Flip sound for Razr V3

Kweeg — Fri, 16 May 2008 22:41:34 GMT

No SEEM edits for that one. Opening the phone doesn't trigger audio. In
any case, after the first 20 calls I think you'd tire of it.
For the most complete list of SEEM edits for the v3 available see:

Yea;

I know the feeling. The best description I've heard for MPT is "flaky."
It mostly works. And the support posts I've read, more often than
not, can be somewhat... cryptic.

That's why I started out by writing: "without going into what I think
happened..."

g'luck and let us know!

OK, I really don't know more than the above.

Take a look at Howard Forums www.howardforums.com to see if there's any

The carriers dictate what goes in the manual. Sometimes better manuals
can be found online. If you go to
http://www.motorola.com.hk/eng/motomobile/v/razrcolor/ and click User
Manual you will get the full generic v3 manual as Motorola wrote it.
Note that you will be on the Hong Kong site but the manual is in
English.

The red spot will remain red and any remaining warranty will likely not
be honored. However it is not a sensor that shuts off the phone and is
unrelated to why your phone is working again. It is simply a moisture
indicator. There are others inside the phone too.

*V195 transfering contacts.

Kathy — Wed, 07 May 2008 14:17:18 GMT

Hello there:

I'm getting a Motorola V195 (T-Mobile prepaid) which has Bluetooth
connectivity.
I am wondering what would be the best way (program?) to transfer from my
computer
my contacts from Outolook to my phone?

Thank you in advance for your help.

Kathy

You should have no trouble reading m3u files on the Z9.

Phone created playlists are some proprietary nonsense or other, I'm sure.
I never use them.

I'm glad it worked, you can test by calling your cell from a phone
that's not in your contacts, you should hear a ring back maybe 4 times
and then it should go to voice mail. Then call again from a phone that
IS in your contacts, it should ring and you can talk to yourself but
people will wonder about you.

It pays to poke around, one thing I've found about almost every phone
on almost every carrier, the manual provided is almost worthless.

The noise cancellation alone would have been worth it. 3G (better
reception, as well as faster performance), better battery life,
substantially better camera, other goodies.

The form-factor isn't bad either.
