Nevermind, I called Tmobile. Talk to Tmobile Technical Support: Unsupported Devices or Advanced Solutions team. The quick fix was to change the band connection. To do this, go to Start - Settings - Phone - Band Connection - Current Band: PCS 1900 - Works only inside Americas: Yes. Then go back to Settings. Then to Phone - More - Networks - Network Selection: Manual - Menu: Find a New Network. Once it is done searching and finds a network, it may appear as Cingular Wireless instead of Tmobile. It is fine, it will just be named Cingular but will be using your Tmobile network.

I just got this phone, never having used a smartphone before and unaware of how to use it. Would anyone be willing to help me get started? I am using T-Mobile. I don't know which plan to sign on with - $5.99 T-Mobile Web? Currently I do not have a web plan. Also, the SIM card is inserted, but the phone cannot find a signal. How do I even get started? Sorry I am such a NOOB!

Eric,
The browser is extremely slow with TMobile, even though I have edge, and subscribe to T Mobile Total Internet for $29, and it is not compatible with a lot of major websites. The Nokia E61 is a much better option. You can get a faster internet connection, a better browser, and the best part about it is, you don't even need the total interent package, you just need T-Zones for $5.99 and it picks up the internet via Edge. Also, the batter on the Samsung i320n sucks. It will get drained within 8-10 hours, of normal use.

Hey, for those of you'll trying to set up the MMS feature with the Samsung i320n with TMobile, here are the Settings.
Go to MMS/SMS-Menu-MMS Options-MMS Profiles-Menu-New-Profile Name (Tzones GPRS)-MMSDC URL: 216.155.174.84/servlets/mms - Check Proxy - IP Address 216.155.165.50 - Port 9201 - Bearer GPRS - Menu - Advanced - APN wap.voicestream.com - Leave Username and Password Blank - DNS 1: 0.0.0.0 - DNS 2: 0.0.0.0 Done Exit Out

It worked for me. If it doesn't work, call T Mobile Tech Support, Unsupported Devices. They should be able to help.

Had this phone for a couple of weeks. I'm not that impressed by it. Just the design is neat. I use it with T-Mobile in the US. Extremely slow internet connection, considering it has Edge, and I have and Edge connection. A lot of web pages don't open up, and a lot of them you can't navigate properly. Inferior Windows Explorer Browser. Not a lot available in terms of software, although it is a Window's Mobile 5.0 Device. Skype won't work on it. Opera browser for Windows Mobile won't either. And remember, just because some software is compatible with Window's Mobile 5.0, does not necessarily mean it will be compatible with this device. Battery life could be better, although they do provide an additional battery. MSN and Yahoo Mobile work fine. User friendly POP and IMAP mailbox setup feature. No WIFI, No VOIP, terrible browser, and a slow operating system, that often freezes up. Camera is totally ordinary.
My other phone is a Nokia E61, and it just blows this Samsung away. With the E61, all in need is to subscribe to the $5.99 T Zones plan, and it picks up a fast internet connection, where I can surf the web just like I do on my desktop, full HTML, unlike the Samsung which is XHTML. Far superior display in the E61, higher resolution. VOIP, SIP features. Much faster and user friendly operating System. I can make internet calls anywhere in the world for free, when I configured it with pbxes and gizmo: as long as there is WIFI. The E61 is also about $100 cheaper than the Samsung. All in all, this phone is neat if you want to make a fashion statement.

The picture on the left is of the i320. If you ordered the i320N then you'll get the one that is more angular in shape. It also has round buttons which are similar in layout to the Motorola Q. In my opinion the i320N looks better, but that of course is up to each owner.

i'm confused as to which pics are the i320 and i320n. i know one is a little longer thant the other, but dont know which. I believe the i320n has all black, round buttons. is that correct? and the i320 has the white numbers? just ordered the i320n thinking it was the one shown on this page which i prefer, but starting to think i'll be stuck with the round buttons.

SbSpecV -

Text messaging worked right out of the box for me, however MMS messaging needed some different settings. I don't have those on me right now, but I'll find out and get back to you. I'll also see if there is any kind of setup for SMS messages...

What's up?

Anonymous-

If you are using a Windows Mobile 5.0 Smartphone like the i320, it comes equipped with ActiveSync which will allow you to sync Outlook calendars, contacts, tasks, email etc. For the initial setup, you will need to have a wired connection, but after that the sync can occur wirelessly whenever you want. (this is assuming you have an Outlook Exchange Server) As far as syncing via bluetooth, I have not tried that as it is faster to just plug in the phone. And in reality, it can be set up to use your wireless connection to sync information from anywhere you have service, as opposed to only within 30ft of your computer.
