i hae had my tocco for 2 weeks now and during that time have managed to have 1 phone conversation in full as the pther conversations have been cut short due to the phone dropping calls , have swapped the phone for another one cos thught it might have been dodgy piece but this one just as bad , does anyone know of software download to rectify this ? if not my tocco going back to cpw .
They wont take it back
I have kicked some butt at the cpw and they have given me 20 quid cheque for my petrol costs back and to. they have now told me to go to a different store to see an engineeer apparently if this dosent work i can swap the phone. we will wait and see
I have had 4 Toccos each has had the problem of dropping calls.
Great phone but not practical as I just cant trust it to have a conversation on.
The 4th Tocco is going back and I am awaiting the release of the Nokia E66.
samsung tocco is a good phone.im getting a pink one and ive heard that the samsung tocco is just as fun as the iphone.iphones are rubbish aparentley and they break down on you loads.This phone what im getting is way better than my friends.
if your tocco is dropping calls, then you probably have a low signal coverage for umts(3g) in your area. switch your device to gsm to get full signal. you can switch back to umts where the signal coverage is good.
It’s a known problem - needs a firmware update
I have the iphone 3g, best gadget that has ever been invented, a must buy. The samusung tocco to be compared with the iphone is a joke!
iphone 3g blows any other phone out of the water
at the moment the iphone cannot be compared to any other phone
not even the T-Mobile G1!
the iphone has everything
and what it doesnt have can be bought in the appstore!
even MMS!
its AMAZING
a MUST BUY
ive just got a samsung tocco and the phone is really good, but as people are saying about the signal i dont thing that is good at all but all u got to do is switch to gsm and switch back after like the guy has wrote above.
samsung tocco is a far bette phone. the i phone is much too big unless you hve hands the size of a tree. sure the i phone may have wifi but the toccos internet is accessable wherever you are. the i phone’s camera is pathetic and might as well not be there. the toccos music isnt far off the standard of the i phone but the toccos sound quality blows the iphones away. next we have the point that the i phone is the only phone that apple make- no experience and everyone wants it. the i phone is too common and many people have them. another problem is that it looks almost identical to the touch which is far from impressive. overall the tocco is a much better phone. the iphone focuses too deeply on certain features and is much too common.yes there are phones better then the tocco but for the money you pay for an iphone you could have something much much better. i had one and took it back a week later after i saw about 20 people in my local area with them. buying the i phone is a patetic idea. the tocco is a small phone with a great camera, music player and also has 3G. for me there is no contest and having owned both phones, the tocco is easily the better phone
