􀂄 When did the problem begin?
􀂄 Is the customer picking up a 1X or EVDO signal on the handset?
􀂄 Check signal strength.
􀂄 If a poor signal is being received, educate the customer on limitations of wireless service. The customer may need to try the phone in a different location.

Keypad Problem
􀂄 If it is the Keypad sound, check phone settings for Keypad Volume.
􀂄 If customer is stating that Keypad will not light up, check phones settings for Backlight.
􀂄 If one or more keys do not function, it is an equipment issue.

􀂄 If it is not ringing at all, check phone for ringer settings. (i.e. Is it on Silence or Vibrate only?)
􀂄 Does the customer have a headset connected to the phone? If so, remove headset from phone and check ringer. (Some handsets will only ring in the headset when one is attached.)

Charging Port Problem
􀂄 Are the charger lights lit (if available) or does the Battery meter on the handset scroll (showing charging)?
􀂄 If yes, the issue is probably not the port, but a battery/handset issue, see Battery Charging Problem.
􀂄 If no, check connections and try a different wall outlet.
􀂄 Use another charger (or VPC) to test with? Does the phone charge with the second one?
􀂄 If the problem occurs with more than one power source, then the problem will probably be with the handset.
􀂄 If the phone charges with a different charger, the original charger is defective, not the handset.
􀂄 Wiggle the charger connection in the handset port with a known working charger.
􀂄 If the Handset intermittently starts and stops charging, it is probably a defective charging port on the handset.

Battery Charging Problem

􀂄 Check connections and try a different wall outlet.
􀂄 Are the connections between the phone and the battery clean?
􀂄 Is there contact between the phone and battery ports? 􀂄 Are you having a problem with more than one battery? Does the phone work with the VPC or other charger?
􀂄 If the problem occurs with more than one battery/power source, then the problem will probably be with the handset.
􀂄 How old is the battery?
􀂄 Verizon Wireless recommends customers purchase new batteries every year. VZW batteries have a one-year warranty. Any battery has only a limited number of charges in its life.

Data Port Problem
􀂄 Wiggle the Data Cable connection in the handset port.
􀂄 If the Handset intermittently starts and stops connecting, it is probably a defective data port on the handset.
􀂄 Test with another data cable. Does the phone connect with the second one?
􀂄 If the problem occurs with more than one Data cable, then the problem will probably be with the handset. If the phone connects with a different data cable, the original cable is defective, not the handset.

Handset Gets Hot
􀂄 Inform the customer that under certain conditions handsets will become warmer than usual during the following situations, warming is not necessarily a sign of defect.
􀂄 Prolonged Talk time (more than 5 minutes)
􀂄 During charging (home charger or car charger)
􀂄 In very weak Signal areas (more power is needed to stay connected)
􀂄 Older or Aftermarket battery being used
􀂄 It is very rare for a handset to be the cause of excessive heat conditions, but if the customer is adamant that there has been a significant change in the handset temperature, then the handset could be at fault.
􀂄 Note: Extreme and significant overheating! If the customer complains of extreme overheating (using words such as: "fire," "smoke," "swelling of the battery," "explosion," “property damage” or “personal injury”), have the customer contact Verizon Wireless directly.

􀂄 Educate the customer on limitations of wireless service. The customer may need to try the phone in a different location.

Can’t Receive Calls
􀂄 Can the customer make outgoing calls?

􀂄 Check VZMap for coverage.
􀂄 If the static only happens when calling a specific number, the problem is probably with the landline to that number.

􀂄 Trees / Buildings / Basements, etc.
