After yesterday's update, skype video calling now works on the triumph. It does not show in the supported devices list, but I have tested it and was able to videoconference.

View 8 Replies View RelatedIs there anyone out there that can help with this? I have only had my phone for about 40 days (10 days past Radio Shack's return policy, unfortunately), and beginning 3 or 4 days ago my phone stopped consistently charging. I would put it on the charger and it would look like it is working for a few minutes, then simply stop charging. I have tried 3 different chargers with the same results-- one with a USB connection to my computer, one in my car, and one plugged into a wall.I already exchanged this Triumph once because of serious software glitches including a keyboard that wouldn't always type. I am starting to feel like perhaps this isn't the phone for me, but it feels terrible to feel like I have been cheated $300 for a phone that doesn't want to work.
View 7 Replies View RelatedBesides us waiting for some sign of a software update to address the issues with our Motoroloa Triumph, does anyone else find it curious how difficult it is to find the accessories for the Triumph? I mean, it's impossible to find something by going to the Motorola Store for the phone. However, if you circumnavigate the site and search on all Android Phones, and find the one phone for Virgin Mobile (by carrier), then find the teeny tiny link for Accessories, one does determine there is a BT headset and also a car charger. But wait, the car charger isn't even available yet.
It's not good commentary that there isn't Motorola badged batteries and car chargers and earbuds, Micro HDMI to HDMI cables, USB charging cables available for the product from Motorola, when clearly, this stuff is available on eBay. And I've recently purchased a very good OEM Motorola Charger and USB charging cables... so the question becomes, where is Motorola's support for the phone? I propose someone feedback to Motorola that besides waiting for needed SW updates, we could use a little product support in the way of accessories.
Can i use my triumph as a tether?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have tried multiple ring tones, and the incoming calls only ring once. This is my 2nd Triumph and this one ends in software/firmware 038.
BTW, it seems like people with software/firmware 039 has more issues with their phones, such as flickering and random reboot.
I have spent number hours on the phone w/tech support. My orig phone wouldn't save my #s to reactivate. I was constantly having to reactivate via tech support to no avail. I am not able to upload photos or videos and send them via email or text msg, but they will upload to FB. I received a replacement phone yesterday. Uploaded and sent 1 photo via text and it seemed to work. Shut off phone last night and this morning when I turned it on it said I need to reactivate. I did it without having to call tech support but just tried to upload and send a photo via text and it won't do it.
View 8 Replies View RelatedIs it possible for my screen to NOT close when I am on a call? It makes doing anything involving the keypad, looking up numbers or messaes or anything else impossible because I keep having to power the screen back on etc.
Also I very religiously clean out my cache, data when it isn't going to delete important info. etc. Haven't added that many new apps. Have moved EVERYTHING I can to the SD card. Yet, my phone memory keeps going down. Is there a way to slow this? My phone that used to have tons of memory on it is now down to 30%. Tips? I know apps etc take up memory, as does there data etc. It just seems to be dropping more than it should.
I understand that Motorola said it plans to update most of its 2011 devices to version 4.1. Does this include the Triumph?

WiFi works fine, and I am able to place/receive calls and send/receive texts. Bluetooth also works. I have no other issues with the phone, it's just the 3G data. Is it defective or is there a way to fix it

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have transferred a ton of music onto a SD card however the phone is only recognizing a tiny fraction of it. Does anyone know of any reason that the Triumph isn't seeing the songs?I installed Winamp, but it must be drawing the songs the same way since it's listing the exact same songs. If I browse the files using a program like Adao File Manager, it sees them fine.

If I turn the phone off, the notification goes away for a bit, but still comes back after about an hour. I did try "Factory Data reset" under the privacy settings, but that did not make a difference.
I have been following this community since I bought my Triumph 2+ months ago. I am generally happy with the phone, although I am annoyed by the intermittent lack of responsiveness from the touchscreen and the GPS issues. I cannot believe that there are actually Motorola and VM employees who are saying that they are not aware of any issues with the phone - and they say this in the context of forums like this that are FULL of people reporting issues with the phone. I am extremely disappointed with both companies for refusing to either acknowledge that they are working on a fix (or Gingerbread upgrade) or announce that there will be no fix/upgrade. Matt, the Forums Manager, posted the following on the Droid Bionic forum yesterday:
"I know everyone is eager for updated software. We have been working diligently on a software update for DROID BIONIC and have a version in the testing stage; we expect to deliver it to users in 30 to 60 days. The update is targeting issues identified through owner feedback and we're confident it will improve device performance."
Why can't we get an answer one way or the other as to whether there will be a fix or an upgrade for the Triumph? I think a lot of us would be happy with a simple acknowledgement that it is coming, even if the timeframe is still unknown. If it has been decided that there will be no fix or upgrade, then we would like to know that. Triumph users are entitled to the same treatment as the Droid Bionic users, and we have been waiting longer.
I purchased a Motorola Triumph from the virgin mobile promotion the other day and it arrived this morning. Unfortunately, I'm enrolled in a contract with tmobile that'll last another year before I can switch over so I'l have to wait before switching over to virgin mobile's plan. So the plan is to use my prior phone for 'phone stuff' and the triumph as a temporary ipod touch. So I spent a few hours experimenting with the wi-fi and it worked fine. But it was when I plugged it into my laptop with the usb provided, that problems started to arise

View 10 Replies View RelatedI've gone through a couple phones now, but I am still having this problem with the Triumph. Periodically, when the phone goes into sleep mode, it will not come out when pressing the power button. I have to take the battery out and replace it to get it to function correctly again. After experimenting with it a bit, it seems to only occur when I have Wifi enabled. When Wifi is off the phone seems to function in and out of sleep mode correctly. Anyone else experience this and/or have a fix for it(beside keeping Wifi disabled)?
I have also experienced some of the same issues that others have addressed on this site (random rebooting, slow GPS), but my Wifi sleep mode problem gives me the biggest headache.
When I try to use a voice command application such as Google's Voice Search or Vlingo the phones microphone is disabled. Both applications run an animation that lets you know that the phone is "hearing". I receive no indication that the mic is active. However, if I plug my (Non-Mic) headphones into the Triumphs jack the voice recognition comes alive. This lasts for one command though. If I try to voice a second command I again get no response. At this point pulling the headphones out of the jack again activates the voice application for one command.
View 10 Replies View Relatedive had this phone for a couple weeks, its not as great as my droid 1 but i cant complain its a kool phone, my problem is the volume for music, i thought it was my headphones so i went out n bought some sony $79.99 headphones n they sounds amazing, but the volume is low!
ive tried all the volume boost programs but none work, my music player "player pro" has a EQ that i can raise the DB it helps but i know it can go higher, because i tried to download a program called "Volume boost" installed it does nothing but for some reason i changed it downloaded as ZIP format and when i extracted it from "androidzip" as soon as it was done the volume BLASTED my headphones it was amazing, but when im done listening to music and listen hours later or somthing its back down, so i have to keep extracting the zip, somtimes it works and somtimes it doesnt but i do DEFINATLY know that the volume can infact go up higher, program that works when wanted?
secret hidden volume setting tthru dial pad?? *#*344656444*#* something?
I've been having some problems lately with the volume output through the headphone jack when I and using the media player. I found that it is sometimes very quiet, and the only fix I have found so far is making a call (I usually just call my voicemail and hang up right away, after the call is done the music volume picks up), however this does not work all of the time.

I was just wondering if there was any way to turn off getting a notification every time I get an email.I don't want to have to turn my phone on silent every night, just in case I get a call I should answer in the morning or something. But I get woken up every night when I get my Groupon emails and stuff, and it's driving me crazy!
