I need to format my samsaung e250 but cant

Don't know much about the Samsung phone; Can you put music on the 1 Gb memory card from another source (like a computer) and have it recognized by the phone?
Does the phone require music in a particular format? For example, if the phone recognizes .mp3 music files, but all your music is in Ogg Vorbis (.ogg) files, you will not be able to play them on the phone.

1) Find the Samsung phone manual (online?) and see if it requires music files to be in one format, or another.

2) Try loading music, in the proper format, from different sources onto your memory card.

Best of luck!

2. Press OK to enter the Main Menu.
3. Within Settings/Tools select Memory then press OK.
4. Press 3 to select Card Memory.
5. Press the Right Soft Key under Format.

7. Connect the USB cable between the phone and your PC.

9. Press OK again to confirm disabling voice calls.

Hey! samsung SGH-E250 doesn't support 4GB memory card. Try a 2GB or 1GB memory card.

WHILE LISTEN FM OF PHONE, IF ANY CALL COME, THE FM WILL NOT CONTINUE AFTER CALL. WHY?

I had the same problem and I tried everything. I couldn't think of anything else to do so I just turned my phone off and back on again. When I went back to the memory card menu on my phone all the folders that I lost re-appeared. I don't know if it would work on other phones but it's worth a try!

Hi By default, it may go to the phone memory unless it asked you where you want to put your download file. If they don't ask then it will save your file into your phone memory by default. go to Music -->Audio or Music or scrol down to Memory Card. You need to format your memory card first when you first insert it into your phone then after that you can perform the downloading so you will b able to see where the download file goes. Good Luck

Ok, for 1 and 2, format the mp3 player and turn it on and let it load. MAKE SURE it is in USB mode called "MSC" on the player before you format it.

Now for 3, you have to drag and drop your music from the library to the bar on the side then press sync.

If this doesn't work, respond and I will get back to you as soon as possible. Thank you and have a wonderful day.

Did you try to format the card in the device thru Windows Media Player, or Rhapsody? If so, try formatting it thru My Computer instead. My Computer>Device Name>Right Click and select format. It is most likely NOT a virus if you have only put music on the device. It is most likely a corrupt file, or a database error. Best of Luck.

- As with nearly ALL sansa e250 problems, formating it will bring it back to normal. 1. Connect it to your computer. 2. Open 'My Computer' and right-click the device. 3. choose 'format...' and then 'quick format'. 4. If you haven't done so, upgrade the firmware: -Find the firmware on the Sandisk home page. Don't use the wrong one, though. If you have a Rhapsody version, choose the e200r player. Download the .zip file and extract its contents (right-click, 'extract all'). Then connect your player to your computer and drag the extracted file to your player's drive. Now when you turn your player on, it'll undergo the firmware update. You can also update your firmware by connecting to Rhapsody with your player hooked up and following the firmware update instructions when the window comes up. If the firmware update window doesn't appear, then you have the latest firmware to date. 5. Test out the player and see if this method worked. If not, you may want to send it back sandisk or return to the retailer you bought it from.

you should try formating it. when you plug it into your computer... go to my computer right click on your mp3 player name under " devices with removable storage" click format. make sure nothing is checked. and then press start. wait till its done, and it should work. good luck. i can use some to..
