Samsung F480 - user opinions and reviews

Had this a day and all seems ok, However, I have a couple of questions
1. Default for texting is ABC. Is there any way to set the default to T9 predictive. It's very annoying having to change it for every text. Saying that, my old Samsung D500 had the same problem - very annoying.
2. Also, pics taken indoors with a lot of light coming into the viewfinder, tend to turn a bit orange - any advice on stopping that?

I have been looking at purchasing a Samsung F480 and have a few questions.
1. Can you take a 3 meg picture or higher with the phone and then email that picture full size, and WITHOUT reducing the file size, through an email client set up on the phone, and email it to an email address. as some phones are limited to file sizes they are capable of emailing. On my current phone 3.2meg picture is about 648 kb. And my Vodafone network will allow me to send file sizes up to 2meg.
2. I synchronize outlook, contacts, Calendar and tasks etc.
Can I dial a number stored in the subject box in Calendar entry stored on the phone. Ie appointment 10am Thursday with “mr blogs 10 The street, Bloggs Town DX3 3xp 0123456789” can I call the telephone number directly from the calendar entry stored on the phone?
3. When you synchronize contacts and calendar entries do the notes in both calendar entries and contacts synchronize and store on the phone

To all those wanting to know how to set mp3 as message tones
1) go to setting
2) phone profiles
3) Go to normal (or whatever profile you want)
4) Touch edit
Touch the mail icon at the top and scroll down and select message alert tone
5) select tone and thats it!!!!!

Umar, 09 Jun 2008Thanks, much better. Still not as fast as using the click wheel on my ipod but il get used to ... morebeware the games are a bit dodgy on this phone. i've downloaded 3d Jewel quest II, and because the game was originally designed for phones with buttons in f480 they've tried to go around this by introducing a string with touch controls at the bottom of the screen; the problem is that the touch controls cover and conceal part of the game screen. In Juwel Quest for example this means that you can't see the elapsing time you're ment to see. Haven't tried other games but looks to be an issue

Anonymous, 09 Jun 2008Hi everyone. I really like this phone, got it yesterday but have a couple of questions if any... moreso far i haven't come across any smileys while using the phone, but if you look at the phone through QPST/other similar software, there are icons/smileys inside, so maybe it is a matter of enabling them

Hi everyone. I really like this phone, got it yesterday but have a couple of questions if anyone can help? Are there any animations to add into texts apart from the rubbish punctuation ones? My old samsungs always had little men you could add. Also, is there any way of getting 'inbox' or 'create message' to be a shortcut instead of having to go in through the menu? I find that quite long winded, I think they should have put that as a widget. Thanks for the help!
