  • I have used the LG KG800 for over 2 years. I was impressed by the phone extremely when I got it. Although my phone seemed to not be able to send an MMS or recieve and MMS.

  • I�ve been using the LG KG800 Chocolate for over 2 years , and I have never ever had a phone that people seem to be so interested in. It simply looks stunning with it�s glossy black finish and touchpad with the cool glowing red symbols. Here�s my full review of the LG KG800 Chocolate.I love this phone Read more:

  • I think the battery life is a common problem for all the KG800s. Also its keypad is another problem.

  • I need to know the following things about this set. 1- I have messages in my inbox and phone numbers in sim and in phone set. I want to transfer all these messages and phone numbers in computer through data cable but i not know the procedure. I install the software of LG (available with set) and try but not succeed.How can i do this. 2. I want to use the speaker but not found this.Is this phone is without speaker? 3. I have not found any group option in this set. Is there any group option in this phone. PLEASE SOMEBODY GUIDE ME.

  • Hi Guy, need your assistant to advise, i have LG KG800 and the problem is my handphone battery only can survive up to 12 hours, by right should be more than that if in standby mode...any solution! pls.

  • hi friends, can we connect web through phone to our computer by data cable

  • I have had this phone since the 8th april 2010, having inherited it from my older sister. Already I have found that the battery life is not very long, and that can get very annoying. However, there are some good things about the phone and the pink one does look nice. All in all, it isn't an appalling phone, but LG can do better!

  • go to settinggs press ok , then connectivity, bluetooth ok,set bluetooth ok,on- and bluetooth is on, after use disconnect off

  • lg is no1 . i have 3 years without problems and you can browsen with computer without instal program its simle removibal disk. try with eny new tel you need instal prog. you dont now nothing about this phone,it is great posibility.

  • first learn how to use the phone...and then comment...

  • i cant seting internet

  • Ive been using this about 6 months,it so sensitive to use,now my phone can't slide down,if i do that the screen will be all white,.and automaticaly turn off.,its hard for me to find someone to fix of it this matter.

  • set is overall very good , but it has specifications of old models , it has no new specifications like many cheap cell phones has , so i think lg should upgrade their models if they want to compete indian market

  • set is overall very good , but it has specifications of old models , it has no new specifications like many cheap cell phones has , so i think lg should upgrade their models if they want to compete indian market

  • ugly specs.. specs shows that it is an old model.. too bad..

  • looks so cute but has no SPEAKERPHONE!!! @.@ also can't do anything while talking except viewing contacts

  • I cant access internet,,,i dont know setting the browser

  • All is good but lack of external memory sloat made it as a oid model.

  • i dont know how to use the bluethoot. it doesnt want to transfer songs or mms

  • looks great. most stylish phone ever. battery life is really bad. altogether great phone!!!

  • i have mine for 3 years now and it works perfectly.

  • i got mine as a christmas present 3 years ago and i really don't all the complaints i hear about here. ?=/ my battery is still the original one, which works perfectly still. it never spontaneously died on me. it has a buttload of music space; i have 20+ songs in there! that's pretty good for a 2G. =] i just love my phone.

  • I have been using this phone for approximately 2yrs now. it is small & convenient, good pocket size, BUT the battery!! If I am on call for more that 10 mins it will shut down. The battery is no-good. I doesnt keep charged & will turn off on its own. I cant use the phone in the dark as the key pad does not light up. Whats up with that??? I recently had an emergency & the darn phone just shut down in the middle of the call. Gimmie a break!

  • Is this all true? or made up? Is it a good phone and will it last more than 3 years?

  • the battery life is poor it gives trouble to charge the bluetooth is really slow but is good for music it has a crazy base

  • ITs true Thats exactly what happened to me .Is there any way to fix this?

  • hi guys if you have ever had the problem with this phone of charging it and it turns off and never turns on or you battery dies and doesnt turn on? it is not stuffed there is a clock inside that when it hits a date it turns off and goes to the year 2078 it is a glitch and i had this sitting in a cupboard for 2 years finding it reset itself and worked again i have a feeling it may happen to anyones old chocolate so give it a go it may still work

  • the battery of the phone is terrible!!!!!!!!! also with the ribbon and camera

  • this phone is the best u dont no abut style its the best phone ever :P

  • This phone is really bad. It ~looks~ good, but that's all there is too it. The phone was terribly conceived and the ribbon cable that links the keyboard to the screen gets strained each time you open it, so after a few months it stops working (1 year if you don't use it too often). You can change it on your own, a ribbon cable does not cost much but it's still a pain. Oh and sometimes the phone simply shutdowns on its own. With no reason. And the battery life is terrible. By the way, if you have a non windows computer (ex a Mac), you can forget about contact sync. I'm not buying any LG phone anymore, I have had enough with this pile of ****...

  • ... i have this phone for a year its nice... but my problem now is the camera and the video camera is not working... everytime i click in the camera it will hang and turn off... plzzz help me find the answer of this.. plzzzz plzzzz..thankz

  • I am using this phone for two and half year.I am changing battery every year. Now I can't use camera and can't view any photos or videos. If it is tried it is automatically switched off and rebooting.I can use only phone calling. Can anybody help to rectify this problem.

  • can someone please tell me how to give permission on things.

  • i have been using this phone for three months now but i dont know how to minimise music when playing can someone help me my email address is [email protected]

  • you dont need any software to add data. Just plug in the Phone USB cable to the PC and the screen of the phone will change and phone cant be used, it will act like a thumb drive(flash drive). Check your drives the phone should appear

  • This phone's SAR number is 0.07W/kg in Europe. Do they still sell it?

  • it is the useless phone i am using as no shop keeper in mumbai has the usb softwear available hence you can not down load any mp3 music ,pictures, ring tones and other features claimed by you into this idiot phone. I have paid 10,000/-looking at the features but its shame on LG that none of your shop has any softwear to do the neeful. If now you have any shame left with you can i have the proper contact tel no of LG mobile serveice shop in Kalyan or Ulhasnagar where I can show the pc. my mobile no. 9323039403

  • I have had this phone for 2 years it is a great little phone. Camera is not brilliant but if you want a good camera, buy a camera. Everything else about it is great apart from it can only hold 150 messages in total

  • So y did you buy it and if you seriously don't like it y don't you sell it to someone who would appreiciate it

  • Whats so crappy about this phone? I don't get people they want a new invention of a phone and when they get it all they do is complain. you know what, do something else with your life than complaining about a phone.Eventhough everyone is intitled to their own opinion yours seems to be the worst one out of all of them.Just do yourself a favour next time you buy a phone check the features first than just looking at the model.

  • Best phone invented has everything a teenager would want besides a radio but so what that doesn't make the phone boring it actually makes the phone even better just listening to Mp3 has never hurt anyone. i love this phone its the best phone period.I love it I love it and I love it thats all from me.

  • The LG KG800 is actually one of the best phones invented dispite the fact that it doesn't have alot of memory and it doesn't have a radio it still rocks. I personally love this phone. I love the fact that it can sense my fingers without me having to press the buttons.So all i want to say is that everyone is intitled to their own opinion but mine is that this phone Rocks whit a capital "R"

  • lol dummy

  • this phone is serious crap!!! i wanted tis phone but when i got it, it had no good features!!i want my money back!!

  • I like the design. But key pads don't have back lights its very difficult to send SMS when you are in dark places. Very small memory. Disappointing!

  • I have this phone given to me from my aunt in Australia, the keypad isn't working, no matter how hard you press every key in it.

  • gonne use the phone as a target,that's all it's good for

  • I was very disappointed to see that there is no memory card slot in the phone. You can get WAP & GPRS, but if you want to put applications like Mig33, it doesnt have enough space problems. This was very disappointing

  • err... yea as cn u with every mobile phone lol

  • i was wondering if this phone works for verizon wireless too

  • can u put ya simcard in it ???

  • How to download themes on Lg kg800?Please tell me.My mobile no.+8801558537276. Thanks.

  • Ive had this fne for two yearz,and i think its a very good fne,havent had any problems.

  • I bought one used in Baghdad, after reading positive reviews about the reception. I am very pleased with the connectivity, the phone receives calls where most others will not, and seems to drop calls less often. Now in Afghanistan, I'm using it for GPRS internet very successfully, albeit slowly due to the infrastructure. Battery life sucks, but the thing was a year or so old when I got it. Overall I'm quite happy with it, for $150. Plus it has cool Arabic characters on the keys. :)

  • I no exactly what you mean about these rubbish phones iv had mine for about a year and the battery life is like...well, lets just say it does not last for more than 3 hours. i put it next to a magnet now and all the colours are mixed up... i am in fully agreemen t with u and lg should pull their pants up !!!! i do like the lg shine but not yet had a chance to get it yet. Is it any good xxx

  • It's ok if you don't have the installer with you. If you have the data cable you can transfer your pictures from your phone to your pc and vise versa.

  • i think its a good phone despite what everyone says...i've had the phone two years, its still working perfectly. n btw if u keypad doesn't light up you have it on powersaver mode. only downside to this phone is that it doesn't have much memory (esp for songs).

  • This must be the crappest phone on the market! I have mine for two years now. Battery life is shocking, had to replace it after about a year, and no improvement. The phone tends to "hang" switches of by itself, keypad does not light up, sms-ing is a shlebb, photo quality is poor (flash stays on like a flash light!) It is a good looking phone, but that is about it! I would not recommend this phone.

  • just plug in to your fone�

  • just plug in to your fone�

  • My friend recomended this phone for me and I might be getting it for my birthday. It looks like a great phone, I like the red touch pad the best.

  • How do you upload pictures onto the computer. It didnt come with a cd or anything. Can someone please help me how they do it? Thanks!!!

  • was cool when first came out not the easiest phone to manuver through

  • Messaging is annoying. Touchscreen can be a hassle sometimes. It's okay phone for just calling, it wil get you around for awhile as it did for me for about 1-2 years. Oh, and during that time i had to replace the battery. Overall, I wouldn't buy this phone again :)

  • i have that phone now and i am getting alot of problems with it and i paid good money for it to...and i do not have it more than a year

  • Got The Phone. Its AwesomeQ

  • yes purchase for show up.

  • Hi! I have the white phone and i had some problems. :/ The day I after bought it, i woke up and telephone wasn't working, so i brought to the store and they gave me a new one. Six months later, my phone has problems again, but this time i had like 3 stripes, the fisrt i have the hours, the second i can see the image, and the last one i can't see anything. :s I have to do a big effort to see the begginig of a message. :s It's so strange. :/ Anyone have the same problem as I have?

  • Battery won't hold charge>...My Son has had the KG800 for just over one year, He now tells me the battery runs flat in 4 hours after it takes it off the charger. I have purchased him a new battery $27AUS - & have charge it for 16 hours overnight- still no change. The battery lasts no longer thank 3-5 hours even with minimal phone use. Anyone know what the problem is?? Dave

  • Use Bluetooth to send the pictures to a PC w/ Btooth adapter or other phone with Btooth & working PC cable.

  • I think you should try nokia 6600 it's an older phone but its got symbian and it lasts.anyway its ressistant and it wont fall apart after one drop.

  • I have a Lg 800 Chocolate and its a nice phone in a way, there is some problems though, It can only take mxit up untill V.5.3 and that sux! That gold plated stuff for you Sim card gets messed up(says insert sim card) and I have my phone for 2 years now and its been in for repairs like 3 or 4 times now. This phone also have a problem with its software or something, it freezes and it switching on and off by itself. Futher on, the phone is cool. cio

  • Had the phone for about 3 years, took great care with it and it held out okay. Dictionary tends to forget saved and commonly used words. Will randomly but rarely switch off. Have two dead pixels on the screen. Menu can be a little slow and similar frustration is experienced with the touch pad. Not a durable phone, is wearing on the back and the chrome ring is flaking away. No speakerphone a downside. Small internal memory. Slider starts to scratch. I did like the size of the phone, very sexy attractive phone, however the buttons are losing their sensitivity and need to press with force. Easily navigated menu and neatly organised home screen.

  • the lg choclate is a nice phone but i am not happy about the megapixel on the phone .

  • i have had this phone for almost 2 years now and i must say that its been working wonderfully. i just wish it had a radio!!! it would ve been like an icing on the cake!

  • i have had this phone for almost 2 years now and i must say that its been working wonderfully. i just wish it had a radio!!! it would ve been like an icing on the cake!

  • My phome did not come with a software CD. I would like to be able to download and save my pictures directly to my PC but cannot. My phone company wants me to download to their site first and then I can save on my PC after I upload to their site. The catch is that it cost me 50 cents for evry picture. My question is there a site where i can download sotware so I can use my USB cable. It came with the USB cable but any good to me without software. Thanks Ivan

  • I have exactly the same problem with the screen - for no reason it turns white. The phone wasn't used frequently so I think it is just not of high quality.

  • wow, it looks like this phone is not very popular, i must say i really liked this phone but it is easy to break and get scratches on it, one drop and you will probably see a mark. i highly recommend that you dont drop the phone more than once because i did that and now the screen on my phone doesnt work all it does is go white when you turn it on. beside's from that i reckon it was a fairly good phone.

  • i have Lg Kg 800 my phone is working nomally good but when i like to use its blutooh for brosing net on my pc it restart mobile so i would not be able to use net i cant understand that whats the problem

  • please i have lg kg800 but i can not use to browse in my country through gprs help me please.

  • I am looking to buy a new phone! Can anyone suggest, is this phone worth buying. I dont need some extra camera in the phone, or mp3 player, all I need is a cell phone, I can use without major problems for some time, and yes...I'd like the phone to look nice! I am "gentle" on using the phones, so I suppose it can last for a while! Any advice, regarding this or some other phone???

  • i love my phone cause its pink and has a good memory the thing is it have a loud sound for music but accept from that i love it .xx

  • This is a nice phone bt my problem is, I struggling to download MXit and dont know what to do anymore. Can someone help plz

  • ya once more, when u call u can't speaker out=( that's very bad!

  • hmmm..i'm using this phone for 1 year and found many problems..baterry very bad!! I'm using for call with full battery then 2 hours laters the baterry less 3 sticks..then the signal nt quite good:( and memory doesn't have out memory..and the camera..quality nt really good..rarely shutdown itself.. the point I'm dissapointed with this phone

  • I have the kg 800 and i am batteling to load mxit on it any help please

  • Is it possible to update the phone and make it a speakerphone?

  • I use this mobile phone since 2006 and Im very satisfied,there is only one problem you should be very smooth to use it.

  • whoops. that last post was in reply to Philippe.

  • I've had the north american version (tg800) and have been using it for over 14 months with very little problems. For one week whenever I used my camera half of the screen went a little pixelated. Other than that the antenna began to get a bit of static, however nothing noticable unless I was using a wired headset. I even dropped it about six times and once from about 4 feet up onto concrete. Still worked great! I'm not too sure what other people are complaining about in terms of the mp3 player. It's basic and it functions quite well I found. I can fit about 40 songs encoded in AAC at 96kbps. AAC also sounds the best. (Trust me I've tried with m4a at 48kbps, wma at 64kbps, mp4 at 96kpbs and mp3 at 96, 128, 160 and 192kbps and to my ears aac really does sound the best) My only gripes are It scratches really easily and the battery life is mediocre. It is also extremely easy to change it's housing, which I did just recently and looks and functions as good as new now. I love this phone and I hope to get another 14 months of use out of it! My only suggestion to anybody would be to simply carry an extra battery with you. If you have any problems with the screen, it could be the flex cable inside of it, I've read they can be faulty, there is a great video on you tube that gives you a detailed demonstration on how to replace it. (they only cost like $20cdn on ebay) I also used this video to change the housing. Oh ya, for uploading java, you do need a .jad file. If you go into the program files / lgcontentsbank config.ini folder, change EXIST_JAVA=N to EXIST_JAVA=Y. Change MODEL_NAME=xxxxxx to MODEL_NAME=KG800 i'm guessing in your case. then under program files / lgcontentsbank / contents create a new folder and name it "Java". Copy your jar and jad files to the Java folder and make sure the .jad file ends with "MIDletX-LG-Contents: KG800"

  • how can i get the code and the screen. is't in twone

  • Hi, I've had this phone for a week now, and tested it on multiple levels. One of the first things I noticed was the easy handling in the touch sensitive keys...you only need to get used to it...what I've seen in some reviews, the fact that you had to press multiple times seems rubbish..you just need to get a hand to it. I've also seen complains on the music player... I have had no problem with any songs, not even with variable bitrates (as i've seen complaints). The one thing I've encountered was the unsupported .jar files (aka games and such). I've not yet tried a direct link with a .jad file but the chance that would solve the problem is slim. On the very dissapointing level..is the lack of a card slot and 3g network. LG has put these features on multiple phones, older ones and surprisingly...they couldn't find a way to implement that in this otherwise wonderful cellular. Design. On this level, the LG crew performed above any expectations. Then slick slide phone, with it's "delicios" name proved to be a wild card worth playing. The touch sensor buttons are obviously another big plus. The small dimensions also bring the "chocolate" on one of the best looking phones on the market. Also to be mentioned, the price/quality raport is good if not best. In the end we can say that yes, it could have been better, but what we have is enough. I give it an overall 8.8, with it's most important minus being the lack of a memory card slot. Thanks, best regards, Philippe from Romania ;)

  • i cant call because of max call exceeded and i can not fix it. its not a friendly user.

  • d battery life is very weak but d fone rel bes it does look rel sexy and thing wam2 alyuh ppl alyuh rel sad da wa happen

  • Yes what you said correct. Battery life is very very poor. Service also not good. It is wast buying this phone.

  • hiya peeps! we just wanted 2 say that this fone is quite gd, but the MP3 player doesnt preform well on sum songz as it does 4 other songs. we have had this fone for 10 months. its hardwaring cuz it still works perfectly after dropping it millions of times!!! i (georgia) have this fone in hot pink, and katie has it in lilac. thnk u 4 reading our comment! loadza luv, georgia (~'_'~) x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x x and katie (*^_^*)(*^_^*) o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o

  • hey does any one know how to attach pictures to contacts????? phealease help!!!

  • is there a way to make this phone receive pics and access the internet through at&t when unlocked?

  • Here are some things that bother me a lot about this phone: Music player can't be set to run in the background, poor battery life, file manager is very dull, slow camera, no playlist, voice recorder only last 20 secs!! among others! Don't buy it!!

  • this phone's style is pretty nice, but the battery life is reallyyy bad!! it says here that it has a talk time of 6 hours, and standby of 200 hours, but for me, my talk time is like 5 min at most, and when i use any of the functions, it drains the battery within 10 minutes.

  • is this phone any good?

  • it is a nice good looking cell phone but it consumes to much battery

  • this is to any of the people that find this phone very attacting and are planning on getting this phone... i strongly advise you not to get this phone because ive had it for about a year. these are the problems i have: not being able to charge, screen turns negative, screen turns blank, slide gets stiff, turns off for no reason, horrible battery life, and the touch pads and the side keys are so sensitive when it is in my pocket it just goes into browser. on the internet this phone looks very good... but when you actually get to see it... it looks like crap...if youre buying it... good luck overcoming your hatred for it..

  • how can i save my msg on the sim?plz help

  • my did not come with memory card.is it the same with other lg800 phones?

  • Bad design IMO I own one of these and i find it to be rubbish. The touch screen is heat activated I believe, either way, sometimes it goes crazy. It is nearly impossible to write a text message on it quickly due to keypad aswell.

  • hey does anybody know where can i put the games in the folders that are seen when you connect your phone to the pc? thanks

  • i really like thisnphone but can any one tell how is it

  • yes,the fone cmes wth usb cable and drivr(software).you n3d tht.

  • Yes, you need the USB cable to connect.

