Custom SMS does not ring in holster/case
I set custom sounds (custom profile)for my text messages and it will not ring in the holster/case. The default text ringtone works fine. I have the latest software in the phone. Anyone else have this problem?
Re: Blackberry Manager 5.0 and the Verizon Tour
Problem solved. I was running XP sp2, I downloaded sp3 and it works! I like it.
Blackberry Manager 5.0 and the Verizon Tour
I have not been able to install the new manager even with the help of VZ techs and BB techs. It is the last part that has a problem. When attempting to sychronize with the BB site, it will not work. It just states "retry" which has failed each time. If anyone has a solution, let me know.
Premium plan required???
The store manager in los angeles informed me a premium plan is required. Lots of sruff flying around on phone scoop regarding required plans. I guess I(we)will have to wait until the phone is released to the stores on November 21st.
Re: Voyager predictive text?
I checked there. No luck.
I also checked the manual, see link below. No mention of predictive text either.

Re: Voyager predictive text?
Found the answer to my question here at phonescoop specifications. It does not have predictive text when using the touch screen. Darn
Re: Voyager predictive text?
Looked at the manual and there is no description for predictive text. Perhaps I missed it. Where did you get the information it has predictive text for the touch screen?
P.S. Yeah, who needs predictive text for the qwerty keyboard,duh
Voyager predictive text
Is there predictive text available when typing text messages from the touch screen or qwerty key board?
Re: New Firmware does not fix vibrate
but it does resolve the text notification overriding the alarm notification. The store tecnicians have a bulletin on the fixes. Ask a manager if the tech gives you a hard time.
On my 2nd e815. Why does this phone do that?
does your phone sometimes freeze (pop up window remains on display) after sending a text message and you need to push the END button? If so,did you notify Motorola and what was their response?
Okay, if you have not had this issue, no need to reply. Thank you, Jack

V710 extended battery on the 815 with what kind of back?
Verizon is selling the v710 extended battery for the e815 on their website. BUT does it fit the 815 with the original battery door?
Re: Yes! BUT
It all depends on how you post in another phone forum. If you stay with the facts of your experience, without emotional comments, then it is informative. No need to bash the phone because you will only get a major backlash. We have the LG VX-8100 (hers)AND the Motorola E815 (mine). I do get better reception on the 815 which is important to me. The ability to read text messages on the 8100 external ...
Some homespun advice
okay, I will offer you this suggestion; do not use the e815 with her wired bluetooth setup. Sometimes there is a conflict and you are experiencing this for yourself. If you really like the 815 other than this one problem, and you have exhausted verizon, moto, etc. technical support, and the folks on this forum have no answers, well then, try howardforums. There are tons of technical information and people willing to help. Jack
http://www.howardforums.com/index.php ?s=74889edd5b24028b92d50a92359a9e7d
Yes!
If you have information and/or experience with the 8100 or the 815, and you choose to inform others of this, then by all means do so. That is what the forum is for...to inform!
Personal or emotional attacks on forum members are not appreciated or productive.
Thanks, Jack

Re: red borders new to e815 along with price increase
Good! We 815 folks will revolt if verizon attempts to border us in. No borders, no borders, no...
Too much coffee.
red borders new to e815 along with price increase
Checked verizon website Monday 8/29. Price is up and so are those nasty red borders on the main screen as depicted in the photo. Same ones on the LG8100 whose price has dropped. Seems the price just flipped flopped on these phones. Go figure.
8100 price drop!
Yup! the price went down on the 8100 and the price went up on the moto e815. Check the Verizon website.

