I am getting that preview error aswell, but closing the flap to 90 degress and selecting take photos seems to stop it, you have to do it each time though?? Mine may not be a serious as others or could be a bit of luck but give it a go!!

I have used this Samsung cellphone and it's a major upgrade to my old Samsung V200C. The fact that there are decent ringtones is a big bonus. Also there is JAVA on this handset and that games do work.

Hey when i start my camera to take a photo it says preview Error, can anyone tell me how to stop this so i can take pictures?

i cant understand, why when you buy this phone from certain retailers, the usb data cable, which you NEED to transfer photos and numbers etc, isnt included in the package!!!! Its all well having infrared but thats no good for photos. These cables ive seen cost a fortune and i dont see why we should spend £30 on a cable when its cost us loads to buy the handset itself! The only other way in which you can transfer ur pics from your fone to a PC ive found is by sendin an MMS to an email address, but again thats costing 30p or more per pic and when you've got 100 or so photos, you dont want to be using up all your credit for that!!

A good fone to start with but definitely not worth the money!! Spend £200 on it when it was first brough out, what a big mistake that was! And this isn't my first one! I had to change my first fone after 10 days, cuz the camera had already starting packing up.
Must admit its been thru the wars, dropped in the sink once, thought it was finished but after bein dried with a hairdryer it worked fine. Been dropped a few too many times, by accident of cors and camera and screen was ok but the strange thing is its just packed up and all i did was open the fone to read a text messgae! Screen has completely gone!! Front display is fine but when you open it, it either flashes a white screen or its totally black. Such a disappointment. My sister bought one exaxtly the same, at the same time and hers went the same way! We've only had it a year!!!
Loved this fone when i first bought it.
Camera is fantastic quality, good design etc but ive never come across a phone which breaks dwn so quickly. Anyone thinking of buying one of these, my advice to you is don't!! There seems to be a common prob with these phones and thats the screen. Now after a year ive got to go out again and look for another fone and just hope in another twelve months i wont be doin the same thing!!! Us students need all the money we've go for other things! We dont want to have to keep wasting it on phones that dopnt work! Samsung sort it out!!

Is there a conspiracy going on??
I bought 2 E700 cameras 20 months ago from the Link.
1 from Tmobile on 12 month contract.
1 from O2 pay & go which went back 3 times with the same problem before they fixed it.
We went to Thailand this year and bought local cards so we could use the phones there.
Came back this month and decided to both go on Virgin as we liked the bundle offer.
So far both cameras worked fine on any cards in both countries.
3 days ago my wife switched her phone off while she was in a meeting and when she turned it back on again had the white screem problem on the inner display.
We were quoted £40 to repair it from a local shop.
The wierd thing is I decide to let her borrow my E700 while hers is getting fixed.
She put her sim card in my phone and switched it back on.
My phone screen went white as well.
Could it be coincidence that my ribbon just became loose at exactly the same time?
What are the odds of that.
I went to the Link where we bought both phones and sim cards from.
The shopgirl (who I think was traing to be company lawyer or chief engineer or her dad owns Virgin) almost called me a liar when I told her.
In her "4" years experience she had never seen a sim card that could possibly affect two phones.
To prove it she put the card in a brand new E720 and showed me it working.
I am going to give her the address of this forum to read!!
So I will look at this problem logically.
I have two identical products (E700) one works fine the other not.
I take a component (sim card) from the broken E700 and transfer it to the good E700.
The good now behaves in exactly the same way as the broken one.
The only common denominator is the component.
Could a problem in the sim card have "shorted out the E700 software?
Having read a lot of messages I tried to check the cable m,yself first.
I took the screws out but I was scared to break the back off.
Can anyone tell me how to get the back off?
Does the spring clip have to come off first and if so how?
cheers for any help anyone can give.
Has anyone who has this inner display problem tried the sim in another E700?
because I am going to contact Samsung about this
please email me and (or) respond on the
forum.
