need help glyde vs. dare (texting)

i am deciding between these two phones. i am a huge texter and am currently using the ocean from virgin/helio. I love all touch phones like the iphone but is texting on the dare so much harder than a standard qwerty keyboard. then there is the glyde where is has touch and a physical keyboard but i heard its glitchy and the touch sometimes doesnt work and gets annoying. so please help me in this decision. glyde or dare (ps: dont mention the voyager because it is just not for me)

Ringtones!!

I see many people talking about a ringtones app, etc... Well. Let's think about it for 5 seconds folks.
In this phone you have the HTML web browser. Simply go to funformobile.com and sign-in, search, preview (yes, the sound will usually preview), and then send it to your phone, right from your phone.
I did it last night after seeing some of the "How do I get ringtones" and "I want a ringtones app" threads, and thinking there must be a better way.
Enjoy!! 😁

Ringtones Now Work at VZW

I just checked to see if the ringtones app was working yet and it is!
Just go to Media Center, Music and Tones, and the Get Ringtones.
The app is called VZW Tones Deluxe and works VERY well. Lets you preview the call back tones and ring tones prior to purchase.
Great for folks that just want to purchase a few nice tones without all the hacking and such.

THANKS

Great Review...and I appreciate that unlike most other reviewers you didn't compare every feature to the Iphone. This was a LG DARE review pure and simple...THANKS. 😁

RELAX people

Seriously whoever is all full of hate over a PHONE need to get a life.
Here's what it is. For those who like it...great. I love mine. For those that don't like it...novel idea here...GO FIND A PHONE YOU LIKE!!
I know many of those that insist on smashing any phone or product will never be happy, even though they say they are happy with what they now have or will soon have. If you WERE happy, you wouldn't be researching other phones.
Just a thought.
Seriously people. It's a good phone. Scratch that, a great phone.
Did you all forget that it was only 5 years ago we first saw a color screen on a phone. Ingrateful people take these awesome toys for granted.
Cheers to my fellow scoopers

Loading mp3's onto the LG Dare, NEED HELP!!

My friend just got his LG dare and we loaded some MP3 on the micro SD card, in the my music folder.

The phone recognized the mp3s, but when he tried to play them, a red X would show up and the phone would not play the music. Does anyone have a fix for this? Or do you have to use the rhapsody program to download music?

If anyone has any help, please reply, thanx!

some questions

Can this be tethered to a laptop for use as a modem?

does this sync with outlook (contacts)?

has anyone set up the e mail client? I don't expect it to be as robust as the Blackberry but how does it compare?

Move music to phone? Need Vista USB drivers?

I have the phone, and I cannot get it to sync with Windows Media Player on a Vista computer. Verizon Techies couldn't help, and they called LG who said they couldn't help either, and told me I should try and buy the drivers from a third party.

They said the drivers only support Windows XP, eventhough Vista is 18 months old.

I do not want a subscription service like Rhapsody.

Any ideas?

texting alerts

Not sure if it's a defect with my phone, or just a software issue, however I've noticed that when the phone is dormant, or locked when txt messsages come through I don't always receive my alert sound. I've fiddled around with various settings, and nothing has seemed to make a difference.

so anyone else experiencing this problem? or could I just have a small defect?

TV

Hi there new to the forum. I'm probably going to get this phone on Friday. I see that the TV service is available for the dare. Is there an update you can do or does anyone think that Verizon might make an update later on? Thanks for your time.

Problem with the screen not shutting off.

Whenever I lock the phone the screen shuts off. But any other time, the screen dims but it stays lit. I have to re-lock the phone in order to shut-off the screen. Is there a setting in the phone to fix that issue?

I appreciate the help... Thanks

locking the phone

Is there a way to lock the phone, not just the keypad, using a shortcut? I've been trying to find something, and going through the steps to lock it all of the time is a little cumbersome. thanks.

Using Rhapsody on the Dare with Vista

Anyone having trouble loading music from Rhapsody onto the phone using Windows Vista? I have about 200 songs I want to put on the Dare, and Rhapsody keeps shutting down with an error in the middle of syncing. It randomly chooses which songs to sync. Not sure if this is a memory issue - I have an 8gb card, or a vista issue.
