  • how can i change my LG ks20's language from German to English?

  • Avoid this phone like the plague. I bought mine a couple of years ago and it has been totally unreliable. When closing IE program window and other windows it does not close the actual program so you have to keep going into memory>running programs and using the task manager to close them. Then it likes to turn itself off for no reason at all and reboot itself. It freezes a lot of the time, often it refuses to connect to either my wifi network or my mobile network's internet connection. Tyr to make a voice call using skype and the whole phone will freeze...in fact it has even frozen when I am just trying to answer an ordinary incoming call from another mobile (with no applications running to slow it down). Screen will not align properly - basically a pile of rubbish.

  • I have this phone too, i want to change my proxy server to register for internet?

  • I am user of lgks20. but after a few months its being grounded according to technician. and the battery is affected. what should i do?.

  • My lg ks20 is grounded. what should i do?. the battery is not working anymore. y its happen?

  • I have this phone. and I recently got a 3G Sim card.. How do i setup so I can access internet through the sim card data plan. rather than using wifi -_- CRY !

  • hey bro first you have to change your service provider it should be 3g.den u can make a 3g call. but person should have 3g mobile and 3g network.

  • I have my KS20 with WM 6.5 on it.. cuz I really hate 6.0 and it's very slow.. finally 6.5 is pretty faster but the problem is now it doesn't has the feature hand writing recognition!! what to do ?? :(

  • i miss this phone so much! been a great phone for the past year. went through so much with it. the keyboard is small but i got adjusted to it and i typed alot faster after a week. overall great phone in my opinion. very laggy, but still a great phone. very organized and this is the phone that made me like windows mobile!the battery life seemed great for me and ontop of that, it is very customizable!

  • this phone is worst phone i have ever heard even, most of the time it is freezing, never ever buy lg again

  • I would like to know the about touch screen accessories for KS-20 . Because my phone Touch screen is not working already ! i would like to get your opinion can repair or not ? Thanks A Lot !

  • well.. HOW TO DO VIDEO CALL ?? have changed my network band mode to HSDPA ( 3G ) .. but then,how to do video call?? cant find a single option available... please assist,any1... thank you

  • User problem.

  • This phone sucks. Don't buy it. have been using it for 2 years and it frustrates me just to send a text msg, the display is too small. The phone becomes too hot during a call and most of the time hangs. it is also very slow and freezes alot. the only gd thing is battery life, however strongly NOT RECOMMENDED!!!

  • can i use a standart button on this phone?? nor qwerty type??

  • just find onother keyboard software in www.mobile9.com..

  • i think this phone are good... no problem... i used this phone more than 1 year,its greatest phone that i ever used..

  • I think people are complaing a bit too much about this phone. The worst thing about it, is that the screen scratches too easily. That can be fixed with a screen protector. Battery life was bad, but became better when I replaced the battery. Now I get 2-3 days with quite heavy use. Ok, it gets hot with 3G use but I'm not sure it's harmful to the phone. I have had no problems with it. It hangs on occasion when I use certain apps. A hard reset of the phone would prolly fix it. I've also modified it (new keyboards, task manager, dialer, hardware ok button etc). So I never have to use the pen. All in all I'm satisfied with the phone.

  • i just saw afriend using the LG KS20 phone and i loved it. not found in my country Kenya in East Africa. May i know the prices in us dollars for anew phone or second phone? Anybody help. ajanga e-mail: [email protected]

Great phone and I think you will be happy with it.

  • existing theme not really nice. you might want to try out nicely theme "SPB Mobile Shell v3.5.3" furthermore also install "SPB Keyboard v4.0" too optimized for finger input. After a year untouch my ks20 in the box,now i can get it out and alive just likes i just bought fresh from the market.

If anyone else have any solutions, kindly let me know so that i could improvise my mobile. Thanks In Advance Naren

I think it had a problem with the battery so I ordered one and still the same. The battery sign always showed half charged.

  • I have held the ks20, bought it with a french version of the o.s buti have failed to convert it to english,. any one with a clue? Wonder why lg cant give any support.

  • How do I view PDF files on this phone??

  • Best PDA for.. call 2G/3G, internet, email, chat, call on skype, wifi, java, office, camera, full touch scr, ext GPS, maps ... fantastic...

