samsung galaxy centura

I got this Samsung Galaxy Centura Tracfone a few months and I can't get a phone connection once I get 40 or so miles out of the St. Louis area. The phone works fine in town. My old Motorola Tracfone worked fine even out in the boonies. Is there a setting that I can adjust or should I call...

My phone calls people on its own. Happens 2-3 times a day. What can I do.

I am desperately trying to figure out how to forward my calls from my Samsung Galaxy Centura to another cell phone... Any insight? Please and Thank You!

Hello! I've been lurking here for a while finding solutions to the various problems I've had with my Centura - my very first "smart" phone! - since I bought it in December of 2013 through Tracfone. This one has me stumped, though. I used to be able to record video clips using this phone...

My Samsung centura every time I put the battery in it turns on and off by itself and won't stay on. I tried a new battery and it didnt do anything. And it won't stay on long enough for me to factory reset it. Help please!

Any time I try to send a picture lately in a message the phone says its to big and resizes it and it comes out all distorted. These picture where taken with the phones camera.

My phone only charges when I connect it to my laptop. It used to give me a mass storage option but it doesn't anymore. I tried using the debugging thing but that didn't help me any. Can someone help me figure out the problem please?

Hello, I finally made the switch to the straight talk network when walmart had the centura for only $30 on black friday. I like the phone; does everything I need it to but within a week or so of owning it I started getting notifications for system updates. I hit the restart and install...

I have a centura (tracfone) that I power off each night. Sometimes it powers itself back on. It is very annoying when that tracfone blue screen and the tracfone sound wakes me up. The phone operates just fine otherwise. Anybody heard of this? Any ideas on the cause and fix?

How do you add a widget on the Centura? The standard way of touching empty spot on screen doesn't work. Where do I go to add an app as a widget?

How do you set your own ringtone? For example, if I want to use a favorite song instead of their basic ringtones. I assume I have to get music into the phone first. Not sure how to do that, but once that is accomplished, how do I then make it a ringtone. Thanks much!

Title says it all. I'm a new smartphone user (the Galaxy Centura is enroute as I type) - and trying to make decisions about accessories - particularly the SDHC card. As I understand, max size is 32GB -- which I'm leaning towards. Don't plan on using the device as much more than a phone, but...
