Frozen Screen after calls?
I am at a loss. I have had a Iphone 3g for a while now. I have traded it in for a replacement now three times. What seems to happen is whenever I get a call (although not EVERY time, just a decent amount) after the call is over I go to hang up and the screen is black and will not come back. Despite my best efforts it takes powering the unit down and back on to get ...
Re: DO YOU HAVE HELIO?
i have had helio near from the start. No bad experiences really, they have always been really nice. but the coverage is lacking in my area and the battery life on the phone i have leaves me unimpressed
Phone Replacement?
I currently have the Drift, and I have insurance. My phone is not working very well and I suspect it will call it quits here soon. I have had it long enough but see that the Drift is no longer a phone they carry. If I have to use the insurance on the phone how will that be handled. Is there a specific replacement phone I will be issued, and I given the amount the phone was worth toward ...
Re: No charm or strap hole for drift!!??
You could use something that you can put the Drift into that has a cord on it. They make a sock like...thing that serves that purpose. Or I guess use something (read: duct tape) to affix your charm/strap to it... Why is the presence or lack there of of a charm...loop... a required feature on a phone I wonder however. I can see it being neat but not a make or brake feature. Then again, thats just me.
New Convert
As soon as Cingular sends me my last bill I will be switching over to Helio (a choice I have been looking forward since its launch) I am very excited to get the Ocean. but I am asking for anyones view on the phone before I get it. Honest opinions please, I just want to know if owners think its a good idea.
Thank you in advance,
Jay
Re: Is there an unlocked version?
This person is correct. CDMA cannot be unlocked. And besides the fact. Even if possible its running Helio firmware not verizons ugly red one (jk) It would be of no use to you at all anyways.
Re: Ocean vs. ENv
Is he not referring to the enV (aka:VX-9900) by verizon? In this case it is out and has been for much longer then the ocean has been.
Re: No, you shouldn't
it looks like its just the VX8600 by LG. I can't stand how much those two companies phones look alike. From a few feet its hard to tell which of the "cool phones" a person is using, but who cares anyways because they are all the same. What happened to original design?
Re: Verizon UI?
UI means User Interface.
A User interface is essentially the software on the phone that allows you to interact with the phone (think windows on a computer, windows allows you to interact with the computer. Windows is also a GUI or a Graphical User Interface.)
The complaint that is often posted is because verizon is the only carrier that has their own user interface that is standard across all their phones. No other cell phone company (well, I say that not ...
V325 shell
Does anyone know for sure what the metal in the v325 is. is it aluminum?
Re: Rollover
I use my rollover on the occasion. On average I don't use all of the minutes on my plan but every few months something comes up that makes me use my phone more then I usually do. Rollover is kinda the overdraft protection on my cell phone plan if that helps you visualize its purpose. It keeps me from incurring a 300 dollar bill every few months because something happened that kept me on the phone.
It is not a ...
Re: Question about VGA and QVGA displays
QVGA = Quarter VGA to the best of my knowledge. which is to suggest is its one 1/4 of a VGA resolution :D
Hope that helps
Re: Seriously People Help Me Out =(
As far as working at Best Buy is concerned, the pay you are looking for wouldn't be hard to pull but we are non-commission sales ... sorry.
Re: BlackJack pic
hehe, if this is their "answer" to the Q does that mean I will have to start DEVO'ing these out in mass quantity in a few months as well >.< My store finally got rid of the Q and now all I have to ship out in mass numbers are the IPODs :( sadness in my heart if Sammy thinks they have to respond at all :(
Re: Reassigned to N. Korea, waived ETF?
If that were for some reason the truth you have no business discussing it on a web forum that you are being stationed (stationed? seeing as how we have no bases there) in North Korea. If this is the truth you have no place to be discussing your orders here
Re: Will definitely get rid of my 8125 for this!
you could most certainly get rid of it in my direction :D I wouldn't turn away a 8125 if for nothing more then the wifi so I could check my email more easily on the go :D
Re: Pantech C300
is the piece on the dummy the same material as the real deal? For some reason I suspect the dummy has a plastic window. altho its not uncommon that it would have the same (glass?) window. If that is the case I can get a dummy phone for free I believe. Hmmm, I don't think I had thought about that. I will have to see.
Anyone else have any ideas by chance?
Thanks again tho, that is a wicked good idea ...
Re: Does this phone come with a charger?
