BO55:..

Your question, if u could change the shortcuts on the "navi-pad" and touchbuttons?

Yes, u can sett 3 out of 4 on the "navipad", (down, left, right). The "up-key" is preset for your own personal menu.. (an menu that u can preset ur most used options.. like messeging, phonebook, calender etc..)

You can also preset the touch-buttons!!

Hope this helps!

    I bought this phone last week but am sending it back - it looks amazing and has good features but the main problem is that when I make calls the call doesn't appear to go through - no dialling tone or anything - though the person on the other end will pick up and be able to hear me but I can't hear them! It also sometimes has difficulty receiving calls.

    The other problem has been the sensitivity of the keys - it is VERY easy to accidentally touch the 'C' button and exit out of whatever you were doing.

    The selection of words on the predictive text setting is hard to use quickly as rather than pressing one button and it going through the options, it comes up with a drop down menu that you then have to scroll through to choose your word which is quite annoying especially if you have a long word as the whole word doesn't show and you have to wait for it to scroll across.

    The other texting problem is that the 9 key is not as receptive and often end up pressing the space key instead.

    I have had some difficulty with the camera loading up; it seems to have a faulty connection somewhere though I'm sure this is not a fault on all U600s.

    The slide feature is smooth and when it is open it is stable enough though when closed it is a little wobbly. Battery life seems to be fine.

    As other people have mentioned, the alarm does not go off if you have the phone on silent which was a little bit of a shock!

    It's a nice looking phone and I expect the problems I have had are mostly a one off however I was not willing to risk it by exchanging it for one of the same! Hope this is useful for people considering the U600 as their next phone!

              ---Quesrion about battery for u600---

              Ok, now i know that the battery för d900 isn't compatible with the u600-phone!

              But what about other batteries for Samsung-cells, is any battery compatible with u600?

              Or do someone know what "kind" of standard-battery i should buy for my u600 cellphone?
              So that i can get it frm Ebay or similar.. :)

                You CAN NOT load games from PC to this phone.(like all Samsung phones). If you want to do so, buy Nokia or Sony.

                              Yes i think it will work even with phone off.
                              The snooze should be set to about 7minutes!

                                Hi, i got this phone the other day and really like it. I'd highly reccomend it to people who are considering it. The touch buttons take awhile to get used to but are much better than any other touch sensitive buttons i've used on previous handsets...

                                Anyway I have a question and any help would be greatly appreciated. Does anyone know if its possible to transfer mobile games from my PC to the phone using the data cable, I can't seem to find any folder that I would transfer them to. Thanks in advance

                                  1) Does the alarm work when the phone is switched off?

                                  2) Does the alarm have a snooze function? If so, for how many minutes?

                                      hi people

                                      can you answer me 2 questions on this phone as i am hearing different things!

                                      1) does the phone have a radio?
                                      2) can you use your own headphones with it, does it come with an adapter or can you only use samsung phones as in the D900
                                      3) Is this phone significantly better than the D900 (apart from looks)?

                                      Thanks
