LG VX-8300
car kit
ok so my phone got a little wet but everything seems to be working ok except it says "car kit" on the main screen and also on the front display when it is closed. does anyone know what this means or how to turn it off?
...
The same thing happened to my 8300 and there was no way I could get that "car kit" off the phone, so I chucked it and got the Casio G'zOne with military specs; you can get it as wet as you want, drop it, and anything else. I don't want to have to baby my phone anymore.
...
Try to clean the port on the bottom of the phone with rubbing alcohol and a toothbrush. Mineral deposits from when you got it wet are completing the circuit between the little silver contacts in the back of the phone. Thats why it says "car-kit" Good Luck

Thanks. It worked like a charm. I will go back to using the 8300 now. It is less than perfect, but seems like the best phone VZW has for the time being.

I did try the Casio G'zOne. It is one tough phone, but I discovered that it is too heavy and bulky to be carrying around on my belt all the time. Also, the software is too limited. It does have a great 2 megapixel camera, though.

Aren't you a bit "Less Than Perfect"?
