blinky,
followed your instructions to get mp3s as ringtones, it worked thanks. do you know if you can get more tones for text messages. the ten on the phone are crap.

            how come on the battery for this phone it has www.samsungmobile.com but on the website this phone is nowhere to be found? and mp3 ringtones cannot be done. you have to convert to AAC on your comp (itunes) and put into the music folder of the phone and go into the file manager > music and select set-as ringtone otherwise it says file too large.

                  Just got s500i today, great phone, camera good,video excellent, all features you could need and i-mode is ace. To use usb cable with phone i installed all stuff from disc then when it says detected new hardware device make sure disc is in drive and say no to searching web and click ok or next or whatever it is. keep doing this and eventually when you load up samsung editor thing its connected. You can put mp3s on using this.

                        Hey all,

                        My partner has got this phone and bought a 512mb memory stick and uploaded around 100 songs on to it. Anyone know how to get the phone to shuffle through all these songs without sticking them in to an album? The albums can only hold around 50 songs or so and you can't shuffle between albums :-(

                        Cheers in advance for any help!

                        Steve

                            hey chez, how ya doin? sorry i took so long replying have bin a bit bzy:) nokia and s/e are worlds appart in terms of menus etc. the w800i is slim line does have good cam but has an orange streak that may annoy u after a while! i think it has 512 mb mem with the expandable mem available. it is v sim to k750i but with the walkman feature.
                            i do like s/e fones, now n70 i know theyhave a good spec (roll eyes) but ye they are a bit brickish. my over all advice is there are plenty of h/s available that have all the gadgety things ur lookin for but witc r also sexy too, the n seies are to be launched fully so keep an eye out for the forthcoming nokias and if we'r lucky they will be compact...tho somehow i doubt it. for feature packed h/s and slim line look s/e is the way to go! they r sexy hot fones and that coming from a samsung fan ;)my advice wait for the nxt gen wlkman fone from s/e bound to b all round winner.

                                  Im getting a new phone in a weeks time, and I think I should get the S500i because I think it looks so cool butiIm not 100% whether I should get the D600 instead. I don't think it looks as good as the S500i, but I just need some people's opinions as to what I should do.
