samsung fascinate

My fascinate is deactivated and stuck at android 2.1 when I go to update it says it has to connect to 3g which I don't have or plan on getting. Is there a manual way to update?

Hi all, I received a Samsung Galaxy S Fascinate 4G(SGH-T959P) unlocked from Telus last week for my birthday. I am fairly new to Android, but love technology, and would really like to root my phone to be rid of all the bloatware on it. The problem is, this model of phone is old, (the phone...

Whats really happening when an app operates perfectly on one Android handset and not another? Hardware differences? A data off/on switch on a Samsung Fascinate is like creating cold fusion. Does anyone have an app working for this?

I got my phone last August and never really bothered updating the firmware...yesterday I updated it to 2.3.4 and now it won't connect to my router when I'm sitting in the next room. Also, my menu option when I hold the power button to turn on/off 4g is gone (and it isn't connecting to 4g at...