  • this is a bad,bad phone very nice looking but very poor performance, i work in the industry and its nothing but trouble, if u want lg go with the viewty ir the kc550

  • I also luv the kg800. i have no problems with it.There sould be blacklights on the touch screen and key pad, if not then theres obviously something wrong with it, check ur settings to make sure everything is set up right or return the phone.

  • the reason why you cant text is bc u didnt have ur phone unlocked,take it to ur phone provider and they will ullock it 4 you.

  • I don"t know how to connect pc with this phone i don"t remember if it has cabel to connect!!!

  • if it sais error when you try to sent texts , the reason is when you type in the phone numbers area code such as in newfoundland you have to put in 1-709-***-**** (*= randome numbers)

  • This phone is an absolute disaster! If anyone thinking of getting one don't waist your money. And for all of you who "love it" you either never had a real phone or don't want to admit that you bought crap.

  • How much are the chocolate phones.

  • when i send a text it says: 'error sending message' but i can still recieve them and i can still phone people. how can i fix this problem because i realy need to be able to text on my phone?????????????

  • when i send a text it says: 'error sending message' but i can still recieve them and i can still phone people. how can i fix this problem because i realy need to be able to text on my phone?????????????

  • can sum1 please tell me how many minutes can the voice memo on the LG KG800 hold? can it hold only like 5 min. or more or less? SUMONE PLEAZE TEXT ME THE ANSWER AT (209)-769-8014 !!!!

  • it actually depends on the quality of your photos and videos that you want to put on there. mp3's in general will take like 4.5 MB each song so you are looking at 45 MB of space taken up already by those songs. pictures that i have are pretty nice quality and are about 1 MB each so that would make it OVER the amount of space available. i suggest getting a microSD card. get a 128MB. they dont cost that much. only like $15 or less

  • To turn the backlight on for the keypad, you need to go to Settings, Power Saving, Off. That should work, and try Settings, Display, Bightness and turn it to 100% might help.

  • i have got this phone i hate it because it freezers all the time i dont even have it a year as yet and it gives me so much of problems i would never recommend any to get a phone like this

  • HELP HELP HELP HELP HELP...... please answer my question. will this phone's memory be a problem for me. i want to store 10 mp3 songs, 30 photos, 10 min video and i should at least have 5 megabyte left. how much memory will it take to store all those things that i wanted. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE.... ANSWER

  • Wot I did wos I connected my phone into my computer and then i found my phone in the 'removable disk D:' option from the 'my documents' menu. This is your phone. If you have Musicmatch jukebox then brill, 'cause you cn then upload a cd and pick ur favourite songs, copy and paste into the 'music' folder in 'removable disk D:' option. If not download some songs from the net and copy and paste into your music folder. And Hey-presto, you have amazing MP3 songs! :D

  • LG wouldnt assist you 'cause you're Malawian? If I had that problem with LG I would consider that a racial offence hun. Hope they did help you though!

  • It started with cold weather,you just slide him out and it restarts. After 10 months of using it, problems with touch screen buttons are started to bug me. So at the end i lost him in Greece :(( It's not a bad phone,but i strongly recommend you to save your guarantee blank!

  • I really like my LG phone, though i have to admit there is a few problems i have with it - 1) When I selected 'Ring&Vibrate' for my call type, it vibrates but the ringtone takes about 30 seconds to play. 2) The camera can become fuzzy. 3) The battery is terrible - i have to charge it everyday. 4) When i have no signal my phone switches off randomly. 5) The space button doesnt work when im texting someone - I have to press down on it severely to make it work. 6) The lighting on some of my photos are rubbish. 7) Ditto the videos. 8) The game Sudoku is crap - iv played it 23 times!!!!! Apart from that my phone is really good and offers everything you need. I have all my favourite songs on my MP3 and managed to - at last - transfer a video onto my phone, and i have really cool wallpapers from coolbuddy.com! I have had this phone for over a year and i intend to keep using it until it eventually dies out.

  • excellent phone love it

  • had the phone for a year and seven months now.. the phone was great until two months back.. the battery power is very poor and no back up is available.. the phone looks lovely although...

  • just bought this phone and its great. i admit at first its hard to get used to but once youve tried it its brilliant. only down side is theres no voice record to send in messages.

Do you have an idea what i can do??????

  • I bought this phone, and personally I think it looks and works very well as do my friends. Maybe people who left messages saying it is "a waste of money" don't know how to use it properly because I do and it work efficiently for me.

  • You have to download your provider MMS and WAP profile to the phone.I suggest you to call Customer Care to help you. Usually, you can do it directly from provider site...

  • I got the pink version for my mother , it looks gay but I hope it works fine. It has all a 50 year old woman needs in a phone.

  • I got the phone unlocked and my carrier is t-mobile, the phone works fine, but doesn't allow me to send mutimedia messages. Everytime I try, it says "error sending message." does this happen to others and is there a way I can get it to work???

  • plz dony buy this phone itz waste of money although it looks good but itz very bad in features.recently i sold it for rs2600 really itz waste of money users havin it throw it in ur dustbin

  • Me again!!!! This phone is still one BIG joke that I unfortunately made the mistake of buying! I recently got offered another one, FREE, and I SAID NO F***!!!! I'm without a mobile at the mo, but even that is better than owning this ridiculous piece of crap tech. I WILL NEVER PURCHASE lg products AGAIN! Piece o' SH** I cant wait to get my hands on the Sony Walkman series. Wayhay!

  • this phone is a peice of crap switches off 4 no reason not much memory n battery crap i should never have paid $300 4 this phone!!! but now i am gettin a samsung wicked phone trade it ur crap lg n get a gud samsung worth ur money..

  • @Anonymous Don't you think your comment is a little strong? The phones has its ups and downs but it's not that bad! And I have perfect quality and service in my location. Perhaps it's just where you use the phone that it doesn't get service.

  • @Conor The LG KF510 is a lot alike it, but it might just be like having the same phone twice. I think this phone is brilliant! I love the touch pad, and it is indistructable, becase I have dropped it about ten times, and one time my mum left it in a car ark over night, and it worked perfectly the next morning!

  • Dis is the best phone ive had for years! ok the battery is sort of crap nd my virgin options in the tools menu disappears from time to time but dis phone has everything i need! Hip Hip Hooray for LG!! :)

  • i have this phone since a year, but i dont understand it! Do you know if there's a way for me to transfert all the text messages that i have and queep them? Thank!

  • This phone is GARBAGE! I was stupid and traded my MOTOROLA KRZR for this, thinking it would be cool.. BUT BIG MISTAKE! The touch pad is terrible, my battery life span is very short, the back of my phone doesnt fully stay in, and I CAN'T STAND IT! My Music stopped playing for the headphones, and I have just had SOO MUCH PROBLEMS! Also it NEVER EVER has service! I can't wait to get rid of this, and NEVER BUY IT! Buy a MOTOROLA or a SONY ERICSSON! Just do yourself a favour, don't waste your time with this phone. It'll be a very much of an upset.

  • I have owned this phone for a year and it's been the longest I've owned a mobile, why? It's fantastic. The good: -Nice design -Loud ring volume -Easy to text The bad: -Battery life is bad -Bluetooth transfer is slow -Freezes ocassionally The ugly: -It's on Virgin Mobile -Touch screen clicks by itself sometimes -Easily damaged when dropped Well, if you want to buy it, DO! But I just don't like the LG menus. I am thinking about a new one, but I don't know. Any recommendations for a new phone?

  • Hey i have already 5 nokia phone and no one of them haven't WORK!!! So dont buy any NOKIA!!!!

  • This phone sux!! I've had it for about two weeks and im sending it back tomorrow. First of all the volume of the phone when you are talking is very low and i can hardly hear anyone when im in public. Then it wouldnt want to charge and for it to maybe detect the charger i had to be holding it the whole time...two cousins also have LG phones and in they also had to be messing with the charger in order to function..i had this problem as soon as i took this phone out of the box. Oooo and whats the deal with NO speaker??

  • LG has made a really nice phone this time, although it has been out for a few years now, I'm very impressed, I have had no problems with it so far. Very nice design I might add as well. There is a slight wobble when you open the slider, although other slider phones have why more of a wobble (Motorola ROKR) for example. Other than that it's a really nice phone, I would recommend it to people who want a really slim, phone that can easily slip in and out of pockets (Perfect for texting in class XD)

  • this phone is realy nice and smart.i have had this phone since decamber.but one thing i dont like about this phone is the the life span of the battery it self is not good at all.and i dont think i will use L.G again i will advise pepole to buy sony ericson because is the best.i was looking for assistance when my phone had a problem but L.G company didnt assist me is it just because am a malawian.and you cant assist me

  • Never will i buy a LG again.i had it for only 6 months when it started messing me around.Freezing was my bigest problem.The bluetooth data exchange took forever.Battery life is not good at all.Im now a proud owner of the Nokia N82.Lg you got a lot of work to do!!!

  • this phone is nice in look. but this touch screen is going crazy. another problem is everyday wants to charge this phone. I request not buy this phone. Any time, nokia is good.

  • I have had this fone for two years now and have been really dispointd. I have had to buy 3 dif chargers my battery clip broke off and had to be replaced, my 9 button fell off, and the touch screen buttons wouldn't light up. It rely looked great when it came out though. Just be warned it's also realy scrach prone. mwa good luck with fone searching I know i need it .

  • most "stylish" phone in the world..

  • I like the looks, but the features ae not as good as the looks. I can't for the life of me get the phone to vibrate. I have chosen the ring & vibrate option, it just rings. I have put it on vibrate only and dialled the number nothing happens. I don't like that the key pad does not light up. All in all not a phone I would recommend any of my friends or family to purchase.

  • this is one of the best phones lg ever made and had so much success in selling the phone.

  • OK, it's true that this mobile has the best design ever, but it's also true about the battery - it's too week.

  • I just got this phone 2 weeks now in a nice pink/purple colur. I'm really loving it. But, sometimes the touch screen dosenth work and the 40 missed calls and all, aren't true.I don't think it will last long, but so far, it's great

  • best design for a phone ever!!!!!! im gonna get it...even the looks just capture you..no phone lasts forever anyway, and they have apparently fixed up all the probs....so yeh

  • My sister and I both had this phone, mine in pink, my sisters in black and we both had numerous problems with it. Switching off on its own, blanking sreens and very low sound. Its a very attractive phone but as far as performance goes its not worth it.

  • i bought 2 on plans for me and by brother they both broke within having them a year it was bull the screens went green and discoloured and frezzing all THE TIME turnng off for no reason all and all uter crap i now sell mobiles and if any one suggest an lg i say they make appliences not phones trust me

  • How come if its so crappy you gave such high ranking for it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • i was thinkin about getting this phone but i am not sure after all these bad comments i thought it was a nice phone it has the looks but not the features i hope if i get it nothing goes wrong

  • Its a nice phone, just bought it about a week ago as 2nd phone. Just got to get use to it.

  • i've had this phone for about a year and i didn't like it at all.it looks very nice but i've had many problems with it:The main problum with this phone is battery backup. The battery was awful,the bluetooth very slow,It hasn't speaker phone and also dosen't have call confreshing facility. sometimes when i was getting a call there was no ringtone,

  • the phone doesn't have a stopwatch...

  • i've read tons of negative comments about this cellphone, but i, as a lond term user of it, can say that most if not all of them refer to "problems with the phone" that start with the user, if you could only read the users manual you could realise you're judging wrong the LG KG800. also, the touch-sensitive keys are only a problem when you are not used to them. too turn on the lights of those keys you should only press twice the lift side buttons (the ones to scroll up and down) and that's it, your cell isn't broken you're not incompetent for not knowing, you should have only read the manual first.

  • this LG stinks Iam with all of u

  • LG should not be marketing phones since i had mine here are list of problems i encountered 1. No Keypad Light 2. Poor Reception calls keep droping out 3. Straches and gets dirty very quick 4. The Touch pad is crazy and the worst of probelms it may have the looks but its guts are crap i have sent mine for repairs 3 times and new problems keep emerging

  • ja this phone disappointed me as well. i thought i was being stupid when i couldn't find the feature that lets you turn on the key lights - but there are none! the slide mechanism still works and i have never dropped it. the other problem is the keys start to get stiff as the phone gets older (i've had it for about a year now). i have to push really hard when i send a text and that is VERY irritating.

  • this fone is not good, mines will turn off for days and returns wen it feels like dont buy it!!!!!!

  • i bought this phone and resold it in about 2 week. I was very dissapointed with the Chocolate. The keys pads digits do not light up in the night, there is no speaker phone, the bluetooth is really slow and the touchpad can drive u crazy.

  • I don't know what everyones problem with the phone is. I have had nothing go wrong! I just take care of it(like you should) and it's treated me well!

  • I do not recommend this phone AT ALL. I have the Rogers TG800 one, and right when my warranty goes up, it starts feeling like it's gonna break. The slide mechanism is interfering with the video, and etc. Getting it replaced with a Sony Ericsson W300i... =S

  • I got my LG Chocolate second hand. As a result, I don't know if I was particularly unlucky or whether the LG is simply not all that good. My Chocolate will switch itself off at random intervals, it has a nice habit of switching on touch sensitive controls in my pocket (the result being my phone calling a very baffled person at the other end of the line) and also my phone can't connect to the internet, and hence can't download. It really is more for looks than performance I think.

  • i've had this phone for about a year and i didn't like it at all.it looks very nice but i've had many problems with it:the battery was awful,the bluetooth very slow,sometimes when i was getting a call there was no ringtone,although the profile was set for General,many times it just froze and i had to wait a while until it worked again.

  • i have had this phone since christmas 2006,i am pleased with it but the bluetooth is pretty awful. it is really slow and you cant do anything while you are sending or recieving. a really cool thing is that you can look, steal and delete peoples files if you are paired with them in bluetooth, only LGs and Samusungs can do that.

  • i have a white lg kg.it doesn't support browser settings i.e i can't connect to net.even my bluetooth failed to work

  • I was actually thinking of buying this phone but after reading all these opinion i dont think i will be buying it again.It seems everyone is complaining about the same problem. Thanks for your advice.

  • hello. i have a white chocolate phone. i bought is in may 2007 and i didn't had any problems with my phone. if you justtake care of it and don;t drop it on the floor. it;s "delicate" kinda. it atracts people. if you are carefull and responseble you should have no problems. :) good luck! bye

  • I have just recieved the new LG KG800 in the mail yesterday, and right away I liked it. I had been waiting for the arrival for 2 weeks. But, I started having problems 4 hours after I got it. The shiny, black casing started to come of of the battery. I'm not sure if any of you guys have this problem, because I can return it for a new one within 14 days. PlEASE help me!

  • its quite a gud phone.... quite delicate as it luks....need 2 take gr8 care of it...otherwise u'll keep complaining about it! i hve had no problems with it...i m having dis phone for last 4-5 months!

  • i would to by this model of phone !! what do we think???? it s a great idea or it isn t ???? tnx

  • I dont have positive or negative to say about the phone, other than its a very nice looking phone, the features look okay, its small (how I like it) . Im thinking of getting one but I am so confused because of the differing feedback. How can it be the same phone u all are talking about?

  • this phonee is not worth itt i bought it and after two weeks the number keypadd wass not lightingg I had to change it I have samsung j600 which iss definetly betterrr. this phhone has stylee but feautress are bad

  • ive got a chocolate phone, my friend has a chocolate phone and his girlfriends got one, and none of our phone has stuffed up yet. had it for bout a year now. everyone tends to exagerate bout every phone breaking in a second.

  • omg it's true!!! the screen starts to fail within a period of about two months!! if you plan on buying this model... make sure you have a warranty!!! it's soooo frustrating! 1. colors blur 2. screen freezes 3. screen freezes more often, only when open 4. screen freezes when open and when closed 5. screen cuts in half, bottom is white 6. whole screen permanently white!! this all happens in a period of about three months, and two months after first use!! even if you take perfect care of it like i did! be careful!!

  • I want 2 know can u add video to the phone...... don't really have time 2 keep searching..... read specs from almost 20-30 sites & all it says is that it accepts mpeg4,aac&mp3 but been only able 2 put mp3's on the phone please help n e body.......... thankx

  • The phone is good:)..i have no problems with him...work great

  • I don't know about all these problems people are having, but I've had the phone for over 18 months and my phone works fine. The battery life is cool especially since the phone comes with 2 batteries. The only problem would probably be the keypad. The touch sensitive keys do require some getting used to, but they're pretty interesting in my opinion. The KG800 is a big outdated now in my opinion and there are others out there that are probably better, but the phone is still a solid phone and a decent purchase even today.

  • My LG KG800 screen is just white. Want to know what I can do to be able to read messages on my pc because right it connected to it. Please help.

  • I also have to say that this phone is worthless. It's problems, problems, problems. Buy another phone.

  • Nice & slim, thats about it. The phone menus are clunky, as is the keypad. Its not even back lit (not on mine anyway). Texting is a truly awful, slow, painful affair. The keys are unresponsive & in some cases require several presses. Adding words to the T9 dictionary is so awkward it makes me shout out loud!! An okay budget phone, & thats being generous. If you have the option, go Nokia or Sony Ericson

  • this phone is the absolute bain of my life. had it for over a year and at first thought i could put up with the txt buttons being so stiff so txting took ages...but after a few months of having to switch it off and on again to make/recv calls, i'm getting rid of this lump of cr@p and starting a better life with my sony ericsson!!

  • This Phone is REALLY SEXY!! everyone out there should have it i have had it 4 three years and it is beast! EVERYONE GET THIS PHONE ASAP!!

  • I have got this phone for more than 4 months, and all i have to say is that i'm not regreted from buying it and it is a very beatiful phone and I like it. But the problem is that this phone doesn't last for too long as other phones such as "nokia does"!

  • this is the worst phone i have ever had ...it might be pritty bt it has broken more than 6 times and only had it 4 a year. do not get this phone!!!!!

  • The camera takes REALLY long to load, capture and process. Other than that, i love teh design ;)

  • This is by far the sleekest phone I've ever been drawn to buy. However, it is also the one with the most problems. It started off with little things here and there: the screen would blank out occasionally, it would randomly call people even when the touchpad was locked, and sometimes the touchpad would freeze all together keeping me from making any calls. I loved the phone so much at first so I figured it was a small price to pay for how much I enjoyed being using it overall. ( It's MP3 sound is AMAZING.) Well, I was willing to put up with the little problems -that is until one day the screen went totally blank. I still used it because the touchpad was fine and I went to the manual to memorize where each option was. I even knew how to text without a screen! But, not to my surprise, the touchpad locked not long after, and now, I can't do anything at all, except recieve phonecalls. That may not seem too bad until you're stuck at school in Pasadena (where tha traffic is usually pretty bad) after your 3 hour class was cancelled, and it had just started to rain. This MAJOR problem started on October 14th, of 2007. Why do I remember this date? Because it was my birthday. I've been having people leave my voicemessages because I can ony call my voicemail since if you press and hold 1, it will take you directly there. Luckily, LG did not set THAT feature into the touchpad! Anyways, once I have a saved voicemail from someone, I can press 8 to "reply" and the message system will carry out my calls for me. This may not seem too bad either, until you need to reach the person who's the 15th saved voicemessage on your voicemail. You can always skip the messages before it to get to the one you're looking for, but it will still take several minutes. And even then, if the person you're "calling" doesn't pick up, you can either leave them a voicemessage, or repeat those steps all over again. And if you have friends like mine, who hardly ever check their messages, it's not a good thing. Last year, I still qualified for the 1 year warrenty LG offers with this phone, but since it's an "imported phone", the warrenty does not apply. I went in to go have it repaired, and the price was half that of the phone itself, and even once it's fixed, there's no gaurentee it will not happen again and they're not required to give you a refund either. Before investing anymore money into this phone, I did some research and found out that a good amount of people who HAD this phone repaired had IN FACT experienced the same problems shortly after. So from MY experience, although the LG KG800 is lookwise, very accpeptable, its performance falls short of every expectation. Good luck to anyone else out there who has read this and still decides they want one. Who knows, you could be one of the lucky ones this phone does not fall apart on. As for me, I'm hoping for a RECALL.

