allow for rooting? From the few rooting guides I've come across, the unlocked ones can be rooted whereas the locked ones can't. For me the only thing I need to root for it to do the adhoc wpa supplicant fix.

Are you having any problem connecting to adhoc wifi? i did nothing to the tab and still i can see the adhoc wifi source and can use it.

Thats unlikely. Android in general has a problem with adhoc wifi. What device do you have or is your tab connecting to?
In my case i have a Treo Pro with wmwifirouter and since my Tab does not see theadhoc network it creates, i use bluetooth tethering instead.
Believe me its working with iphone i have used outside of home maybe tab is compatible with iphone? I haven't tried the bluetooth tethering i will check that now and will post you.
You can still root with a locked boot loader... See here
thanks for the info but my first question is still open that how to unlock tab if it is locked
But why are you wanting it unlocked? As far as I know there isn't a way

WiFi tether works fine with my iPhone as well.

Are you using the built-in iPhone wifi tethering feature or a jailbroken tethering app?
jailbroken iPhone, app name is mywi
Locked bootloader
Near as I can tell, only Samsung has the encryption keys to allow unlocking the bootloader. It doesn't seem to be necessary though, I got my locked tablet rooted so, I wouldn't worry too much about it.
kevin i wanted to know just because the first tab i got was locked the replacement i got is unlocked so i just want to make sure it is not a returned item. I thought someone own it before and unlock it and sent back to bb or samsung for some reason. It's good to know that there is no way someone can unlock it and in that case the one i have is new.
Hi, I remember seeing a great feature during the S4 presentations. I have my phone passcode locked all the time. This feature allowed the phone to detect your home WiFi network and when it's detected, it turns off the passcode so you don't have it on at home. It will then put the passcode lock back on as soon as you leave the set WiFi network. I've searched everywhere through the phone and can't find where to do enable this feature.
Please help anyone?
Unfortunately it doesn't seem to have made it into the shipped device, or the manual. Maybe it'll arrive as an update?

Or something you can set up using Tasker?
Llama will support this as well.
Hello XDA, I'm curious if there is a way in either the standard ROM (Which would be Sprint to use with Ting) or a custom ROM to be able to turn off the WiFi and lock it to make it kid friendly? Ting allows data control from their end so it's no problem there, just curious if there is a way to put a PIN on the ability to turn WiFi on and off. Thanks!
AppLocker?

How about locking the Settings app by AppLocker or similar apps after forgetting the WiFi network in the phone?

That could be an option, thanks! I'd like for them to still able to adjust settings on the phone but that seems like the only solution that makes sense so far. Other than just deleting the wifi driver itself.
