Wish other Carriers offered this phone

I had this phone for about 2 days and loved it!

However, the T-Mobile coverage around my office (ZIP Code 84097) was pathetic; their Signal Strength map appears to be overly optimistic. Ended up switching to Verizion which doesn’t offer / support this phone (the phone is GSM and Verizon is CDMA).

I was originally with AT&T but after 3 years both my wife’s phone and my phone died within a week of each other. Buying unlocked replacement phone on eBay would have been $300-$400 (which we did not budgeted for in 2007) and getting phone via renewing a contract w/ AT&T would have been $100-$200 (also not budgeted for in 2007). Thus the carrier switch. Perhaps we will return to AT&T in 2+ years (when our Verizion phone...

Has anyone used this phone with Cellular One?

I am looking to buy this phone to use on cellular one, I have found some on ebay that are unlocked and I called cellular one to check and see if it will work but that can only say that they can not guarantee anything. If anyone has any help for me i would appreciate it.

New to RIZR. Need info.

Just picked up a RIZR from T_mobile on Saturday. Previously have always been a Samsung Sprint user.

Questions:

- I want a big clock and date display on my screen. I can only get the little clock to display. Is there something I need to download.

- How do I set alerts. For instance, when a new VM or TM or a missed call, I want the phone to alert me periodically.

- I want the Voice recognition dialing to be activated when I open the slider. Is this possible?

Voicemail and Text Message Icon

i recently purchased an unlocked version of the Rizr and have been using it with my TMobile service. Each time I call my voicemail or receive a voicemail I get a text message with a couple of symbols. I can live with getting a text message each time I receive a voicemail but its pretty annoying to get one each time i check my voicemail. I called tmobile and they turned off some feature but now when i get a voicemail i dont receive any type of notification. anyone having the same issues and found a solution yet? can i have tmobile load their software onto my phone?

New to Moto..few questions

So I just left Verizon and moved to TMobile with a RIZR Z3, so far I really like the phone...there are a few things I wonder if I can change or I am stuck with...
1. Is it possible for the phone to be ANSWERED when I slide it up? It seems logical to me that sliding it up would answer the phone but it doesn't seem to be an option.

2. When I have custom ringtones for people in my phonebook it applys it to not only the phone call but to text messages, is it possible to have a separate ring tone for texts?

Think thats all...any help would be appreciated!
Thanks in advance

RIZR Z3 Synch Issues

So, I've been beating my head on the wall all night and haven't been able to figure out how to get my Z3 sync'ed with my Outlook. T-Mobile support wasn't any help and Motorola support is closed right now. Oh, I'm trying to use the Motorola Phone Tools software and EVERYTHING is updated..

If anyone has gotten this to work on theirs, please let me know.

And Celph, don't bother replying because I'm already aware your phone turns off for no reason and I don't care. I want an answer to the issue I posted.

Is my RIZR Z3 Defective?

I just received my new Motorola RIZR Z3 (ordered online, unlocked). It's beautiful and works fine. However, when the slider is closed, there is a minor left-to-right wiggle or looseness of the slider portion, especially at the bottom end. I have no way of knowing if this is normal. Does anyone who has this phone notice the same thing, or should the slider have no lateral movement whatsoever? Please let me know ASAP, as I only have a few days left to return it if it is indeed defective. Thanks

Camera problem

Just got my z3 and started to learn about it. I have noticed the pic I took is kind of blurred no matter how steady my hand is. I even set the phone on a table for auto-timed capture (as to minimize hand movement). However it still comes out a little blur. Do other owners have the same problem? Any way to fix it?

VERY odd and confusing!

Our Display signs indicate there are differences between the Blue Rizr and the Rose Rizr.

Blue: Infrared Transfer
Rose: No Infrared Transfer

Blue: TTY/TTD compatible
Rose: No TTY/TTD compatibility

Blue: Changable Faceplates
Rose: Nope

Something is very wrong here. Someone care to enlighten me? Especially an R-Solutions SCKiosk representative?

LINT!

Does anyone else seem to have the problem with lint under the screen or is it just me? 👿 Has anyone had this problem and fixed it? If so, how did you fix it?