I bought it from Best Buy in a cingy branded box which I can only imagine is the box they will send you and yes, it has a home charger. I have never seen a cell phone NOT come with a method of charging >.
Re: Pantech C300
I can do the repairs myself oddly, I just have the hardest time finding parts for that particular phone. It isn't my phone and I haven't been able to tinker with it but it looks like I can get access to it. I am just wondering if there is anyone who knows where I can find parts for that particular model.
And some place quoted 130 dollars to replace a LED!? thats crazy.
Pantech C300
Hey guys, is it possible to replace the glass protector on the front of the Pantech C300. I have one that has a scratch right through the middle and it isn't that its a big deal but if it was possible I would like to replace the piece.
If anyone knows is it possible firstly, and second, where would I get the piece?
Thanks in advance.
Re: Jabra 250 pin code
Every bluetooth I have ever seen comes factory with the pin 0000 but if it has been changed from that its anybodies guess.
Re: Phone Options Part 2 (Sorry it is long)
Of course you see a lot of problems with the returns of the most popular phone (which, don't let what I say make you think that I like the razr by any stretch of the imagination) The more units you have the more defective ones there are bound to be. It is the nature of being. More people the more illnesses, and so on. My qualm with the RAZR is that while 2 years ago it was a nice ...
Re: Pearl 8100
Thats what I pretty much assume. But not being a tmo customer I didn't know the loops fully. I am inquiring for a friend of mine who really really wants the pearl now but isn't out of his contract until mid december I believe. I think it may have been resolved however, I do appreciate your input.
Re: Pearl 8100
Hmm, so what you are telling me is it is prolly a better idea to just get a tmo branded one and save myself the hassle?
Re: Pearl 8100
In addition, If I am using an unlocked phone on tmos network will I be able to use all of the features of the phone. I know on cingular you often have to update the phone so that it works with SMS and the mobile web. Is that the same on tmo? if so is it possible to use all the features on an unlocked phone that you would use on a branded one?
Pearl 8100
Hey, I am looking to buy the 8100 unlocked. Is there anyone who has done so already who can recommend a website for me to do so. I would greatly appreciate it.
Re: Memory Card and USB cable?
Memory cards I believe are available at sonys website are they not? I coulda sworn they are. Otherwise I cannot locate a dealer that sells them stateside.
Re: slvr
Umb, sorry to say it man but thats a poor trade ... /;|
Re: Does it have a ???
CDMA tech = no sim card
Re: High end phone for .99 cents?
It must be like wirefly. Its prolly legit but you no doubt end up signing all sorts of third party contracts.
Re: w300 out?
As I said in an earlier post. BB has them starting today. They are retail 229.99 so a low 2yr would be expected. I will see if I can find the two year price.
Re: what division of cingular is selling this phone?
Cause I am an ex-cell sales person and current inventory person and we got a box of them in. I was curious when they hit shelves (because our corp. cingular store doesn't have them) and I looked up the street date and its 9/17 :D my store wont have them out because we dont have space yet, which is fine. I think I am buying one in the morning anyhow.
Re: what division of cingular is selling this phone?
In Best Buys tomorrow (9/17) :D
Re: is cingular getting the bb pearl?
Thats the rumor I heard. I would love to see it
W300i
Just yesterday my store got three of these in, and the street date is listed for tomorrow. I work at Best Buy and the corp. store in my town says they aren't even listed for release yet. So if you want one of these Best Buy has them scheduled out tomorrow :D
Re: HAHA CINGULAR
Yeah, I have the hardest time taking and survey seriously that ranks Nokia with Kyocera. I just can't do it lol
Re: Family Plan Question - adding additonal lines
Once the contract time is over (assuming you dont want to pay the ETF) then you have the number ported onto a new account and have that line deactivated. Pretty simple, might take a few minutes but basically simple.
Re: Unlocked GSM vs CIngular phones
They can be, you can get it done through nokia. see the 6131s forums for details
Re: Get the i730 or wait?
The 700wx is a new release of the 700w, more RAM and a few other things are the add-ons but its sprint only.
Re: Retail value of Chocolate
Honestly, I know it sucks for your friend but you should make them buy you a new one. Aside from the fact it will probably not work like it should (sounds like it isn't anyhow) you have a year of contract where you need a working phone. If something goes wrong with that one you will be told youre SOL because of the water damage. It will cause you endless frustration. I know its not the nicest solution but ...
