LG Dare VX-9700

I currently own the Voyager and I am very disappointed in the video playback. During the hockey season I signed up to get premium videos from my favorite team - the were so small it was nuts.

How is the video on the Dare? I am giving serious consideration to getting a iPhone as I have been impressed with the entire phone.

I tried again to look at the Dare and was told not until the 3rd would it be available in the stores.

Just thought I'd let all Dare owners know. Unfortunately, I do not know what the upgrade is supposed to improve. I upgraded from V05 to V06 Monday and haven't noticed anything different.

Bought a mint used Dare.
Activation denied on web site, c cust.
service. They say can't activate on my Plan
America Choice Family 700 minutes.Must go to the newer Nation Plan cause phone won't work on America Choice. I wanted to use my unused minutes for browsing, not pay as you go @ 1.99 per
Is this true answer? They say no contract extention needed.
Any way around this.
Sorry for long post.

Did LG or Verizon kill the Dare? Mines been acting up, it just locks up and i have to sometimes pull the battery to restart it. I was going to call Verizon and get a new one since this is only 5 months old, but if they killed it off I might have to get something else. Any one know anything about the Dare and Verizon?

Is it harmful to leave the phone plugged in to the charger overnight even when turned off? I was told "not to charge it for over 3 hours" or it will damage the Li ion battery.

i was wondering does it come with games and where i can get more or what type? flash games of java games work?

I was wondering if anyone knows if there are different themes available besides the black and white ones?

"While supplies last" has been added to Verizon's site.

I've decided that my next phone will be the DARE...got a couple of questions if you don't mind helping me out...

I've read some about the proximity sensor having issues if it's covered in any way, even if using a clear skin or clear screen protector, has this been the case for the majority of users?

I've looked at Bodyguardz and Invisible Shield by Zagg...I'm leaning toward Bodyguardz, reviews have stated it's easier to apply than the I.S. and it lasts longer without yellowing or peeling/cracking off...anyone have any input about either of these?

Thanks.

I am thinking of swapping my storm for a dare...can I do the same things on the dare?

i use facebook, myspace, aim, yahoo messenger, pop email and internet.


is that possible? I need it explained idiot proof lol thanks all 🙂

I just got the iclone - LG Dare - so that I could stay with Verizon. Fortunately many of the features are very intuitive because the instructional user guide is not much more that a quick start guide. It addresses the most basic stuff in painful detail (over and over) and does not address full capabilities with any useful direction. It painfully begins each direction with 3 part instruction on unlocking the screen (touch the lock icon on the screen, duh!) and then proceeds with the how to, but only in the really basic stuff. And while it does give some "how to", it does not give the "why you would or would not want to" choose particular options. In other words, it really does not address functionality. It even misses the boat on some b...

OK I am just trying to push my contacts and calendar from Outlook to my LG Dare. I have tried to use BitPim, I'm not happy with how it works, does anyone have a different software to try?

TIA

I know LG says that the max size is 8gig, but has anyone put a larger card? 16, 32?

Was just curious to know if anyone knows if you can add your own ringtones to the phone? Possibly via memory card or is that option not available on the phone?

🙂 Hi I was hoping someone could help me with this-when i was in a vzw store, they could not. I currently have a pink curve-so-can the dare copy and paste like you do with a bb? Also, is it really that difficult navigating on the web with the Dare? ie. how do you 'scroll' up on a page-is it by touching and'holding' the page as you move your finger up? the model in the store did not work properly!! tia for anyone that can help before i decide to upgrade my ph!

Can i just pop in an sd card and listen to music or do i have to set up rhapsody and make a playlist to listen? I used to have a mogul with sprint and it had windows media player so i could just pop in an sd card and pick the song i wanted to play and it played. I put the sd card into the dare and i couldnt even seee the music on the card.. Please help. Thanks

🙄 I am a mac user; also (due to living in rural mountainous area)verizon is the only game in this little town. I have finally sorted through all verizon phones and have decided that the dare comes closest to meeting my needs and I have played with it and like the interface. The big unknown is mac compatibility. I have spoken to at least a half dozen people who work for verizon (all of whom assure me that they are 100% certain that their answers are correct) who completely contradict each other. The answers range from "it is in no way compatible" to "music, pics, contact list,notes, etc. can easily be shared with mac via micro sd card or bluetooth". Any feedback from those of you mac users with the Dare is appreciated. I'm still pr...

The only daring thing about this phone is the actual purchase!!!

I have a few movies that i am trying to load onto my dare, but i just cant seem to find a good converter.

so far i have tried 'Super' and 'Quick Media Converter'. i'll admit i do like 'super' and it works fine, but it comes with so much adware that my computer cant keep up.

any recommendations? what converter do you use?
