I wouldn't recommend this phone

in the Article: Review: Samsung Conquer 4G forum

Samsung's low-end phones are never worth the headache. You'll never get software updates and the phone will have weird bugs that never get resolved.

I noticed in the specs that the Dash isn't supposed to have Flight mode, is that a mistake?

$279.99 without contract
Sep 12, 2006, 12:36 PM
in the Samsung SGH-T519 Trace forum

8O $279.99 without contract, $149.99 with 2-year (for me). I just called a local T-Mobile store (Lenox Mall in Atlanta) and they said that I could buy a T519 for $279.99 without contract. I just renewed my contract for an SDA in March, and they said I could purchase one for $149.99 with a 2 year contract. Ya whatever, I'll just buy one for $150 to $200 on eBay in two weeks.

The T629 will be thinner and have more features than the T809, right? I just wish they wouldn't offer the phones in 2003 silver.

How much is it without contract? This phone is awesome, I'm glad I didn't get the T509.

No mail in rebates.

Re: Samsung T809 Modem Question?? URGENT
Mar 26, 2006, 7:05 AM
in the Samsung forum

You can use the T809 as a Bluetooth modem, in which case you don't need to install any additional software, or as a USB Modem, where you need to install the Samsung drivers and software and read the instructions. One thing you have to remember with Bluetooth DUN is that the phone asks you for permission to connect. So if you don't authorize the connection on the phone, the connection attempt will fail on the computer.

Samsung still need to incorporate Bluetooth into more models, but they've come a long way since 2004. :D

Re: Buy Qtek 8020 or i-mate Sp3i

in the Windows Mobile Standard forum

As an SDA owner, go for either the 8020 or the SP3i. WM5 doesn't have enough improvements, especially in the 2125, which lacks wifi. Most of the apps on WM5 are exactly the same as WM2003SE, very little has changed. Your appointments are still handled the same way, phonebook is the same, etc.

The T610 had a CSTN LCD screen, and the SDA has a transflective TFT LCD screen. There's a world of difference. But if you like your T610, you can buy a T637 - it has the new TFT LCD and is much much better to read in sunlight and you can see the time without pressing a key to light it up.

100 contacts is too small, but it must be an intentional limitation. Thanks for caring, VZW!

Only megapixel camera?

Why not atleast a 2MP camera? 1MP cameras are old hat.

You'll have to get the $20 plan for the SK2, the device will not work without it. Look out for the keypad on the A630, it'll make you file your nails to a point just so you can press those tiny keys.

No, HTC makes GSM and CDMA PDA phones as well as PDAs (Dell Axim and others). The Sprint PPC6700 is HTC, Treos are HTC, the list goes on. The Motorola MPX220 wasn't HTC, and it sucked. Coincidence? :wink:

The hump (my hump my hump my hump!) is an additional antenna. Check www.smartphonethoughts.com for the findings of their intrepid researcher/neckbeard.

Any you can find. You're best off using mp3, wav or midi ringtones though.

Nowadays T-Mobile's phones also have 850, so I wouldn't count on it coming to TMO.

Its on www.myworldphone.com for $169.

You should go to Verizon. There you can pay $20 or whatever for the privilege of taking your phonebook with you from your old phone to the next, and they will probably mess it up for you. All the phones I've had since 1998 store numbers on the phone itself, so your complaints are moot anyway. If you want to get rid of SIMs just because they don't fulfill an ancillary duty to your satisfaction, you're off the rocker. I ...

The x495 has speakerphone and lacks a camera, if that's what you're interested in.

Re: Cingular VS T mobile

I look at it like with AMD vs. Intel. Intel doesn't need my dollars since its so huge, so I support the underdog. I have T-Mobile service and an AMD processor.

Re: GSM VS CDMA
Aug 14, 2005, 9:33 PM
in the Sprint forum

If CDMA wasn't such a closed system with the carriers having all the power, it would be better. As long as phones continue to cost as much as they do, I'll stay with GSM so I don't get burned by my carrier.

You have to install it from the computer with ActiveSync.

Re: AUDIOVOX SMT5600 PLEASE HELP!
Aug 14, 2005, 9:30 PM
in the Windows Mobile Standard forum

You have to have the battery charged a little bit so that the computer can recognize it as a USB device. If the battery is completely flat, it won't recognize the phone or charge. You might also need to install ActiveSync 3.8, which you can download from Microsoft.

sicadastra said: The software update limits your ability to transfer the mp3 to the fon, not to use it as a ringtone. as long as you keep the card in the fon, you can use mp3s as ringtones. Other Motorola models can't use ringtones from the memory card, i'm assuming the V710 is the same? :?

Well, if you're looking for a basic no-frills phone, why are you discussing this fancy-ass phone with lots of features and not any other phone in the VZW lineup?

Don't think so. :cry: Such a nice phone.
