Phone with two irritating issues.
Battery really useless. Last only few hours and oblige you to carry extra stuff with you.

Contact. When you look for a contact I do not understand why came out not the names with the initial letter selected but all the names coinating such letter.

So I'm using At&t service and was able to install the internet gprs settings for this phone. Having the toughest time getting the MMS to work. Anyone with any helpful info? These are the links I used for the internet, but the MMS stuff doesn't work and isn't very clear on these sites.

Can you change easily the language of the system in this phone? Eg. From German to English.

Anyone using this phone in India as a substitute for Blackberry?
I talked to Hutch, Airtel and Reliance and they don't seem to approve of this phone on their Blackberry service?
Help Anyone!!

Except the battery issue, which is really irritating, Samsung i320 is worth the money! Features, looks, performance all are just suberb. I seriously think that Samsung needs to re-engineer its battery technology a big time. The phone on a standyby mode doesn't even last 12 hours, with limited voice and sms use only.

Justin,

To set up the push email, do the following:

1. Go into ActiveSync (green icon)
2. Click menu
3. Click 2. Schedule
4. Set device to sync "As items arrive"

This will "push" emails to the device as they arrive. You may also want to adjust your peak and off peak times.

This Phone is absolutly the best phone i ever had - the qwerty keyboard is great, work well with one hand or two... the screen is amazingly clear and sharp - colours are top notch...
Hadn't had the chance to connect to Email yet, however - syncing with outlook is a dodle (using the data usb cable, which also charges the phone)...

Blootooth is a bit dissapointing - has had problems connecting phone to sync via blootooth... (but that could be just me)

Samsung i320N

I was playing with this phone since we got it in the office,

Its been amazing, there are no problems with it at all & couldnt find any difference between the i600 & i320 at all,


fonts are so pretty on it, & pictures are well for a 1.3 camera,


the scroll button on the side gives you the feeling as if its a blackberry, and phone is not big as other blackberries or nokia e61
which I really liked it.


Any Questions

Setting your own ring tone.

Yeh, I actually know how to do this.

Make your music into a Wav file. It has to be aWAV.

Place the WAV file into windows. Upload the WAV file into a folder on your phone via the Sync or by Bluetooth.

Go into that folder. From the Menu select the WAV file by a tick. From Edit do CUT.

Then go back to start and go to file manager, then go to Windows. Once you’re in this folder Paste the Wav file anywhere.

Go to the file and press ENTER button on your hpne, the silver little ball. Follow the instructions to make it a tone ringer.



Enjoy.

Hi

I got this phone recently, great phone!!! Just one question, how can I set it up to browse internet via internet explorer? I have got my Edge/GPRS settings and can browse via GPRS browser.

Also, email setup to outlook, how do I go about this task?

I also have MP3's on the mem card and want to use them as ringtone, how do I do this?

The phone works great. I had to call t-mobiles PDA tech support to help me set it up, but no problems. go on any web site when set up properly.

had it for 2 month now, i feel the keyboard needs to be pressed very very hard although good quality, but it makes typing a much slower and tiresom task. i miss my soft treo keyboard which i already sold it, i was really fast on 650. i switch back to my p990i after 3 weeks. no COPY and PASTE function which are a standard on any symbian one. very limited softwares range. build quality is superb. very good one handed navigation system with lots of extra useful software built-in. it superficially looks very attractive, good to show off to other people. perfect if u use it as a phone ONLY. otherwise no wirth buying it. not good for a real PDA user. they will find it very limited funtionalities built-in although its got a full keyboard. im more of a PDA user than phone user. i use it for internet. any other who wanna use this mainly as a phone plus some pda uses can buy it, but remember to hide a spare battery with u at all time, it doesnt last long enough for many long calls at all. only 800mhz capacity battery. the battery can drop from 90% to 85% in 1 or 2 minute talk. what i mean is that battery doesnt drop like this: 90% then 89% then 88% then 87%.... it drop like this instead: 90% then 85% then 82% then 77%, in just a few minutes with heavy usage like opera mini and internet browser! astonishing for me! i will hide this one inside my drawer to gather dust around it. dont recommend it if u r mainly a PDA user who wanna try wm smartphone. without the touchscreen, everything is lacked in flexibily. but it does include one of the best handling of phone apps for phone usage, very quick and easy look up of contacts. its somehow application locked from the factory for no reason. and the main problem is that it doesnt have office editing software included. very sad... but the whole system stability is one of the stablest one i ever had. treo 650 crashed every hour, n93 crashed once in 2 to 3 day, p990i automatically shut apps like opera and messaging to recover the ram, frustrating sometimes. but i320n very seldom crashed on me!! this is absolutely and totally true on me!! im so surprised by its stability. even with 20 apps heavily running at the back ground it is still ok but just a bit slow, with no crash at all! im actually writing this letter now using my i320n, it wasted 50 percent of my battery! it sounds a bit unrealistic, but its true. providing a spare battery is a bonus, but its actually a useless effort from samsung to attract more people to buy this. most people will not be bothered to charge the battery every day or every 6 hours. dont be fooled by the 2.2 inch, its actually the brightest one and clear. one of the best screen, in line with treo and n93. the letters and pictures are clearly seen and shaped, it doesnt look small at all. screen has proper viewing angle as well. and perfectly visible under DIRECT sun! the whole system is very fast, with fast responses, noticeable when playing movie, even those 480x360 movie with high bit rate can be played properly on this one with few lags!! crazy!! i was shocked ! even my treo 650 cant manage to do this! it is true that size and look arent everything if the functionality and usability is not up to the standard and expectation, no matter it is the slimmest and sturdiest PDA in the world.
i think i already listed all the advantages and disadvantages of this phone. hopefully! hope u guys enjoy or comment further. -harry
