See subject. Is this phone coming back into Cingular's lineup with a new ROM update? If anyone knows please reply...

I know this phone is a love or hate proposition so I don't need a lot of "MPx220 sucks" replies....

According to my company rep, yes. Most likely sometime in July.

Expect the 1.43 ROM.

Seems like you can actually order it from Amazon.com... dunno if it'll ship when they say (1-2 days)...

Last I checked (just now, after reading this thread) hellomoto.com has them for $399. Kind of pricey imo.

Well, you've always been able to buy them Unlocked from vendors for market value, I think what he meant was the discounted with contract, which you haven't been able to do since March.

They are waiting to receive Cingular's final approval on the new software before the Mpx 220 is re-released. It should be pretty soon if it hasn't allready been done. There are several of us waiting on them after we were told we would not receive our V635 from the moto contest they said they are giving us Mpx 220's instead. STILL WAITING!!!

Well, I got one on order from amazon, though it's in "Not Yet Shipped" and I've got a delivery estimate of July 8-15... we'll still see if I get it.

Sounds like we'll see it sooner rather than later.

i just received two mpx220 phones from cingular on friday. they already sent me a smt5600 two weeks ago as a replacement for my broken mpx220. they were suppose to close out the order but i got the two phone not one also. to my surprise. i tried one of the phones as i also have another mpx220 that i use as my phone. the new one which is a new software and firmware phone has a major problem that i cant fix. the ring volumn cant be made to go higher. i have it on the highest setting and you cant hear it hardly. so it good news bad news. new phone same problem. well i hope someone can help me correct the ringer volumn problem and also when you use the speakerphone it also is very low. i guess it is the speaker.

Go to Start, Settings, About

Manufacturer: What is the number there?

If its 1.30 then you have the old firmware, you will need to upgrade to 1.430 or if you want you can try out the 3.45 Asian ROM with WMP10, system, speakerphone, incall, and ringer volume is pretty loud with both ROM's.

If you want louder ringtones re encode them to .mp3 .wav or .wma. If you have a sound editor program you can increase the loudness of the file and that will help, that is what I do and they are very loud. Go to the Smartphone forum and read thru the posts....the search button is your friend. Also go to my blog and read up on all the info there on the MPx 220, my blog is broken up into catigories that are listed to the left on the main page. The link to my blog is in my signature. You can PM me if you have any questions but please....read up before asking I would apreciate it.
