I fugured that if everyone just posts their problems in this one thread, then it would be much easier then looking around the forum to help someone out.
I'm gonna e-mail howard or one of the administraters and ask if there is a way to start a lounge sort of thing, like on the Veirzon forums.
Ok, well i have a question, i dunno if anyone will read it but perhaps you could help.
Ive been able to put mp3 ringers on my 8910, but when someone calls they are kinda late to ring compared to true midi ringers. is that just my phone being retarded? cause what will happen is it will vibrate for one ring, then the mp3 will kick in, but with true midi files it will vibrate and ring starting at the same time (earlier). Maybe my mp3's are a bad bitrate or somthing, i don't know. What programs do you guys use to encode mp3's from .wavs? and what are the parameters you use? Thx.

Mine does the same thing. I buy mine of Get it Now, or send them to my phone via MMS. I think it's just the time it takes the phone to retreive the files from it's memory. MP3s are bigger files then MIDI therefor, it takes longer for it to retreive it.
has anyone heard abotu teh 8910 being an upgrade of the 8610? i read it on the forums somewhere and that might explain why some techniques for the 8900 dont work on the 8910.
Do the codes from the 8900 work on the 8610? If they do then yes the 8910 is an upgrade from its ancestor 8610. But to me the 8900 and 8910 look alike, where the 8610 and 8600 look alike ... dont know software wise...
I have knowticed that with the 8900 people are always talking about MP3 files, and PNG/GIF files, but on the 8910 all the music files are pmd and the images are bmp.
I am not sure if pmd are just MP3 and MIDI files with the extension changed or if they are there own filetype.
Another question is how to get an image/ringtone to show up without hex editing on a VirginMobile 8910. That download____.txt files that many people have mentioned with the 8900 don't exist on my 8910. And I tried using the get graphics option and all it does it throw you over to Virgin's WAP site.
Also does anyone have a full list of ether 8910 #codes, Virgin #codes, both, or atleast a site that might have them?

The 8910 is a combo of the 8610 and the 8900. Most of the codes for the 8610 work on the 8910 and i heardf that most of the codes for the 8900 work on the 8910.

All of this is because Virgin Cripples the firmwares on their phones to a sickneing extent! You can do MANY more things with the Verizon 8910 then the VM 8910....
If You want codes, then here you go
##1111(END) - [doesn't work]
##2773(END) - [doesn't work]
##20022002(END) - [doesn't work]
##2222(END) - [doesn't work]
##2240(END) - [doesn't work]
##2250(END) - RFNV Contents. [works]
##2283(END) - Set the data port baud rate. [works]
##7738(END) - Change P_Rev. [works]
##1122(END) - Test ringtone, vibrate, and colors. [works]
##1133(END) - [didn't test]
##1144(END) - Change the length of the keypad tones. [works]
##27752345(END) - Battery info and modification. Be careful! [works]
##27732726(END) - Software tests and stuff. [works]
The ones that say [dosen't work] mean that they don't work on the VM 8910. ALL of them work on the Verizon 8910 and do different things!
Honestly, i really don't know! I got these from the Virgin Forum I did test them all my self and if you have a Verizon 8910 then all of them work! Try them your self if you have another provider.
Does anyone know if a USB data cable will work with the Verizon Wireless version of the 8910? I am interested in seeing if anyone has been successful in transfering ringers, wallpaper/pics, and MP3's to and from the phone with a USB cable. The link below says that it is possible but I have heard that VZW phones are "locked out".
