Samsung FlipShot (Part 2!)

first pictures from my new phone! (click to see full size quality)

How to get ringtones/pictures onto/off a flipshot (sch-u900)
(see comments for alternate methods!!!)

1) buy a data cable:
Total: $12.74 shipped
2) plug the phone into your pc and install the drivers from the cd (don't run the installer program, just let windows do the driver work)
3) go to your favoite torrent site, download and install QPST
4) go to the qpst folder and start -> qpst configuration
click the ports tab and add all ports until one shows up with the phone







5) go back to the qpst and run -> EFS explorer
you can now see all the crap in your phone!
6) add ringtones by dragging them into /brew/mod/mr (then restart phone)
copy pictures from
/brew/mod/108









(from Mark_Venture on howardforums.com)
"""In Phone's memory....
Pictures are stored in /brew/mod/10888
Ringtones are stored in /brew/mod/mr
Videos are stored in /brew/mod/10890
Sounds (non-ringtones) are stored in /brew/mod/18067

Like the U620, you can just add .MID or .MP3 files to the /brew/mod/MR folder, restart the phone, and use them as ring tones."""

New Phone - Samsung FlipShot (Part 1?)

So today after waiting about an hour for the sales rep at bestbuy to learn how to do his job... I got a new phone!



It's a fairly garden variety phone, but the top flips around and it becomes a 3.0 megapixel camera. Far and away the best picture quality I've seen on a phone... but not up to par with my dad's 8 megapixel cam.

Anyway I've already connected it to bluetooth to see what would happen...





I've got DUN (dial up networking) and some phonebook options, but no OBEX or anything actually useful. When I get it cracked I'll post a new, uh, post.
