    • Hi, the factory reset code at Samsung Galaxy Ace will work without problems at normal or standard phone. This code may not work properly if your Galaxy Ace already rooted or install with custom ROM. Please try to do hard reset with hardware button key. If the problem still happen you can try to restore or reinstall the firmware using Samsung KIES applications from your computer. But you have to download Samsung KIES application from Samsung official website.

  7. I factory reset my galaxy ace through the options on the phone through settings. I have everything back up and running but internet is extremely slow. My Mobil data is on and I have full service but yet its still slow. Is there anything I can do about this?

    Reply
    • Hi, you can try to use wifi Internet connection to test your data. If your connection back to faster again while using Wifi, then maybe you have to make sure your APN settings for Mobile network are correct, sometime the operator want us to use specific APN setting for faster Internet mobile network at your Samsung Galaxy Ace.

    • Hi, usually if your Samsung Galaxy Ace has already finish follow hard reset steps and no problems with the process, then your phone call functions will work normally. Please make sure your Samsung Galaxy Ace not at Airplane Mode or your GSM simcard is fine. If you still get same problems, please consider to do hard reset one more time, after finish then try directly your GSM phone call to other number, because if your phone ever blocked at some installed applications, then this process will bypass everything because you start at very beginning before login at Google account.

    Tried the volume up + home + power or the home + power , didn’t work, boot with the samsung animation through the menu.
