samsung x700 supports micro sd AKA t-flash.you can upgrade upto 1gb .
i am giving youa hint to store more audio songs
just download jet audio basic then click on convert then adjust 64 kbps.at high quality settings you can get best audio quality while size is 40% lower
you can make new folder by pressing menu key on any song and then just say make new folder

    To damaged
    The MP3 player has only one music list which can take only 50 files and you can't create more lists. So to solve this,create folders on your memory cards like ( love Songs, hot music, Indian songs, Quraan. etc. and put in each folder 50 songs sinse list accet only 50 song. Go to list add the songs of one folder. If you want to listen to another folder, go to the list remove the songs on the list and add the new from another folder. It is so easy and won't take time.

    Another solution, is you can join each group of Music (lets us say all slow music, even if each group more than 50) in one large file
    and then you can add all there large files to the list and you can select the setting to repeat each file, or all files, or not to repeat.

      Guys I would like to know one thing...

      I read that the X700 can store only 50 mp3s in one folder...

      Is that true????Cause I just ordered a 1GB mem card...
      I am a music-freak,so I prefer to give a little extra $$$ than down the quality.
      But if it's only 50...Can't you make new folders???

      Please advise!!!

        to irfan
        i think that you should use vcd cutter v4.0
        you have to buy origional because evaluation mode dont allow you to convert anything more than 7 seconds.
        open vcd cutter
        then click on tools then split system stream to m1v,mp3.
        then select mpg or dat file and destination then click on split now.
        then download free jet audio basic then convert it to 64 kbps at high quality this will improve audio quality because you are taking audio from video source then just upload mp3 file to your lovely x700 by bluetooth it is really fast compared to usb data cable
        hey man cannot give any information for playing videos in full screen because x700 dont have any symbian os just wait for firmwares if they can provide any facility to play video at full screen or samsung should produce samsung x700i to remove this big mistake

                To Mubarak Aljowder:
                I have used Streambox Ripper software. Yes, it decreased the file size from 4.1MB to 0.77MB at your suggested settings but it reduced the sound quality also. I mean, file properties shows stereo sound but actually it is mono.
                There is a big difference between original and output mp3 file.
                As Samsung X700 cannot put more than 50 MP3 songs in one folder, your mp3 file joiner solution may be acceptable. I have made an MP3 Player software with capabilities of mp3 file cutter/merger, mp3 encoder (CD to MP3), ID3 tags editor and many more. If anyone is interested, I will send to him at free.It’s size is 2.64MB only.It is not a commercial product as i have made it for my own use!

                  There is a program called ( MP3 splitter & joiner). you can join any number of files and make them one file specially after you reduce the sizes of the files.

                      1- MMS templates, Many Picture messages, animations.
                      2-Alarm manager: has 6 alarms with the selection of specific days of the week.

                        To. TBS
                        1- There is a program called streambox Ripper. It is reducing the size of MP3 files. I reduced each song from 5MB to 700KB which means you can get 7 to 8 times memory savings. So even if we allocate 1MB for each song you can get bout 300 songs, and leave the balance for videos, pictures ringtones and other. So I advice you not to go for more than 512MB. You can reduce files at Birate 24 KBPS. and sampling rate at 11025 Hz - stereo. you will get the same quality as before reduction. you can create more than four folders if you want.

                        2- the sound of MP3 in Maximium volume is less than Samsung D600 and Nokia N70, but it is still is good. You can buy another earphone and take it to electronic shop for TV repair and ask him to cut the small speaders and fix AV pins so that you can connect the AV pins to TV or HiFI and listen to very loud music as will as radio. I did this and I am happy with it. The earphone comming with the phone is a specail one for Radio and the sound of the radio is the hiest among all phones. I tried othe earphone, but the reception of the radio become less.

                        3- the memory of the phone is 35Mb so the net may be 28MB always keep it free, so when you take pictures,or video or you download music, move every thing to memory card. and keep phone memory free.use phone memory for temporary storage.

                        4- if you keep memory almost free you can send even upto 14Mb easily. I am doing it.
                        There 3 ways of transferring files.
                        a) via Bluetooth
                        b) remove the memory card and insert it in the adabtor and insert in the card reader.
                        c) this new feature only in samsung X700 and I think may be in Sanmung I300. Go to Menu > phone setting > USB settings and select mass storage, and connect the phone to the PC through USB cable, it will open the memory card and will serve as external disk so you can drag and drop files.

                            To irfan:
                            Select menu….settings…..security…..privacy (9.8.5) and select images folder. After press OK , you must enter phone’s password which is eight digit number “ 00000000” by default. That’s it. You have successfully locked the images folder. My advise is that you must change the default password to any 4 to 8 digit password which you can easily remember. To change the default password , select menu….settings….security….change password (9.8.4) This could avoid anyone to change the password.
                            To hari :
