Samsung F210 case and headphone adapter

Accessories found for the F210.

Cases:

I can't seem to find the original case that I bought 5 years ago that has the nice snap. They all have magnetic clasps, oh well. Interestingly, there are plenty of open plastic holsters on the market still.

Bought this: http://www.amazon.com/Fashionable-Vertical-Protective-Carrying-T-mobile/dp/B002Q44UTK/ref=sr_1_37?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1347037813&sr=1-37&keywords=samsung+juke

This looks pretty ugly but strong: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Samsung-SCH-U470-Juke-Black-Stitch-Pouch-/270701790340?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item3f07158484

This is cheap and the right design but brown: http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Brown-Leather-Pouch-SCH-U470/dp/B0013ALA64/ref=pd_cp_cps_0 Note Samsung part number WT17200000156

Here it is in black but for $20. Note also has a Samsung part number too http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Black-Leather-Pouch-SCH-U470/dp/B0011WEOFS/ref=sr_1_10?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1347120604&sr=1-10&keywords=Samsung+u470+leather

Here's a nice one that I'll probably buy: http://www.daydeal.com/product.php?productid=20657

Headphone adapters:

The F210 strangely does not have a headphone jack. You have to plug into the multifunction jack at the bottom.

bought this, looks like it's OEM: http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-SCH-R410-SPH-M310-SGH-T339-AAET503CBEBSTD/dp/B002MUUNEE/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1347121303&sr=8-1&keywords=samsung+audio+adapter Update: The company that sent this did not send the part shown. Consequently, it does not fit into the recessed hole at the bottom of the phone. I could probably make it fit by filing away some of the plastic on the connector body.

bought this, it was cheap: http://www.amazon.com/SAMSUNG-ADAPTER-ETERNITY-BEHOLD-BLACKJACK/dp/B001KYJ80I/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1347121303&sr=8-2&keywords=samsung+audio+adapter Update: In retrospect, this one screamed incompatible but I didn't see it. Due to the recessed hole at the bottom of the phone, the body of the "Micro USB" connector on this one is too bulky. Some of my chargers have the same problem; clearly some phones including my Juke don't have any problem with the size of the backshell part of the connector.

didn't buy this, because it was a horrific $4 (and it didn't have my exact model in the list of phones it was compatible with, although how different could it be). Looks pretty good really: http://www.amazon.com/Hands-Free-Highlight-Eternity-Impression-Comeback/dp/B002S5R4IG/ref=pd_luc_sbs_02_04_t_lh

Update 1: Now I'm looking for a way to plug in a standard cell wired headset, the 2.5mm kind.

There's this one, which is an OEM breakout box for the connector. It seems to have 2 types of headphone jacks and one extender connector for the MicroUSB, a fact which frustrates customers wanting to use the data port and charge at the same time: http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Multi-Adapter-2-5mm-AAET554CBE/dp/B002OT3RB4/ref=sr_1_54?ie=UTF8&qid=1348456185&sr=8-54&keywords=samsung+2.5mm+adapter. Note that the Samsung part number is AAET554CBE

The picture on this one looks to be OEM, but given how I got screwed ordering the 3.5mm, can I trust it? http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-i617-S20Pin-2-5mm-Adapter/dp/B001GV0CPA/ref=pd_cp_e_2

Here's another one. It doesn't show my phone model#, and some other reviewer said that certain adapters are not compatible with each other so maybe this one won't work: http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-SGH-T349-SGH-T749-SGH-T559-SGH-T469/dp/B002N8J89G/ref=pd_cp_e_1

samsung juke all sounds off mode selected

I went through a period of time where my phone didn't ring, vibrate, or anything. When I was finally scrolling through my ringtones trying to get one to play, I got the popup message "All Sounds Off Mode Selected". WTF? So, I somehow got into this mode. With the help of a googled forum post, I found that when that popup was visible, if I fiddled with the volume buttons I would get a control that allowed me to select a variety of modes, from all off to vibrate only to some others that I haven't yet tried yet. Not sure how I got in that mode, but it's clearly not accessable through the tools menu! Here's the link, which isn't exactly clear on exactly what mode this works in, but it was enough info to stumble into the solution:

Opening up the Juke

Mainly keys to getting the photos off of the thing with USB, although many people are interested in how to put ringtones on with USB:

There was a very manual process that I looked up once that I seem to have forgotten.

Long instructions on how to use something called BitPim are here: http://cellphoneforums.net/samsung/t261161-new-sch-u470-verizon-juke.html

A short post about how to reset the MTP setting to USB, similar to as described as one step in the above, is here: http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/592398

This cached page of a yahoo tech forum has, among the hilarious pleas, a hint that it might be possible to swap the MTP drivers on your PC: http://74.125.95.132/search?q=cache:QbDuwb5jsQwJ:tech.yahoo.com/sq%3Fprod%3DSamsung%2520Juke%26start%3D310+verizon+juke+MTP&cd=5&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=us

more to come hopefully
