    People moaning about the battery life:

    Have you tried turning the display brightness down? I have mine on the lowest setting and its bright enough - battery lasts a good 3-4 days which is more than enough.

    Also, those of you who cant get PC to detect it. I'm guessing u didnt follow instruction properly cause I did and it works fine - install disk before pluggin in!

    As for setting mp3 as ringtone, read previous posts u lazy bastards!

      Hi,

      I have heard that the Samsung S500i does not have a wml page browser.

      If this is the case, it means that folks with this phone will be unable to visit my wap site. I'm *despearte* to know please.

      If you have on eof these, would you mind checking to see if you can view www.toneloader.com/testing123/ please?

      PLEASE let me know what happens.

      Thank you in advance.

          to make your ringtones tru tones u must convert them to AAC format so then u can set them as ringtones,battery life is poor 1-2 days, but over all the phone is great!!!

                  it's the D600 which works correctly with a 512K card... for exemple a movie about 90 minutes and 220 Ko. mine, S500i not.

                    with extended memory (512K), it begins very, very slow ... when you navigate on your card. If files are big, it is NOT possible to used : 30 secondes?1 minute ? to jump to the next file ... the same memory card on another samsung (i don't remerber the number of samsung og my colleague) DOES work correctly ... and he can see movie of 90 minutes and more !!!! (3gp format, course). but for moment, on my S500i, it doesn't work ... be continued ...

                      good and easy to use ... but life battery is very very very BAD! 1 to 2 days maximum when my old S341i did 4 to 6 days for the same using. If u use video, so your screen, just few minutes 10 to 15, your battery will be KO, and it begins hot !

                                      Hiya Gordon, To turn your keypad tones off you go into your settings, go to sound settings, go to keypad tone turn the volume right down or switch it off :o)
                                      Does anyone know how to add ringtones yet??

                                        I just bought this phone and have to admit that it's pretty cool. But does anyone know how to turn off the keypad tones? Gets annoying when trying to text someone as it beeps with every key press.
