Verizon announced that it would be implementing Visual Voicemail on several yet-to-be released phones, including one known simply by the name "Voyager" but with a new color option of titanium which is a silver-gray color. It was then widely speculated that the Refresh was in fact a major firmware update, though this was not at that time confirmed by a Verizon representative. Several days later, users on internet message boards reported references on Verizon Wireless's website to a phone called the VX10000 Silver, leading people to believe that a silver version of the phone would also be made available (Now known as the Voyager Titanium). On August 9, Verizon Wireless released the "Voyager Refresh" V09 update to all Verizon stores. The entire core operating system has been upgraded to match the newer LG Dare. Rhapsody music support was added and some technical problems fixed. The interface became more responsive, with a consolidated Media Center, which later phones used replacing the older Get it Now interface. Most significant however, was the long-rumored addition of Visual Voicemail to the LG Voyager. However, despite past reports, the use of the service was not free. The download of Visual Voicemail application to the Voyager remains free, but a fee of $2.99 per month must be added in order to use it. The LG Titanium Voyager, is a moderately-sized phone, that can be used for voice calls, texting, email, Global Positioning System (GPS) and mobile TV almost instantly via MediaFLO (which is an extra $15 per month with or without the Verizon Wireless "VPak"). A data plan for V-Cast enabled phones without VPak charges for any data are $1.99 per MB. The camera can record videos up to 30 seconds to be sent in an MMS, or the setting can be altered to record videos up to the limit of available memory, which cannot be sent through messaging via the phone. The Voyager has been subsequently removed from Verizon stores and online store and replaced by the LG enV touch. The enV Touch is frequently referred to as the Voyager 2, due to the cancellation of the LG Voyager.