  • have used this phone for more than 18 months now. upgraded to winmo 6.5 using a freely available rom. this phone has EVERYTHING except gps. if you are willing to over look this feature, the phone will not disappoint you. the music player is a bit screechy with a loudspeaker but it works gr8 with a handsfree. its a good solid winmo imo and it looks good too. ppl WILL stare at it :)the screen is a little hard but u get used to it and does interfere in any way. if u ask me install some good winmo apps and i guarantee u ll be very happy with how it runs...i had to replace the motherboard once within warantee.. got it replaced free of cost. i have very rough handling and have dropped in a couple of times but the build quality is quite good and i escaped with minor scratches on the phone. now after 18 months of usage, the mic needs replacing .. apparently the caller hears a buzzing sound during the call.. like a bee stuck inside the phone. once that is replaced the phone will be good as new. bottom line. use the innumerable winmo apps and customise the ks20 to love it

  • help... how to hard start the LG ks20

  • The phone of my dreams. Better than any PDA. Too bad it's stuck with that Windows Mobile s**t. A Linux would be much better.

  • Can this phone view a PDF file? It said so in the specs that it has PDF viewer but I can't get it to veiw a PDF file

  • this phone doesn't have an Accelerometer sensor for auto-rotate

  • its all in the setting "remove programs" i recommend SPB keyboard for this phone or you can just google it in rapidshare or other similar sites for free download with keygen/crack try also ZOOMBOARD

  • it can work as a modem infinitely because it gets power supply via USB cabl

  • hello,please can someone tell me if there is a possibility to write on screen only by hand?

  • How 2 customise ring tones

  • I kinda solved by disabling the phone. Then at least on 3rd part browser manages to connect through wifi. Internet Explorer still doesnt. Also Opera mini 4 doesn't seem to want to install with wifi. The progress just stops after a while. Doesn't this version of Opera work with this phone? The latest Opera mobile 9.7 didn't work at all. The phone's mini kb is hidden p� the browser, and it also crashes after a while. Any other browser that is as good as Opera? Also I managed to make an empty conenction profile to use for internet, which seems to work even when the phone is on. How good is Wefi? Has anyone tried it?

  • How do you connect through wifi? I can find hotspots and connect, but Internet Explorer or 3rd party browser won't use the wifi connections. I have tried many different connection settings but it just doesnt work. Pleas tell me how to surf via wifi!

  • You can not simply change the language. there is already a lot of feedback on this in this forum. search for previous posts.

  • Hi, If I want to install new keyboard software, do I have to remove the original one. (i don't want to do that, just in case the new one does not work. can I simply go back to the old one if the new software does not work. If anyone has information on this...please let me know.

  • does any one knows about the "fpsece" application? it is a PS1 emulator for winmo. I was wondering if it works on this phone?

  • added : u can use sim manager to copy sim cntcs to ks20. its a freeware. or sktool (shareware)

  • well, owned this toy for a few months & not regretting it. i personally thinks this phone is a good entry lvl for winmo. if u want something that plays gud mp3 or take photo, get a mp3 player or digital cam. :') or if u want a faster device, scrape ur pocket for touch hd or omnia at least. tho, i bet the crashes of software is still possible. i've installed spb shell 3, sktools, advanced config, tcpmp, skyfire, thumcal, vito sms-chat, resco explorer & nitrogen on a stock rom. works like a charm for me. with occasional hard reset (if needed) or soft reset. my 2cents, know ur toys well. it helps. (as for me, i'm still looking ways to optimise this baby) by the way all the above downloading & installing not used by any pc help. yes, direct download to this baby. *cheers*

  • Thats great phone from lg by this price.

  • what about the battery????

  • Help needed. my phone fell is some water.it was soaked completely. I left to dry for a day, then i put it on. it stayed one for a few minutes, but the back light was dim, and it was not calibrating. Now it is not powering on. Please tell me what to do. I was thinking about buying a new display, but how would I know if that's the problem? Thanks guys!

  • I agree, Windows Mobile is slow. I'm waiting to get an unlocked Android phone.

  • I bought this phone last February but got very pissed off because of its fvcking slow performance, now I sold it to someone else and bought a symbian based phone instead. Windows Mobile phones are really fvcking slow and you cannot rely on it. Music is not that good either even when using a headphones...

  • I found out it's the headphone adapter I bought. Whenever that is plugged in, the phone will auto-dial. Not sure why.

