Or you can go to a verizon store and they'll update it for you. My Krave is really responsive now! Texting is so easier and quicker too. Also for texting, if you were trying to put "and", but you accidentally put "anf", it will recognize the mistake and change it to "and" for you. Very nice! Haven't tried the speed dial yet. How do even get to that?

Speed Dial actually took me a while to figure out. Basically, when you're in your contacts list, hit the drop down menu up at the top by the back button and select the "Speed Dial" option. Assign your numbers from there, and you'll be speed dialing in no time!

I agree with the list, but would add one more thing.

You know how most phones (all phones I've ever used) have a way to look at your calls, and you can select "recieved" or "sent" or whatever. But then if you just press the call or send button, it automatically brings up a list of all calls (sent and recieved) and you can just select one of them and hit call again and it calls that number.

That is the most basic thing I would expect any phone to have, and it's how I make 99% of my phone calls.

Why not change that useless home button to a call/send button instead?
What does the home button do? Take you home.
The end button will take you home too, so what is the point in having a dedicated button for that and not having a call/send button which would be very usefull?



By the way, I have apparently the old version of the software, but I tried to check for updates and it said none were available.

I'll vouch that all of the changes in the above post have been made. I got lucky - I didn't get my phone until yesterday (April , so all I've known is this latest version of the software.

I like the phone, but it will take some getting used to. But since I'm coming from a phone that couldn't hold a charge anymore, ANYTHING is better than 8 hours of standby and 15 minutes of talk time!

Take it to a Verizon store. I took mine there because I had like 200 phone numbers I wanted them to transfer. I guess they updated the software at the same time.

Much more accurate and responsive.

you could always delete more than one at a time- just swipe from left to right on any one, then a 'select all' menu pops up on the bottom.
but no for the programmable icons
