modding your motorola phone  

yeah i hav those too. iv been a member on modmymoto, motomodders.net, and maxed for mobiles for quite sometime now. actually iv been a member at motomodders for about 3years now.

i also have a v3x. i never had the hang problems. its been with me for about three months now. iv recently done some moddings to it, iv been doing more on my rokr before. im also a member of modmymoto.com, also motomodders.net and maxedmobiles.com. iv added some skins, increased phone sounds, changed fonts, and improved some phone settings. about the hangs on your phone, when do you get those? i havent read on the forums about it hanging as much as your experiencing. did you buy it at greenhills? was the store credible? i bought mine at a good store, i had 1year warranty. if it has warranty then have it changed, if your willing to do so. for me, problems with motorola phones usually are discussed in the forums, if not, then ask the people there, they would respond quickly.

Unfortunately, it doesnt have a warranty, so I cant have it returned. Apparently the guys fixing celfones at greenhills have not heard of modmymoto or other related websites, so their software is not updated. I spoke to some people on modmymoto,and i was told that that hanging problem what the initial bug the v3x had and it has already been fixed. Problem is, when i tried modding it myself, alot of stuff went wrong. i dont know why,but i suspect it could be that the pc im using is not up to the task.(its pretty old!)

i wouldnt really prefer having the phone returned because its such a hassle. if i have exhausted all possibilities on my own in fixing it or its a hardware problem, then i'll return it.
usually, in cheap stores, they dont update their softwares so better do the fixing yourself or they would be bricking the phone themselves, or go to more credible ones.
lastly, try using a different pc. if you've got a friend that has one and wouldnt mind you installing some stuff, then go ahead. the advantage with a motorola other than the forums is that its never gonna stay dead. ive bricked my rokr twice or thrice but i get it to run still. im more careful now with my v3x.:)

Is there a way you can download V3x skins OTA and install them (like when you download java games or something) without actually having to "mod" the phone?
