Setting up a Motorola V3

Hi guys. A member of my family has received a new Motorola V3 RAZR this

morning and I've been aksed to set it up for them.

However, having gone through the web interface to register the SIM card

with Orange and all that, the phone is still unable to make calls.
Furthermore, the message button (the one with the envelope) doesn't
work (all I get is a beep from the phone) so I'm finding it impossible
to get to my inbox.

Does anyone have any ideas how I should proceed?

Kind regards,

Matt

Having registered, you should reboot the phone. The phone will then find
the network, SIM updates will be received and all will be well.

If it does not seem to have registered after 24 hours then I would
advise you to phone in and register again using 0800 079 0006.

Hi Matt

Was this an e2save phone? A silver Razr v3 with an Orange Canary
contract?

I have the same problem. Orange sent the sim updates and I spent some
time on the phone to the e2save techie people. e2save then
acknowledged that the phone was not working properly so I sent it back
and they sent a replacement....... which is exactly the same.

I can make calls but the blue envelope does not do anything and I
cannot get in the "home screen" to set up the clock and other things.

I think this phone was originally configured for T-Mobile, as that is
how the mms settings are configured.

Sorry I can't help.

That is shocking.
