The unlocking button is in a very awkward location and I heard somewhere you can set it so it's like the iphone where you just slide it?
I hate how it cycles through the lame default pictures on the lock screen. What causes it to switch and is there any way to set it to just one, or preferably my own picture? My friend saw the sunflower on my phone and asked if I was gay.

If you find the button difficult to deal with (depending on what kind of protector you have, if any) you can always just slide the keyboard partway out and it'll come out of the locked screen.

Unfortunately, we have been unable to solve the dreaded locked wallpapers fiasco...

Wow, really. You're telling me this $300 phone does not have the ability to set the lock screen wallpaper nor come with any complete games on it? What was samsung thinking.
I don't have internet on my impression and sometimes I click on the icons that open up a browser(might charge my parents bill) anyone have this problem?

There's a handy search feature at the top. 

And yes, there is an easy way to disable the internet capable features of your phone without affecting texting and/or MMS messages.

He is telling you to search using the search box at the top of the forum. What is useless about that? In any case here is what you were looking for.

I suggest you at least take some time to look at the stickies of the forum.

Yup, that is what we are telling ya.  The impression is limited on what you can customize.

It doesn't make it useless, it just shows that we have lots of useful info and people with questions should check first before asking a question that has already been answered multiple times.  Welcome to the forums, helping yourself to the information already available is the first step to becoming an intelligent Impression user.  Smiley

I've noticed the charging port, has a headphones icon. Who has earphones that fit into it?  My ipod earphones will certainly not fit in there.

And I looked up samsung impression games online where you can download games. How exactly do you get it onto your phone? Thanks.

The charging port is also the audio port but you need the adapter cable that will allow you to connect a standard minijack headphone cord into it.  You can get one on ebay for about $0.99 usually.

As for the games, without internet you have to use our special install method.  USE THE SEARCH BOX to answer your question.  If you would take the time to read the sticky posts in each sub-forum you would answer your own questions well before having to ask them.

I searched ebay for the audio adapter today.  One sells for $1.48, or you can buy 2 for a total of $1.69.  Both options are "Buy it Now" so no worries about being bid sniped.

As for the wallpaper, I am able to take a picture from my prior cell phone (saved on the microSD card), but it reverts back to the default picture you described.

Long-time Cingular/AT&T user; I've owned & used these devices, in order from oldest to newest: LG CE500, Motorola ROKR E1, Samsung Sync, HTC 8525, & Samsung Impression [AT&T replacing it with the LG Vu Plus].

I upgraded due to AT&T's rude desire to require the $30/month smartphone data plan!  So, I have an unlimited messaging plan only.

New problem, the bottom left of my screen (vertical) squeaks a bit when I press on it. I just got this phone and the ATT store doesn't have anymore impressions. Anyway I can fix this myself?

Probably not.  But if you just got it, take it back and make the ATT store get you a new one.  Just because they don't have any in stock doesn't mean that they can ignore they're return policy.  Or better yet, try another store in your area.
