Verizon’s LG Voyager gets a massive firmware update
Are you one of the many Verizon customers who ran out to grab a new Voyager on launch day, only to discover that the handset had more glitches and issues than you could deal with? Relief may be in sight. Verizon and LG have just came out with a massive firmware update that appears to address a number of significant issues. Among the most significant fixes include an updated and improved battery life, better Bluetooth support, mobile web and HTML browser enhancements, and more. The update is available immediately, but you’ll have to head down to your local Verizon store to get the goods. Check out the full rundown below.

- Fixed to allow ESPN application on external touch screen
- Fixed to allow Mobile IM on external touch screen
- Fixed to have no difference between the displayed image (to let you know which scene was taken) and the actual saved image, when you take a picture aiming at any moving objects
- Fixed when device goes to maps.google.com, the device resets
what a losser just say you hate verizion ,wont you .. clearly a iphone lover of “dreak”
fyi…no , this is the same as dialing *228 1 then 1 again check it out… not a real software update of fixs offered at store …you still need to go in.. i got a letter in snail mail went in and pretooo all was fixed ….
Well…
as a prior subscriber to Sprint, T-mobile and Metro, Verizon easily has the best service.
If any1 has read the past Consumer Report Magazine on Cell phone providers, you would kno that Verizon nearly won out 15 of 18 different cities nation wide for over ALL quality. A huge achievement. A simple firmware update is hardly a way to “loose” more customers… the only downside is that u can not do it at home… as “Shane” illuded to… why are so many hating?
-side note/question– does any1 kno if there is a hotkey or shortcut key to enable Security lock on the phone (4digit passowrd) so that you are not required to go through the full menu of the phone?… …i have a nosey G.F…. =)~
Phone is arriving tomorrow. Is it possible to link to Outlook to get my contacts off the database on the PC?
I switched to the Samsung i760 and all is well again. Couldn’t wait for the Voyager and Verizon took care of my trade in.

did the update but still looking for something to get more data in the contacts area. miss not having my address fields.
if you have verizon. get “the back up” it’ll do it for you right off your phone if you have the info stored.or.from your alternate email base. if not. x-port addy into ur fav website Or x-port into doc. then import to where u want.
This phone is awfully irritating. I am begining to develop a certain loathing for this and verizon service. Is there a way to reprogram this junk so only show a handfull of shortcuts and remove all other services from it ?
