I have been using the SGH I550 since last 6 months and am very happy with it....., though i have a problem. When my office Wireless Lan (3com router) internet connection was in unsecure mode , i could easily connect to the internet, view websites,Download, read e-mails etc ..., but since i changed the security mode to WPA/WP2 ...I am not able to connect at all. I have access point also... I have input the pre-shared key also but but it does not help. The asteriks which appear in the key box does not change.
Though when i access a unsecure network it is ok.
I restored to factory setting and tried again but it is the same problem....Please somebody advise me..Thankx

Then go to "network" settings
If u want both 3g and GSM then select "Dual Mode" or if u want only 3g then select UMTS or only edge or gprs then select GSM

YZour problem will be solved

I didn't find any direct mention of re-mapping the gps and media keys, so is it possible to change programs behind these buttons?

Thank You,

Why is the sound on my i550w doesn't match the n81? even though all sites say it has good quality but when i heard music on n81, sound on i550 was way too low on full volume. Is it just my phone or is it normal? If yes any ways to increase the volume?

How can we disable the message sound that sounds during "send communication message" (while checking balance eg: *666#)? cause it is irritating.

Thanks

Just purchased this phone last weekend, and with the help of SR, I have already flashed the phone with the latest firmware...

So far so good.. it's just too bad it does not support Chinese anymore in the new firmware

Am cumparat si eu un tel I550 din Portugalia. Are innstalat Navigon 6. Am primit si un CD cu toate hartle di europa.
|Problema e ca am incercat sa il activez si dupa ce se conecteaza la net imi zice: 'check serial number'.
Am pus serial number depe cutia telefonului.
Cum sa fac sa mearga GPSul? Cum pot sa ii upgradez softul?
Mersi mult!
Florin
