I have searched around and I couldn't find anyone that has mentioned this before. If you really want the JI6 and don't want to use Kies and when you hit the "software update button" it shows "no firmware" I found a way to force it.
*****JI6 bricks a lot of phones. rooted or unrooted... so be careful! I would unroot and remove any lagfixes just to be safe. If you're phone gets bricked it is not because of this method. it is because JI6 has issues. if you do get bricked... check out this thread: forum.xda-developers [dot] com/showthread.php?p=8522603#post8522603****
**DUMMY PROOF INSTRUCTIONS!**
If you already have launcher pro:
1) goto your homescreen.
2) menu key, add.
3) hit shortcuts and then activities.
4) scroll down to device management
5) select "com.wssyncmldm.wssAppDmUiMain" and hit ok
6) this will put a shortcut on your homescreen that will say device management with blue and red arrows.
7) open that shortcut up and hit software update.
if you don't have launcher pro or don't know what it is.
1) goto the market.
2) search "Launcher Pro" or "Federico Carnales"
3) look for a yellow icon with a house on it.
4) install that.
5) once installed hit your homekey. select launcherpro but don't select use as default until you fall in love with launcherpro ;]
6) then, follow the steps above
Wao...thanks
Wating for froyo now

Is this for all countries or just the current?
I'm pretty sure its just for the states.
however i was messing around in the settings of that shortcut... and it apears that you can mess with the DM server connection settings and you can mess with a bunch of stuff... so maybe if you change the APN to whatever carrier you are using it would work??
Try it. follow my steps above. goto settings then DM connection settings and edit the network profile apn settings.

This might lead to other cool stuff down the road as well... there are some really cool settings in that shortcut. you can change it to "lab" and "production" profile... so maybe we can get a leaked froyo a little early??

What's launcher pro? I have the American Vibrant but I am using in Germany. Would it work?
This worked for me. Good post. Downloaded Launcher Pro from the market (Free), and then followed these directions. Immediately my 3G arrows were working overtime, and withing 3min I had the OTA available message.

the wssappdmuimain is the first shortcut. Just select it and say ok. It should place a shortcut on your home screen that says device management with a blue and red arrow. Then open that shortcut and hit software update.

Followed intructions to the T. I would suggest doing it over WIFI.
I click on the shortcut and received the update in less than 2 mins.
Installation over WIFI took 4 mins. Hung at the S screen for 3 mins.
Kept all setting and apps, everything works. GPS locked onto 8 out of 12 sats in less than 10 seconds.
3g signal is increased, wifi signal seems to be increased as well..

The list is alphabetical... so... yeah. right under Daily briefing and DataCreate...
are you in the launcherpro activities list?
Well didnt work for me . I hit software update... the same arrow appear on the top of my phone but they disappeared like in 3 secs! Nothing happened afterwards.
As I have said, does anyone has idea if this would work being overseas? I have the American version, because I bought in NY on Craiglist... But right now I am in Germany.

Try this. homescreen > menu key > settings > wireless and network > mobile networks > access point names
What does it say? whatever is selected and if your data is working... write down that APN.
THEN. if you still have the device management shortcut on your homescreen. go into that. select settings then network profile then for the APN change it to whatever you are currently using for your german carrier.
let me know if this works. if it does not and you need to revert the settings the tmobile apn is: epc.tmobile.com

I tried this on two Arias running 2.2 and it worked, but it disabled the HTC Wallpaper section options (the select screen comes up but there are no wsllpapers shown) and the MMS send/receive also doesn't work. As hard reset fixed these issues but also removed the "unknown sources" option.
I can load wsllpapers via the live wallpapers and gallery options, but I can't fix the MMS issue.

I'm glad I waited for more replies.
as long as I can download the .apk, its really not that big of a deal to me anyway. Just have to connect phone to pc, find the file, drag it to my computer and then install it with android injector. This works for amazon apps and any app I have download from here.
If u rooted ur phone you would not need this and rooted phones have been able to do this for quit sometime now. Duh!

What .apk are you talking about? There is no .apk you download to unlock this option. You have to clear the data of two specific system apps to do this.

