Why this phone is very good: Well made, very good sound quality and nice compact design. Yes, it has it's share of problems (what phone doesn't), but as a cell PHONE, it beats Nokia. My previous nokia 6230i had a creaking face plate and really tinny sound, which is typical of most of the newer phones. Good design rules!

A general question for all samsung phones.
I have a samsung and have made my own tunes (*.mmf -polophonic) and have set it to vibrate on a certain frequency. (eg. vibration on bassy beats).
Can you get the ringtone (mp3) to ring and vibrate at the same time?.

Hi,
Anybody here know how to synchronize with Outlook, so I can transfer my contacts from Outlook to the phone? The user manual is useless with regards to this.
Thanks

Hey anonymous,
Yes, the visualizer is a fake. It's just there to "visualize" the sound or something. So, it's just accessory. I don't mind, I'm more concerned about actually playing the music files.
Hey Nibiru,
I agree with you about that cover display feature. It's just not worth it to have something display and just fade away before you can even read the date. Anyhoo, the phone IMO is a budget phone, comparing to other Nokia devices it's cheaper with a better sound quality.
Yes, there are a lot of bugs as well. Sometimes fast forward doesn't work, then the phone hangs. Sometimes you can't set the pics in Favorites to your wallpaper. Sometimes photos look too bright. I can surely name a lot of my fair share of complaints, but I might as well look on he upside... If the phone doesn't suit you, then I respect your opinion.
Hey Jim K,
About reducing the size of music files, you said that Nero can convert them to mp4. What settings are you using? At first I converted a file to mp4 and it was reduced to half the size of the mp3 version (around 1.6 MB). But I found that you can further reduce the mp3 file down to 48 kbps mono (1.3 MB), and it somehow still sounds better than mp4. Any experience with other bitrates and conversions?
Hey loader,
I've heard that you can dowload .mmf files that allow vibrate and melody at the same time. Haven't tried it though.
Hey ,
There's no option to remove the date and time in the main display. And I haven't tried playing AAC files, as mp3 files sound better.
Hey sandy,
If you read back a few pages, someone actually talked about using Samsung PC Suite, so go up and read on that.
Hey need help,
It's not such a bad thing, but connecting the phone to a PC USB port is automatically charging your phone, and there's no way to have it otherwise. SE W800 works the same way. The reason it charges when it turns on is because it stupidly uses the charge to open up the phone. Go figure.
Hey Hanne hansen, and everyone else,
Maybe you guys haven't done the battery "break in", that's why the battery dies quick. Although I don't really play the phone's music for more than 12 hours, my battery can still last 2 days. Or maybe it's just because I don't realize it. Dunno. Even my old N6260 discharges after I use the radio for more than 8 hours...
Hey Andre,
I agree with what you said. Sadly, I don't ave enough dough for a new 6230i.
Cheers all! =)

hi all,
some comment about this telephone...
saw it, liked it a lot, nice design, nice colour, nice features,..bluetooth, radio, mp3, 1.3 Mp camera, nice screen 260K, 96Mb Ram....
I bought it sure i was going to make a good choice, and the cell really has nice features, radio and mp3 are ok, camera is ok, screen is very good, pc connection through bluetooth is easy and efficient
but... as i read here, i charged the cell for 15 hours each time
the first 3 times,
(EACH DAY!!)
to (dream) the battery life could get longer
cos, the battery life of this telephone is
about 24 hours if you just look at it staying 1 meter far from it,
and less than 10 hours if you use it as
i pretend to use a telephone (few calls, some sms, little wap surfing, little bluetooth usage)
The telephone also switched off twice by itself, and closing and opening again the clam
it switched on again (**magicly**)... not big problem (maybe)
but i dont like this episodes from a 2 days old phone
Didnt thought twice...
after a week i had it, i went back to the shop
and asked them to change it,
cos i am sure its not a bad battery the one i had in the package,
but its the standard charge lifetime of a "normal" healthy E730 battery,
what i totally dont accept nowadays from a telephone.
went back to Nokia, buying a 6230i
wich i am very satisfied of.
i dont understand too the reason to have a second display
wich just works for 3 seconds and then switches off..
maybe Samsung is sadly aware about the short
battery life and tried to save their *ss
not even setting an option in the software
to keep the external display on
in conclusion... the cell looks nice,
it has good features but its not supported
by efficient hardware (battery)
peace!

why does my phone start charging when i connect it to the computer with a USB? Also, when i actually charge my phone, it stops charging then continues again. When the phone is off, the screen displays that it is fully charged but when i turn the phone on it continues charging again.
