    • Hi, there are some situations when our Samsung Galaxy Duos can not see anything from display. If you still can see the Samsung logo after booting or soft reset, than you still can erase anything with hardware button key reset. But if your display does not show anything or totally off although the phone already turning on, then maybe some problem happen with the LCD and we are afraid nothing can be do with this situations. Usually if you are not sure how the repair shop will do with our phone, we are recommended you to change all password at your online media, like FB, Gmail, and something like that.

    • Hi, to restore or unlock forgotten security lock pattern, we need to use Internet connection at our Android, because Samsung Galaxy Pocket need to make sure the username and password that typed correct. If you can not access with Internet, you can try to use other simcard provider which already Internet package available. Usually your phone factory setting already have local network APN provider. If still can not access Google account with Internet data, then you need to do hard reset or master format with hardware button.

    • Hi, we need to find out more about this problem. Please try to use some free 3th party vibration test applications download from Google Play Store. If your phone still can not vibrate, then you should try to consider do hard reset. Please do not forget to backup all important data because hard reset will remove or wipe all important data at your Samsung Galaxy Y Duos Lite.

      After doing hard reset, you can try to test your vibration function again, weather use native applications like phone vibration or use the 3th party applications again from Google Play Store. If you phone still can not vibrate, then we suspect the vibration component inside your Samsung Galaxy Y Duos Lite is damage, this is also normally happen at some other smartphone and can be easily repair by replace the new vibrate component from nearest Samsung authorize service center.

  18. Hi. I am using samsung galaxy pocket neo GT-S5312. The only problem I am facing is that my phone always lags in between using apps whenever the mobile data is on although i have only few apps installed. Is there a way so that my phone can be boost up and can do multitasking easily because my sister is having samsung galaxy music duos and it works very fast.

    Reply
    • Hi, although this article talk about different phone, but we will try to help. Basically the specification of your Samsung Galaxy Pocket NEO GT-S5312 is enough for doing standard activity like email, chatting, browsing, listen to the music, social media like Facebook, Instagram and something like that. But we need to know, doing all standard activity still need some memory to load the applications, and the Samsung Galaxy Pocket only have 512MB RAM, therefore you will get some slow or lag time when access between each applications. While the phone need more RAM, then it will try to find one or more application to close by system to free the memory RAM, so it can running the last application that you choose. About your syster’s Samsung Galaxy Music Duos that run more smooth than your Samsung Galaxy Pocket, maybe the multitasking is not as many as your phone, the running application in the background is different. So you can try to do hard reset and use your phone again with standard application, hopefully it should run more faster than before.

    • Hi, you should make sure the internal memory card contain operating system storage and data storage partitions at your Samsung Galaxy Pocket, you see at PC or computer have 1 GB free space but that location at data partitions. Because computer by default can not read system partitions at your Android phone. However, the internal memory system storage can be full because of applications caches or temporary files. Please try to remove cache from Menu Setting > Applications, choose some applications that usually save more cache like Facebook or Twitter or Whatsapp or LINE or something like that, after choose the applications, you can Clear Data. Then see your internal memory will be get more free space. The other alternative that you can do is doing hard reset, so all cache will be removed and only factory default applications run in the beginning, but of course you have to backup all important data before doing hard reset.

Otherwise, your ODIN can not connect to your phone after turn to Download Mode.

    • 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.

    • 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, make sure you can read your microSD card from your Samsung Galaxy Pocket using file manager. When you connect this phone to computer PC, there are some options that show at your Samsung Galaxy Pocket LCD screen to mount the phone memory into your computer. Please press that button, after several time you computer will find your microSD card as new removable drive. At some computer, you need to connect the computer to Internet when it need to update the driver for Samsung Galaxy Pocket.

If you are sure your simcard already have Internet data subscriptions, than you should make sure the APN already correct.

    • 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.

  31. 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”

    • 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.

    • Hi, have you ever perform root or install the custom rom at your Samsung Galaxy Pocket? Basically the file source of factory default Android operating system already saved safely inside your Sony Galaxy Pocket ROM. This files can not access with standard procedure, unless you done some root or custom rom installation. If you are not sure about what happen, then you need to ask help for checking your phone by bring to Samsung service center.

