Error messages appear when launching the FM radio

The FM radio application on your Samsung mobile device

uses the headset cable as an antenna. Without a headset

connected, the FM radio will be unable to receive radio

stations. To use the FM radio, first ensure that the headset

is properly connected. Next, scan for and save the available

radio stations.
If you still cannot use the FM radio after performing these

steps, try accessing your desired station with another radio

receiver. If you can hear the station with another receiver,

your device may require service. Contact a Samsung Service

Centre.

Error messages appear when opening music files

Some music files may not play on your Samsung mobile

device for a variety of reasons. If you receive error messages

when opening music files on your device, try the following:

Free some memory by transferring files to a PC or deleting

●

files from your device.

Ensure that the music file is not Digital Rights Management

●

(DRM)-protected. If the file is DRM-protected, ensure that

you have the appropriate licence or key to play the file.

Ensure that your device supports the file type.

●
