I recently picked up an enV3 phone, and have found that (unlike my old razr) I can not edit the text from a picture message I wish to forward. It only says "Original Slide" under Attachment. A friend of mine has the same phone, and his allows this. I called Verizon tech support, and he wasn't sure about that function, but thinks that I might have a newer version. My buddy's phone has SW version VX920V05, mine is VX920V06. If this is the problem, is there a way I can upload the older version? The tech guy says no, but I know there are always ways around things on phones. If not, does anyone know if the Alias2 does this? It's still within 30 days if I wish to exchange.
Is there anyway to keep the text messages on the screen all the time? When i get a text and respond they dont stay on the screen.My old lg phones always stayed on the screen. And if you are texting 2 or more people at the same time and they send you a text in the middle of what you are typing it automatically sends what you are texting to the drafts folder. Is it suppose to do this?
I have the EnV3 and sometimes the battery does not charge. After having the phone plugged in all night the phone still has the flashing charging icon. The phone has recently been replaced so I am guessing it is either a battery or the charger. Is there an easy fix for this or should I just get a new battery and charger?
Should I get an LG Env3 or LG Env Touch? I've tried both phones out in the store, but can't decide. It seems like the Touch is a better phone, but large for carrying in a pocket. I've read on forums, that is has a terrible battery life. The LG Env3 has a great batter life, and I like the number dialing pad. Supposedly both phones have bugs in them, that haven't been resolved.
While using the ENV3, at times it will shut it off by itself. I could be in the middle of a text message or just having the phone sitting on the couch next to me, but the next thing I know, the phone powers itself off. Does anyone else have this trouble??
Is there a way to use Bitpim with an Env3 and use the features on the far left side of the bitpim program, like Call Lists, SMS, Ringtones, Calender etc?I set Bitpim up to recognize my phone as an Env2 as I found in a thread related to ringtone transfers.
is this the only way to use the speaker phone have the phone flipped open?Kind of a drag really seems like a little bit of a deficiency in the user interface...
I would like to know if there is software or a way to dump the firmware of my LG CX9200 (VX9200). It would like to save it on my pc then flashit back in my other CX9200.It screw up my 1st one when I went in the ##lgservicemenu and played with the COLOR VARIATION -LG setting.I can't undo the changes I made, my display in some menu is screwed up
My 6 month old enV3 suddenly began deleting saved notes from the notepad.Verizon claims it's not a known issue and issued me a replacement. My hunch is that there's a limited amount of space and I had too many notes but I don't know. I don't even know if there's a way to measure the space my notes take up (without counting characters!)I LOVE this feature on my phone and won't trust the new one until I figure out a little more about what happened.
Ok, bitpim works and all, but i can't find any of the res files that create a theme. There are .vis files, but i have no programs that are capable of opening them, let alone editing them.
Can anyone give me a way to forward texts to email so they can be printed off. I called Verizon and was told there was no way. I can get some of them to randomly forward but most of them result in this msg: Unable to forward enhanced text to email.Has anyone used the "treasuremytext" website?I've got about 55 texts I need to get printed off for possible use in court:/
Updated my env3 last night to VX920V06 as well as my fiance's and now our ringtones are listed backwards. Instead of going from A to Z they go Z to A. Not a huge deal but just annoying when you are so used to it the other way.Oh and I should add this happened after I added a ringtone using bitpim. So maybe it is a bitpim related issue not the update. Or a little of both.
I recently flashed my Env3 (VX9200) from verizon to cricket. I got the phone activated, calling and receiving texts works, but I can't send texts. The phone stalls on the "Sending..." screen and cites GENERAL PROBLEMS as the reason the text failed.Is there a setting I missed while flashing that exclusively hits text sending? Does anyone have any experience with this?
I have a Verizon LG enV3. It came with a usb data cable and my XP Pro 64bit PC does not want to recognize it. I think I need the lg-vx9200 drivers, but am unable to find them.So I pose a few questions.
