I just got this phone a couple days ago, I absolutely love it, great way to "detox" from useless social media apps, simple to use, rugged, and durable. I accidentally dropped my Motorolla smartphone, and of course since it's mostly glass, it shattered after the first and only time I dropped it. I don't think I'll go back to using overpriced glass paperweights soon as I love these old-school rugged phones. I wish Samsung would keep making these rugged phones. Definitely a fan of these Rugby phones now.

          Anonymous, 24 Oct 2012My husband got this phone because it is tough for work! But... more A few years late.... but this is what I did to stop the Samsung Rugby II from taking pictures by itself... It's the exposed PTT button on the left side of the phone. There is the up down volume button, and the button above that is the Push To Talk, Photo button. I didn't need it, since I don't use the push to talk and you can still take photos on the main screen. Using very tiny precision screwdriver, and placing a toothpick under the screwdriver so I wouldn't mark the phone, I carefully popped the button off of the phone. Then I cut about half of the protruding plastic pin off of the button, then used some strong super glue carefully applied all around the base of the button with a broken toothpick, I pushed the button back in place, and using elastic bands to hold a small piece of wood tightly over the button, I set it aside for a day to dry and cure. When I removed the elastic bands ....all done :-)
          No more phone taking pics by itself... :-) And the button is still there looking like the day it was made,, but just doesn't function anymore. I'm happy with my Samsung Rugby II. :)

          Buy a good tightly fitting belt holster for it.

                                  My husband got this phone because it is tough for work! But it takes continuous pictures and kills the battery. We cannot figure out how to shut off the camera. Deleted 594 black pics it took randomly today. Also cannot find a setting to turn off the clicking while texting! Help!M

                                      Rugby 2 makes a good but exspenive phone for the 2 year old to play with. Got it through A.T&T won't fix it and they sent me a refurbished one that does the same thing. When you go to send a text it might go or it might send you back to the main screen and then you have to make your way to the out box and try again. As for calls yes it might ring or go straight to voice mail. Depends on the mood its in.

                                        it has never let me down and so what if it is a little heavy or thick
                                        if i had one of the new style phones it would have been in the trash many times they are to thin and fragile i do not wear a suit the phone is on my belt and it is good for what i use it for
