Hey there! Try using a data cable to transfer files. Or what's easier is to save the photos in your SD card and use an SD card to read it in your computer.

Yes, you can unlock the Samsung S425G so it can be used with a different network other than the one it's originally locked into. There's a lot of unlocking services available online.

customer support at Tracfone should be called customer aggravation center. its not worth the time or effort. the only reason i have a tracfone is cause i dont really NEED the web access, and $7/month for voice calls is not a bad deal, but Hey, i should be able to use it in a pinch, since it is there. i downloaded (and read) the entire Samsung manual and went thru all the possible settings,

You should contact your carrier to report the issue. The problem could be on their end. Also, you should check your phone's settings. Customer service can help you with the set up as well.

If you live somewhere where signal strength, availability, and low number of dead spots are about the same between the best networks on GSM and CDMA (imo ATT on GSM & Verizon on CDMA), then I agree with Grindale. I would choose the Samsung S425G over the other two. Another minus for the Samsung R455C compared to the other two - 1.2 megapixel camera vs. 2 mp on the other two phones. But if you're in a situation like I am, where one of the two networks is significantly stronger than the other, then go with the strongest network and forget everything else on the phone. imo They're all good phones with approx 4 star ratings on just about every review sites plus good reviews from all the pro reviewers. If you can't get a decent signal, all you can do is take pics and listen to mp3 - not why I have a phone. If like me, your strongest network is CDMA/Verizon, then you go with the only CDMA phone here, the R455C. If it's GSM/ATT you have two options to choose from & the best of those appears to be the S425G. I travel around the country a lot, which makes it even important for me to go with CDMA/Verizon. I have talked to many other frequent travelers and they all say the same - Verizon has the best coverage, by far, of all the providers. Not all CDMA providers, just Verizon. T-Mobile has much less coverage than Verizon, so the next best options for domestic frequent traveling are ATT & Sprint - in my experience anyway and the many other frequent travelers I've asked.

Hmm.. Maybe the image is too large. Try sending a smaller sized image and see if the popup shows up.

Hey don. Check your log-in details. You might have been typing the wrong username or password. But if you're sure you have the correct details, there should be an option for you to reset or retrieve your password. Note that you need to have data on your phone to do it.
