Yeah those are nice phones, friend has one.. I just got a Motorola V276, not much bigger than that one hehe
The keys are backlit with blue, think there's a light sensor though, they only come on when it's not very light..

Oooh I like the Razor.
I'll take mine in black though please. $200 + 2yr agreement though, ouch I'll pass, no matter how much I like AC/DC. :P
I did see $200 rebate through Tiger Direct, but you had to pay your bill on time for 6 months before you can send in for it.

flip screens and i never work well together.
Once I sat on one... another time I got thrown in the pool (With phone in pocket) ... also i once got angry at my phone and threw it at the wall... and last but not least... i dropped my phone out the car window....
But the good thing I just told cingular that the phone came decetive and warranty covered it... just shows you how stupid they are...

That would technically be considered "cracking" not "hacking" hehe..

picked it up on tues. honestly i was disappointed with all the commercialism in the stock UI, but the phone is real sexy once its been unlocked and modded/hacked/cracked. gets lots of attention also.
i spent a lot of time searching + gathering required programs, if someone needs one i can probably send you a .rar/.exe of it and save you the time. just msn me.
playa what were the SEEM edits for the text and date removals?
cost me $260 without a plan. then i had someone else unlock it becuase i hadnt ever "hacked" a cellphone, so that cost $20. $280 in all.

hey. i didnt do any of the seem edits (havent fully researched it yet and dont understand everything about it. to remove those texts, i used p2kman and motoskin and followed an online tutorial.
btw, the black razr = hawt!

Okay, I just got the Motorola V180, er. cause not only was it free, but it also has a $75 rebate, so I end up making $150 back on my 2-phone shared plan.
Anyway, my Canon camera USB cable works on this phone. I got ahold of the USB driver, so now I could use it as a USB modem on my laptop if I wanted to. But I really want to be able to upload/download stuff from my phone. I've read I need the Motorola Tools software... so anyone know where I can get it?

on no, not the v180. anything but that dreaded phone...
this is the same phone that tmobile gave me. it worked for about 2 months, then the screen went haywire. they replaced it... replacement lasted about a week and did the same thing. third replacement didnt even last 24 hrs@!
i took it back and requested a different model. the employee there had no problem doing that and told me that the v180 had a malfunction and he had several ppl come in each day with the same problem.
skip ahead a few months and i find out that my dad got this phone. i warned him and sure enough, he has already had the same problems with it.
i only hope they have fixed this problem in their later phones...
