I just got this phone last week for my mother. I am a blackberry storm2 user and an ipod touch user (ie I am a fan of all the platforms)...BUT I have to say I am VERY impressed with the android OS. I've used a blackberry for business and personal use for quite sometime now and I was sick and tired of my mom not checking her email or not being able to receive text messages and this phone ...

Ringtone how to question
Mar 25, 2010, 11:22 AM
in the Motorola Droid forum

Hi All :-) I just got the droid for my mom bc i would love for her to get it together with email/texting! I am a blackberry user, so I know if I want to put a ringtone on my phone i can email it to myself or mms it to myself and set it from there. I haven't hooked up her phone yet. I am just using it on wifi etc and I tried emailing a 23 second ringtone to her ...

Flash & Ease of Use for a Mom?
Mar 5, 2010, 6:23 AM
in the Palm Pre Plus (CDMA) forum

Hi All, Thinking of getting this phone for my ~60 yr old mom. My only concern...do you think she can get used to a keyboard? I know its small but the Web OS is so intuitive I think she could get used to it pretty easily, but she may just throw it out the window bc of the keyboard lol. Any thoughts? Also...is flash going to be supported by this phone? And is it only an App or does it support ...

Click the BB button...Go to Options...then under Set Home Screen Layout to Today instead of the # of rows you have set. Hope that was helpful :)

in the BlackBerry Storm2 9550 forum

Hawkeye, Im still a big fan of the Apple Berry theme with 4 icons. Its the theme that has the bouncing icons. I really like it because it shows the calendar in preview of like 10-12 things without actually having to go into the caldendar or using the today screen :)

in the BlackBerry Storm2 9550 forum

I say go for it. I am all over any new devices, etc and when I got my orginal storm the day it came out in 2008 I really wasnt sure about it. It was my first BB/smart phone and there was a huge learning curve PLUS the keyboard. I know everyone says take a week...but I say take 2 weeks. I am using the 9550 now and i LOVE IT. I even got the upgrade on my 9530 ...

in the BlackBerry Storm2 9550 forum

See thats an interesting point because I went from using the LG Voyager to the Storm 9530 and now the Storm 9550. I tried the Imagio for 2 weeks but I missed my feedback I got from the surepress and I missed my blackberry specifically BBM! I suppose its to each his/her own, but it definitely needs some getting used to. I am now, quicker on my storm than on a regular keyboard. I cant imagine going back to anything ...

in the BlackBerry Storm 9530 forum

Yea, I played with the device in the store for 5 min and I wasn't sure if I liked the new screen or not. This lasted all of 5 min for me when I got to actually use my phone. I love the new screen and all the freed up memory allows a much nicer user experience

Love my new Storm2!

in the BlackBerry Storm 9530 forum

Ok. So I have been used and abused by the 9530 since Nov 21st of 2008. I have had 6 of them and all of them were replaced by VZW no questions asked. I am a very heavy user with 4 emails being pushed, facebook, aim, google talk, and poynt as my primary apps that I use and use OFTEN. Honestly, I really didnt think there would be a big difference btw the 2 but it is a night and day ...

in the Article: Video Tour: BlackBerry Storm2 forum

I am currently on my 6th 9530 and 5 of the 6 phones we're not my fault. They were due to software or faulty screens etc. I just ordered a storm 2 and it should arrive in the mail tomorrow. I played with one in store today and I dont notice much difference in speed, etc btw OS 5.0 on my 9530 and 9550 either. I am just hoping the boost in memory will address the issues with the freezing ...

They are already advertising the LTE network and it is being test run in a few major cities already. I also believe that ATT only has exclusivity until 2010 http://phones.verizonwireless.com/3g/

in the HTC Imagio forum

RLR, You're very welcome. I hope that was helpful. I should've also mentioned I am using Windows 7 so I dont know if that makes a difference w/ re: to syncing. Overall what I have found with the phone is that it is pretty finger friendly, however, I use the stylus when inputting appointments, etc into my calendar. The touch flo is good looking, but its customization is very limited. eg, I can remove the stock icon but I can't ...

I am using this phone for 30 days to see how I like it. Thus far, I have had it for 2 weeks and so far so good. I came from a Blackberry Storm and using desktop manager, etc. With this phone all i did was plug it into the USB port and voila, my outlook and all my calendar info, contacts, etc were in the phone. I use aol mail and that i have to set up to ...

in the HTC Imagio forum

yes, actually it has 2. it comes with a back up. I got mine today bc I was tired of waiting for the TP 2. I downloaded 2 apps from the windows marketplace and i like them. GPS all the way around and i love how it incorporates the weather with my current location

in the HTC Touch Pro2 (CDMA) forum

Thats what I was thinking. I know it will definitely be able to upgrade to Win Mo 6.5, but I am not sure about Win7 since that seems to be way off in the future of 2010. Looking at the specs of this phone it looks like the processor speed is about half that of the Imagia, so I would maybe question if it could run Win 7? As a side note I have been running Windows 7 Home Premium ...

So I spoke with HTC America and they informed me that microsoft exchange gets pushed directly to the device but anything else like gmail, aol, etc has to be set on a timer that ranges every 5 min to every 24 hrs. Interesting to know if your coming from a blackberry device

Sep 26, 2009, 10:41 PM
in the HTC Touch Pro2 (CDMA) forum

SO I am a fed up BB Storm user and I am checking into new phones. I am debating btw the HTC, the storm 2 and the palm pre. Some things I know: The Pres battery life is horrendous but I love the UI and its size and the keyboard I could most likely get used too. The Storm2, I like my Storm but its been nothing but a problem since Day 1 last November 2008 so I am a little ...

Well after going into to VZW and talking to the guys....we found out that one of my family members on my plan has a 2 yr upgrade and I could always use that one. So I think I am just going to patiently wait...and I mean patiently wait lol for either the storm 2 or maybe the palm pre :) But in all honesty I am so ready to punt this phone across NYC lol

Re: Any Advice on what to say to VZW?
Sep 16, 2009, 5:05 PM
in the BlackBerry Storm 9530 forum

The only app I run is FB. I cant even run the new FB. I run FB v 1.3 bc 1.5 and higher completely messes up my phone (takes over messaging and phone). Either way im just FRUSTRATED. I'll take another peak at what apps etc I have. I just remember that I even deleted the games and anything extra that I dont use. I'll try and stop in the store when I have a moment to see if they ...

Loooong story short: So I am on my 5th storm and it keeps freezing...AGAIN. Now its not even a battery or 2 pull a day, it freezes btw every application switch esp with the phone. I called vzw and explained to them my frustrations and they FINALLY decided to at least give me an early upgrade at the ONE YEAR upgrade price which Im not happy with. A friend of mine basically just got handed the Tour in store bc ...

Ok, so I have had a storm since day 1 and I've been through the gamit with this phone and since the update its been relatively problem free...however... Since the new FB 1.5/1.6 it completely takes over my whole OS even if I turn off the contacts, messaging, and calendar integration. Does anyone have any suggestions? I use 1.3 without a problem but I reeeeally like the 1.6 layout and features. Any idea of how to remedy this? or has anyone ...
