Samsung A900 review

Question for the group - I am now able to connect my A900 to PC, and can transfer mp3 to the phone. Is there a way to transfer ringtonw to the phone as well? (ie, which directory should I put it in, and what format must the ringtone be in, etc?)

Thanks

I believe you can use Rumkin to be able to send ringtone-usable files to the handset.

Unfortunately, I have no experience with Rumkin, as it requires 1X to use, which we don't have up here yet.

Just wanna get something straight.. Does this phone have an mp3 player or not.. if so, how many mb?

Yes, it does. Internal memory storage is about 42 megs free for MP3s.

is it possible to add more memory? 42 megs will hold about 10 songs?

It's not expandable, nope, you only get what the phone comes with unfortunately.

Since sound quality is not an issue when playing your mp3's on a cell phone, why not use a much smaller bit rate for the songs you are xfering to your cell?

42 megs will hold about 10 songs at 128 bit. 20 songs at 64, 40 songs at 32 etc....


There is absolutely no way you will tell the difference with the speakers on a cell phone

j

so your saying you cannot connect earphones? im not sure which is better at the moment this or the a920

Each phone is better for different reasons. The 900 is VERY slim. The 920 has a card that can be removed to add mp3's to (If I remember correctly) Oh, as for the ear phones. I am sure that the 900 has them, but you will still not hear the difference in sound quality.

Very true.

Any of you guys know the SPC or MSL for Bell's samsung A900? I heard it was 000000 or something. I have a sprint one and it's almost impossible to get.

thanx

SPC and MSL are unique for every seperate different phone.

i am cellphone dumb and this is my first phone
i just bought my a900 and im trying to get a specific ringtone for my phone
i cant find it when i browse the web with the phone

i currently have an mp3 of the ringtone on my computer but it doesnt recognize it as any file when i send it to my phone
its slayers rainging blood intro in polyphonic if that helps you help me?
please help

I figured out how to upload ringtone from my computer to my A900, thought I'd share with you.

Go to www. funformobile. com, on the left hand side, there is a link to "Upload Ringtone" under "Free Uploads" section. Select the carrier, enter the phone number, and select the mp3 on your computer, and you're done! The site will send a text message to your cellphone with a link to download the mp3 to your phone. However, I should warn you that you probably shouldn't try this unless you have the 'unlimited browser' service ($7/month), because otherwise Bell will charge you data tranfer cost, which I think is $51/mb.

I uploaded numerous ringtones to my phone this way...Hope this helps...

this doesnt work, as soon as the mp3 starts it tells me stopped. I press replay, samething, truetones dont work
