    Well, I got the phone on x-mas... and I'm not very satisfied coz of two aspects, but I don't want to change it for another anyways! About using the phone, you just need to read the instructions! For example, about the upside-down photos, there's the side buttons that puts the photos upside-right! Hey, just look for it!! Come on people, do you really think that Samsung is stupid enough to put a routable camera to take upside-down photos? Come on! I think it's just laziness...
    But... I agree about the battery... but hell.. all 3G phones have low battery life! If you want better life time battery, get a non-3G phone! Or, as me, buy a spare!
    As for mp3, use the pc studio to transfer music to the phone, or use Infrared port or Bluetooth... But I just wished I could use my mp3 for message rings…
    Regards.

        cara/paul,
        Install the software disc that comes with the phone,that will install Samsung PC studioline 2.1.Once installed,follow the following.Activating Bluetooth PC Studio 2.1
        1) Connect Phone To USB Lead
        2) De-Activate Bluetooth On The Phone
        3) Put Phone Back To Main Menu
        4) Open Up PC Studio on the PC
        5) Wait,Wait a bit more
        6) Connected Phone Sign Appears On PC by the taskbar.
        7) Drag And Drop Files
        8) When Finished Re-Enable Phone Bluetooth.Hope that helps.Nick.

          To correct the picture prior to taking it use the 2 keys on the left hand side of the phone,that will flip the picture.Nick.

            Hi Paul :)

            Did you not get instructions with the phone? You might want to go to the Samsung webpage and type Z140 in the search box. On the right hand top corner there is an icon that says Download Manual or something similar. You should find how to get mp3 files transfered onto the phone via the PC software in there. Have you found that your battery needs charging all the time? It makes me a little mad, I'm at uni and theres not many places that i can charge my phone. Also, I turn my phone off for a lecture and when I turn it on the phone sometimes it can't find my SIM card or it comes up with emergency service only or asks for my code. Can anyone help me with taking a picture. When I look into the screen the picture is upside down. I take it anyway and the picture in the folder is upside down too. HELP PLEASE. I've read the manual, the settings are right.

                  General Public dosen't know stuff about cell phones and should stick to engineering. You just take the photo thats upside down and go to the photo folder, click on the photo, turn it the right way and save it. Simple! Hes missing calls because he talks nonsense

                    I agree with General Public. He/she makes some good points. My fone only holds its battery life for about a day only. I always get this message Emergency Service Only. I have to keep turning it off to reboot it then it sometimes doesn't find my SIM card. Very disappointing fone. Don't buy one.

                      To me, the Samsung Z140 from a point of sale is misleading, backed by bunch of rubbish published and distributed through publishing resources. The Z140 has a maximum battery life of 2 days IF you don't touch it. If you use your phone for general use, it will need to be charged daily but if you use the phone for business use like I do, then don't forget your charger, you'll need to charge it at lunch. If you have enough battery to take photo's, you'll be looking at the screen upside down, and of course, the photo comes out upside down too. There are very little features in this phone that aren't in competitive phones.
                      As an engineer, I purchased the phone to make/receive calls and take site photos. I’ve missed calls and had the phone drop out due to used up battery or loss of service. So, my advice is to you is to stay clear of the Z140 because honestly it will cause frustration and importantly, the phone in my opinion is not fit for its intended use. At work, my ex-Nokia got full bars, this Z140 barely gets 1 bar.

                        Yes YOU CAN have mp3's as ringtones. I have done it on my phone. You simply download them to the music folder on the phone and set as ringtone - simple.

                          for people who want to turn 3g off go to the main menu and choose settings. now go to connectivity then network settings. choose network mode and change the selection from UMTS to GSM 900/1800 this will deactivite it and to get it back on choose UTMS

                            its a really good phone accept it takes a while to load and you cant have mp3's or real tones set as your sms/mms ringtone. only for video/voice calls :-( you can only have pollyphonic :-( and there isnt a good 3g signal so i set it to 2.5g :-)

                                      I have just got this phone and on first impressions think it seems good but I am concerned about the battery life. Please can someone tell me how to turn off the 3G function. I have tried going into connections to change the network setting to gprs as someone had said but don't have the GPRS option. Can anyone help? Please !
