Looking for Answers about samsung (Unknown)?

Hi sonbay25.

Thank you for your inquiry. Compatible microSD cards will be branded as “Windows Phone 7 Compatible” on the packaging. Approved cards can be obtained from the manufacturer or carrier. (The SanDisk 8GB class 2 microSD card has been certified.)

Many commercially available retail microSD cards are not approved for use in Windows Phone 7. Use of unapproved cards may cause performance degradation or device instability, including unexpected reset and loss of user data. A microSD card class is not an indication of meeting Windows Phone 7 requirements.

Thank you for your continued interest in Samsung products.

Have a great day.

My Samsung Focus from AT&T does have an option for turning off the data connection. It is shown under Settings and Cellular. There you can set the data connection to off. Note that WiFi still works but if you try to purchase an App from the Zune Market[place you will not able to have it added to your bill so you will need to use a credit card.

Hi TFurnivall!

Thank you for your inquiry. That's the power saving mode of the phone that is default on your Samsung Focus (SGH-I917). This is to prolong the battery life of your phone. You need to press the power button to lighten up again the screen of your handset and for you to have alll the options while in incoming calls or for you to go to the menu of your handset.

We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this presents.

There is no option to delete email accounts. When you tap it and hold the only option is to sync.

Look for the WP7 update in January to update this and a lot more.

There are also third party options availble now but you'll have to do a bit of googling since I'm sure it would be against the TOS.

Yes, though how you do it will depend on your car and what other equipment you choose to buy.

An FM transmitter is one way, other car radios now feature bluetooth connections, and still others (like mine) have an aux in port. You'd have to check with your car manufacture.

Well windows "mobile" officially branched off at WP7. MS still puts windows mobile 6.5 on some phones but those are for "developing markets" other than the US.

Old windows mobile apps are no longer compatable with WP7. I'd guess you'd have to wait for what ever security system it is/is going to be to release a WP7 app.

Hi Pepin,

Thank you for your inquiry.

Although Windows Phone does not support copying contacts from the phone to the SIM card, you may synchronize your phone contacts, should you have an email or social network accounts set up on the phone. Kindly check the link below for further details.

Thank you for your continued interest in Samsung products.

For now you don't really.

There is a third party solution availible but I'm sure it would be against Samsung's TOS to talk about it much. A little googling should reveal it though.

MS is supposed to have a major upgrade in Jan that will feature that and many other things.

Look for the WP7 update in January to update this and a lot more.

There are also third party options availble now but you'll have to do a bit of googling since I'm sure it would be against the TOS.

You don't have to worry about it. There is no backgrounding in WP7.

The closest there is is that it can run under the lockscreen but you'd know its running when you unlock it.

Hi jkflint!

Thank you for your inquiry.

When you connect the Travel Adapter to charge, your phone powers on automatically. Your Windows phone stays powered on whenever it is charging.