    • Hi, sometime hard reset can not perform well, especially if your phone ever got some tweak with root or custom rom. However, what you can try is retry doing hard reset or master format using hardware button maybe it can solve the problem. If you still get the same problem, then you need to bring to Samsung service center for further help.

        • Hi, please follow the steps at #Option 1 if you still can go to software menu. If your Samsung Galaxy Pocket Duos can not start-up or the operating system damage, then you can try to do hard reset using hardware button at steps at #Option 2 above.

  35. Recently my S5302 had a problem of inability to ‘power on’ then according the instructions above I have ‘hard reset’ the device. Now my mobile is unable to produce any sort of sounds or vibrations. What could I do now to get back the original glory of my mobile. It would be a big help for me to suggest the way to rectify my device problem …

    • Hi, basically after doing hard reset or reformat your Samsung Galaxy Pocket, all functions should be work normally again, because most problems comes from the installed applications or operating system damage. Please try doing hard reset again one more time using software menu, please note, there is no different result between hard reset using hardware button or software menu. After finish doing hard reset, please try all your phone function like sound and vibration before sign in to Google account. If that functions still not active, then you should bring your Samsung Galaxy Pocket to Samsung authorize service center to check hardware problems.

    • Hi, we are assume that you already finish doing hard reset using software menu. If the phone is not responding, you should try to do hard reset using hardware button like steps at #Option 2 above. However, you said that you can go to emergency call button, means you Samsung Galaxy Pocket still can boot normally but can not response with some finger touch. Please try doing hard reset with hardware button, if the problem still happen, then probably your LCD get hardware problems and need to get further check to Samsung authorize service center.

    • Hi, as we know that Samsung Galaxy Pocket only have limitted internal memory to save all installed data and applications.But base from what you wrote that the free internal memory space is still 1.81GB available then we think the internal memory free size already fit to do anything from your phone, however we also does not understand which the available space 0.00MB that has already insufficient. You may try to delete some applications cache like Facebook, BBM, Twitter and something like that which can not more data to external memory. Go to Setting > Apps > Downloaded to find which big installed application then press Clear data button, by doing this you will reduce the internal memory usage space but you need to relogin again later to that applications. After clean some data, then try to see your total space again at your Samsung Galaxy Pocket.

      The other options if you need to copy images or data from your phone, please connect your Samsung Galaxy Pocket to computer using USB cable, then you would see your important data like photo and movie at DCIM folder.

  38. I USE #option2 IT WAS SUCCESSFULLY done but the language is differently unlike before i use the following step

    Reply
    • Hi, you can try to change the language from menu setting. If you can not understand about the current language then you can try to see the icon. The icon setting is usually like tools or gear. If you can go to menu setting, find icon with keyboard or font, then you can choose the new language at this menu.

    • Hi, you can try to unlock forgotten security screen lock pattern by give several time wrong answer continuously until your phone freeze about 30 seconds. After that you will find Forgot Pattern button to press, after that you will need to give your Google Gmail username and password that you have already signed in before at this phone. Please make sure your Internet is active while do that steps. If you can not access Google account, than you have to do hard reset with hardware button combination key at #Option 2 above.

  39. My samsung gt-s5300 volume up is broken and i can’t do the hard reset buttons. What am i supposed to do?? My phone is locked and i can’t seem to open it.

    Reply
    • Hi, we strongly advice you to fix the broken hardware button. However, if you still can go to normal booting and can access the setting menu inside your phone, then you still can do hard reset with software menu Factory data reset. But your Samsung Galaxy Pocket problem with locked security still can try to unlock using Google account that you have already signed in before. Please try to give several time wrong answer continuously until your phone freeze about 30 seconds and you can find Forgot Password / Pattern button to unlock or bypass using Google account.

    • Hi, unfortunately we are not recommended to do unofficial custom rom for your Samsung Galaxy phone because some wrong steps can make trouble. Because the steps is non standard depend on the community, then the answer can be vary. Please ask your previous community which you follow to upgrade using their custom rom, maybe they can give good solutions.
