is anybody having a problem with setting up their gmail? i auto find the network settings successfully but it doesnt retrieve the mail...

and is there a button that lets me turn down the volume from the home screen

Is there a way to set the number of rings before voicemail picks up. I would perfer it took longer to reach my vm because I appear to be just missing a lot of calls. It could be related to the fact I cannot feel the vibrate as well anymore. Does anyone else feel like the vibrate power is deteorating? Thanks for your help.

Just wondering if anyone can confirm that the Q has to be initially sold with the voice/data plan and then Verizon may cancel out the data portion?

If your response is HUH? then we're on the same page.

I got my Q about a week ago a specifically told the salesperson I wanted only the voice plan on my Q and she told me there was no problem..she could do it. Well out of curiosity I called Verizon customer service over the weekend to get a detailed account of my bill and was told the data plan was included in my account and I would have to get in touch with the salesperson to have the charge credited back to me.

So I go back to the Verizon store and the lady tells me that is the way it's done. They have to initially sell the Q with the...

It the Q Wifi enabled?

This is something that really burns me up and I need to comment on. Whenever someone on this forum – or others – mentions that they are doing something like streaming Slingbox video or other such media, someone makes the comment about getting banned from Verizon’s service.

This kills me. We are paying for an “Unlimited Data Plan” and we are paying dearly for it at about $40 a month. This is more than most of are paying for our hard lined high speed data access. OK. So it is wireless. Whoop-de-frekin-do. We are still paying for it and Verizon is still offering “Unlimited Data” for this price.

I say there is no reason for us to operate our lives in fear that Verizon is going to cut off of our service because we are somehow using too mu...

I have noticed the reception on the Q is not near as good as the E815 or the Razr. I am sitting in my home office and the E815 has 4 bars and the Q has none to one. It has been like this for the 2 weeks I've owned it. Anyone else having the same problem?

Has anyone found a spell check that works with the Q's email?

Sometimes text prediction might help, but it does not work with "reply"

Also would love to store attachements and big emails to a mem card.

Any ideas?

I am thinking to get a Motorola Q phone and not sure if I be able to check my email outside of US, say in Cancun, Mexico. I have called a Verizon customer service twice and both of the times they told me two different things. One Verizon person told me that it will work in Mexico and I won’t have any problem to check my emails, the other one told me that it won’t work. Any of you guys know the real answer? Thanks!

I have been using a Samsung i600 for the last two years and the OS is almost identical to WM5 on the Q. I am frustrated by a couple of changes that I can’t imagine are intentional, as they make entering contact info almost impossible in certain situations. Anyone else find these bugs? Or do I need to take this thing back?

1) If I attempt to enter a new phone number into an existing contact, I am only allowed to type letters. Even hitting the ATL (half moon icon) key once or twice to lock does not change the input from letters to numbers. I have to go to my desktop, enter the number, and then sync.

2) I am unable to locate a contact from the “Find Contact” screen when attempting to add a number from the hall history list witho...

Does anyone know of any good personal expense trackers available for the Q? The only compatible software I found was "Keep Track" by Iliumsoft (30 day free trial). However I'm having problems with it displaying colors (e.g. red for expenses) and a running account balance--so I'm trying to find something else. Any ideas?

I record a message but get no sound when I play it back. I've tried turning hands free on and off as well as using a headset and nothing.

There are occasions when I would like to set my progile to "silent" but have a few important contacts ring normally. Is this possible?

i have come across a couple of websites and i couldn't view it because my browser didn't support it. is it possible to upgrade the browser (not sure if one even exist), or download firefox?
thanks

I'm new to the whole smartphone thing and wondered if someone could answer some questinos for me, cause i think the Q looks really good.

Do you have to pay to browse the net on it check email, etc, or could i do it for free with my home wireless network and other wireless networks?

Whats an advantage of having a smartphone over just a regular phone? Who is in need of these? I'm just curious about them and wonder what everyones thoughts are about it.

do you download papyrus to your pc then to your q or just straigh to the q. I was looking at it tonight but it was with my q so I was not getting the full page.
thanks much

and that's all I have to say about that...

Much awaited for, I received my "Q" last night. I'm really disappointed. It certainly rates high on the cool factor, but frankly not on the quality or functionality front. Again, these are just my opinions and I'm sure many will disagree, but that's why we have this posting board...

I think it has a great looking screen, even though the resolution is lower than the Trio 700p.

Other than that, there are more "cons" than "pros" for me, so it's getting shipped back today!!!

Cons:
- Speaker Quality
- Ear piece sound is low quality
- Those I called said it sounded horrible and said go back to your other phone
- Cheaply made, battery door doesn't even close tight on the left side, it sticks out enough to catch on things
- Case V...

When accessing Outlook via the Web for my company email....I can enter my user name and password but can't seem to get over to the "LOGIN" button. Does the Q have a "TAB" key? I tried scrolling and etc. but can't get to the magic "LOGIN" button. Am I crazy, stupid?

Does anyone know how to stop a ringer for a text or e-mail. Im sick of listening to the entire ring tone. Even when i check the text it will still continue to ring. Thank you for your time. 😕
