I installed AirDroid on my PC and for some reason my Galaxy S4 does not recognize the QR Code while my HTC Desire does.
I also installed QRDroid but that did not help among other QR scan apps.
Also, even my Motorola DEFY phone picked up the QR code without any issues.
What can be the issue?
There is no error messages nothing like that, it just not able to react or connect.
What settings on the phone should I worth checking.
I know Wifi was enabled and that functions fine.
See attached.
Thanks

hi
i have purchased samsung galaxy s gt-i9000
but i have a small & big problem at the same time
when i dial *100# to know my account balance it says "ussd code running" then
nothing happens and the phone progrm closes and return to the home screen
before that it was running good and now so i did a hard reset
and it works for 1 day and now it doesnt work
sorry for my bad english
someone just posted a 'fix' for this, dont know about the problem but it might help you:
'There is known bug/problem in Galaxy S that USSD code stops working after some time. I faced this problem for many days and was unable to use some GSM services like balance checking etc. I did not find any solution for it on internet.
Luckily, I was able to pin point the cause which was creating the USSD problem and just want it to share so that your time can be saved.
I observed the mobile tracker is causing the problem. As soon as I turn it off USSD works fine. When the mobile tracker is On then USSD is screwed up again. I am sure there may be other apps which can cause similar problems ... please share if u find any.'

Hey all,
Ok, so here's the setup:
Bought a (supposedly) unlocked Samsung Focus from Expansys (AT&T Branded).
Don't have a SIM for Rogers yet, so just using it on my home wireless network. I can surf the web, access the marketplace, my XBOX Live account is linked up (my avatar is displayed), etc. All good.
UNTIL...I actually want to purchase or download an app/game from the marketplace! After I click Install, I get this message:
"This item is not available from the Marketplace catalog."
This happens for *every* application, paid or free. The only way I can get apps on to my phone is to get them through the Zune software and synch, and even then I have to go through the marketplace to the app where it tells me that its already installed (even though it shows up NOWHERE on my phone), and asks if I want to install it again...which it then lets me do and voila, app is visible.
This is *really* frustrating and I can't figure out what the issue could be. Any thoughts or has anyone else experienced this?!
Thanks,
DL
I just got my Focus today and I've got the EXACT same problem. I don't have it unlocked yet, so the only thing that is the same between our two cases is that we don't have a valid sim card.
Can anyone confirm this issue?
Issue Fixed...well more Issue Disappeared
My issue went away...literally...I don't really know what I did, or that I did anything. I blogged about it here (I'm still too new to post full url's here, so its broken up): geekswithblogs .net /dlussier /archive /2010/11/23/142839.aspx, but here's the update part:
So last night I plugged my phone into my pc to charge, which brought up the Zune software. I wanted a few more apps, so I downloaded them from there. Phone synched, and I went to try my apps. I thought “What the hell”, and tried to access an app on the marketplace. This time I didn’t get the “This item is not available from the Marketplace catalogue”, I got some message about an error and a hex value.
I tried to access an app again to see if I’d still get the error message and…*POOF*…I have full access to the marketplace over wi-fi!
I have *no* idea what caused the switch, it was nothing that I did intentionally! I did notice that the prices are now higher (BeJeweled was 4.99, now 5.49), and I’m assuming its because I’m hitting the Canadian marketplace and not the US one.
Weird, yes, but its working so…yay?
lol the EXACT same thing happened to me...it just....went away? lol I'm not complaining
Not exactly sure what happened, but today my internet stopped working on my vogue 6900. I have metro PCS. Everytime I try to log onto the internet it keeps asking for my password. I have tried the 000000, and that is not working, neither is mymetropcs. I have the unlocker de coder and it is set for 000000. I tried my hex# and my dec# and my serial number. None of those work. Is anyone else having this issue too? Also tried mymetropcs and also left blank, none of these worked
I tried reinstalling the metro cab and resetting my name and password with the abouve--- did not fix it. Can anyone help w/ this?
Thanks in advance
No one else is having this issue?
I am using nsfans rom w/ win 6.5 vogue 6900 if that helps any
was working beautiful until the other day.
I did notice that my unlocker came up out of the blue one day, I thought I had enabled it somehow. Looks like metro might have done it?
Sorry for not answering your pm.
Metro will try to crack down on internet usage from time to time. Particularly if your device was placed in their network via other ways aside from MetroFLASH.
Try to see if there is a newer PRL (although 2001 and 2004 have not been updated in forever). Also, make sure that your proxies didn't change. I have seen this happen before. Check them in Start>Settings>Connections.. (forgot the rest, sorry )
The one thing I did not understand is what do you mean that the "unlocker came up?" Are you talking about CoKeMaN's unlocker? or what?

I had the phone flashed by a corporate metro store and pay for internet
I have tried to reset all the settings in start, settings, connections. It will not save any of the settings
I can get into the epst settings and have checked all the settings in there.
Right now I have another problem too. My pc will not recognise the PDA. I have the right version of sync center, but every time I plug into it, it never recognises the vogue. The phone recognises that it is plugged in, but I am getting an error code and can not find any info on the error code
0x80004005
Also in the epst settings I cant change the setting for PRL capability preferred, it is set at disable. When I click on edit it wont allow me to change the setting. Should this be set at enable or disable?
Do you know the number to dial from the phone to update the PRL?
I got a letter from at&t saying they have detected me tethering my focus to a laptop, and if I don't stop they will upgrade my account and charge me for tethering, anyone else get a similar letter?
Also, if I use internet sharing on the focus s, will they charge?
Thanks for your help.
Yikes, I have not gotten this letter but I only occasionally tether on my tilt 2. I just got my focus s - and i can't turn on 'internet sharing' unless I have the right plan from AT&T - does anyone have a way around this (yet)?
thx

You can turn on wifi tethering with the info HERE but I think at&t might send you a letter if you use it too much...
Has anyone tried the above 'wifi tethering' fix to the new " Focus S " ?
thx
Greg

I did it more foir the interop unlock but the tethering was an extra bonus. I dont tether much at all but I did test it out and it worked fine.
@rcf686 - did you have to do anything other then set your HOST file to not-readonly (for the unlocking step I mean)? I"m having a problem with the ChevronWP7 UNLOCK program saying it can not connect? I've even installed the WPConnect.exe and, although that runs ok, still ChevronWP7 says: "Sorry, having problems communicating with phone...."
Since you have the same phone i'm wondering what you did different? thx!
Greg
I didn't do anything different. My laptop and iPad just connected like any other WiFi hot spot. I have seemed to notice the last day or so some strangeness in my WiFi. I find I have to turn off my WiFi or data to get to the marketplace. I never had to do that before I ran the interop unlock file.
I have both the Moto E4/E4 Plus on Sprint. Both phones do not stream many music stations in TuneIn and XiiaLive apps, it kept saying network unreachable(not all stations but many), also I use an app called Webcam Viewer Pro to monitor my webcams from home, this does not work at all, same network unreachable error when I open up the app, The weird thing is if I connect my phone to wifi network, all would work fine. I also tried to put in my FreedomPop ATT LTE sim in, that works fine as well. So it does look like I have this problem only when I put in the Sprint sim in these phones(e4/e4 +). Does anyone have seen this problem if you have this phone? Or if someone has this phone, would you mind to go to the Play store to install these apps and try to see if you can duplicate this issues? I have contacted Sprint to no avail. They kept telling me to contact the app developer for this, since other stuff just working fine, they refused to go any further troubleshooting for me, even though I i told them i dont have this issues if i switch to wifi or another carrier's sim.
