Much luck finding a good "new" phone at subsidized
prices. No major carrier is 
offering any of the good versions of new motorola
phones and likely the same for 
other brands also.

Oh, missed this.

Not always and in fact they're more likely to be in
the phone memory since most 
features like photo & custom ring can only be assigned
to phone stored entries on a 
Motorola at least.

I've done it on a Cingular RAZR V3 using the USB cable
and some software from one of 
the Motorola hacking sites. Problem is even though it
was supposed to be Cingular 
firmware I get a subsidy error on power up though the
phone works fine.

Cingular/ATT will do nothing to help you in this area
unlike Verizon they don't have 
techs in the stores.

Doubtful a flash will do much to help the V3 if that's
what you have, it seems to 
simply be a flawed phone in the end.

You can use the Motorola branded Phone Tools to
transfer your phone book.

r loose contact list etc.


that should be on the SIMM which is movable to another phone.

Anyone ever flashed their RAZR phone ?

I am eligable for a free upgrade, my RAZR has been a PITA with lockups and I am 
not the only one. If I did not know better I would think MS wrote the SW >:-}

Been poking around MOTOX but very confusing. I want to fix my bug with just a 
firmware update ( if possible ) do not really want to change the flex or loose 
contact list etc.

Just got my wife a new Nokia for Mom's day and it does this from the keypad 
like live update. I think that is cool. Maybe a newer razr would be a better 
option but hate to get stuck with another dud. FWIW Cingular ( at the time ) 
replaced the phone 3 times. no improvement.
