I have bought this phone and I must say that I am extremly happy with the handset. Lovely feel with a beautiful screen. The battery is excelent. Even with very heavy use of wifi it managed two days. Only drawback for this phone is the 15fps QVA video playback quality. It can take perfect pictures though. I paid £130+£10 top-up... So far.. Well worth the money!

        Hi!!!!
        To my dear brothers and sisters out there, I am back once again to give you the best suitable video format for this phone. Now let me tell you one thing before I proceed with the settings of the videos. You will get the most optimum clarity and video experience only if the original video file that you have is absolutely perfect. Please keep this in mind always. I found this after doing hell lot of research on my brothers handset the samsung star. Please copy and paste the steps mentioned below or if you can remember it well and fine:-

        1]. Install "SUPER VIDEO CONVERTER" by eRightsoft or "FREE VIDEO CONVERTER" by Koyotesoft in your system. Now the reason I am telling you to download and install this application is because it is totally free and you can use it forever without worrying about registration.

        2]. This phone has 5 megapixel camera and has the capability to record videos in QVGA format and is capable of playing it. But luckily it supports the playback of WQVGA format as well. OK! I think I confused you a lot. So In simple words I mean to say that it is capable of playing 16:9 resolution video as well but only within the range of QVGA resolution.

        3]. Once you install any of these video converter in your system please do the following settings before converting the video file:

        SUPER VIDEO CONVERTER
        ---------------------
        Add the multimedia file in the list then,
        Output File Format: "MP4"
        Output Video Codec: "MPEG-4"
        Output Audio Codec: "AAC-LC"
        Video Scale Size: "320 x 176"
        Aspect: "16:9"
        Frame / Sec: "25"
        Bit-rate: "768 kbps" or "816 kbps" {for video}
        Sampling Frequency: "44100" or "48000"
        Channels: "2"
        Bit-rate: "160 kbps" {for audio}
        Finally, Click on the "Encode" Button

        Don't do any thing extra other than the above mentioned settings rest of the necessary things are selected by default.



        FREE VIDEO CONVERTER
        ---------------------
        Add the multimedia file in the list then,
        Output Format: "MP4"
        Video Codec: "MPEG-4"
        Size: "320 x 176"
        Aspect: "16:9"
        Fps: "25"
        Bitrate: "768 kbps" or "816 kbps" {for video}
        Audio Codec: "AAC"
        Frequency: "44100" or "48000"
        Channels: "Stereo"
        Bitrate: "160 kbps" {for audio}
        Finally, Click on the "Convert Video" Button

        Don't do any thing extra other than the above mentioned settings rest of the necessary things are selected by default.

        ENJOY!!!!! Your Videos.

                Hi!!!!
                To all my dear brothers and sisters out there. I have a solution for you if you are willing to install third party applications into your samsung marvel. First you need to browse the website where the .JAR file of the application you want to install in your phone is available for download through your phones browser using Wi-Fi or GPRS feature. Then simply click on the download option on that web page, you can observe that the application will be automatically installed in your phone. I came to know this from my brother who is using samsung star. He has installed tea shark browser and some games in his phone through the GPRS. You too can do some research on it and see for yourself.
                Hope someone among you may definitely follow my instructions mentioned above. I will also be posting the perfect format to convert your favorite videos / movies in your marvel in my next post. Enjoy it!!!!. BYE!!!!!!

                              i have this over a week. its good but have some queries -

                              1. sms gets stored in sim card 1st, its annoying
                              2. am still unsure of its sound quality through speakers, its very low i suppose n lacks bass
                              3. continous shooting mode doesnt take 9 photos, instead takes only 2 or 3
                              4. the widgets cant be locked as in lg phs, so u will hav to be careful not to move it
                              5. press *#0*# and then option 7 doesnt light the torch continously as in jet
                              6. in 'my files' sthumbdb.tdb gets displayed and in the memory card of 'my files' memory status is missing
                              7. only 10 ppl can be sent sms at once and it doesnt minimize, so u cant do anything while sending sms
                              8. a few more theames could be have been good
                              9. there is no application manager so u wont know what application is running in background

                                  how long does your battery last?

                                  texting, and browsing a little..
                                  because the store already changed
                                  my battery because it doesn't last
                                  that long..
