Motorola Q

[saldana]

I got one of these last week, and despite the fact that i actually read the rather hefty manual, i am still having some issues getting alot of the functionality to work...i did find a forum for alot of issues, but dont have time to read through all of it looking for the answers i am looking for.


so my question to FOFC is: does anyone have one of these that may be able to help me out....i use sprint as my carrier.

I have one, but I've changed the default display pretty heavily. What questions you have?

Also (maybe what you found):

i cant get the email set up. i cant even get it to auto detect yahoo mail.

I'd have to get a closer look. Not sure how Yahoo works, if it has public SMTP and POP servers or if they are web only. If you can find the POP and SMTP information for Yahoo you can setup a new email account on the Q using that.

I have mine setup for an Exchange server. You need to install the certificate on your Q that Exchange uses and Exchange needs service pack 2 installed. I think it also needs RPC over HTTP enabled, but I haven't dealt with server side Exchange configurations specifically for the Q at all.

I had a Q, but really didn't like it and only kept it for a short period of time...I remember having a really hard time getting the email to work properly...I ended up using a push server called mail2web.com and just set my email accounts to forward to that, which would then send to my Q. The only downside was that if I replied from the Q, the return address was a mail2web.com address, not my gmail or yahoo address...I ended up putting a "please reply to..." line as my signature and that solved the problem for the most part...

Good luck!
