I’ve tried messing around with my Samsung Eternity a lot since I got it and well. Samsung Cell Phone tips & tricks

Q: 1. I was reading around these forums for a while and found that you could change the LED light colors. I messed around with the settings and it was fun but I was wondering if anyone has found a way to save what you changed?  Samsung Eternity

A: After changing the color, just hit save at the bottom of the screen.

Q: 2. The menu on the left side of the screen that expands with all the widgets… As far as I can tell you can only choose some of those to remove from Settings > Display and Light > Widgets. You can’t add any applications and put them there, can you?

A: Currently, we have not hacked the touchwiz interface so we cant add widgets…were hoping samsung will includ the ability to add widgets in the next software update.

Somebody asked me how to turn off the Samsung Eternity’s 3G, so they will benefit to save battery life from that.  Samsung Eternity

I found the service menu to turn off Samsung Eternity’s 3g.  This is a potentially dangerous operation so do it at your own risk. Samsung Cell Phone tips & tricks
From the main screen select Dial then enter:
*2767*2878#
From the first screen press the back button (middle button on phone).  Press back button 2 more times or until it show debug as item no 1.  Now select option 8 and then option 4 (change state).  Now you can select option 2 (WCDMA) or option 3 (GSM).  I’m not sure if this really works yet because I don’t always get 3g at my house.

This is the admin menu.  It makes it much easier to turn off 3g.  Use the code *#6984125*# from the dial pad and choose option 3 (network & call settings) then 2 (network mode).

I have managed to figure out how to change the Samsung Eternity’s decibel(db) numbers, here’s the tutotorial of sorts especially for the non-tech savvy Samsung Eternity users. Samsung Cell Phone tips & tricks

Samsung Eternity tips – Changing Volume

For head phones try entering *#197328640#, [8]audio, [2]ear config, [4]av-qtune, [1]ear mp3 vol, you can increase each db to a setting you prefer. 0 is vol 1, 1 is vol 2 and so on. I have mine set at
0. -36.0 db
1. -29.0 db
2. -22.0 db
3. -15.0 db
4. -9.0 db
5. -2.0 db
6. 5.0 db
It is louder than stock. You can make it louder but be careful.
For speaker mp3 [8] audio, [3] spk config, [4] av-qtune, [1] spk mp3 vol
the same applies but don’t set same as ear. Increase little by little to your desire. Again be careful and don’t blow out the speaker. Samsung Eternity
