    Re: T-720 Blank Screen

    That has happened to me also. It seems to be a problems with this particular
    model. Anyone have any suggestions to solve this problem? Thanks for the
    reply.

    I had a consistent problem with my T720 freezing when it was on and
    charging and the battery reached fully charged. It would also appear
    to work but you couldn't hear anything and the caller couldn't hear
    you when it reached fully charged.
    I am a reasonably heavy user so I went to my provider's local store
    and asked for an upgrade. The woman who helped me admitted that they
    have been having a major spate of complaints about the same thing.
    They agreed to upgrade me to a T730 for a token charge. I left it
    powered up and in the desk charger last night and, so far no freezing
    up.
    Interestingly, the woman said their Motorola rep told them the bug was
    intentional "To make you turn off the phone when charging"
    Ridiculous! This would completely negate the use of the desk charger,
    the car charger, it is not mentioned in the manual and if they really
    wanted it off I am sure they could program the software to turn it off
    when you plugged the phone it. They just screwed up and won't admit
    it.

    What puzzles me is why the provider doesn't just call Motorola and
    tell them they have irate customers, they are replacing them with
    730's, Motorola will eat the expense or they will switch to Nokia.

    Does the T730 fit all the same accessories as the T720 (data cable,
    power cord, car kit)?

    News flash, the blank screen problem has migrated to the 730. Mine just went
    black this morning. Got another, lets see how long it lasts. I had 2 720s
    and 2 730s in one month and the month has not ended yet.

    I just got a BRAND NEW T730 and the screen also went blank! I had to remove

    Jeffrey,
    The t730 is a really great upgrade from the t720. I had the t720 and
    experienced nothing but problems and freezing...the only difference
    between the t730 and the t720 besides the great software and firmware
    upgrades is the front face is different...verizon installed the pro-car
    kit in my car for a v60, i had them switch the hang up cup to the t720,
    and the t730 works just fine with that kit. glad to be of help

    Thanks. No problems with my 2nd T720, at least so far. But if I do,
    it's good to know that I can upgrade without needing to replace the
    installed car kit, too.
