Samsung SGH-L760 Mobile Phone User Logs

[rusty]

Hi, i thought of creating a place where all of us can share info and experience with our new toy here.

So, let me start with mine:

Something happened today which prompt me to create this thread. I'm not sure if it's a random glitch, a result of the phone dropping incident, or... a common problem.

My BH100 was paired with the SGH-L760 when i tried to make a call to marc this afternoon (asking about micro SD market price). I've called him twice, and twice i couldn't hear anything, form the BH100 as well as the phone.

so...

I turned off bluetooth of the SGH-L760 without first disconnecting the device. Then made that call. During our conversation, i discovered that not only i couldn't hear him, he can't hear me as well. Both SGH-L760 and BH100 was fully charged, so i doubt its signal issue.

after the conversation, i turn the blue tooth of the SHG-L760 back on. And instead of getting the "Bluetooth activated" message, my phone rebooted. It first turn off like normal, then turn back on again. It didn't ask for PIN, and started like normal. I then tried to activate blue tooth again, this time it work and the "bluetooth activated" message appeared.

I then reestablish bluetooth connection with the BH100 and made a follow up call to marc. it worked like normal, sound was crisp and clear. I've made more calls later that day, and nothing out of the ordinary happened since.

settings:
phone visibility: off
devices: BH100
Office PC (for picture transfer)

The security for this phone is high. You need to list certain media files for bluetooth viewing manually. At first I got shocked... until I found out what's the reason. Lol

Better to have stronger security for Bluetooth.

Yup. better to have high security for Bluetooth. THese days, I've been getting files(virus) transfers. but lucky my phone always asks if I wanna recieve the file or not. Must always remember to disable bluetooth when not using it.

I've just discovered something interesting today.

Normally when i receive a call, i'll tap the button on my BH100 to "pick up the phone". Did this once when i was driving (SGH-L760 paired with BH100)

but today, since i was in the office, feeling bored, and wanting to show off, i took out my phone and press the green "make/receive call" button on the lower left when my phone rang. However, instead of having the call transfered to the BH100, it's the SGH-L760 that answered. and i had to talk through the phone the slide was up and both SGH-L760 and BH100 was paired.

no disconnection between those devices today. Probably, the distance between devices is nearer since i can now put this slim phone in my shirt pocket.

Hmm... is that because the slider was up?

This is also how it is on my Sony Ericsson W810i. Basically it makes sense as sometimes, you might have the bluetooth devices connected, but say maybe on the table or in pocket and not on your ear. So naturally when you press the recieve call button on the phone, you would like it to automatically transfer to the phone.

slider was up, meaning the phone is "compact".
slider down = elongated?

it it right? not sure about the terminology for slide phones since i've been using candy bar form phones since the first phone i had.

Oh, I think it's the other way around, since you slide the top part of the phone "up".

Okay, so it was in the compact mode when the phone rang.

Hmm.. If you are using the provided earphone, then pressing the Green button should connect the call to the earphone. For Bluetooth, shouldn't you press the button on the Bluetooth headset?