  • The l.g chocolate has been about for quite a while now but it will last you up to 1-2 years it is extremely sensative and brakes easily. It stores quie alot and has a good look on the front covor. I would reccomend the l.g chocolate over many phones for an xmas present

  • I think this phone is a very convenient phone to use. It has the best look in my opinion and it's very easy to use. All in all this phone gets a 8.5 out of 10. The 1.5 points missing are for the lack of memory for music in this phone. But if you do not mind about music then this phone is definetely very, very good. I give it a two thumbs up! Nice work LG! Keep up the good work! Very nice, stylish, convenient, and basically just a wonderful phone to be having. Thanks LG!

  • To Raed Ghraoui.. I have had my phone more than 18 months and i got to say i have never had any problem whit it. Oh, forgot to say it has freezen maybe 3 times i think, no big deal. Alot of people and even I thought in the beginning that the touchpad would broke after a while but it didnt, THE TOUCHPAD STILL WORKS PERFECT! To the people who says this phone is difficult to handle and so on THATS BULLSHIT, if u cant handle the touchpad dont even care of buying it. This phone is easier than a nokia to handle. I would give this phone 10/10 because ITS A PHONE and have everything i need. By the way i have an ipod and a digital camera at home. Now about the nokia 6300 i got to WARN u about 1 thing. THE BATTERY SUCKS!! trust me man u will need to charge it EVERY DAY. Two of my friends got it and sold if after 3 weeks!! For me the battery is almost the most importend thing in the phone, NO BATTERY NO PHONE!! just read the comments in the 6300 forum and u will see. I would say go for the lg instead of the nokia or else buy something else! Good Luck

  • hello people it DOES have a speakerphone!! when you make your calls once the person is one the line with you pull down your lock button a push SPK. if this is not the speakerphone you are refering to then what is it?????

  • FOR MIKE! Use the CD that you received in the pack, it`s easy!

  • very bad battery backup

  • People say it gts frozn sometims i dnt rly know wt i shd buy the lg kg800 or nokia 6300 but the lg rly looks nice and hr in lebanon u cant repair lg phones so wt do u say if i take rly gd care of it and every thing will it gt rnd. or it will stay normal

  • Hey I have had this phone for almost a year now, I have been told its a piece of s*#t, but I have had NO problems with it. I work in a phone shop, so I will encourage you not to buy an LG, but Nokia, Samsung and Sony are GREAT!!

  • Just got my new LG KG800 but do not know how to download wallpaper or ringtones. How do I set it up to download. Can anybody help. The user manual does not explain how to do this.

  • tis LG is my current phone,i gat the red wine colour and till nw its working perfectly...therz no problem wit it...I uploaded at least 25 Mp3's on it and the sound system plus quality pic is awesome,,,,i wouldnt say its the best phone,bt its better than the phones i had before so haterz,plz kip on hatin...ur wasting ur time doin so BUY TIS PHONE

  • Bought one of these few days ago - lovely sleek looking phone, really like it but the bluetooth does not work if you have a bluetooth system built into your car. Apparently it only works with LG bluetooth equipment. Find this amazing given cars are being sold now with bluetooth built in. Looks like I will have to go back to a Nokia as that worked no problem

  • my mum bought one of these a while back and cannot keep signal keeps breaking up and cant send or recieve mms! crap phone!

  • Cost wise it is cheaper than any other more popular brand, very stylish, handy and has got plenty of facilities. Only thing is demonstration should be given to the customers at the time of purchasing. If company do so I am sure people like, especially girls, this mobile. But defenitly it has problems in downloading, low voice etc.,. But this is not only in this mobile in all brand also. Simply I can say It is good.

  • i'd like to know if the LG chocolate has a radio

  • This is the worst phone ever. I work in a phone store and I see so many of these phones come back with problems... fair enough some people buy it and love it, but seriously, about 70% of the chocolates we sell come back for repair or replacement. This phone is a heat sensitive lemon

  • In the past 8 months i have to replace this phone twice. It screws up alot. i have never dropped it either. The screen goes completely white, using camera freezes the phone and the only way to fix it is to take out the battery. Also takes the phone like 5 mins to get a signal again.

  • am very glady such a chance as been given to express you opinion about this phone. this shows you have your customer at hear. great customer service there. but the problem with this phone is that u stated above that is capacity for dialed, receive and missed calls are 40. i bet to deffer is 10 for each so please correct that statement you have ther because it conflicting.

  • This phone is so awesome, mine has fallen like 5 times on tiles! and it still works fine, color is great. Its a very stylish phone and i think its a great choice. And people who think its easy to break well duh if you don't take care of it! All phones can break! One of the best phones ever..!

  • Too be honest, I read a lot of bad reviews about this phone from this site. Nevertheless, i found a great deal and couldn't refuse it. Its sleek and stylish- people complain about the touchpad- well if you read any informatoin about the phone it TELLS you it is a heat sensitive pad. It has a lot of storage and is easy to use. I love it! personally, the stuckup people on here who are slating this phone for silly reasons, too be honest, every phone has its problems and if you want to invent a phone- be my guest. just be happy you've got one My only question- how do you lock your messages from prying eyes????? I could do it on my old phone but not on this- lots of phones can't do it- but is there a way???????

  • This is the worst phone I have ever seen... for the price it has NOTHING WORTHWHILE. This phone is for the fashion conscious who have no idea about phones. Get a life LG

  • This phone is not worth the money! It freezes, the screen turns white, and goes different colours. My phone has got to the point where the screen is ONLY WHITE.. it doesnt go back to normal, so i can;t even use the phone, and there no point on getting it repaired because the problem continues.

  • it's a dodgy phone i swear. DO NOT BUY IT! you'll just waste your money. my phone keeps freezing, everytime i open up the slide the whole screen turns white, the screen is divided into 2, the colours go neon? and i have kept it in mint condition, i always keep it in this phonebag and so that means that i didnt do anything to the phone to make it like that. THE PHONE HAS PROBLEMS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE!! I REPEAT DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE!

  • This phone has too be the ultimate worst phone made in the history of man kind!!!�.I got this phone in mid August it is now January and I have sent this phone in 9 times to be repaired�.I actually PRAY that the company would send me a new phone and discontinue the making of this Lg Phone�.Where do I start with the problems�To start off this phone doesn�t have a speaker phone for your calls!!!! which is very troublesome��when need are trying to multitask�Secondly this phone has 1 slot for the charger and the head-set and the usb port�.so you can�t do anything..when your trying t use your head-set and your battery dies your screwed�.Thirdly the battery life is like 3 mins�.you have 2 basically keep your phone plugged in the whole day to have 10 mins of talk time�at the end of the day I have to give credit to Lg�.for making the worst phone of the 20th century�.

  • If you're thinking of getting an LG phone that come with it's "normal OS", like the KG800. Do note that the phones suffer from a "time lag" problem, that is, the time will slow down after a while and you got to set it back to the correct time manually. This problem is quite noticable and I've experience it in both my LG G5600 and KG800 phones. On to the KG800, some problems I've encountered is sometimes, the phone will automatically restart for no reason. The phone will hang at the "Please wait" screen etc. On the whole, if you want features, you should be thinking about getting the Chocolate 3G (KU800) or Chocolate Gold/platium (KE800) instead of the KG800.

  • folks, don't waste your time on beauty on black it is good in design but not in performance,So overall don't go for this handset but black is always beautiful.

  • Delicate phone which scratches easily and has no speakerphone. I have taken very good care of my LG for the past 1 1/2 years but the back still has some noticable scracthes and by keypad backlight is dead. I guess the design is supposed to make up for it... As for the person below who says the battery only lasts 2 min before dying: this may be because you have been making calls while charging the phone. As I do no use the features, I cannot commment. Overall, The phone is very nice looking but you need to take very good care of it.

  • RIGHT!! u guys are talking rubbish it is a great phone ive had mine nearli a year and it has been fine nothing has been happeing with it,its a great phone its better then the samsung d800 and most of the phone its a popular phone and for me i highly highly recommend it! so u should get it its a great phone x plz buy this phone u wont regret it because it is that great plz buy x if u dont u will be sorry xx

  • this phone is so crap i don't know why people think it is so good all it is good for is breaking and i will never recomend anyone getting one of this phones if i were u i would get a samsung!!!!!!!!!!! lg cocolates r crrraaapppp!!!!!!!!!

  • Fashion phone of the year 2007! Love it! This is my current phone. I dropped it in a stream and it still works perfectly -- AMAZING!! A small scratch across the screen and a couple of chips on the side. I'm not joking -- seriously! Great phone, highly recomendable!

  • hi i have tried dowloading songs on to my mp3 plzyer on my lg chocolate but only one song can be seen how do you put songs on to the mp3? biii

  • If you like, I can punk the battery life. How would you react if I mention from its claimed "Stand-by Up to 200 h Talk time Up to 6 h "...all this to -60 minutes(in one year!!)

  • This is one of the crappiest phones to date. I used it for a year+ now, and I'm glad it got stolen(yesterday - & no insurance). It does absolutely nothing of note. Browsing speed of 115kbps????Please. Try deleting a lenghty sms...the function stops midway and you have to reset the delete funtion. Try clearing out your Inbox, nevermind the outbox, the system hangs. LG may have developed a phone OS to rival Microsoft's Windows OS. Try saving pictures and viewing them later...let me the 1st to congratulate you on a successful retrieval and viewing. I tried renaming mp3's and images. Sometimes they work, sometimes they dont. I also manged to find super-human ability by using the touch screen without ever touching it. Go figure! And no, my phone is/was still in mint condition. I have eyewitnesses to verify the fact, so no claims about me abusing the device can be used as counter argument. Let me continue to point out the problem with assigning users to their various groups...upon 'rebooting' itself spontaneous intervals, you will find that when viewing an entry, it will indicate one group while displaying a different group at the same time????I've tried everything to fix this anomally, nothing helps. I can go on with my list, my I think I've proven that this phone sucks big time. I've spent R3K to purchase this device a year back. Barring the depreciating aspect, I'm happy I "lost" R3000 yesterday. I will never prchase another LG product for the rest of my natural life. Famous last words right...I think not. I'm browsing for a new phone now, and Sony looks strong. P.S I have a co-worker thats looking to give her KG800 away. She's fed up as well. Another example to add; one un-named individual threww his Chocolate from a moving vehicle in utter frustration!

  • i had one for christmas and it is realy hard to use because it gets finger prints all overr it it is a nice phone to have no probs at all exept fingerprints happy buying

  • i bought it and regreted it, i have had it 4 a year now and it keeps on breaking.......... every person i know have had the same problem as me with it breaking.......... yes it is a nice looking phone but if u buy it u will regret it

  • this phone is good...to me...i have the wine one n nothing is wrong with it...its just that u other ppl cannot care for a phone thats y it is mashed up

  • this fone looks great. when i seen it i was in love with it. i begged my mum for it. i ended up getting it. but a month later it started playing up. the screen started doing all kinds of funny things like when i slide it up the screen goes whitee ? and the screen cut itself in half . and the top half cut agaiin. and its colour is terrible now. it green pink white and black .. what is that shit ?? does anyone have any resolutions to this problem ?? if so please email me as soon as possible. my email is . [email protected] Thank You xx

  • if u get this phone it will break, i can't even slide mine up without it freezing and goin white

  • I think the camera is pretty good.

  • Too bad nobody is selling batterys for LG so when your battery runs out you have to go buy a new phone

  • Please ignore the uestion about usb! iworked it out . I mean the one last posted Thanks

  • Someone please tell me how you get things on and off the coputer with it is there a usb if so where does it plug in becasue i was looking today in the shop but couldn't see it. Thanks

  • i agree with kate... i bought this phone because of its looks... but i'm regretting that decision till now... jus' dnt look at dis phone... turn away before its beauty seduces you!

  • This is possibly the classiest phone i have ever come across..i love the fact that itis beautiful especially in black. The phone initially was not about the features but more about the design so its a bit harsh to say that its features aren't top of the notch! I espcially love the touch screen as it makes everything a tad bit easier. The picture quality is not all bad in fact it makes anything look beautiful ask my friend Lerato, she would vouch for me! But jokes aside the phone isn't as bad as everyone makes it out to be..so go get stylin with the Lg chocolat..it makes everything else look primitive!

  • i have this fone nli 3days an alreadi i dnt kno hw 2 add music from computer 2 fone...it wont wrk...someone help plsss x x

  • im gareenting anyone who purchases one of theses will be making a warenty claim within 18th months there are awfull

  • I've used the phone for about 7 months before I started getting problems. The first problem I started getting was white screens and nonresponsive screen. Which was a rarity and was easily corrected by closing and reopening the slider. After about a month, the screen was useless. You could pick up calls and dial numbers if you're good at it. I ditched the phone and got a better LG. I'm never going back to sliders.

  • i was wondering the same thing!! i really want to get the kg800 but i saw the ku800 too, so i wonder what the difference is...

  • Halo im a guy from denmark i buy this lg kg800 and i cant put pictures in the phonebog so i can se hu is calling me....? I hope that der is help to get... Paw ....

  • is there any chance to put my messages on sim?! and how? pls help! :) tnx

  • It's the worst phone I've ever had. No, it doesn't have a speaker. if i want to assign a pic to a contact, the pic has to pe made 72*72 and also from the phone camera....it's stupid.....the stupidest cellular that will ever exist....I advise everyone not to throw their money on this phone....i guess nokia 3310 is smartest than lg chocolate........it has only the looks

  • This phone should be avoided, if you don't have it the reasons why you shouldn't buy it are as follows 1.No Speakerphone 2.Reception issues - my calls keep dropping out 3.The touch sensitive buttons - huge probelms react without touch 4.Easy to stratch 5.No email options 6.No explandable memory After this phone i am totally finished with LG better stick with common brands like nokia sony erricson and motorolla

  • this phone sucks ass!!! i had it for 4 months and the screen started acting up ... then eventually it went blank and i lost all my data!

  • my problem is; why does it not have memory card? apart from that everything about it is good and realistic. i will need the external cover or housing and the locker just after the battery cos mine has just remove and i cant find it.

  • my problem is; why does it not have memory card? apart from that everything about it is good and realistic. i will need the external cover or housing and the locker just after the battery cos mine has just remove and i cant find it.

  • I bought this fone a year ago. Until a month ago, i absolutely loved it. Now, the *, 0 and # buttons dont work until u press them about 20 times. Also the touch screen does its own thing when i slide it open. Sorts of presses itself. Worse, when i am calling or receiving calls, those 3 buttons * 0 # presses on its own and is very irritating to the person on the other end of the call. I will never buy another LG...

  • how to install internet?

  • hi how can i put internet in my kg800?

  • hi. this phone is the bomb digity... i cant belive how good it is i like love it...its better then da other phones.....their gay. hahaha is there some way of like getting it for free or something?? lol... i like totally like love it...!!!

  • hello phil, i was wondering about this phone. It has got a usb port. So does that meen i can plus my mp4 into it.

  • i have had his phone for 6 months and i have had no problems. it is great if you look after it.

  • hello i am 13 and considering getting this fone. I have herd from all the past commnets it is bad i i dont think so.It looks great and has got good memory. My freind has got it in black and as far as i am concerned it is great value for money. :)

  • i bought this phone about a week ago, and so far i havent had any problems with it , hopefully i won't !

  • I have a quick question. I live in the states working for a cell phone company. We purchased the LG phones but the model says MG800d but I've only seen KG800 and so on. The KG is the closest to the MG they are exact. But my concern is it won't work properly in the US because its a international phone? Its not even listed anywhere like its consider "Coming Soon" on the lgmobile.com website.....Just curious its a sexy phone thats about it...confusing...cant read manual in spanish.

  • I absolutely hated this phone, it is very hard to text and the T9 sucks. Even when you add words into your dictionary they do not come up again. When looking through text messages my phone almost always froze, after having it for 6 months it froze and I had too turn it off back on again only it wouldn't turn back on!! very frustrating. I don't think I'll ever buy another LG

  • i got this phone in white, 2weeks later i had to send it off to be repaired. i have put up with it now for 12months and sent off for repairs 7 times, i cant wait to get a new phone just undecided at the minute im thinging lg again (for some reason) the lg shine but would advise against lg kg800

  • Well I just got this phone.. and i've only used it once... coz im gettin it for a pressie 4 xmas. i tested it out nd i rekon it was pretty easy to use the touch navigation. the photo quality was fine, it looks so gr8, and i dont get ppl that always say its SOOO annoying 2 use the touch pad.. i rekon its simple. :) overall- i was almost NOT gunna get this fone, but now, im glad i did. :D i luv it.

  • they have added a silver one aswell now. its nice its only �50

  • I'm considering this phone and I really don't know whether or not to get it. I'll read a good recommendation, and then I'll see a bad one. I really don't think it's that BAD. I mean, I'd rather have this than the some phone with an LSD screen

  • i am shure that fone has 2 mega,not 1.3.the photos are so good...instead that the memory could be less but with memori stick

  • That phone really sucks, the control with the touchpad navigation is really bad, you can missclick anytime u are using the touchpad:) Its almost NOT possible to control the phone with the touchpad.

  • Well, I have owned an LG Chocolate phone since last December (2006) and I have to say for the first few months I was very pleased with it! It's a beautiful phone, I honestly don't think there has ever been a better looking phone! Being a girl, I like the fact that it's so slim and light, it always atracts comments and admiring looks and it's easy to use. It has also served me well, until about 2 months ago. From the very beginning I had problems with sound, it was quite difficult to hear the caller on the other end, despite having the volume turned up to the max. I was quite disappointed with the camera too; ok - so it's only a 2mp camera, but despite using the correct settings (and there are lots to choose from) my pictures were never true colour! Also the zoom function (supposedly x4) wouldn't operate above x2. However, being primarily a mobile phone, that didn't bother me too much as I have a perfectly fine 8mp digital camera! My main problem was the WSOD - that's the White Screen Of Death. Oh dear. After about 9 months, my screen went white whenever I slid the screen up, which meant I was literally unable to do anything, as the menus would obviously be obscured under this white screen. Upon sliding the screen back down into closed position, the screen would return but I'd then have x4 mini screens, very odd! I took the phone back to the Orange shop who said they'd be able to return the phone to LG for repair. Despite having a 12 month warranty (remember I'm in month 9), I had to pay �15 for repair and had to put down a further �50 deposit for a courtesy phone - a prehistoric Sony Ericsson T68!!! I am pretty sure that the T68 is not worth �50, but knowing I'd get my deposit back, I paid seeing as I didn't want to be without a mobile phone for 3 weeks - which despite telling me I'd have my phone back in 5 days, was the length of time it actually took. I mentioned the sound problems and was told that they'd get LG to sort that out too. I was soo pleased to have my LG back after several weeks of tring to master the T68! The screen had been fixed (apparently a very common fault, the flex connecting the two parts of the phone is broken by the usual wear and tear) but I was still experiencing sound problems. And that's not all! The battery life bars are quite temperamental, one minute they're full, the next it's empty and flashing and then it's back up to two bars! I also find that I'm having to charge it more often, I never had these problems before. So, my advice is - think carefully about buying this phone - sure, it's great to look at and it does have some great features. I have just cancelled the remainder of my 12 month contrat with Orange and I've just ordered a Samsung G600 - wooop wooop! x

  • yessss i rekomend to get this fone especially the white i had a white won,, loved it but it got stolen.....but i did have a few problems with it but i recon it was becoz i bought it through ebay from hong kong for like but it was a awesome fone......

