              @nun: Yes, you can do both. I guess you are asking because of past experiences with samsung phones, I know that was an issue. I inform you that all Samsung handsets since '06 can be set to play your own mp3 when you receive a call/message

                                i bought this phone yesterday and i must admit that i find it very interesting so far. i am going to be honest though that this is my 1st android phone ever so i am pretty new to the android world since i was a nokia fan for years...

                                so i have a few questions.

                                how can i get android 2.3 installed

                                where can i download the best games and apps.

                                and do you mean when u say rooted

                                as i said i am pretty new to the android world so please help.

                                thanks in advance

Never had an issue with it again, but now the headphone plug has an issue, it garbles the sound and I have to press hard right on the center in the back of the phone to get back the audio on the headset.
