Samsung I7500 :: Confused Between I5700 & I7500
Mar 18, 2010
Sorry if this thread seems inconsequential but I have been rendering myselves sleepless nights over the past couple of days ( and nights ) due to my inability to choose between the above two said android phones. I like the i5700 for its zippy 800 MHz processor and that its got the 2.1 update. I like the i7500 for its 5 MP camera and flash + a larger screen to play with I would have gone in for the i7500 but have been hearing about Samsung deciding against not updating it to version 2.1 which can off course be done taking the un-official channel. Moreover the 528 Mhz processor is certainly lagging.
But still I see people in here Going after the i7500 .... Adding to it there is more threads and discussions going around on the i7500 as compared to the i5700. Am I missing something in the i7500 or is it just that i am a stupid newbie ... I have gone through many many pages of information on this thread before posting this query.

I accidentally put my phone in another language, and in the process reset factory settings. Now, my phone wont connect to the internet. WTF?! What did I do!? My SIM card was in when I did this.

Does GAOSP Froyo support live wallpapers for i7500? If yes, can you recommend some that seem to run fine without (major) slowdown? I would suspect that the CPU is too slow to run most live wallpapers, but there might be some neat ones that are good to go?

The Samsung i7500 Galaxy is, except the support from Samsung itself, a great Android smartphone with a very good (the best?) price for value. It's with 11,9mm the second slimmest Android phone after Nexus One with 11,5mm (right?) and has unlike the HTC phones a flash light and build in storage of 8GB. On most sites the Galaxy is (one of) the cheapest Android phones, I wonder if it's because Samsung is cheaper or HTC/Motorola more expensive by itself?
I personally would compare the i7500 with the HTC Hero, although in my opinion the i7500 still has a much better price for value.
Is it even possible to define if and which Android phone is a low, middle, or high-end smartphone?
Sure, it also depends for what purposes you bought and use your phone, but I still wonder were the i7500 would be if 1=low and 10=high end Android phone, and if there even is a number 10? I also think that the D-Pad is a big plus and not a minus in comparison to the scroll ball from HTC.

I've been noticing while looking at other i7500 reviews that my keyboard layout is completely different than all the other i7500, whether in landscape or portrait mode I don't have the caps lock key, instead i have a T9 and the printed orange colour keys is what I hate most
Pls look at this pix, and tell me what can be wrong with this keyboard.
In my settings these are the steps:
Settings>Locale & text >Samsung keyboard, that's all I have, no other Keyboard available, am I missing something or what?

I'm a cross border employee and would like to use navigation my Galaxy i7500 whilst roaming and minimize cost at the same time. I have AndNav2 set up with maps of western Europe cached on the SD-card. Since A-GPS still generates data traffic (and having disabled this option whilst roaming),no position data is available.I still have an external bluetooth GPS receiver and paired it with my Galaxy.How do I get my Galaxy to use the external GPS source for apps like AndNav2 or Google Maps for that matter.Any help is highly appreciated.

I recently broke my iphone (for the 3rd time) and decided to switch to a unlocked i7500 that we had sitting around the office. The setup with at&t was no problem, and the phone works and has 2g data. However, I cannot connect to the 3g network. Is it possible that at&t does not support this phone for 3g?

When I compose an SMS message, I can no longer add a contatc by pressing the "To" space. I press it and nothing happens. To send an SMS I can only select "Send SMS to mobile" from the contacts list, then the contact gets added. Any ideas? I am running only 1.5 and have installed just a few apps lately (Jorte, smooth calendar, battery widget, voice recorder, compass, Quick settings, oi notepad)

I am new to this forum and new to the Samsung i7500..in fact I have only ever used Nokia classics before so it's all quite different. I have figured out most of the basic things that I want to use on it.I want to transfer a photo my daughter sent to me, onto my computer but I can't figure out how to do that. I'm using the New PC Studio software that came with the phone but can't figure out how to find the photo in the text messages (or find the text messages for that matter).I can find photos I've taken with the phone, but not the ones sent to me via sms.

I must say that I was a bit dissapointed today, when I got my I7500 android device, and wanted to imediatley check for upgrades, and sync with computer. The NPS CD in the box was aged, so I uppgraded from Samsung.com (Version 1.3.0 IH4). So I have 2 issues with this software
1) It does not install succesfully on my Windows 7 64-bit machine 2) It installs on my windows 7 32-bit, but it does not "connect" with the i7500. I can see that the two storage devices, and it is impossible to "connect" the phone. Does anyone know of samsungs plans to release a suite for Win7, and also for plans and timelines for 1.6 or 2.0 firmware upgrade from samsung. Or would I be better off to just run this device in Dev mode? My I7500 has 1.5 running I7500XXII8.

My apologies if this has been addressed elsewhere, but if it has I have not found it. Is there any good way to allow either Ubuntu 9.04 or Mac OS X 10.5 recognize the i7500 for file transfer, such as removing photos/movies to the desktop or adding music to the phone?