  • I have ONE HOUR left to decide about getting this phone!! I'm pretty sure I want it, even though SO many people say it's total rubbish, ut Im willing to take the risk!! BUT.. what colour should I get?! Pink or White? The white is so cool, it looks awesome and sleek, but the pink! Geez i love pink hehe. Dunno if I would get bored with white or get sick of the pink. So tell me QUICK which one i should get!! PINK or WHITE ??!!

  • I have had this phone for about 5 months and so far i havent had many problems. i dropped the phone and after thta it stated shutting itself of, but after i took the batery out and and put it back in that problem stopped. i have also been haivng alot of "network busy" issues and oncationaly i wont get any of my text messages all day and then at 10 at night i will get a bunch form tohrughout the day. overall i love this phone, i find alot of its functions very usefull and i love thta look of it. i tihnk that alot of my problems have to do with the sercive... and not the phone itslef.

  • I am going to keep this phone only for 6 months. I need a phone only for the camera. So is this phone a good suggestion?

  • I have had the phone for nearly a year now. I like it but have had a few problems.Its been sent away but hasnt really fixed the problem. Not all the phone are like that ... My friend has one and hasnt had any problems with it ... so far!

  • you know guy's i had this phone for 6 months, actually i really love it bfore spacially when it's still in the market but now i have it it's gives alot of stress it's keep on and off, bright like silver light, hung off suddenly, frozen everytime i delete the message. i'm a phone collector but this is the worse phone i've ever had. from the 1st 1 week the problem started to come out and i brought already at the service center of globe but still the same...... maybe it's give's us a great look but be wise everytime you buy a mobile phone. i stop my sister to buy this phone coz they will gonna lost money for this stressable LG KG 800s Made in KOrea!!!!! anniong ha seo, kumsahameda to LG to release this beautiful outside but inside is raten phone in the market!!!!........

  • l think this phone is great and l dont mind other ppl sayin it has problems coz to me its FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!!!

  • It's a pretty phone and that's why I like it. But after a few months, mine started getting frozen and turning off by itself.

  • i have this phone for a year ,any idea how to remove the scratches on screen and restore the glossy body to make it look delicious again..

  • hii..i have this cell for the past 4 months...fairly gud mobile..gud looking cell... however battery is not quite gud..apart from it...great cell...

  • for all those have call disconnection problems... remember this phone is a tri-band phone. it's an international phone...if you use att cingular you WILL drop a lot of calls, because att uses 850 frequency this phone only has 900 1800 and 1900, that's why you have problems with calls. As for it turning on and off by itself, i had this phone for 2 years no problem. note: before you buy any phone make sure your providers frequency. Other wise don't get it, because you'll have problems.

  • its the sickest fone i ever had in my live i love it

  • in reply to the comment.. 'PLEASE HELP! I just got my phone today and charged it as soon as it was out of the box. When connected to the charger the screen glows brightly and tells me the phone is fully charged but as soon as I disconect the phone from the charger, it refuses to turn on. What should I do?!' you have to have the phone slid open to turn it on..

  • this phone is crap. both me and my older brother had one and they both started turning themselfs on and off when ever they felt like it after 2 months. my cousin also had one and did the exact same thing.

  • I have mine with Vf ON PAY AS YOU GO However I can't phone out but I can recieve calls. Any ideas how to make it work jonnie

  • I've had this stylish sexy phone for nearly a year now and I'm very happy with it. Despite the protective pouch being discarded within couple of months, no scratches. Battery last for at least 3 days. The only problem is camera - pictures are not sharp. Would recommend to someone, who only uses it to phone and text. :-)

  • its cute & tiny. i have 2 problems so far 1. The annoying ringtone wont change! 2. i cant add pix of my contacts

  • I think it the better celular, but I haven�t that.. thanks

  • In love with the phone, i have had it for over 5 months now, and it hasnt been giving me any problems. would encourage someone buying this phone!

  • i had the phone for less then 3 weeks and it already stuffs up its turns itself on and off all the time. most of the time i cant even use it because it doesnt stop doing it. and then it wouldt turn on at all so i sent it away and it still does exactly the same thing. it is not worth the money. it is the worst phone every one i no with them phones have problems with them..

  • PLEASE HELP! I just got my phone today and charged it as soon as it was out of the box. When connected to the charger the screen glows brightly and tells me the phone is fully charged but as soon as I disconect the phone from the charger, it refuses to turn on. What should I do?!

  • Jads I have had this phone since christmas last year, and I love it. I have had no problems with it. It has no scratches or anything and is georgeous.

  • I bought my LG Chocolate in May this year and I have to say that I love it. I would never change it and if I need to I would buy another LG Chocolate. I have the black LG. It is denty and cool. You can put it in a small handbag or in your pocket it fits in. It has nice features, such as MP player, photocamera and also video camera, if you get the software nice pics and stuff to send to everyone for every occation. Easy to use and battery believe it or not lasts for around 6 days and I use it quite often. What else to say. I have other 5 mobile phones before and this is the best ever.

  • Jads, this phone is a no go, it battery is reali bad, u play 1 video n ur battery is low, take 2 pictures and its low agian. and then 10 mins later it will be back up full so u never know when to charge. because of the buttons it rings people with out you knowing. and there is nothing special on it that you cant get else were!!!!! DEFANTLY DONT GET IT!!

  • that phone is single but is verygood

  • i can get this phone for 140$ us, but i've been reading alot of negative things about this phone, can any1 who has actually had the phone tell me whether i should buy it or not please?

  • i like this phone but i keep hearing of problems on it... ive had it 4 days, and i can only exchange it up to 30... plus when i call people i get a random message that says disabled... i dont even know what it means

  • i would not advise you to buy this phone

  • I am currently using the KG800 on my us t-mobile network and for some reason can't get the picture messaging to work is there anybody out there that can offer some advice??? Any help would be very much appreciated

  • I looked after this phone like a baby and it still had to go in for repairs after a year. That was a couple of months ago. Now the battery life is a quarter of what it used to be and the camera freezes every time I select it. It's all about the looks with this phone

  • My usb cable doesnt work, handsfree kid doesnt work since the day i bought it,and it cost a k v g full of money to repair. Otherwise it is a fine phone and very slick. but i will never bought a LG phone again - accully i think you must send me a nother one for free - i can't recument this phone and its is not the way i handle it i receive it like this - full of problems

  • Do not under any circumstance buy the LG Chocolate - I've had my phone for less than a year and it's back for repairs for the 3rd time. It's a nice phone to look at but absolute crap to use - can't wait for my upgrade - it's going to be the longest year of life!

  • PLEASE HELP i have a problem with my cable i've instaled the cable with the original cd that came in the box and my computer show a "usb error "-usb not recognized,but my usb works fine with my other phones and my card reader also i've instaled the drivers and lg suit on diferent computers..and guess what?! the same error what should i do where i could get new drivers for this phone or something ..atleast mass storrage ,bluetooth sucks !!!!!

  • This phone sucks so much! After only using it for a month and a half, the screen went blank. My friends phone did that as well. Apparently, it is a common problem for these phones.

  • Had this phone for over year, without any technical problems. Its more for the looks than the features. You become very cautious of handing it to your friends cos the touch sensitive is so sensitive that anyone else probably end up goin through menus without even realising it, or they mite end up calling someone! Predictive texting isn't as good as the nokia or SE.

  • They're a pretty phone and look the business, but the reliability is not great, but as you say how well you treat the phone does effect things... Some are fine, but from experience (i retail mobiles) i would say there is about 25% chance of developing one of the faults the other guys have mentioned even if you treat the phone well... Carphone Warehouse is releasing an exclusive LILAC model ready for christmas which looks great, and the warranty is pretty sound so they will repair any problems within 14 days anyway, so not a big drama.

  • MUST READ!!!!! RIGHTO- i need to know if this phone is any good!!! i hear people complaining that it sucks real bad, but is cos u need to treat it well? I was thinkin bout getting a motorola razor flip fone, but i dont really like them.. lol! i txt a fair bit.. speshly in the dark- DOES THE KEYPAD GLOW AT ALL?! i want to set msg tones+ring tones to my own MP3 recordings.. IS THIS ABLE TO DO THAT?!! without a fone i'd be lost.. so plzzzzzzzzz seriously tell me if i should get this fone. :( im so sad lol

  • This Phone sucks i bought it and it has problems sliding up

  • It's an awesome phone!

  • i'm thinking about getting this phone but i'm not sure cause i've been hearing some bad things about it.......can someone please tell me if it's a good idea......thank you!!!

  • can sumone pls help me....the keypad light suddenly stopped functioning on my fone....sum setting is it????

  • hey guys im 4m pakistan. if dis phone is heat sensitive den will it go haywire over here...

  • PLEASE DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE!!! i have gone through 2 of these phones in less than a few months because they all have problems. the first one, the screen would turn white and it would just freeze until i took the battery out. The second one, the battery didn't last more than 24 hours. Now i'm getting stuck with an old version of some SE because FIDO is sooo cheap. This phone is garbage. it would also randomly connect to the internet even when the phone was inactive. i had to get the internet removed because i kept getting random charges.

  • WORRIED Hey, I just got this phone last night, and i was warned that it has been coming back often because something went wrong, and i was told "maybe ill be lucky". Worry #1. Then i read reviews and everyone keeps crying about all the bad stuff with it. Worry #2. I have 15 days to exchange it for something else, but so far i love it except for the Internet thats on the main screen that i keep accidently turning on. (By the way does anyone know how to change that)?? I dont know what i should do. I think the phone looks awesome.. but these reviews scare me. 14 days and counting to exchange.. SHOULD I RETURN IT or SHOULD I KEEP IT?

  • The phone just turns off by itself for some reason and the virate button doesnt works i just got this phone from ebay by oemkings

  • I have been using the phone for about 8 months .there are various problem 1.network 2.sound 3.software .it starts functioning without any response. to add a photo to contact click the photo on 72/72 then you can add it to your contact

  • If you are wondering if this phone is the right one for you or perhaps you just need convincing then I would read the opinions on various phones from different manufacturers. Take the time to note all the faults highlighted by people who actualy own the phone. Ignore any that admit to never owning the phone. List these faults seperately to comments and operating queries. Compare that with say a Sony Erricson where people general write in trying to find out how to make the phone do a particular function. Having got your list of faults for each phone you can make an informed decision. You decide if you want a nice looking phone(The LG Chocolate)or something else that may be more reliable.

  • I've had this phone since november 2006. I have to say at first i liked it and it is a very stylish phone. But it does have a few faults. The main one being the battery life. I for one use my phone all the time. An after a day i have to charge it every night. Second is the memory. It doesn't hold alot on the phone and there is no where for a memory card. Third is the ringing tone is very quiet. Even though its on the highest volume. Fourth is now after the 11months i have had it, it keeps turning it's self of half way through writing a text messages and during phone calls. Apart from that it is a good looking phone but wouldn't advise anyone to get it if you use it for music, talking / texting alot.

  • hey.. well i've wanted this fone for a while, but after hearing these comments i'm not sure about it! i don't want to keep having to charge it, i want to hav my own message and ring tones, and i dont want a dodgy calling system, i want proper service (not crappy), and want a gd display, and the keypad needs to glow. i dont kno why but i still really want it.. :P give us your opinion PLEEEEASE. or recomend another phone 4 me. =)

  • ooh my goosh this cellphone is the best damn thing in this entire world(: hahaha i love it i have it in pink color and it's cool.

  • Well I've had this phone for about a month now n the only thing I like about the phone is that it's stylish. I have to charge the battery almost everyday.. even with limited usage. The ring tone is low, even when it is on max, also the message alert tone is low. N wats up with u not being able to personalize ur message alert tone. Whats up with that? I have other issues with the phone, but u know one thing I'm happy about is that I didn't purchase this phone.

  • hi , i have this phone for 1 year .it hasn any problem .i think its good and it has pretty design.it has only one prblem , its memory is low but i think its not bad and im satisfied with it. the best advantage of this phone is ; having two battery.when your phone hasnt charge,you can chang battery .

  • its dam coooooooool

  • ive had this phone since feb 06. - battery life is very short (need to charge every day or 2 days, depending how often i use it, which isn't often at all) - ring volume is very soft - message alert tone is even softer, even on max - you can't add numbers to existing contacts (it replaces over the number already in there) - the sms functions/buttons aren't that good - can't add your own message alert tones - but there is one good thing about it (it looks great)

  • its the best phone ever

  • The phone is pretty good but the only thing I'm worried about right now is that I don't hear the ringtones I set to the caller group, instead I hear the one put in my profile. If there's a solution to this problem, then I would say this phone is pretty good.

  • I had this phone since 1st week of August, it was brand new, and two days ago, the phone hang up, then i waited for about 10minutes, and it is still not responding so I removed the battery, place it again...and its not working anymore, even I charged it...it is still not reponding or opens..I really don't know what to do..since here in the Phillipines there are few distributors of LG phones...and few who repairs of course.. The phone seldom hang up like once in a week...all i do is remove and put back the battery..but now it did not opened...hai... i hope it does have a reset button like PDAs or easy to repair like Nokia...im so sad...i dont have money right now to buy a new phone...

  • I don't have this phone, I have an LG CU500. But to your question about LG phones in general....my LG is the best phone I've ever had (I think this is my 5th phone).

  • I have just read through 3 pages of posts. The common faults are: battery, keypad, and display. Having been caught out by this one the best advice I can give is to try to get your money back. That will fail because LG are not going to admit that they have a problem. Don't send it off for repair even if it is in warranty because the repairers will only come up with some lame excuse to exclude it from warranty repair, they will want about �18 from you even if it's just to send your phone back. Don't claim on your insurance because you will have to pay them an extra �50 to get another LG chocolate that's just as useless. So your next move is to accept the loss, throw it in the bin or sell it as faulty on e-bay for spares/repairs. Then get a different phone from ANY another manufacturer(even Alcatel). As you can guess, I am bitter and twisted and so so ANGRY.

  • Nice phone but I wouldn't call it chocolate, something else that is brown and sticky(not a stick) would be more appropriatte. I had this phone on the Vodafone network for about 5 months. Compared to other phones that I have had on the same network the reception is very poor(yes, I do live in the back of beyond). I have been told that some phones have signal boosters. If that's true, then perhaps this doesn't have one. Recently the keypad stopped working along with the display. Sent it off for repair and was told it was due to water damage. That was a bit of a surprise because it's never been used in wet conditions or dropped in water. Repairers say that condensation is enough to cause the condition. Insurance only want to replace it with the same so I called it a day and bought a Sony Ericsson.

  • I bought this fone sometime last year. It got issues...... signal is non existing at times, keypad doesnt light up at night, internet works as it pleases, BATTERY HAS TO BE CHARGED EVERYDAY!!!!! I really like the fone, thats y i bought it, but sometimes i jus wanna throw it aside!

  • Hi, I'd just like to say that I think this phone is awesome!! Well, I don't actually own this phone.. but I've heard on the grape vine that it's real noice!! What is with the people saying that they don't get enough signal? Um, hello? I don't think a $200 phone won't give you any signal? Maybe you live out in the middle of nowhere or in an unknown surburb without a Telstra Ariele? And what the HELL is with the people saying that they can't hear through the thing?!! HELLOOOO, people!!! DON'T YOU KNOW WHERE YOUR EAR HOLES ARE?!! Once again, as if a $200 PHONE (YES, a phone, a thing u can TALK TO PEOPLE THROUGH) WOULDN'T LET YOU HEAR YOUR CONTACT?!!!! Once again, perhaps it's coz you live out in the scrub? && you also talk into the bottom part of the phone.. I mean to say, I have a crap phone at the moment, and one of my mates has a $60 phone, and they can hear me when I talk to them through the thing! And they can get signal.. even when they're driving out in the middle of nowhere. (True story...) Okay, I just had to say that coz I think those people need to either treat their phones a bit better, or don't buy a phone off E-Bay or from the Kwik-E Mart or some crap store. And maybe they should learn where their ears are and how to use the thing. =] Bye everyone, xx.

  • hey. ive been reading a few of these comments and im thinking of getting this phone. is it worth getting it? is it really that bad?! or should i wait & find another phone if theres been problems with other peoples phones???

  • its not really a comment its more a question: Is the LG really a bad phone as people say it is cause i want to buy it cause it looks so slick nd sexy. and i desperately need a phone and i need a answer before the week is over pls. I need a phone that has all the features eg.internet,bluetooth,usb connection,enough space. so if this phone is not a good phone pls feel free to give suggestions on one that is but not too expansive

  • I bought this phone in Decemebr 2006 and I am about to hand in my FOURTH one due to contining issues with it. This phone is useless and unless you want a fashion item (which most phones are these days) forget this phone. There are reportedly software issues and issues with the slider mechanisim of this phone but LG don't want to recall it. Suffice to say, I am changing it now for a phone that actually works!

  • Hi, This phone is really nice and I would recommend it to anyone. I love the colour and the slick feel, oh don't mention the features is the best. So, go right ahead and buy this phone you won't regret it.

  • good fone

  • so r there light or no light on the keypad?? I called up LG and ask and they said the light is not very luminous, does this mean it will be very dim???

  • No light on the numberkeypad

  • Yes it does have light on the alphanumeric keypad...

  • HI, i have this phone too, but i don't now if i can change the message tone (from my gallery) if this phone have this option, PLEASE TELL ME. Thank You....

  • DONT BUY IT i have had this phone for about 3 months. the touch screen is annoying.The buttons are horrbile to text with AND the signal is crap !!!!

Especially since I practically [ACCIDENTALLY] flung it onto the sidewalk and there are no visible scratches and it works fine! Sure, it has it's set-backs, but what phone doesnt? Just a quick question... Anyone else having voicemail problems? It doesn't seem to work on mine...

I try to select a pic for someone when I'm entering their info (name, #, group, pic), but all it says is "PHONEBOOK PICTURE EMPTY." I've searched my phone and the settings, but I can't figure it out!

  • turn off the Power Saving

  • How do you turn light on the numeric keypad?

  • Is kg800`s numeric keyboard lighted ?

  • dodgy-pretty-slimmy-phone... dats how i wud describe this phone! I was so glad to received this phone as a gift for my academic result last year (December).. and yeah, i had this phone for 5 months (May), and its BROKEN! and now, it's on its way to get repair! I was so shocked that in the morning, the screen just turned blank and turned negative. Sometimes, the screen also divided into four. I left it untouched for another 3 months (August), and when i tried to turn on the phone, GUESS WHAT HAPPENS TO THE SCREEN!? yes yes yes, it turns WHITE = BLANK. I can only hear the *truinng truinng truinngg* (whatever it sounds like... =.=").. so yeah, it is a good phone, and I'm still loving it until now, even though it's broken right now... IMPRESSIVE but need to be improve!! I suggest to choose LG Shine..

  • i just bought this phone last week, i totally love the design, but it's feature are useless.i can't write any sms while i'm playing mp3, the camera is so ugly when you took picture at night. and the weird thing..when i sent sms,it said error sending message, but it was sent.and when it said delivered, it was not sent. OMG!are there any software update out there???

  • i received this phone for my birthday a couple of months ago. i had it for less than 2 weeks & it had already screwed up on me. the screen turned white every time i slid it up so i couldn't take photos, txt, dial any numbers or receive any calls - it was so annoying! DO NOT get LG phones, they may look great but their functionality is inadequate; really poor. right now, i'm thinking of getting either the Samsung U700, Sony Ericsson S500 or W910 =]

  • i got my phone last night and no one can hear me talk? Does anyone know how to fix that?

