So I got my Q9m and have a couple questions.

I had a Data Block put on the line, but added the $10 Unlimited-IN+500 Pix/Txt Messaging plan. Obviously this didn't work with picture messages since they are sent/received via data.

I had the Data Block taken off and put the phone on the "pay as you go" data plan with which I will try to only use data for picture messages and therefore not get charged (with the $10 txt/pix plan).

When I send or receive a picture message, the tower reception icon in the top right switches to the two arrow data icon. When I'm done getting the message, it doesn't change back.

From that point on it stays as the data icon until I reboot the phone, then it will switch back to the cellular reception icon.

The icon I'm talking about that comes when data is used and then won't go away can be seen in the top right here: http://www.itgatevn.com.vn/pictures/...vn_0009391.jpg

The normal icon that I think it should change back to can be seen in the top right here: http://cache.gizmodo.com/assets/reso...007/08/q9m.png

What do you think is wrong? Verizon doesn't understand what I'm saying with all the icons and stuff.

EDIT: Also, how do I set a tone for receiving a MMS? Mine makes a noise when I get a text, but not when I get a picture message.

Thanks!!
