    Cds-DRM has a bunch of sub folders all with the + sign next to them
    Api
    audio
    DESC
    and a bunch more...but none of the plus signs expand and if I try to right click and add to say Audio or Media....I am given the choices of save, hexdump, over right or delete but not add
    I am looking at the box the phone came in....says Samsung SCH-a850 on the box

    i dunno about that cable, use the link in my tutorial to buy one, or search for the particular model of the cable i listed. for the internet, the phone sucks for what little internet the phone get it sucks, since it costs minutes though, i'd say wait for nights/weekends when it's free.

    i can't tell just by looking at that picture of the cable if it'll work, sorry.

    Edit> Sean, u wanted to know when i bought my phone it was November 2005

    Do the samsung a950 and a850 have the same charging ports?
    if so the cord should work?!?

    and the cable i brought is a PCB113VBEB-STD or PCB113VBEB/STD the same as you mentioned.

    I asked because it does not look the same and i was unsure and didnt kno if i should cancel the order or not

    The link to my data cable

    if the model number is the same, and considering on yourwireless source it's listed as compatible for both, i would assume it is, i believe that ebay auction you bought your cable from could just be using a stock photo of any old phone-usb cable, considering all the pictures for the auctions by that seller are the same style of shot 'a stock' photo as you will.

    you'll still need to download the drivers and bitpim and everything, but yeah that cable should work (according to the item description in that auction) if not, send it back as false description.

    let me get this right.

    copy the file to your pc. then add .jpg if that doesn't work, then try not renaming it to anything, but right clicking it and saying open w/ (whatever image viewer/editor you have) then when in the viewer/editor goto save as and then select the file type.

    get what i'm saying?

    then it's probably on a different system software/platform, so i'm not sure about that one. If i had access to one of those i could fool with it a bit, but you might have to toy w/ some things to figure it out....

    Your ringtone instructions are greatly appreciated and worked perfectly! Thank you! Is there a way to add photos from my computer to my Samsung SCH-A850 Verizon phone? If so, would you please give me step by step instructions?

    if it's for the background, i haven't found a way to use a full BG resolution pic that fills nicely, so i just use a Black and White, White background and then whatever in Black.
