I'm hoping you're not intending to come off as entitled when, clearly, gratitude is the proper tone here. Perhaps if it is an issue of "enough time to hack it," you can undertake the project and find these loopholes?

Oh yeah, you won't find it on Sprint or Samsung's sites and they will deny knowledge of it (most likely). But the flashers and rom are all over this forum. If you really can't find them here at XDA, then I'll see if I can put together (or find) a little packet or something for you a little later...

Howdy! All of this sounds painfully familiar. I've been through the same thing. Yep! You can flash back to the 8.0 GDR2 rom no problem. This is not a fix, just a work around. WARNING: Be careful, not my fault if you brick stuff, blah blah... So, after fighting the problem and trying to...

Hi Schulzey, Only way to downgrade is to flash your rom, and they are good tutorials out there. You are right - the hard reset is the culprit. (Happened to me, too). I've managed to get 8.1 DP on my Neo S, but I did have to do some manual programming. Good luck!

Philip, Forgive me if I'm being silly here, but are you connecting your USB cable using any sort of hub (including front panel connectors)? I had this issue until I did a direct connection (i.e., the connectors in the back). Some hubs and boards are weird for some reason (mine is an ASUS...

Hmm...smarter folks have no yet weighed in, I'm afraid! Most likely they are thinking about your problem and/or working on other stuff. So, my thought is that somewhere along the line, you debranded your phone - disconnecting the provisioning somehow - by doing factory resets (which is, after...

Sorry to hear that! If you want help, we're going to need OS and FW versions, as well as carrier. Not that anyone - much less me! - is promising that we can help. (My MMS is still down.) I'd be willing to bet you did a factory reset at some point, right?

Just checking so that smarter folks can help you: Did you by any chance do a factory reset at any point post-update? Also, please post your OS and FW numbes, just in case.

Fixed may be too strong. I think it'd be fair to say most of us now have data working, though some (myself included) still have no MMS capability with the 8.1 preview (and no carrier/manufacturer approved way of getting back to 8.0).

Just an update (small, but it's something) from Microsoft on the issue. I'm assuming the ATIV Neo S is one of the devices in question. See below: From the thread here (myself, fgr, iknowsingh, and others participating) : http : / / bit.ly/1n5z7ET (I can't post links yet)

Ha! Yeah, for the short term, true. Maybe I'm overly optimistic, but I suppose I can flash back to vanilla 8, unlock, and use the info that we know now to get 8.1 up and running properly (or just skip 8.1 for now). Thing is, going to 8.1 and doing a factory reset gave me roaming- something I...

Glad I could help, fgr! So to be clear, cellular data is at least up for you now? Again, bigger thanks belong to Blue_Frog on the Sprint forums. He's boss. So, did you manage to edit the registry in 8.1 post-factory reset? If so, how'd you go about that? (That's where I'm stuck since I can't...

Hey folks, I've been following the goings on here for the last four months (I know, still a noob), yet I wanted to say that the 8.1 preview has a particular registry key that changes on factory reset that gets in the way of PRL updates (which may be a cause of the cellular data issues). In...

I'm in the same boat, and I've been unable to find a solution. Fairly sure that it is an OTA update only, and MS says it's controlled by the carrier. Annoyingly/Interestingly, Samsung lists the Kies software on the support page for this phone, and that software has the ability to download and...
