We’re glad to hear DuraXV Extreme+ proved easy to set up, simple to use, and continues to deliver great battery life! But it’s not often we’re told that DuraXV Extreme+’s 100dB+ speakers could be louder; please ensure the source audio's volume hasn't been compromised. We appreciate your 4-star review. Feel free to contact us on Facebook (@Kyocera Mobile) anytime with other comments, questions, or concerns!-Elijah F.

Newer Version BUT Not As Friendly To Use...

Hi Bill. We know T9Word was loved by many, but unfortunately, it was not licensable by the developer. Our latest custom Prediction typing software is a significant step forward from its original iteration; however, we are aware that it lacks certain English-language honorifics and abbreviations. I encourage you to add commonly used words to your “My Words” dictionary. This way, typing 6771 will suggest “Mrs.” for example.1. Open a Message thread or start a new Message
2. Press the left soft key labeled “Prediction” or “Abc”
3. Find and select “0. Text Options”
4. Select “4. My Words”
5. Press Menu, then Add
6. Use “Abc” mode to type “Mrs.”
7. Press “Save”
8. Reply to a Message, or start a new one; then type 6771 for “Mrs.”
Please reach out to us on Facebook (@Kyocera Mobile) if you have any questions or additional feedback!

REPLACEMENT PHONE

Kyocera Customer Support - 3 months ago
Hello! The issue you described may have been a symptom of a problematic or aged battery rather than a defective device – so please be aware that we offer Kyocera genuine replacement batteries at solutions.kyoceramobile.com. Regardless, we’re glad your replacement device is operating as expected! Thank you so much for leaving DuraXV Extreme+ a 5-star review.

Kyocera Customer Support - 3 months ago
Hey Alex!Thanks for leaving this 4-star review despite the problem you’re seeing. Let’s troubleshoot and rectify this issue! First, verify your device’s Group Messaging setting:
1. Open the Messaging app
2. Select Options
3. Select Settings
4. Ensure Group Messaging is ON
Second, messaging conflicts can occur after switching devices. Recipients or senders using an OLD conversation thread (created or used with a previous phone) may encounter message failures. Be sure to verify that any important texts/images are saved before proceeding. Then request all members of the messaging group to delete the old thread and create a new conversation to ensure proper text routing.