  • I brought this phone today. If you say you can have speaker, how? and im also wondering, is it possible to read recieved text messages while talking on the phone? i can only write them.. And does anyone else have trouble with the volume while talking on the phone?? Thanx

  • I thought I was the only one with major hearing issues! And Ive only had this horrible phone for 4 months :(.... Worst decision ever!

  • Hey- i odn't get you all. This phone has been working great for me, you ppl must treat it really bad. They are fragile, you can't just throw it at the ground pplz. My old phone used to have a blank white screen to, it's not just this phone, (though it hasn't done this to me)... And you pplz must be deaf cause my speaker works just fine. The alarm doesn't shut up! and sending and recieving mp3s is easy! I have had this phone for about 2 months and its still working fine. I would reccomend this fone. Its looks wicked and works great if you take care of it. Anyway Cheers.

  • guyz., i nid specific answers, is it good or bad?, phone?.,

  • The phone is all right if you want a handset that looks good. I have had my phone for almost a year and my most major issue is the inability to hear anything when making calls at times which is fixed after turning the phone off and back on. (Technically, something that I shouldn't even have to do.) The phone cannot have MMS or SMS notification sounds changed at all, and pictures sent from another handset to your handset cannot be used as a full-screen wallpaper. Only photos taken from the handsets built-in camera will be displayed as full screen. I do not hate the phone, but I do feel more unimpressed with it by the day and does make me pay more attention to the features my OLD phone used to have, or newer phones with even more features.

  • This phone is great, but one problem i've experienced in it is that when you save a contact, it provides us with a picture on every contact; but it actually never works...! so what now? What's the benefit???

  • Re XUnknown: u r right XUnknown! i also recommend it. it doesnt work well but it can also can mantain some mp3. ty so much ^^

  • well ive had this phone for about 6 months it has worked great up to now but recently the past 2 weeks ive been having HUGE problems the screen freezes the red touchscreen buttons dont work the camera is completely ruined (just shows solid green screen) it freez's and turns off AND I HAVNT DROPED IT im going to go this weekend and go back to the store

  • Oh, and i recommend ALOT this phone. Doesnt have Much memory but at least u can put 40 Songs, Who hears 40 Songs in a day?? Idk, but not me.... U can easely change the Songs, The Software is really crap so , its better to do it DIRECT. I can tell u how to put Java Games and Apps on it. Very easy. LG Made a Good Job with this phone, dropped it accidentally 3 times and absolutely nothing happened. Love this Phone. Stylish.

  • Umm, Well, first, take your phone to verizon, and tell them you want the Newest FirmWare for your chocolate. They will friendly install it and thats it! (Mine was with the newest FirmWare). (On messages u have to use default ringtones) I think. Oh, u can also download the firmware at SoftPedia. (It A LOT BETTER if they install it at Verizon because if it ruins, they will give u another.... they broke it, they pay it. =D

  • How do you get a picture up with a contact?

  • how do u get customize ringtones without internet?

  • hi i have this phone for 3 months and i haven't had any problems with it. it's great! money well spent!

  • Disappointing..really.I've had this phone for almoust 2 months and i have problems with the calls, can't hear it when it dials.The design isn't everything :(

  • its strange as people have mostly put bad comments i think it varys on the place you bought i tfrom as mine has never had any problems never frozen or the battery is great but all you lot say this is the worst fone its si not a mans fone i fiink because it is for smmall fingers to touch the touchpad does anyone agree?

  • well actually i have had this fone quite a while and i have been very impressed as its has suffered war and not one thing has been wrong with it ! it has falling from my window onto the pavement froma 2nd fllor flat and hasnt let me down once although i fink thst therew should be a mp3 on it and accept from that i finnk its brill

  • This is a useless phone!! ive had to take it back 3 times already and i havent even had it a year!! it freezes and turns off, the colour has become all smeared (and i dnt even drop my fone) and you can hardly hear out of it!! its terrible lol DONT BUY IT!!

  • To UNKNOWN!! If you know how to get speaker phone and different ring tones for messages can you explain how to! Because ive had the phone for a few months and mine cant! By the sounds of it neither can anyone else. so it would help alot

  • I am very conffussed, i bought this phone yesterday, (Kg800) Withouth Memory Stick Slot. People and this review said it has not SpeakerPhone, IT HAS! People said you cant change message ringtone, YOU CAN. People said that you cant send Mp3 from the folder, U CAN! Why are u telling this? I already made the things u said u ''cant'' do........ Really Strange......

  • its good. yet not successful. it sometime switch off unknowly while on work. i thing its a good for for u if all the problems has been solved and a card slot added to it.

  • Fair enough the phone looks good, but it is useless! I have had to send my back for repair a few times due to it constantly freezing and switching itself off. THe camera quality is patchy at best and my hanset wont even show me pics i have taken unless i use them as a wallpaper **DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE***

  • its ok good phone

  • help me pls. beacause my uncle buy me this phone from england and i don't know if this phone there is good.. pls. tel me if it is good or not., i nid your reply as soon as possible thanks guys.

  • I got this phone on a contract and it broke in about 5 months - i didnt drop a phone once but it started to turn off randomly after about 2 months, after 2 more weeks the screen started to go blank, and then i went camping for the weekend and left it on the table overnight and it got water damage (i guess from the morning mist?) and after that the only thing that worked on the phone were the red buttons, while the screen and keypad did not work at all!! i was very disappointed since i spent $100 just to have this phone with 3 year contract now i need to buy a brand new phone.. also, it doesnt let u send files via bluetooth if they are in mp3 folder, plus u cant set the files that are in ur mp3 folder as ringtones... messed up phonebook quiet volume and weak vibrator.. i dont know bout u but id never buy this phone again..

  • hi for all people who has problem with battery life with this phone just turn OFF powersaving becoz it is so lame my phone battery used to last for only 2 days with minimal use but now i turned off powersaving and set the brightness of the screen to 60% or 40% (as you like) and voila !!!! my phone battery lasted for 4 days now without recharging ,, try it and tell me

  • Ive had this phone for about 6 months now, sure its not feature crammed, but thats not what gets you noticed is it?! Im using the 8800 sirocco now, but i still go back to the chocolate every now and again cos its just so cool looking! =]

  • well i baught this phone a while ago and i am very disappointed in it due to it keep freezing when i am using it and when i am on the phone it just cuts out. the battery doesnt even last long so i have to keep charging each day. if i could i would go and get my money back i would.

  • I see alot of people in here has wrote bad things about this phone. I have had my phone a little bit over a year now and havent got any problem at all! And my batteri last for alteast 2 days after a year, and i have spoken total 300 hours. * Only thing that could be annoying is when i want to send a mp3 (5Mb) song to a friend it takes more or almost than 5 min. * And durin this year my phone maybe frozen 3 times.. * And yes, the touchpad still works perfectly I would rekomend this phone to the people who are thinking of buying it.

  • if this phone does not have airplane mode can you still switch it o a plane but to silent mode or not can someone please answer this question?

  • I have to sy this has to be the worst phone battery wise it dosent even last a day soo dissapointed in this phone could only get it in pink only colour i could get new no!

Carma!! ahah Sorry sis!!

  • I am using this phone beacause I have no option (hefully getting he HTC P4350 next week). The LG is most definitely the worst pone ever sold. Only holds 150 sms (in/out and draft), drops calls constantly, can hardly hear someone when on a call (and the handset volume is on max), terrible reception, browser absolutely useless, navigation very bad (you have to go through a minimum of 5 menues to do anything), the sound is bad, alarm can't be snoozed and yes doesn;t go off sometimes. Please, please, pelase don't waste your time and money on this phone. It's not worth the looks !!!

  • i love lg chocolate it ias my favourite phone ever and motorola well lg chocolate is really cool i love loads and this is really weird but can you buy blue lg chocolate!!

  • @fckLG, you are not from holland, and if you are pls tell me what great electronic brand that comes from Holland? If you can answer this question then hand up for me, but if you cannot answer this, then your are a fake as well as your post.

  • In holland most of the LG get returmed to the shops. in my shop they suggest people not to buy this one. Its a pretty cell but it will brake down

  • can someone tell me if this phone is bad or not cause im thinking of buying it my old phone o2 ice isn't loud enough so if this phone is loud i will defintely buy it!

  • The First Few Weeks I Thought The Phone Was Amazing, But Now I Think I'm Going To Go Buy Another Phone Because It's Already Scratched Up, And It's Not Leting Me Download Ring-Tones Or Anything Onto It.

  • ehh i'm wanting go get this fone real bad. is it worth it? few of my friends have em and haven't had ne problem with them..

  • i just bought a new kg800 and was wondering how to download mp3's onto it,it says it comes with a usb cable but mine hasnt got one,could someone please help me out

  • hello im thinking about buying the white one does it have speakerphone? is the camera good?

  • To be honest, I just ordered three of this phone online and I honestly think that I am going send them back. Because with all these comments I think that this phone is good looking but it is also a rip off and this conclusion is based on consumers opinionsI right.......?

  • Hey guys, just a quick question. I just got this phone and was wondering how to change the soft keys on the main menu. Currently, they are "menu" and 'internet', and I would like to change the 'internet' soft key to something I would actually use. I tried looking through the manual, but no luck finding it.

  • its a good phone and all but it really really needs more memory and a proper speaker for music :D

  • lols mah fwend said that if u drop dis fone it will break into 2 pieces cuz it is a slid up nd u can fix it!! but i dun noe cuz i dont hav wun yet but it looks cool cuz ov de touch screen!! xD

  • I think that in general this phone is okay. But it does tend to freeze up sometimes, and then other times the touchpad won't work. It's camera is average, but good for it's price. I don't reccomend people to buy this handset

  • Need An Honest opinion Is This Phone Too "Girly" For A Man?

  • iv had this ph for a yr and have taken it into repairs 3 times now because the audio is that bad i cant hear calls they can hear me tho and cuts out. missed calls dont appear. No snooze on the alarm which is annoying. sometimes the alarm doesnt even go off. the longer i have the phone the worse quality the camera gets. eh i hate it

  • i,ve had my phone for 7 months. not enough memory and the body scratch

  • i have the lg chocolate two weeks now it is a great phone i have the pink real cute quite outstanding .i would like to lock my messages and phone is there any way i can do that

  • Iv'e had this phone for just about 4 mnths now, i havnt had any technical problems so far, so thats good. But I wish it had more memory, and speaker. Oh, and it would be nice for the ringtones to be a bit louder too. But otherwise, its a sexy, stylish phone, im happy with it.

  • nevermind - In the UK box for the phone it comes with the PC software and a USB cable. Box content can be country specific though. To the person asking for an honest opinion as to whether or not to get one - I wouldn't. I work in a phone shop and have regularly advised people not to get the phone. We have had a large number come back to us as faulty, the main fault being that the screen only shows white or blank when the slider is open. I think there are better phones out there that look just as good and are far more reliable.

  • I had this phone for over a month. At first, I love this phone for the stylish design, but there are 3 things I don't like about it. 1) The battery life's not good 2)Since the navigation keys are sensitive, it's easy to touch a button that we don't want by an accident 3) the vibrate mode is not very good, if I put chocolate on my casing, it won't vibrate. there are a few things you should think about, before buying this phone, But If you want design, LG Chocolate's the best!

  • This is a nice phone, but after a couple of months on both mine and my friends the touch buttons stopped working. Easily scratches, and screen is super sensitive, mine freezes and turns white.

  • The phone looks great but the battery lasts only a day and the bigger battery isn't much better. There is no snooze button, you can only send a group text to 6 people at once and when the phone is on silent the alarm won't sound, so I can't sleep and not get disturbed if I need the alarm on. Its frozen on me a couple of times and I had to turn the phone off and rempove the sim card to reboot it. The other thing is I can't store peoples pictures in the phonebook and the manual doesn't explain and the staff at Vodafone who sold me the phone couldn't tell me either. My hands free has never worked either.... The slim design means ease of carrying in pockets is great but the above mentioned things make it a bit annoying!

  • At only 4 months old, it would not turn on, charge or anything. It was sent away for repairs and came back 4 weeks later. Not a good phone compared to what is out there.

  • I've had my kg800 choc. a couple of months and NO problems at all. I wish it had speaker phone though.

  • well i have been searching on the internet for info about this fone....there is alot of negative feedback and alot of good...i am thinking about getting one but i need someone to truthfully tell me if it is a good buy or not....

  • i just had this phone.. and I could say that it is a nice phone..if your looking for a slide up phone with camera then this would fit u.. and it is really stylish...

  • i have never had any problems with the phone! NEVER! and the battery is great!

  • My choco white is now 2 months old!! it's great .. i hadden't had any problems with it. it's very chic and atracts attention. i am happy with my phone. :X:X

  • sorry to say this but to share some truth and advice with u,this phone it sucks it does not have any of this ,3g,loudspeaker,radio and it has poor software.pls go for nokia u won"t regret.i once have it.

  • I have replaced mine three times so far and I need to replace it yet again. The battery life sucks. The touch sensitive screen is erratic. While listening to messages sometimes my cheek will touch the buttons and the phone goes crazy. It turns off every time I plug in my headphones. Six months with this phone and I am still not used to the touch sensitive screen- it was just a bad idea. DO NOT buy this phone.

  • this phone is hot... the only thing that i wish it had was a speakerphone...besides that its very handy with the bluetooth....its stylish and eye-catching...

  • Hey I just bout this phone a couple of weeks ago, it's not bad. Battery is a little disappointing, if you use it frequently then you will find it a bit of a stretch to last even two days, but apart from that... it's a nice, stylish little phone. Something I was wondering - does this phone have speaker phone? Does anyone know? Because I haven't figured out how to activate it yet. All help/advice appreciated. Cheers.

  • this phone is fab! its da best. if u ave any trouble blame network coz this fone is fab!

  • In another case,the screen sometimes freeze and then in about 2-3 minutes resumes?In another instance the screen goes white and I'd have to restart the phone? Now might i had that these problems i'm experiencing now were not suspected anytime ago.

  • Questions! Does anybody know why when you try to activate the camera or video recorder it keeps on reading and then freeze?

  • Just in! The KG800s is anyone familiar with this type? I'm experiencing some difficulties with the screen?

  • how the hell do you upload your pics from the phone with no software included or able to download?

  • "why isnt the download games work on my phone? when i try to download games onto my phone it just didnt let me , anyone PLease help ME ASAP :)" Me just being a young teenager I dont know much... This may be know help to you but if you are doing it from your phone that some time doen't work so you might want to try it from the web/computer if not call you phone company and tell them your problem. Sorry if im not help to you Adam

  • I got one for my b/day and its a really good phone a camera mp3 blue tooth video.... Yeah ...... you can take videos but how do you send them in an mms you cant well you can send them via blue tooth how do you send them via message ???????? can anyone help

  • if your having troubles with the calls breaking up you should perhaps blame your network provider cuz this phone is awesome.

  • why isnt the download games work on my phone? when i try to download games onto my phone it just didnt let me , anyone PLease help ME ASAP :)

  • this phone isnt that bad but after a while the phone just turns off on me when im textin andi dont kno why it does and my keypad doesnt work. at night you cant see anythin.

  • This is the worst phone ever made. I bought 1 last week and it is malfunctioning.

  • this phone looks sweet. it's a good buy don't worry bout all d negative feedbacks

  • this handset looks good but the touch controls are tooo sensitive the battery sucks and the internal memory stinks

  • well i havent bought it yet but after reading this site i deffinitly will thanx :)

  • I dont understand why everybody says that this phone is so bad. the touchpad is a bit hard the first days but u get used to it. I think that the battery is ok and it has alush design. So if u like it buy it, dont listen to all negatives coments...:P

  • What an awful handset this is. On the plus side, it looks good. On the down side, the touch controls can be very erratic and over sensitive, the bluetooth can only handle small files on many handsets, the internal memory is poor, the camera is average at best, the screen is prone to break down (showing only blank when slider is opened due to poor wiring). If you're after a phone that looks nice, sure, go for it. But don't expect it to actually be a good phone.

  • the phone is cute and everything. its pretty nice too. i dont have that much problem after im used to it. at first it was kind of hard because the phone freeze a lot. but after the batery is fully charge it doesnt freeze. anyways volume are really low, you could hardly hear the person u're on the phone with. and one thing i really hate is the batery, it uses so much batery. other than those. the phone is ok ^.6

  • this is a very fantastic phone:but the battery s***ks....no probs its still kool..i got it for free from work:

  • My name's JEHU from jamacia i think this phone is good it has a nice look and reasonable features but i choose the samsung x830. The lg is really a normal phone apart from the slide up part its really just like another phone. Does the screen actually turn white? If so please tell me what to do so i can help my brother if that happens when he gets the lg. It cant be helped my brother is just possessed in getting the lg even though we compared the phone over the web. L0L

  • awesome dude . its cool, i will like a free one.

  • GREAT phone, some features a little tricky but over all really good, ive dropped mine a couple times and its still working, i ust cant seem to find out how to import music and such onto it, the phone didnt come witha program help please!

  • my phone looked nice but dissapointingly quite low on features and a very small memory. it was working for about 3 months and then it didnt charge 4 me can someone pleez help me out. email me on [email protected]

  • this phone is actually pretty good. everyone gets annoyed but the touchpad but you get used to it after a while. mine got messed up after about 8 months but i got them to replace it so its all good.

  • I'm quite happy about it.But this phone it's too fragile, if you drop it at least once, you can say goodbye to it.

  • the design of this phone is very beautiful. but no quality. allways break the calls when i was speaking and the touchscreen in not comfortable.

  • This phone as far as features go is a great disappointment. Lokks really are decieving!!

  • this phone looks deadly!!! whats it like????? xxxxxxx

  • This phone is absolutely horrible. It is constantly dropping calls and its reception is horrible. the network is apparently constantly busy on this phone. If you are thinking of buying this phone then u might as well throw your money in the garbage......or give it to me :p

  • After 4 months total breakdown.

  • Very cool phone, speaker quality is very soft though. Adore the BASS EARPHONES. Good buy! Pity theres no MEMCARD SLOT..

  • I gonna buy this phone soon.. It looks great.. I think it wont be any problem.. Rtye?

  • The fone was amazing wen i got it now...after maybe 6 month its absolutely broken....not through with bein rough but it plays up all the time....! if you are thinkin on buying this fone please dont...!

  • Looks Great, and thats about it. Did a 30 day return on mine, bluetooth not responding. Had the new one 2 weeks and it's at the repair shop, dropping calls!!

  • I've just bought the white chocolate today...it looks very nice that's for sure... and it has good features...not top ...but in the middle :)...the camera is nice...and good sound nice mp3 player... i am happy with it...for now :D

  • Hopeless in every way sums it up. Poor reception, poor call clarity, slow camera interface and a keypad that can't keep up. Only good thing is the touch sensitive keys and the looks.

  • Hello to all, I got this phone in white (very asian). I really like the way it looks and feel good in hands. The main problem is the battery life. I have Nokia E60, so any other phone is like a toy for me. But LG are really good in theri black series. It's fashion phone, nothing more. Everything works fine, a bit slow, but working.

  • well i dont have one but some of my friends have them and well one broke like the day after they bought it n the other one works fine. beats me

  • This is a failure in mobile technology, to sum it up up this phone is crap, it should be recalled, total failure with decieving looks.

  • looks always doesnt matter... if features sucks coz no one need his wife shud hav lose character using dis phone from last six months... really sucks i wana sell this mobile. but cant do that coz it was gifted to me

  • Everyone say its such a good phone but personally... nothing special at all!!!!!

  • these phones are nice and appealing but they suck. i've had soo many of them break sensors don't work screen goes blank phones freezes. i think lg came out with a nice style but if you want a phone that lasts long it's not this one.

