[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

I FEEL THAT THIS IS AN ANTI-SAMSUNG STAR FORUM!!!

IF YOU CAN"T USE YOUR PHONE WELL, DON'T COMPLAIN!!

I'VE READ SOME FUNNY COMMENTS HERE!!

Firstly concerning the wallpapers. This is a unique kind of desktop and you must imagine it as being a large screen and you can scroll through it. Therefore you must make a 3 part wallpaper. example:

Concerning the camera, you are all aware that there is no flash even before you buy the phone!! But if you want good pics, try a CAMERA (a real one I mean, a phone camera is not meant to take perfect pictures!!lol)

3rd party apps cannot be installed through USB or BT...that's true...Hmm I mean officially!! It's quite easy!

Call recording is not present.

Its touch screen is the BEST even better than the IPHONE and the call quality is only second best to the LG cookie!!

The music is quite good...not IPOD quality BUT the new technology gives a pleasant surround effect!

So this phone is very good if you use it well!! Its a touchscreen phone!! All touchscreen phones are fragile! Use it well!! Dont consider it as a NOKIA 1100

Only complain the back cover is hard to remove!

More than 10m stars have been sold...so there is bound to be some with some problems! That's why WARRANTY FOR 1 YEAR IS GIVEN!!!

Hi, I haven't seen this problem on the complaints, but when I charge my phone while it is on, it goes off and then I can't get it started again. It happened a few times but before I managed to get the phone on again. This time its gone. I bought this phone June 2009, so it's not even a year old and it is already doing this, don't knoe if it is a battery problem, either way it's not supposed to break after 8 months.