  • maybe a virus.. try to hard reset your set..

  • Anyone experiencing this? Whenever I play an mp3, whether music or a podcast, randomly the phone's dialer program will start up and it will auto-dial the most recent entry. Doesn't matter what program I use to play the mp3, the phone will auto-dial. Very annoying.

  • i can only help you out with a few questions sorry - yes mp3s can be used as ringtone. - the quality of the audio is fine by itself.it's not a specified as music so my N70 ME was way better to blast tunes. one crappy feature of the headset is it's really lousy for calling. you have to take it off when an incoming call while you're listening to music. hope that helps

  • I had one of these phones. One day I forgot it somewhere outside, and I was so tired of it that did not even bother to look after it. So, basically I lost that phone and did not feel bad at all. Anything that you install on it, it won't work. And sometimes when someone tries to call you, it will show that you are busy without actually being.

  • Download Spb Home Shell 3 its the best thing for this phone.

  • never buy ks20, worst phone ever... have it about 6 month, constant crushes no firmware updates, totally buggy os...

  • Hi, I have already downloade three versions of de adobe reader from the adobe website, but none of them will install.

  • well i had this ks20 for roughly 2 months and i've come to appriciate a lot while tinkering and playing with it and finding out different functions. My problems with this are the battery life. If your a consistent user of the phone carry your charger the battery life goes fast. Also I was trying to play videos on it and wasn't successful. I know the different formats the window media uses,but still unsuccessful. If anyone can assist me with this problem on how to play the right format for it, please send some pointers. Over all its a nice phone.

  • Hi everyone. I'm seventeen years old and as far, believe it or not, I haven't had any mobiles yet. Now I've decided to buy one with touchscreen but I don't know which one would suit me. I'm thinking over this and a latter one, the LG KP500 Cookie. The KS20 has "Microsoft Windows Mobile 6.0 Professional" but I really don't have a clue what it means and how I'd use it. I'm going to travel 30 hours so I need a phone that is able to entertain a teenager. Which one do you think I'd purchase? Oh, and I'm not gonna buy any other phones for about a million years so it really should not go outta fashion for a while.... And my last question's that both mobiles have Word, Excel, and PowerPoint but can I use them as I use them in a computer? I mean, for example can I write essays and formulations? Or is only this one able for that?

  • Does LGKS20 have a voice clarity and/or noise cancellation system? How is the voice call quality if using a noisy area?

  • I am using KS20 for last 3 months. Its seems too good WM to me. Yes, its true that sometime its hang, but if you open lots of programs and dont close it in proper way than it even happen in normal PC, forget about the WM. I heard i lost of issues like bluetooth, sounds, camera, hang etc. just to let you know i havent found any problem like this in last three months. About the sound quality? its good enough as a phone. Camera is one issue at night mode, but at day light its also good enough, some time better than lots of other phone. about price? you cant compare it with any other WM in the world. at last if you want to have a WM with full satisfaction with a reasonable price thn go for it. its smart, handy and at last but not least one of the best WM I have ever use.

  • To: tamiyak Q : i wanna ask about ks 20 battery..how long it can life in usual usage? A : my battery life is between 1-2 days. Q : How ks20 battery compared with o2atom life or SE P1? A : compare to SE P1i, much better P1i..usually i get 2-3 days on P1i. Q : Do you ever have trouble with it's touch screen? A : No..i never have trouble with it's touch screen. The screen is responsive enough. But the main issue is on direct sunlight because it's hard to see on direct sunlight. Q : And if this phone is used for internet browsing,how it's display..is letter in it's screen is big enough to be read? A : yes..the screen is big enough to read. KS-20 have a good dot pitch so no problem in read text. i prefer SE P1i if u search the wifi set. only step back is the 3G connection compare to HSDPA. Makasih kembali.. :) regards ian

  • to ian, So your 29 then hehehe anyway, what is PCM? what do you think of SPB and pointui Home2? besides your ks20 do u have other mobile phones, what is it? and last one i hope u don't mind or not offended but i was just wondering what is your sexuality? i know "ian" is a male name but i know some women uses male nick.

