I have a new Samsung Convoy2 basic phone.

After being fully charged, the charge indicator goes down 1 bar in a day or day and a half. talk time is about 30 minutes a day.Is that normal for this phone?

Hard to say. Are you texting in addition to talking? That will keep the screen on and that uses battery. Are you taking pictures?
If you are only down 1 bar in a day and a half, it means your charge can go 3-4 days, which is pretty good. If you mean you r down to only 1 bar, then that's probably average. Try letting it get down till you get a warning, then fully charge it, and run that cycle a couple of times, letting it fully discharge before recharging fully. That may help it to expand capacity and keep a charge longer.

I have a new Samsung phone and I live in CT. Last month they charged me $38 on my bill for the sales tax for the new phone which was $600. I'm paying for the phone itself over 20 installments of $30 each. Now again I'm getting that same $38 charge. I can't believe that the monthly CT tax is higher than the payment for the phone itself. Does this make sense. Last time I spoke with them on the phone it was for 1 1/4 hours for something simple. I don't want to call unless I need to. The salesman told me nothing about any of this. Thank you for any help you can offer.

The bill from last month states:
CT state sales tax** $38.10
** In some states sales tax or surcharges are calculated on the full cost of the full retail price or VZW cost of the device you purchased and not on the discounted price you pay. The sales tax or surcharges charged on your device was based on $599.99 and appears on this first bill.
The current bill says the same.
Actually, now I'm realizing that last month's bill stated I was making the first payment toward the phone. Now this month also says it's the first payment toward the phone when it's really the second.

Hi the fnt size in the menu bar is too small (unreadable). How can I increase the font size. I have a new Samsung PC with high resolution screen.

You must mean Photoshop Elements 11, not Photoshop.
There is no ability to change the size of the menu font in PSE 11.
note to mod:
Please move to the Photoshop Elements forum.

HT5312 My email associated with my iCloud ID has been deleted and my birthday is wrong in the system for the security question. Therefore, I can't delete my old iCloud ID in order to have my new ID on my phone.

My email associated with my iCloud ID has been deleted and my birthday is wrong in the system for the security question. Therefore, I can't delete my old iCloud ID in order to have my new ID on my phone. HELP!

If the old ID is yours, and if your current ID was created by editing the details of this old ID (rather than being an entirely new ID), go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iDevice, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

Stop email notifications on Samsung Brightside Basic Phone

I have yahoo email on my Samsung Brightside phone. I am constantly getting email notifications. There isn't an option to stop them, only two options for "quiet time" which is very short. Is there ANY POSSIBLE WAY to stop these constant email notifications? They are driving me crazy! I want call, text, alerts but not email. Thanks.

Yes, the email is set up thru Verizon's email app. I don't want to remove the email account as I DO WANT to receive email on my phone, just don't want the annonying notifications. I have since spoken with Samsung and they tell me there is no way to stop the notifcations, the phone isn't designed with that option. I have contacted Verizon to upgrade to a phone that is available for $49 with new contract (I paid more than that for my basic phone when I came to Verizon a few months ago) but am not eligible to upgrade until next Sept. so I am basically stuck. I have just added a data plan specifically to send/receive emails on my phone and will probably just cancel the data and not have it.

Samsung Reality - Basic Phone?

I have a Samsung Reality and was told it was a basic phone, no data plan needed. I know people who have this phone and they do not have a data plan. Anyone have this phone? Do you have a data plan on it?
I have been with Verizon for 20 years and just might need to move to a different carrier

The Samsung Reality no longer requires a data plan, i.e.,
Data plan needed for Samsung Rogue, Samsung Reality, or LG Env Touch?

A friend of my daughter's used my mac when she got her new iphone. Now I have a new iphone and my phone has her app store information on it and I don't know how to get it off and put mine in there!

A friend of my daughter's used my mac computer when she got her new iphone to help set it up. Now that I have a new iphone, her apps and all the app store information is stuck on my phone. Her app account keeps showing up when I try to install something new, and I obviously do not have her password. How do I get this off my phone??

Open iTunes on the computer. Without any iPhone plugged in, go to iTunes' menu and do Store > Sign Out.
The click the iTunes Store row on the left of the iTunes display. You can then sign on from the signon row on the right side of the display using the correct Apple ID and password. Then you'll be all set!