1. Is the cable that came with the phone able to be used with bitpim & for charging?
2. Where can I find the drivers for the usb cable?
3. Will bitpim, and the cable drivers work with my XP pro 64 bit?
When I'm replying to a text on my Env3, It doesn't show the character count for 0/160. I did my first text over 160 characters and I received a text from Verizon saying I went over my character limit. It didn't send it in two texts and it also didn't tell me where it cut off. I had to get on my computer, Open a character counter, Retype the text to see where the 160 mark was. Is there an easier way to do this? Can I send the text in two pieces instead of retyping half the text?
DH and I just got new LG Env3 phones through Verizon.Say what you want, we both like our new phones and are pleased with many of their features.We both do indeed like the notepad except that we rapidly ran out of memory and were unable to find a setting that would store our notepad texts to our microSD cards. I have been searching for 3rd party list, text or notepad applications.I'm not adverse to paying for an application that would be used.Unfortunately, my limited knowledge has me wondering if the available applications would work. We'd also like to be able to save our notes onto our computers.The program I like the most is Listpro http://www.iliumsoft.com/site/lp/listpro.php but again with my limited knowledge, I'm not really sure it would work on our phones. Our pc's are Windows XP and Home Vista (looking forward to our next purchase which will be Windows 7). Any advice you offer would be appreciated.Is Listpro comptible with our phones and computers? Is there another similar program that would be? Free can be good, but I am willing to pay.
I am happy to report success in copying music files to my LG enV3 (VX9200)! I have now loaded 2000 music files onto a 16Gb Micro SD card and gotten the phone to properly read <title>, <artist>, <track>, <album>, and <genre> for all of these files. Unfortunately, this was only after much trial, error, pain, and suffering.Here's what I have deduced about how the enV 3 wants to see music files organized:
1. To avoid silly mistakes, do use the phone to format your Micro SD card.
2. But to save time and achieve reliable transfers, move your music onto the formatted card using a USB card reader, plugged directly into your computer. Putting the phone into USB Mass Transfer mode, or trying to use the 'Sync' routine, is slow at best and ends up in failure more times than not.
3. Music files go into the "my_music" folder on the card.
4. Within "my_music", what works well is the following directory structure: my_ music /<artist>/<album> /<track>_ <title>But you have to follow some special rules:
5. The enV 3 doesn't seem to like like spaces or special characters in directory or file names, and I think it wants only one period (the one before the .mp3 extension). Special characters include the 'usual suspects': . ^ $ | ? * + [ ] ( ) { } /
6. The enV 3 doesn't seem to like directories or file names to be longer than 32 characters
7. Finally, to have album art displayed, it wants to see the file "AlbumArt.jpg" in each <album> folder.
I may be wrong about some of the rules -- but I can report that when I followed the rules, things worked as they never had before.My guess is that other Verizon LG phones work the same way. (You'd think that Verizon or LG would document this somewhere, but NO!)
Now -- you'd better believe I wasn't going to manually edit the directories and filenames to meet the enV 3's picky requirements -- not for 2000 files!Instead, I worked with the freeware program Mp3tag (available here) and wrote an Mp3tag script (available here) to do the dirty work. Step 1 was to 'clone' my music files by copying my entire music library -- all of the mp3 files, which had been organized by iTunes -- into a new directory which I labeled 'Music_Backup'. Step 2 was to read this cloned library into Mp3tag. Step 3 was to run my Mp3tag script, which parsed/renamed/moved all the music files under a new directory on my computer (called 'Ready-For-LG-Phone') Step 4 was to copy this new directory structure onto the Micro SD card
From there I popped the card into the phone, and at long last it has become a usable music player.(The one thing I haven't figured out is how to get playlists into the phone.)To use this process, you're going to have to get familiar with Mp3tag, or come up with a way using the tagger of your choice to meet the requirements I've listed above.But I can tell you that there's light at the end of the tunnel. Best wishes and good luck!
Hi! I have a friend who just LOVES to use smileys, graphics, icons and emoticons in her text messages, and she has an LG enV3. I was wondering for any of you cell phone gurus out there, is there a way to get new graphics for this phone so that they can be used in a regular text message?
