Plugin for Samsung SCH-A950

Does anyone know of a plugin for iSync to allow it to connect to my Samsung SCH-A950?

Well, syncing isn't the only use for Bluetooth. You can also use it for file transfers, wireless headsets, wireless modem etc (if the phone supports such features)...
When choosing your new phone, be sure to check out iSync compatibility first with the following pages:
http://www.apple.com/macosx/features/isync/index.html
http://www.novamedia.de/sync/
http://www.feisar.com/plugins.html
then, also check that your network operator hasn't crippled the phones Bluetooth features...

  • Isync plugin for Samsung i560

    Im looking for a FREE download so i can use this phone with isync on my MBP. I have downloaded free ones before, but it seems they all cost arond $10, anyone know a free site?

    Developing software, hosting it and providing technical support can take many hours of time and costs money, which is why many developers need to charge (often a nominal fee) for their hard work.
    If you don't think the ability to sync your phone is worth just $10 (on top of the hundreds of dollars your Mac, the phone and contract are worth), you could always try learning how and developing your own plugin.
    However, you may also like to know that many Samsung phones cannot be supported by iSync, even with a plugin, because they don't have the required industry standard syncing protocols, and as the i560 is a Symbian-based phone it's even more unlikely that a simple iSync plugin can be developed.

  • Can't sync Samsung SCH-u740 with Mac

    Anyone know when/if Apple will add a plugin or provide docs on how to create a plugin for the SCH-u740? I have scoured the web to no avail.
    Just got this great phone, but if I can't sync to it ... loses a lot of utility.
    Please help ...

  • Samsung SCH-u370 vs. Kin TWOm ; Which would be better for the texter?

    So my plan is going to end in about two months so I decided to research some new feature phones online.
    Since I text often, I wanted a phone with a full keyboard, having a touch screen would be nice as well.
    The Samsung SCH-u370 isn't offered on at VZW anymore, but Bestbuy online still has a stock of it.
    The Kin TWOm looks like a very good phone (8MP camera, slide-out keyboard, etc.) but it didn't have good reviews for some reason.
    I mainly use my phone for texting, but will call for roughly 1-2 hours every other night during the week.
    Shelling out 50$ isn't a big deal for me, but free is always better.
    For the users that have experience with either phone or even both, which would you reccomend and why?
    P.S.
    - If they're any other keyboard feature phones coming out in the next two months, I would love to take them into consideration.
    Thank you so much!

    I have both.
    The u370 UI is much more polished, font sizes are great, you can adjust them. You can doodle/notate on pics. It's 3" resistive touchscreen. You can use finger nail or some dull pointer if touch is slightly off. I have not tested the e-mail/web browser as the phone doesn't have wi-fi and i don't have data plan. Music player is very basic, haven't tested video. No microSD card is included. The camera is 3MP, no flash, but there is night mode (more sensitive to light, but noisy images). You can doodle/notate over pics, great for making quick notes/directions. Because it relies on microSD for storage, you don't really need to use it with any specific software.
    Twom, some parts of the UI can frustrate some people. Font sizes are not adjustable, and there are many areas where the font is thin and small. The built in email client is text only, and it displays some html code rather than stripping them clean. But it does work over both 3g or wifi. The e-mail client's UI is simple, nice to use. You can do full webmail through the browser. You can type notes/comments on pics taken, no sketch pad. 3.4" capacitive touchscreen. That means you can't use fingernail or pointers. There is a Zune player with tegra1 hardware, which means audio and HD video playback. 8GB overall storage with about 6+ GB usable for storage. And you have to use the Zune desktop software to get data on/off the phone. 8MP camera with auto focus, image stabilization, and led flash. But no extras like b&w/sepia modes, etc, etc. The browser is good for mobile sites and small websites, but large websites takes a while to load. Overall it works well enough for basic html & css over wi-fi. Also keep in mind it's unlikely to get an update.
    I can't comment on texting as i don't have a text plan. The Twom keyboard is very tactile, you can hear it click, not mushy. If you really need a good browser on your phone, then you will need a smartphone. Between these two though, the Twom have the advantage in media, the u370 have the advantage as the easier to use phone. And it depends on how much you like/dislike the UI of either phone. The u370 have the more 'normal' UI. Whereas the Twom is more experimental looking, but cuts down the fluff.
    With either phone, make sure you disable 3g data.
    *Actually both keyboards are very good. The difference is the Twom have clicky plastic keys, and u370 have the noiseless rubbery keys. Both keyboards are top of their class. Each key is firm and it's not easy to accidentally click an adjacent key. Depends on which you prefer.

