2) I don't think you are able to change the colour of the display menu...
I CAN! there are 4 options blue green orange/red and purple
4) I believe the languages the phone offer depends on where the phone was bought in.
well samsung always offers lods of languages id doesnt matter for which market the phoen wil be released, for example polish is always as one of the factory build in languages
8) You can save your contacts only in your phone, by clicking on the phonebook, and selecting "Management", clicking on the first option to change your settings!
U can choose to save a contact into ur simcard, u can copy all contacts from simcard to phoen and vice versa

had this phone for a while and to be honest it really is a solid performer. might not be able to compete with some newer phones but i don't care. it does what it does and does it well.
apparently it has a speaker :-)
enough said
peace

hi!
if someone wishes his phone to ring and vibrate simultaneously, than you have to download special tones for it (MMF type).
i think this wount be deemed as commercial:

Here are some of the questions answered:
1) If you download the Samsung PC Studio, it will come with a Multimedia Manger, which can be used to convert a video (say wmv) to 3gp or mp4. You can download the phone's program at Samsung's Digital World - Global Download Center.
2) I don't think you are able to change the colour of the display menu; it's set to blue. As for the display picture, you can enlarge the icture by pressing the side buttons (for volume too) and then setting it as the display picture. The part you enlarged to will become your display picture.
3) The music quality is fair; although when compared with SE and Nokia phones, its' quality may not seem much, and also, sometimes files cannot be read. Files with long names are not accepted either!
4) I believe the languages the phone offer depends on where the phone was bought in.
5) As for the phone battery, I think you can try using other batteries offered for different models for Samsung. I think D900 works, but ask for more information!
6) Cell phone chains can be put on the top right side of the phone, which is at a very discreet place - not too obvious or flashy.
7) Although it seems to advertise for girls, I've seen many males owning the E870! =)
8) You can save your contacts only in your phone, by clicking on the phonebook, and selecting "Management", clicking on the first option to change your settings!
9) Yes, you can transfer the songs downloaded into the computer to your phone by connecting both pc and phone with the included USB cord, or inserting your memory card (not included). Download the Samsung PC Studio first when connecting via USB cord though!
10) The phone has a phone security and phone privacy, as in it will require a password whenever you click the buttons (not number pad), OR clicking your files and/or your messages.
While everyone has their own preferences for cell phones, I think you should take a while to research on the phone before buying it, to see if you will be satisfied with it! The phone is elegant and simple, with many basic functions. There's not a lot of room offered for customization (as in themes) though!

It won't ring and vibrate at the same time, but it will vibrate for a few seconds (quite a strong vibration) and then ring afterwards.

There is NO EDGE on the E870. Samsung has lied to everyone. Check your speeds and it will show GPRS speeds and not EDGE speeds. It is 4 times as slow as my other EDGE phone and there is no EDGE option in the data menu. Very sad.

Answers to 2 of the questions....
1) if your phone wont accept multimedia it's to do with your service provider, not the actual phone. You'll need to ring whichever service provider you're with and they will set it up for you, usually takes around 24 hours.
2) no you can't use mp3 tones for message tones. Unfortunately the only messages tones you can use are the ones that are set in the phone. Not brilliant but it's one of those things. That's the only thing i don't like about this phone, the fact you can't have different message tones, but it's one tiny thing, the whole phone itself is fab!! :)

i can't receive multimedia messages...when someone sends me a multimedia message..my phone says"unable to retrieve multimedia message". Is this because of a setting on the phone or is it my phone service?

i got the phone as a gift few days ago, thought it will have average or bad quality sound but when i used mp3 player with the headphones on.. IT SOUNDS SURPRISELY GOOD, or course its not a music destined phone like some SE or nokia 5300 tho the mp3 player is ok, and it snot true i cant listen to the mp3 player when the phone is closed!!!
