hai everyone, should call u guys expert...

I bought my i780 and decided to sell it offhere . however so far, I can't get good price, and better I learn something from you guys. Few question and hopefully you can assist me

1. How I can use the GPS, no program indicate on how to use the GPS
2. What good software to be install? i.e games, productivity tools and most importantly, how to install?
3. How to backup our data etc... (any software similar to Nokia phone backup, i'm used to Nokia)
4. Best software to snyc with the phone. I tried ActiveSnyc, normally, it will say device not connected, when connected, always hang when I want to explore....

pls direct me if this is not the correct thread. Very new here...
*
1. must install middleware progs like GPSGate 2.0 or Port Splitter. Then, find gps progs like MapKing
2. SKTools, Resco Explorer & Photo Viewer Pro. How to install? got a PC rite? download & install aje...but some progs require ActiveSync on PC first.
3. outlook sync for contacts, to-do, calendar. for sms, use easyhelper contact+sms backup (my personal fav). or to backup entirely, use SPB
4. activesync must be corrupted. try reinstalling. else, better send your i780 to samsung for check-up. might as well upgrade to win6.1 at same time. looove the sms thread, juz like InstantMessaging

which shop u bought from? if from pdaexpert, they'll reinstall any progs w/o charge. great service from these fellas!

i suggest making your tones in wav format, if mp3, u can convert with nero wave editor which comes with nero burner.

then, in your PC, go to start > programs > accessories > entertainment > sound recorder, load this wav file, and increase the volume there (it increases by an additional 25% every time u do so

there's another nifty method. a hack into samsung's hidden menu. if screw up something, jus revert to default settings. now, my sammy can match nokia's loudness...yee-har!! thumbup.gif

try the following;
press *#0002*28346#
in menu, choose Normal, then Handset. change SPK to 0db, apply, back, exit.

in fact, it can even make speakerphone, bluetooth h/set, mic louder! just play around for your preferred loudness...

But i heard from some forumers that i780PDXHI1 ROM which is the WM 6.1 doesn't have the threaded SMS and requires 3rd party software to read chinese character... hmm... not sure if this is true or not...  shakehead.gif

upgrading to wm6.1 alone isn't enuf to activate sms threading. u must first install resco explorer so u can edit registry. then, do the following;
go to HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Settings\OEM\SMSInbo xThreadingDisabled=0
U need to edit the registry as above. Restart the phone and it'll change.

As for reading chinese character, dload attachment & do the following;
1. Copy the "sunglobePatched.cab" to your device and click on it. Do install it in your device NOT storage!
3. Soft reset your device to activate the new chinese font.

This is much less space-taking & serves ppl that doesn't want to install big progs like CEStar.
