Anyone got any questions?
Just picked this phone up today, was planning on originally getting the 8400 but the pulled it today, so for the same price after mail-in I got this phone. If anyone has any questions as far as features, or anything goes, just let me know, and I'd be more than happy to answer.

How's the reception and ear piece quality?
I just checked this phone out at the store, but it seems that the external display doesn't show the sprint music player. instead, it shows "application running."
Have you found a way to make the Musiq act like the Fusic, where it actually has the ...

Discontinued?
My daughter has a Fusic that's acting flakey. I was thinking I would replace it with a Muziq, but I don't see it on Sprint's web pages. Has it been discontinued?

JuiceCaster
In helping my wife find a solution to her iPhone picture messaging issues, I stumbled across this application that I've downloaded to my Muziq and it's a dream -- unlimited picture messages, posting of pictures directly to facebook, and a ton of other stuff.
Anyhow, just thought i'd share it with you all - http://www.juicecaster.com/?i=c26

USB MODE
When my phone is plugged-in throught the usb and i want to use my phone as a modem it tells me "Please initiate dial-up networking on your pc." i'm not exactly sure what that means let alone how to do it. I dont even think i know what it means to use my phone as a modem. If someone could explain it would help me out a great deal thanks!

Ringtones for LG AX-565
I just go the LG AX-565 the other day, I like it so far, but I'm still trying to figure out how to make my mp3 songs a ringtone. Does anybody know how to do this????
I'm in the same boat as you...I was going to try to bluetooth them from my computer but i cant find my bluetooth dongle to try this...if i find it ill let you know how that works
Get the USB driver from Sprint. What you want is the "Sprint PCS Connection Manager for Phone as Modem/USB Cables." The only part you need to check to install are the LG Drivers.
Get BitPim from http://www.bitpim.org/. It doesn't fully support this p...

Muziq and email push
I have been programming my email accounts into my phone. Most are successful except my yahoo account and my pop3 account. I can blame my lack of total ability to understand all the steps needed to do the pop3 account, but absolutely no success with my yahoo. I keep receiving a notice that says unable to connect to server (S7122).
Anyone have any tips?
I've only had this phone a couple of months and was having the exact same problem with my yahoo email. I checked to see if there were any updates available, since there were I went ahead and updated it to the LX570V05 version and this seemed to have ...

whats the point?
It's nice to see that Sprint finally has another phone for their company coming out. Their weak selections lately make me wonder whats going on with the company. Other than some cosmetic changes what we have is the same old fusic repackaged. Bluetooth 1.1, same screen, 1.3 megapixal. I mean, come on do a little improvement to make it more appealing!!! I currently own the original Fusic. It's ability to just hold more memory just doesn't seem to merrit the upgrade.
unfortunatly this is a cosmetic upgrade. they do not want to release anything higher end until they realize that the upstage is not the phone to promote.
SDHC is a big enough deal for me to ditch my m610 for the Muziq. I have been debating for months on whether or not to buy an iPod because music phones were limited to 2 GB. But now that Muziq has SDHC, 4 GB is supported and although it is not official...

I agree. It makes no sense to me why new CDMA handset have Bluetooth 1.1; especially with the emergence of new 2.0 compliance BT headsets. 👿

I have read reviews on both phones. i still dont know what to go for. I have a SANYO 8400 now, and i want upgarde.
I have the same question.
I looked at both tonight at the store..
I really do like the dlx.
I also like the Muziq.
I see bigger keys on the Muziq easier for texting and all that.
However I don't know which has better reception and I hear th...

I just got my phone Muziq today.
So far from just walking in my house with it before I put it on the charger i've noticed
that I go between 3-4 bars.
My Verizon phone is anywhere between 1-3 and sometimes I see the roaming message on it.

I just went through the book and found something interesting.
Despite the specs you read online saying the phone has up to 4 hours of digital talk time.
The book says up 130 minutes. 2 hours and 10 minutes. This may be why so many are complaining...

Update after having the Muziq for awhile
Well I would now rate the phone poorly. I'm on my third and waiting for my account to finish migration so another can be sent to me. First one wasn't picking up signal very good so that was the first replacement. Second one the keypad stopped working, right before that happened I started seeing an increase in dropped calls. Third one the volume is no longer adjustable. This is a software problem. I have given up on the FM transmitter as it is nearly useless with the amount of stations crowding the airwaves in the area I'm in. I'm going to ask for a switch from the Muziq with this replacement. I have called LG about the phone and I hope I never have to call them again. This was my first and last LG phone I will ever own. I'm sick of...

How do I find my LOCK CODE?
When I try to reset factory default it asks for a lock code? Where do I find this?
The lock code to get into your security features or your master service code? The master service code isn't given to customers but any sprint corporate store will be able to help you reset your phone. Your lock code (as in on your security settings) i...

What has better camera???????
What has a better camera the lg muziq, the RAZR v3m, or the katana dlx. That will really help in my desicion to pick a phones. Thanks
they all have the same resolution (1.3 MP) but I'd go with the Muziq for the other features. Mp3 pad, 4gb micro SD capacity (2gb on the others) better screen, java in background apps and FM transmitter. 2nd choice would be the DLX, and obviously 3rd...

Some Mp3s don't play (error M506)
Some of my MP3s don't play on the phone once they are transferred. I get an error M506. It probably depends on how they were encoded. Has anyone else seen this problem and do you have a work-around / fix?
Thanks!
Yes, Yes i have the same prob and its driving me CRAZZZY!!!.Please if anyone knows anything about this prob on the Muziq please fess up an how to deal with this.
I thought I was the only one having this problem. What could it be? I just got my phone 1 month ago and thats how long I've been trying to figure this out. Sprint told me that it might me a problem with the phone. After learning that i wasn't the ...

windows media player on Muziq
I recently upgraded from the fusic and it had windows media player on it.
The muziq does not and the only way to play music is thru the sprint music stor player (wich sucks)Even music on my Sd card can only play thru print music store.
Is there some way some how to hack/download windows media player into this phone??
If you can find the firmware for it, then MAYBE.
but since this is not a worldwide GSM phone, the options are VERY limited, as to loading apps and such. You're stuck with Sprint Music Store, unless you can buy a media player program and download it...
(continues)
Try to find a media player app that can go with the MobileJava the phone uses. try google and cnet.com to start (Opera may make one?)
Then get a 4gb micro SD and load the player on to the card if the phone does not have enough onboard memory to run ...
(continues)
Ok how and where?.Info man as muas possible.I am so intrested in getting windows media on my Muziq rather then the crap @ss sprint music player.

New software update available
Just in case fellow Muziq users haven't checked, there's a new software update available which will update to version LX570V05. The most notable change is different animations for power up/down; hopefully, some other issues were addressed.

4GB Micro SD: Will SD HC Cards work?
The Muziq can handle up to 4GB for the Micro SD card. However, does it work with a 4 GB Micro SD HC card? Or does it have to be a non-HC card?
Anything above 2GB is considered to be high-capacity, so a 4GB is high-capacity. The Muziq as you say will work with the 4GB card.
