I have a Samsung Gravity 3 cell phone. Whenever I plug in the USB cord the phone shuts off.
It doesn't matter if its the USB cord to charge the phone or to access the memory card from my computer. It used to stay on the entire time. When I unplug the cord the phone turns back on.

Hi DeeLyn!
Thank you for your inquiry. You may try doing the soft reset on the phone by taking out the battery for at least 10-15 seconds and then put the battery back in and evaluate it. If it's still not working and still doing the same thing, you may call the Samsung Customer Support Center, as they can help you troubleshoot this issue in a more timely manner than we could through this forum.

Thank you for your inquiry. I would like to inform you that you can only change the text font size on the received text messages. And there's no option to set up the font size on outgoing text messages.
Here's the steps how you can enlarge the font size for received text:
Once you open up a message from your inbox, press the volume up key to enlarge the text as you desired.

Hi there!
There is no available option to transfer your Itunes songs directly between the phone and computer.
Itune songs should be converted first to a format that is acceptable by the phone such as MP3.
Once it has been converted then you may transfer the songs through the mass storage capability of the handset.
For this method, the handset's USB Mode must first be set to Mass Storage and a microSD memory card must be present by following the steps below:
Insert a microSD memory card into the memory card slot located on the left side From standby press the Menu key Select Settings Select Phone Settings Select USB Mode Highlight Mass Storage and press the Save key Plug one end of the data cable into the handset's power/data port located on the right side and the other end into a USB port on the PC On the PC, open My Computer and double-click on Removable Disk (Hint: it will be assigned a drive letter and, depending on system configuration, may not be the only Removable Disk present) Using Windows Explorer, copy and paste (or drag and drop) MP3 files from your PC to the Music folder seen under Removable Disk
Thank you for your inquiry. Regarding your concern, you may enable the Shuffle feature on your music player using the listed steps below.
Music Player Shortcut Keys 1. In Idle mode, press Menu > Fun & Apps > Music player and press the Select soft key or the key. 2. Select a music file and press Play to play the music. 3. While playing a music file, the following keys act as shortcuts: 4. Press the key to exit and return to Idle mode.
- Up Navigation key toggles the music player’s Shuffle feature: On (enable this feature), or toggles to the repeat mode and replays this music file. - Down Navigation key stops the playback of the music file. - Left Navigation key plays the previous music file in the playlist. - Right Navigation key plays the next music file in the playlist.
We thank you for your patronage of Samsung products. Have a good day.
sync, every time I start my car the phone asks me yes or no to sync. Can this be turned off?
I purchased this phone just for my car. Every time I get into the car my phone asks me if I want to sync. I have to press the yes button. Can I turn this off so it will sync by itself? If so how?

Greetings! Upon checking the phone’s information the reason for that might be that the car kit was still on the list of devices under the connectivity on the phone. I would suggest to please delete it on the phone, so that the car won’t prompt you every time you are using the car itself.
It was a pleasure doing business with you. Technical Support Team

Due to Samsung's policy with repairs, any damage encountered to the phone through water or other liquids can and in most cases will cause corrosion to the inner workings of the handset. In these circumstances, it is no longer feasible to attempt to repair the phone; consequently, the phones received in this condition into our North Texas repair facilities are shipped back to the customer un-repaired. If you have insurance through your service provider please contact them for a possible replacement phone. Also, if you purchased the phone with a credit card most companies offer buyers protection. Contact your Credit Card Company to inquire about this program.

Hi ajohnson33!
The phone carries the Dial Up Network Profile wherein you can use it as a modem to access the internet on the phone but this requires the software, driver and data plan from your service provider.
We highly suggest to contact your network for assistance to meet the requirements and steps on using your phone as a modem.

We can do minimal troubleshooting to your phone. Once troubleshooting has been done to the point of actual failure, we can setup a repair on the product, should it be determined the problem cannot be resolved over the phone. We can repair the phone, if it is still under warranty and has not been physically damaged.
If it is deemed, after troubleshooting, that the handset requires service/repair, our Repair Administrators will create a Return Material Authorization (RMA#) for the device. Provided there is no physical damage to the phone and the failure is not due to any type of liquid damage, the phone will be repaired under warranty.
For troubleshooting and questions related to possible repairs we invite you to contact Samsung Customer Care at your earliest convenience through our toll free number 1-888-987-HELP (1-888-987-4357).