  • To: Eyan A : what 3rd party applications are installed in your ks20 and how old r u(if you don't mind)? Q : not much apps that installed on my KS20,i considering the stability and crash issue if i installed to many and untrusted apps. 3rd party apps that i use: - S2U - Fring - ebuddy - yamme - wisbar advance - wisbar advance desktop - call firewall - nitrogen - gsp player (with additional plug ins) - google maps - Opera - PCM - Touch response(just for try out,coz someone here asking that apps) How old i am?still under 30 years old.. ^__^ To: PJ A : the technical always make an excuse, then suddenly i realize that he didn't understand about the phone it self.... DISAPPOINTED.... Q : That's sad.. i guess LG should give the product knowledge to their CS. Maybe you should make a complaint at a newspaper, i think they will listen. Thanks GOD there's an internet and google. lol regards ian

  • Hi... i just buy LG KS20, at the first time it was very hard for me to use... then i go to the service center then when i'm going there.... the technical always make an excuse, then suddenly i realize that he didn't understand about the phone it self.... DISAPPOINTED.... Thank you

  • to ian, hi, i have read all your posts and i was glad that it all answered my questions but i was just wondering what 3rd party applications are installed in your ks20 and how old r u(if you don't mind)?

  • To: Ernest A : try this link: cgi.ebay.com/2x-Stylus-Touch-Pen-for-LG-KS20-KS-­20_W0QQitemZ230335697791QQcmdZViewItemQQimsxZ200­90407?IMSfp=TL090407152002r33367 hope that's help

  • Hi, It's the black end of the stylus that broke off. it is still attached to the chroome pen, it's 2-3 mm of the round tip (black end) that broke. I have seen other stylus in stores but not the original, so they don't fit. p.s: I live in Suriname, that's South America... i orderd my phone online from the USA. We don't have a LG retail store here. If you happen to come accros a website that sells the original, I would like to hear from you.

  • To:Ernest Q : Dear Ian, thank you for your response...your a life saver. My phone is in German...I'm doing my best learning German. WEIRED THING:i have the phone for a week now and yesterday the tip of the stylus just broke off. unbelievable!! i used it carefully all the time..so i don't get it! However, I dit notice that the stylus ends at the input of the charger. I'm thinking that the heat that is created when charging, somehowe damaged the tip of the stylus. it broke off like a pice of biscuit. I used a nail file to polish the sharp tip, so i could use it for now, wile a look for another. A : your very welcome. ^__^ That's strange..my stylus is working just fine. Need a lot of heat to melt your stylus tip and the charging input is not creating any heat. which one is broken,the black one or the chromed one? if the black one,try insert the stylus than rotate the the stylus to the left or right just like tighten a bolt than try to pull it out, maybe it help. Don't use sharp tip so replace the stylus. For temporary use, you can use other stylus. I use SE P990 stylus (not the original part) for my daily use, cost me less than US $3 or Rp 25.000. Have you try to go to LG retail store to flash your set to an English version and replace your stylus?

  • please guys, i do not online everyday so i can not answer your question ASAP. I'm not the customer service guys.. lol To: Ernest Q : How do you make a link/shortcut? I did try something; i copied the dictionary program file and placed it in the start-up folder in the windows folder. the program did show up in the starmenu, but when i open it, the dictionaries are not available. A : don't copy the file, but create a shortcut.if you copy the file than the program thinks the other file is in the same directory that your file placed. To create a shortcut, you can do this via file explorer, choose you're file that you want to create a shortcut than tap the screen 2 sec choose "copy", change the directory to windows\start menu then tap the screen 2 sec, choose "paste shortcut". That's it.. To: Anonymous Q : do I need to install an anti-virus program, are does this phone already has it. if yes, what is a good one and is it free for download. A : No,it doesn't have anti virus in it. I'm not using anti virus, but i read that mostly the anti virus program are licensed so you must buy it. i think there are a few that free but I'm not sure they support the program. try the shareware program. To: Rudo Q : How to hard reset KS20?do you mean I must re-install the software? A : try to see 3-5 pages behind, i already answer the hard reset thing in previous post. if you hard reset the cell, than YES you have to install the 3rd party program again because hard reset means that your set are back to factory default set when you first buy it, 3rd party software and all other files including message, phone book, music, setting, etc will be deleted. So..backup your data first. I don't have issue like yours, so i can not have a better solution. Sorry.. To: Ama Q : Think that you are an expert of LG KS20 so I'd like to ask just basic questions, please. "Does KS20 have good material (i.e hard to break) of screen, plastic and metal (if it had)?. Is it strong enough just in case I drop the phone?" A : no ama, I'm not the expert here, xdadeveloper.com user are the expert. I'm just a normal user that know a little bit more information, but thanks though.. :) This is a strange question, i don't really know if this is have a strong material or not, because i never try to drop it.. :) Generally, the body is made from plastic with a chrome in the side. i guess they made from a good solid plastic material. the screen cover is made from plastic, so my suggestion is to protect your lens with screen protector. i think it have a strong material in the outside, so it will hold if you ACCIDENTALLY drop it(i don't know about the inside material). :) To: uekiginta Q : is this phone can read Chinese msg ? or can write Chinese msg ? compare wit the Lg ku990 ? which is better ? A : i don't know. i never receive message in Chinese language. Maybe other user have the experience. sorry.. KU 990 or more known as Viewty are a good cell. Better on the camera because it have 5MP n have larger screen, but it doesn't have wifi and OS. I'm looking for the OS type so that's why i choose KS20. Both of them have issue on low output speaker and battery. If you doesn't want to be worried so much to a virus, complex application, and much better camera than go for KU990. OS=Operating System

