Weird bug on Sidekick LX, anyone else?

Ever since the most recent OTA update, my phone occasionally stops displaying all text other than the first character on the line. Example, when I open a text message, all the first letters on each line display , but nothing else. I called T Mobile and they said they would call back in 2 hours, but they never did. =\

Only fix so far is restarting the phone...

CANT DECIDE BETWEEN LX OR SLIDE HELP!!!

ok so i plan on buying a sidekick soon
but one problem, i don't know which one i want
SLIDE: i like the color of the scarlet slide
and how sturdy the sliding mechanism feels
i don't know about the keyboard though
i'm a 17 yr old boy and i have pretty large fingers
and i like the overall shape of the slide
LX: LOVE the screen, great keyboard
like having a flash for the camera
(even though the camera sucks, slide's camera is better)
i don't really like how big it is
and how flimsy the swivel feels
also don't like that there is less internal
memory than the slide
and now that they are the same price
i'm really stuck!
(i would get the brown skLX absolutely hate blue)
any comments or suggestions would be great
I had the slide before I had the LX and honestly the slide is poo. Overall I like the LX better. It actually comes with a memory card (64mb is what mine came with). I prefer the swivel screen because I've had SK's since they first came out and it's...

Can Opera be put on the Sidekick LX?

I'm curious if I could put Opera on a sidekick lx. Id like to be able to check out Youtube and what not.

Im trying to figure out a way to put ringers on the this F'er also...

thanks for any help in advance!
opera should be compatible with the sidekicks, BUT opera does not support flash-based videos

and to let you know, you cannot make opera your default browser because it is not a full browser, its just a program

Ringtone

I just got the sidekick and I want to customize its ringtone but have no ideas where to go. I've used a Dash, n pearl before and this LX is sorta confusing to navigate around.
😁 I would definately have to say that the only way that you can get ringtones is if you buy them on your sidekick through t-mobile (Catalog) but to change your ringtone you enter into the phone menu, hit the menu button, hit settings, then hit genera...

I just got the sidekick lx and it takes way way longer to retieve my aol mail than it did on my sidekick 3. Anyone else having this problem? Also, does anyone know how to set up the phone so you can view videos on tiny tube?

THE SIDEKICK STORY

As someone who runs a T-mobile kiosk in the middle of a shopping mall. Not only is it our most popular phone, but it's the pioneer of messaging phones. Why do you think all the other carriers started carrying messaging phones. Because the sidekick sales have been solid for going on 5 years all the way back to the orginal sidekick. T-mobile isn't stupid either they continue to keep interest level going by coming out with new models and improving the device. The sidekick ID is only $50 now making ita affordable to almost everyone.
true dat

SIDEKICK LX OR SIDEKICK SLIDE & HOW OLD IS 2 OLD FOR SIDEKICK

hi.. so im 28 yrs old and dying to leave this whole blackberry world for a while... just want something new. Looking into the sidekick lx or slide.. question 1.. this is supposedly targeted for the "younger market" thinking teens... so am i too old for it.. lol serious question. 2nd question if i do opt to change to sidekick.. which one do i go for LX or slide.. i love the slide feature but the keyboard looks like it was made for a child playing with a toy. plus the keyboard isnt as comfy as the LX. The LX is bigger and bulkier yet looks more grown up and has a great keyboard and large screen. Ah what to do?!
I would say go with your first instinct. Every time I want a new phone I usually have two in mind. But one stands out more. It's just phycology, you won't be happy until you have EXACTLY what your brain wants.

Sharp Sidekick LX vs Motorola Sidekick Slide...

I love Sidekicks, although am in huge debate about what sidekick should i get. I saw both are incredible, but i have to decide myself in one. Which one is the best??? I have heard that the Slide is over the LX, but am not 100% sure. Please anyone help me!!!!! I really need to know from those who already have one of those two!
I actually just upgraded to the Sidekick LX after having the Sidekick Slide. I prefer the Sidekick LX because the screen is nicer and bigger and the keyboard is much more roomier. They are virtually the same phone but other than those two difference t...

Bluetooth headset?

Ive been trying to use my new insignia bluetooth headset with my sidekick LX and it doesnt seem to be working. This is depressing because I spent a fairly large ammount on it. Any clue how to make it work?

Sidekick lx $180 @ Best Buy

I went into Best Buy a few weeks ago and they are selling the lx for $180 with new actv/2 yr contract....its under their new launch of Best Buy Mobile. I didn't see it up on their website but definitely check out your local store.
How about if you already have a line open? You know the price? @ bestbuy
Apparently it's only available in some regions....mine is in the Delaware/Philly region and I know its not in the DC Area. So I guess just check your local place...got mine the other day for $150.

V-Card only OPP Bluetooth profile?

Was looking at the specs for the phone, and it notes that OPP only works w/a V-Card... what does that mean exactly?

Reason I ask, I have a co-worker w/one of these phones that I'm trying to transfer files to (mp3's, etc), and I'm using a Cingular-based LG CU320 to no avail.

Any ideas on how this can be done? Thanks!

Is it still missing.....

these things that my Kick3 doesn't have:

Alarm Clock

Zoom for the camera

A case that will protect the #$%@ thing so it doesn't get all battered like the one I have (and I don't mean that black nerd pouch that it came with in the box).
has alarm clock 🙂 , no zoom 😢
