Love the phone but any1 know how to fix this problem:
I used the chinese tradition Ma Ma for a contact name. But the phone lists it as a letter beyond Z but it should be under M. I know its a glitch because my chinese Mei Mei is listed correctly

Thanks in advance

            Lols true, samsung fones really have terrible batterly life abt 2 hours of music playin n the battery goes dead not only does the battery life sux, in the samsung d820, if the songs were to be stored into the memory card, THE FONE wunt play the nxt song, so it means dat somehow dis every few minutes, u mus take out ur fone to choose another song that u wish to listen to, and oso theres horrible heat up EG:if u charge ur fone while playin musin usin the loud speaker the fone will heat within a few minutes, so wads the point of gettin a fone wif all dis kinda pathetic function, PLEASE SAMSUNG GOIN SLIM WUN GET U ANYWHERE

              Samsung phones are just plain rubbish.....my P310 & this E898 are just two good samples!!!

              Very poor battery life and terrible heatup!!! Reception quality became very bad after one month.....the opposite party can't hear me well & vice versa!!!

                    caller id is supported by the network so u better ask your network provider what's wrong with it!

                          >>>1. no radio

                          Not a big deal, since it's not necessary when only listen to mp3.. :)

                          >>>2. caller ID does not work 100%.

                          So far so good, it works perfect here

                          >>>3. speaker phone for MP3, yes. for hands free, no. strange??

                          This I agreed but now I am using bluetooth so problem solved

                          >>>5. touch screen is not user friendly.

                          You must be very FAT or have huge finger? The touch screen feature is very user friendly & easy to use at least better than SE z558 that I previously have for a few days

                          >>>6. poor standby time of less than 2 days.

                          It's about the same as the other phone & it's already good enough unless you are homeless

                          >>>7. photo from the 1.3mp camera is never sharp, image looks flat.

                          I agreed, if 2.0MP or above it would be better! But if compare with other 1.3MP such as W550i, this phone is not bad at all especially at night because its ISO feature helps a lot with low night area

                          >>>8. a very basic phone which costs a bomb.

                          It's more than basic so the price is reasonable

                            >>>>i'm wondering.. do ALL the makes of this phone say "Anycall" on it?

                              E898 supports chinese & have more built in memory 80MB

                              E890 is english version & only has 54MB built in capacity!

                                You must have something to cover the mic, that's why other party will hear echo....!!
                                If you use skin case, then you have cut a little hole for the mic...otherwise there will be an echo issue!
                                So far this is really a good phone, I like the touch screen & dictionary, also I love the mp4 player which can play full screen....so I can watch one hrs movie on the train when I am the way to work or home.., good phone!! If there is other color option like the x838 & the camera will up at least 2M or above, then this is a prefect phone!

                                    I dont use the flexi-cover at all. This is getting annoying. BTW I called Samsung here in the US and they were not able to help me at all because they dont support this model "it is a non-US model". I am returning the phone tomorrow.

                                      Hey, Mus. Do you use a flexi-cover for your phone? After posting my review, the echo issue (other caller hearing his/her own talking) was gone right after taking the flexi-protective case away from this phone.

                                        I am also experiencing echo issue with this phone being used in US, the problem happened about 2 weeks ago and does not go away. It's a pain for other people talking to me thru this phone, even though I can hear the other callers clearly without hearing myself talking. Anyone knows how to fix it?
