firmware update
Are there more things my phone can do with the latest firmware update vesion 4? I have an orange env with version 2. Are there more features? Also, If I take my phone to a Verizon store should I remove the SD card before handing over my phone? Can I do the upgrade myself?
thanks,

Adobe flash lite for mobiles
Hi, Does anyone know how to get the adode flash lite application for mobile phones onto an orange env?
According to adobe the phone is compatible.
Thanks
first time charge
Hi, I just ordered my Env Orange and would like to know how long I will need to charge it before I use it for the first time. Will it have a partial charge already? Or is it best to charge it first? Also I downloaded a manual earlier last month that read that I should not answer or make a call while the phone is charging. Is this a valid warning and is it only for the home ...
Re: free ringtones
There are usually ringtone CDs and DVDs for sale on Ebay. They also include wallpapers screensavers and applications. I have bought a couple that were pretty nice. You need to be able to connect your phone to your computer to transfer them to your phone. AS always use software that you buy online at your own risk. :wink:
Which is better?
Is buying online any cheaper than buying a phone and service in a store? Or, are they the same? I plan to use a discount from my employer.
Thanks

Have you considered purchasing the phone locally through a sales agent? We do appreciate those that appreciate having a local store front for personal service when you need help...
I have considered both purchase options. I thought that online ordering would be easier. I suppose it would be nice to at least test the phone out in person before buying it. Will my corporate discount work for in store purchase. Do I need to bring proof of employment?
Thanks

