Now available in P&T with a $50 activation credit. And only $99.99! Great price for a nice little phone, and should start hitting stores tomorrow.

can someone help me to make the Telus player work again?

**SliceofVice** · 03-05-2009, 05:23 PM

Sorry all, I actually broke my phone last week in a sense, it was a hardware failure of an adapter, so my phone is out of commision right now..hopefully I can get this sorted out and can complete the Java update soon.

Ryan, grab the drivers from the Samsung site, that's all I can suggest at this point, and maybe try some different versions.

greenx, check if the Java Jar/Jad files for it are still on your phone. If not, you should be able to redownload it. What did you do to erase them?

And yeah, I don't suggest adding more than one thing at a time unless you know what you are doing - even so not reconmended because of the way the phone indexes files, getting one wrong could erase all of them it seems.

@Spontan
News to me. You got yours from Telus?

**greenxgoblin** · 03-06-2009, 10:35 PM

I looked and my phone has the 2.jar and 4.jar in it.
so idk what I deleted, I never deleted anything though?
But it happened after I had successfully uploaded a ringtone.. then as the phone had the ringtone, it suddenly disappeared with the music app.

Ok I followed the instructions fine when i restart it starts trying to connect for a update and fails then i go to see if the new ringtone is there and its not i load up bitpim and all the custom files are gone. Provider is Telus.

**Brawler** · 03-07-2009, 03:28 AM

i did it again with your coding and stillllll nothing what the hell

could i be having the same problem as spontatan?
why is it so much more complicated on this one than the other 10 phones iv had :@

**agashka** · 03-10-2009, 02:26 AM

thank you ALOT for all this information. This is my first cellphone, and I really needed that information.
I got custom ringtone to work in just a few minutes

BTW: I have a Pay & Talk account with this phone, so on your first page, the information is wrong. And I paid the phone $100 at Staples

I wonder how to make Java apps to work...
Also, when I tried to put a encoded video, the video was stretched weirdly.
