Ok, Im pretty much a tech dummy, but I want to root this phone to remove pre-installed apps. It seems that there are a tone of how to treads, but they all seem different. Can someone point me to the easiest way to root this phone with the most step by step directions?

Weird problem if the phone is off and I try to connect phone to charger it locks the phone up and it wont respond unless I remove the battery. Same thing happens if I connect phone with usb cable to PC when phone is off. If the phone is on it charges fine and connects to PC fine. I took a...

Is there a way I can root my t399n without Odin? I can get Odin running in wine but the phone can't be detected in download mode, and I can't get a VM running. My computer is running manjaro (but soon to be Ubuntu 14 if I can find my SD or USB ) if that's any help

I recently got the Samsung Galaxy light for metro PCs and when I plug in my earphones I doesn't "read" them so idk if its just the phone or if I need " special" ear phones (I've tried the regular 3.5mm earphones)

Does this phone have to be rooted to move apps to the SD card? I have an app called Clean Master from Cheetah Mobile. It has a feature to move apps to the SD card but it's telling me that my internal storage and SD card storage is the same. Which doesn't make sense to me because when I go to...

Is there supposed to be a light on this phone that indicates when it's being charged or when its done?

I really do like this phone, but one of problems is calls that start over Wi-Fi are dropping when leaving Wi-Fi. Does everybody get that same ? is there a fix? Cause it can be annoying. Even that I don't make that all that many telephone calls anymore, a sizable amount of my phone calls...

I have the samsung galaxy light sgh-t399n from metro pcs. I managed to root it when I first got it with odin and a tar file that someone online supplied (forget the forum...could be this one or xda) None of the one click root methods worked so the odin and tar file method was the only...

Just a suggestion, but there seems to be a lot of confusion as to which carrier people are talking about on this phone. Maybe you could start separate forums for metro pcs and T-Mobile the way the optimus F6 has its all things root sub forums?

I was wondering what are the best kernals for this phone... I am new to all this and actually someone gave me this phone with stock root 4.2... I just don't want to screw it up.

I got a galaxy light rooted.. anyway know the best mobile hotspot download that would work for me?

I just got this phone on Metro PCS. My old phone was ancient and didn't. have the option of disabling apps. So, I rooted it to delete most of the pre-installed apps. However, this phone has the option of disabling apps. What's the difference?

Looked on the major auction site, and phone unlock codes for this phone seemed out of the park. I've no pressing need to unlock the phone, but wondered what was up, that the codes were so expensive.

Hi, I received a T mobile software update this morning. The only details are it's 63.91 mbs in size. The only thing is, I have a Metro PCS version of Galaxy Lite. I have postponed installation till I get some info. Has anyone else received this update or have any clue to what it addresses...

Hi, I'm looking to see if there is a way to add wireless charging to the Samsung galaxy light. I can find several add-on charging receiver cards for other Samsung model phones, but nothing listed for the light. :( Any incites or ideas? Thanks in advance! Sincerely, John Messina
