Has anyone had problems with the LG6000 phone. I have swapped mine twice,
Sometimes it will just cut off.
After I swapped it the last time this one doesn't seem to get as good of
coverage or signal as the one before? (And yes I updated it through *228)
I use mine as a home phone too so I need a reliable .

Any ideas/help would be greatly appreciated

When you swapped it out, did they do the software updates on the phone
and not through *228?

Updating through *228 doesn't upgrade the software, that has to be
flashed on the phone at the Verizon store...

You are of course correct.

.... there have been some significant upgrades to the VX6000 firmware also
..... and yes, he has to go to the store.

Some of it is UI related. (Such as adding smiley's :-) and carriage returns
to SMS) <-- This alone was enough of a reason for me to upgrade.

It might be just me, but I think the voice dialing seems to work a little
better now too.

How can I tell if I have the latest firmware?

I have T60VZV08
I *think* this is the latest version. (Updated 3 weeks ago). Since they
have moved on to the 6100 I doubt if we'll see too many more updates for the
6000.