I THINK that he's talking about root not being that big of a deal as long as he can sideload...I'm pretty sure. Over a long time of being on forums, I have learned to read and understand the most incomprehensible of verbiage.
sorry, i was generalizing. basically if you can download the app, even if you cant install it from your phone, there is a simple method to get it installed when you get to your computer.
edit: yes, I was talking about how easy it is to sideload. just my opinion. easier to do than possibly lose mms options with this method to get the unknown sources checkbox.
just going to wait for the actual update. which better come soon. as it was supposed to be out before this thread even started.

The update was out before this thread started but only some (very few) people got it. So if someone can't wait for it, since it seems like no one else is going to get it, and they can afford to lose the mms setting (which could be reset manually), then they can do this method.
The symptom is, each time I switch on my tablet, I receive a notification in lower right corner promoting something like lucky draw, game, etc. If I click on the notification, it automatically starts downloading apk. The apk is always named like yyyymmddxxxxxxxxxxx.apk. I never run those apks, I guess they are not friendly. How can I check which app I installed is doing this?

First check what you have installed recently. Could be one of those apps give spam notifications. I saw something similar on my bro-in-law phone and that was because he installed some kind of "enhancement" program to make his phone run more efficient (it didn't help bytheway).
Also, since you didn't say what OS you're running, 4.0+ has the option to disable notifications when you go to settings>applications>app name. If you find its an app you need, then that might help.
If you thinks its beyond this, then install lookout or norton from the market.
It's not malware, they're called push notification ads. Just download "Ad Blocker" (root required) from the market and it will tell you which app(s) is doing this. You can also choose to delete it from within the app.
Pretty handy.

I don't have it now, I will load it when I get it next time.
However I have the list of apps I installed because I sent it to the author of push detector. How can I send it to you? I just don't want to post it here.
I have another finding, which seems odd to me: I set the home page of chrome to be blank, and I double checked that, but each time I open the browser it always opens a search page with a lot of informations (looks like a portal but I don't like it). How can I know which app replaces my home page with such rubish?
Is it possible the 3G provider does this kind of things? (notification ads and home replacement)?

No, your network provider would have nothing to do with push notification ads or homepage replacement. And as for setting your homepage in Google chrome, are you talking about the desktop version? Because I don't believe you can make that selection on the mobile version, unless I'm missing something?
BTW, you can send that list to me in a PM if you'd like.

Whenever I've clicked on a phone number to call via Google Maps, it would always show up that defaulted apps and ask me what i wanted to use.
Everytime it pops up, i keep clicking "Always" for the default dialer. I thought it would set it as default, but when i had to look up a business to call their place, that "Default Apps" keep popping up. Is this in any way connected to Samsung Hubs like how screen Rotations was related to samsung hubs removal?
Is there a way to fix this? I don't want to have to click it again while driving.

I tried it myself and it went right to the dialer without a pop up. What apps is it asking you to choose from? More of a work around than a fix, but... If you do not use the other apps, can you delete them? That way you shouldn't see the pop up?

There were two, one a dialer and the other one is the Lookout. The one with the Lookout always ask to scan before dialing out. Don't get why it keep asking that.

Well. You are probably aware, but lookout is your security/antivirus app, so it makes sense that it scans.

That not the problem. What i meant is that the default doesn't work. It always ask, even when i select "Always use as Default". I had assumed that from that, it'll always use the apps i selected as a default, but for some reasons, it isn't working.

I installed Lookout and was able to reproduce your experience. That might be the way lookout works. As a security app, it gives you the chance to scan everything before executing. OR It could just be a bug.
One thing is for sure... Lookout is the cause of your grief. You can play around with the Lookout settings, but in the end, you may have to choose what is more important to you.

Anyone else having trouble with Google Voice Search crashing the system and causing it to reboot?

When I toggle it back on, it causes the system to crash and the phone reboots.

Yep, sure did.

It is strange? It's been fine all day today using Launcher3.
Ive tried running the phone in safe mode and all is fine, but using a third party launcher seems to break Voice Search within an hour or so after rebooting.
I can live with the inbuilt launcher for now. Maybe on the next firmware update it will fix the issue?