I installed Firefox Sync to connect my PC to my new Samsung Exhibit II phone. Ever since, I cannot receive new emails or connect to network. I want to completely uninstall Sync. I would appreciate any help.

I have not seen any keys, codes, etc on my phone. Just want to uninstall

Hello- Well, the phone is new so I have an awful lot to learn about it. I know my phone works or goes through Google (Gmail)???? which I have always had a Gmail email. I wanted to sync my PC to my new phone. I downloaded Firefox Sync to my PC. It asked for my email and to create a password, which I did. And that was all I did. I glanced at my phone minutes later and realized that new emails weren't appearing anymore after downloading Sync to my PC. Yet, on my PC, new emails were appearing in my Gmail account. Also, right away I noticed a problem with my network on my phone.
I don't know if I should have downloaded FireFox to my cell phone first before syncing.
When I downloaded Sync to my PC and it asked me for my email address and to create a password, I created a NEW password (which then changed my Gmail password), which my cell phone does not know this new password.
Anyway, today I 'Deactivated' my Sync, I think. Lol. But still have all the same phone issues. I'm guessing now that the problem may be because I changed passwords when I created the Sync?
Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you

Now I have a new issue with this phone...

I said in my last post that this is my first smartphone, and I'm having some issues with it.
I played one of the videos stored in my phone, now it won't let me play any videos, it prompts me that " Device Media Processor is Busy"...
Also I noticed tonight that I have no sounds for incoming calls, texts, etc...I went in to try and "change the ringtones and it keeps telling me "Invalid Ringtone Selected, Please make Another Selection". But the thing is, is that these are the ringtones the phone is equipped with?!?! Has anyone seen this before or have any solutions?

I live in France and have a new iPad, if I phone a iPhone on its mobile number or 3G in the uk does it cost the user of that phone any money

I live in France, if I use Face time, on my new iPad to call an iPhone in the UK either on its mobile number or through 3 G does it cost the owner any money?

It won't cost them any more because you're in France (as Facetime is done over the internet) it would just cost you whatever the local charges for internet usage is.
If they use WiFi however it'll be free. (Aside from the cost of having the internet at home).

Need help getting old Palm Zire 31 data on my laptop into my new Samsung Omnia phone

Hope someone can help me, as I am technically illiterate. I have a new Samsung Omnia phone w/Verizon service w/all the features (calendar, contacts, web, etc). I am replacing my Palm Zire 31 because it died - but all contacts/calendar info is backed up on my laptop. Verizon can't help me get my PDA contacts/calendar, etc. into my new Omnia phone. I have NO idea what to do, but am thinking if i could somehow dump the old palm data into my outlook i might be able to get it into the new phone? Anyone out there that can help me? (I don't even know how to dump the Palm data into outlook)
Post relates to: Zire 31

Hi.. Welcome to the Palm forums. Since you have your data in palm desktop and your looking to move your data to outlook there is a utility that you can purchase that will do just that. It is called pocketcopy and can be found at chapura.com for $24.95. Being it is 3rd party software if you have any problems or questions you will need to talk to their support.

My phone broke and i need a new one. Which phone should i pick?

I've had a samsung smooth (basic phone) for around 3 years now. It recently broke and I can no longer use it. I noticed verizon has a bunch of ****** basic phones and no feature phones to sell their smartphones. What phone should i buy? I'm thinking about either the samsung brightside or buy a used ENV3 from somewhere. Speaking of which, if i do manage to get an ENV3 and activate it, will i have to pay for the data plan? Also would it be part of my family plan or seperate? I can't wait for new phones to come out ( I doubt it anyways) so what should i do? I really want the ENV3 more than the samsung brightside but don't know if it'll be part of my plan or what'll happen if it breaks.
I even found a new ENV3

but I'm not sure if my dad will let me purchase it because it's from e-bay

Ok do i need to go to a verizon store because my phone can't turn on. It split into 2 pieces. Also it says it's $80 for the bid and $90 for the purchase but when you scroll down and click on Included items, it says $400 for MSRP. I never bought anything from E-bay or ever auctioned so I'm confused what the real price is and how much the tax will be. Here's the link:

I have 2 new HDs to add to PC - where will they help the most?