  • I am looking for Microsoft Media Player plugin for Firefox for Mobile, where can I find it for download and installation on my Samsung S2 Mobile phone running Android (2.3.3)

    There is no such plugin for any Android browser. I doubt Microsoft will ever make one. The best chance you have is if the site provides a direct link to the file and you download it. You then might be able to play the file with one of the media players on the phone.

  • Help on readubg .pdfs for Samsung SGH ZX20

    ...so I bought this beefed up phone, the Samsung SGH ZX20
    with the 1Gg microSD card and USB transfer cable and see I may be
    S.O.L. on one of my desires to view .pdf files directly upon my
    phone. My question before I rant in another direction is:
    Can I install FlashLite 2.0 upon my phone myself? Noticed
    only Verizon has capability offered across certain phones but I am
    locked into Cingular. Must I wait for Cingular and Samsung to
    integrate into some future firmware after more defined contractual
    agreements get made? Please don't say it is...
    Before trying anything on own and messing up anything, I
    thought I would explore my DIY ability to transfer and install such
    SW on my phone or find out if there is anything targeted for
    release with this phone. Eyeballing the Samsung product
    compatibility page under a link I pulled from this form only lists
    one freakin' model...the SCH-A950. I don't get the sense this page
    is updated too frequently so can someone upon this forum lend some
    kind assistance involving the SGH ZX20? Much oblidged!!!
    Time to now digress and rant about the feature holes of
    todays mobile technology...
    While I figured out things so I can convert and view my tech
    training videos to this phone, I seek some means to enable my
    viewing of .pdf files. Hoping for some means to see a rolling text
    of content. Don't care much about graphics or pretty fonts, just my
    ability to be more productive during the lull or down moments at or
    in between youth sporting events. Yes, I know the viewing on a
    small screen will be more limited but the mobility and extreme
    portability of 1 gadget versus many motivates me to walk along the
    bleeding edge until things are bundled in a way for a serious
    working professional seeking a life balance versus the crap that
    such resources are focussed upon now (i.e. games, music, etc.).
    Hope to see integrated eyewear around corner to better view
    such content that's tied to my present phone's memory.
    Hey, its great to make money off the teenage or the
    I_Never_Want2_Grow_Up market but how about some serious mobile
    applications too and make them more readily available? Geez, I got
    features like "controlled" shopping, IM, right on the top menu but
    NO ability to pick-n-choose my own menu choices along with their
    priority/hierarachy. Personally, alarms and schedules rate
    higher...
    Since Samsung does not appear to have a forum structured like
    this, I hope OEMs like them or service carriers may see my post
    here and be more ballast with what exiciting new features they
    envision are can start targeting to deploy within the
    marketplace...these providers would then capture my Quan and $$$.

  • The service provided by the Samsung SCH-LC11 Mi-Fi device, and/or the 4G LTE service, is unusable.

