    • Hi, if you forgot Samsung account password, then you can try to reset password using https://account.samsung.com/account/check.do from Samsung website. We suggest to use computer browser for easy view and navigation. However, if you have paying service, usually you have special line to get help, please use that line to fix this trouble. The other alternative you still can try to access one by one email account like Gmail or Yahoo that you have without use your phone.

  • Hello,

    I have tab2 with a very stubborn virus on it. I've done hard format several times but every time I resatrt it the virus is still there waiting to open the wifi so that it activates itself and takes control over my tab again. The virus can control everything on my tab. I went to a mobile shop and he told me that he can fix it for me by doing a different kind of formatting. Actually I would like to do it myself, so any idea on how to do it?

    Thanks in advance

    Best