  • is this phone can read chinese msg ? or can write chinese msg ? compare wit the Lg ku990 ? which is better ? pls reply soon .. thx

  • Hi Ian, Think that you are an expert of LG KS20 so I'd like to ask just basic questions, please. "Does KS20 have good material (i.e hard to break) of screen, plastic and metal (if it had)?. Is it strong enough just in case I drop the phone?" FYI, I am on O2 mini S for 3.5 years now and willing to change one with this affordable pocket PC phone. I have dropped it many times until the the day comes, the screen is broken. It is not touch screen anymore. However, I can still use it by using its keyboard. Just wondering....KS 20 is strong enough meanwhile it doesn't have QWERTY. Thanksss.....please reply asap

  • To Anonymous: How to hard reset KS20?do you mean I must re-install the software? FYI, its not in the sleep mode actually, but it goes to shutdown and cannot switch on the device by pressing the power button, but i have to unplug the battery and plug it again to the device and finally press the power button, but I thought its not a good thing to do. Please reply... Thx

  • do I need to install an anti-virus program, are does this phone already has it. if yes, what is a good one and is it free for download.

  • Ian thanks for your post. I do have another question: I installed a dictionary, but i dit it on the external memory because the datbases are large. the thing is: I want the dictionary in the start menu. How do you make a link/shortcut. I did try something; i copied the dictionary program file and placed it in the start-up folder in the windows folder. the program did show up in de starrmenu, but when i open it, the dictionaries are not available. because they are on the external memory, not on the phone internal memory. so, how do I crate a shortcut in the start menu. (i want to keep de database in the external memory) Thanks.

  • To: nick Q : can i know how to perform a hard reset or retore factory default? A : i already answer in the previous post.please search it first. Q : has it got gps? A : No, it doesn't have GPS. To: luke Q : Is it complicated because i am not very good with those kind of things? A : windows mobile are a little bit complicated for the 1st time user, but basically similar to windows desktop. Q : Are there games/apps you can download like on the iphone? A : i don't know what game in iphone, but many game that you can install.but basically not the action,racing or RPG coz it doesn't have keypad.game like card,chess,bubble game is the game that suit with this kind of phone. Q : Is the mp3 player good in it? A : it use windows media player, but you can install other free apps. Notes that this set is not good in sound output. i give 6 in 10.

A : i'm from indonesia, so i can not answer your question.sorry. for better knowledge/experience about this product,go to LG retail store n have it for a try. regards ian

  • can i know how to perform a hard reset or retore factory default? has it got gps?

  • I am thinking of buying a smart phone and have seen this for a good price. I have a few things though before I am sure i will buy it. Is it complicated because i am not very good with those kind of things? Are there games/apps you can download like on the iphone? Is the mp3 player good in it? Is it easy to install different theme type of software like ifonz? Is it possible to buy from england or will it have to be online? If its all positive i will most definetly buy it. Thanks

  • To: Loverly7 your very welcome. :) To: Ernest Q : is it possible to uninstall the current version (german) en simply instal the new Enlish version? are is it more complex? A : Changing the languange is much-much more complex. This question related to flashing your cell with english version OS. See my previous posting on how to flash it. For much more richer information, you can go to xdadeveloper.com. there's someone that have the unbranded english version flash file. Please note the risk if you want to flash it. Once again, this is only as far what i know. Please try to search on the net for better understanding. regards ian

  • Tx for the answer and the tecs stuff. Now I pretty better understand.

