sri, 01 Dec 2008Hello All, I bought this phone today....It's performance... moreHi!
1) sure you can remove Samsung mobile navigator but then you'll have an empty space there which doesn't contribute a lot to the already awful Samsung Today plug-in. My advice - lose that and get Spb Mobile Shell-you get a completely different touch friendly device with that software. It's worth it, but try trial first:)

2) I don't have a problem with wi-fi, could you try different spots and report back if it's discpnnecting on all of them. Maybe there's a problem with your router/internet connection:)

Regards!

    Hello All,

    I bought this phone today....It's performance is good.

    I have couple of issues(may be I have done some mistake)

    1. On the Home screen I can see "Navigator is not Installed' message. Why am I seeing this and how can I install it or remove this message from the Home screen
    2. Internet works fine with GPRS connection but with Wi-Fi it gets disconnected very freequently. Could you pl. let me know why?

      ANNU, 30 Nov 2008@All i780 users.kindly help me regarding the followings. .... moreHi! Battery performance is great (2-3 days with some wi-fi, gps, a lot of calls and sms, games etc..). Since you get two batteries (at least in my country) and a separate charger you should be able to get through the whole week:))
      The phone doesn't hang a lot, but obvously it depends on the software you install on it. I have installed more than 50 progs but the unit only crashed when i used one application (removed it and now it's ok). You have to be prepared for a crash or two in a month though (windows and all). Otherwise it's working great:))) Regards!

            Please remember that to run any software smoothly in i780 just close all application in (Task Manager) or by pressing OK button for 2~ seconds and close all before running any software/application :)

              ron, 25 Nov 2008You heard about Samsung i788?yes, it's supposed to be Black Jack III in USA, but the specs are still a mystery, could be lacking some stuff from i780, or it could get some additional stuff for us market.

In our country the operator sends the sms with all the settings and you just press ok and they automatically set your gprs account. Otherwise manual install is in order. I don't have any problems with mms - works smooth everytime. Hope it helps! Regards!

                        Hi Tommy,

                        After i install the Skype for i780, it can not connect to the internet by using GPRS, it can connect only with Wifi or 3G. So do you have any Skype program which can use with GPRS ? Thanks.

                                hi, I am getting an impression i780 runs on a
                                612Mhz processor. . .mine LG KS20 runs on
                                a 400 Mhz processor and my battery is drained
                                by 65% after continuous talk time of ( 1hour and the half;)

                                has any here tested the claim of the talk time on this phone. Samsung main claims 8 hours or so I think;

                                lastly; where does it says a 612Mhz processor when the processor's speed is not even listed on the detailed specs on Samsung website.

                                M thinking of jumping into this i780 bandwagon.

                                all evaluations here has been appreciated

Maybe you should try to connect with Opera. I had the problem that IE wouldn't connect to wi-fi (chosing gprs instead) but with Opera no problems. If you can't connect neither with 3g nor with wi-fi i would first check settings and then ask you retailer for help. It must connect either with gprs or 3g or wi-fi...Regards!

                                      I wonder if anyone has a remedy for this weird problem when a Samsung SGH i780 used with properly paired with Stereo Bluetooth (Bluetrek ST1) with both profiles namely; Hands Free and Stereo Headset active. The problem: All incoming calls have to answered by headset answer button as the pre-set “Auto Answer” on the phone does not function.
                                      The “Auto Answer” only works when the “Wired Stereo Headset” is plugged in.
                                      I have done some research on this problem via the web and it seems to be a problem with the “Omnia” as well.
                                      Any one out there experience the same problem or have a solution please. It might be a "LATENT DEFECT"
                                      Thanks in advance to all replies.
