samsung fascinate

I have a friend that's selling their Samsung Galaxy S (Verizon) and I'm going to wipe it before they ship it. I've wiped the SD card and the phone from the factory reset option but it still has the phone number listed in the phone. Is that not a big deal to have it there? I can't even see how to...

Was running THS ICS on my beloved Fascinate for a while without problems. Had a battery discharge one night. Went to turn on while on charger and was bootlooping, freezing on the android "man" boot animation. I ordered a new battery up and tried turning the phone on. Now the phone would only...

I got a new phone and never rooted my Fascinate. Would there be any benefit to root the phone? I never considered doing this before and I use my phone for work so I never wanted to mess with it. I don't want to brick the phone. Thanks in advance.

When I went into my Google browser on my fascinate it showed that something that I know for a fact I didn't look up in the history. I have a pattern screen lock on my phone so I don't know how someone used my Google, but the history says it was used. How do I see the time and date of a Google...

I just picked up a Samsung Fascinate for Verizon. I needed it to get the phone to show up on a port on my computer. Usually I put the phone in diagnostic mode for it to do that. How do I put this phone into diagnostic mode? I'm on Gingerbread. None of the things I found online are working. The...

In December 2011 Verizon released the Android 2.3.6 Gingerbread update for Samsung Fascinate phones. Did you update your phone? Are you happy with the update? Did it solve the freezing and lockup problems for you? Mod: I searched the forums for this topic and found none specifically addressing...

I've been having a problem with my C Spire Showcase for a while, and I've tried several things to no avail. Hopefully this is the most appropriate sub-forum, since there isn't one dedicated to the Showcase, and it's closer to the Fascinate (I-500) than the "official" Galaxy S. The main...
