[Resolved]  Samsung Gt - S5233a Touch Screen — problem with brand new samsung GT-S5233A mobile

Hello,

I bought this phone from E-ZONE Bangalore, around 3 weeks back. It worked fine for first 10 days. After that I am having a problem with the phone.

One hour after switching on the phone, the phone will go out of network coverage. The signal strength indicator on my phone shows FULL strength though. However if somebody calls my number, they gave a response saying my phone is switched off or out of network. Similarly if I call someone, it just don’t do anything and call will get disconnected or sometimes, it will say “No network coverage and only emergency calls”.

Sometimes when I was in the middle of conversation, there will be no voice for 10 seconds and it works again.

To nail down the problem, I kept the phone in different places (just to make sure of network coverage) and I had the same problem. I tried with different network service providers like airtel, idea and the problem remains same.

I went to the SAMSUNG service station, Domlur, Bangalore. They said it’s a software problem and re installed the software. However the problem still persists.

How to get this rectified ? whom should I approach, same service place again ?
Its not even 1 month completed, so should I get a replacement for this ?

Let me know immediately. It’s a pain to have a phone like this after spending around 10000 and within 1 month with the problem

Thanks,
-Mohan

Can you please help me in this issue ASAP...Thanks in Advance.
This mobile, i can say, is not a good mobile. I have not faced any hardware problems so far. But it's software is very poor...Touch screen sensitivity is good. I suggest LG Cookie for any one. It is available at same price and much more features.

This mobile only for those who use gadjets like facebook, flickr etc..

It has a number of '-' ves.
1. Biggest failure in Audio. Sound is very less compared to other mobiles (the main thing i needed).
2. No suport for 3rd party s/w's. Have to download from ur mobile.
3. All features are very basic...calculator doesn't have even 'MS', 'MR', 'MC' options.
4. Music player has no customizable equalizer. So sound is very less.
5. Setting a wallpaper is very difficult. Any wallpaper spreads over 3 screens. (3 desktops are available). So u have to resize any photo to 240*420 resolution. The remaining 2 screens will be only white screens.
6. After entering a number, u have no touch option for dialing. U have to press a hard button to dial that number.
7. Camera clarity is not that much good. Maximum photoes come in blur (like shaked ones).
Greeting Friends,

I think all o[censored]s are having a common query regarding this phone. HOW TO RUN JAVA FILES OR SOFTWARE IN S5233A. But I think no body has answer to this Question.

Please reply back if anyone is having a solution for this.

Thanks,

Hi,

I bought this phone one month back. From the day one, I am having a problem with the phone.

It usually go out of network coverage, specially when I disconnect my bluetooth handsfree. The signal strength indicator on my phone shows no network, even if other phone shows the full network of same provider though. However if somebody calls my number, they gave a response saying my phone is switched off or out of network. Similarly if I call someone, it just don’t do anything and call will get disconnected or sometimes, it will say “No network coverage and only emergency calls”.

I have installed PC studio provided along the phone for synchronising data to computer. First time I updated my phonebook from PC. But next time when I synchronized the phonebook get duplicate entries in phone as well as in the PC (Outlook). This was never happened with Nokia and its software.

Let me know, if anyone have a solution because it’s a pain, when you got out of coverage area, drop calls and duplicate entries in phonebook during synchronizing.
I brought this phone and never had problems with it...is a great phone.
I have a tipical problem with my handset S 5233A. When I cut the line after conversation (making or receiving a call) sometimes, the phone automatically gets switched off. It basically happens when the conversation is over 20 min. Can anyone please suggest me on this.
