Samsung Blackjack Tip: Secret OEM Tech Support Telephone Number
Today I encountered an issue with my Samsung Blackjack. I was not able to sync with my laptop’s Outlook data. It gave me all kinds of trouble.
I tried to reinstall Microsoft Active Sync using the CD that came with the Samsung Blackjack when I bought from Cingular months ago. It had problems installing and failed each time. So since I already uninstalled Active Sync on my laptop I tried to reinstall Active Sync 4.5 from the web. Still no luck.
Next I called 1-866-CINGULAR which is now AT&T Wireless. And their clumsy representatives made me go through hoops to get to tier 2 tech support — only to be told they will transfer me to Samsung directly. After which I had to go through another qualifying round of troubleshooting.
I finally go to Tier 2 Tech Support at Samsung for the Samsung Blackjack. They gave me some instructions and told me to call back after going through the protocol. So now, I have the direct telephone number to bypass the 45+ minutes of chardes I just went through with the useless gatekeepers at AT&T Wireless and Samsung general support.
Here’s the Tier 2 Tech Support Telephone Number at Samsung directly for the Samsung Blackjack i607:
1-888-987-4357
I hope you never have to use this number, but it’s worth bookmarking just in case!

Hi my name is Fendi, I am from Wireless Communications
I was wondering if you have voice activated dialling as an option on the handset below
Not voice commands but voice activated dialling?
SAMSUNG BLACKJACK2
Please reply to my email as soon as possible in regards to this.
Thank you

From my understanding, the BJ does NOT have voice activated dialing capabilities.
