LG enV2 (VX-9100)
V04 software
I've seen people that have just bought new env2 phones say they are coming loaded with V04 software that fixes some of the bugs.
Has anyone with the V03 phones been able to get the update from either FOTA or a store flashing?

I am looking at upgrading to this phone. What were some of the bugs in V03?? All the maroon ones in our store have V03 and the black ones have V04.

Learned something over at hofo. It apparently doesn't matter. V04 it seems didn't correct anything, it just accounts for LG using a different supplier for the inside LCD screen. Everything else is the same, so 04 has the same general bugs as 03.
Which include:
1.random notepad deletion
2.Video messages sometimes not playable
3.Pix messages showing up as the wrong size
4.keyguard defaults back to 7 seconds despite settings
5.phone power cycles during useage
6.alarm won't go off if you receive a text message before the set time or are charging the phone.
Many of them are listed in the previous pages. I think I got all the major ones.

A few of the issues you're listing aren't software errors from what I can tell.
2. Not being able to view video messages is something I fixed on mine by calling tech support, and they determined it was an issue with the provisioning on my account and had nothing to do with the phone itself.
4. The key guard returning to the 7 seconds is dependent on when you manually set it by holding the 0 key on the front. It keeps its setting until you manually set it with 0, which then indicates you want to KEEP it locked, hence the reason it turns it back to seven seconds.
I have not experienced any of the other issues, the alarm one sounds really major and I'm glad mine doesn't do that or I'd be royally screwed!

I have to disagree. The return to default on the keyguard has got to be a bug. Because if I set my keyguard to off or to 15 seconds or whatever, and decide every once in awhile that I need to lock it quickly (for all the good the damn keyguard does anyway, piece of junk), I don't at all intend for it to say "ooh, return to default for him, he wants this all the time". It's a bug because it's annoying and it goes against what the user asks of it.
...
Yeah you've got a good point. It makes the 15 second and 30 second settings completely useless if you need to lock it quickly.
...
Has anyone gotten V04 OTA? When I try to check, it says no updates available.
...
if you look at the posts above yours it answer the question.

I've been working this issue with Verizon since August 13, and believe I now know what's going on.
1. FOTA (Firmware Over The Air) is a feature on the env2 that is not yet supported on the server side. Verizon has no date for rolling it out.
2. The only way to get the 04 update is to flash the phone at a store - and not all stores are equipped to do it.
3. The ONLY fix in version 04 is to support second source for the LED display. No fix for abc/Abc, word text entry, keylock timeout reset, notepad issue, etc. Nothing but the LED alternate.
It took two weeks, several visits and calls, trouble tickets, etc. to get this far. The Verizon people are incredibly uninformed!

Pretty much old news. Established way back on July 31th that the V04 wouldn't help at all. See the appropriate posts above. It'd have saved you a lot of frustration.

My primary issue was the non-functioning FOTA update capability. Someone here said they'd done an "automatic update", but I finally got confirmation from Verizon technical support yesterday that was not possible.
The operational issues I was up on from my own experience and postings on this forum.
I've been using the env2 for a couple of months now.
