V60s Problem
Have any of you VZW techs heard of any software problems with the V60s? I've been having weird problems with the phone. Now the newest problem (not software related) is the charging port doesn't work all the time.
Any ideas?
I swear I have the worst luck with cell phones, I treat them great, but since I've been with Verizon, a little over 2 years now, I've had 8 different phones, they keep having problems.

I have not heard of any software problems with this phone - unless it is some very new software version. The charging port problem is a very consistent problem that Motorola phones have - it is a very poor design. What other types of problems are you having?
A word of advice - stay away from Motorola until they prove themselves again. The Kyocera, LG, Nokia, and the newer Samsung phones seem to have much better track record.

I agree. Motorola has not made a good phone since the Startac years ago. The T720/730/V60.120 models are junk in my opinion. Get a LG or Samsung- they are of much better quality and just better overall phones.

i just wanna say i must have the only working mot 720 i got mine 11/02 and it works fine

The latest software (8610_02.0F.03) seems to work well. Make sure you have that release under Settings-Phone Status-Other Info-Software. The charging port thing is a running problem, it's not a very good design IMHO, almost as bad as the Nokia 5100 series with the adapter to hook a headset in...
Otherwise, it's a solid phone. I like it. My T720 died over the weekend, and I'm using a V60s & a Timeport 270c.
Best of luck.

My V60S has software 8610_02.0F.02 -- How does one go about updating to the .03 version you mentioned?

Wow...8 phones in two years. Any of those due to your own fault, or the phones just didn't work right?
Just curious.

Well...
1. LG 510 - Purchased phone, wouldn't keep charge for more than an hour, changed batteries three times, still same problem. Traded for next phone...
2. Motorola Timeport 8767 - Loved this phone, used it for quite a while actually was my backup phone until the thing just stopped working.
3. Motorola T720 - Had four (4) of these kept having problems with it shutting off, screen going either all black, all white, or all blue, wouldn't keep a charge for more than 2 hours (just standby). Finally convinced a VZW store rep to let me change to a different phone..
4. Audiovox CDM 9500 - My favorite of any phone I've had so far, with the exception of how much battery power it ate (solved with an extended battery) it was my favorite...

Don't know how I forgot this...
I'm already on my second V60s the first one I had kept shutting off and/or not ringing.

Yeah, its quite a pain in the wallet.
Newest V60s problem...I'll plug in the charger, and when it actually feels like recognizing theres a charger plugged in, it'll say Unable to Charge.
