Re: Fit to screen in Internet Explorer...? Anyone?
I agree with the previous reply, although I think Opera is a better browser. Skyfire is cool bc it allows flash video content, but Opera is more like a desktop browser.
Re: Release Date
late Q3 early Q4
Re: So this is a D/C phone?
Actually it shouldn't even be that difficult, as almost all customers have already been migrated, and the transition to qChat is intended to be seamless. Only question at this point is whether or not you are in one of the markets (45+) that have the service currently available. If so, a store rep will be able to help you. If not, you'll have to wait till sometime between now and the end of the year.
Re: Lots of questions, new to the game
Just got a response from Motorola on the underscore...
you have to hit the Function key followed immediately by the Shift key. This will bring up a large menu of special characters and the underscore is the first selection.
Tried this and it works with a small delay. The trick is to release the Fn button. If you hit both at the same time, the symbol menu will not come up.
Also, again, this is on the Sprint Q, but the ...
Re: Lots of questions, new to the game
1)Didn't notice that until I read your post. I'll email MOTO and see if there is something that we are missing.
2)Nothing beats a sanyo for reception, especially the older ones. While the network could have some impact, it is more likely the phone.
3)Manufacturers indicate signal strength differently, and even the same manufacturer can have some variation between models, especially when internal antennae are concerned.
4)160 is the system imposed limit on SMS tect messages. The Q should auto-divide a ...
Re: VZW is getting the CURVE
Confirmed? Care to let a fellow Sprinter know when?
Come on people...
Okay, so this is NOT an iPhone. The UI on the iPhone is spectacular, and I cry myself to sleep every night after praying that Sprint will get some cupertino lovin before I retire in 2044. Having said that, the Touch is a move in the right direction, even if it isn't as perfect an iteration as Apple's first venture. It does retain some functionality and capability that the iPhone lacks, namely MS Exchange Syncing, Live TV viewing (via ...
Re: V9m Plastic Holster
Great phone. Get some sort of cover (Zagg Inc. makes a cool skin to proteck that precious shine) but I have it and have no regrets. Volume is good, speaker is GREAT for talk or music, and call quality is top notch. TV is quick and will even broadcast sound over stereo BT unlike every other TV phone, web is comparable to Samsung and LG, and processor is up to par with other Power Vision handsets (no lag ...
Re: US Cellular Firmware Leaked
Does this flash disable carrier specific apps (i.e. Sprint TV, Nav, etc) since the Java doesn't work? I would assume so, but it doesn't hurt to ask...
Re: Battery
Tough one. Really depends if you need the PDA functionality or not. The V9 is a great phone, but is somewhat limited in its ability to do PDA stuff, i.e. email/web/schedule. It is definitely a top notch phone - i think Moto sound quality is unbeatable - and to be honest, the mogul is not loud enough all the time. Personally I am carrying both, one for talk (V9M) and one for data (Mogul). If I had to ...
Re: RAZR2 capable of email?
Not sure on USC, but I know Sprint doesn't have that feature. A few of the other gadget sites (engadget/gizmodo/phonearena) had a comparo of the big 4 and what carrier got what features. If i remember, the AT&T one was the only one with email ability.
Re: Sprint V9m vs Verizon V9m
verizon waters down all their phones to create a "uniform customer experience across handsets and thereby improve customer satisfaction." That's wireless-speak for dumb down high end features and customizability and lock down bluetooth so they can charge you sixty bucks a month for a broadband card.
Re: V9M or wait for ROKR z6?
Not sure what to tell you. Rokr sounds like a great phone, especially if Moto actually puts their new Linux powered os in it, but the RAZR2 is a sweet phone, and I personally prefer the flip form factor. Plus that phone is supposed to be out soon so you could always try the RAZR out and if it dodn't work for you return it within 30 days. Who knows, the rokr might even be out by then. ...
Re: Battery
For the size this battery is great. Maybe it is just because it is in comparison to my Mogul, but i am a heavy user, and this lasts me 2 days. I haven't had a phone do that since the nineties. Seriously though, my last phone was an m610 and this stomps that phone no question. Initial conditioning is important, moreso than i experienced with other phones, but after that, look forward to not having to plug your phone ...
Re: Battery life
On another post someone reccomended turning your beam receive off. It seems like an easy fix, but I usually had to plug in at 6 and unless I am on the internet constantly and talking for 2 hrs plusI have at least 40% at night now. It's like a different phone.
Re: Mogul vs. Treo755p (Sprint)
Not an easy answer, but I'll try and help you out. I have a Mogul, my wife has a 755, so I have experience with both. Neither of us would trade for the other. There are other browsers (most notably Opera Mini) that will work on the treo (and Mogul for that matter) but if internet is high priority, the Mogul DEFINITELY trumps the treo bc of faster browsing and built in WIFI. I can't ...
