Motorola :: Verizon Update Killed E815
Mar 20, 2010
I used the Verizon update (*228) today on my E815 done this many times prior with no trouble. After the phone rebooted, I tried making a call.Signal bars all went away and the call would not connect.I then tried power-cycling the phone; same problem.Tried enabling Test Mode, forcing CDMA mode, still won't place calls.I'm limping along on my old LG VX4600 good thing I kept it. Is there anything I can do to fix my E815 (change firmware/PRL manually)?

Looks like now we have someone to blame, namely Verizon.

I bought an iphone 14 months ago. Sunday I did the required update and it killed the keyboard function entirely. Isn't it lovely that Apple cannot fix or replace the unit that their own software destroyed at no cost to me ($200 plus tax to get a replacement). I have two more years to pay on my contract and I don't understand how a company this large can leave their customers (ME!) high and dry like this. I could understand had I damaged the phone by being careless or if the product was something cheap, but I took care of this expensive product and Apple should be accountable when their upgrades destroy a persons property.

Is there a tool which can change the ESN via software on an E815? I am replacing mine and I have some working main boards and lots of parts. I want to set the ESN to the same as the original one so I can swap boards at will without going to Verizon. My phones get rough service and 815s are still pretty good and really easy to work on once properly flashed and seemd, except when they wear out or otherwise break.

I am unable to charge my E815 (supposedly charge port bad). They say if I get a new battery, it has to be charged first, so that's no good. How about using a usb cable or is that thru the same port and wouldn't work either?

I have an E815 that if set on Vibrate or Silent, when the charger is plugged in, it will change to LOUD. Is there a way to have it retain whatever ring style it is set at when the charger is plugged in?

Several flashing attempts failed. Now i'm stuck in the "bootloader usb init" screen.(but thats another problem i'm trying to get help with in another thread.)I started with a fully charged good battery, but after hours of trying to get this thing back into verizon by flashing it with VRZ_E815_01.1E.0R_PRIii09574_MONSTER_01.shx , i believe i'm outa juice, well the battery is.So I plugged it in the charger, it's still in the bootloader mode and on! Now.It's been about 4 hrs, but the phone still turns off after displaying 'hello moto' for 1 second(when charger is unplugged), which make it impossible to try fixing the flashing problem.
QUESTION:
How do i know that/if the battery is charging while in the bootloader state?.. or is this phone turning it self off, not a battery problem at all, but has something to do with the failed flashing... a dead phone?

I have a Motorola E815 CDMA phone that was originally a Verizon postpaid (not mine) which my son then used for a while as a PagePlus prepay. It currently has no service, and I'd like to do a Master Reset but I never knew the security code. I thought that when it was activated on PagePlus the security code would revert to 0000 or 1111 but it didn't.Before I invest in a data cable, I would like to know if I can get this using BitPim.

I have had my DX2 for roughly three weeks, and for the most part, aside from some testing issues, it has been pretty good.With all of the information I've been reading, the OTA rollout of Gingerbread came out to the X1, but not the 2.That said, when are the updates going to come out for the 2? the fact that the companies are taking care of the earlier phone models, showing reward for loyalty, but the individuals who upgraded to the newest hardware are stuck waiting.Does anyone know when, or if we are getting the next OS?Are we moving directly to Honeycomb?I moved to a newer phone in lieu of rooting my DROID phone, and I'm happy that I did, but I am getting a little impatient.Also, I have no exposure to MOTOBLUR.Does my phone have it? Is it something I have to download? I've heard mixed reviews, but I would like to make the determination myself.

What can I do to get my Droid X to play wav files again like it used to fresh out of the box? If there is no solution can I go back to the software I had before the update?

Airtime FREE VZW software update! Due to network changes you must dial *228 in VZW coverage area, press SEND & choose Option 1 to reprogram phone.I tried it for kicks. It won't let you on a 4G device with a SIM card. The message tells me "SIM card has activated your service and updated your phone's roaming capabilities."So I guess with the SIM we no longer have to update roaming using *228 as in the past. I am guessing Verizon sent the message by mistake.

DON'T USE MAGNETIC PHONE CASES if you want your compass to stay working.I have searched for and read thru lots of posts about people with compass problems in their Razr but no one mentions if they have or did have a phone case with a magnetic close flap.My compass had been working great and I use Night Sky and navigation apps all the time.I put on a leather flip case for more protection and suddenly my compass is all screwy and locked up!Even taking the case back off didn't help.I got the phone tester app and seen that all 3 axis were frozen so I took the magnet from the offending phone case and floated it up to and away from the phone from all directions. This kinda unfroze the compass but it's still erratic even after calibration.

I keep on going to Settings>>>About Phone>>>Software Update>>>Update Now and it keeps saying my phone is up to date when it clearly is not. PC methods such as SEUS are not working either. I feel like my phone is left out in the cold.

Ok so I bought an env2 off a guy on craigslist. I dropped my old one in a puddle but I really loved my env 2 so I bought a used one from someone on craigslist. When I went to activate it I discovered it was on revol's network, I dont live in the city hence I can get coverage on revol. Still says verizon all over it when you turn it on and off. I am not very savvy with cell phones but I am with a computer. I took it to the verizon store and they tried to put new firmware on it but it didnt work. I have a tough time beleiving that it can go from verizons network to revols but not back, if anyone has a way that I can flash the phone back to verizon.

