I am attempting to root a samsung intercept on the platinumtel carrier. It is running android 2.3.3. I have tried Superoneclick and interceptrook.apk, but have had no luck. With superoneclick it always gets stuck "waiting for device" on step 5. Interceptroot.apk will not go past the point...

So I semi-bricked my phone and I cant unbrick because I flashes a wrong OTA ROM from another phone. The screen doesn't work and it only starts to boot if the charger is connected and you can "hear" it boot but can't see the screen. I remember years ago when I changed an old HTC touch and I...

First off all sorry if this has been answered already. I've been breaking my head trying to solve this. Ohka, so my sister wanted me to root her phone and Flash to another ROM so that her phone wouldn't have as many problems as the stock rom has. So for some reason I tried upgrading rather...

I have read the threads concerning connecting to my PC through USB. That is no problem. However, when I drowse the directory and click on the DCIM directory I see the 14 jpg files that are listed. However, it will not let me view/move/copy them, either one at a time or as a group. The pc comes...

Hi, I have an intercept with Sprint. I just bought an android tablet (acer a500) and am looking to tether my intercept for a mobile internet connection. I have seen some older posts on this site, but wanted to see if users knew of different versions or easier ways to accomplish this now. I...

I have spent an entire Sunday afternoon trying to root my wife's Intercept. I rooted my EVO 4G back in January and I swear to you it was a cake walk compared to this thing! After following the 'recommended' process from a couple different sites and authors, I simply cannot get anything to...

I know there are a lot of posts on this and I've googled the crap out of all this and I havent actually found something to work. I've been getting the notification to update my phone. I kept getting triangle and exclamation point and i finally realized the update is failing because my phone is...

How do I remove the the root in my Samsung Intercept? I have Virgin Mobile. Also, is there any way maybe I can entirely wipe the android and install software again? Any help would be appreciated. :)

Yesterday I was prompted to download an update for the intercept. Of course, since I'm rooted with slapkernel it failed, but does anybody know anything about this? Was it some kind of fluke? I'll be getting a new phone in 3 months anyway, but I am curious. I thought I heard someone mention...

Hi, forgive me if this isn't the right section for this. I've had my Samsung Intercept for about a year and a half now, and I've never really had any problems up until about a month or two ago. I can't recall doing anything to the settings, but one day the built-in visual voicemail stopped...

I recently inherited my older brother's phone. Like the fool he is, he tried putting on a custom ROM a week before I got it. It went fine, but the THE DAY HE GAVE IT TO ME, he screwed something up. I have no idea what he did. I can't use the phone at all, it just flashes the logo "b ROM 1.3"...

How do I select a custom ringtone for a contact? Does it need to be placed in a certain place on the phone for it to show up on the ringtone screen?

My wifes Intercept just got an update for Gingerbread, didnt think it was gonna get GB. Anyone else get it? UPDATE! I had a mind blank, its the Samsung Replenish, not the Intercept. My bad!

Is there a way to set my phone so that it sends all incoming calls directly to voicemail without ringing first? In other words, turn off the phone part without actually shutting down the entire device? Will airplane mode do this?

Trying to flash UD 6.0 but after wiping data, cache, and dalvik, then flashing zip file, it's stuck in bootloop. Recovery to backup does nothing. Help please!
