To Diana…i also heard that metropcs is also coming out with another touch screen and that is why they took off the shelves the finese, but i have no idea which phone it is going to be…one of the first sites that normally announce new phones is phonearena.com, that is how sometimes i find out about new phones…

Heeeeellllp! Please! OK I was ready to buy Metro PCS (my carrier, yes I am cheap) Finesse this past weekend and they took them off the shelves (or a least in Dallas, TX they did). I see that a new one is coming out but before I pay 300.00 for a phone, I want to make sure I know how to use it…any hints on a place I can learn about the new one? And will this one allow 3rd party apps? Will they offer any rebates?

Any and all assistance will be greatly appreciated. Thank you!!!

Hey, I’ve had my motorola qa30 phone with MetroPcs service for about 9 months now and I love it! One problem I wanna know is I used to be able to set sounds as my alert tone, Now when I try to set sounds as alert ringtones it says its unable I just wonder what could be wrong now? Any help or suggestions would be great! thanks

That’s the issue Ana; there is no way to download free games or applications into the Finesse. Samsung has decided to follow MetroPCS in proprietary software. That means that MetroPCS restricts Samsung Finesse users to download third-party software so that the Finesse user only downloads from the @metro store and limited to buy the applications and games offered in the store.

No third-party apps which means your limited.

I have just purchased a Hauwei m750 phone and want to download mp3s to it. When I plug it into my usb port, it tells me that I need to install the driver disk. I never received a disk with this phone and don’t understand what to do. If anybody knows where to get the software or download needed for my pc/dumbphone, PLEASE HELP…

I agree with Ruben. MetroPCS and Samsung should have re-thought their decision before releasing the Finesse. As Ruben put it, it’s obvious that Samsung and MetroPCS should have allowed third-party apps into their phone. This is really messed up!

You would think after the iPhone was released cellular coverages (mainly Metro) would at least be smart enough to allow third-party. I have used the Finesse and it was a horrible experiance. What’s the point of buying a phone when you can’t run third-party??

Yes, I acknowledge the advantage of a touch screen mobile device, however the Finesse represents a failure device. You would think Samsung would have already thought of this before releasing that phone. I will recommend to you this, go for the Samsung Code! Same price, Windows Mobile, Third-party.

I’VE BEEN WITH METRO PCS FOR ABOUT A YEAR. JUST PURCHASED SAMSUNG FINESSE. SHORTLY AFTER I DISCOVERED THAT NOT ONLY THAT I COULDN’T DOWNLOAD THIRD PARTY APPS, BUT OUT OF ALL THINGS, I CAN’T WATCH YOUTUBE ON THIS PHONE. THIS IS CRAZY! YOU CAN’T VIEW YOUTUBE ON THIS PHONE?? IT’S LIKE GETTING A PAPER CUT TO THE BACK OF A FINGER. ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE. METRO NEEDS COFFEE AND WAKE UP.
