Bunnx - with regards to the Bluetooth you need to make sure that your Bluetooth visibility is set to on and the default setting is to make your phone invisible

        im also facing the same problem as gary. whenever i use wallpaper of my own, the wallpaper only fills up about three quarter of the screen.
        Above the the time and date, there is a white empty patch.

          I found a way to upload Java apps. & games onto the z500!
          Go to http://www.community24.net/ota.php on your PC.You can upload your .jar file there and it will give you a URL that you can type into your phone's browser to download that game! Simple.

          Many new phones bar you from uploading Java software via cable/Bluetooth - they want to cut down on piracy.So your phone can only reveive games etc. via internet.

          Here is a geat website with over 400 FREE java games and programs for the z500 http://www.getjar.com/software/SGH_Z500/ You can browse this on your PC and when you see a game you want, you click on it and it will give you a code you type in when browsing wap.GetJar.com (click on quick download).
          Hope this is helpful. Cheers.

                    hi

                    love this little phone, have swapped to 2g and battery much better,

                    how do you get photos onto computer, or print them.

                    Never wanted to do this before but have some really nice pics

                    cheers

                      the video camera records for 60 mins, but there is an option where you can change the amount it records for so you can send videos through mms

                          Ive had awful problems with the volume. The phone is very faint so I have to shout to be heard and the ringtone is so low even on the highest volume

                            I bought the z500 4 months ago uptil now I cannot browse with it: what am I doing wrong?
                            It came with Standard battery which runs out on you when needed most: is there a double strenght battery for this phone and where can one buy?

                                This is a lousy phone. Avoid it.
                                VERY DISSAPOINTED with lack of some features that seem to be standard on other models and brands.
                                Performs badly in all areas too.
                                I wasted my money.

                                  Not a good phone.
                                  I was initially pleased with the phone despite poor battery life and some of the other small issues as mentioned by many people.
                                  However, I could not find a way to access/download SMSs from my phone using the PC software. I have since spoken to Samsung Austrlia who have told me that the Z500 does not allow SMSs to be accessed/downloaded from your PC. This is ridiculous as every other phone I have had in the past 3 years of several brands allow this - including other Samsungs. I will be moving away from Samsung now. In my opinion, don't go for this phone - there are better 3G options available out there.
