Guys, I've got a little problem, hope someone can help
I have transferred a load of albums onto my Innov8 using Media transfer. I dragged and dropped them into my music folder.
However, I can't access any of this music through my Media Gallery - the albums folder is showing as empty, but when I go into File Manager, then Mass storage, then into my music folder, the albums are all there - but it won't play them from this folder as full albums, it just plays individual tracks - I have to go back to the menu and choose the next track every time one finishes. I'm beginning to get a little annoyed now!!!
I know it'll probably be something simple that I'm not doing right, so can one of you phone gurus please put me out of my misery!!!!
Cheers!

I have one question, does the i8510 support java multitasking?
In other words, can you minimize a java app, and read your messages, access the camera, etc.
Or even open a second java application, like with more recient SE phones?
I frequently use a java based im client, and need to know whether, it is possible before I buy, I know previous samsung phones were incapable of that.

brynn, 08 Feb 2009left it on standby fully charged at 1.20am sunday morn and just checked it now 7.35pm and its ... moreHey brynn. Them two dotted arrows under signal bar does not affect the battery. I have them too. Believe it or not. i charged mine last sunday, am doing stanby battery test on it first to see battery gives good charge and is given accurately by battery meter. Mine is entering 9th day on minimal usage.
a few txt msgs, a misscall or two, and picture taken with camera (only one, since am doing standby test)
guess what. the battery meter still shows 4 bars on entering 9th day, lol
dont know what that factory reset did to handset but its looking promising at moment.
But yeah, those dotted lines with E below signal bar does not affect battery for me.

samsung fan, 09 Feb 2009How long the battery life in your current used? for standard used, can the battery hold up to ... more I have done a lot of battery reports earlier but heres an update,,
Non stop full screen video full blast earfones 5hrs 15 mins
Non stop music on rock setting on volume 9 11hrs 30 mins
heavy use start at 7.30am of 12 minutes fone calls 12 texts sent/ recieved 3 mmss recieved and read all with delivery reports..over 2 hrs mp3 volume 9,,drifters video 30 mins,,web 20 mins,,plus some meddling with settings got me near to bedtime with 3 bars left,,got me up in morning with 20 min fone call and seem to die about 12pm.
light use should last 2 days but could not swear to 3,,it seems good for a heavy days use and then on charge at night ..
That last report on just leaving it to run down i had brightness auto,, on plus powersaving mode on,, plus them stupid bars below signal strength meter in semi-full lines that stay their till you go online then disconnect,,
Them staggered lines are supposed to disappear when you set gprs mode to "when needed" from "when available" but it does not with me????
Does anyone think their is a battery leakage fault???
Last night was reading into xperia update and even tho it has 1500mA battery plus 10hr talktime plus 833hrs standby it lasted me 9.5hrs on heavy use..The innovate lasts about same as n95 8gb i had but cant tell for sure..I am either doing tests or playing with xperia update,,
Any hows took innovate off charge at 8am and sent/ recieved 2 texts and recieved /read 2 mms...will post tonight or whenever today what i used it for and battery level status,,it is a really superb smartfone it just needs an update i think and waiting till samsung apps store starts..bye for now,,,

I am thinking of buying this phone but could anyone tell me how the GPS works? Can I use my TomTom software with this phone or do I have to buy a map subscription?
Thanks in advance
