I bought the phone yesterday and am doing well. I haven’t bought a memory card yet. Other than mp3′s etc… can programs be stored on the card? If I download 50 programs will they just take up ram even when I am not using them, or can they be placed out of the way on the card, keeping the ram free for browsing and active programs?
Thanks,
I have 3 biscuits here, but I don’t think I am going to put them in my pouch.
There is two parts to the memory. One part is Storage the other part is RAM (which the programs load into when launched.) when you install an app you have to choice to install them on the device or on the storage card. (I usually install on the device just to keep it local.) Once installe it stays on there until you uninstall it. When you launch the app it loads the program into RAM so you can use it. Once you close the program (and go to running programs to make sure the app closes.) the RAM is reclaimed and ready to be used for another app.
Hope this helps
Can you watch youtube videos on the phone and is the internet the same as browsing it on a Treo or other PDA phones or have they improved it to browse the internet closer to like the iPhone?
[..YouTube..] would you say better than the voyager?
[..YouTube..] u cant compare them..voyager is just a phone..this is evrythin…
[..YouTube..] Lol ” the case couldnt even protect a biscuit…
how/where to do plug in a set of 3.5 mm earphones?
[..YouTube..] You need “what” kind of adapter with the USB/Headphone splitter cable?
[..YouTube..] how would you compare xv6800 with the i760?
Hello Mr Bowman
I heard one comment in your final review of the XV6800 that states that there will be a REV A firmware update available for this unit from Verizon. Do you have confirmation of this? Because the sales support person I talked to says the unit does not have the REV A chipset (unlike the Sprint HTC Mogul)
Maybe you got more detail from Verizon. Can you confirm?
[..YouTube..] “verizon got this right”?? try :G, they make the phone, not verizon.
[..YouTube..] I haven’t personally used the i760 but from what I have heard most people have been happy with either one.
[..YouTube..] I have to say, you are a very good reviewer. Able to keep consistency.
[..YouTube..] When you first open the phone, how do you get the background like that, with the digital numbers. I have tried everthing and it nothing seems to work.
[..YouTube..] I plan to post a tips and tricks type video soon for the device and will include that as well.
[..YouTube..] Thanks for the review! You did a great job.
i want that blue clock on my xv6800 how do i get it?
Great post, thanks for the info
