Samsung T159
Key specs
Critic consensus
“Sometimes you just need a good, solid device for making calls, and the Samsung t159 is it. The humble flip phone doesn't offer much in the way of style, but it gets the calling basics right, and for the right price. (It also makes you wonder why every phone doesn't sound this good.) Although extra features like T-Mobile's visual voice mail and voice commands give the phone more verve, Samsung stopped short of some other helpful mainstays, like a separate headset jack, a larger, higher-resolution screen, and a more nuanced OS menu.”

Hi there. Are you sure you aren't low on batt or have your battery nearly drained? If not, I suggest you contact Samsung first or maybe go to a nearby cell phone shop and ask what the issue might be, that's if you still don't want to go to Wind.