Re: youtube on 6800
sorry looks like they changed the format of the site. i'll try and repost with the right link.
Re: Pearl 2 Release Date...
The codes for the CDMA pearl (2) are loaded in Sprint's system. Probably means mid to late Sept on that carrier.
Re: youtube on 6800
There is a link on PPCgeeks.com inside the Titan forum that works great (below). Youtube mobile seems to default when on EVDO and full youtube on WIFI. Just follow the directions. You may need to be logged in.

Re: Free Ringtones for the Mogul..! =D
So just as an FYI, the same thing works if you purchase the songs through the music store and want to get a version to play in the phone's windows media player. The biggest benefit here is that wmp will allow you to do other things while music is playing in the background, where the music store is touchy at best and stops when you open another app.
Re: New Sprint TV Question!
MobiTV does work on the Mogul. It is not accessed through the Sprint Content Menu on the phone, however on the MobiTV website (I'm there on my Mogul right now) it lists the PPC 6800 as a supported device. Hope this makes your decision easier. I have used both phones, and I have to be honest the Mogul gets more impressive every day...
Re: Help - Trying to decide if I should get this!
no contest, no question. see related comments here.

Re: switch from moto Q
okay so its been a few weeks but I have been using the phone long enough now that I feel like I can make a qualified statement about the phone. It is hands down a better device. battery is at least double, processor is faster, screen spectacular by comparison. I use the phone with my work email and this is probably the biggest pro. attachments open quickly and easily, and even large or zipped files are no slower ...
Re: sprint or verizon...
another thing to consider is the cost of data plans. sprint's data is 15-30 dollars cheaper per month, which will essentially pay for the mogul over a 2 year agreement. I am biased as I work for sprint, but I think sprint's status as number one in data usage speaks for itself.
Re: just reposting in case anybody wants easy mms and others.....
got some of the downloads to work by going to them on my mogul, but the link to the touch interface and the real x button aren't working. any help will be appreciated .
Re: just reposting in case anybody wants easy mms and others.....
Sorry, but I have tried three of these threads and none of them exist (threaded SMS, picture mail, HTC Touch home screen) Any suggestions?
Re: GoodLink approved?
The biggest benefit of Good is the access it gives you to your corp address book, which is a huge bonus if you ask me. You are able to search in personal contacts, or your global address book, and even copy people from the latter to the former. The downside is that you need to have the server in order to do this, which is not cheap, and not practical for an individual user. Also, one small disadvantage ...
Exchange Server=Battery Killer?
So I got this phone almost a week ago. Truth be told I am trying it out and comparing to the Mogul. Initial impressions were a landslide victory for the 8830, but then a few days later, I got the BES hooked up. Now my battery is gone by 5:00. Even my Q lasted longer than that. Any tips for a newbie to the crackberry on why my batt is so atrocious? I played with it ...
Re: Verizon 8830 does not work in Puerto Rico!!
Sprint has home service area coverage in PR. Not 100% on the BB, but I have coleagues who use phone, web, aircard all seamlessly. Just fyi
Re: bb8830 vs treo700wx
I'll echo the above comment. The treo is a nice concept for everything that it has, but the BB is simply a better phone. More stable, fewer resets, better feel, smaller, lighter, and when my store sells a blackberry I don't recall one ever coming back. The only downside to be aware of with Sprint is that the web will be more expensive on the BB for unlimited data than the treo, but it is still cheaper ...
Re: Memory Loss when remove battery
On Sprint's first PPC (6600) this was true, and removing the battery would erase your contacts about 25% of the time. The 6700 corrected this problem, however, and it would stand to reason that HTC is not going to revert back to volatile memory, which I believe was the cause of this issue. The Sales rep you talked to needs to be slapped!
Re: Blackberry Pearl - verizon
Is the CDMA version going to support OTA goodies like the VCast/Power Vision, or just be a blackberry with a camera?
Re: GPS
Good to know, thanks. Is other premium content supported, like Sprint TV/ringer downloads etc?
Re: GPS
Is this phone capable of running Navigator without a BT GPS receiver? None of the other smartphones have been, including the 6700 and the 755p.
Re: switch from moto Q
Ordered my Mogul and am switching from a Q. Let you know in a week or two.
(Hey that rhymes...)
Re: Hey where IS everybody?
The rest of us are waiting for our Moguls to come in the mail, jealous of you early adopters :-)...
Re: How do you punch in a name?
With most IVRU systems, the letters are reflected on a standard phone keyboard and the system uses logic to narrow the options based on the keys you enter. The numbers are what counts, not the letters. As such, you can still dial as if your keypad had letters on it (2=abc, 3=def, and so on) using the numbers on the qwerty keyboard. Note that 7 and 9 both represent 4 letters each.
Sprint Yet?
Has anyone seen the Sprint version, or if not, is anyone aware of a release date?
