I read another post on this issue, but few replies. Has anybody found a way to deal with this without using additional phone and music apps? I just got the phone and couldn't believe it when I tried to take a pic while listening to music and it shut the music off. I figured I had to be doing something wrong. I mean, this is some phone, but the Mytouch 3g I just retired could do both at the same time!

HELP!:thinking::(
 
Well I've since found more ridiculous functionality issues- like not being able to take a pic while on a call? What?! Seriously? This is insane. I got the Camera 360 app, which seems to allow me to make a call and take pics simulataneously, but there are probs w/it (I've used it in the past). For one there's seems to be no default setting that allows me to open 360 to immediately take a photo- I first must choose mode/type. THat's not helpful when wanting to take a spontaneous picture. Especially of wildlife or something that's likely to be gone quickly.
I'm not so happy with this phone.
I also can't believe that using the web while on the phone is a no-go. Another thing my archaic Mytouch could do that the Galaxy cannot. With the mytouch I could take a pic and email it to whoever I was talking to on the phone so they could see what I was talking about as we spoke.

I'm just not getting how the Galaxy manages to lack so many basic functions.
