Samsung GT-S5230 Caller ID

[ColinX]

Hello Evryone!

I have recently obtained the Samsung GT-S5230.

I am still adjusting to it after having a Sony-Ericsson P900.

When looking at photos that I have taken and are in the phone memory, I get an option to set as Caller ID.

Please would someone explain this to me. Does it mean that if I choose it as a caller ID, when that person calls me, the photo shows as an indication of who is calling me?

If this is so, it does not function. However, as the instruction manual is not very explicit and does not appear to cover this aspect, I am wondering if it applies to a call from my phone that would show the photo as the ID emananating from my phone?

Thank you for taking the time to read this question.

(PS - What is a "Poll Option" mentioned in the Additional Options, please?)

I think that Caller ID is not a feature of the phone but it is for your wireless service. So you will have to call your carrier and ask about caller ID and if it's already on there then ask for technical support as it's obviously not working.I havent seen a phone with a caller ID feature built into the phone, however with that said, often times features such as caller ID gets dropped off customer accounts for various reasons.

Gonzo,
Thank ytou for that.
Your explanation makes sense both of my inability to apply the photo to the caller and to the fact that it is not covered in the user manual!

I shall forget about it and carry on with my learning curve!