  • Hi, read quite a bit about this problem after posting my last question (about the language) and get that it's not that easy. But, if I could find a CD with the enlisch version, is it possible to uninstall the current version (german) en simply instal the new Enlish version? are is it more complex? Because i got a CD in the package. I'm guessing the operating system is on it as wel (but just in german). so I would just have to find someone with an Enlish version.

  • I just received the phone, but it's in German. The manual is in german also. just can't put it in English. Can someone help me. I'm soooooo angry right now.

  • this is correcting my previous answer. To: Loverly7 Q : So as a user do u find it smooth enough and what u think about the answer time from the cell, cause I heard that sometime it takes 2 sec or more after making a selection on the screen for Lg ks20 to respond?! I wanna know if that happened to you? A : maybe i miss understood your question, sorry coz I'm from Indonesia so I'm not that good in English. Okay..what ever type your cell, it depends on spec and program it self to load. It depends how many RAM available for you to use, the processor speed, and the complexity of the program it self. All program need time to load their application before running. If you use many application at the same time and than it take many RAM resource than your set will become lag and there's a delay, it's similar like on PC. If you specific ask me, is this set is good and responsive enough? than my answer is yes, scale 7 of 10. regards ian

  • To: freshair Q : Please tell me that app (to make it have vibrate respond when i touch it). A : try to go to freewarepocketpc.net. i'm sure u'll find it there. i already try it and works on my set. Q : more question: How can select and delete multipple names in the contact? A : i still can't found the tool to help you. Q : Can I sellect only contacts in phone or only contact in SIM? A : use other application to select what you want to show between phone memory. regards ian

  • Please tell me that app (to make it have vibrate respond when i touch it). more question: How can select and delete multipple names in the contact? Can I sellect only contacts in phone or only contact in SIM? It make me crazy. Last, really appriciate your works. Thanks alots!

  • To: Loverly7 Q : I heard that sometime it takes 2 sec or more after making a selection on the screen for Lg ks20 to respond? A : i don't know about other's but mine is responsive enough. No lag between answering or making call. To: Sombre7 Q : I can use it as a modem and share my internet connection with my laptop with an usb cable? A : Yes you can. To: freshair Q : Can it auto rotate the screen when U rotate the phone? A : No u can't.KS 20 doesn't have accelerometer for auto rotate, u have to rotate it manually. To: freshair Q : Does it have respond vibration when U touch the screen like Cookie KP500? A : on standard application, no it can not vibrate but u can use 3rd party application to make it happen. come on guys..i'm alone here.. share u'r knowledge and experience with other. regards ian

  • If u can answer questions relating LG ks20 I can guess that u have one? And I'm probably not wrong on it. So as a user do u find it smooth enough and what u think about the answer time from the cell, cause I heard that sometime it takes 2 sec or more after making a selection on the screen for Lg ks20 to respond?! I wanna know if that happened to you?

  • Thanks Ian for your advise. If really understand what you've said I can use it as a modem and share my internet connection with my laptop with an usb cable?

  • 1 more question. Can it auto rotate the screen when U rotate the phone?

  • Does it have respond vibration when U touch the screen like Cookie KP500. I love this function alot but look like its doesn't have that function, does it?

