View 4 Replies View RelatedI have had my phone for one month (curve 8520) with Virgin Mobile and managed to run up a bill of over £500. I put this on here to warn other Virgin customers to be very careful how they use their phone. There is a 25mb daily allowance for blackberry usage and a 1Gb monthly allowance for internet usage. I cannot understand what the difference is. When I contact Virgin I can check the balance of my internet usage - this never changes. Unbeknown to me I was using blackberry usage which I could not check with my provider. I had the facebook application and the ubertwitter application on the phone. These are now removed.As I understand from Virgin using any applications on my phone will mean using the blackberry usage which will not be enough and therefore I will get charged. Blackberry is marketing these phones to my age group - early 20's and Virgin are advertising it with application use.

View 7 Replies View RelatedI took out a contract with Virgin Mobile yesterday for a Blackberry Curve 8520. I chose Virgin as I have had a pay as you go mobile with them for years and wanted to keep my number with a minimum of fuss.
Have to say it has been one of the worst 'out of the box experiences' I've had with any technology recently.
Whilst Virgin's systems say the phone is registered, the Blackberry site say it is not and having held on to Virgin's customer support line for ten minutes or so listening to the Scissor Sisters (aaarghhh!!) I was told that I would need to speak to a Blackberry specialist who would call back with 72 HOURS!?
I've Googled this problem and it shows up on a number of non-Blackberry / Virgin forums. If anyone can put me in touch with someone who can get me up and running I would be grateful. Putting a phone out of action for 72 hours (not sure how the weekend will affect this) is not on.
I was wondering, is there anyway to update the firmware on the Rumor Touch for Virgin Mobile? I sent a email to them, and they said to go to the LG website and it should pop up to update the phone...but all that came up was for tv's and stuff. Nothing cell related.I noticed they took the update firmware option off the VM version, verses the sprint version

View 8 Replies View RelatedI am hoping to get some help with a problem I am having with my Virgin Mobile LG Rumor 2.I have found a great website that will allow me to download programs directly to my phone that you cant get on Virgin Mobile's store (Go to http://www.getjar.com)Now, I have down loaded various programs for MSN and Facebook chatting, RSS Programs, however, it seems virgin mobile has restricted 3rd party access to the internet. The programs install fine, they run but as soon as they ask for access to the internet....the program comes to an abrupt halt.
I have heard that giving access through Bitpim is possible, however, bitpim does not fully support the Rumor 2 (see it as CDMA Other). Is there anyway to let 3rd party programs access to the internet on the LG Rumor 2? Is there any "secret access" to the phone that would allow me to change some type od settings?I like the Rumor 2 but am pulling my hair out trying to figure a way to let the programs access the net.
is it possible to download stuff on getjar for virgin mobile rumor 2?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI just bought an LG Flare from Virgin Mobile, and I have the $25 month plan with unlimited text + web. My goal is to have custom ringtones in the phone.Here's what I've done so far:I went to www.ventones.com and created a free ringtone, and had them send it as a text to my phone, but that text never came.Ventones also gave me a weblink I could point my phone to. So I did that, but upon getting there my phone says "HTTP Error 406: Not Accepted".Now this got me thinking that maybe MP3 files were not supported. But it says on the box that you can have "real music ringtones" (although any format specification is carefully avoided), so maybe I can have music files, just not as plain downloads (must go straight to system ringtone folder).Then I downloaded BitPim. I don't have USB data cable for this yet, but I'm thinking of getting a $3 one from eBay. Meanwhile, I tried connecting it via bluetooth. Now, reports say that the LG Flare was manufactured with built in support for a number of Bluetooth Profiles, including SPP. However, my LG Flare has only HSP and HFP (with only HFP being recognized in Windows, and both HSP and HFP being recognized under Ubuntu).
So naturally I'm thinking that Virgin Mobile has somehow locked down the Bluetooth. While my primary goal is to get custom ringtones, this restriction intrigues me, and I'll be glad if anyone could help me either way. Because the bluetooth is locked down, it is also possible that the data cable won't help any. What I'm looking for are some unlocking mechanisms which can free this restriction. The phone has 8mb of memory! And I want to use it.
I was wondering if I'm able to update my virgin mobile to the sprint final OS instead of the .601.. The .601 takes so long to load and everytime I turn my phone off and back on %5 of the battery disappears... Either it's my battery or the phone. But I just want to know if I could load the sprint OS instead of Virgin mobile. I just got my phone and it came with .601 but me not liking it.

Although the $300 are a bit of a pain I'm willing to pay it for a cheaper price service. I would greatly appreciate comments from current 8530 and VM users.
View 10 Replies View Relatedlooking into switching from Verizon to VMUSA. I have the tour and really would like the wifi and trackpad instead of the ball. I already own the tether application and was wondering if tethering would work on this carrier?
I read on one of the FAQs on the 8530 on the site that someone said they blocked tethering applications. I was just wondering how they can block a download or if that is even possible.
If anyone has a VM 8530 that is tethering, let me know! If i can't tether, then I dont know if im gonna spend the 300 on the phone.
Title speaks for its self. They just posted on there wall they will be offering it. No details as to when/price.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI am trying to set up my outbound mail on Nolia Messaging with my mail provider, Virgin. I have found that when I synch the mailbox, the previoulsy read mail disappears. Virgin have recommended that the email address is prefixed with Recent: e.g recent:username@virgin.net. The problem with this is that the Virgin SMTP server does not recognise the email address when Recent is added and the outbound emails are not sent. I have tried using the T-Mobile SMTP server settings using the Nokia messaging portall by adding smtp.t-email.co.uk but this is not accepted when adding it into the server details. Anybody got any ideas - I am going crazy and being bounced between Nokia, T-Mobile and Virgin.
