Which BT Headset for this phone?

So...exactly WHICH BT headset would work best with this phone. Is there one out there that will work fully in automatic mode so you rarely have to touch the phone?

I bought a scala 500 a while back (with BT adapter for my 4650....well, I should have known that it doesn't work fully in automatic mode. I can use it in auto mode but then the headset remain on (not in standby). This is okay, other than the fact that you sort of hear the speaker, and it might be exposing me to more RF than I want(?)

A BT headset is worthless in my opinion if you can't do pretty much everything from the headset (in terms of making/ending calls). The phone manufacturer should start making their own headsets for each phone.

What is the largest pic size will show up on the screen?

I just tryed to transfer a 1.5 meg pic and load it on the phone, but it didnt show up. The screen was just blank. I guess you have to resize the photo.I wonder what is the max size it can handle?

1 yr. or 2 yr contract?

I've pretty much decided the first phone of mine will be the 8100. What I want to know is which contract should I get if getting a flagship phone with all the bells and whistles (about a new one every year) is high on the priority list without having to pay out of my behind for each new one. Thanks for any info! I know I'm totally clueless about everything phone related 😕

I have not yet received my phone but I have been reading up on how to add my own ringtones and such and had a question:

And not to be an idiot here but...does anyone have a link for either program?

I have been searching for a while now and have not found a thing.

Thanx for the help.

Jabra Bluetooth

Jabra Headset for Bluetooth has been a bit STATICY. never had bluetooth before is it like this always?

Also regular EARpeice on phone volume is kinda low.

Speakerphone is loud but words get cut off, even in mute.

I know no phone is perfect but yesturday this phone was a 9........not its slipping into the 8's and fast.

I may take a second look at the E815

MP3 Player?!?!

MP3 Player

The **phone includes memory storage for MP3 or similar music files, and software for playing that music. Generally, music can be downloaded into the phone from a computer and played back later through a headset attached to the phone.

Newer phones with High-Speed Data may support downloading music directly over the Wireless Internet.

Close Window

** Unless you use Verizon....

doanloading wallpaper/ringtones, etc

I heard this one thing that you can ONLY download wallpaper/ringtones, etc. to this phone through VERIZON

i know some sites that sell ringtones and wallpapers, etc., and they just send them to your phone (nothing done with Verizon or LG or anything). Can you do this with this phone?

NO VIBRATE then RING???

Ok just got the phone last night ,but I dont see the option to vibrate then ring? Either its vibrate only or ring only. This sucks since I like to leave it in my pocket and sometimes grab it before it rings.
