Motorola V710

Has anyone gotten this down well? It's obviously easy to do this through the 'add favorites' function, but what about bookmarking links that are four or five clicks deep?

Example: On Nextbus.com, I have bookmarked next bus, but I still have to browse 3 or four pages deeper to get to my bus stop. Same w/mail. I have to browse to my inbox.

I can use 'show URL' once there, but there's no copy text function from that screen. Surely there's a better way than typing the full (long, long) url into the 'add a favorite' box...

Help!!!?? 😢

Go to menu, settings, personalize, sound settings.. Change phonebook to Voice..

Now to go ring styles and go to Keypad volume..Make sure that volume is up...

Finally make sure you Speakerphone is on..

Then just go to your phonebook and it will start saying the names as you scroll.

I have read that some people are thinking of keeping blue tooth turned on.
before you do you may want to know that may you be putting yourself at risk.

phones have been hit over a mile away.
I could not get it to work with a hand-set in the other room but i guess hackers have had better luck

maybe someone could help me...i just got the phone and im trying to get an mp3 or midi or whatever...i tried to convert using iTunes but it wont let me because the files are protected...it also doesnt even give me an option to convert to mp3 only to acc...if anyone can guide me, maybe i am doing something wrong...i know it must be annoying but thanx in advance

I've had the phone for a week and so far I think it's a good phone.

The only problem I'm having is seeing the display in bright sunlight. I dind't have this problem with my last phone (LG non color screen). I've played with the brightness and contrast setting but it still like having no screen at all when out in the sun.

Am I missing someting in setting the screen properly or is this a common problem with color screen phones.

So - are all 710 people going to post that they got their e-mail confirming that they got their free accessory? hehehe 🙄

Does anyone know the dial up networking configuration for the 14.4 Quick Connect setup? I believe that the phone number is #777, but I don't know the user name and password. Are there any other settings? Thanks in advance!

Is there any other ways to send pictures rather than uploading to pix place? cause the pix place site wont work for me.. grrrr.... and to send email do you have to have a special plan, etc?

I was wondering if anyone out there had any idea if AOL IM is technically possible from v710. I imagine it is but I don't know much about how it is set up. I know it is not available on GIN yet. Just wondering if you think it will be coming.

Recently, when I power off my phone, I notice that it freezes up right before the screen should go black. Also, when I power on my phone the intro animation freezes for a second or two.

Anyone else having this problem???

I love this phone but this is not cool at all. It should not be freezing up!

Anyone know if Verizon would need the entire packaging w/ the phone to swap it for a new V710??

Let me know, thanks!

This is sort of two questions.

First, do you have to store images and / or ringtones in the phone's main memory to be able to use them for phone number id entries? I tried to access a picture on the transflash via the "picture" field edit on a phone number entry and couldn't see it in the list of choices. When I moved it to the phone memory I could.

Next question.

What's the max size for the pictures in the picture id? I know the phone will scale a picture down, because that's what I'm doing currently. But, when I scroll through phone numbers and hit one with a picture, there's a delay...like it's taking the phone time to think about scaling the pic down. Or, could it just be that it takes a little while to load up the pictur...

I'm having a problem with my Bluetooth headset. I program it to recognize my phone and it works fine until I turn it off. Then, when I turn it back on, I have to re-program it to get the phone to recognize it. How do I get the phone to recognize the headset without re-programming it each time? Thanks! 😕

Anyone know what to do with the .qcd suffix to get these to play on a Mac?

Half the time my banner says Verizon Wireless and half the time it has my personalized banner. Anybody else have this problem? 😕

I noticed someone earlier posted that there caller id was not showing up when someone else called. Well somebody just called me and it did not display. I was wondering if anyone else was having this problem or do I have a defective phone.

Just curious if the bluetooth will work with the v710?

I had one in my hands today but Radioshack wouldn't honor my early upgrade, they called verizon for me but they said that I can only go to a verizon store to get my early upgrade.