Re: Missed Calls Call Indicator - I think I got it right...
I also suggest you find a verizon store that has an e815 activated. Then, you can check it out for yourself. Make a list of things that are important for your needs, then give it a whirl. good luck, jack
accessing contacts question: for those who might know
If I have 30 names under "S" starting with Sam and ending with Sue, is there a faster way than scrolling through 30 "S" contacts to reach the "Sue" contact? With my samsung, I can type "S" then the cursor moves over and I can then type "U".
Re: Interesting results on my echo test.
The 815 does not suck! We were testing the Plantronics V510 bluetooth headset on the 815 and Lg 8100. The person on the receiving end heard an echo. The person was a plantronics tecnician. She asked if the volume on the phones were set on high. They were. We lowered the sound on the phones and the echo on both phones is gone. The volume on the plantronics is excellent. We are happy with ...
Re: e815 Call Disconnect tone?
Were you looking at a samsung phone? The samsung phone does have a disconnect tone. It will beep when a call is dropped or disconnected because of any reason. It acts just like a land line. When you get disconnected on a land line you get a dial tone. Great feature! The dropped call notification is when your phone loses contact with a cell tower and the call is dropped.

Re: whens the alarm clock problem gonna be fixed??
Contact motorola tech support on the motorola.com site. Tell them you are aware other users have contacted them with this "glitch" as they describe it. Ask them "who is responsible for creating a software fix for this problem and when will it be available".
The more people contact them...
Motorola did confirm it is a glitch.
Re: Vibration mode question
I received the moto leather case as a present. I will be purchasing the phone on August 15. If I cannot feel "good vibrations", I will try the combination.
thanks
Re: Very important question on battery life
The EVDO/1xrt map indicates I reside in the xrt area (santa monica mountains at beverly glen blvd and mulholland drive). When I drive down one mile I am in the EVDO area. I hope this does not drain my battery.
Re: Volume Bugs, Software Updates, and BT Headsets….A Few Rants
The plantronics headset your refer to is not bluetooth. This new headset is:
Plantronics Voyager 510 Bluetooth Headset.
Re: Very important question on battery life
Do you get EVDO in the area? Do you ever go up beverly glen blvd to mulholland and lose service? Ever drive any of the other canyons and lose service?
Vibration mode question
If you use either the moto or verizon leather belt holster, can you feel or hear the vibration?
Very important question on battery life
I will be using the 815 mostly as a cellphone. If you are using the phone primarily for this, what has been your average talktime and standby time without using a bluetooth headset. If you use a bluetooth headset, please specify what headset and average talktime and standby time. I live in Sherman Oaks, a suburb of Los Angeles.
Re: Please sign a petition regarding the E815
I signed! Now what?
Re: Alarm problem (Motorola response to my e-mail)
Dear Jack,
Thank you for contacting Motorola e-mail support, once again.
Regarding your concern, currently, the alarm feature works as you described in your e-mail. If you receive a text message, the text message us ignored, and the alarm is set, the alarm will be disabled. Currently, this is how the phone works, however, we are working feverishly on a software upgrade to improve the quality of this phone, since this feature may result in an inconvenience for our consumers.

EXCELLENT CUSTOMER REVIEW at CNET
"Sadly disappointing...oh, what could have been..." by Animal Crow
Pros: EXTREMELY well-built, the best vibrate feature out there, (limited) bluetooth and miniSD compatibility, nice screens, nice stereo speakers, menus well-designed, read txt messages without opening phone
Cons: Camera is terrible, speakerphone is mediocre at best, earpiece volume issues, numerous software bugs, some of which can cause rebooting and freezing...and more!
First of all - if this phone truly met its potential, it would be the undisputed king. Nothing would even come ...
Re: V710 versus E815 reception
Thank you for your response. I had hoped to get more than one response. Maybe people who had the 710 felt they got burned or they live in an area where analog is important, hence they did not get the 815.
Re: Anyone care to comment?
I read about this at Howardforums. I tried this at a Verizon store. It's true. I suggest you contact Motorola @ 866-289-6686. Please post their response. Thank you
Re: Phone tools problem
Call Verizon Mobile Web Office 866-788-9387. I have been informed Mobile Phone Tools can only be used for the phone contacts. Because of Vcast and EVDO, the phone cannot be used as a modem. It is written in the contract...damn!
