Cellular Phone Forum / Providers / Verizon / June 2007If you have a LG VX8300, get it updated!!!
We just came out with a new software upgrade for the LG VX8300 that gives it several new abilities. The new software update adds support for stereo Bluetooth, MP3, Adobe Flash Lite, and modem capability. This is I believe only the 3rd phone the VZW offers right now with stereo bluetooth. THe Chocolate and the KRZR were the first two to have this ability. Just take it into a VZW store and its free to upgrade to the new software flash. > We just came out with a new software upgrade for the LG VX8300 that > gives it several new abilities.

I heard through the grapevine it enables 2GB MicroSD recognition, true? Thanks! >> We just came out with a new software upgrade for the LG VX8300 that >> gives it several new abilities.

Hi, I've never had a software upgrade before, how long does this take? 5 mins or so? Thanks, eb >> Just take it into a VZW store and its free to upgrade to >> the new software flash.

Call ahead and make sure it's a store with techs (and the cable) that can do the upgrade. Not all stores have techs, and at the ones that do, some only during certain hours. -Quick >>> drock22 wrote: >>> [quoted text clipped - 13 lines] > > -Quick It took me 45-60 min to have my VX8100 flashed when I had it done. 5 min to get your information entered and then you get to wait  SignatureAndrew D.

The upgrade itself shouldn't take more than a couple of minutes once they start on it. >> Wow .. that is long .. I wonder why it takes that long.

It depends on the phone. I am friendly with the tech at our local store and some phones do take a lot longer. One phone I had took an actual 20 minutes to flash. I remember handing it to him and watching him connect it and when I circled back 15 minutes later it was still being programmed. >>> Wow .. that is long .. I wonder why it takes that long.

I have already used a stereo bluetooth headset with the vx8300 and it worked just fine (music in mp3 format). Not sure why that's being touted as a new feature. Also, as I mentioned mp3s already supported after selecting appropriate menu option. John >> We just came out with a new software upgrade for the LG VX8300 that >> gives it several new abilities.

The only ones I'm aware of are the ones that VZW will sell you and the Motorola ones I see on ebay.

I read that the software version needs to be newer and I need AVRCP (audio video remote control profile). Will Verizon upgrade my software to where I can use the two devices together? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ View this thread: http://www.wirelessforums.org/showthread.php?t=9881 http://www.wirelessforums.org |
