My phone just blinks vcast now

My phone has been working well, until now it wont even turn on unlesss i take the battery out and put it back in. when it turns on it just shows vcast and just keeps blinking that..the bar doesnt even load, the screen just keeps blinking. i went to verizon wireless center to ask for help and they offered no help as to what may be the problem or whats going on..instead they just told me i would need to get a new phone but WAIT. id also have to pay the full retail price instead of the sales price because of their stupid contract, id rly rather not do that so any help would be appreciated.

I work for verizon-take your phone to a verizon store, have them swap it out for a new one. If your phone is under warranty you should be able to swap it out for a new one. If you are in contract the WARRANTY IS GOOD FOR THE LIFE OF THE CONTRACT. Call our Customer care line, don't go back to the store.

Lg EnV VX9900 CLR Button Resets phone.

When you hit the clr button it will go back to the screen you where prior. When your booting up, it will show the Vcast screen. Maybe check your backlight setting.

Turn it on, all it does is vcast flashes off and on

Same thing here... got caught in the rain, and now it just goes on to the V-Cast screen and flashes.  Removing the battery does nothing.  Tried a blow dryer to the case (didnt disasemble) but this had no effect.  Any ideas? [email protected]

Get pictures and video off phone to the computer

Preparation ? if an external Micro SD external memory card is to be used as the desired music/video/picture repository on the W755, install the card in the W755 behind the battery. Then go to SETTINGS & TOOLS ? MEMORY ? CARD MEMORY ? FORMAT and format the new card. Caution: reformatting the card will wipe out all contents on the SD card. Download/install free Motorolla Handset USB Driver Installer onto the PC (execute ?.msi? file). Download/install free VCast/Rhapsody software (no need to actually sign in or use the proprietary Rhapsody service). Start the VCast/Rhapsody software. Turn on cell phone (works with W755 and may work with other Verizon ?music phones? such as LG Chocolate, but the latter was not tested). Connect phone to PC ? connect USB cable to PC?s USB port first, then connect USB cable to phone . Be patient, it may take a minute to fully ?connect? in the phone?s display. Go to ?Sources? section of VCast/Rhapsody GUI screen ? the phone will register as a directory title using a name roughly like ?VCast xxx.? Windows Explorer will also show a ?VCast? drive/directory device. Files can be selected and dragged to and from source and target directories. At this point various options exist regarding music, picture, video management: 1.) The VCast/Rhapody software can be used to manage music, picture, and videos between the PC and phone. Again, no need to use the VCast service, just the software offline. 2.) Alternatively, other music management software such as Media Monkey (a personal favorite) can be used to move music, create playlists, etc. ? NOTE: Leave VCast/Rhapsody software running in the background as a means to ?connect.? It is best to start VCast, then plug in phone, then start other media management software so that the media management software will benefit from the connection (usually with a directory name using some variation of ?VCast.? Then use the alternative media management software as usual. Please note, this is a generalization based on success using basic software like Media Monkey, for example.

My enV keeps turning on and off...it won't stay on or off!

My son had the same problem within a week of adding a MicroSD memory chip. He removed the chip and re-inserted it, and the problem went away. I am not an expert, but I assume that the chip had become loose and that it was causing the phone to lock up. When it was re-inserted the phone returned to its normal functioning.

I hope this helps anyone with a similar problem.
