samsung are offering a software upgrade for the low volume problem. this volume issue appears to be only a few phones as my friend has the soul and the volume is perfect.

You cannot customize shortcuts in shortcuts menu (not on touch pad)which is activated by button over 3 key. and i meant music player in main menu. hope some new themes will be available soon with new icons.

Hi I'm wondering if there is any way to reassign soft keys? I have only managed to reassign the 4 shortcuts on the touchscreen but not for the soft keys. Thanks.

Anonymous, 01 Jan 1970Samsung U900 has really low ringtone volume you can hardly hear it and it has alot of signal problems sound quality when you are talking to someone sounds like there is a echo and when you turn the speaker volume up it is even worse i know alot of people not happy with these LG Secret is better

Anonymous, 01 Jan 1970tough question.. all are nice phones, the LG secret and the soul are very similar tho..personally id go the soul and its a bit cheaper too. i think the secret is the female version of the soul so u might like the design of the LG more. only real difference is souls got better image/picture quality, secret has better video quality. souls got a slightly better audio player too so if ya listen mp3s on ya ph take that into consideration...thats pretty much it.

Hav this phone for week now.
It's great in shape, weight, looks and feel.
Thre are however some issues:
-you have to activate phone to see missed call or message
-there is no any setting for key lock. phone lock itself when you close it and when screen goes off. this is really annoying, especially when listening to music. you have to unlock it every 15 seconds
-when the headphones are plugged in, flap covering the socket is hanging loose, can be very easily broken. and looks stupid. also volume key is directly over that socket, and its really hard to press it when plug is in.
-delivery reports are coming as separate messages and are stored in inbox folder.
-the back of open flap looks like it's been made from old oil barrel.
-and you can't find the music player, because its icon picture is...camera
-i wish it also had possibility to put some picture into touch screen and maybe some customizable shortcuts menu.
Apart from that it's really great.
I'm used to nokias whose functionality is great, but now they making china-quality phones with design of sardine can (n95 for instance) with plastic from melted Action Man.

Well had my U900 for a couple of days now and i honestly cant find a negative with it yet.
Battery cover was off in seconds and has been on and off a few times since with ease.
I was expecting the volume to be an issue, but to be honest i havent had any problems with it!
Its a gorgeous looking phone, the features on it are good and creating your own theme in expert whiles away many an hour at work lol
If anyone can point me in the direction of how to alter the sensitivity on the touch panel..id be extremely grateful..as i cant find where to do it .
All in all its an excellent phone and im very pleased with mine.

I put my charger next to the bed and put my phone on charge whilst I sleep. Fo me the perfect battery would be one that lasted about 18 hours - then it would recharge happily every night. A battery that last two and a half days is really inconvenient - charging midday - THATS an issue. .
