Worst phone I have ever owned. Previous Motorola's such as the V500 were much better. This phone, well, it was the 2nd I had from O2 after having problems with the first one, the problems were also in the 2nd one, and I think they are software based.

The phone frequently locks when trying to send a picture message, and you have to take the battery out. At night, when the phone is turned off, you wake up in the morning to find the front display lit up constantly, again, battery must come off. I dont like the way the display does not show you have a text waiting if you leave it for a while. The battery life isnt great either, and I found the whole design too "slippery" to open, it was so easy to let it drop to the floor if you were not careful.

On the plus sides the camera is not bad and so are the tones, and the keyboard is a nice layout, but I picked up a new Nokia today after having this phone for a year, and I am going to smash it to bits with a hammer because I just hate it so much.

        For Clint:

        I was having the same problem with the weird text message being sent when I checked my voicemail. I stopped it by flashing the software on the phone to the newest version. It's very stable and now is much more friendly with voicemail notification. Check out motomodders.net to find out how to flash your software.

            Hi i got this phone the last week and i love it to bits. only got a 64m card with it so will b gettin a bigger 1 got it on btmob but i just put my o2 sim in and it worked. which was a bonus:)) havin lots of fun playing with it i havent experienced any prob yet so fingers x. it has a good camra and u can record long video clips by changing the setting from mms to maximum by going to videos setup. u can use mp3s as ring tones by moving the mp3 file to the phone rather than the trans then click on options ans set as ring tone.Also to send through bluetooth go to the file u want to send and go to the options button which is the middle 1 scroll down to copy selectthen go 2 bluetooth then search 4 devices.hope this helps anyonexxx from sam (uk)warrington

              This phone, allthough great is obsolete for at least 6 months. I really can't wait to see and have the new V6xx mobile. I own a Motorola V620 and a V635.
              I would appreciate any info about the next in line after the V635, if u have some (info) please share!

                I like the phone a lot... But I can't find a stereo adapter to let me use the MP3 player with my favorite headphones (they are 3.5mm).
                Any recomendations?

                  a week after I bought the v635 I had to go back to my v551 because I found out that every time I check my voice-mail, a text message is sent to the phone with an @ sign and the date and time.

                  The phone itself is very feature-full. flash for the camera, Trans removable memory, decent menu navigation, but it is a little bulky. anyone with my problem, tell me what you did to stop the text msgs.

                      How do you update the software to make it better, how do you get onto the internet and what type of videos does it accept amr,avi,wmv etc.

                          When using my bluetooth dongle to send files to the phone it starts the transfer at around 13KBps but after about 30 seconds the transfer speed goes down to about 2KBps and takes ages to transfer. Is there anyone else with this problem and does anyone know how i can solve it?

                                    ok. About the video recording time of only one minute - did some research on the net and :to all that have the same problem - the phone has the old version of software (24R). You can fix this by flashing. I didn't do it on my phone thow. I don't wana ruin the phone,I kinda like it, at least not until I find more information. So, the ones that did flash their V635 pls e-mail me. I want to know if I can do it myself or should I search for a qualified person. What programs for flashing should I better use and if I need a monsterpack or a flex? Can it be done via Bluetooth or only by USB? What programs do you reccomend for flashing? Is there a manual for flashing?

                                      I flashed with a 88r monster pack, which changed my flex and flash. Check howardforums and motomodders, read a lot before reflashing , it can kill your phone. I wouldn't do it unless your having problems.

                                        I was curious....a copule of posts referred to this phone shutting down on it's own until they flashed to 88r. Is that the flash version or flex version or what? I'm unsure of what to look for, so please let me know.
