Just curious, I am hooked on Phone Scoop and am on here several times a day and I see more and more threads with problems. I got the 8100 on the 15th and really like it. I have not had ANY (knock on wood) of the problems that I have read about. I feel lucky, but also a little nervous about it. Are these problems that people are having happening right away, did it take a week or so to happen? Just wondering if it's only a matter of time before I experience problems. I hope not!

I've been lucky as well. Except for a recent bluetooth issue, everything is working pretty well. I got mine on the 13th.
...
I exchanged my first one, and the new one doesn't seem to have anything wrong. hopefully it stays that way =)

Have you put your phone through all its paces... BT, MP3, ringtones, camera, etc., etc., in other words, all the things we've been reading about on this forum? 🙄
...
Yes, using Bluetooth every day, have songs I put on my mini sd card (doing the .qcp method), have taken lots of pics, even saving some to my mini sd and transferring to my pc.
...
I didn't notice the volume issue the first couple of days either, maybe it depends on the signal strenght, quality of all connections, and phones involved on both ends.
How's your battery life?
...
Yeah I got mine via web on the 18th and so far the only problem I have is the battery life but its a biggie - if I leave the phone on overnight even at full charge, its dead by the morning.
...
if your battery is fully charged when you go to bed, and dead by morning it has to be defective. standby time on the batt. is over a week! i have not charged mine at all during the last 3 days of light use and still have two bars left on the battery.
...
Seems fairly good. I charge my phone every night, though, always have with all my phones. Just a habit, I guess, I have the charger next to my bed and also use my phones as my main alarm, so it just makes sense to plug it in while I sleep. I usually unplug about 8a.m., use all day including some pics, mobile web, and quite a bit of talking (I am a women, afterall) and don't plug back in until about 11p. and always have at least half my battery bars left.

TPR: What was your bluetooth problem? Other than an occasional voice command with the name only, I have had no problems. Signal fine, volume fine, speakerphone great bluetooth generally fine.
