thx for the info..i use mini b4..quite sux..opera mobile 10 ftw!..to those fella who want to get this phone out there..just get it if the price match ur budget..ignore all the bad review about this gadget,i tried it and now become 1 of my best phone i have so far..

most pros >> the battery life..now 3 days with some wifi,texting,receive call..still have 2 more bars.xD

Yes, I love this phone too. The battery life, as is with all Samsung Windows smartphones (non touch-screen), is amazing (I had i600 before which battery life is amazing too, & that only had 1000mAh, while B7330 has 1500mAh). I upgraded the firmware recently & it made B7330 even better, because my complaint before this was that the alt button toggles between alphabet, symbols/numbers & pinyin (chinese characters), which I don't use. With the new firmware, the pinyin toggle is gone, & so, now it's easier to type because just alphabet & symbols/numbers are available now (note: you'll lose Mobile tracker function with the upgrade though, which I don't use anyway, because it's not everyday you lose your phone ). I also like the shortcut 'Alt + letters on keyboard'. Makes it easier to open any app from the home screen. And also, main reason I still stick to Windows Mobile Standard (Smartphone) OS rather than move to Windows Mobile Professional or Android etc is the shortcut in the softkey menus, where you can quickly jump to the menu options by typing the number of the associated menus.
About browser, at the moment, I'm still using Opera Mobile 8.65. Is Opera Mobile 10 really that good? Maybe will give it a try later. Infact I'm writing this reply on my B7330 using Opera Mobile 8.65.
My only gripe still is the message button. With i600, I was so used to it opening the message app, so that I can quickly flip through emails & sms, but now, had to long-press before can open it. Short press creates New Message instead. Wish B7330 has an active developer/hacker group (which it doesn't) which can fix issues like this.
I wonder if anyone has bought the new Samsung Omnia Pro 5. It's basically B7330, but with the audio port changed to standard 3.5mm plug instead of microusb, which I wished B7330 has. But actually, other than that, Omnia Pro 5 is a downgrade with smaller screen, lower resolution camera & lower HSDPA max speed.
So, I think overall, after almost a year, I'm pleased with B7330, & hoped that Windows will continue making Windows Mobile Standard phone rather than focusing on the new Windows Phone 7 only (no true multi-task, copy & paste & microsd slot!)

agree. this phone is very good, it give me headache for my next phone. application wise, so far, i manage to have all app i need. function wise, it has more function then other new phone (vid call especially). performance wise, good batt life + less hang, i'm very happy with it.

people always mistaken this phone with bb, it is not easy to explain to them...
"kau punya ni blekberi eh?"

and if you use iTalk, the iTalk client/dialer is working perfectly.

bro, have you found the solution? i think you better check with digi on the setting. you might need to input them manually.

Just received my b7330 yesterday. Bought it when my i780 sink in recent flood

So far experience is good. Multitasking and speed is also acceptable, can open 5 applications without noticeable lagging on the device.

Being a previous wm professional user, xda zinc, htc touch 3g and i780, my only quirk is I can't copy and paste between application. I copy paste a lot from several application, i.e notes, onenotes to my email when replying emails. Also can't find notes application, although there is a voice note which I don't use.

Is there a workaround for this, or do I have to live without the ability to copy paste between applications?

I have an external charger with my previous i780, is there any similar charger for b7330? Tried searching the web, but can't find any.

B7330 does have onenotemobile at Start>Application>Office Mobile. However, onenotemobile doesn't sync to Outlook on PC & it also doesn't have Copy & Paste.

Since B7330 is WM6.5, it does have Copy & Paste but only with its native apps like Calendar, Contacts, Email and Tasks (press Menu> Copy/Paste & you can select using shift button + left/right nav pad). Earlier version, like B7320 is WM6.1 & doesn't have Copy & Paste. Some 3rd party apps also have Copy & Paste like Opera Mobile 10 (free) & Documentstogo (paid). For me, to resolve problem with taking quick notes, I use either Task or Wordtogo. For Task, you can write notes at the 'Notes' field, which you need to scroll all the way down to reach. To reach these apps quick, I use the Alt+keypad shortcut which can be customized at Start>Settings>Alt key settings. I assigned Alt+T for Tasks & Alt+W for Wordtogo. I can then Copy & Paste quickly to my email, browser etc

What external charger are you talking about? Wall-plug? Weren't you provided with one when you bought it? Anyway, you can just buy any microusb wall-plug charger at Low Yat or any phone shop

Hi emy,

Yes I noticed the b7330 come with Office Mobile, but it doesn't have copy & paste like their wm pro siblings. You can sync onenote with microsoft onenote if you have it installed on your pc, just upgrade your office mobile to version 2010, free from microsoft marketplace.

I use onenote to store a lot of notes which act as an email template, so I can use them when replying emails. However, I think I have found the solution for this, since I'm using IMAP for my emails, I just create a template folder and store all my email templates there and sync it the mail application.

Also another feature that the wm standard email application didn't have is the ability to insert quick text in your email. Really useful feature. Wonder why microsoft crippled the wm standard email application when handphone that are using are them meant to be a use as a messaging set.

A standalone external charger, which is a separate case where you put your battery in it, plug in the microusb charger cable and charge your battery. Didn't have to charge your battery through your handset. It came standard with the i780 box set. Really practical if you have more than one battery.

There's 'My Text' in email. Isn't this the same as Quick text? You can also edit it

guys, i used to use vito copypaste, but while killing some of my valuable time looking for other alternatives, i bump into SmartToolkit by e-Natives http://smarttoolkit.wordpress.com/

as expected, no more development for this free software. last updated on Apr-2009.

i wonder why only now i come across to this tool because it is very good and useful tools.

what it does:

1. copy, cut and paste function from/to any window


2. vista/seven like start menu.


3. task manager from any window


4. small clock at the tray bar
5. autolock function + screensaver
6. skinning

and much more. please read e-Natives blog. I've tried RC9 but it seems to hang frequent. RC8 is considered quite stable. I'll attach RC8 at front page since the link at the blog already dead.

Added on November 13, 2010, 3:23 pmoh. some notes on the skin. B7330 user need to do something before it works properly.

in the skin folder i.e.: \Program Files\SmartToolkit\skins\My Phone Vista make a copy (duplicate) 320x240.skin file and rename it to 320x320.skin (or just simply rename 320x240.skin to 320x320.skin).

hope this help.

i'm selling this phone..need to migrate to android os becuz of its huge apps market..anyone interested can view my topics..

this is a good phone of course,but nobody dare to try it i think.

"02. Disable 3G connection"

hopefully not need to suffer the same mistake again
accidently use 3G, mistakenly thought using wifi ..... huge bill

Added on December 17, 2010, 2:12 pmFunny. I suppose disabled both 3G AND the wap connection using "dummy".

But somehow the phone still manages to open websites and surf using "dummy" ???

In Wireless Manager-Menu. I have to "Disconnect Cellular Data"

I think the only safe way is off the phone.

something to share. if you encounter your Windows Media fail to run and all system sound (ring tone, warning) does not work, just delete all folder in "\Application Data\Volatile"

oh windows...

I've a weird problem this morning.

My emails (using google imap) cannot connect to the email server, though I can browse the web fine. I didn't change any settings on the phone, the connection is Celcom 3G Internet. Even deleting and creating the email account didn't solve the problem.

Any of you ever encountered this kind of problem on the b7330?

yes, this will happen again if the folder is full again. for precaution, just clear the folder from time to time.
