Motorola A840

I heard today from a Verizon rep. that this phone is supposed to be available in their business center in 10 days on 🙂 04/25/05.

I want this phone sooooooo badly! It is soo hott. Im assuming it should work with verizon due to the "verizon" tag on the face of the phone...does that mean anything guys? 😎

When will this be available?

I don't know how he got it, but he has it and it's absolutely amazing. He's using it through T-Mobile service though...I hope the v710 is like this phone.

Can this phone be used with SprintPCS? verizon and sprint both use CDMA technology, I've seen a lot of info on unlocking GSM phones but what about the CDMA side? Sprint has started offering an international phone ( Samsung ) but this one seems to be a better option.

i have a A840(it is named A860) and was interested in upgrading to the latest firmware. Do you have the Flash file of A840,i need it to open some function,like java gprs etc.,please send me to zyxing@21cn.com,thank you!!!

Would this phone also work on the KDDI/au CDMA network in Japan?

I would use it with the prepaid system they have. Would this require an "unlocked" phone? I not is there a different prepaid, GSM or CDMA, system on which this phone would work. I have been recently told that NTT DoCoMo will be discontinuing their prepaid service.

Thanks.

Hello,

Well i was at the att wireless store today and i picked up the v600 pamplet thing or whatever anyway i read the back and it SAID oPERATES ON gSM/gPRS 850/1900(NorthAmerica) and 900/1800 (Global) Frequencies so we might be in luck.

i see that this phone will use SD cards.
will it be able to use a 1GB Secure Digital Card or any one of that data size that will fit in the phone?

I wanted to buy the v710 but it is only cdma if i wait for the a840 to come out it is cdma and gsm 900/1800 does this mean it takes sim cards.

I just saw the phone on ebay. The guy ask for $549.00. The phone is brand new. 😁 🤣

Do you think is worth it for $600?

I'm sorry if this is slightly off topic, but given the amount of stupid posts in this forum I felt that this post would provide the basis for an intellectual discussion regarding newer phones coming out which share similar features.

I am in love with the v710, however it doesn't sport one feature which is something I and my company are now looking at: CDMA and GSM combined compatability within the same phone.

There is a new Samsung A790 which now supports this feature, yet I've heard mixed reviews. Verizon has this phone now available through their corporate plans. We are looking at it, yet I'm not sure I really want anything other than a Motorola (or a Nokia)....for that matter...

Regardless, the Motorola A840 is also listed on pho...

Not even the LG6100 is on it

Will AT&T offer this phone becasue it says it suports GSM and will the camera on this phone be better than the V710 and also what is the difference between the V710 and the A840

I was driving by a cell phone store today in Sheepshead bay section of Brooklyn, on Gravesend neck road across from the Bally's, and lo and behold there is a huge a840 phone on the stores awning. Does this mean iminent release. And for those of you that are going to question as to whether I got confused between the 710 and the 840, this huge phone mockup had the globe on the front screen which the 840 has but the 710 does not.
Cheers

Folks,

The verizon's North America Neighborhood plan in Mexico is limited only in Mexican regions served by CDMA's IUSACELL cell company.

With the new A840 dual CDMA/GSM phone, the coverage in Mexico under this plan will be available also on GSM?

Most of the Mexican territory is covered by GSM, and it will be more convenient for Verizon Roamers in Mexico.

If anyone knows something, please let me know

Thanks

Does anyone know if this phone will work with the GSM America that is offered by ATT wireless? I have verizon right now, and there is no service where i work, but there is full scale att gsm. i was thinking to get the new phone from verizon and it will pick up GSM coverage in Pennsylvania
