      Dear Madan,

      If you keep a white shirt in the open for a week and not wear or soil it, even then it will become dirty and you will have to wash it again. Likewise, the world lacks in universities to teach hatred and anger, still both are found aplenty in the mass.

      You are quite a lucky (wise) guy for having virtues like satisfaction, thankfulness, peace. And it means only one thing, you have successfully saved your soul from the contagion of GREED outbreak. Feel gifted.

      Keep up your love for both GSMArena and C-170. As it so happens to be that wise people think alike. Isn't it so? Will soon write to you.

            I bought the Black C170 a fortnight back and have been very satisfied. Though the manual was not very helpful, I have learnt all the function thanks to Hindustani's tips and excellent advice. Once again, thankyou Hindustani.

              @SM

              there are no games here.
              And I have one in my hand right now, it belongs to my son's friend.
              It is an originally unlocked set, so not branded or anything.

              The sound while on call is amazingly high.
              Nice phone, this one.

                        I got this phone few weeks back. It is a basic/ compact stylish phone. I find the buttons have bit of extra resistance when you try to press them. I don't find the menu system that bad, when you get used to it, its ok. Other than that I really like it

                          dear decp, as a nok user you ARE quite habituated to charging your phone every night and also mid-conversation switch-offs as if the phone revolts to be a phone and prefers more to be a over-priced cabir-prone jack-of-all-trades that can-do-all-but-won't-do-any. that's what the nok users say these days, i.e, they prefer and pretend to be happy with the brand rather than the much deserved performance for what the price was paid. please DO regret the purchase of C-170 because "regret" is the only thing that suits the flashy nok users.

                          btw: before any swift angry retort, try to "learn" what a cabir-prone phone is.

                                Guess what? Samsung has disabled the software list for SGH-C170. Better late than never. People there are in serious need for an "apt" SQA personnel like Hindustani. After all, they've got both of my mail-id and cell # :) LOL :) No taunts. Just an open-heart joke.

                                    Thank you for your answer Hindustani.

                                    Of course it's humane to make errors. I can't get your link working, which means that I can't read the answer of FAQ Nr. 15 as you refers to. But even though it's humane to fail it is also common sense to correct the errors you make and I can't understand why Samsung hasn't removed the software programs from their webside regarding the C170. Because if you don't correct a known error it can't no longer be excused as a humane error, then we are talking about misleading the custormers.

                                    Anyway I still miss a well-ordered manual to phone in stead of the lousy manual there comes with the phone. When other mobile producers can make it, it should also be possible to Samsung to do.

                                      Dear Mikael & other SAM enthusiasts,

                                      Probably we all acknowledge a very old saying, "To err is humane." The same thing goes for SGH-C 170 software listings.

                                      On one hand, there are 4 packages listed as supporting software. On the other hand the Answer Centre FAQ No.15 says C-170 doesn't support PC-connections.

                                      SAM tech-support personnel personally satisfied my dilemma -- officially, of course.

                                        How can it be that software can be downloaded to your computer from Samsungs officiel website if it isn't possible to use with the phone?

                                        You can see it right here:
                                        http://www.samsung.com/uk/support/download/supportDown.do?group=mobilephones&type=mobilephones&subtype=bar&model_nm=SGH-C170&mType=SW&dType=D&vType=R

                                        I tried to download it and install it on my computer and the programs seems to work as it should. But how to connect computer and the mobile phone is uncleared to me. It seems like one of the programs make a modem that should be used but I don't know how to make it work.
