RAZR V3 battery conditiioning/calibrating?

I've read that cell phone battery life can be extended by conditioning/calibrating the lithium ion battery. I'm familiar with the concept and procedure from computer laptops (charge fully, run all the way down till device shuts down, charge fully), but am wondering if it's, indeed, advisable to do with cell phones (and the RAZR V3 in particular). And does Motorola have an official position on this?

E815 data cable/drivers and software--I have - but question

Hi, I HAVE a data cable from Mobilesandpdas.com (ebay) The guy swears that the cable works--but the software link they provide does not contain the drivers for this phone. (their response is they've sold 100's --and all work! Their offering a refund--I don't want a refund--I want it to work!)

What am I missing??

The link (they provide for the drivers) points me to a zip file which expands into a setup program. I run this setup and it appears ok--yet when I plug the phone in, the PC says new hardware found and looking for a driver. NOWHARE is the actual driver! The phone shows up in device mangr but with the explanation point! and says it wont work.'(BTW--SAME results on 2 pc's and 2 OS's!! (98/SE and XP)

Does anyone know wh...

RAZR V1 & V2 Design Question

I am interested in why Motorola created the 1st generation RAZR only in GSM. I use Verizon and was hoping to be able to use this model on their network. Does anyone know if the RAZR V2 will be CDMA compliant?

Thank you.

V551 Reception loss,anyone else????????

About a week ago my 2 month old V551's signal reception dropped about 90% out of the blue 😳

I put my wife's V551(bought at same time as mine) side by side and her phone recieves a full 5 bars(EDGE) while mine is at 1 bar on the basic digital.

Anyone else have had similar problems with this model signal wise?

I'm in Far North Richardson Texas(Dallas) on the Cingular Network.

Motorola T300p V60s V65p V276 Pros & Cons

Hi from Vermont,

I need to buy 50 tri-band phones without PTT, and 5 with PTT. My number one priority is reception (analog & digital), followed by reliability.

Found quite a bit of info about the V60s and V276, but not much on the T300p and V65p.

As you can imagine, with this kind of a financial commitment, I don't want to make a bad decision. I am limited to the current Verizon offerings and a price range of $50 or less. Bar vs clamshell is not important.

The 50 phones without PTT (V60s or V276) will be used in vehicles with car kits.

The 5 phones with PTT (T300p or V65p) will have light duty use by office staff.

I am also looking at the Kyocera KX 444 & SoHo KX1v, the Samsung SCH a650 and the LG VX 330, VX 4650/4700 & VX ...

Setting up the E815 for IMAP?

I have seen that the E815 supports POP and IMAP, but nowhere can I find where to set it up.

In the MobileWeb tools v2.0, I see e-mail and it will allow me to setup MSN, AOL, and Yahoo, but I don't see where I can setup an IMAP account.

Anyone have any ideas?

Where is A630 ?

What happened to the A630 ? It offered many cool features,+ QWERTY keyboard with small, unique size.UNBELIEVABLE that no one is offering this completely "different" small phone. Never saw many people have but that only enhanced it's uniqueness 2 me. Is there a problem with quality ? What will replace it ?

Saw MOTOROLA ACOMPLI 009 on world phone site & it is similar with QWERTY keyboard but bigger & more of a SMARTPHONE(no problem) & not as "cool". Is this a new phone ? Will it matter, if I buy this phone or a A630 on Ebay, whether or not I use a T-MOBILE sim card or CINGULAR ? Thanx 4 input .

My problem is when I click on the mutimedia icon and opens the menu, connection to phone is broken and unable to download or upload files from my PC.
Please help!!!
