I have had my phone for 10 months. One time I opened my phone to reply to a message and my screen looked like something was loading but never went away. Now I cant do anything with my internal screen because i cant see anything. Can someone please help me?

Just on here looking for a manual...And I don't know what's up with the EnV 2 bad reviews. I got this phone just after it came out and the only problem I've had is trying to figure out how to turn off call forwarding. It's been dropped several times, my 19 month old plays with it, and Its even been sat on and works just fine.

I have this phone. piece of crap. I got it April 2009. It is only 4 months old, and the Send, OK, 7, 8, 9, 4, and 6 buttons stopped working on the front. Also, i need to talk to everyone on SpeakerPhone because it doesn't work on the front. Sometimes it'll freeze when i text. My phone is only 4 months old, and it is already broken. When I took it to the Verizon Store, they didn't know what to do.....well, i was like "you sold me this phone, i want a new free one!" so theyre shipping me one now. Don't get this phone. Go with the Voyager [the first one], EnV3, or the Alias 2. Anything but this phone.

i have the same problems. do you know the number you gotta call to get a replacement?

USER REVIEW: Decent Phone

8/19/2009 10:29:11 PM
PROSFlip Open design, full keyboard, excellent picture quality, amazing battery life
CONS
Silver and clear paint chips easily, no flash on camera. Occassionally buttons do a weird sticky thing on the external display. 0 and send are really close together, a problem for avid texters.
SUMMARY
Great for text messaging, over all my best phone ever. The button thing is annoying, but not regular. Otherwise it is an excellent phone, and perfect for text messaging. The battery life is amazing. I can text all day on it and still have half a battery at the end of the day!

ARTICLE: Tidbit Tuesday: Verizon offers enV2 for $20; new WiMAX launches

Since we can't actively cover every news article that breaks (as much as we would love to), PhoneDog compiles various announcements and press releases that have been published throughout the week and places them in one easy to read article. Enjoy!

(Formerly known as "Weekly News In Review")

Verizon reduces LG enV2 to $19.99 for three day sale
In what appears to be an effort to exhaust inventory of an aging device, Verizon Wireless has discounted the LG enV2 to $19.99 with a new, two-year agreement. The deal, which runs for three days (ends on August 20th), can be taken advantage of with any price plan, as long as it is a new activation.

WMDeals offers T-Mobile Touch Pro2 for $149.99
The way we see it, you could either go to a T-Mobile retail store and pay $349.99 for a Touch Pro2, or pick one up for $149.99 from WMDeals. Available through the month of August, the offer is available for new lines of service only, and in order to get the discount, the customer must call the toll-free number in the picture above. More than half off of T-Mobile retail cost - not a bad price at all! Via WMExperts

Verizon Wireless launching OS 4.7.1.42 for BlackBerry Tour soon?
Though it seems to be rumor and nothing more at this point, BGR is reporting that OS 4.7.1.42 could be en-route to Verizon Wireless' BlackBerry Tour customers (and Sprint shortly thereafter). No word on what improvements the software will bring, but it's possible that it could fix some slowdown and lag problems that customers are reporting. Via BGR

Clearwire and Sprint launch WiMAX in Atlanta, Portland, and Las Vegas
Clearwire and Sprint formally launched WiMAX in Atlanta, Portland, and Las Vegas today, bringing the 4G technology to a total of four markets in the United States. Unlimited service costs $69.99/month, while a day pass costs $10. At present, only one device is available for use with the service (on Sprint's side) - the U300 USB modem. Clearwire and Sprint are slated to launch the following markets by the end of 2009: Chicago, IL; Dallas, TX; Ft. Worth, TX; Philadelphia, PA; Austin, Texas; Abilene, Texas; Amarillo, Texas; Boise, Idaho; Bellingham, Wash.; Charlotte, N.C.; Corpus Christi, Texas; Greensboro, N.C.; Honolulu, HI; Killeen-Temple, Texas; Lubbock, Texas; Maui, Hawaii; Midland-Odessa, Texas; Raleigh, N.C.; Salem, Ore.; San Antonio, Texas; Seattle, WA: Waco, Texas; and Wichita Falls, Texas.

i had this phone as my first and im saying definately dont get this as your first phone. i cracked the external screen so i could barely see any of the external but then all of a sudden the internal screen went blue like it was loading but never went away. i dont know what to do. my friends phone did this and the guy at customer service said it had to many apps. i dont know what that means so i deleted all my sounds and my pictures. it still doesnt work. dont get this phone as your first. save yourself the trouble and get the newest one there. and get insurance. save yourself the hassle.

This phone is seriously a piece of junk...and that's saying it in nice terms. I am now on my 3rd replacement and I'm about to replace it again. The 'Send', '7', '8', and '9' buttons on the front stopped working and it would do the random shutoff thing.

The backlight on the second phone would flash by itself every 2-3 minutes even when I turned the backlight totally off. I even caught it dialing on the front panel by itself even though the front was of course locked. My third phone is having the same problem with the backlight.

I'm wishing I had waited and got the Alias 2. I'm hoping this time when I go to Verizon to replace it they will let me get a different phone. Its been less than a month and I'm on the 3rd phone already! Save yourself the inevitable headache...do not buy this phone.

my env2 sucks so bad
like basically all the buttons on the front
stopped working
but im getting the env3 so its good=]

USER REVIEW: Black or Maroon

6/24/2009 10:09:41 AM
PROShas a qwerty keyboard and vz navigater not heavy heavy duty but my mom works outside and has dropped hers who knows howmany times and still works just fine and looks ok....so its kinda in the heavy duty area not hard to figure out spent 5 min, with it and learned it all.you cantext with the flip open or closed and can do almost the same on the outside as you can the inside.
CONS
frount keys dont work that well sometimes break the battery has a short lifespand and u dont get very good reciption.no side arrow keys on the frount of the phone.i personally think that the qwerty keys are 2 close together andi all the time oush the wrong button or the symbols button and enter a symbol not a letter.a small mermory,easliy scrathched.
SUMMARY
i have had 3 env2s alreadyinte first mounth i had orignally got the maroon color and about 9 days later we took it back bnecause of my keys on the frount.a few days later we took that one back becauseo f the battery and got the black one......everyone says the black one is better there not sure but all myfriends have the balck one and have had no problems so i got the black one and love i tno problems so far except for the battery but i text a lot so i think that is the reason why.bad signal to send....well i hate that but u can send in digital so u really dont half 2 worry about that inless u call alot which most of amerca is not doin there all texting.this phone si nice and small and light wieght besides my 1st bad expercince i love this phone and recomend this to people who are easy on there phones......and not like myomom who worksout side......easly scratched though.

it is by far the worst phone i ever had. at first i loved and it was great.i have only had mine seine November 2008 and it will 'freeze' wen i am witting a text or talking a picture then it turns off. at a few month with that phone trust me u will want to chuck it at the wall. i normally just drop it 2ft once in a while like wen I'm asked to do a trick so it doesn't hurt me. and it sucks!!!! oh and yeah the phone has graphics

USER REVIEW: Do not Buy!!!!!!!

CONS
Small keyboard-trouble texting-breaks easily-Just about anything you can think of
SUMMARY
I've been using my friends phone for a week...I don't know how he lives with it!!!!! It's a waste of money, if you're on verizon get a glyde or a voyager as your texting phone.
