I just got my phone back from the Hays Repair center today. I have a Vodafone branded one and I got them to update the firmware to R2V. I must say the phone feels better using it. Navigaton between the menu items is much faster the screen is definately better. I bluejacked two people with it today :laugh:.

R2V is the latest firmware update ... i take it this is available now in the Uk too ?

i'm probably going to buy a v710 in a day or two, whenever i can manage to get to verizon and had a few questions

i love how it has an sd card slot, now i can swap stuff between the cell and pda. what my question was though, can i take an mp3 (i know it would probably have to be downsampled a bit), place it on the sd card then to internal memory and set that as my ringtone? that would give me some endless and hilarious possibilities for ringtones :D

hmmm what else..

should i just ask for the firmware update right when i'm buying the phone, or would verizon reflash when they give you the phone?

AND (sorry if i'm bothering anyone)

does verizon do some sort of phone trade-in dealie? i have an LG-VX4500 (got it in march i think) and if i can trade that in to take off some of the price of the v710 that would kick some serious ass. $369 is a little steep for a phone but omg it looks so nice.

speaking of nice, i know people say picture quality is good and all, but i havent seen any pictures. i implore anyone to post some pics for me.

ok i'm done now.

Would someone be able to point me in the right direction to find some wallpapers for my K700i. Im after some pics of hot women. :p :blush: Or if someone could make me some in Photoshop. The size for the picture is 128x176. Thanks in Advance.

I asume you know about mobile9.com

Its easy, Nothing. I did it a few times in town today with my mates phone. All you need to do is :

1) Create a new contact in your phonebook, With the name set as the message you want to send. The number can be any old crap.

2)Save the new contact in the phonebook if you havent already done so.

3)Go to the the phone book and look up the new contact you have created. Go to options then send via bluetooth (As if you were sending it as a business card). It will scan for all the devices in the area.

4)Select the one you want to bluejack and hey presto

i love doing that! its so fun been doing it for just about a year now and it is v.enjoyable lol

I had a go in town the other day whilst I was outside the bank and there must have been a Bluetooth Printer inside the bank. I wonder if I sent a message to the printer, would it print out. That would be funny. You can have all sorts of fun sending messages to unsuspecting people and the watch when people look at there phone puzzled. Its amazing how many people have bluetooth wide open in public places such as the Cinema, Around town and in bars. Try sending a message to someone saying they have won a free drink of there choice just go to the bar to claim it. Or in the middle of a film send a message to someone saying that theres a call for them downstairs lol.

haha its so cool :D

I was in the restaurant with my family, and I'd told my little sister on the way there what BlueJacking was, and how to do it, so she said I should give it a go...

We were sitting around waiting to order, when I saw a girl behind my sister pull out a Nokia N-Gage - I instantly knew this would have bluetooth enabled by default - so I searched for it, and there it was.. named "Georgette" - obviously the little girl's name ;)

So I tapped into my address book, "Hello Georgette" and sent it off to her N-gage.

At this point both me and my sister were almost dying of anticipation to see if it had worked - low and behold, the girl turns to her mum, sounding rather panicked - "Mum i've just got this weird message on my phone, and I don't know who its from!!" then moments later all i heard was "bluetooth...... first name: hello, last name: georgette"

me and my sister found it VERY hard to contain ourselves from bursting out laughing - it friggin worked :D

And in the pub last nite i jacked 5 people - one phone was called Billy Joel! haha :D

    • But building your own.. what? You can't build anything like the Steam Machine yourself. Even trying to get close costs a good deal more. Even just the CPU cooler in their price comparison is as big as the entire Steam Machine. If you want a regular gaming PC, then by all means, build that. If you want a a small console-like PC for the living room that is good for gaming, I'm not sure what else is a better deal. In the GN review, they only mentioned a small form factor Dell, which is like twice the size and hundreds of dollars more expensive.
    • Those are some popular multiplayer games. But hardly "all". Just those that don't work on Linux currently due to specific anti-cheat implementations. I think it's also fair to point out the literally thousands of games that don't work on the PS5. And it's not locked at 1080p. That's the default, which you can change.
    • Ubuntu Livepatch arrives on Arm64 to eliminate system reboots for kernel updates by Paul Hill Canonical has just announced that its Livepatch service now supports computers with Arm64 processors. For those who are not familiar, Livepatch allows users to apply important kernel updates without any service interruption or rebooting. While home users will benefit from this, it’s even more important for critical machines that absolutely should not be going offline at all. The feature is available as part of Ubuntu Core 26 for Arm64 and Ubuntu Core 20 and onwards for AMD64. According to Canonical, this will improve the security of systems that aren’t security-maintained daily or weekly, and it helps organizations work towards Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) compliance. If you are familiar with Ubuntu, you probably know that most packages can be updated without having to restart the system. There is one big exception to this, and that’s the kernel; it typically requires you to reload the system to boot into the new kernel. With Livepatch, Canonical has done something so that you don’t need to restart to begin using the new kernel. Aside from Ubuntu Core 26, users with Arm64 chips running Ubuntu 26.04 LTS can also use Livepatch. If you want to learn more about Livepatch, check out its product page. There, you can also find a button to join Ubuntu Pro (it’s free for several home devices) so that you can enable Livepatch. By linking your computer to Ubuntu Pro, you will also extend the life of your Ubuntu install from five years to ten years. If you are running Ubuntu, let us know in the comments if you have been looking forward to this feature on your ARM-based computer. If you’ve had a compatible AMD64 machine for a while and never used this feature, let us know why in the comments!
