Motorola V3 has gone quiet on me - help needed

Rykard

Hi,
I have a motorola V3 blue. It has suddenly become quiet when I answer it. I can hardly hear the person on the other end. They can hear me perfectly. Is this a known fault? It was bought about 13 months ago so is out of warranty...

How much to fix? Would a new phone be a better bet?

Cheers
Rich

This is indeed a known fault with Moto's. I had the same problem with one a while back and got some advice from Motorola .......soak it in hot soapy water for 20 minutes. That should sort it.

mine was fine. until my mate got drubnk and broke the screen for me. so now its a hybrid; black screen and keypad and a blue back! unique!!

What do you think?

For the record, I hate Motorolas. They've never given me anything but trouble. That small fact may have prompted my response. That, and the fact I'm a 5 year old in a 27 year old's body.

I've got 2x V3's - for the wife and me. Both of them are playing up. Got one rebooting every 5 minutes and shows the "Insert SIM" message every hour, oh and it loses an hour a day on the clock. The other dumps a brand spanking new battery every 2 hours.

I have reverted back to my ancient Nokia 3510i which works perfectly.
