Anonymous, 24 Feb 2009I dont think Hindustani will post any guide or manual. Earl... moreIf Hindoustani doesn't post his guide, well so be it.

First major problem encountered: the navigation button is coming off...Does anyone encountered this problem before? And how can I fix this?

    Hindustani, 22 Feb 2009TO : amboe, premus, Hankie Dear Friends, I've been worki... moreI dont think Hindustani will post any guide or manual. Earlier he said he had a problem with text size. Now he is saying that it is not yet ready. Isnt it confusing? I wonder how can one prepare any manual which could be better than the manual provided by the manufaturer... So guys, pls dont wait for the so called guide which is never going to happen..

        TO : amboe, premus, Hankie

        Dear Friends, I've been working my A55 off for the guide during the last 2 weekends. Forgive me for the delay, PLEASE. The one & only one problem with me is that I'm truly unable to get anything done in the C-grade and/or B-grade way. Major problem, indeed. When the A1-grade thing will be up, you all would be here to utilize and enjoy the same.

        Till then ... Be Good. Be Kind. Share Love and Peace -- NOT Lust and Violence.

            I purchased this phone a few days ago and its a good phone i must admit. The only problems i have with it is that it doesnt have menu and cancel buttons, and its battery life is extremely short, i have to charge it about twice a day. It sucks really. Ive only bought nokia phones before this one and ive decided from experience that nokia is the best, im definately going for a nokia phone next time.

                    Dear All, Please stay away from this model. I have Purchased U800 in Nov 2008 and last week it stopped working suddenly. I am from Mumbai India. I went to the Samsung service and even if it is under the warranty period, that guy asked for Rs 1500 for repairing. According to him this problem occured due to seepage of water and could not be covered under warranty. I argued a lot bcoz I know it was working on 4th night and when I got up on 5th morning the screen was blank. There is no point of water seepage. nobody did touch the phone during the night. I am going to consumer court against Samsung and will never buy any Samsung product. GSM Arena, Please publish my post so that others can also know about this incidence.

                        Dear friends, my love and respect towards GSMArena, Mobile-Review and SAMSUNG -- all of you are quite familiar with. But honestly, the text I "manufactured" is quite big. And that's why -- frankly -- I'm hesitating to post that in GSMArena forum -- no point in acting like an offending-tormenting-dictator by consuming so much of space, correct?

                        So please help me decide -- where and how to post that text.

                        BTW : Solution to Hankie's problem is also included in that. And the post by "nthgr" seems like a classic example of "Chaos Theory".

                            Hi,

                            I just bought the U800 but I have a problem with the emoticons in SMS. They are now showed as text and not as a figure. Anyone knows how to change this so I can see the real emoticon?