  • this lg is da best

  • very nice phone! :) though the battery isn't so well but it has good sound for sure, and the camera... don't buy phones with good cameras they will not exceed the line that a single camera can for much less money :)

  • And I thought it was just me! I miss calls & messages all the time - changed sim- still didn't work. Can't hear the caller most of the time when I actually get the call. Phone cuts off mid conversation & the camera is crap. The battery needs recharging really quickly. I wished I'd kept my old Nokia- ok people laughed but at least it worked!! DON'T BUY IT. ABSOLUTE RUBBISH.

  • i mean i like it iits aight i just got it yesterday my bf bought this phone for me its so cool!

  • I am thinking of buying this phone. It's 100 Euro with a contract where I'm from....is it worth it!!!

  • i have had my phone for 1 month. and i just love it. I haven't had any problems with my phone it works great, just pay attention to it. it's a more sensetive phone but you will get used to it in like 5 days. the touchpad works, no prob. the memory is suficient. aprox 25 full songs + space for photos or videos. i think my money was well spent!

  • Someone help me! Please? im having problems with downloading games onto my lg kg800 phone. Problems like - Downloading games on the internet - Downloading 'Jar' files, and it always sends it in to the 'Others' folder and not the 'Games' folder . . . (If U guys know what i mean) ANY SOLUTIONS PLZZ TELL ME ! This phone is still cool 4 school !!! and it will always impress all DA CHICKS!!! :)

  • is it normal for this phone to restart if i select delete all function in message inbox or outbox

  • the screen turns white after 2 weeks

  • hi i would like to know if opera mini works with this phone? cause i have downloaded it and it dosnt work is there any thing i must do so i can get it to work on the phone thanks.please email me back thanks again

  • This phone is useless. Its very basic and has very limited features. The touch keys are super sensitive and scrolling through photos takes imense patience. The battery life is crap and the camera quality is pathetic. I have sent mine back and chosen a sony ericsson instead.

  • wtf, i can do all of that with this phone =S makes no sense! arghhhh but the camera is soooo bad =S

  • Laura, The phone is not expandable therefore u cannot put a memory card in it. If you're looking for a phone to hold a lot of files then I'd suggest a Sony Ericsson or samsung, not this one... :)

  • does this fone have blue-tooth??

  • you will have to play your mp3 file, than you can set you mp3 as ringtone ;)

  • omg i dno how to set mp3s as a ringtone either!! i dnt kno how to get the mp3 onto the phone frm my computer in th first place!!

  • Can you set ringtones for individual contacts?

  • I was thinking of buying this phone but I dont know. so many people says its bad... but the memory is realy poor, can you by a memory card to put in the phone? how mutch do they cost? And from the phone, can u put pictures on the computer? if u can do u need to buy something extra then? I read about it but i didnt really understand. In the back with the phone, what do u get? Do u get a hads-free? and the little rubber u get with the phone, what is it for? I would be really happy if someone can answer any of my questions!:) //Laura

  • I think the phone is great. Now i am no longer getting bored with just 2 or 3 songs on my phone and it has wonderful memory. Can anybody tell me what site to go to for games to put on my phone?

  • anyone know how to set mp3s as ringtone? pls telll

  • I just have a big problem with the battery life...Can't it get enhanced? I mean one can not kepp on recharging everyday...it is really starting to get on me tits!!

  • absolutely nothing wrong with my choco fone and i must say i have read some pretty badreviews on it on other websites, but i think those ppl are just jealous and make upshit so ppl wont buy it! its a great fone, camera is awsome. if ur worried about the battery buy another one! and dont slide it up and dwn everytime u se it, u can just push the two arrow voume keys on the left sid twice and the fone will be unlocked, tadaa.

  • Lovely phone! I don't have any problem with this phone. for me this is the best.

  • Now it really does make me wonder why people get this phone, i mean the battery life is garbage, the camera quality is poor, the touchscreen buttons are just a joke and its an LG phone. Does anyone else agree that the LG brand of phones are just so poor they might as well just give up now.

  • Can anyone tell me how to set photos on the name of contacts. so I can see who's calling with photos of callers. I tried this but It says my phone picture book is empty. But I actually have in my album.

  • Hi anna from spain.......you must try to find JAR files and then send it to your phone.....because jar files are usually games........go on the site below:

  • For some reason my phone doesnt play Mpeg4 video, Can anyone help me?

  • Sue, Your phone has a year's manufacture's warranty that covers u for faults such as the one you've described. If every phone did that then they would've been recalled. CPW will repair your phone on behalf of the manufacturer. Normally u have to send it 2 LG yourself. Depending on where u live the turnaround time for this is an average of 2-3 weeks.

  • I used this mobile for almost one year. I love the design it's really stylish.. everything is fine until 1 month ago the screen is turn into white.. I read that many people also get the same problem with me and no solution!! I'm really upset.. but I admit, the design is fabulous!!

  • Hi - can anyone help? My Chocolate overheated badly the other day when charging, it has never happened before but when I went to get it it was red hot. Carphone Warehouse say it is a faulty power amp but they have to send it back to LG and it could take up to 28 days - during which I will be without a phone !! I can't find anything about power amps on the net, does anybody know whether this is really likely to be the problem, it has only happened once? Thanks !!!

  • hi! I am a girl from spain and I wanted to say that my mobile LG chocolate works very well and I have not had any problems with this. I hope it to continue like this and the same: I want to know how to install games in this phone. Forgive my english pleas...i�m studying hard...

  • im saving up money and stuff to get an LG KG800 & i think their a real good phone ..they look good and have awsome features ..i don't know why you people think their so bad! i mean...their worth the money and i think theres nothing to complain about...so you people should shut the hell up so other people that want this phone dont feel intimadated and buy a different phone... i know this box is for oppinions and its only fair to let you have yours but i have only read bad, negitive, mean comments for this phone and it should stop. i hav heard nothing but good comments from people who have the phone that i know and they think its a good phone and its worth every dollar you spend on it! so next you put in a message ort oppinion trhink about the other people that read this box... because they may want to purchase the LG KG800 and shoudn't feel negitive or unsure about buying this phone because of your stupid put down

  • people in singapore are more fortunate i guess. i got this phone too, and its working great. has been working for a few months and has not even went to the service center yet! anyway, dos anyone knows how to install games in this phone? i've got so many free games from websites to download !

  • I got thios phone as a gift. The send BUS card feature is not available. Also it does not have a card slot, its internal shared memory being just 128 Mb !

  • worst phne can any one hav. usin from 5 months....dont know aftr reading opinion y people r buyin dis...cant minimize mp3 playr.now i cant sell dis coz i'll not get anythng from dis... not that much money so i can buy even (bt i'll nt buy)nokia 6070.facd lot of problms. main problm is display which evryone face later or now. coz u cant judge a phne in 1 week. as mostly give suggestion to buy dis phne aftr using 10 days

  • i hads an lg chocolate for my birthday. for a couple of months it was fine (my birthday was in february) but now its gone all fuzzy and you cant even see the screen as it goes grey or fuzzy. I really hate it and its on contract so its wasting my fathers money. It is a really bad phone x

  • I think the value of this phone depends on the patience of the user. Though at first I was slightly frustrated at the touch screen buttons, they became better. I've had it for just over a year now and though now its got some scratches on it I've had a great time and its really stylish. This is one of the phones where you sacrifice a bit of function for a lot of form. I highly recommend it if you want to show off your phone a bit, though its a bit old now (check out the LG shine or LG prada!!) xx

  • i don't know why these guys r saying so,but its really a good phone....its rocking..i suggest all those who want to buy this phone,just go and get it....

  • HELP! I Neeeeed help with signal. I wan't to know about the signal. I use 'VIRGIN MOBILE' and I have this fone. It keeps saying searching and barely comes up 'VIRGIN' Is it the fone or the network?????

  • As with the comment below, my third replacement of this Phone has just broken. I won't buy an LG phone again, nor will I buy a phone from the Orange website. Crap phone. Crap Service. Very dissapointed, that I have had 4 of these phones since christmas (only 5.5months ago) I will not be accepting another.

  • im about to be on my third one because after about 2 months everytime i try to turn it on the screen whites out and verizon is being cheap and wont let me exchange for a phone of equal or lesser value and i took very good care of it everytime its never been exposed to water or been droped at all this phone also before it started whiting out it use to restart its self everytime you tried to use the camera so to me its not worth the but at all i spent about 250-300 hundred dollars after buying the phone and music accesories (waste of money)so do not buy this phone its really not worth it

  • this fone is slower than my grand mother running the 100m sprint....and she doesn't have any legs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • got tired of this phone after a week of getting but the sad thing is, i still have it

  • for the dude who just got his/her chocolate ten days ago...i suggest that you give it another couple of days and see how much you loveit then!!!

  • I recommend that no one buys this fone for it is not worth time and effort sending it to get fixed several times/ i'm sure y'all have better things to do than to deal with KG800!!!!

  • hey, i work in a phone store in bris we havehad like a 78% return rate. this phone is crap we recommend not buying it at any cost. not even if it is free

  • awesome phone i love it!! i got it like 10 days ago and it's just great.the sound is good and i listen all day to music. so stylish.. people luv it. you get used to the touchscreen in like a couple of days. LOVE IT!!!

  • i like it but 2 days ago1! so long time haha the screen began to fail it is normal?!?!

  • the phone is great

  • If this is not a good cell phone, which cell phone you would recommend one could buy. I am from JAMAICA.

  • im sorry but i read all your comments and then still went out and bought the phone it rocks! oh by the way elvis was the king!

  • crap useless worse than elvis mp3 is bad hangs a lot software problems messed up keypad not worth buying fill the blanks ................ ................ ............... ............... ............... the list goes on ....

  • hi if u buy any of these phones hey work with any service plans like verizon or tmobile or any cause i dont understand u buy and use it normaly

  • KG800...be carefull...this phone is not what they say... video mms they don't receive or send... don�t buy this phone...!

  • I have this phone, i really liked it at first for about the first 2-3 months, then it started going crazy its a crap phone, i threw 200 euros away, i could have gotten the D900 for the same amount and had a phone thats a million times better... hate it Dont get it whatever you do!!!

  • hey ive had this phone for about 3months now no problems good camera all round a good phone i play tackle footy at skool with it my pocket and nothin has happend so resonbly strong

  • i bought mine about five months ago and its working fine as eva, noooooo...... problems at alllll........... i hear alot of persons saying bad things about this phone well.... two words "tough! luck!"........ you should treat your phones with care, i guess this one wasn't made for you guys sori.. :-p

  • i wanna buy this fone coz it has everything i need but im hearing alot of bad stuff happenes 2 it!! is it reli dat bad??

  • Sup Pplz, This is one of the best looking phones u can ever buy . . . but i heared roomers that this phone stuffs up alot, thats just BS i had this phone for 2 days & its still runnning!! Aiight, Lg kg800 is cool 4 school . . . !!!!

  • I liked it until the screen started blacking out and whiting out and now when i slid it open i have two mini screens at the top .... it turns off by itself and misses text messages and phone calls .... its a useless pice o crap

  • is it really THAT bad?? i wanna buy one cuz it looks really sexy, but if the performance ain't great, i dunno..

  • it is a great fone. it can hold about 30 songs, but u can put is as a ringtone. use the usb cable to get then free from computer.

  • I dont really like this fone. I work in a store that sells fone and I know all the features of this fone and to be honest, its not all of that. Its just stylish. I prefer the Samsung D820. That has more features than the LG anyday.

  • its useless the music gets deleted off on its own i cannot save anything without the phone going balistic it switchess off on its own i only have it for 6 months now...

  • hy i just got the phone and i love it. it is very classy and chic. i hope it will last me a long time because i take real good care of it. the mp3 is awesome. and you can put your own headspeakers. well.. that's it. and for those how are unsatified : you knew that this phone is more sensitive than others so stop complaining it's your choice!

  • its a cute and smart phone,just let me know how many songs can be in it.

  • ok my opinion then,,this is my second fone now as first one kept swithching off so it went for repair this after 4 weeks 1 day. Got it back and after 3 days use screen going white then nothing so remove battery and restart..Carfone sent me new one pretty quick which unusual,,but faulty screen just goes white and swithches off,,,it does this often but its not only that,,wen in town or busy place buttons are nightmare getting texting right and so frustrating feel like bursting into tears with it..I think battery is poor and in cold weather and bright light useless,,This fone looks nice and thats it its a gimmick,,if you are a texter forget it like i am and my mother is fed up of seeing me in such a mood,,The fone is not working now so have to take off battery again but thats it getting another one and going for pink razer one that i originally had at least i know it will work for me if they still make them i dont know..Feel better now and less headaches now im getting a working fone.

  • Hi i really like this phone and planning on getting it but i would just like to know why everyone says its so bad? how many songs can you have on the phone and can you set your own music as a ringtone? pleaseee reply as i love this phone but dont want to deal with a lot of problems

  • I work in a phone retailer. DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE. It is the worse phone I have ever used and everyone who buys one hates it. It also breaks down ALOT. It is a HEAP OF CR*P.

  • wanna buy this cellphone(:, is it good?

  • ur set is very poor. it has low battery backup.

  • i would definately recommend a SE phone, in fact any other phone out there would be a better choice then this i believe... this is a classy looking phone and all, but that is all you get. you cant really personalise it much compared to SE phone... you can't change the theme and the ringtone of this phone...

  • this is so far the 3rd phone that i had and i really regreted buying it.... its a total waste of money!! i have to admit that the phone looks really cool and i really love the touch screen. the phone design is really great, but the function sucks... firstly, how the hell are you going to use your phone in the dark when there is no backlight for the keypad! and the keypad is sooo insensitive that smsing is really a big problem for me... and my T9 dictionary cant seem to remember more then one word. it always forget the previous word when i key in a new word into the dictionary... and for those who have a habit of using your handphone as an alarm clock, think twice... you'll have to pray that no idiots call you in the middle of the night cus you cant put the phone on silent as it silence out the alarm too... so bottom line is... this phone is not worth buying. i would prefer my first phone (Z200) over this crap.

  • absolutly sexd up fone.i luv it man.the camera clarity is very clear and also mp3 is up to expectations.dunno why ppl dont lik it. the only thing i dont like is it grabs all the attention!!! eminem rox

  • what are the settings so you can send picture msgs. i got the phone in car phone ware house and it is intended for 02 network and have my vodafone sim in it but i cant sent pic msgs!!!

  • so this fone DOES suck???its not worthy 2 buy??

  • This LG KG800 chocolate phone is "A" grade CR*P ive had problems since day 1!! i ve had it sent away fixed on several occassions and they replaced it!! and ive just waited one month to get it back from repairs again and they've formated it so i cant even get into it! The key pad is useless and the speaker dies out and comes back in when it feels like!! LG the company dont even want to know about you when u call up!!! DO NOT GET THIS PHONE!!!!!!! YOU WILL BE SORRY!!!!

  • hey my freind tom wants this fone bad oppinion hahahaha i bawt a nokia 6300 its a good fone lol

  • Coming from somebody who works in a well known phone retailer in the UK... Repairs turnover on these is quite high. Personally I think it's the way people use their phones but this does seem to have V. sensitive software...

  • cool phone great for the ladies but the touch pad needs getting used to

  • I like this mob. Is there a way to keep the mp3 player on the background?

  • ok, so. i've had this phone for about, two-three months so far. *& the only bad things are, that there's no speaker phone, *& whenever i set my ringtone and everything, it's my ringtone, and on the same style of alert. but, when someone calss, it's a differnet ringtone. which pisses me off .. =_- oh well. it's fine. i absolutely love this phone, and showing it off to people (:

  • someone asked about java games .......yah dude ou can play jave games any thing you want to no just go into the store and ask about it they will tell you all hope i helped ;-)

  • i have had the phone for about a month now and i like it the only thing wrong with it is there is not much mp3 space but other than that i think it is fab plus it looks good !

  • Beautiful, stylish phone but has a pathetic battery!!!

  • worst phone i have ever used,

  • hey you guys.. can anyone plz plz tell me how can I change the level of sensitivity of the touch keys? I really wanna know, if it`s posible. And one more question...i read your opinions.. when someone call's you can you activate a song/a melody of your own?(not included in the phone?) ex: Any band or singer. thanks :*

  • i just got the phone n was wondering if u can set mp3 music as ur message tone

  • I have this LG KG800 for 8 months and it never gave me any problems I don't know why people hate it.

  • well i like the phone for its touch sensitivity, however, im in the habit of texting my friends back and forth and with my LG phone im unable to do so at nights or in the dark because the key pad does not light up. also it is difficult to use the phone outdoors because of the sunlight because u cant see the information on the phoe.

  • This phone is the best!!!!!!!!!

  • i had the LG cocolate for a year... i loved it however got quite annoying after a while. when your hands are cold the keys dont work every well. I have had to replace my phone becuase when i called people i couldnt hear them. My friend has the same problem and also has to return hers 7 times (she lost it 3 times...)If you want any honest information.. Please email me

  • this is a beautiful phone, stylish and easy to use there are some down sides - no speaker phone,only one entry per person in the address book but in general i love it - for features you want a nokia but that company seem to have lost the plot of late - this phone is small,compact and gorgeous and i haven't had any probs at all - using it with your computer to back up your photos /songs is SO easy - don't listen to the doubters battery life is sufficient too - COOL PHONE!

  • my organizer on my phone is pelled wrong? is anyone elses?

  • I've had my pink lg chocolate phone since november it was working great untill about 2 weeks ago! Then the screen started going white and my menu would split in half and it happened to one of my family members aswell who had the same mob! now its been sent off for repairs and all my stuff i had on it will be lost

  • This mobile phone is like the slickest phone that's been produced by LG yet! I haven't seen a better or more stylish phone in ages. The touch - sensitive buttons take a while to get used to, but besides that the phone is nearly perfect. Glam finish, red and black totally show off well together, sleek design and compact body. Camera resolution is pretty good for a mobile, and the design rates 10/10. I personally recommend this phone to anyone who needs a hot and not too expensive phone.

  • I am currently using this phone, in white. Personally it is just an average phone, with average features, nothing much. However, this phone has given me many small problems here and there, and i must say that the average functions do bore one over time. For one, this phone cannot have personalised message tones. That's actually quite alright, except that the one's they've provided are really tacky. Also, this phone cannot play mp3 while doing other tasks, hence not a multitasker. this little problem has really inconvenienced me much. the fact that it doesn't have any expandable memory is a real downer too. now, i've owned this phone for a couple of months, and it has slowly started giving me problems. For example, sometimes, it will turn off for absolutey no reason, even when i'm talking on the phone. Besides that, it's messaging functions are really quite lousy as dictionary is the default option no matter what and now i cannot save any words into the dictionary. it is also quite laggish. however, i must admit that other than those faults, itis really quite durable, as i have dropped this phone multiple times and yet, not a scratch is on the phone. that, however may be the only good thing i have to say about this phone. further more, this phone has no option of changing themes, with only either a black or white background. i would advise someone to buy this phone only if you are going for an extremely basic phone. otherwise, i'd stick to nokia or sony ericsson.

  • I have the other chocolate phone and if it's anything like this one there are def. some problems. The phone likes to restart on its own, and sometimes it's so touch sensative that the buttons don't work at all. It's an OK phone if you buy it without knowing all the problems with it first, but if you do your research you'll realize you shouldn't even waste your money.

  • dont do a mistake 2 buy this choclte.this is completely f_ c_ing phone. i m facin many problem. this restart automatically. display is completely gone.PLZZZZZ Dont buy. if u want to save ur money go for nokia

  • i REALLY wanted to get this phone but all of your friggin comments sacred me, i was supposed to get it in 2 days, but now i dont know what to dooo! ppl, let me know .. or like do you have any other recommendations?

