    Hey guys!!
    The Samsung d500 is the best! But however..
    I left my manual book at a friend's place the FIRST DAY I GOT THE PHONE! LOL so I need help....

    Does anybody know how to put mp3 on the Samsung d500?.. either using the bluetooth dongle or USB cable (whatever that means..)

    I've been trying to figure out how to put mp3 on my phone for the longest! ..mainly because you can set it as your ringtone ;)
    Help help help!

        yeah ron allan, u do need to set up and enable wap/gprs to be able to send/receive mms messages. once it took me over a day just to receive an mms message after it was sent.
        jimjones is doesnt have wi-fi, not many phones or i dont even think any phone have wi-fi.
        Laura yes there is an option to turn into quiet mode by holding the # button. in this mode it just vibrates when u get a call or receive a message. And also recorded videos hav got sound, pretty good sound too i think.
        I think that it is a great deseign myself with the slider. it is great as it locks automatically just in case u forget to lock ur phone like a nokia and end up pressing all the buttons making unwanted calls etc.
        I also think the battery life of the phone is very good. i get about 3/4 days out of it. Also i bought a spare battery and desktop charger from ebay so its very handy.
        Also the languages on the phone depend on wat firmware is on the phone.
        Hope this is help to everyone.

              AMY LOOK AT THIS hi, you have asked about puting MP3s on the d500, easy!!! first you need to buy something call a BLUETOOTH USB DONGLE, load up the soft were and you can send videos and images and MP3s all to your phone. 02 shops sell dongles and most mobile phone shops do!

                      Yes Laura theres sound with video but the video is so slow n jerky indoors it makes u not want to bother using it so its pointless for me if i wanna take a video when im in a club etc.

                              stuart, do i also need to enable WAP/GPRS settings before i can SEND AND RECIEVE mms? because i get the same error message ('not available bearer') whenever i try to send or retrieve a recieved mms.

                                      Hi
                                      Can anyone tell me if the D500 has adjustable size fonts. When i recieve a TxT on my current V600 i struggle to read it without my reading glasses which i do not have with me when im in the pub ect.

                                      Can you set the font to a larger size as the default on the D500.
                                      Thanks (in anticipation)
