  • WhatsApp Messenger can be downloaded from Play Store (Google)

  • With S6790 you have to wait after the double tap, do not expect an immediate response.This applies to all apps on Fame Lite.

  • No front camera

  • 443MB

  • no

  • galaxy young is far better than galaxy fame lite>>buy galaxy young

  • yes you mean the front camera .. actually there is no front camera in this phone..front camera is in galaxy fame s6812-s6810 not fame lite

  • My s6790 galaxy phone has frizzed out of nowhere CAN SOMEONE HELP PLEASE

  • How do I toggle the camera so that I can take a selfie and see my face on the screen and so that when using skype the person I'm talking to can see my face.

  • The best stand by phone I ever had. It's cheap and one can do most of the things my S4 can do. Use it in potential danger areas. The battery live is also a big plus. Okay not as fast, basic camera, very little storage space and thinks that makes this phone a cheaper option, makes this phone still a fantasia buy.

  • does it make calls with facebook messenger

  • Galaxy fame lite isthe slowest of them all, its frustrating....how does one move apps to the sd card from fone?

  • do u guys realy like this phone if yes provide a better options which phone provides tou with

  • to download whatsupp you need to have a Gmail account and be logged in with it in your device . Then then go to play store under apps you select free you will Ln find your whatsupp there

  • i have recently purchased gt-s6790n. i need one help regaring this phone.i always see the lock option during a call and it says double tap to unlock. is it a default option or it has any settings. so kindly please help me to find the way to know the feature. hopefully u will answer my question asap. thank you.

  • I purchased this phone 3 days ago. What is surprising is that from no where and without my knowledge I came to realise that the phone could not ring. I checked sound profile and reset the phone factory setting without any success. My only available option to restore normalcy is to visit Samsung Care Shop. However, I would not recommend this device for prospective buyers. Consider Galaxy Trend instead far much better for a little higher cost but worth your hard earned money. Any help from the forum would be highly appreciated.

  • i recently bought two of these fones fame lite gt-s6790. how should i download whatts app?

  • What is the RAM on this phone?

  • Get an antivirus and scan all files. Then do not put too many applications coz its processor speed of 850 is rather low. IF u many installed apps try to uninstal some which are useless . LASTLY AND MOST IMPORTANT download softwares ONLY from trusted sites lyk googleplay or samsung page.

  • i have got this phone too and first you must not load it too much with too music,games,movies,viruses ecc.Then you have to take care about it:you can download from playstore cleanmaster and if you use it every day you will see the improvements.try to not use it for a very long time:it is bad for your health and it is bad for your mobile too.Don't use unsafe programs and don't use your phone until it says : Low battery .Charge it well and than use it.also you can try to learn some tricks about your phone on web or in youtube.if you do all this and your phone it doesn't speeds i think you must reset it.Oh I forgot:increase your internal storage deleting unnecessary apps or files.I hope I helped you.Greetings

  • imag

  • Its nice to use but its extremely slow. Can any one help me how to speed it up...

  • hi guys ! tomorrow or today I will have my first phone and it will be samsung galaxy young or samsung galaxy fame lite S6790?Please help me to choose one of them?Who is the best for me?

  • This Phone doesn't have secondary camera meaning NO SKYPE

  • Stay far away from this one, it is Extremely slow, real danger of slitting wrists during any attempt to use google maps or other apps. You will not know to thank me if you give it a miss, but if you get it, it will be too late. Thought I will try something droid when iPhone 4s died in middle of 7.1.2 update...should have gone big instead, S4 or Mini of one of the big guns.
