    From this forum, this phone APPEARS to be afflicted with a bug causing it to drop calls. I think GSM Arena needs to implement some way to authenticate flaws. After all, reports of just one or two issues could massively disrupt sales of an otherwise good product. (I use an N95 8G but got to play with an F480 and thought it quite sweet - excellent call quality.) Anyway, this is just an idea - perhaps GSM Arena should contact someone in authority at a phone reseller or the manufacterer themselves and obtain confirmation or otherwise of any reported flaws. (I owned three excellent Sony Ericsson K800i phones. Each failed, but other people I know had no problems, so it may well be a specific software build - same with the F480 perhaps?)

      Well you know what would be nice a way to make it change the wallpaper itself say every morning or hour lol.

      Also more widgets eg one for writing messages so you dont have to keep going to menu then messages then create takes to long

                Got this phone yesterday. Was actually going to cancel my contract with T-Mobile as my work supplies me with a BlackBerry Curve (O2, superb phone). I work in the mobile industry and had heard about the Tocco from clients. Had a play and thought why not (only pay £7.50/month). So far very impressed, internet is very good, decent camera and good music player, and thats all I need.

                But can anyone tell me how to switch off the screen saver pictures?

                  Anonymous, 16 Jun 2008**** WARNING **** When listening to answer phone message... moreI seriously wouldn't be too worried about this, the LG Prada which was even out before the i-phone is set up like this. In Fact I think on every phone I've had you press 3 to delete the message and have never had this happen.

                    **** WARNING ****

                    When listening to answer phone messages be VERY, VERY careful. I selected '1' to hear the message and the next second I got the message deleted prompt. My face has accidentally touched the '3' (delete message) key on the phone and therefore I did not get the message.

                    Either listen on loudspeaker or keep phone an inch from face.

                    Am amazing oversight on the behalf of Samsung

                          Anyone noticed that you can't progress past levl 3 of the PhotPuzzle game because the squares to the right of the phone do not respond to being selected?

                          Another annoying feature. Took a pic of my daughter in portrait position to set as wallpaper. When it set, it had twisted 90 degrees with no way of rotating it and saving the rotation. Had to take another with phone in landscape position so the wallpaper would show correctly, taking into account the 90 degree rotation.

                          Also have Orange - am waiting to see if I get the call dropping.

                                  It does sound like the call dropping problem is something to do with Orange. I've had mine for two weeks now and not one call has been lost. I'm on O2.

The first three calls dropped out. Took it straight back and he changed it for a new 1, got home and the first call dropped. I changed the network settings to gsm900/1800. Seems fine at the mo, but no 3g now with this network setting.
