can u still access the web with this phone?

Are you guys really selling those phones? I mean, do plp actually buy them? especially the green one... yuck!

just wondering if anyone knew of any thin samsung flip phones coming out for verizon?? i heard some of the phones on phonearena.com aren't coming out anymore, even though it's listed as "coming soon". let me know what you guys have heard. thanks!

I opened a new customer account on 11/20, due to reception not good where I live, I ported my number back out to Cingular. I still got charged $175 ETF. I called CS to ask why, they told me I also have to return the equipment I bought when I opened service. BUT, I cut out the UPC label from the box to send in the rebate. Now they say I have to pay the ETF because the product is non returnable since I cut the box or reactivate the account//sorry

Same thing is happening with my brand new waterproof turd, the phone crashes when sending text messages. My 8300 did this had it replace three time now this phone freezes on me. I'm really getting fed up with running to the verizon store to have my phones replace!! I paid 419 bucks for the phone now I have to get a FRU!!!!!!!!! only to hope it works. many of friends who dont have verizon dont go through this crap they buy a phone and it works!! 👿

i really dont know what to do some of my friends with cingular and sprint phones are two or more years old and still work perfect.
And I a waterproof phone that wont stop crashing on me 👿

for years people have whined about how VZW has disabled OBEX on phones.

have you guys noticed that on the new LG's (vx9900 and vx8600) that Verizon Wireless has ENABLED most OBEX profiles? This is not by mistake, it is intentional. Verizon Wireless doenst want to make a big public announcment about it but expect that future high ends phone will have most OBEX profiles enabled.

THIS IS NOT I REPEAT NOT to say who is better. Can anyone tell me were I can find a map of just verizons network coverage? Not theirs and their roaming area (extended network). Just using sprint as an example here. But if you go to their website they show their network then in another color their digital roaming network and in another color their analog roaming coverage!

I am looking for a phone with excellent reception and call quality.

I have tried so far: lg 8100,8300,krazr and now have the 9900. Are there any phone with better reception than these? I may return the 9900 and get something else if it is out there. Any help would be appreciated.

Woah! Are you guys having a change of heart?

Take a look at the new LG enV VX-9900:

Bluetooth®
Bluetooth Version: 1.2
Profiles Supported: headset, hands-free, dial-up networking, A2DP (Stereo), object push for vCard, serial port, file transfer, audio/video remote control, basic printing, human interface device
Save up to 20 Bluetooth Pairings

HOW AWESOME!

and... confirmed reports of OBEX for almost everything -
From HoFo, OBEX: No edits needed for OBEX. You do not have access to the ringtones, but you have access to all the other media files on the phone and the microSD card.
OBEX folders: MyPictures, MySounds, MyVideos, SdPictures, SdSounds, SdVideos

how much are you guys paying for ringtones?

i have the verizon tone deluxe application.

i have the chocolate phone and i saw the prices is $2.99 per song. i think thats more than what i paid for when i had the razr. i could be wrong, i don't remember.

or is there a free way to ringtones?

thank you!

If Sprint is such a great company with their WEB, Powervision, Data, why are they doing so bad?

Sprint Vs VZW
Adds 233k vs 1.8mil
Churn 2.4% vs 1.24%

Their port ratio is 12 to 1 with VZW. So 12 Sprint/Nextel Customers come to Verizon for every 1 Verizon Customer that goes to Sprint/Nextel.

So even with Standard UI's, Lack of OBEX, Limited Data 5GB or 10GB (depends on market) Verizon must be doing something right.

Just tried works excellent. Transferred 160 contacts to my phone in 10 minutes.

I don't know if any of you guys listen to that show, but he brought an interesting and very valid point. Basically he has a phone with Cingular and a phone with Verizon. He does so because Cingular has the best phones and Verizon the best service. Why can't Verizon just nut up and start making some real quality devices? I wish.

arite i just got my 8600 in the mail yesterday.....for some reason i cant load any music on my phone.....i put music on my memory card and when i try to add songs to library the phone just freezes and i have to take the battery out and restart the phone all over again.....any ideas why this is happening......any help will be great.....thanx

LL unCool Jake:
As a VZW customer I appreciate not to have to read your condescending remarks anytime someone asks a question about a VZW phone, on VZW section of the forum.

It's true that Sprint has little reason to exist anymore, but that gives you no reason, no reason at all to think that you can grab a customer here and there by constantly bashing the other carriers on their related forums.

Move on and stop posting. S

I am tired of the telemarketers. Everyone should register and file complaints. Probably won't do much good though.

I almost made a very costly mistake. I am planning to switch from Verizon to Cingular as soon as my contract expires (no flames please....I have good reasons). Anyhow, I have been monitoring my Verizon account on line for several months now, and it shows how much time is left before I can use my “New Every Two” and upgrade my phone. I assumed that date was also the end of contract date….WRONG!! I have been anxiously waiting for that date (December 10th) so I can switch to Cingular and get a new phone. A little voice in my head told me I should call Verizon just to be sure. Turns out, that upgrade date is two freakin’ months before the contract expires!! If I would have gone in to a Cingular store and ported my numbers, I would have b...
