Re: Ignore Unknown/Blocked calls ????
geeeez, how hard could that be, if you don't find an entry in my phonebook, don't ring
Re: several questions about eris
are you still paying AOL just for email ???
Keep your screen names and go to the free webbased AOL
After they hosed everyone and deleted their webpages overnight, didn't seem to be a reason to stay
Ignore Unknown/Blocked calls ????
is there any phone, carrier, software that will simply not ring/vibrate if the caller is unkwown or blocked (and/or the number is not in my phonebook)
Just send blocked or unknowns to my voicemail, i don't even want to know they are calling
thanks
SWF - calendar ?
I am surprised that we can't use the monthly calendar as a backdrop on the DARE. I used this on my old A670, and it is very handy for me.
Anyone know how I could just use the Charging screen one as a wallpaper, or is there an SWF file that would do it (and had some cool graphics added) ???
Thanks
Re: version 5 firmware
Got v5 last night
I do think that the screen response is better/faster. I used to have to do multiple pushes to get the icon to unlock, and finally would go the switch on the side. That seem much better.
Does anyone know why this isn't OTA ??? is it an actual limitation, or was it an arbitrary decesion on Verizon's part ???
Re: Nuisance calls!!!
oppps, "they CAN talk to my voicemail" .............
Re: Nuisance calls!!!
Why can't there just be a standard feature of "no ring" if unidentified, or not in phone book ?????
If there ID is blocked, or they aren't in my phonebook, they can't talk to my voicemail
Re: recording a call
during a call, select the "list" icon (lower right), and one of the options is "voice record"
Re: Music Playing ONLY in Alphabetical Order
If I select SHUFFLE, it plays in random order ...............
Re: camera issues
my problems are usually because the settings don't stay put, and I'm not set up the way I think. why can't the leave them the way I set them ????
recording a call
when you record a call in progress - do you only get the other person, not your own voice ????
Re: silly issues - connecting arrows go wrong way !
I think it actually gets confused when you switch horizontal/vertical display
silly issues - connecting arrows go wrong way !
funny, I noticed last night using the Web, or Music, or something that brought up the red and black arrows that go around while "connecting", that they rotate in the wrong direction, looked silly ......
Re: cable
I looked for half an hour on the Verizon online store, and can not find it there.
Thanks for the second source
Re: online manual ????
no, I don't work for V
The first thing I do with any new equipment is download the manual - searching the PDF is way easier than trying to find it in the paper copy.
And I keep a copy on each PC
the online thing is pretty, but Flash is way too annoying
they'll post it eventually
online manual ????
anyone found an online PDF of the manual ?
this always helps me, but so far I can't find one online
Re: GPS
I thought it was a flat $3 a day - they don't mention data transfer charges ????
Re: Initialization Error
so i leave the phone ON, and pull the Battery ???
Does that lose any settings ???
What does SYNC do for me ??? Can I get Playlists backed up on the PC with it ???
I did have a couple of tracks that played fine, but had little "x"s next to them, i don't know why, i didn't see that icon in theicon glossary
thanks
Re: Initialization Error
you mean actually physicalkly remove the battery (5 seconds ?)
powering off/on didn't help
do you understand what it si doing when it 'reads music into to memory" (takes 10 seconds)
it can't be reading the 1.2G of songs off the card into the phone memory - it's too small. Is it just reading the titles, info, etc ????
thanks
Initialization Error
I've got 308 songs in the My Music
fairly often, when hitting the next track button, it freezes and after 10 seconds it gives me an "Initialization Error".
then it 'reads songs into memory" and starts working again, but will do it again later. zIt usually doesn't get thru all 308 songs during this reads, but errors, starts over, and finishes the second time.
Re: music to bluetooth ????
thanks, is there a model number ???
my verizon - enter zip code ???
when I use My verizon, ti asks me first for my zip code my billing address - but can't figure out how I'm suppsed to input that ????
music to bluetooth ????
Love the phone .... question;
I have an older mono Bluetooth headset, that works fine wth the phone, no issues connecting, making calls, etc.
I was able to easily transfer MP3s from the PC to the phone, they play fine, but I was expecting them music to go to the headest when it was connected ??
No ???
is it because it is not a Stereo headset ????
Also, one small issue - the Voice Command "Play" will correctly highlight a music track, says ...
Is microSDHC same thing as microSD ????
Is microSDHC same thing as microSD ????
dumb (?) question
ummmm, all I find are 4GB microSDHC - is SDHC the same as SD ????
can i use a microSDHC in the Dare ????
Re: .... sigh .... I really wanted to love this phone
i'd go with one of the touch screens, but they all seem only about 50% of the way there - they response I get when using them in the store would make me crazy.
I may have to go back to a regular flip
.... sigh .... I really wanted to love this phone
but it is going back.
10 days of "what ? are you still there ? where did you go ? hello, you there ?" really wore me down
and, even at full volumes, the earpiece is barely OK
it isn't the reception - 3-4 bars all the time, it's the design
if you cup your hand pefectly under the phone, to channel your voice - people hear you fine, deviate, even a little, and they think you are gone.
there is ONE sweet spot ...
Re: Dead!!! SCH-A670
see my previous posts
I had 4 (FOUR) A670s do this
I think it was related to changing the OPEN screen to a different picture, so I'm not so sure it was a hardware issue (VRAM), as opposed to some software bug related to the VRAM (i.e. - they really can fix it when they get it back)
The stores could not fix it, and I went thru four A670s. The fifthe time I said just give me a f***ing A650 - ...
general voicemail question
anybody know why occasionally i get a voicemail that i left at someone else's phone, back at mine as an incoming voicemail (weird picking up a voicemail and hearing yourself from 4 weeks ago).
???
Re: Charging habits
How many of you think you will still have the same phone after two years ????
Re: Charging habits
Well, I don't know.
My last phone was ancient, and I charged the Li-ion battery every night, all night.
That battery lasted 7 years.
?!?
I'm not sure I understand, if it knows that it is charged and can turn on the green LED, why doesn't it just stop charging ???
Re: Headset for Samsung SCH-a670
If it is important to you, make sure it has a button that will launch the Voice Kit
Re: External Display Options
hold the rocker switch on the side for two seconds
outgoing email recipient bug
When I send a text email from the phone, it correctly sends it to the right address, but in the log it lists it as going to someone else from the phonebook.
I can't see the pattern of how it picks the wrong person.
Anyone else see this ???
Re: what's going on here
i can't find it on their web site.
it is the cable and software to allow your phone to act as a modem for your laptop. it came with a phonebook manager.
there are probaby other ways to do it if you had the cable.
software and cable were about $35
Re: what's going on here
get the phonebook manager
Re: what's going on here
tell him to call the Framingham MA service center, and ask about the crazy customer .........
Re: what's going on here
a) I charged it till the green light came on
b) LOL - GIT now credit. New story. You have (at least this was the story they gave me) download the apps to the new phone first, then they will credit you. I guess they are afraid you won't reup them.
LOL, anyway the credit didn't show up, and I spent 30 minutes arguing with some pinhead on the phone before I figured out her problem was that she didn't ...
