Motorola E815 / E816 Hollywood
EVDO Issue
It dont matter return the phone it looks like a major recall on the phone.
...
how can we find substantial information regarding a recall? It is still listed as an optional phone to get in the NYC and NJ areas.
...
Just got off the phone with VZW, there is NO RECALL, but there were technical problems with the VCAST, which is why a temporary hold was place on orders. should be resolved by tomorrow at the latest. Dosn't effect anything else with the phone, just VCAST. If you already have the phone and having problems with your VCAST, take it in, and they will put the software upgrade on your phone.
...
There are multiple defects in this phone from dead pixels to volume to the ear piece to speaker phone to half of the phones not having the correct software being installed on them. There is obviously a major problem here. I had my phone for 8 days now my phone did good for the first 5 days than all the problems started to kick in. If you read some of these threads people have to take back and exchange their phone 4 or 5 times its unreal!

I think the number of people with problems is being GREATLY exaggerated.
Just like with the V710 (I am on my 4th) there are issues with new phones. Aside from the obviously crooked camera in the initial V710 ... Verizon never issued an official recall on the model.
Yes they put a hold on phones while they checked their inventory for problem phones, and marked the boxes with the appropriate colored dots ... but there was no recall.
Just like now ... with the 815 ... no recall.
quit hoaxing

I never officially said there was a "RECALL" i said it "LOOKS" like there will be a recall. I did call Verizon i spoke to 1 rep and the rep stated there was a recall on the phone due to the amount of returns and issues and the latest software problem. Its everyone else that keeps dragging it along. Verizon reps all have their own opinion on whats going on obviously. So I'm not the person you need to get on about that. The E815 is a good phone yes some people do exchange their phone in for the smallest reasons i agree couldn't agree more. It was a smart move by Verizon to put a hold on selling these phones until they could check the software and make sure it was up to date. We all now know what the situation on this phone is so we can...
