My Motorola Hint is about 3 three weeks old. I haven't had any problems with it until tonight. It hasn't been dropped nor has it had any water damage. The phone has just shut off and the Motorola symbol is all that comes up on the screen. I've tried taking the battery out and turning it back on but it doesn't work. Does anyone know what i can do?
Well i would but its too late they are closed. The only reason i'm being so urgent is because I'm three hours away from my mom and she freaks out about not being able to get in touch with me.
 
motorolla hint

i have this phone also....i fell in love with it at first sight....but this phone sucks....it has so many problems....i can't see it lasting...it will be like the motorolla krazor...discontinued....i had my motorolla hint for just one day and it would power off for no reason....i could put it down and it would power off...also the messaging isn't quick enough....when you delete more than one thing at a time it takes forever...AMONG ALOT OF OTHER PROBLEMS.....I HATE THIS PHONE... i was at a hospital visiting and a lady's daughter whispered into her ear...the lady then asked me "my daughter wants to know if your phone garbage too!" i just laughed and said "YES"
 
stupid phone :(

My hint is doing the same thing except when the symbol comes up the screen goes blue ... my phone is a month old and its the crappiest thing.. i mean i noticed it freezing a bit a week ago but i didnt think much of it til today and i must say i am very agitated that it doesnt work at all :(
 
Ntelos Motorola Hint Sucks!! Hint water damage problem

YES! Or no... depending what aspects you look at. The Motorlola Hint is a cheap piece of crap. Water damage?? No... but that doesn't stop them from saying that. Apparently there's a strip of paper in the phone that turns red to tell them its water. However, after having my Hint for only about 41 days and no water damage or otherwise whatsoever (aside from normal humidity and other condensation changes we can't control), my send button stopped working entirely. I could use most functions with enter, but could not make a PHONE CALL. Ntelos said that I was unfortunately just a bout a week past the replacement warranty and would have to pay the $100 insurance deductible to replace it. On top of that, they can supply no proof of the water damage, pictures or otherwise. Considering I have been an Ntelos customer for almost 10 YEARS NOW and got the phone at a still high 2 yr renewal promotion of $100, this seemed obviously criminal to me. Well, the State Commission agreed and spoke to the Ntelos store I dealt with, made them refund the insurance deductible and send me a new Hint; and also to call them if I had other similar problems again with the phone or Ntelos. Anywho... got the new one less than one month ago and its starting to do the same thing again! Buttons stick on and keep sending calls, etc... the phone is junk; but call your state's commission and put in a complaint. They will follow up with it. This phone is a cheap piece of crap and anyone who has one should have it replaced for free(with a different phone)!!!!!!!
 
I had a rokr until it recently broke and us cellular couldn't fix it...They gave me the Motorola Hint in replacement of it...But it sucks! I'll turn it on and the screen will go blank; It wont even stay on for two seconds! And whoever is the last person that I have called, it will call them at random times, even if I dont press a single button! The motorola hint is a piece of crap and is a waste of your money AND time!
 
I have had the Hint for about a year and it sucks!!! I have had two warranty replacement phones and still doesn't work. I should have known better; the phone shuts itself off, camera and video lock up and capture image....
 
This phone sucks!

My hint is also a total piece of crap. None of the buttons on the top part of the slider work. I can't make any phone calls. It also will randomly call people. I will try to scroll through my contact list and it will randomly stop on a name and call it. I will try to read an incoming text and instead of opening the message it will call the person who sent the message to me. I have only had this phone for a couple of months and have done nothing to damage it. I absolutely HATE this phone. I'm supposed to be getting a warranty replacement, but who knows what they will try to say I have done to this phone. I looked at the paper dot in the back and it has little red x's on it. I don't know if this is supposed to mean that there is water damage to my phone, but if it does then that's ridiculous because this phone has not had any sort of damage done to it.
 
i cant get my computer to recognize it as a mass storage device and yes i bought a 4 gig memory card and yes i have tried to set it up both ways and still nothing. i've had this crapster for 3 days!!!
 
Help me!

this phone is so badd! turns off randomly and frezzes all the time! it also says my memory in my messages is fulll when i have no messages and my memory in my phone and memory card has way more space andi cant recieve or send messages anymore.. the paint comes off the keyboard to if ur a heavy texter like me
 
I have had my Hint for about 5 months now, at the start i noticed the shutting off randomly, but i had dropped it a couple times so i disregarded it. After a bit less than 3 months i was sending a text when it started writing out qwerty over and over if i pressed the t at all, of course i sent it away, i couldn't use it, it always froze up and no one could get a hold of me, well, a two weeks ago i got it back, and :eek: it was fine! Until now, qwerty has struck again, they should recall the Hint and reimburse people or something.
 
I've had it for about 3 months and it just broke. The screen is black, but the keypad is still lighting up, and its still vibrating. Ah I'm so pissed!
 
Crap

My Motorola Hint is pretty messed up tooo the little metal piece where you plug it in came out and now I can't charge it anymore. Will have to get a new one. These phones are really a piece of crap. Mine shuts off raandomly as well and I have a few problems that others have mentioned. Be careful when you charge yours.
 
if you have red xxx's on the little sticker does that mean you have water damage? or is it only if they are smeared? i have had all of the exact same problems as everyone else, it shuts off if slide it shut to fast or anything, i set it down and it will shut off, if i try and delete something it takes forever, and if i'm deleting messages and recieve one while i'm deleting others my phone will completely freeze and i'll have to take out the battery and everything. the screen will turn white randomally and everything about the hint phones just SUCK. and i've only had it for a couple months and everyone i've talked to says there nothing but junk...
 
Fucking phone! Not to long ago the damn keyboard wasnt working for me, but for some reason it started to work. This phone is FAIL! And every one who took part in its creation should all be dragged out into the street and beheaded! Every time I try to open the camera it gives me this fucking gay as problem: "Unable to open camera." FUCKING PHONE
 
I agree

I have this piece of crap too. Since May last year. i HATE it with a passion!! I charge it at night and it wont "recognize" the charger! It came with the phone! It charges when it wants. Now my G and B buttons dont work. And it only send the text messages it want too. I do not recieve picture messages anymore either. I also had it turn off on me more than once. And it will refuse to turn back on! I use the internet on it and always get the response "can not resolve host name" Its so frustrating! I feel like tossing it out the car window! Just like everyone else I thought this was a cool looking phone. I read the reviews and thought it wouldnt happen to me.. But it did! And it sucks! If you are thinking about buying this phone... DO NOT!! Dont waste your money!
 
:/

ah, well, my hint had been turning off and then back on whenever I sent a text message. it's been off for seven hours, and it's obviously not turning back on. taking the battery out didn't work, either. :xi hate this phone.
 
my phone went dead and i went to plug it in but it didnt come back on then i took the battery out and put it back in and it came on but the bottons on the front of the phone WANT work!!!!!! does anybody know what to do???????