  • To: Anonymous Q : i have this HPhone but the power is too low...and alwas hang..when i opened EA..and cant open MPEG4 i dont know why.. A : like my previous post..are u installing untrusted apps?try to hard reset your phone..please search in my previous post. note that u will lose all information on u'r cell. To: Loverly7 Q : I wanna know if its ui is fast (smooth) enough? if all the features really worth it? if its touch function always needs the stylus to work? A : for really fast answer..try to go to your LG retail store n have it 4 a try. i think that's was the best answer i can give coz i don't want to miss lead you. i'm not the sales guy.. lol :p for stylus: it's depend..r u using other apps?for standard n no 3rd party application than my answer is: Yes..75% of your activity you must do with stylus. but than again, you can tweak it with 3rd application. To: Sombre7 Q : Could someone tell me, how can I set my Lg ks20 to work as a wifi modem so I can access the net through it with my laptop? A : you can not use wifi for modem because LG KS20 is not an access point device. what you can do is connect your LG with cable or bluetooth for modem sharing. To: user Q : i wanted to buy the ks 20, but i dont know whether it is a good phone or not. Anyone who has got good or bad experience ? A : like my earlier answer, try to go to LG retail store. ;) To: Rudo Q : The device with no reasonable reason goes to blank out after in the sleep mode. A : try to press the sleep button. try to hard reset your set. c my previous post. To: Anonymous Q : i wanted to use the mail facility exactly as in desktop pc. A : this is not a pc, so there r limitation. anyway i use gmail so i still can interact like pc coz it has html view. Q : how can i save html pages that is on the screen. A : unfortunetly i still can answer this question too. i already try download the signed version buti can't install it with error "doesn't have enough permission", it seems windows mobile 6.0 have a weakness in java app because it doesn't have option to "write the user data" in java permission n doesn't support java multitasking. regards -ian-

  • I've bought this device 2 weeks ago and I feel good enough, except with my experience of the software. The active sync does not work properly even after I seek the problem solver form the windows mobile site. The problem was solved until re-installed the software to the LG service center and of course I loss my internal data, such as contact, sms, and email message. The second problem was the device with no reasonable reason goes to blank out after in the sleep mode. To solved the problem, I must removed the battery and place it again to the device, I faced this problem twice, before and after re-installed the software. Does anyone face the same problem with me and how to solved this problem? Thx, Rudo

  • i wanted to use the mail facility exactly as in desktop pc. anyway thank u very much ian for ur information. but i didn't get the answer for how can i save html pages that is on the screen. i tried opera mini. but it shows opera recommends signed version of opera. i tried highlight > options>set permissions>but i could not make it woking.... thank you

  • To: UKUSA Q : How do I "cook" the ROM to change the language to English? A : cook the ROM means that you have to change the embedded ROM to a new one. this steps will make your hand set will become a piece of brick(garbage/papper weight) if you fail. so do it at your own risk. i already write a bit what you need in previous post. for much more information, try googling and visit xdadeveloper.com

  • To: Z Q : how to setting the MMS.GPRS and 3G to KS 20 A : i will answer this Q n not for this type only but for other type too. what u need to set MMS,GPRS n 3G: it's provider depended so for different provider than different value set. but globally you need to know: apn(access point name,username,password,ip address,port number) for MMS you need to know the url for homepage your provider and port number. for LG KS20 GPRS n 3G: start-setting-connection-add new modem connection give the name what you want - select modem (choose cellulaer line GPRS,3G,HSDPA)-next-fill the apn according to your service provider-fill the username and password.if your provider must set the ip address than choose "advance" than fill the ip address. finish for MMS: messanging-menu-mms-mms setting-new- fill the title according to your taste - fill mms url - fill port number and point the access point to your gprs setting name.

Thank you "seon" for answering. ^__- sorry if i'm miss lead you or give the wrong answer. hey..i'm not the expert here.. lol TO: Anish Q : i cannot even open a pdf file or an e-mail attatchment. i cannot attatch a file say, a picture, into an email message. then what is the use of that smartphone. A : If you already set the email account on the messanging than it is very simple to attach file, just go to messaging, choose your email account, menu - new, on the new message - choose menu - insert-choose what you wanna attach (picture,voice note or file). For opening the attachment, you should download the file first than you can view it. Anyway, do you know what is the meaning of smartphone?who's doesn't smart???whatever your product that you use,if you doesn't know how to use it,that it just a waste. regards ian

  • Q- how to enable caps lock A- just tap the shift key twice

  • I try the phone. overall is a good phone but extremely bad battery life. This is because i had used to to connect to fring using wifi. When the phone goes into standby i can't use the wifi as wifi connect will drop. On I can only off the backlight. KS20 also had problem with VOIP fring n skype the connection are chopping

  • To: LORCAN21 Q : do you actually need a software for the handwritting recognition for sending sms? what sort of application is that.. please help me... A : no..winmo already istalled handwriting recog for typing msg, they are : keyboard(usual keyboard), letter recognizer, block recognizer and transcriber. i think that's enough for handwriting recognizer(letter recognizer, block recognizer and transcriber). To: theDArkWizard Q : is it ok to charge the battery even if its not yet low bat? Does the battery's life reduce if i drain the battery? A : for KS20, it's okay. if you use ni-cd or ni-mh battery than you have a problem, because that type of battery will create a dummy voltage that will take up space on your battery capacity and reduce the size capacity. li-ion and polymer are much more stand to charging even when it's not low yet.

