according to this article :

"...Verizon says that crippling Bluetooth implementation is a "fraud prevention" tactic to prevent strangers from sending unsolicited text messages to your phone..."

Anybody know if transflash is still on backorder at most of these online places with good prices??

Im looking for a 128mb card. every place seemed to be sold out of them in the beginning but it has been a few weeks and I was just curious

thanks

Oh and how come they hiked up the price? Just curious.

Well, to all those who purchased a V710 at VZW on the very first day, waiting with the store crowds for an hour, being obsessed with getting the V710 now, we reach Thursday, 8/26, the final decision day for keeping the phone or throwing it back.

After 15 long days of living with the V710, playing, testing, weighing the good and the not so good, and after reading the many reviews and helpful posts, a decision must be made.

I conclude (your opinion may vary) that the V710 is currently VZW's best. Lots of features, most of which work pretty well. Most importantly, as a phone, mine works very well ... sound quality, reception & analog ability. I'm keeping it 🙂

Here's to a long V710 life (hopefully well past the 1 year warranty)!...

Today I tried to get the Gomadic to work with my Dell PDA and the v710...Frustration. The phone never was able to talk to the PDA. So far, I have tried every setting I can think og. There does not seem to be any setting on the phone to use it as a modem. Of course, any advice is welcome. What is personally frustrating to me is that I could get my old phone to work just fine ☹️

joey

I went online and bitched to both Verizon & Motorola Customer support about the fact that the handset ringer & vibrate turns off when BT is paired. Maybe if enough of us do this they will come up with a SW or Firmware solution. I have seen one mention in the forum that someone heard Moto is working on a fix, but that is the only indication I have seen. I spoke w/ multiple Moto cust support people and none of them said anything about Moto working on it. They just said that was how the phone worked.

I have the HS810 BT headset and have a problem. When I am talking to someone on it they say that when they talk they can hear an echo of themselves. If I go back to the phone it goes away. I tried this on my home phone and they are right. If I turn the headset volume down it is not as noticable, but then I have a hard time hearing them. It gets to be annoying for people I am calling. It's wierd because they sound perfect to me. Has anyone else had this problem? Could it just be a defective headset?

Does anyone know if this phone will work with a Powerbook G4 from Apple which comes with bluetooth built in, In order to dail up and get online?

Also what speed do you think the connection would be, compared to, say dailup at 56k.

Hey guys. I'm a long-time reader, but this is my first post on this board. I've read a lot on this and other forums, but I haven't seen any mention of the voice note feature at all.

I had the T730/720 for a while and used the voice note feature all the time, both with and without my Jabra bluetooth headset (with adapter). I'm good at forgetting things, so the voice note feature was very handy. The V710 also has the voice note feature, I think they call it voice record, which I've used, but I do have a problem trying to leave a voice note through my head set. I had the Jabra 200 with adapter for my T730, but I now have the 250 for my V710.

Anyway... here's the problem. If I leave the voice note through the headset, when I go to ...

Thanks in advance...........

After each download "ringer" from allofmp3.com to desktop to transflash I have to reformat in order to properly play next download is this normal?

Need help getting into menu for op code changes
does not work for me please someone help me. 😳

It should be just a TAD louder. but i guess i'll live with it.. and geez. its annoyin for the woman to hear me say NAME.... and it took me FOREVER to get her to understand Jose.. I actually had to spell it Hosay... retarded lol.. newayz.. When you leave it alone for 5 minutes, i know that the led light stops blinking. So that means its in standby mode? Which is still wasting battery correct? Also everytime i shut it off and turn it back on, i have to go thru the connection process thru the phone every time? Cuase that can get annoying. please let me know if you can. Is Jabra 250 so much better than this one?

Hi,

I was looking around today to see what types of cases were available for the v710, and under one sites compatable accs. they listed this.

Kinda a cool idea, like a PDA but a wide screen similar to old school windows CE devices.

What does anyone think of this?

Anyone notice that the battery display (the details shown in the phone status menu / battery meter) will go from 6 to 4 to 2 to 0. On my phone it always skips level 5,3,& 1.

Is the one for the MPx200 and this one the same?

Could somebody please help me out,

I got my transflash yesterday and I was all excited to put mp3s on the phone but everytime i go to access the sounds (or anything in media) the phone just freezes! I can't even rename it when i format it (on the phone) I heard that mac users were having some problems with the TF cards, could someone please lemme know wassup. This is really pissing me off because i had it working before i did the stupid formating on the phone. urg. whats the deal with os x?

If you were lucky enough like I was to be one of the first 710 to register your phone with motorola you should be recieving your headset any day now. I live in St. Louis and got mine today. Be on the lookout! 😁

I can't find or download the demo for Xringer from GIN to sample ringtones for purchase. I could only find the Modtones and I have the demo for that. How can I find or download the Xringer samples without purchasing it first. Thanks!
