I've been cruising around this forum looking to get saavy with the vocabulary and such, but much of this is escaping me. I'll just explain my situation and then get to asking questions.
I recently received a Verizon phone from a friend, a Samsung SCH-i500RKV (fascinate) to be precise. He had it rooted and told me it needed to be updated manually.
I had it flashed over to Cricket and activated at the store for talk and text only.
I had some trouble deleting my friends contact information and performed a factory reset of the phone. Since it is now active on the Cricket network it no longer has access to the verizon network for updates and I believe it is having driver problems. The phone works for making calls and sending text messages, but I cannot import my contacts file from my old phone's SD card because the "settings" button does not respond. The same goes for the home and search buttons. I also get absolutely no connectivity to my laptop via USB. The computer does not detect a device and neither does the phone attempt to connect to the computer, though it does charge.
When I power up the phone it comes up with an error message "Sorry! The application setup wizard (process com.sec.android.app.setupwizard) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.
It seems to me that a simple update would solve my problems and fix the phones drivers and give me full software/hardware functionality, but I have no idea how to go about this given the phones situation. I would also like to know how I might back up the Cricket Flash as most flashing instructions (that I've found) are full flashes where mine is talk and text only. If I could back up my talk and text only flash then I might be more bold about messing with the situation.
Any help is appreciated, thanks for your time!