I suggest get a new number on the online handset, then port after you get it in hand...
Is there a special procedure used to port a number after the phone is recieved? Would I call verizon from a different phone and request the port before activating the new phone?
Thanks for all replys,
Re: porting from TDMA
Also, I plan to use my corporate discount and get my phone (Env Orange) online.
Thanks
porting from TDMA
I plan to switch from AT&T TDMA to Verizon next month. How long will it take for my number to port? If it takes more than a couple of days, will I be able to use my current phone during this time?
Thanks
largest screen
Which current non smart phone has the largest screen? This would be for viewing videos, games, pics, internet, basically everything.
Thanks
combined discounts
I have a 14% discount on monthly plans from my employer, and a 15% discount from my school. Can the two be combined for a total 29% discount on wireless service?
thanks
Re: different internet plan for vayager?
I see it now. Thanks for the clarification :wink:
Re: Is VZW Blocking Goog?
It still works on the older TDMA at AT&T. The number is 18004664411 or 1800GOOG411. Wow, I have been calling this # for a while now and just realized the acronym :)
different internet plan for vayager?
I looked for the voyager on my employer discount site but, it is not on there yet.
So, I found the preorder option on the regular Verizon site. When I picked it with the premium plan, I was told that I had to select a V-Cast option for $15. I thought that V-Cast and unlimited web 2.0 were included with the premium plan. I tried the same plan with other premium phones and did'nt need to add V-Cast.
Is the V-Cast ...
Re: Sales: DSL, U-Verse, Cell Phones? Feedback?
Is there a plan that lets you combine wireless, cable, and DSL together? Or, maybe just cable and wireless together.
Thanks
more reminders
Lately, I have been recieving a daily text message reminding me of the Feb. 08 TDMA shut off. Today, I recieved 2 texts that read "Very Important! TDMA service will be discontinued." 8O
Has the shut-off date been moved up. A sales rep told me earlier this month that I had time to wait out the Q4-07 phones. I plan to make a move in mid December either AT&T or Verizon (depending on which has the best deal for ...
How many TDMA customers are left?
Just wondering how many others have'nt made the switch yet.
Re: mixed reviews
This will be my first Verizon phone. I think I will try the 30 day test drive. That way I can return it if it does'nt work well for me.
Thanks
Re: 5000 night & weekend minutes
I plan to switch in the middle of December. By then all the new Q4-07 phones should be out and I can get a newly released phone or a lower price on a current phone that is out now.
mixed reviews
I noticed that some Env owners have had trouble with thier phones from day one like the phone freezing up or the orange paint peeling. While others have had no problems at all. Is there anything I can do to make sure that the orange Env I eventually get will be in good working order? I'm looking at getting one in December unless I see a good deal before then.
Thanks
Re: Best deals
I blame lack of sleeep :wink:
Re: 5000 night & weekend minutes
How many of these special codes are there? Do they result in better deals for consumers?
Re: Best deals
Thanks, I just wondered if the full service in store purchase would give me perks like a free case or other free excessaries along with the employer's discount.
Re: 5000 night & weekend minutes
I have'nt heard of that add on.
5000 night & weekend minutes
This may be an repeated question. But, I would like to know if AT&T ever plans to extend the 5000 night and weekend minutes on the $39.99 450 minute per month plan to unlimited nights and weekends. Or will they just discontinue the $39.99 plan? The 450 anytime minutes work well for me but I do most of my talking on nights and weekends and have somtimes gone beyond 5000. The 5000 minute limit is the only thing hindering ...
Best deals
Are the best deals on wireless service online, or in Verizon retail stores. Online with my employer's discount I can get 17% off monthly service and 20% off phones and accesaries with no activation fee. I have heard that retail stores can match this and somtimes give free phones and accessaries. Does this mean that stores offer better deal? (Especially during the slower sales period at this time of year)
I'm looking at getting an LG Env.
Thanks
No contract to upgrade?
Recent news states that existing customers can upgrade without renewing or extending a contract. As a TDMA customer (holding out for Q4 07 phones and the best deal), I get text messages from AT$T about upgrading to GSM. Does this mean that I can now upgrade without entering a new contract?
Thanks,
lg env price drop?
Will the release of the voyager bring down the price of the Env (vx9900)?
Re: It's about time!
Don't they already have a Wi-Fi cafe up there?
Re: Is the new activation business slowing down?
OOPS. I meant better "deals" for customers
Re: Is the new activation business slowing down?
Will the slowing down result in better deald for customers?
test drive
Is it neccesary to let the sales rep know up front that you are planning to do a test drive? Or are these just regular contracts that can be cancled before 30 days? Also, if you can get a free phone with the plan does it make the retuns simpler since you won't have worry about getting money back for the phone. If you get a select or premium plan will the messaging and internet be covered or ...
Re: picking your plan
Actually, My plan is to start a PYP account as a seperate account and phone number without canceling my TDMA account. Then, if I like the coverage and service I can simply cancel the PYP and upgrade my TDMA to GSM the usual way. I would probably go through the process without telling them I am an existing TDMA customer if neccesary :wink: . Also, is it possible for post-paid customers to switch extras like medianet and messaging ...
picking your plan
I was talking to customer service on the phone and asked about the pick your plan accounts. I want to try out the GSM service before upgrading my TDMA account. The rep told me that I would spend less money and avoid activation fees if instead I upgraded to a GSM contract account and canceled before 30 days. I get a discount from my job of 15% using the premier site. He also stated that with a ...
voyager flash
Correct me if I am wrong, But when looking at the pics of the voyager and venus on the LG website
http://us.lge.com/products/category/ list/mobile%20phones_select%20by%20carrier_ve rizon.jhtml
There did not appear to be a flash on the camera. Does anyone know if the production models will have or need a flash?
thanks,
Re: Interesting offer

I wouldnt offer a phone like that. This guy has a TDMA phone that STILL WORKS! He barely uses his phone, so something basic like a Nokia will work for him. I remember when we offered V3xx's and SYNCs to TDMA customers earlier this year... A lot of them came back for being "too difficult to use"
Actually, I use it every day. It is a nokia 6560 from 2003. I can send and recieve text messages and send ...
Interesting offer
I am an AT&T TDMA customer waiting for the Q4/07 or Q1/08 phones to come out before deciding to switch to AT&T GSM or Verizon. In the meantime I just got a mailing form AT&T to upgrade to GSM for a free nokia 2610 or an LG CU405> the LG requires that I get the $9.99 Media Net feature. Plus, they offer 200 extra minutes a month for the first 12 months or a $25 credit. ...