    I got the Samsung SCH-LC11 Mi-Fi device and 4G LTE service from Verizon about one week ago here in the Chicago area.
    (Note: the first thing I did was update to the latest firmware (EF07) per the Samsung website.)
    I am using it with my AT&T iPhone 4 with "Cellular Data" on the phone turned off completely.
    I ran all the speed tests, 10 megabit up/down, wow, great.
    Unfortunately, there are at least two major problems with it:
    1)  I noticed almost immediately that push emails stopped coming to my iPhone after a few minutes.
    After looking into this in more detail I realized the following:
       a)  The modem inside the Mi-Fi device is being assigned a 10-Net / "carrier-grade NAT" IP address, not a real Internet IP address.  Fine, I don't really care as long as it works.  I am not trying to use a VPN, or do VoIP, or run some webcam somewhere.  In other words I'm not a "revenue leak" in Verizon "parlance" (I worked at Motorola during the OBEX fiasco days), but it's nice to know I'm being treated as such right off the bat.
       b)  The "carrier grade NAT" appears to have a TCP timeout of no more than two minutes.  I verified this by opening a telnet session to somewhere and not typing something for two minutes.  After the two minutes I typed another character, but it never got echoed back and the connection was dropped.  After waiting only a minute and a half, it lagged a little but sprang back to life.
       c)  Problem is, push email relies on having an open TCP connection that is idle the vast majority of time.  When an email comes in, the Exchange ActiveSync server sends a message back out to the device (over the existing connection) saying the mailbox has changed.  Unfortunately, after two minutes of idle, the "carrier grade NAT" has dropped the translation entry a long time ago, so the connection is dead.
    So I emailed support about this.  (the ticket is "WFM87599752").
    In the first round they told me to go look in the device's settings @ http://192.168.1.1.  Yeah, did that already.
    In round two, they blamed the dormancy timer.  That's obviously not it, since the modem is layer two and knows nothing about TCP at all.  Just to be sure though, I performed the test again, but this time I had a DOS window pinging Yahoo repeatedly so the modem wouldn't become dormant.  Problem still happened.  I saved the Wireshark PCAP here so anyone can see:  http://home.comcast.net/~abcbwtxyz/two_minutes.pcap  Frame #339 is where I try to type again, never to hear back.
    2)  The other problem is that as soon as a second person connects to the Mi-fi device over Wi-fi, the first person gets dropped almost immediately, and can't even reconnect again afterward.  I mean, really?  Made this video to illustrate:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iadz4DGXFRM
    So, can someone help?  I know I'm not the only one having these problems; I sent the support alias the following links just as examples, there are many more:
    http://himself.wordpress.com/2011/04/30/verizon-wireless-issuing-private-ip-addresses-to-3g-customers-class-a-nat-joy-and-gross-ineptitude-verizon-wireless-3g-fraudulent-enticement/

    http://www.droidforums.net/forum/droid-x-tech-support/101185-droid-x-verizon-3g-assigning-10-nat-ips.html
    -Chris

    So just to follow up on this.  I called to cancel today.  The CSR wanted me to talk to tech support about my problems and talk me out of cancelling so I said fine.  Summary of conversation:
    1)  Immediate acknowledgment that the two minute timeout of idle connections is by design, and no dispute that it breaks push email.
    2)  Disagreement with the claim that a second person logging on kicks off the first, even though I offered proof.  Dismissed my point that other people have seen the same exact thing, saying that if you look up problems other people are having on the Internet, people say anything and everything.
    Anyway, I continued with the cancellation; to their credit, they waived the activation fee and credited me for "time served", so I won't owe anything.  I did appreciate that.

  • I have Adobe Flash Player Plugin for Firefox, but I'm still missing Flash Player?

    So I have installed the latest version of Adobe Flash Player Plugin for Firefox, and I'm able to watch youtube videos on my browser and other things that require flash player, but I have a disc that i got along with my Samsung monitor, and when I put it in my computer, it says that I do not infact have flash player. Also, when I try playing a game, DawnGate, theres a black box where a video should be, and it says that i do not have flash player, and it is required to watch these videos. I tried uninstalling, and I was unable to watch youtube, and when i reinstalled, I was able to watch youtube again, but that did not fix my problem. Is there something I'm missing? I look forward to hearing from someone soon.

    Odds are it's looking for the IE plugin: (A lot of software just assumes ALL Windows users are "slaves to Microsoft" and only have IE installed.)
    Flash Player for ActiveX (Internet Explorer)
    or the standalone Player:

  • Samsung SCH-LC11 4G MIFI mobile hotspot - First Impressions #2

    Yesterday, I received two Samsung 4G MIFIs to add to our corporate plan.  These are also to serve as test units for evaluation for a possible upgrade of our 14 other 3G data lines (PCMCIA). Here are my first thoughts and impressions regarding this device.  I apologize in advance for the length of the post and some of the more simple descriptions that might not need to be included.  I've found that sometimes these minor steps become helpful to others with troubleshooting issues.  I've found that they sometimes end up as "AH HA!" moments.
    Out of the box:  As soon as I opened the box, I was impressed by the size and styling of the adapter.  Having not used or even seen one in person, it was a bit smaller than I was expecting.  It's certainly small enough to fit into a shirt or pants pocket. For those that have not seen one, it's approximately half the height of a pack of cigarettes lying down.
    Initial Setup:  In general, this couldn't have been much simpler.  After following the basic instructions (install battery, power on, connect and login), it was ready go.  No activation phone number to call like I'm used to.  *Reading other posts, it looks like these adapters don't always come pre-configured like mine was.  It already had the SIM card installed and was ready to go.  This must be a friendly service my local distributor does.
    I love the fact that this unit does not need VZAccess Manager to run.  Simply plugging the USB cable into a laptop will start charging the battery without putting it into a "single user" mode like other adaptors do.  This simplifies things for IT administrators, as you don't have to explain multiple scenarios for how to use the device.  Plus there are fewer options for the end user to mess things up. 
    Advanced Setup: This is where things start getting fun.  My first task was to change the SSID and security key.  I navigate over to the Network->WIFI tab. It took me a minute to figure out the whole profile thing, but when I went to make my changes on the "Manual Configuration" side, something still seemed out of place.  I had drop down menus that didn't have any text in its fields.
                      Blank Field
    This lead to a bit more confusion as to how the profiles worked.  I decided to change things up and switch from IE 8.0.7601 to FireFox 4.0.  Using FireFox, everything looked in place.  I proceeded to configure the settings and then selected "apply".  Apparently this wasn't the option I needed as all my settings reverted back.  It looks like you need to select "Update Profile" first before applying the active profile.  Great, now we are up and running! 
    Note: Both of my devices are running AP/Modem firmware: EC04
    Speed Test:  Curious to see how these new devices performed, I ran a number of speed tests while connected.  My area has yet to be 4G enabled, so I wasn't expecting much in terms of an improvement with the 3G.  On average I was getting 1mbps down and 500kbps up.  This is actually slower than our current 3G cards that average 1.5mbps down and 768kbps up.  Hopefully we get the 4G service sooner rather than later. 
    Deal Breaker:  VPN.  For my company, we use Windows VPN access.  I spent a little time trying to connect to the VPN with this adaptor.  For some reason I could not get past the authentication.  I tried from multiple machines, using different OSes, still no luck.  I contemplated making some changes on the server side, but decided against it as all other VPN connections (including 3G adaptors) were fine.  That led me to these forums in search of an answer.  More specifically, the current post on the exact same issue I was seeing.
    http://community.vzw.com/t5/4G-Discussion/Samsung-SCH-LC11-Blocks-Microsoft-VPN/td-p/489618
    I will do some additional testing, including some changes on the VPN server, but might have to send these back.
    Summary:  They look like great little devices, but in my opinion, are currently not quite suited towards some business environments.  This could perhaps change with a firmware update or two.

    Sorry to take so long to reply....  I now have a support community set up at http://www.netsubnet.com, or you can touch the support button on the SETUP tab inside of HotSpotSam.
    Yes, that's the second request for signal strength, so it's on the planned feature list.  I'm currently working on integrating the real artwork so that it's easier to see the current status - and the app looks a lot better too.
    Next up is putting the status messages into a real log so if there's a problem or you just want to see what the app has been doing, you can scroll through it.
    Also, I'll be putting the most common questions into an in-app help screen.
    Then I'll work with the artist on the best way to show the signal bars on the main screen.  The RSSI number on the INFO tab is the Received Signal Strength Indication (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Received_signal_strength_indication) ie "Signal Strength" so the info is out there just need to display it.
    I'd also like to add an option to beep on low battery.
    There have been thousands of downloads so I guess people find it useful!  It would be nice if more people would rate and review, too.
    Thanks for your suggestions.

  • Samsung SCH-LC11 4G WIFI Standby

    I know this is a result of the awful firmware with the device and want to see if anyone has figured out a fix.
    My Samsung SCH-LC11 unit locks up and Green Light under the WIFI button stays constantly lit. In the manual it says that it is in Standby mode.
    How do I get this to stop ?
    Thanks....

    Hello,
    Based on the user manual, simply press the power button to get it out of standby mode. After 30 minutes of inactivity, the device will go into standby mode.  Please view the link below for access to the user manual:

  • Samsung SCH-LC11 4G Hotspot  4g LED not lit

    Just got the Samsung SCH-LC11 4G Hotspot today. I live in an area where 4g is not available. The 3G LED is green and I have no issue accessing the internet but the 4G led is not lit at all. The manual gives no reason for the led to be dark. Any ideas?

    Which lights for 4G / EVDO indicates which mode the Hotspot is working in.  Only 1 mode can be used at a time.
    If you are in an area where there is no 4G then the modem is not operating in 4G mode so the EVDO light should be lit instead.
    You can see the modem status by using the Admin Web GUI (http://192.168.1.1) under Configuration -> Diagnostics.
    When you press the Modem button, it will display info about the modem values, 2 of which will be the Signal for EVDO and 4G.