This is for my father-in-law's phone. He has just basic service, so no text or data plan. Bitpim doesn't appear to support it and I cannot find a USB driver for it. The phone does not currently have Kies installed (I don't even know if it is supported on this phone). And he can't install new applications because he has no data plan. Is he pretty much out of luck or is there some alternate way of doing this that I haven't discovered yet?

I've downloaded the same task killer onto my desire s as I had onto my hero but with the desire there are always several apps running minutes after I've killed them. I've had to configure the task killer to kill apps every 30 mins. I don't think the task killer is to blame as it works well enough on the hero but maybe android 2.2 is overriding it. The task killer is 'advanced task killer v1.9.6 build 76' by Rechild. Is this normal behaviour for android 2.2 or is the task killer app simply not coping?

Just upgraded my 6700 firmware and the email app got replaced by a new one version 1.2.19. Despite doing it via OVI Suite on the PC with a backup first, the upgrade wiped my email settings and the new email app won't allow you to enter POP/SMTP settings by hand. It tries to be clever and do it automatically from your email address. Trouble is, Nokia's servers don't know that xxx@email.com is owned by mail.com and operated on their behalf by aol.com (with AOL's particular settings). I don't mind programs trying to being clever when they get it right or give you a way to set things manually if they don't. But how, Nokia, do you persuade this new program to let you do that? It's the first email program that I have seen that appears to dumb things down so much that it won't do its job for some.

On my previous iPods and iPhone, I've always used live updating smart playlists to keep my music fresh.
By adding the simple rule to not include anything played in the last "x" number of days, any song played would disappear from the playlist. In other words, once you play it, it no longer fits the requirement for the playlist, so it drops off, creating a continuously updating, self-contained playlist. I just noticed that my iPhone 4 no longer does this. The playlists do not update until they are synced in iTunes.

So i just got a HTC One 3 days ago. My battery life has been AMAZING. But yesterday my play store updated and my google now updated. Play store is running 4.4.21. I also put the google experience launcher on there from phandroids video. I unplugged my phone last night and when i went to bed i had 80% 8 hours later i woke up and had 9%. Gsam battery monitor said Google play services?
I took off the launcher but now i am stuck with the google now up date and the play store update. I also started using google hangouts. I tried uninstalling the play store update but then google hangouts won't work. What could have caused this? The phone is plugged in charging now so i have been through a days use since this happened but i am just a little worried because that is one of the main things that i was worried about before i got the phone was battery life!

Not sure how to go about fixing this, but ALL the apps I had "moved to SD Card" are now toast.
App manager lists the entries as filenames, the icons are semitransparent generic android icons, it tries but fails to load the apps and google play says its not installed.
The data is all on the SD card so i'd like them all back, it seems the OS (when it updated) simply forgot them when it optimized my apps for lollipop.
I HAVE to move apps to the SD card cuz these phones come with next to no built in storage. What a screwup.
I manually updated google play services and restarted the phone four times. I had to uninstall a chat app and it took fifteen minutes. After that fourth restart, all my apps appear to have been reinstated.

The basic question is, can I hack this phone? What is best method in 2010?Boring Background: My wife and I both had Alltel V3m's when Verizon bought them out. Never thought of the V3m's as a "smartphone", but they work for the basics. When I physically broke mine, just purchased another "new" verizon v3m off of ebay for $75. This must be an older phone as it just uses ESN numbers, but has the newer 24.1_01.19.09.
After googling for days, searching this forum etc., all the information I can find seems old. Most start with... "if you have this software version stop, you can't do it". This locked down Verizon software is bad enough I may switch providers just to get rid of it (waiting on Android phones to mature).Can I revert this phone to sane software (having trouble believing I can't)? How would you do this in 2010?

I did the software update on Motorola software update, and the phone now has a verizon logo when it powers up, but when I go to activate the phone, *228, it is alltel on the line. What else do i need to make this phone work? I've tried to flash in the verizon monster with rsd lite,"VRZ_P3_NN_C_07.7A.00I_01.05.00R_MONSTER_01.ra r", but the flash always fails.

I recently activated a refurbished motorola q (until iPhone 5 comes out) and I am having an issue in which texts from other carriers i.e AT&T, sprint, only show the first character of the text message. I am however able to receive full texts messages from verizon wireless subscribers. I am able to send text messages with out any problem to all parties. I contacted both verizon and motorola technical support and they basically pointed fingers at each other. Has any one else had this issue or know of a fix?

I am from Canada and purchased a USA Verizon Xoom 3G. Bell and Telus seem to run on the exact same network, but I am unable to get things up and running with them as the Xoom just cant "activate". The neetwork providers are asking if there is a way to change the APN setting in the Xoom as it appears to be searching for the Verizon Network.How can you do this as my Xoom only has a Home/Automatic setting under Mobile. There does not appear to be any manual setting

I have used the search feature and been unable to find any information on this so if it is posted elsewhere I apologize. I have a Verizon Razr V3m that I would like to flash to Metro PCS. I am completely new to this process and need very easy to follow directions on how to do this. I do have slightly better than average computer skills so have a good understanding of how to do things.
Basically I need to know what program is best to download to do this, what the steps are to complete the process and what I should know before I start, ie: how to back up files from the phone that I am flashing, which files to back up, etc.

Would it be possible to flash my A455 Prepaid mobile from Telus to the Verizon firmware, or would the fact that it's prepaid mess up the flashing?I've been reading threads on people flashing their A455 to the Verizon firmware from Koodo Mobile, but noone ever mentions whether they have a prepaid phone or not.Would flashing a prepaid phone mess up the phone?
