Sanyo SCP-5500 / VM-4500

I have had this phone for about 3mos. And I have noticed the battery has loosened up on the back of my phone. I also noticed the battery life is the worst I've EVER had.(including my n-400). I relize leaving the ready link on uses up more battery life than normal, but I can't make it an entire day. I was just wondering if anyone else has had any of these probs.

i wanted to know if anyone could help me use this phone on a verizon network....i know its possible....u basically need to get the unlock code off the phone using a data cable...which is doable...than call verizon and get them to accept the phone on there network...and than u need to get the prl so that the phone will use the verizon towers...but i dont know the prl...is there anyone out there that can help me?

Hi all,

I was wondering if anybody knows how to make an animated PNG file that could be used as an animated screensaver. What tools are needed also. I can let you know the highest resolution for the main screen is 132 x 160 for animation, it doesn't fill up the whole screen when animated. I haven't test out the resolution for "signal search" and "outgoing calls" as of yet. If anybody, that would be great also. Thanks all.

Does anyone besides me have trouble with volume on downloaded ringers for this phone?

I have tried a number of sites, including Sprint's, and the volume is weak on the downloads. The internal ringers are nice and loud, but no downloads.

Any solutions?

~QUO!~

I got my VM4500 about a month ago, and there does not seem to be any delay with the ready link when i talk to my friends. Does anyone know if there is any dealy, and if so, how long is it.

Anyone....

Does this phone have EXTERNAL picture ID???

Does the picture show on the outside screen so you don't have to open the phone to see the pic?? Or just the INTERNAL screen?

Thanks!

If anyone is interested me and a friend bought these phones on friday and have ready linking the bejesus out of each other. If you want me to test it on your phone email me at jopiv@hotmail.com with ready link in subject line.

Hi,

Thanks a ton

Hi all, I just wanted to let you guys know if some doesn't already know, is that the txt msg function for this phone, the RL2500, and I think the nokia phone now works!!!! I was just testing out my txt msg feature because I was bored today, and it went through showing "sending complete". I was like 😳 and my friend txt back, confirming me that this works!!! This is so much better then short mail and there is no use for that anymore at all. NOT even PCSmail also, this phone has a lot of feature when it comes to true txt msging. One neat thing is that you could send it to multiple recipients 😁

I think the readylink feature on my phone is broke ☹️ Can someone anybody help me out ☹️
my email is melhavic@yahoo.com

Does anyone out there know how many silver phones they have? I have one I was just wondering how many there is?

🙄 I have been looking for a PC Sync application that NOT only syncs the contacts from Outlook into the SCP-5500/VM4500 but also synchronizes the Calendar activities/events into the phone. Does anyone know where I can find this application? I found the cable already. Thanks.

Is the extended battery not out for this phone? Its not listed on the SprintPCS website...

Yo hot Readylink site check it out www.Readylinkusers.com

this is a good phone but im trying to decide which is better:this phone or the nokia3620.any thoughts?
😕

I talked to a Sprint PCS Rep. today.
I asked about the silver vm4500, they have mountains of them. I asked whats the best deal i could get on one. I was told resign my 2 yr contract and get $150 off. And, thats not all he told me that i was eligable to receive $100 credit to my account, plus a certain percentage off select accesories. i don't really know why i am eligable for the extra $100; maybe its do to my USAA account. When i call sprint it connects me to a sprint pcs/usaa rep.
He's called me back once today and reported about the status on stock, I get one call again on weds. to make the deal and get the silver.
No matter what happens i'm gonna be one happy camper.

i have to get a new phone; what is the best choice?

Just wondering, Does anyone know the total memory in the phone in MB.

Has anyone else not been able to access there PCS Vision but can do Ready Link. I call Sprint and all there trouble shooting doesn't seem to work. Can anyone help?
