Just to answer the question- how to silence your fone. Press and hold the # key then do the same to put the sound back on. Hope this helps.

      Hi All. I have just bought the Samsung S500i.
      Since I have purchased the handset, I have not been able to receive or send mms. I am definitely provisioned correctly on the network.
      Now I must admit, I am a little remedial when it comes to new technology!, and have always used Nokia's in the past, so if anyone can take the time to help me with very basic instructions on how to send, receive and view mms on my phone, I really would very much appreciate it. Cheers, Jim.

                i was wondering if anyone knew how badly the music player drains the phone's battery. the battery lasts me about 3 days from full to empty and i'm wondering what it would be reduced to. thanks.

                  hi everyone i was thinking about purchasing this phone because it looks nice but before i go for it can some 1 tell me if you can put security locks on your files like you can do on the d500, by security lockes i mean if you can but pin codes on to prevent others acessin your files for example your images

                            Hi
                            Has anyone else had a problem with the s500i restarting itself? I'm now returning my second phone to O2 because of this and they assure me that it's not been a problem with other phones, which seems suspicious to me!! It's becoming very annoying and I wish i'd never got this phone and can't wait to get rid of it.

                              how can you transfer a cd to the phone, as the software I got with it wont do it as it first needs to be converted into MP3 format. please email me snowdrop_23@hotmail.com thanks, otherwise its a fantastic phone

                                        how come when you get sent a picture message on this phone i get a message saying 'incompatable message format'??

                                        how can i get it to stop saying that?
                                        is it something to to with the settings on the phone?
