Motorola V710

I have been having a problem where my v710 keeps telling me I have new voice mail, like I'll get the notification and everything, but there is no voicemail there... has anyone else had this problem?

Can somebody tell me how long the voice memo feature is on the Motorola 710. Thanks

Has anyone had any experience with setting up two cell phones to access one telephone number?

The reason for my inquiry is that I currently own the v710 and Blackberry (BB) 7750 from Verizon Wireless (VW). I recognize that the BB has telephone capabilities, but until VW adopts the new BB design (7100 Series), I'm hesitant to use the BB as my primary phone.

What I AM interested in doing is having the ability to send/receive txt messages and take an occasional phone call on the BB when away from the v710 all from the same telephone number/plan.

I don't see why this should be any different than the typical home phone set-up (i.e. multiple home phones, one number). Of course with the exception of the VW "Greed" factor!

Any thoughts...

Ive tried sending pics to my phone from my computer to use as my wallpaper, but when they are enlarged to Fit-the-Screen, the quality sucks. Anyone know how i can send a pic to my phone and be able to enlarge it to fit the screen with great quality?? thanks

There have questions like this in the past but never a firm answer.
It probably doesn't matter to most but to some it does - How can you tell if you have a refurbished or New replacement phone?
I have read to look at the labels and see if they have been replaced. Look at the Lifetime call timer is another suggestion.
I just got a "replacement" 710 today. It looks like the labels under the battery have been covered over but then the lifetime call timer was at only 2 minutes.
Does the lifetime call timer ever get reset on a refurb? What are the things to look for to see if you have a new or a refurbished FRU.

Pease don’t tell me vCast does not work with this phone?

Hi, I’m checking yours reviews about the new phones of Vzn they are very helpful 😁 but anyways, I want a nice phone not too big and with a speaker also and many features, so I still (in despite of the bad comments) may get a Moto 710 cause seems to be that is the only one that is going to let me have my own mp3 ringtones and pictures without the annoying "get it now" and without USB cables that may be difficult to use(how do I download MP3 to the LG800??). I really wanted the CDM8940 but seems to be that the mini SD is crippled and then almost useless right??
Some ideas, some help guys is two years of agreement and more that 200 bucks moto 710, CDM8940 or the LG 8000. I want to know also if the mp3 player in the Moto is Stereo somebody sai...

I currently have the Mpx22o with Cingular but the reception sucks. so now I'm switching to Verizon. so is the V710 worth it? if so what's the best deal do u guys think i can get on one? 🙄

I'm trying to get one within the next week. so help if you can.

I have read on here how the bluetooth is very limited on the v710... so my quetsion is has anyone made like a fairly specific list of what you can and can't do (besides use the wireless headset and speaker).

If I had a bluetooth adaptor on my computer and I made it recognize my phone, what can I do (without flashing the memory with this new version) and what should I be able to do but is blocked by verizon??? Also using the bluetooth adaptor would I be able to flash the phone etc just like using the cable?

I just got my TF card, reader, and everything. I have two test files on it, I cannot find out where to access them from. I went into the phones menu and switched storage devices to to the TF card, it shows up on my phone. So I threw a video and a an MP3 on the phone...I went back into my media gallery and when I clicked on videos, sounds, etc my phone doesn't go anywhere. Am I doing something wrong? Can someone help me?

Read all posts about creating ringtones and transferring files. Still having problems.

I have no trouble making/cutting mp3s on the computer and transferring them into the phone. I've transferred them as mp3s and as mids and can listen to them easily. There is no option to set them as a ringtone however in either of the formats and there is no option to move it to the phone memory; unless I'm not seeing it. Anyone able to help?
This is totally driving me nuts.

Man, they have really dropped the ball with the v710.. The update is not out.. This charger that im talkin about did not come out.. Fantastic.

ive tried everything ....ive upgraded to the lastest version of MPT and still no luck...i know my usb ports work cause my v60 works fine with the software....but windows doesnt even recognize a new device when i plug my v710....any help would be great...thanks

Hey all,

Havent posted here in awhile.

I was curious, with this e815 coming out in a few months (or whenever) and it being the supposed upgrade to the v710...will there be any chance that we can trade our v710s in for e815...because of possible false advertisement reasons? Im happy with my v710 because I dont use it much more than a phone, camera, video camera...but for those that are using bluetooth, they keep saying its crippled.

Now what I am saying is, if there is no official flash update, and alot of customers are disgruntled due to the lack of features it was advertised to have...will we be able to trade this in for the e815 when it comes out??

just a thought, curious to hear others opinions

I have the v710 with bluetooth and a bluetooth PDA (dell axiom). Can I use my phone for dial up on the PDA?

LOOKS KINDA GOOFY BUT IS IT ANY GOOD?

I have tried converting a few MP3 files to ring tones for my phone, but have not been able to do so.
I first tried renaming the Mp3 to .mid then .midi, and leaving it at .mp3, and mailing it to myphone#@vzwpix.com to receive the file on my phone, and each time the phone says file type not recognized. The audio clip I have been trying to use has been renamed to less than 15 characters, and is close to 30 seconds long with no fading effects. I have a TF but no adapter currently available to hook up to my cpu, but I have heard you should still be able to tranfer the Mp3 to my phone, so I have been using hotmail to send the file to my phone.

Any ideas?

is there any way to change the wallpaper on the front screen?

Check out today's Wall Street Journal, page 1 of the Business section.

The heat is really turning up on Verizon now. The six column article, among other things says:

"Ms. Raney of Verizon Wireless notes that other carriers sell Bluetooth phones that offer only some of the Bluetooth features. But Cingular, the largest U.S. wireless carrier, accepts its phones with the full Bluetooth function the phone makers intended."

Kirtland & Packard, in partnership with a NYC law firm filed a Demand for Class Action Arbitration in New York on January 20, 2005.

An arbitration usually gets relief much faster than a lawsuit. The firm is seeking, among other things, damages, updates to V710 phones sold to date for full Bluetooth capabilities, and to stop Verizon from selling V710s with disabled Bluetooth.
