Krzr K1 questions

First off.....this is a HOTT phone! What a beautiful upgrade to a V3.......awesome phone....was gonna go w/ the v3r (hated the v3i b/c of the 100 song cap) but didn't wanna go with the v3r either b/c lack of EDGE, glad i waited.

ok...questions

is there ANY way to make the speaker work when you close the flip....i went through every setting.

secondly... i want to be able to listen to my phones mp3 player in the car.....there is no 2.5mm or 3.5mm jack....so im guessing bluetooth.....can someone tell me how this works and what i would need....want to play from my phone to my car speakers.

thanks!

locked vs unlocked

I bought my phone during the time when cell phones where locked by Cing. Since the unblock ruling by the govt, is there anyway to trade in my locked phone for an unlocked phone. Yes my phone is in perfect working order with no wear shown on it since i take very good care of it. Also if i get an unlocked phone from the Cing retail will it still have the Cing branding on it aka the locked and unremovable ringtones and capabilities?

Thanks for any info given in advance!

Thanks For The Advice All..The W810i Was The Perfect Choice..Now About My Phone Upgrade

I currently have a Moto V557 never had any problems with it but I've put it thru hell and high water.

My younger cousin went from a flip phone to the W810i ( Which by the way is an AWESOME PHONE!! and after tax got the phone and a 4GB disk for right around $325.00 - Catch a call rep on the right day and say a few nice things they will take care of you)

I made some calls on it the other day and used the MP3 player and like the phone I would use it for myself but I prefer a flip phone to a candy bar phone.

Does anyone out there know if sony is going to make a flip phone version of the W810i?

I have done a little research on the W710i and while it's a nice flip phone I would prefer something a tad bit thinner.

Or should I wait f...

I grabbed some Cingular brochures yesterday.

I figure, as a way to preserve the memory of the Cingular brand I'd grab some brochures. I wish I had the mind to do this when AT&T Wireless was rebranded in 2004.

Look out

at&t/bellsouth merged to provide even deeper discounts and better bundle service offerings. This will lead 2 some new options open 2 consumers who have at&t services. With at&t controling about 1/3 of the nations landlines and about 60 million cell phones look 4 them to attack Verizon wireless with some new offers. The year 2007 will be an interesting year with Verizon wireless continuing to be the industry leader in churn and adding new customers. Then Cingular adding more total cusotmers and continuing to improve the overall satisfaction of it's customers.

CSR help!!

I've now been on my RAE or my cingular rep for about 3 months about my agent line. I filled out the form and sent it in, but to no avail. I have emailed him 4 times and now my bill is outrageous because he hasn't switched it yet. He states that when it gets changed (if ever) he will back date it the 3 months I've been waiting. However, I refuse to pay the balance till it gets corrected but I don't wanna get disconnected. any help or advice would be great.

Cingular Treo 680 horror

👿
I just purchased a Treo 680 from a Cingular store and it was on Wednesday night. On Friday I wore it to work to set it up and play with it. The screen cracked while in the Cingular leather case. Cingular says this is an out of warranty fix and so it can only repaired at full cost which for them is over $200. Or I could go to Palm (whom I called and they charge $199). I have owned several PDAs (m100,m105,m125,T-E, T-E2,650) and I have never seen a screen crack like this and those were all dropped at some point in their usage. This seems like a production issue and there are several reports of it happening or other damage due to dropping the phone just once so please be careful or you will be stuck like me with a $300 paperweight be...

Fluctuating Volume on Sync and CU500 Earpieces

I just bought a Sync and love it, except for a frequent volume fluctuation in the earpiece. It is only noticeable when there has been a pause in a conversation and speaking resumes. When the other person resumes speaking, the first part of their sentence is soft, but rapidly gets louder up to normal volume. There is a thread in Howard Forums where other owners of the Sync have noticed the same thing. I found another thread where owners of the CU500 have complained about the same thing. One user stated that it was a "gate" issue with the gain. Is this a defect that accompanies 3G phones (I am in an Edge only area)? Can anything be done about it? Does the Blackjack have the same issue? I love the Sync, except for this.

Does the iPhone affect VZW's chances of passing Cingular?

I think it's safe to say that the iPhone announcement sent shockwaves throughout the mobile phone industry. Will the high-end (aka profitable) VZW customers start porting to Cingular over this phone?

Cingular SYNC outscores all other music phones

In a test of seven mobile phone music devices, based on music feature quality, menu/UI, keypad, display and style/design, the Samsung Cingular SYNC outscored its competition in every category.

"Participants were overwhelmingly satisfied with the performance and visual appeal of the Samsung Cingular SYNC," said Pamela De Luca of Strategy Analytics. "Additionally, they appeared to be very comfortable using the device as a music player and were quite capable of carrying out in a timely manner the tasks that were presented to them. The Motorola V3i (RAZR) and the Nokia N91 were also rather well received by these participants."

On the downside, the LG VX8500 "Chocolate" received the lowest marks in almost every category.

Upgrade phone advice please

It's time to upgrade my Cingular phones and I'm looking for advice from the group. Most important factors are reception quality, sound quality, and durability. I use the phone for talking and occasional text messaging. I don't really care about taking pictures or other features. I'm just looking for a good, well made phone that has above average reception as I am frequently working in low signal areas.

Thanks for any suggestions you can offer!

GSM Samsung Phones

Hello,

I'm looking to pick up a Samsung phone, but the ones I have used, the D407 and the C417 seem to have an earpiece that sounds metallic and tinny. I have tried these in 3 Cingular corporate stores, is this normal for these phones, or could there be a bad batch out there? My friend's Samsung A870 on Verizon sounds perfect.

Thanks.
