briggy, 26 Jun 2009hey star masters (devindra, king, andyr, etc), whats the max size we can send via bluetooth? ... moreyeah sending large files via bluetooth is a problem. wen i transfer more than 20 pics from my frnd's fone to this fone (phone memory), everything is ok, but wen i transfer it to the memory card, the transfer fails sumtymes.

also, wen i move a lot of pics from phone memory to external memory, the pics get corrupted, that is, dark lines appear on the bottom of all the pics.

sending stuff via usb (mass storage mode) is a breeze and tooo fast.

friends the problem is i am using Airtel connection,, and they dont have automatic settings for samsung, so the gprs settings has to be done manually. i called the GPRS support and got the settings but its not working on my phone.
So i request anyone who has activated GPRS on their cell to pls go th the browser profile and let me know about the settings.

thanks

Dear Santhosh,

First switch off your phone then press volume key and power button simultaneously.
Phone will turn to loader mode and say “DOWNLOAD”.
Open multiloader CLICK PORT SEARCH FIRST, it will show your phone connected comm port.
Click the check button of Boot change, Full Download and Master Rom.
Boot - select your path “D:\SAMSUNG\JAYAGURU_S5230XEIE5\BOOTFILES”
Amss – select the file “apps_compressed.bin”
Rsrc1 – select the file “Rsrc_S5230_Open_Europe_Slav.rc1”
Rsrc2 – select the file “Rsrc2_S5230(Low).rc2”
Factory FS – select the file “FactoryFs_S5230_Open_Europe_Slav_RU.ffs”
And finally hit download button after completion the phone will not restart automatically, switch off and restart the phone. BE SURE AFTER FLASHING YOUR PHONE WILL BE GT-5230 AND YOU WILL LOSE YOUR WARRANTY.

santhosh, 26 Jun 2009Hi Jayaguru, when I started multiloader and locate bootfiles it popped up "unable to locate b... moreBootfiles are not necessarily needed. In fact it's better not to flash them, so, when flash fails, phone can start furthermore.

Rename the apps in amss. Just mark the file, press F2 and change the name from apps into amss. Was a mistake by publisher.
Good luck!

"REST IN PEACE, JACKO!"

is the battery on this phone invicible! - I have had mine on standby for days and have listened to a couple of songs and yet the battery bars are still showing full capacity! This phone has to have one of the best battery powers amongst them all. Maybe its because it hasnt got 3g that the battery lasts a long time between charges.

shantanu, 26 Jun 2009hello king, thanks for ur opinion, but i would like to correct some of ur pts 1.5530 has... morethanx for correcting me. i was not aware of the latest price of nokia 5530.

2.yes i agree 16 million colours are not the same as 256k colours. but i've seen 5800's and n95's display and somehow i'm of the opinion that the clarity of samsung's display is much better...

5.music on s5233 does not satisfy me after having used nokia 5300 and 5230 xpressmusic. they were faaaaar better. and with my creative ep-630 in-ear headphones, the nokia music used to blow me off.

yes symbian os sucks, i agree, but u can do so many things with it. i have'nt been able to install anything on the samsung os. also nokia pc suite was waaaay better.

anyway all d best for going with samsung star!!

Sumair, 26 Jun 2009hi everyone.....i am thinking to buy this phone, but i've 2 questions.......please if anyone c... more1.sound in loudspeaker: good. its a mono-speaker (not stereo).

in headset : nice if u use external headsets (crap on the provided headsets). still both ways it lacks surround effects and deep bass.

2.yup, u can assign separate sms tones to every contact, and also a common sms tone for each profile u select.
