robinsonb Ponderer Join Date: Nov 2003 Posts: 65		WAV ringers skipping for anyone after 2003 update? I have an Austin Powers.wav file as my ringer and since doing the update it skips. I changed to my other favorite, Benny Hill, and that skips as well. At first I thought it had to the vibrate and ring setting, but changing that didn't help. I reset the phone, thinking it could be a memory issue, but that didn't work either. Anyone else having trouble with this?

After all this time preparing the update, it looks like there are a number of small issues. tsk, tsk... __________________ "I have no special talents, I am only passionately curious" - Albert Einstein Mike.Temporale.com www.MobileJaw.com

It amazes me how Samsung so underpowered this phone and how Verizon, who takes forever to test things, never does so in the real world.

I didn't put any spaces in the names, and the files are relatively small. Also, what do you consider to be 'a lot of contacts'? I have ~800 contacts and caller ID works pretty fast for me. I have had my phone for about two weeks with SmartPhone 2003. Verizon did the upgrade same day I got the phone.
