> In reply to Anonymous @ 2011-07-05 15:30 from nefr - click to readWell actually I don't intend to use it as an mp3 player,but as the ring tones are so awful on this phone I was hoping to use music from the SD card for a ring tone instead,but it's not possible with this phone unlike my last nokia,I am genuine and this phone's battery only lasts a few days longer than my nokia 3109 which is less than one tenth of the claimed time by the manufacture,yes I could have a faulty phone,but so far Samsung don't seam to want to know,their customer service is appalling unlike Nokia.

Everyone else who has the phone talks about at least three weeks of battery life, most about more than a month. You're either not genuine or your phone is broken.

I just got the phone from Amazon and started playing around. It's been six years since my last non-touchscreen-cellphone, but I'm not going to talk about that.

I have a minor correction regarding some of the reviews:

the LED-light switches on even when the cellphone is locked. Apparently it didn't in older firmware versions. It doesn't switch on when the phone is off.

The battery life is 6 days on standby or 5 with an hour of calls,where they get 67 days from is beyond me.

> In reply to David @ 2011-01-15 23:08 from vxhi - click to readhi david. i'm also from manila. just encountered these weird characters just today.
i tried to access a couple of trial java games that came with the phone to pass the time while waiting for dinner to be served. on the first 2 tries, i just got a message saying "java is unable to play the game". on the 3rd try, the phone restarted. when it prompted for the usual security password, there were already weird characters displayed. many of the menu labels have been courrupted. and also the screen alert texts.

my questions:
did you get yours fixed? how long?
is it a recurring problem for you?
did you ask the technicians what triggers this? and what can be done to prevent this (in the absence of a fix)?
is there a bug fix update already?

anyone else here who encountered the same problem?

thanks!

What attracted me to this phone was the tough design dual speakers,large keypad and long battery life,but it has a terrible user interface which is a lot more complicated to use than a Nokia,it has some really awful ring-tones,with nokia you can have music on the memory card which can be used as ring-tones,but the only way to do it on this phone is to transfer them onto the main memory which is only 3 MB,so unless it's very low quality it just can't be done,the same goes for pictures,the dual speakers are supposed to be for noisy environments,but in practice make no difference over an ordinary phone,the keys are smaller than they look in pictures,but because they are rubbery they are nice to press and the battery life so far has lasted 4 and a half days with 2 hours of calls and is still almost fully charged even though I never charged when new,this phone is nice and good for people that like them basic or to last a long time,but the user interface is terrible and having an mp3 player and camera is a total waste of time.

just bought this phone last friday. but i can't use the pictures from the SD card as wallpaper because there is no "set as" option when viewing the pics from the SD card. any body who knows how? what i do is copy the pic from the SD card to phone memory to be able to set it as wallpaper but this would diminish the phone memory.
another thing, it can't play my .3gp video files..what file formats does it support?

If you only need a phone for basic use,ie. telephone conversations, sending SMS messages and having a reliable device to wake you up in the morning, then this is the phone for you, look no further. The battery is FANTASTIC. I have been using this model for six months, and have no regrets what-so-ever.
