A. Bottom line, I think you should get her what she wants. But it's worth noting that I have the Samsung Instinct, and as time goes by, the touchscreen gets a little off, making it really difficult to text. And their calibration is worthless. Try and tell her this, and if she doesn't want to hear it, get her the Instinct and let her learn from her mistakes. Obviously you won't be buying her a second phone, it's too expensive. But even with all my touchscreen drama, I love my phone, and I'm sure she'll love hers too. Just hope she doesn't text much! Good Luck mom!

Can you use a Samsung Rant cell phone on the Verizon network even though its normally a sprint phone?
Q. Just curious... I am having a hell of a time with my Samsung Verizon Glyde phone and it looks like the Rant fixes most of my Glyde complaints.
Asked by Abby P - Mon Dec 29 15:31:26 2008 - - 2 Answers - 2 Comments

A. No, Verizon unfortunatly doesn't work off sim cards, so its impossible to unlock phones and make them Verizon if they aren't.

Samsung rant and displaying the date on the main screen?
Q. Hey, I just got the Samsung Rant from Sprint yesterday and I'm kind of disappointed that it doesn't display the date on the main screen. Is there any way I can get it to display the date along with the time? Thanks. Thank you, I've looked in the manual under several topics but have not found it.
Asked by starrystarry - Mon Jan 5 09:33:59 2009 - - 2 Answers - 1 Comments

A. Yea, I couldn't figure that out as well. The only time I see the date is on the screen that comes up when the phone is locked and you have to press * and then BACK to unlock. FYI, I've had my Sprint for 2 months now. And I keep getting issues with the call history deleting itself after 3-4 days. Hope this doesn't happen to you.

Q. I have the samsung rant and I can't seem to get the zoom to work. I read the manual and it says to press the right or left directional keys to zoom in/out.

Q. what's the difference between the samsung rant and the samsung slyde?
Asked by Nikole - Fri Dec 4 00:13:18 2009 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. I'm not sure what the sprint phone has on it for Firmware/Software, but I know Telus' version of the Samsung m540 (Rant/Slyde) has Telus' own software of a slightly different type than the regular m540 is sold with. It puts a couple extra restrictions but also adds an easy potential for games. That's the only possible difference between the two phones; Telus has exclusive firmware and colors, whereas I'm not sure if Sprint has either. GREAT phone, though. I'm with Koodo and therefor have the from-the-factory m540 (other than the default ringtone site being from Koodo), and I love it. Better than the Rumor. Solid phone. Know others with it as well, unbreakable, great battery life, many many options, easy computer integration. Get it.

Asked by Lilly - Wed Jun 30 00:12:58 2010 - - 1 Answers - 1 Comments

A. Q: Is the samsung rant with boost mobile a good phone? A: Yes! The Samsung Rant is an excellent phone for Boost Mobile! I've reviewed the Samsung Rant and the Sanyo Incognito which both phones worked great. I chose the Sanyo Incognito over the Rant because it responded quicker and felt easier on the hands. The Samsung Rant is overall an excellent phone and I would recommend for you to go for it! The Sanyo Incognito and the Samsung Rant are very close phones producing excellent call quality as well as Internet data transfer. Text messages on both phones allowed texting to be performed at the greatest. The Sanyo Juno I have not tested that phone for review at the moment.

Why does my Samsung Rant save all my pictures in random order?
Q. I have a Samsung Rant and I really like it, but when I take pictures, it doesn't save them in the order I took them on the "in phone" part. It gets really annoying because it takes forever to find the picture I'm looking for. Is there a setting or something I have to change? How can I fix this problem?
Asked by michellemybelle - Tue Aug 18 17:55:29 2009 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. My Rant is the same way. My old one broke, it saved the pictures in a really random order. When I got the new one, it saves the pictures in almost the right order, some of them still get mixed with older pictures. I think it might have to do with the times or days the pictures were taken or what the picture looks like. I noticed pictures of the same events are always saved together. Try saving your pictures to the memory card instead. Mine all stay in the right order.

Is it possible to unlock a Lg Rumor or Samsung Rant to work on the Verizon network?
Q. Hey all, i was wondering if i could unlock a Lg Rumor or Samsung Rant onto my current Verizon network.

A. All phones can be unlocked. You can use any phone that is compatible with the provider. I believe Verizon used CDMA technology so any CDMA unlocked phone will work. Good telephone stores unlock phones for $15-20 and only takes 5 minutes.

For some phones, such as the Samsung SPH-A460, if you are roaming, press the 1 key, and then press the Send/Talk key or the Menu/OK key. For other phones, such as the Samsung SPH-N400, if you are roaming, select Roam Call, press the 1 key, and then press the Send/Talk key or the Menu/OK key. sp3180

A. I have the Elite, only had it for a month and so far I don't have any complaints. It really depends what you are looking for in a phone and what kind of plan you have with sprint. If you want a basic messenger phone: The Incognito and The Elite would be good candidates. I don't know to much about too much about the Incognito. But i have heard more good things about it, than bad. Here a link to the a review for it on CNET. Sanyo Incognito: The Elite is a good Messenger phone. The outer screen is a "Touchscreen" where you can look at pictures, check your email and texts and make calls( from you Contact/ Speed dial list) without opening the phone. Though, you can not send a text or an email through this screen. Other than that, it just… [cont.]