  • Samsung SCH-LC11 edit settings file

    Does anyone know how to edit the settings file on a Samsung SCH-LC11.  Specifically I want to allow it to still operate as a hotspot while charging. 
    I've seen a post on Cnet for a different Samsung hotspot for this.  When I export the settings file on the SCH-LC11 it is not readable in notepad.  What program do I need to read the file?
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Mark

        Hello jmarkh,
    The LC11 hotspot can be used while charging. Simply, turn it on and connect your wi-fi enabled devices. Once connected, you can plug the hotspot to the charge and the charger to a wall socket. Voila! If you have any additional questions then don't hesitate to reply to this message. ^AH

  • Anyone successfully syncing a Samsung SCH A-870 via bluetooth?

    I’ve managed to pair my Samsung SCH A-870 with my MacBook Pro via blue tooth with no problems. However, I cannot send any v-card info from the addressbook to the phone, and the Mac is not connected to the phone via the Bluetooth preference pane in the system prefs on the Mac. Paired and configured settings both say Yes in the system pref pane on the Mac. I’ve tried using the Onsync share ware, but also get some arcane error when I try to link a contact from the Mac to the phone. It seems that there is some restriction with the phone contact set up, but why won’t my Mac “connect” to the phone. I also have discoverable set to on on the Mac. Naturally, Verizon has been of no help to resolve this issue. Any advice welcome.

    sorry, no help here... just posting that i'm having the same trouble... but i did find some info on samsung's site regarding how limited the feature set is for the phone regarding the phonebook... it mentions that verizon's office connect software is the only way to get contact info in, but as you already know - verizon really isn't mac friendly :P and the software is windows only.
    in any case, i knew i wasn't going to get many features from the phone, but at least dialing from address book would be nice!

  • Can't Get (But Still Charged) Mobile Web on Samsung sch-u410 prepaid

    Hi, I have a prepaid samsung sch-u410 which I used to use to access the internet for an extra 99 cents a day. The last time I used it was the monday before Hurricane Sandy hit the Jersey shore. That same day I was hit with about 15 "picture" messages from a few unknown numbers (I rarely give the number out, but it seems my number got on someone's contact list and some malware got it). The "pictures" wouldn't come up when I opened some of the messages, even the phone actually has a camera and allows picture messages as well as text. So I deleted the whole bunch. The Verizon CSR I emailed assured me that the problem had been reselved and recommended calling the toll-free number next time I had a problem. OK, but I usually don't get close to a landline, so that would be a great stretch.
    Anyway, the next time I used the Mobile Web was Nov 2, the friday after the storm, around Berlin, NJ. I reached the My Verizon page with the balance info, but can't go anywhere beyond that. No matter what option I use, it returns to the home screen as though I pressed "End" . I tried it for about a 20-mile stretch, with the same result. I can still text and make calls with the phone though.
    The next day (Saturday) I tried to call Customer Service, but it must have gone on vacation, because I was stuck on hold for 30 minutes with messages pointing to the website. Three days later (Tuesday) I finally got a rep, who told me to 1) dial *228 to reprogram the phone and when that didn't work, 2) take the battery out the phone for 30 seconds. Then she consulted tech support and told me that the phone needed an upgrade and that I had to take it to a Verizon Store for the procedure. No problem; I run into at least 5 of them within a 30 mile radius. Imagine my surprise when she told me the nearest place in my area was Williamstown, NJ, and eternity out of my way. So dumb me takes it to a Verizon store in the area and she flat out told me that I needed a new phone (after giving me the "water damage" excuse).
    So is it worth the effort to trek to the corporate store? I had the phone for little over a year, but after some research found out that the phone was manufactured around 2007-8 (feature phone era, I guess)

        I hope you and your family have been able to stay safe through the storm dlclayton. Having a reliable phone is important, so I'm glad you're at least able to get those important calls out. If your phone does have liquid damage though, a software update may not be able to resolve the trouble you're having. If liquid has made it's way to the innards of your phone, it can have an effect on the phone's performance in lots of different ways. Sometimes effecting just voice or volume, other times effecting data or speeds, etc.
    For the fastest assistance, you can reach our Prepaid Customer Service at 888-294-6804. When prompted, enter the prepaid phone number. Then press 4, 5, 4 and then enter your pass code for your account.  If you do not know the pass code enter in four zeros.  Then the system will transfer you to a Prepaid representative.
