Marghanita,
Just guessing here, but I think pretty much all phones built this century
are WAP capable. As such, I would think a minimal HTML file would work.
Thanks Martin,
The phone has a browser for Internet Access, but I have not enabled the
Internet Access. I gave an HTML file a go, including <HTML> in the first
line of a file, as you suggested. I tried a file name with a .HTML
extension and one without in the "Other" folder.
The phone comes back with "unsupported file type" for both.
There are folders of various categories. These are video, images, sound,
other and a few more, including browser, which are not visible through the
access files option on the phone.

Try something like
<HTML>
<PRE>
Hello, world! This is some plain text.
</PRE>
</HTML>
plopped into helloworld.html

My U9 phone snapped in half on saturday and I am now the owner of a Samsung
Citrus/Metro/GT-C3520
<http://ramin.com.au/linux/**samsung-citrus.shtml<http://ramin.com.au/linux/samsung-citrus.shtml>
I am trying to figure out what text format the phone can display/file
extension it will recognise - without much success.
The Samsung website suggests I download the manual - which I expect is the
same as the printed one, which came with the phone.
However, it did offer the manual in two formats PDF and DjVu (complete with
option to download viewer). This intrigued me further:
DjVu is supported by a number of multi-format document viewers and e-book
reader software on Linux (Okular, Evince)
..
Format licensing
DjVu is an open file format.[4] The file format specification is
published as well as source code for the reference library.[4] The original
authors distribute an open source implementation named "DjVuLibre" under
the GNU General Public License. The ownership rights to the commercial
development of the encoding software have been transferred to different
companies over the years, including AT&T, LizardTech, Celartem and Caminova.
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/**DjVu <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DjVu>>
Though I am still at a loss of how to create a text file, that is
recognised and can be viewed on the phone.
Any comments?
