Hi Tuck,
I'm not techie also.. this is the first time I've done it (and believe me.. I had my fingers crossed the whole time!) but I followed the procedure they've got in here: http://www.mobile-review.com/forum2/showthread.php?t=34138
and it seemed to work well. I haven't had any problems with my phone since doing that. I'm in Australia and I my original firmware had the phone was imported from ebay - it had TIM software all over it.
The firmware downloaded was from here: http://www.samsungseriez.com/portal/index.php?option=com_wrapper&Itemid=40
Right down at the bottom of the page, it's Z500REX02.2 (there seems to be newer version now 3.1, but i don't know what the "CKEH2 modification" does - does anyone know?).

Everytime I put my phone in my pocket, it takes pictures (lots of them), causing the battery to run out very quickly. Is there any way to lock this feature?

The Z500 wouldn't be availabe in China yet as there is no 3G network in China, maybe some of the parallel importers may have them.

I've got a couple of questions really, i like the phone but after having a nokia i'm finding it a bit confusing. There are 3 specific things i can't seem to do:
1, i'm on orange and it has it's own home screen, i want to have my own shortcuts - is that possible cos there's aren't my preference.
2, i've been sent a ringtone by a friend but can't seem to set it as a ringtone on my phone. It's saved itself in media album, sounds,ringtones& voice memos but doesn't offer me the optionof making it my ringtone.
3, i tried to get email but it said i wasn't java enabled? What!!
i don't want to be such a girl but i don't get it....
please someone share the knowledge!

Chloe.... Just download the mp3 files ( you can cut them with NERO WAVE EDITOR or other)... and then: settings - profiles - left key ( to acced to options of normal) - edit - then, click on "voice call ringtone" - now go left and right to change the folder, and up and down to change the file... and choose the file that you downloaded.....

Hi
Recently got my Samsung Z500.
I entered all my contact details including birthdays. Subsequent 2 of my contact's birthdays have passed. My phone did not pick up on the dates entered in the contacts details. Is this normal or do i need to enter birthdays elsewhere as birthdays is a rather important part of my job. Please advise.

I have had this phone now for 3 months, and its really annoying me, the battery dies in a matter of hours. Yes i do have to admit i enjoy having all of its great features at my fingertips, however this phone has been hyped up so much, and i feel it to be a let down, because the phone is constantly on charge. My brother has the W800i and it has many of the same features as the Z500, however the battery can survive alot longer than 1 day!
