            Sri, 20 Feb 2009Hi, I installed the trial version of WINTERFACE by VITO,... morea.) in WINTERFACE settings you try disable the built-in iPhone style lock. I'm not sure..

            b.) While in WINTERFACE, you can press the RED(hang) hardware button to go to standby screen. just assign a shortcut to go back to winterface easily.

            though winterface is great, fast, usable & lovely, i personally prefer "launch manager by fanasticbytes". I'll post all the very usefull apps for i780 here tomorrow.

                Gwapito, 15 Feb 2009You want an iPhone interface for i780? You are looking for ... moreHi,

                I installed the trial version of WINTERFACE by VITO, to be precise "Communication Suite" which will give a Package

                1. Winterface Mobile Shell
                2. Contact Manager
                3. SMS Text Messenger
                4. OnScreen Keyboard

                Everything is great!

                But I have a small problem.

                I use this phone mainly for my official use - Outlook email, Excel, Word,.....

                Sine the phone is configured with my Mail Server, it gets locked if in not use for 5min. So a numeric password is required to unlock.

                Since Wwinterface is installed, I'm facing following issues (90% of the time):

                1. Winterface screen is on top of the authentication screen, so I cannot enter the Password to unlock or Switch off the mobile
                2. If the authentication screen comes on top pf Winterface, Touch interface does not work (QWERTY Keypad cannot be used for entering the password)

                Continuation of the second problem is, in this situation even if I receive a call of SMS, I cannot attend to it or open the message. Touch screen is no more usable.

                So, I need to remove the battery to switch off the phone, evern Power key does not work.

                Any suggestions from the experts here will help me a lot.

                Contact Manager, SMS Text Messenger, OnScreen Keyboard are working great.

                Thanks in advance.

                  mikez, 19 Feb 2009hii can someone give me the step to install windows 6.1? ... moreHere's even more detailed step for 6.1 upgrade including activesync link. This firmware works for southeast asian.

                  1. Download ActiveSync 4.5 from the link below & install:
                  http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/en-us/downloads/eulas/eula_activesync45_1033.mspx?ProductID=76

                  2. Download Samsung Modem Drivers from the link below then install:
                  Vista: http://uk.samsungmobile.com/pm...108&coflag=0
                  XP: http://uk.samsungmobile.com/pm...107&coflag=0

                  3. Download the following firmware installer but DON'T install yet:
                  Vista: http://fus.samsungmobile.com/i...er_Vista.exe
                  XP: http://fus.samsungmobile.com/i...rader_XP.exe

                  4. Restart PC! and test ActiveSync if it can successfully connect to your device and you can backup your phonebook and important files if you want.

                  5. Fully charge your phone! and if possible Hard reset it to avoid conflicts (by a. simultaneously press green and red buttons. b. keep pressing them then also press the power-button at the top. c. release the power-button then you can read instructions on the screen to press spacebar to format it.

                  6. Finally, install the firmware installer. it will only take just 10 minutes. then your done! NOTE: it will not just update to WM6.1 but also update to the latest firmware PDXHL2! enjoy!

                          My i780 isn't what I expected. When recieving multiple text messages at a time the alert ring stops going off. I have to reset my phone to get it to go on again. I reset my phone atleast 5-10 times a day because the ringer and message alerts don't go off. How can I fix this problem?
