                take it directly to a samsung service centre. as sumone in the forum mentioned before, tell them that u were transferring files and suddenly there was a power cutoff and the phone got like this. u won't be charged anything. it does not seem that this is in ur hand anymore... refer directly to samsung centre.

                          this happened with me also. check these things:

                          1.the moment u click on port search, the MSM6250/MSM6250A changes to BRCM2133.
                          change it back to MSM6250/MSM6250A.

                          2. the moment u click on "port search", the box beside "BOOT" option goes blank. notice this. u must choose the file again.
                          notice that all fields are set properly before u click on "download".

                            check the gprs settings with ur service provider, youtube videos should have no problem in streaming. this problem is not expected.

                                        Hi,

                                        I've faced the same problem when I try to connect browser and the problem is not with the mob, you need to contact ur GSM provider and inform them the same, so that they will send you a link or file to install that on ur mob and once it is done it takes atleast 24 hours to activate or depends on your provider and once it is done you need to switch off and on ur mob to get browser connected.

                                        I've the same prob and I've contacted my provider Airtel and they fixed that and now i've almost downloaded videos and mp3 from my mob :)