I know how to save them as pictures and send a pic/video message, but I was wondering if there was a way to send them in a normal text message, or even add them to the "add" list itself. Perhaps a way to hack the phone? I'm surprised searching Google didn't render any results, that usually works, but if any of you guys can help out on this I'd be forever grateful!
I was prompted to join the forum when searching for ideal wallpaper dimensions for the enV3; this thread served me beautifully, thanks to all involved.With that in mind, I figured you folks would be the best to ask a similar question--what are the best dimensions for a contact's profile photo? I would like to create/modify them on the PC and don't necessarily want phone-taken photos for them all, so if anyone has the golden dimensions for this, I'm all ears and all thankful.
When I've dialed or received a call on my ENV3 using my Bluetooth headset, I sometimes would like to stop using the Bluetooth & transfer the call/audio to the phone itself.I searched the ENV3 Users Guide and done a lot of Googling, but I can't seem to find the answer. The only info I've found that's even remotely related is located here pertaining to a bug fix in the v05 firmware:
"Open the flip and press keypad during a voice call à audio transfer to phone à Close the flip and try to put audio back to the Bluetooth headset by using audio to device option on the phone. The phone fails to transfer audio."It's not very clear, but from reading this I assume that you can switch back 'n forth between a Bluetooth device & the phone by opening/closing the flip? What is the "audio to device option" it's referring to?
Just got this phone yesterday, so I am still learning the ins and outs of the env3. I am a mac user and figured out how to use bluetooth to connect the phone to my macbook. I transferred pictures and music. Both worked and showed up on the phone. I did this until the battery died and plugged it in to do a full charge. After charging, the pictures I had transferred were still in the picture file, but the music did not show up in the music file. When I connected to my mac again the music file shows that the music is still on the phone, according to the computer, but the file on the phone says no music. What do I need to do? Where is the music?
my bb has started acting weird, sometimes( not always) when screen unlocked it automatically selects apps,writes messages,deletes messages,send messages etc. its like someone is logged in remotley and doing this, what is this and how can i stop it?
I'm using nokia 5800 model. In that two messages got failed while sending and stored in Outbox. I tried to delete those two messages. But the status of those two msgs has been changed to 'Deferred' and are not getting deleted. I restarted the mobile, but again its there in the Outbox. I tried PC Suite to delete those messages. But those messages are not getting listed in the PC Suite. Kindly Suggest some solution for this problem
Just recently I have had some problems sending normal text messages..The problem is when I want to send a text I go to my contacts and try to send a sms message, but instead of opening up a conversation window I get taken straight to my recieved messages... I havent had a problem replying to messages after people have texted me, its iniating the converstation thats not working.
1) When sending text messages the messages go through but some remain in the outbox. They are actually sent, and not waiting for resend. The only option when selecting them is to delete, which removes them from the conversation threads. It doesn't seem to be related to service, but to whether I am using the phone for any other purpose at the time.
2) When connected to a car BT system, shut off car, BT seems to go into a black hole. You can't reconnect, can't make a call (well, it makes a call, but you can't hear anything; can't play music, etc.). The only solution is reboot. This happens with multiple systems in different brands of auto, so not limited to one brnad.
Why does my messages icon take me to a missed calls list and not my SMS messages? To get to SMS I have to "view folders". Please tell me there is a quicker way.
hello, I just upgraded my phone to the .732. Everything went smoothly during the upgrade, ever since then I have been having trouble with receiving text messages and MMS messages. I have gone to 3 sites for free ringtones have sent the ring tones to my phone, I have not received anything. I also have setup google voice and I am not getting any text messages from people tht text my google voice number.
Everything is superb however 1 thing is annoying me and i cant seem to sort it, ive had a look round the forum and cant see this elsewhere.
When viewing "Messages" im getting Emails but its also displaying BBM messages too, the help files say check Filters but i dont even have that as an option when clicking Menu > Options. I just want Emails displayed in messages nothing else, SMS and MMS is together in another view, which is fine.