I recently purchased 2 new Hard Drives (1TB SAMSUNG F1) that match the ones I currently use in my Intel core i7 PC running Windows 7. I'm wondering where these new HDs will do me the most good, as far as performance and considering future growth, etc. 90% of my work is in 1080i at about 130Mbps Oh yeah, I'm on a budget, so thanks for not suggesting I buy 10 more drives and a high end RAID card ;-) FYI, I'm currently using the motherboard's Intel RAID controller.... I know - I would love to buy a real RAID card!!
Here is my current HD set-up - total of 4 Samsung 1TB F1 7200 RPM:
Drive c: OS and apps
Drive d: 2 disk RAID0 - I set this for "capture" within each PPRO project. I also send media encoder renders here because the sources files are mostly rendered files on the e drive. Plus I often want to back-up these encodes along with the capture files.
Drive e: "render drive" - target for PPRO preview renders, caches (including Cineform renders)
* I realize the flaw with above now - since I use the Cineform CODEC for most edits, almost every clip ends up needing to be rendered, so my poor solo render drive is actually doing more work and playing bigger bit-rate files then my capture array. (I may or may not get a capture card at this point)
** the other issue that comes into play here is which files need to be kept and backed up and which drives can be regularly restriped. From my short time with PPRO, it would seem that none of the PPRO preview or cache files need to be saved or backed up....just the capture files and any media encoder files that I want to keep. Am I missing anything here?
So, I see my options as:
add both new HDs to render array to create a 3 disk RAID0 for renders/previews, leaving the 2 disk RAID0 for captures
add (1) HD to render to create a 2 disk RAID0 render array and use the second new HD somehow to improve performance or workflow
Thanks for your advice on how best to use the two new HDs to improve my system. I think that I only have 6 SATA plugs on my motherboard (ASUS P6T V2), so this fills out my internal HD options.
Thanks!
Jim

Baz,
Thanks for your helpful post! I am trudging through an upgrade to Windows 7 retail from the RC. It worked but is not very stable, so I may have to do a clean install.
Anyway - since you just went through setting up a RAID5 using the Intel MoBo feature, I was hoping that you would be willing to reply with a basic "How-to" or list of steps involved. It has been 8 months since I played with the hard drive arrangement and I can't remember what I did or how, ie, do I start with doing things in the BIOS, how do I stripe the RAID5, etc. Any help would be appreciated! In the meantime, I'll download the Intel Matrix software as you suggested.
Thanks,
Jim
My current arrangement is below. I have two new Samsung F1 HDs to add to these. FYI, the new drives are the same make/size as the existing, but are the commmercial grade. The existing HDs are the ordinary grade....I assume that these will work together in a RAID5 OK.
MoBo = ASUS P6T Delux V2
CPU = Core i7
Disk 0 = OS, boot, page file, primary partition
Disk 1 = video files (capture) * this is a RAID0 using two 1TB Samsung F1
Disk 2 = renders * single 1TB Samsung F1

Upgrading from a basic phone to a smart phone after 6 months?

Alright, right now on our plan we have two smartphones and one basic phone. We've had the basic phone for about 6 months, and wish to upgrade it to a smartphone. We also would like to switch to Verizon's "Share Everything" plan. Is there a way to do this without paying ridiculous fees to get out of the basic phone's two year contract?
Cheers,
Gordon

To expand on what tikibar1 has said, paying the ETF on the basic phone and starting a new line of service would only be helpful if you didn't mind getting a new phone # for the person currently on the basic phone.
However, if this is not a problem, the ETF on a basic phone is MUCH less than the price you would need to pay in order to receive a full retail iPhone.
The ETF on a basic phone is $175 less $5 for each month of your contract you have completed. Since you have had the basic phone for 6 months, your ETF would be $145. A full retail 16 GB iPhone 5(for example purposes only), on the other hand is $649. The discounted price for that same iPhone 5 is $199. So even if you were to pay the ETF and the discounted price on the iPhone 5($145 + $199 = $344) you would still be getting a ~$300 discount on the iPhone 5 from the full retail cost.
Additionally, the chances of being able to find a used iPhone 5(in good condition) for less than that price would be pretty slim.
If you wanted a different model of phone, your costs would of course be different and you would obviously have to weigh your options with those numbers.
Good luck.

I have a new Samsung Convoy2 basic phone.
