Okay guys, here is the situation. Those who frequent here may already know that I am a long time Motorola user and have owned the v8 in two incarnations: the T-Mobile version and at present the luxury edition. I would like to know if someone can address the external key situation. I just bought my girlfriend the same phone and hers is slightly different in that the keys are more rounded tapering off from the center, and the phone has a fatter rubber stopper on the hinge slope so the phone does not open as far as mine. But the problem with her is that her external keys do not do anything other than control the music player. She cannot do anything else. I always found it strange why I could not view my missed calls on the external screen, with hers, her external screen shows no info. When she gets a missed call it simply indicates there is a missed call and she must press the outside left soft key to acknowledge this which makes the missed call indication disappear from the external screen. When she gets a text, it does the same, only this time it is "message". I noticed the software version were different in our phones.

@Stuart
Unless I'm wrong Jacks' problem would be classified under 'water damage' which is not covered by the warranty.

If your V8 is beyond repair and I assume your phone is within warranty period, did you manage to claim a new unit or warranty void? It's interesting to know under this condition how Motorola Service Centre handle this issue.
I certainly hope that you've got this sorted out by now.

There are certain instances when condensation takes place. Taking a shower while having your phone inside the showering room is one, also having your phone in a pouch for long without letting breathe (taking it out of the pouch for some air) is another. Sweaty hands do some damage too. Also, for women, handbags are culprits.
Hope this helps.

Has anyone heard about condensation inside the screen before? I brought in my V8 to carphone warehouse, and my phone has never ever touch a drop of liquid. Condensation was their excuse for beyond repair.

I have say that I must be one of those lucky people as I have never ever experienced any problems that some users here have experienced. Hope this comment doesn't jinx it for me.
I've ever had an issue (not a technical problem at least) with the short battery standby time which has since been addressed with the BX81 pack. Honestly, this phone serves me very well and no complaints from me.

Anonymous, 03 Jul 2008Does the phone hang alot and the blank screen does happen t... moreNo, I don't agree that this phone hangs alot. In fact, since buying it about 6 months now, I'm happy with the way V8 has been performing. This is the first time I'm using Linux OS (V8 is running on Linux) and now I found that I actually love it. Some said it's bad, but for me it's good. Screen blackout is not an issue and I've encountered only twice. Now my V8 operates as expected and normal - no issues at all. Guys encountered problems maybe they got a lousy unit, which happens to all phone manufacturers too.

Shane Winterman, 01 Jul 2008hello, is anyone getting like when you hang up a call somet... moreShane,
I've encountered similar happenings about 2 times in the last 6 months. Once, the screen just blacked out and the other time the screen slowly dimmed and blacked out. As far as I could remember, that time which the screen just blacked out was during my phone conversation using my bluetooth and I flipped open the phone couple of times at a fast rate (my mind was focusing on the conversation but my hand was moving / meddling)and I noticed the screen was on and in split seconds blacked out. Sometimes I suspect the ribbon problem but I'm still not sure until today. Other than that, my V8 has been functioning very well so far and since then this problem didn't surface anymore
Like EMS06 suggested, send in for a check.
