LG VX-8000

Which of these phones is better. I'm comparing the LG 6100vs7000vs8000. All the phones have everything I want(the 7000 is missing the speakerphone). I want a phone that has everyhting the LG4600 has plus a speakerphone and camera. I can't see paying $270 for the 8000 but wold but the other two. Which is better the 6100of the 8000?? Can you tell me the difference between a VGA 640X480 camera and the 1.3 megapixel camera and which is better?? The 6100vs7000vs8000 got great rewiews.

can anyone give me some advice on how to get mp3s or new ringers without having to pay and go through getitnow. thanks.

Does anyone have any ideas why LG would not put in a belt clip whith this???, now I have to go out and buy one. They should have told me this at the store. All my other phones came with one.

okay i live about 30 min out of Chicago which is ev-do capable. I had to go downtown today for work, and figured while i was down there i would pick the phone up. Well after an hour of waiting for them to program my phone which was fine, but they made me buy an accessory pack for 50 bucks which made me irrated but i will call verizon tomorrow and complain and if it doesn't get me anywhere ill just return the stuff... anyways i get home and every time i tried to get videos and stuff it kept telling me the advanced network was unavailable. the whole time i have been home the little ev at the top has not been there... anyone else live outside of the main city and having this problem?? the 800 number was closed when i tried to call so i will ...

should i make the switch...i really dont care for my phone right now it sucks...bluetooth is not fully working...camera quality sucks...should i make switch to this phone

😡

I just got this phone...so excited all day, get it...love it...get home. IT DROPS A CALL. My 6000 has NEVER dropped a call the hole year and half I have had it. Have this phone one day and first day I have it! Also the signal bars are going up and down on my phone and my 6000 always had full strength everywhere. Has anyone else had anything similar happen? Or could I possibly have gotten the first lemon of the batch?????

does any body know the video length on the lg vx 8000? 🙂

My phone didn't come with a belt clip, do you know if I can buy one, or am I SOL?

i heard that this phone has manual focus??? is this true??? do all camera phones have manual focus cuz if they do no problem but i want to be able to take candid shots. waitin to focus is not good for me

Is there an option on the 8000 to save attachments to the phone?

I have an 8940, considering going to the 8000, and when i send any type of attachment to the phone it just shows the attachment name, no way to download it, when i get a message.

Please help!

When I try to send a .mp3 file that I've converted into a .mid file to my phone via VZWPIX.com my phone recieves the text message and starts to download but then says "Message Not Found on MMSC." What's the deal with this? And does anyone know another way to get mp3's onto the lg8000?

I have been messing around with the camera on this phone, and I have been having a problem that I was hoping someone could help me with. When I put it on the 1280x960 resolution, and I take a picture, it doesn't give me the option to save. It is as if it doesn't even recognize that it took a picture. However, when I take a picture on lower resolutions, it shows me the picture, and lets me choose whether I want to save it or erase it. Is there another setting I have to change or is there just something wrong with the camera?

Also, everyone keeps saying how good the flash is, and I am not experiencing this. The flash does not seem to help my pictures at all. What am I doing wrong? I know I have to be doing something wrong, because LG...

The outside lens settings are not explained in the manual. The top shows a flower which would indicate a close up and the bottom indicated a person which would also indicate a close shot. So where is the distance infinity shot. Can someone explain this. Also the lens adjustment seems kind of flimsy.

I understand the 7000 camera can be set in a quite or no sound mode. Is this true with the 8000 also. Additionally is the rotating lens on the 7000 more user friendly than the stationary lens on the 8000. I realize the quality is much better on the 8000.

I bought my VX8000 today and overall, I am very happy with it. I do have one issue. It was necessary for me to speak louder than normal when having conversations. It seems that the volume on the receiving phone is not very loud. Has anyone one else noticed this? Thanks.

I picke up the phone yesterday, but I don't think it has 128 mb. On the get it now menu, when I hit info it says I have 46 mb available. Anyone know how much memory this phone actually has. Thanks

I was going to exchange a 6100 for a 8000 this morning. Had an 8000 reserved and waiting for me when I got there (corp store). We went through the exchange and credit card transactions for the 6100 and the Essential Kit I'd previously purchased.

When he went to activate the 8000 though he was unsucessful. Tried for over a half hour. Called and spoke to VZW tech support, etc. No luck. The store rep was very knowledgeable (he was there untill midnight last night setting up the Vcast stuff, new phones, displays, etc).

I went to look at the 8000 during this time and saw that the RF on that was no better in the store as was my 6100
Plus the phone IS big

After 45 minutes of no joy I decided to pull the plug and keep the 6100. Better RF...
