to change from 3G mode, u need to go into your main menu, then:
1) Settings
2) Network Settings
3) Connectivity
4) Network Mode
Change to GSM.

Have you thought about changing your mode to GSM Mode, to save battery life? if you dont use 3G the turn 3G off!!!!

have had this phone for 3 months, the battery life is poor, doesnt last a full day and i dont even use it on the 3g network, very bad, i contacted samsung they said the battery life was shorter cause its a 3g phone? which is fair enough but the phone isnt used on 3g and somedays is just switched on and doesnt take a single call and still needs charging up at the end of the day, dont bother, nokia or sony erricson have much better battery life

For those that they like the shape of E700, the Samsung Z500 it is the best by far 3G small mobile that you can buy. In Cyprus where we have 3G it is an excellent choice and Soundtech is selling them a lot. If ones like a bit bigger then Samsung Z300 is an excellent option.
In regards to T-Flash, Samsung Z500 can use T-Flash MMC cards and we are selling them with 256MB or 512MB. The new name of T-Flash 512MB it can be found as MicroSD.

I'm 1 of those lucky 1's that got a major upgrade. Had a e700 now z500.
This phone is great, havn't had a problem yet.
This phone gives the user lots of flexability when it comes to customizing.
Does any one know how to play music and then access the other phones features while the music plays.
There is a trick that you can do for the d500(not sure for other phones) that allows you to play mp3z and use the other features.
email me if you have a question or even better and answer to my minor problem.

I know many have asked this before, but how do I get the RexNet unbranded firmware? I have tried the samsungseriez.com as suggested but I cannot work out my way round the Spanish site. Also, how do I get the Vodafone settings for internet/gprs etc so that I can reestablish connections once I install new firmware? Many thanks for any help.

Vodafone Australia has now released their 3G Video call service.
I've got a Z500 which originally had TIM software on it which has since been updated to RexNet with no branding.
I'm trying to get the Video Call to work - I've changed the simcard (to a 3G compatible, from Vodafone), changed the network mode back to "automatic" from GSM 900/1800.
The phone is finding the 3G network (marked by a "3G" symbol in the top left hand corner of the screen", however when I dial a number to make a call, the phone says "dialling", but nothing else happens.
I've got the correct Vodafone Live settings for GPRS also.
Does anyone have any ideas as to how I may be able to get the phone to work for video calls? Any other settings I may need to change that I haven't already? Any help would be much appreciated - I'm trying desperately to get it to work. Thanks

I have recently updated my firmware, but have made a slight mistake. I have uploaded Orange firmware to a Vodafone phone. The phone works, but I have lost all the settings for browser etc. Does anyone know of an easy way to reinput all of my settings or have a source for the latest Vodafone firmware? Any help would be gratefully received.

Dado_tz - I have been a Nokia fan all my life, but I have to say I'm very impressed with this phone, once you switch the 3G off until you need it the reception is spot on and it has many features. Definately worth it
