Motorola Q

I asked Verizon Wireless Data Technical Support whether I could pay the $15/month and teether the Q as a modem either by USB or bluetooth. They responded immediately to my questions. The first response indicated that the Q did not support this function. When I responded that the Q did support DUN they clarified that they did not support teethered modem access at this time. They said they were hoping to have this feature availible soon but had no timetable given to them. (see emails below)
So while it is not supported by VZW, someone with a Q will have to try teethering via USB cable and bluetooth and report whether it works or not. Someone will also need to see if they can have VZW add the $15 broadband access connect feature to their unli...

First whole day using the Q...

8:00am woke up and egarly unplugged my Q to use.

12:00pm Q alerting me of low battery life!

12:10pm Q plugged back into wall ☹️

Got it, it's ok, I'll keep it. Seems a little on the cheap side. Meaning the keypad and back button under the wheel. It seems, to get the back button to work you have to press it really hard. I recieved the phone today and couldn't get the internet to work, called VZW and took them 3 hours to fix the problem. It was within their system, and he admitted that they knew very little about this phone and were not prepared for all the problems they have been getting over the past several days. The camera works nice, much better than any other phone I've used. I'm really disappointed in the battery life, maybe it's just me. I charged it fully, used it and still couldn't get more than about 6 hours on it, using the internet and phone off and ...

When I attach more than 1 photo to an email, only the first one gets sent. Has anyone else experienced this?

Also, it looks like the message is only sent to the first recepient. If I put multiple email addresses in the to line separated with ';', only the first on the list gets the email!

Anyone know of an avi player that works with the Q? I tried Pocket DVD Studios player and it freezes my device when I close it. any other ideas? I like to watch full lenght monvies, this phone has a very bright screen

anyone found a way to lock the phone from hitting buttons. I know there is a keypad lock but it's a lot of work to hold the Home key select keypad lock, then when unlocking you must press *

On my 700w I set it so I can press the center of the 5 way nav to unlock...anyone found a good way?

Does anyone know how to save photos?

The only options are to email, beam and set as wallpaper. I remember this was an issue with the Motorola E815 because Verizon wanted customers to pay money to send them. The trick on the E815 was to send them to a bad phone number IE: 999-999-9999. You would then get a response saying message sending unsuccessful and when you click on the E815 menu, the option to save attached file was there. So I was then able to save it to the storage card. Wasnt successful with this trick on the Q though.

So I picked up my Q this afternoon in a store for $199 (They wouldn't let me combine ne2 and the bundle discount but I'm going to try to get 611 to refund). Also got the $20 extended battery promo as it was too good to say no to.

It's a great form factor, excellent feel and screen (Needs screen protector urgently however). It's a little slow at times but exiting apps more regularly has helped. I have it setup to sync with my exchange account and it works flawlessly - i haven't tried push yet as I don't think I got the SMS2000 package in store (not on receipt even though i asked) and want to confirm before using.

I just paired with my mac and was able to sync my address book over to it (Which then synced to my exchange account over e...

I just my new Q today, first impression, screen quality stinks, everything seems out of focus and it hurts my eyes, also menus are slow.
Anyone else have problems with this, maybe I got a bad phone ??????? 😢

In addition to my exchange server / corporate email, I have a personal Yahoo Premium email account. I'm scratching my head at the moment on how to enable this... Looked thru the Yahoo FAQ's, but not sure how to proceed.

Can someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks!

Anyone find AIM for the Q?

need to pick one up this weekend anything i should know before picking one out? does it have to support any specific profiles or is any of them ok to sync and send stuff to the q? any comments would be appreciated!

Has anyone yet figured a way to send a music file from theiTunes library to the Q via Bluetooth? I bought a 2G mini-sd card on eBay, but it hasn't arrived yet (pretty good deal $39.99 w/adapter).

👿 😡 😕

How is the internet on the Q?? Fast?? Also for you guys that have the lag is it as bad as the razr? Thanks

Is it my faulty Q? or does the side back button not work for anyone else?

Any one else got this while loading a root certificate for Activesync?

I'm loving my new Q but wish I could punch a button and go straight to my calendar or tasks like on the Palm. Does anyone know if there is a way to enable shortcuts, the owners manual is almost worthless.
THANKS

Anyone receive their Q ordered from the site? I ordered it on the 31st and I still haven't even received confirmation of shipment and CC still has not been charged. This is unbelievable a company the size of VW doesn't have enough employees available to handle on-line orders!

I sent an email yesterday regarding the status of my order to the directed email and no response. Great customer service!!!
