For those who dont know... E815, V3C, V710, V3M info....

I read previously about how to apply mp3 as ringtones on RZR. Apparently the same applies to V710. You have to delete 2 files from the system software. My question is - V710 doesn't come with software nor USB connection like RZR. Fow do I do that on that phone? Can I get some more details regarding this issue on V710? I am with Telus.
Thanx.

The same V710 info at http://mark.cdmaforums.com applies to Telus.. also be sure to read the popular seem edits which shows...

seem 041A, bytes (h) 0000, record 1...
Offset 75 Bit 4 - Apply As Ring Tone Menu Option - Check to Disabled, uncheck to Enabled

which is also needed for the Telus V710....

I have a CDMA V3m with Verizon.. Ive enabled Multimedia options in MPTs, and I can transfer files to and from my computer.. My question is Has anyone found a way to enable games, applets, etc. to the phone.. I hear that BREW is untouchable.. However, mine has AppMgr 2.0.4 v1 and BREW ver 3.12.50 if that makes any difference.. I know that skinning will brick my phone, but Ive heard mixed results on banner mods.. Any way to lose date and time displays in my main or external? I understand these phones are fairly new to the modding community.

Brew apps are "signed" and locked to the particular hand set. No one has found away around this... so if you want apps/games on your BREW phone... purchase them... or purchase the brew dev kit, write your app, and pay to have it tested and made available... then convince Verizon to add it to their Get-it-Now catelog...

As for Skinning... The Moto UserInterface (like the E815, or Alltel V3C/V3M use) can use real Skins (i.e. change the entire look/feel of the UI, placement of icons, background colors, etc)... where as the VERIZON UI (like the Verizon V3C/V3M/KRZR K1M use) can not use Skins... however, the people over at HackTheRazr.com have a "Skinning/Themeing" (notice the QUOTES!!) guide... which can at least change some aspects of your phone see -> http://hacktherazr.com/guide.v3c.v3m.skin.html

As for removing the date/time from the displays... Nope... If your phone used the Moto UI, you could for the inside display, as this can be accomplished with Skins... but with the Verizon UI, you can NOT, due to not being able to use regular or True skins.

Im a n00b to this modding thing, and Ive searched far and wide to answer this particular problem, (btw Venture, Ive read lots of your stuff, you rock) including your stuff also, but I cant load my last seem edits from my phone.. Ive confirmed that everything is working correctly, and I mEAN EVRYTHING, but p2kseemeditor shuts down automatically after attempting to load the last seems from my phone.. I might be overlooking something in the guides, but I keep seeing the same stuff I read 3 times over in the guides.. I also believe that I've read some methods on changing my current UI to the Moto.. My current SW version is NEWC_01.05.0A Are there any updated versions of FW I could flash to, so I may make more modding options available?? And if so, what are the available options? CorrectioN! I found a monster pack by RyRy but I dont know whats in it..

The most common issues for this... in no particular order...

1. bad copy of P2KSeem for V710... redownload from -> http://mark.cdmaforums.com/Files/P2KSeem4V710.zip
2. Wrong values for Seem number, bytes (h), or record field used.
3. PST or MSU not running in the back ground to get the phone into the proper mode.

For firmware versions See -> http://mark.cdmaforums.com/V3M_Firmware.htm

The only way to get rid of the VZW UI, and get the Moto UI is flash with the firmware from another carrier... its not a simple task... and takes a lot of DETAILED WORK... miss a step.. and your phone wont work for data, and you'll have to start back at the beginning (on the Verizon firmware)...

For more info... look for the threads discussing the ALLTEL MONSTER Firmwares...

I read.. Its pretty ballsy.. It requires working in a volatile and treacherous environment.. I'll pass for now.. Until I get a new phone.. You had posted that its possible to change my carrier banner so long as I dont remove the V or the last s.. Does that still apply? Also, what about Outer LCD display? Do you mean to say I can change it to a wallpaper? Sorry to go over and rehash these topics. But I prefer hearing this from the source.. Although I do realize this is done at my own risk..

Hi,
I'm a complete novice and wondering exactly how I can hack the 710 to enable jave. Hoping to be able to use gmail email app for mobile.

I "think" i've downloaded (thanks to you) what I need but there seems to be no instruction on how to proceed.

I will order the verizon data kit if that is what is needed also.

Thanks,

Phil

The only way to do this... flash your V710 with Telus firmware and that opens a new can of worms because you are no longer running the Verizon firmware...

Mark.

Thanks for all your work. I was just curious how you like your LG enV (vx9900). I'm debating to get that or the KRZR K1m. Any opinions? I'm on Verizon, and would probably use the mp3 feature on my phone the most.

Thanks in advance.

I used a K1m for all of about 5 min... so I can't really compare the two...

As for the enV.. Other than its over all size/weight... and the VZW menu system.. Its not a bad phone... But since I don't do texting much, and my E815's battery lasts longer... I'm sticking with my E815.
