While I can't find a printed matrix of menu options for Lucent's Anypath system (Lucent doesn't seem to have published one) here's US Cellular's overview and most frequently used instructions: http://www.uscellular.com/services/voice-mail /voice-mail-instructions-anypath.html

Read the other responses in this thread as to why your Nokia 6265 is unlike any CDMA Nokia produced since (without their illegal reverse engineered chipset tweaks, newer NOKIA CDMA phones are unremarkable).

ORLY? Those CDMA chipsets are used in ALL handsets. And vendors like Motorola at least seem to do fine for reception without illegally tampering with their design. And if I understand correctly, the design changes that Nokia implemented allowed their phones favored access to the towers. At the expense of other handset designs. So if that's true, a group of NOKIA owners using the same tower could negatively impact network performance for others (in terms of capacity and coverage).

Incredible Handheld Multimedia Device?

"Signal was sorta iffy with the Incredible, much to my dismay. Sitting next to a Droid, the Incredible captured 2 bars to the Droid's 5 or 1 bar to the Droid's 3" So, you only tested it in great to good coverage areas? That's kind of scary. I like my phones to hold calls in less than good coverage areas. Motorola seems to do the trick.

Most people don't understand that the reason that Nokia's OLD CDMA phones (6019, 6235, 6255, 6265 and older) got great reception was because they had reversed engineered Qualcomm's chipset and done their own optimization... illegally, if i understand correctly (see the web for the results of the suit against Nokia). The newer models that failed testing were built by a Nokia SUBSIDIARY that had a valid license (not by Nokia) and used standard Qualcomm chips. They got horrible reception.

Re: What android phones could be coming to USCC?

From an April Report on Market Share of Smartphones in the US: "Also interestingly, Android and RIM were the only two handset makers to grow in the past three months. RIM grew by 1.3, and Android grew by 5.2 percent. Microsoft (NSDQ: MSFT) dropped the most, losing 4 percentage points and Apple (NSDQ: AAPL) lost 0.1 percent. "

Re: Why so secretive on what phones will be coming???

Many phones, even though they show up on Cellebrite and the rebate forms, simply fail testing and never make it into USCC customer hands. Why announce something that may not make the cut?

and the banter has been rock solid since LG redesigned the flex cable and software. the banter has become the anti-260.
