DAY FROM HADES!

First.

Can anyone answer this. I have a customer who bought a V3m Silver Razr. He also purchased the Music Essentials Kit. When he tries to move files from his kit to his phone (which has the transflash card) he gets an error message about the license of the file. He contacts tech support through the 1-800-922-0204. They advise him that he must need the software flashed. He takes the phone to the technitians who say he has the most current software. They give him 1-866-788-WDTS to call when in front of his computer. He calls this number. They tell him that his PHONE ISN'T CAPABLE of the music transfers!

I call that number and get that I will have AN HOUR WAIT TIME!!! Holy cow! What is going on here? I know his phone is cap...

VX5300 in my hand and testing begins tonight !

Guys,

I got it. I have the 5300 and it's activated. I have it for one hour so far so not much to report yet but alot tonight when I get back.

Keypad feels like the 8300 so far , the screen is small but that is okay.. I can tell you and it really does not mean much but the 1X meter is 1 bar higher in my office than the 8300. Speaker phone so far is decent , more to come.

The earpiece is a concern, on the 8300 we all know it's low but very clear. There is a slight downgrade in earpiece quality but I am not sure yet.

UI allows it to be set to blue and other colors but no Flash. Big deal , at least I have it all rigged with blue..

We all know the bluetooth thing is the problem with the 8300 and this is most important to test. I w...

for someone that has used the phone (or if not, than has this info)-

speakerphone- people have said that the phone definitely doesnt have it, or that it definitely does. one mark against it was no button, my current lg phone uses the up button for speakerphone- could this be the same?

buttons on the sides- what do they do? specifically the one on the side with the camera and end functions- i cant read it in pictures, but what does it do?

opening the phone- is it easy to open? is there a button or switch of some sort? does it seem like it would open in a pocket or bag?
thickness- how thick is it, or what are its dimensions (guessing is fine- if you have held it)

sorry so many questions, but im sure im not the only one wondering a...

So you wanna know how much we make?

this is in my area in the northeast
Cust service rep in store about 35k-40k with bonus
Sales rep 48-63k 😁
B2B Reps 68-110k
Asst. Managers 58-70k
Store Managers 90-110k 🤤
Now these are based of what we call and "A" store meaning high vaule area also the northeast area accounts for 1/3 of vzw total business and net profit so we make more money here. the good thing about working in the northeast is that if you move to any store in the west, south or midwest you are usually 97% graun. the job. to get a job with vzw isn't easy i applied 9 times before i got my first call back and i haven't looked back since last year i i work for 7 months and i need 51k and i'm on track to his 64k this year. these figures are based off what i know f...

Verizon outage ?

OK, I'm not trolling.. Everyone has had their share of outages. I have to admit for Verizon, in my market, it's almost unheard of. But -
The local daily paper had a story of a what appeared to be a major outage in the midwest. Any updates? what happended? anyone ??

thanks

Streamlined Billing...

On the new streamlined billing, when it comes in the mail does it showed the numbers you call or that call or you? or does it show the minutes used and text messaging and stuff like that?

New LG phones - will bluetooth work , will they be good ?

Okay,

So I cant wait to get my hands on the 5300 and 8500..

I am praying that LG fixed the Bluetooth Echo problem. If they did not , they are really going to be in trouble. I am amazed that VZW does not make them fix this echo thing.

You can take a Moto or a Samsung and use 50 different headsets and they all work pretty well..

With the LG8300 you are screwed, no matter what they all ehco back to the outside caller.

Let's hope the new ones are good.

The 5300 looks great because of it's size , I dont care about Vcast.. Just give me a good Speakerphone and Working Bluetooth and a nice keypad and small and I am happy.. I bet alot of people would like the same..

Should I upgrade from my V710?

Sorry if this is a revisit for some of you! I am not as big a phone geek as most of you, so I thought I would put it out there. I have been eligible for over a year for the New Every 2, but I don't really see any phones that seem that much better than my V710. The E815 seems just like a slightly updated version of the V710 and doesn't seem worth upgrading to from the V710. I have heard mixed reviews about the Razor (even the new one). Can someone convince me to upgrade my phone? Should I wait for one of the new phones scheduled to come out in the next couple of months? If so, which one. Chocolate? Canary?Any input would be greatly appreciated - I feel an urge for a new phone 😉 but I do really like the V710. Thanks!
