I purchased one galaxy beam but it was having no google play. Then I purchased another one but it was having the network problem. It often displayed the "circle" sign right on the spot where the signals icon is located and whenever I tried to make a phone call or send an SMS it reported "not registered on network" or "Insert Sim Card to access network services". I must also mention here that one of my close friends who firstly introduced the galaxy beam, has also the same problem. So galaxy beam is a fairly attractive phone though, but it has these problems and the company or manufacturer "SAMSUNG" must take notice of it and remove such defects.

              I have some problems with my Beam.
              At some point, out of the blue I can't make or receive phone calls. Phone is on, it shows full signal, but nothing. When someone calls me, it tells the person my phone is off. The only way I can fix it is by restarting the phone. Did factory reset, same thing.Does anyone else have this problem? I think I should take it to warranty

                                about batteries :) I just left the phone idling for 5 days after it's been fully charged - quess how much battery it still has after 5 days ? It has 81% left !!! so I guess another 10 days in idling mode are easy :D Battery is nice , don't argue .

                                    Andra, 16 Mar 2013did you solve this problem? i have sam problem.Hi, Andra,

                                    No I haven't solved. Returned the first one by warranty, got the second one - the problem persists.
                                    It means all beams have the same problem. I just keep now auto, don't choose GSM.. 3G works fine,it's always available in city, and if I will be sometimes in forest, hope GSM won't let me down for couple hours... :/
