Today im planning on doing the verizon>>tmobile switch

which of these 2 would you guys reccomend?

LG VX6000 Camera phone:



Samsung A530:



i really like how the samsung has a color lcd on the outside, but which of the two is a better phone in your oppinion?

 

neither you should wait...

if i had to choose LG defiantely more options... hands down

 

i cant really wait nor do i want to b/c ive had my phone for way too long and its at the end of its life...

thanks for the input

 

I like my LG6000, havnt really played to much with the 530

 

actually, do any verizon phones come with speaker phone?

 

yeah so add "Audiovox CDM8900" in there too

 

or audio- 8600

 

i like teh sam a530 the new silver color is SHHHWEETT

 

Ok i went to verizon and apparently (as mikey would know) they stopped shipping the a530 with the 2nd batt so i didn't want it (cause i couldn't justify the price). after rebates the camera lg was only $10 more then the non camera lg, so i got the lg 6000.

Mikey, any idea how long i should have to carry around my old phone w/ me for going from tmobile>>verizon?

 

nm, took about 14 hours

 

10 mintues- 3 days usually takes...today i had a customer that took 4 hours...any more then 3 days call verizon customer care for the port center number and they can check the status.

 

Neither go with the Moto V300...blows both of these phone away.

 

is their a verizon phone like the lg6000 but without the camera ? that i really dont care about.

 

I just bought one.
The LG VX-4500

I got my LG6000 a week ago and after calling tech support a dozen times they finally figured out that the reason ive had so many problems is that people that port their number over to verizon need to go to a location that has a tech so that they can upgrade the firmware in the phone. What a pain in my ass. Verizon sucks I wish I would have never left sprint.

 

thats the biggest load of bullshit i have heard. who told you this. not once have i had to have a customer get their phone flashed after they have ported in. what was the problem you were having with it?

 

I wasn't able to access the mobile web. I did as they said and got the firmware updated and now it works fine. Also fixed an anoying high piched beep during every call

 

i got the vx6000 and i love it

first charge the battery lasted 1 1/2 days, second change its on its 4th day or something

 

its not BS....

the LG6000's previous software had a glitch in it that did not allow certain phone features to work properly due to LNP.

...which is why newer software had to be flashed into the phone. my guess is u got a phone with the older software....

for some strange reason, that was the only phone with an LNP problem....

 

the old software allowed you to trick into speakerphone

the phone is physically capable of doing it, its just not in the software for some unknown reason

 

So what's the best from Verizon right now?

What about something that's not too expensive? (Under $150)

Any thoughts on the Moto t730?

 

moto 730 is old, nasty and crappy under 150 is the lg6000 or if you want to wait a month or 2 some new toys should be on there way if i am not mistaken..

 

go with an LG 4400 or 4500 before that 730... the charging ports always go bad on motorola's....