  • hi... i;ve had this fone for about 10 months now and wasn't giving problems still not mager ones that i cant deal with... but i have one question in adding a number to your phone it gives you the option to add a photo to your contact but in trying that it has always told me phone book album empty i have looked every where on my phone to try and get this setting right but its not working, is there such a setting or is it just there for show and if so i think it is really stupid... can the LG chocolate support screen savers and personalized themes...

  • ha u guys are all dreaming its an awesome phone easy to use once u get used to it one problem is not getting the cables good phone go buy it

  • can i charge my LG KG800 witht the usb cable?

  • why u didnt put the option the enabole or desapole alarm and turn the power on becouse dring sleap i turn off my mobile to not take any calles while iam sleaping but i want the alarm to wake me up at the time of work olso the silent mode is very stuped for the same reason i dont have option to male the alarm work in sillent moode

  • the same as the last post had it 2 months and screen has crashed ....i get half fuzzie and top half 2 pictures but can still no wot it wot shame it a cracking phone

  • What program on my computer will help me to see the movie from the phone ? i can`t play 3GP ... it sais ERROR. i tryed with QuickTime ... ERROR, VLC... ERROR ...

  • does it have a usb cable included???

  • I had this phone for 5 months and its already broken! When i slide-up the slider, the screen goes blank/negative/false coloured/etc... so annoying!!! But anyhow, this phone is still a really good phone.. still lovin it.. the design is really good.. wanna get the Shine next time!!

  • hey how do i email pictures from my phone to my computer.....basicaly how do i get the pics on my computer for printing???

  • I have had this phone since it first came out,and i have to say i loved it,the style the colour and touch screen but it also has alot of side effects.the pics were clear when i first got it but now they not very clear,their is no loudspeeker or able to record.like alot of other people my phone freezers on me and i have to turn it off only now the off button does not work and i have to take the battery off.you cant text in the dark unless you know which buttons to press coz the key pads have no lights.I have had to return it to the shop 3times already.this is the first phone i have ever had problems with so in future i will stick with the Nokia phones.LG are not equipped for the making of a phone but only for the design.

  • it says it got no card slot and therefore you can't increase the memory...

  • I am upset because I thought that you could have personalize ring tones but obviously you cant...LG really messed up big time..Very upset about that I want to get rid of it now

  • Best Fone Evah! :-)

  • no place for memory card and no boost. but good phone.

  • I got mine for a week now. Honestly, I wanted to return it the second day I got. But because the store didn't have other choices that I like, I decided to keep it. Yea, its true the touch keys are indeed very annoying. But after a while, you'll get use to it and you can change the level of sensitivity. I have Verizon, so I just have to wait for a year to get another one. Its not a bad phone, but I would not recommend it!

  • hi!!!! can anyone help me. i need to know if the phone has space for memory card or room for the volume to be boost up. would appreciate it.

  • hi i had this phone for two months and its working fine ,no problem with battery so far .love the sophisticated look and simplicity. i want to know if more memmory could be added and can the volume be boost up.or is ther place for memoery card

  • I got this phone when it first came out and i had nothing but problems wit it,it keeps freezing and the camera is not very clear,not alot of room for storing music or much else for that matter,other people i know had the same problems.the one good thing bout this phone is that it looks good but thats all.

  • Bom di chocolate hardish is more of a stylish phone not one u want to store nuff music on if u love show off dis phone is for u yes guys i love to show off dats why i bought myself one straight

  • hi im 12 and i gt this fone! soooo kool! no pronbs just buy it full stop!

  • hey i have had this phone for about a month and it is great people who complain about the memory are wrong it has heaps i have managed to convert all the pictures that i took to the images folder this takes up room on the phones internal memory, rather than the multi media memory i have also managed to have 2 10 min videos and 25 full lengh songs on my phone before the memory was nearly full this phone is really user friendly the touch screen is great and is quite easy to use and the menue is set up in an easy way there is no speaker phone, but that is fine it is quite loud already i bought this phone pre paid with telstra and i would advise against it when you buy it pre paid it doesn't come with all the cables to sinc it with your computerso i had to go on and buy them off ebay the only bag thing about this phone is the finger prints i bought the black one and it always has finger prints on it but they are easily wiped off over all excellent phone i don;t regret buying it all i regret is reading the comments which advised me against buying it xx

  • What a rubbish phone!!! Looks great, small light etc, but battery lasts about 12 hours on standby, bought a BIGGER battery, lasts about 13 hours on standby!!! Touch screen far too sensitive, rubbish rubbish rubbish! And I got it from car phone warehouse so stuck with it..............

  • worst phone i have ever had! had it repaired 3times in 6months and its still not fixed! battery life is short, dictionary memory forgets words, screen blacks out, turns off in the middle of use with full battery, then turns back on without even touching it, its very slow especially when typing msgs! do not buy!

  • i've had this phone for the past seven month.did not give me problem at first but like a month ago, the screen goes blank and it takes hrs for it to come back to normal. The phone is fine but lack a lot of functions like loudspeaker, memory slot etc. it is even not possible to assess your menu while on a call or while playing songs. i am tired already. will try to get another mobile phone preferably nokia. do not buy

  • I have the phn and i love it got it 4 Valentines day so I will treasure it MWAH

  • it looks a great phone but i'd like to know why the chocolate series sold in the States ae diffirent in the design and moreover it has an expandable memory while kg800 does not a micro SD port which is a big problem.

  • this phone is a piece of crab.It has no reception.when phone is silent u cant use the alarm.DO NOT BUY IT.

  • How do you set mp3 ringtones for this phone?? does it have to be a specific size or watever? i jus cant seem to do it on mine. the "set as ringtone" option jus isnt there..

  • what can i say, i'm very dissapointed in this 2006 disaster. . . after 4 months my phone went completely dead, and the vibration failed, after several warnings not 2 buy this phone, i still bought it and now i wish i never did!!! HINT: for other people DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE - IT REALLY SUCKS!!!

  • bought this phone less than 12 hours ago and i use my mobile alot so its already had some use. Im taking it back tomorrow. I love the design the touch pad is wikid but already it had blacked out on me twice, i wasnt given a cable to transfer files from my PC to the mobile, theres no backlight for the text pad only for the touch pad. and theres a slight delay when selecting various things in the menu. You cant select diffent message tones and you cant set it to ring and vibrate at the same time. Not suitable for me even though i dont want to take it back i have too..

  • this phone is a piece of overpriced classy crap battery isnt that good, no memo slot, not durable enuf and its too copy cat jus coz every other manufacturer is making a classy slider, LG has got some homework to do

  • You cant get tones for it if your with Vodafone or wallpapers for that matter. The screen is too touchy and reception is not great. I dont know about other companies but vodafone cant support the settings for my phone and that means no downloads. I have had the phone since feb 2007 and I am regretting ever buying it. Go nokia all the way I wish i had. Atleast its settings are available.

  • luv dis fone sooo kool had it 4 a year best eva!

  • Hi, i might get this fone but i need to know does it have expandeble memory coz i need to store things on it if any1 knows the anwser can they plz send me an e-mail at [email protected], Thanks

  • I just got the Pink LG and I LOVE IT!! Its just the type of phone a gurl needs!! The camera takes good quality pics and the mp3 ringtones are loud and clear!! Don't understand why so many hate it!!

  • I have had this phone since December. It was great and worked perfectly. Then suddenly it has stopped working, there is no reaction from anything I do and I hagve not dropped it or anything like that. Any ideas on what to do?

  • i love the pink chocolate,and considered buying it but after reading the reviews,i'm not gonna bother! still looks hot though!

  • hey i hav a few questions: 1. Is the keypad good? 2. Does it have loudspeaker? 3. Are the touch screen buttons hard to use? 4. Is the screen big enough? 5. Is the pink to bright

  • i bought this phone 2nd hand so i got a pretty good deal although the phone i had prior to this 1 was a nokia and i must say that i much prefer nokia phones. it is a good phone but i have had problems with it like the screen freezes or the screen turns off just minor things other than that its a good phone with a hot design!

  • How does any one ever get or send out any pix message??? If any one could please help I would grately appreciate it. Thanks a bunch.

  • Its OK, but not enough memory. I got one today, and im starting to regret it... But it looks good.

  • lg its beautiful,unique,portable,easy to handle it and to keep in any way like in the pocket jeans and etc.it has different facilities like gprs,mp3 memory where by we can be able to record the varieties of sons i prefer for real-lg means "life goes on" always!congratulations lg teams proceed to product the quality for ever now adays our family decide to use lg products i appreciate all the best

  • I bought this mob I had a mistake I didn't bought the 3g lg chocolate but this 1

  • to me the chocolate phone is great its got great design touch screen works perfectly when not puting too much presure or touching too fast.It has great sound and good memory from stock because thats about how much i need all phones have their problems but sometimes depends on the owner.

  • i was just reading the reviews of others, and i have the exact same problem. worked fine till a couple of days ago. ive had it for about 4 months...the screen goes blank or turns black and white and when i turn it off and back on SOMETIMES it works, and sometimes it gives me two small blurry screens...and i have to keep turning it on n off till i get back to the normal screen. it seems like others are having the exact same problem. I've never dropped it or anything either. so i dont recommend this phone.

  • shud i get this phone or not cuz so many people are complaining

  • To all that have this phone in UK or Germany. Can you inform if portuguese language is one option in this phone sold in your countries? I need to know cause I want to buy one in ebay. Thanks

  • Hello i have been using LG KG800 the screen goes greyish most of the time and when i switch it off and switch it on it gives me two screens and i cannot make calls and send sms. I really love this phone could you please help me.

  • absolute rubbish!on 3-4mnths the phone was giving me problems.phone froze VERY OFTEN,touch keys didnt wrk,camera messed up,the whole 9 yards actually!Got it fixed and that took another 3weeks.but still have a problem with calls.Now i'm just waiting for the phone to give his last breathe.What a waste of time and money.USELESS!Don't go there!

  • I purchased this phone about five months ago, in the beginning everything was fine until now. The screen crashed, it's frozen and will not come back. Once I take out the battery put it back in and restarted it's fixed for about few minutes and than it's broken again. The KG800 is a horrible phone.

  • ok people a need some help cause am gettin the black LG KG800 on thursday and a want to no want to do to keep it in good condision and wat not to do with this fone if someone could help me a will be very greatful thanx

  • hi this is a reply to slacker! the reson your fone freezes is cz u bought it unlocked not new basically nicked and then unlocked! i advice u not 2 do that again ure fone was already brocken! giv it back and get a new 1! goodluck

  • Good phone.I have the telus version and it work s well enough but the only problem is that telus locks the bluetooth and doesnt even include proper accessories with it. You have ti buy a usb cord,sd memory card and case seperately.

  • this phone is amazing! he has a MP3 player,video camera and camera. I love him, mine is pink and I'm so happy :D idna

  • Phone: Unlocked GSM on t-mobile My phone freezes frequently while navigating the menu. If I wait, it clears itself sometimes. Most of the time, I have to close the slider the reopen it to regain control. Other times, side buttons will work but not the touch screen. Visually, it's a nice phone but it's quite frustrating to use right now. I may have a defective phone but it looks like lot of people are having similar problems. Some people are having success with fixing this freezing problem by replacing their SIM cards. I'll give that a try since my SIM is relatively old. If that fails, this phone is going back to the store.

  • KU800 is the 3G version

  • hey i might buy this fone but i dont kno does it have a video camera nd i hear it does have a loud speaker so yea

  • just ordered the red version of ebay ...

  • can i record conversation with this phone

  • I want to know from you what is opinia if I make a change beetwin an Sony Ericsson k750i and an LG chocolate?What do you think?who gets the advantaje?me or him?I want an answer if you want and you can!thank you

  • awsome fone! only had it a few days but doing me proud!! - tru aussie supporter lol lol lol

  • whats the difference between the ku800 and the kg800. and which one is better????!!!!

  • is a very good phone

  • i need help badly! basically i need a new phone and i want this one! but everyone is telling me that it is a wate of time and money and is only worth the lookz! true or false?!?!?! help i tested it out and i liked it but they always fix that version!

  • had this phone for 6 months. what a waste of money. had to get it changed after a day cause everytime i slid it up, it would go through the menus on its own. then my 2nd one started to crash after a few months and almost every time i slid it up, it would show a white screen. never had a problem with the buttons or touch screen, but the screen itself crashed ALOT. the mp3 player wasnt very loud either. also hasnt got loudspeaker which is a bit annoying. other than that it was okay i suppose.

  • This phone is really a waste of money. It is not a 3G phone so if you are in the wrong area, calls are not recd, calls drop out, voicemail is scratchy at best. Sure it looks good but buy at your own risk. I will stick to Nokia

  • Scratches very, very easily; speaker for mp3 ( a feature provided by chocolate phone) is barely loud enough to hear with a lot of people; breaks very easily as well; has no games; the memory chip you have to buy to download at least 50 songs is 30-70 dollars; AND the part that frustrates me (aside from the AGHH scratches) is the touch pad! I have to touch it several times! Waste of money, not good quality, I would never recommend it. Now I'm just stuck with this useless phone. I don't think I'll buy any more LG/verizon phones ever again.

  • Anyone know how the hell to get music from the removable disk drive on to the phone. Instructions very incomplete.

  • this phone is fantastic although it is not very userfriendly i like it very much

  • Can this phone used as a thumbdrive which is more than 128MB internal memory and does it play together by one by one please tell me all details by tomorrow night.

  • i have the chocolate phone and when i open the slide i have no picture just a white screen and no touch lights can someone please let me know what the problem is and let me know the price to fix thank you so much natasha

  • Crap. What a horrible phone. You may think the touch is cool, it's not. It's sooo frustrating, the memory is not expandable, the buttons are hella hard to send dial with, let alone send a text. I hate this phone, it's good for looks but nothing else, I'd say if you need a phone just for simple tasks like calling buy this, but i cant. To make a call its not a simple operation, hard to dial buttons, stupid touch buttons, and you need to time when you close the slider or else it will hang up soo all in all 3/10

  • Phone sucks, design is very good, but quality is below zero, after 6 months, display gone, and tuch screen some time work, and some time dont work. lg - never again

  • the problem with this is ,the screen, the speaker and it does not have loudspeaker and it has poor software,u can"t do other things while u are listerning to m.p3

  • Thinking of buying one,wot ya reckon worth the money???

  • i purchased this phone like 3 months ago..i love how it looks but it is really sucky! i had problems when i answered the phone..like i can hear the other person and they couldn't hear me! also if you do talk on the phone it seem like the volume is very low...you can't set ringtones for each person and some times i would have to turn it on/off to make it work again..when i text it is kind of hard to press the button because it feels like you would have to press it down very hard to text...besides this one didn't have a miniSD card slot but it does hold many songs and the only thing i like about it was it play my song very loud like a stereo or something of that sort..this was my first lg phone and will be my LAST!i strongly prefer samsung phones but now i am trying out my first motorola phone the krzr and it is alright i probably change phones again like always and get the motorola rocker e6 i heard it was pretty nice so yeah i suggest you guys don't buy this phone!trust me you are going to waste your money!

  • It`s a beautifull phone.........and...that`s all ! NOKIA AND SONY ERICSSON RULLZ..onestly....!!!

Can somebody please help me, does this mean i was given an old battery? I feel like i've wasted my money,,so much stress!!!!!!!!!!

  • you can upgrade the phone by puting a sd slot in it.

  • i love this phone i just wish it could hold more songs.the touch screen is wonderful idea. jamaican girl

  • I ♥ This Phone I Got It For My Birthdaii tHis Year An I Am so Pleased With It At First It Seemed a Bit Annoying As It Was Hard To Get Use to The Touch Screen I have Now Had this Phone For A Week And I Love It ... Whoever Said there Are Technical Diffuculties On tHis Phone Is Wrong :D

  • Good mobile device... Only few bugs - displaying contacts from SIM and memory in all heap, have not ability switch what i want display - from memory or from SIM or both... software dont want save contact name longer 17 symbols... Have not function make beep when battery about empty...

  • I honestly love this phone. I have the white one and I actually only bought it for its sexy looks. This phone may not have a memory card slot but who cares?? That is good to have on a phone but in this case, the Mp3 player isn't that great anyways and 128mb is good enough for pictures and ringtones. This phone does catch fingerprints but it's not that bad with the white version. If you want a phone for Mp3 capabilities, buy a Sony Ericsson walkman phone since their the best you can get in the market. Otherwise, get this phone cuz the looks and feel of this phone is superb.

  • To put Mp3s on this phone just plug the phone in with the USB cable and it should automatically load up as a mass storage device. You don't have to install anything for this to show up. Then just put your Mp3 in the music folder and your done.

  • plzzzzzz help ? i need i nwant i new phone but i seriously have no i dear what to get or to look for , i like the look ofn this phone but iver herd it has toomany problems ,,should i or shouldn't i get this phone , over all what would yous suggest ?? thanks heeaps ..

  • Just bought this fone a week ago and have had a few problems with it, the T9 dictionary tends to 'forget' the words i add to it! which is annoying also wont send msg delivery reports and wont accept JPG picture files either! the msg tone is very quiet and cant see an option on the fone for making it louder. Other than that have had no other problems with it. The keypad does have a back light! the memory isnt great on it but it is only a fone at the end of the day! Its probably not the best fone in the world and does have a few faults but what fone doesnt?

  • I love my choclate but, I like to listen to books on tape(e-books) from the liberary. Can load them but phone does not see them. Have been looking for an answer for the last week. Help!

  • it is a nice phone we all like it!!!

  • this phone is so sad.give me a break the memory is sad.the sound quality is very poor.there is no radio,in short this is a waste of money

  • This phone STINKS!! dont buy it, i read this forum before i bought it and listed to the few out there that said it was good, do not buy it constant problems, Piece of junk! worst phone ive ever owned.

  • how do you get games on it i'm o2 pay as u go

  • I've had this phone for a week and my only complain is that the battery doesn't last for too long.....2-3 days approximately

  • This the best phone i ever had its slim,it has huge memory and i love the mp3 player.

  • can somebody tell me how to get songs onto my phone plzzzzz

  • hey guyz, im thinking of buying a chocolate white phone and im asking wat language does the phone come ????

  • I've had this phone for about three months, and I love it! Although when taking pictures, it is a bit annoying since the keypad is sensitive. BUT! One bad thing about the phone is, it gets scratched a lot! so.. I wa s wondering if anyone knew a product that would get rid of scratches, from first-hand expirience?

  • To abd el kader: Obviously you know nothing about phones. Numbers and fancy names aren't everything, this phone's performance is CRAP. ADVICE TO EVERYONE !!! Whatever you do, do NOT buy this phone, you will regret it, mark my words. It's full of bugs, which make this phone impossible to use. Unless you keep your phone off, and want a toy yo look at lol...

  • i wanna tell you that this is the best phone has 1.3 megapixel cam with so big internal memory 128 mb mp3 player, bluetooth, video recording and the nicest its packedge u will get it and u will never search for the enhancment for this mobile it comes full packedge what a good think

  • Hey fellow users. I'm keen in getting this phone. Been studying on the phone the whole night already.Haha. However,I'm just wondering hows the quality of the videos... Thanks ;)

  • im being forced to buy a new phone today, im sick to death of my LG. woke up yesterday, not being able to make calls, the internal speaker just up and died. strange as i can still send calls and recieve them, just not hear them. i found the T9Dictionary terrible, it saved VERY few of my words, and several of my keypad buttons were very unresponsive. often the touch screen would go a little crazy, such as after pressung the 'up' button it would seem to lock, and continuously scroll up without me touching it. best thing about this little unit is the box it came in, its hot :P upgrading to a SonyErricson today, cant wait

  • please i need to know how to download pictures & videos from my mobile LG to the PC ?? please help as soon as possible. waiting your reply. Thx.

