Re: Outside Display

Menu -> 0000000 (zero 7 times) -> 2. Field Tests -> (scroll down to see) *.Power Save Mode -> Off -> OK and then press END and it will stay on. If your battery doesnt last as long as it used to then u know :wink:

Re: question about messaging.
Are u serious? That blow big time. Im on the 50 msg unlimited IN txt plan. I mean they cant take away what I have now, so when I go to renew 2 yrs from now I will end up having to pay the 10 dollar plan....bastards
Re: V07 problems
Well, for the GIN apps u can call customer service and have them credit ur account. Then, whenever they make the app available again for u to download then go ahead and u wont be charged for it
Re: question about messaging.
Thats free to other verizon people. Any other PIX/FLIX that u send to people other than verizon or even if u email it to an address than it will take away from ur messages.
Just use #DATA (or #3282) to get a breakdown of ur msgs PIX/TXT/FLIX
Re: mp3 storage
Well, it depends on if ur using a memory card or not. If u use a memory card than it all depends on the size of the card
If ur using the phones memory then u only 2MB, which is good enough. I have about 6 ringtones that I put on the phone myself. They range from 5-30 seconds. I dont put the whole ringtone on the phone coz it just eats up space, and plus u dont hear the ...
Re: anyone? anyone? please help
Well, here's the thing about the software. Basically if ur not screwing around with other settings or other files, then putting mp3 ringtones on the 8100 is a snap. It takes me about 5mins total for one song.
Its a risk yeahh, but ive been doing this since the VX6000 and havent had a problem yet.
Re: BACKUP w/ BitPim BEFORE updating w/ Ver.7 !!!!!!!!!!!!
Hmmm, that makes me think...why do they store contacts on their machines? There should be a violation somewhere. Glad that didnt happen to me when I upgraded.
Re: Just got V07 MP3 help please
AFAIK, there is not much a different between V06 and V07. I know for sure that V07 SOMETIMES screws up the ERI info and causes the phone to think its roaming. My phone did not do this when I got the update, but it fixed many things in terms of the volume fluctuation and camera lag.
Re: Backlight Bizarre on the 8100
Yeahh its the same thing with the keypad and main display backlight. I guess its not that big of deal to verizon coz V07 still has the same issue.
I hope they will eventually fix this later on
Re: Call Announce is awesome - How come no one talks about this ?
Cool! Good find! Gonna have to test it out 2nite
Re: This is Wrong!
If u lose ur games/GIN apps just call customer service and have them credit u. Simple as that
Re: Just got V07
1 and 2) I dont know I dont use the mp3 player...i have my own mp3 player
3) Yes u have to go the tools and settings and change the shortcut to My Mp3 instead of My VCast Music
Re: Just got V07
So yeahh if u want to carry around a headset with u for the sole purpose of being able to shut ur phone while ur speaker is on thats cool with me. I can deal with the phone being open when I talk to someone
Re: Just got V07
U cant close the phone and use the speaker coz the speaker u talk into is blocked when u close the phone....nextel phones have an external speaker that u speak into to be able to do this....no software version will fix that...
Re: Version V07 recalled.......
I guess V07 is a compilation of V05 and V06 but since theyre having problems with V07 they want the stores to flash V06 instead until they can get V07 fixed....V07 and V06 I fix the bugs
Re: Version V07 recalled.......
All verified...go upgrade but u might not be able to get V07 from what I read a few mins ago. U might just get V06 which is just the Music On Demand(MOD) but it also address all of the above bugs
Re: Just got V07
Well, to put a squash to all the version number confusion heres the pic of my phone with the V07 on it. Plus I also got bored and took a quick video of the camera to show the lag problem is now fixed here are the links

Re: Just got V07
No no....V07 NOT V06 was just released. I will be posting up pics later today after I get out of work. V06 was recalled b/c of some coding issues so they recalled it and then released V07 today
Just got V07
Well, just got my 8100 flashed about an hour ago. First thing I checked for was the version number to make sure they flashed it...and it now says T81VZV07 :)
Second thing I checked for was my mp3 ringtones that were ALREADY on my phone. They were still there AND they PLAYED perfectly no problems. I have about 5-6 mp3 ringtones that I put on the myself and they work just fine.
I dont have a miniSD card, so ...
Re: is it only available in vcast areas?
Well, in the article it says that if u download the song from a PC then u only have to pay .99 cents and then transfer it to ur phone through the miniSD card (thats of course u have one, coz I dont lol), but it also says that if u want to download it straight to ur phone then u pay 1.99 to do that plus im sure u have to be in a vcast area (which Im ...
