Samsung D500
 

I got one of these on Tuesday from Phones 4 U, but im not allowed it till my Birthday, as its a birthday present. Now looking on the Carphone Warehouse website, i decided to take a look at the bluetooth feature, and i notuiced it said that i can transfer music to the phone from my PC to the phone using this feature. My question is how does this work? I always thought you needed a cable.

you need a bluetooth adapter for your computer, then it would be wireless, as long as its within 10 meters..

EDIT: also you may get a cable that you can connect direct to your phone & computer, to transfer files, but then that would not be bluetooth. but you still put files on your phone.

Re: Samsung D500
 

You see thats what i thought, otherwise there would be no way for the files to transfer. Whats better Cable or bluethooth adapter? Considering my tower is under my desk, and the phone will be sitting next to me when i do transfer files.

Also is there an adapter if i was to get one, specifically made for the D500?

Re: Samsung D500
 

I use the cable for my computer, as I have a front USB and I don't have a bluetooth adapter on the comp.

however, I am sure you can get them, just google for them, http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/product/5391.htm

I use bluetooth, for getting files from friends, thats all I use it for.....

Get a Bluetooth adapter, far less hassle.

Re: Samsung D500
 

I used to have the D500. I would say bluetooth is better, as its faster than the cable, I think.

I got a bluetooth adapter for my PC for £17.99 although I believe you can get cheaper ones just now. It also comes in handy if you want to send any pictures or files from the phone to the PC.

Ok so Bluetooth is the way to go. Just one final question, im on o2 at the moment and am transferring to Orange (Because of the above mentioned phone and other things), now is it possible that they can move my number that i have now, along with all my contacts, and existing credit from the o2 sim card to my Orange Sim Card?

Re: Samsung D500
 

you can port your number, and you can save your contacts from sim to phone, but I don't think you can transfer the credit.

Re: Samsung D500
 

Move your number ..yes contacts..no.

Although if your previous phone has bluetooth you can back up your contacts and transfer them

I dont think they will transfer the credit.....#


[bah beaten to it well done ikthius :)

Re: Samsung D500
 

Bah its not worth it then, still it wont take me long to memorize a new number :).

Re: Samsung D500
 

you can port the number if you want, ask in carphone warehouse about it, it is very possible. but not sure if you have already baough the phone...........

i ported my old orange number to O2 in dec, and next dec I will port it to another network, mostly orange as I prefer them, I don't like O2

Re: Samsung D500
 

Nah ill just stick with the new number, dunno how im gonna use £15 worth of credit thats left on my o2 SIM in 2 weeks. Plus this is an FYI, the lady that serverd me in Phones 4 U said O2's prices have gone up on PAYG anyway.
