    • Hi, you can try to charge your Samsung Galaxy Pocket using different or other Android charger, Android charger minimum have 1A current output. This is just to make sure the battery fully charge. Basically although the battery is not full, but when your charger already working and connected to you Samsung Galaxy Pocket, then the phone should boot-up and run again. We are worry that something happen with your phone like already rooted or using custom ROM, then maybe some default hard reset could make it not work properly.

  • sir i have a big problem regarding on my samsung galaxy pocket GT-S5300. i turned my phone into download mode without enabling the usb debugging. odin always FAILS i dont know what to do ive tried many solutions now but none of them worked!

    • Hi, as far as we know, you does not need to make enable USB Debugging while going to download mode at your Samsung Galaxy Pocket. So if everything fine. After your phone at download mode then you can connect your Samsung Galaxy with Odin at your computer. But first of all before you go to download mode, just make sure your computer already have driver which can recognize your Samsung Galaxy phone. Otherwise, your ODIN can not connect to your phone after turn to Download Mode.

  • Hi in my s5302 phone my memory card is not show but it show in my laptop.what should i do?

    • Hi, it seems that your Samsung Galaxy Pocket can not read the file system type at your MicroSD card. Please try to format your microSD card from your Samsung Galaxy Pocket. Insert at memory card slot at your phone, then choose Menu Setting > Storage, Choose Erase or Format SD Card. Usually after format from your phone, then the external MicroSD memory card will be recognize by your phone with the right file system format.

    • Hi, maybe you mean the haptic feedback or vibrate response when you touch the 3 menu in the bottom of LCD screen at your Samsung Galaxy Pocket. Try to go to Menu Setting > Sound, disable the Vibrating Feedback or Vibrate on touch. If you vibrate come when typing the keyboard then please go to Menu Setting > Language & input > Keyboard and setup the menu for disable vibrate. If the vibrate problems come from others than both of it, then you may do hard reset, because some applications maybe make your Samsung Galaxy Pocket become vibrate when touch anywhere.

  • my phone screen cant open,it requires a Google acct or back up pin number which i cant remember

    • Hi, this problem happen because you or someone else has already gave the security protection like screen lock pattern or password pin protection at your Samsung Galaxy Pocket. If you can not unlock it using Google account or backup pin, then please do hard reset with hardware button like steps at #Option 2 above.

  • hi

    • Hi, some users also get similar problems when install Whatsapp from Google Play Store. Some of them also can not update the applications because not compatible issue. We thing this problem happen because Whatsapp do some minor update and it make your Samsung Galaxy Pocket can not install it again. Maybe you can try to find some old version Whatsapp that may compatible with your phone from some other community. Please find it carefully and make sure it comes from good review website.

  • When I keep my "Use packet data, Activate data network" turned on, it keeps downloading things and takes up all the money on the phone. Hence I switched it off. However now I can't use the internet. When I try to log on the net it says "No network connection
    Cannot connect to Internet. Please check your connection settings and try again"
    I’m using Samsung Galaxy y Gt-S5360 …

    • Hi, we really recommended Android user to use Internet Data package offer from your network provider, because if you use retail price for data connection, some provider will charge more expensive, but this is different for each country. However, some applications which are installed from Google Play Store will search for some update when the data connection available, with some setting it will download automatically when there are new update. Please try to use free wifi or personal wifi to download or update the latest one.

  • my samsung galaxy pocket shows that the battery is fully charged when the bettery is not completely charged. Have using different batteries including a new one and its still show that battery is fully charged though if you place it in another phone the battery is empty

    • Hi, it seems that the problem comes from your applications or software. Please try to do hard reset or reinstall the clean factory default operating system or firmware. After your phone finish doing hard reset, then you can try to test your battery again.