  • thx soo much!! lol now im so confident im gunna buy it!! xxx

  • Your right mate they ruely due break stick to sony far more reliable, lg mite aswell be an advertisement warning to tell u to get lifetime garantee!!!!!!!

  • This phone is nice and stylish, but battery seems weak having to charge it almost everyday with normal use. The best method for music on the phone though is convert EVERYTHING to "AAC+" (Amazing Quality at 48kbit, used an excellent FREE little prog called MediaCoder[use the CT AAC+ codec]). A 5mb 192kbit MP3 sounds almost identical in an under 1.5mb 48kbit AAC+.

  • It just all depends on how people use the memory its not like they lie about the specifications.

  • Just like to post an opinion saying that this phone is brill it has loadsa memory on it and looks so stylish and you can get lots of songs on it it just depnds on the MB of the song it is possible to get 50 songs on it it all depends on the MB of the song this is a really good phone so it all depends on pick of the phone as some phones are going to be faulty. Hope that helps :)

  • hey im thinking of buying this fone can u guys tell me if its a good one to buy and if it has any bad features?? and if its bad if u no another gd fone thx alot xxx

  • EVERYBODY.....stop bitching about this phone,geez its a great fone i got a white one for christmas and it soo stylish with its amazing touchpad and it can be locked so dnt panic....i can put about 20 songs on it....seriously wats wrong with that,,its a fone not an mp3 if ya want more musik buy an mp3.....its camera is nice and clear takes great shots...not blury and thats gewd enough for me.Ok i do admit at first i had a few problems with it,,it kept freezing when i went into things but i got advice and all i had to do was buy a new sim card....and had no problems with it since......i do recommend this fone for somone who wonts a very stylish fone...............and yes most likely after a while the fone with gradually become shit.....but all fones do that,,ALL FONES.Ya cant have everything on a fone now can ya....and dnt put it down just because its an LG,,its just a gewd as any other fone.......so i would definetly say 'if you like this fone ,,definetly buy it,,i love it especially the white..its very fancy and makes you feel special...hahaha,,but i have herd that the pink is nice too but i fort i would get sick of the pink,,but your choice......alrity well cya all!

  • its gr8 lookin fone ,i got it 4 crimbo, im obbsesed in fones and im only ten but this one is gr8,i can tell u. it hasnt got memory card slot, but the exteral memory is huge. i would recomed it 2 every1. Ive hd no problems. bi it!!!

  • I just got the White and i love it. The picture quality is great and the touch pad can be locked so stop complaining. It's a great phone.

  • why does everyone like this phone? it only has a 128mb internal memory. who want to have phone thats got that little memory and no card slot?

  • I plan to buy a new handphone, LG Chocolate Phone is one of my choices. But after reading other comments, I think I need to change my decision. Is this a good phone? Shall i buy it?

  • I don't use verizon, but I can't figure out to how to send picture messages. Someone please help. I thought this phone had speaker phone, but it doesn't so that irritated me, then I found out that while you are talking to someone on the phone you can't retrieve new text messages. This phone was really disappointing. This was my first LG phone and I had expected a better product from them. The look of it is great, but they really failed to meet the technical needs of today's cell phone users.

  • Pro's: - SEXY design - Touch Sensitive Buttons (cool concept) - Red, Black, & Silver combo is real smooth - Sliding mechanism is smooth too, enough so that it doesnt accidentally open out. Con's: MAJOR CON: The OS is SLOWWWWWW beyond imaginable. It takes soo frickken long to load a game, or access the internet. - Designed so that u HAVE TO keep the phone slided open to take pics. grrrr, its not that great to take pics when ur taking horizontal pics. - Touch Sensitivity is HORRIBLE. Lags, or it takes 2/3 touches to get to some functions. - Finger print magnet - NO multitask: You cant listen to music, and text. or music and browse menu's (Sony Ericsson's can) - Menu's are sh*t. - Touch pad is prone to accidental touch. - You MUST unlock the buttons to change songs. Which means that you have to take the phone out of your pocket, and THEN change the song after like 6 buttons =S. Other phones have designated mp3 buttons to change. So that its easy to change songs. - The pad activated the touch, after you slide it up. While sliding, ur fingers will press against the buttons, so you will almost ALWAYS slide the phone up, n take urself to a undesired menu. - Mp3 player is shit. Overall, the options are crap, and again, u need to unlock the phone after 2/3 buttons, and then u have to press 'option' and then 'view playlist'. All that just to change/view other songs while its playing. What the fu*k, right? - Menu's and OS looks like crap. Basic colors unless u download more themes. OVERALL: Good phone, but the OS and options are soooooo back dated. Design is GREAT, but the options are the worst. I suggest a Sony Ericsson phone like the K800/790, or the W810. Menu's are wayyyy better, and actually has a good OS. My LG chocolate is being put back in its box, and returned to my phone carrier in a few minutes. So i thought I'd leave my 2 cents. I thought it would be a sick phone, but i was wrong. the only thing sick about it, is the LOOKS. Thats it. oh by the way, the headphones and sound volume are a piece of sh*t too =) peace.

  • Plz someone help me. I want to no specific details if possible about the pros and cons of this phone. I heard that it looks really good but 9/10 of them have cetain faults.

  • dont ever ever ever ever ever ever buy this phone...it is cack...it will break, that is a promise! LG's make fridges not phone (and my fridge has just broke aswell) bastards! p.s if you do choose to buy it, ill give you my bank details and u may as well give me the money...cause you will be wasting it! ha ha

  • nice phone..if u complain if there's not enuff memory..get a real camera and mp3 player!

  • this phone is okay, thats all it is, a phone,if your looking for music this is not it, if you just want to look good talking on the phone then this is it. it works for any gsm network, cingular, att, tmobile, u can get songs on it by using the usb cable, ur cpu has to recognize it as a hard drive, then all u do is drag and drop the song u want on to the drive, its true, not too much memory but can fit some songs on there in order to make the song you want to be the ringtone, play the song u want and then while its playing go to options and it gives the option to set as ringtone

  • Man I just erased the memory by reseting it can i recover it? PLZ PLZ PLZ REPLY ME?

  • I was going to buy this phone seen as my other one has broken but after reading this it has changed my mind completely.

  • its ok to look at but the features are terrible doesn't even carry a memomry slot except for the suuped up verizon model the vx800 or something anyway...its slow,touchpad is crap!!,oh and it does have backlights to text in the dark wooptie doo for me ;( its jus a pretty phone wid no action basically!!buy something with a symbian OS or something there better phones!!

  • looks great but...after having bought it just 4 months ago, still havent found out how to put mp3 music onto phone . also no help what so ever from lg mobile help desk. now back to using old phone and trying to sell lg ...not an easy-use phone for anything other than simply a "cool looking" phone ..full stop!!!

  • Should have more security features, ie. the touch pad lock, shouldn't be operative only if the slide is down, but overall, preventing unathorized persons from messing around with the keys once slide goes up, especially the sensitive screen/pad along with other security feature,that is more effective to an extent.Last but not least it should allow for down loaded rings to be an option as a message alert.

  • I dont know how to turn speaker on ( or may be this phone doesnt even have that function). And one more thing is I can not use my music transfer by bluetooth as ringtone ... this is kindda suck though

  • Am I able to use this phone with AT&T?

  • It's very fragile and difficult to operate.

  • ie got this phoone its realy good but it delets my contacts? can anyone tell me why?

  • P/S: you can't post text in a dark room coz not like other phones, the number pads doesn't light on, only the navigator keys with lights..yes, i'm kinda dissapoint too like other people who bought this phone.

  • i want to have this fon for it's looks and design at first. looks very nice and cool. but it's not as good as you thought thou. the touch pad is way too sensitif, it jump a few menus just by an "accidently" touch, and it don support photos took by certain cameras. but above that, you might just like this phone.

  • this phone is very weak in performance and features ,elegant in shape i didn't like it

  • sucks sevice lost all times i exchange after 4 days for sonyericsson

  • hi, i've just got this phone today, it is pretty good, but my bluetooth doesn't seem to work, but the guy where i bought it says i have to charge for 10 hours before i use it. so i'll charge it and see if it works, if not i'll trade it for one that does!!!!

  • I owned this phone for 2 days - it was awful! I've had about 5 phones so far this year, and this was even worse than the Samsung D900.. At first I thought the sleek looks would make up for the terrible UI, lack of themes, lack of ringtones, terrible games, and hoorendous texting system... but it didn't.. I thought, on seeing all the negatove comments about this phone 'Ooh I bet they're too fussy, I'll love it!' - but I didn't.. it's awful. The heat activated 'buttons' are too sensitive, the keypad is too hard to press down, especially swapping between the touchpad and keypad during a text.. the keys are badly positioned and don't allow you to text comfortably.. and before you accuse me of having fat man fingers - I'm a girl! I have dainty hands lol, and even I couldn't make this phone's buttons press down properly. To anyone considering getting this phone - PLEASE don't! Don't ignore the negative reviews on this site - they're here for a reason :) If you're one of the few KG800 owners that love the phone, then fair play to you, glad it works for you :)

  • HEY EVERYONE. it has only been 3 weeks since i bought this phone. the things that frustrate me is that it has a VERY SMALL memory - 128 MB, NO speakerphone, NO conference call, No timer, NO speed dial(altho i alr tried putting it) and the keypad is not very good for msging. ya thats basically everything. but the MP3 is really good. the sound system ROCKS MANNN!! haha. yeah so its a OK phone la. but the design ROCKS.the touchpad is cool too. NOT BAD OVERALL LA.

  • Hi everyone! I'm getting this phone in a week and just want to know a little bit more about it. I heard that it looks really good but after a while the faults kick in. could someone please either email me or talk to me on msn. i'd really like to knnow more about the phone. Thanks!!!

  • Is there any chance to save all SMS from mobile on my computer ?

  • Hi ppl!!!, :). I got the lg kg800 bout xmas time and i brought it because it looked really nice and smart. I still think its gd but there is some problems such as I can not seem 2 get onto the internet, any help??. And btw can anybody tell me how much songs i can download onto it thanx

  • ive had a KG800 for about 5 or so months now, there have been times where its played up but nothing major like software crashes or freezing. sometimes ive called people and i cant hear them but they can hear me (only twice), sometimes its turned itself off when opened or closed (about 6 times so far). Perhaps some people have had the bad luck of just getting a faulty handset, but then that said ive just read a fair few bad comments on here so its not just the odd one or two. i do however really like this phone, its got decent memory (enough for me anyway), it looks fantastic, and the camera is alright. Though i am dissappointed to find there is no speakerphone option and sometimes the touch-sensitive buttons can be a little annoying (in humid conditions the buttons sometimes mistake some droplets of water for idle fingers) All in all, it looks great, performs well enough for my everyday needs and is a fairly decent mobile. Happy customer...

  • Having problem sending photos have spoken to provider not helping at all? any ideas?

  • hey i had dis fone 4 xmas and it wont let me change the ringtone! i click on a song and press set as ringtone and when i ring it it plays ring1! it is driving me mad!!! if u can help me email me at [email protected] thankyou

  • One question please!!!! How do I upload songs & use the internet. For some reason it is saying to check my network. Help Pleaseeeeeeeeee!!!

  • dont frustrate yourself, g�ve this ph a miss, rather buy a real chocolate and enjoy it, its a joke

  • horrible and frustrating beautiful phone...i do not,i repeat,DO NOT recommend this phone.ive had it since 31st of Dec last year and im contemplating on changing to the Nokia 7373.its definitely a beautifull thang without brains!

  • to be honest, when i bought this phone i got it cos its a really nice design and i think its really stylish, but little did i know the software was gonna go on it 3 times in 6 months. i still sort of think its an alright phone, iv still got it, but iv also just bought an 8800 aint had it long enuff to give my opinion.

  • Hello Every 1. I Think That LG KG800 Chocolate Is Very Very Very beautiful Design, Features And Performance I Like it ..All And All LG Is the Best And My Heart Is Always Open For LG Chocolate Pink!!! Bye LG

  • i have a question i just got this phone and its my first slider, when the phone is open is there supposed to be some movement between the two sides? also on average how many songs can this phone hold? i have put 2 songs and it says the memory is full. final question is there anyway to erase the sounds and the images that the phone comes with? thank you very much

  • I love my white chocolate. My boyfriend bought it for me about 3mths ago and its just now starting to act up. When Im sending a text message it turns off in the middle of the text, almost everytime...ughhh!!! Sometimes when someone calls me they can hear me but I cant hear them and I have to turn it off and on again. WTH!! Im still in love with it, I just wished that it wouldnt mess up on me so much. I hate to say it but looks like Im gonna buy me a different phone. ITS FREAKEN FRUSTRATING...=) The chocolate is like finding a beautiful grl with no brains. Its all good when you look at it but once you get to talkin to it there's nothing inside...it doesnt work!!!

  • nop..u can only listen to mp3 by opening the MP3.If u leave MP3 u wont be able to listen songs..dat..the..screwing part..

  • Zoomcell is a fraud. Do not buy anything from zoomsteal. You will be sorry if you do.

  • Its a great phone but can be a bit touchy and also wondering if its possible to transfer my text messages via the usb cable to my computer before deleting them

  • the first time when i got it.. which was about 6 months ago, i was thrilled. the touch feature, the red lights, everything was perfect. then i realised the problem. the text messaging. if you where to text very fast, you would probably miss out a few letters as the buttons takes quite some effort to press. i lost the handphone after one month. -_-

  • cant get the gprs and mms settings to work,any suggestions??

  • 2lee im sorry to tell u this but this fone doesnt have a loud speaker. Its very disappointing lg should have worked a bit harder. Im 12 years, i have never had a fone in my life. I wanted to buy the lg but since my friend told me it was not nice and it broke in 2 days, i changed my mind. Now im thinking of buyin the nokia 7390 or 7373. Can some1 tell me which fone is good for me? remember i have never had a fone in my life. BYE GUYS.

  • i've had the lgkg800 for about a month now, was pretty cool at first,loved it but now wats irritating is that the touchpad is acting up,sometimes its almost like its pressing itself and it goes 'back' wihout me touching anything,especially while im busy with something,totally annoying. im having a problem finding the loud speaker,can anyone help me with that,will be very much appreciated. i also cant find the option that allows me to continue with other things while listening to the mp3 player.help please!! otherwise everything else is cool.just think twice before buying it.good luck ya'll!!!!!!!!!!

  • I just got this phone yesterday, can someone tell me that if I still can listen to MP3 even if I leave the MP3 player without turning it off?

  • what does it mean when the touch pad is not working but got red light on?

  • I think the ph is fantastic, highly recommend it!

  • when i got this phone i put my USB inside but when i got it out it broke sads for me my name is badluck it is so ***************

  • I hate this phone, it always freezes, when I'm talking on the phone I can't even read my messages, that sucks as hell. it kools alright but scratches easily. don't waste your money DOOOOON"TTTT!!!

  • if your wondering how to put pictures to your contacts its easy- when taking a photo change the pixels to 72x70 and that is small enough to fit as a contact photo. i read the contact photos dont take jpeg but bmg files. anyways take a photo in that pixel format and it works.

  • and if everyone is wondering how to put photos to your contact. iv only had this pnohe 1 day and have worked it ou. when taking a photo set the pixels to 72x70 and its a much smaller photo. and fo the contact its doesnt take jpeg files only bmg.

  • ......can anyone tell me how long it takes to video 20sec 30 sec .........can anyone help me.......

  • i have no idea what you are all complainging about. i got this phone yesturday in black. its a great phone and the touch pad is greta its really user friendly and is great value for the price. if u go on virgin 10 a month for 24 month phone end up costing u $240. wich is great price. the only downfall i can see is it attracts fingerprints wich are easily wiped off. grab this phone its well worth it. who said lg cant make phone pfffft

  • Its the best fone ever and never freezez

  • I jz got this phone yesterday and so far so good...the pads are sensitive but if you know how to use it (like lock the pad).. it's perfectly fine! I love the style.. Can someone tell me if this phone has loudspeaker option and how to access it??? Thanks :)

  • Sexy phone. but that is about it. iv had this fone about 3 months and it has been playing up already. the screen crashes everytime i slide it up. my advice is stay well clear

  • yup right dont waste ur money for this cellphone, i just got it like a month ago now it's dead, keypad to small hard for text messaging, for some reason often froze dunno why, did u guys have de same problem with me, if u makin call and it wasnt thru than it froze?

  • Just got it, LOVE AT FIRST SITE. got the white one, sexy as hell!!

  • Yes the keypad does light up but only if the power saving option is switched off. U can do that by going to the settings menu.

  • This Phone does not have a mind of its own, you people just have fat fingers. The phone does not randomly freeze, and the buttons work just fine. Maybe being more careful with a �280 pound phone might help ? Like Mine 8 months l8r its still working better than ever !

  • can i lock the touch pad with password to prevent other ppl using?? Anyone know?

  • Kg800 will be avail. on Telstra prepaid as of Feburary. Pink & Black are avail. RRP. is $299

  • hey, my brother just got this phone this afternoon and it seems great except for one thing. the touch sensitive buttons are very annoying and you can't seem to do anything without accidentally knocking one of them and being thrown into another menu. i would recommend the samsung d900 its not that much more expensive but the camera is double the quality and no touch sensitive buttons.. yay!

  • Just wondering if anyone knows how to answer call waiting on this phone and how to download ringtones directly from the phone - this phone is confusing! Email me please - thanks!

  • SCroll down to Justine's post for how to put mp3's as ringtone =]. and does any1 else get a "insert sim card" on their tg800??

  • I have the tg800,, can anybody tell me how to put my downloaded mp3's as my ringtones, without having to download it from the service provider for an arm and a leg.

  • my wife used this phone and i wonder how to manage the shortcut menu?just wanna say that this phone was great...

  • Yeh the phone can play mp3's as ringtones but it doesn't ring that loud...don't know if that has been answered yet but, meh... For those who can't get games onto your phone use this to help...follow the steps clearly otherwise it won't work..if u need to ask questions just ask me personally... Once you've downloaded games open the open the LG Contents bank folder, open contents folder, add a folder titled games and just save all ur games in that folder 1)Open the 'config' file from the 'LG Contents Bank' in notepad 2) Save a copy of the file before editing it, save as 'config.bak' and cahnge the file type to 'all files' before clicking save 3)Once you've done that, re-open the original 'config' file and edit the following(In the order): *do not add---> " in any of the following -Change "EXIST_JAVA=N" to "EXIST_JAVA=Y" -Change "MODEL_NAME=XXXX" to "MODEL_NAME-KG800" 4) save file as, change file type to 'all types' 5) at the end of the document add "MIDletX-LG-Contents: KG800" 6) Save file as, once again change the file type to 'all types' --->The next step is done on the phoneHope it makes sense, i kinda cut it down form it's original. The original confused me, heps. lolz...Good luck

  • Dear owner of the lemon, Maybe you have just been incredibly unlucky and had the one in five that doesn't work. Mine works perfectly.

  • Where do I start???? This phone has been an absolute lemon! I have had it replaced 3 times so far and once again i have a lemon. From this point forward I will refer to the phone as my lemon. At the moment the only useful thing about it is that it a great paperweight or doorstop. Some of the problems my lemon has had include inverted colours, bad reception, freezing, lines on the screen, jumbled screen, microphone and speakers either scratchy or not working at all. I do not recommend this lemon at all. Does anyone else have any problems with their lemons?

  • i have this phome right now, it okish, but very delicate, and the touch screen sometimes sticks lol. but its very sexy doh!!

  • I cant seem to put a photo into my contacts. If I add a contact to my phone and want to put there picture there, it doesnt let me go to the photo's i have taken. Help!!
