        It worked very nicely for about two years. Recently, the mic stopped working suddenly without any shock or damage. Now I can only use it via : Bluetooth, headphones or hands free speakers. I have no clue how to solve this problem, nothing available on Motorola website. I would appreciate your helpful reply or hints.

              i think this phone is really good. i just bought it about four days ago and i have no complaints....exept for one thing.
              last night my battery went dead and when i came home i put it to charge.... i started to charge for a while but then it just konked-out..and now it wont come one ....

                I have used 3 versions of this phone beginning with the Accompli 008 then the A760 and now the A780.The phone gets better every time.It is rugged and not fidly like some others I have used.The flip top protects the screen real well.I just wish Motorola would now include a WiFi functionality along with FM Radio and a GPS version for India to complete this already great package.If any one wants additional software for this phone just go to http://www.getjar.com/software/Motorola/A780

                I use a Gmail application along with The new Opera Beta version and Google maps , all perform flawlessly.

                    my phone was pretty good but now it is functioning well.i gave it to motocare but no response.it would be better if company service centers do a better service.

                        I had this phone for 5 months and overall it was pretty good. At times, when i stored too much stuff...it lagged a little (had to keep poking the screen in hopes it would go faster...doesn't really help). Text messaging was a pain since you have to use the pen n write it as oppose to pressing keys. Great thing about it is you have the option to dial with the key pad on the cover. My touch screen hasn't failed me so far.

                          The phone is great buy, but if you compare it with other features that are on other phones. It has a long way to go.
                          Cons:
                          1. Screen goes blank in sunlight.
                          Similar thing happens to P990 and other touch screen phones as well. Its no different. This is a problem
                          2. Ringer isnt very loud.
                          3. Touch screen goes bad after a while.
                          4. Not too many s/w for the Linux OS. You get ones that are not very helpful.
                          5. Outside buttons are not great and messaging isnt at all comfortable.
                          6. Readialing is a pain. Pressing the call button 4 times, get u to redial. That too press slowly else the phone doesnt dial.
                          7. Access to memory card is really slow.
                          8. Battery doesnt last long.
                          9. Menu access from outside is very limited.

                          Pros:
                          1. Cheap and stirdy.
                          2. Net expierence is good.
                          3. Good speaker to talk.
                          4. Camera is good.
                          5. Rocker button on the side of the phone, isnt very comfortable to be use.

                          You cant get a better feedback on this.
                          Its your take now!

                                    Does anyone know how to reinstall the linux on my A780? I think this will work, because it is not accepting the touch the screen normally, sometimes it works, but you have to insist on the icon, then it stalls on the next step and I cannot operate it. Thanks Julio