  • To ian: Is it ok to charge the battery even if its not yet low bat? Does the battery's life reduce if i drain the battery? i never got a lowbat notification for a week because i always sync it to my pc and of course it does charge that's why but it is harmful to the battery?

  • Quoting the following from GSM Arena Review ... "Obviously the lack of a video driver for the embedded video chip in the MSM7200 chipset will be plaguing LG users much like the HTC ones." Is there any solution for this as I am not able to play any of the 3D games on it. Thanks in advance

LG usually doesn't make 3.5 audio jack on their set.. they use their own connector model.so no 2.5 or 3.5 audio jack on their handset, but they attach 3.5 audio jack on their handsfree for KS20 so you can change the ear piece.

  • You have not describe about audio jack weather 2.5 or 3.5

Thanks. 1 have set my mobile to give a sound & vibration notification when I received an e-mail in Outlook. It works properly EXCEPT when I turn my mobile temporarily i.e. in sleep mode, no notification is given when an e-mail is received.

  • Great phone, no problem so far. Just poor on battery and inconvenient when typing anything at all.

  • Cheap phone with great feature.. LOVE MY KS20...

  • Yes, probably this is the best way to decide if the KS20 is good for me..:)

  • To: Chop My tip: Go to LG retail store and have it for a try,than you can choose whether you want 2 buy it or not. ;) or try SE P1i (i already have it back than) it was a decent phone for you to try too, except the awkward key and no HSDPA.

  • I don't know...Wifi, bigger screen, WM6, better organiser (I think so..), touch screen, and the PDA-feeling... Maybe these are the main differences between the 2 phones. If the operation speed nearly same, I will be satisfied. You can install 3rd party softwares, so you can solve the QWERTY keyboard problem. I'll see...:)

  • To: Chop Q: So, your opinion is that 6120C is better than KS20? If not, then I have misunderstood you. A: I didn't said 6120c was better, but i said that you won't gain any significant outcome from what you already have because only a few difference between 6120c and ks20 (beside their OS and touchscreen), that's why i said stick with your phone. I guess their equal. :) Q: If I would like to change my phone to a PDA, which one do you recommend for me? A: I'll say go for HTC diamond or Pro. I planned to change to that in the future. Wish i could buy Pro2.Who would not? :p Donation please..hihihi.. :D

  • So, your opinion is that 6120C is better than KS20? If not, then I have misunderstood you. And if I would like to change my phone to a PDA, which one do you recommend for me?

  • To: chop Q: Somebody has told me if the phone's menu is very slow. Is it true? A: No,is not true.But my opinion, stick with your phone. you won't gain significant outcome from what you already have but again this is just my opinion. :p To: sng Q: is it good performance? It better than htc viva ,or viva is better. A: Yes,KS20 is a good one, but which one is better?depend on what you looking for. viva doesn't have HSDPA and secondary camera but better on OS because it have WMP 6.1 and touchflo. To: Anand Q: How much ram does it have? how is the performance of Wi-fi? A: 128 RAM, 30-38 user available RAM. Wifi: good. To: tayen Q: i was advised that my battery is defective. A: if you already try the solution and still teh problem exist. than i think yes, your battery is defective. consult with your retail store, in my country it cost $USD 22-25. To: TheDarkWizard Q: can i Upgrade this phone into windows mobile 6.1 or the new 6.5 / 7? How? A: Yes you can, but I'm not qualified enough to answer your question, see to learn upgrade your phone

  • Somebody has told me if the phone's menu is very slow. Is it true? I currently have a Nokia 6120C, and I'm pleased with its operating speed, and I don't want to change to a worse one. Thanks for the answer.

  • is it good performance? It better than htc viva ,or viva is better. can anyone that have use it tell me.

  • How much ram does it have? how is the performance of Wi-fi?

  • i was advised that my battery is defective.. please explain to me.. tnx!

  • To LgNewbie Tnx 4 all the info however can i Upgrade this phone into windows mobile 6.1 or the new 6.5 / 7? How?

  • To: tayen Q : the unit suddenly shuts down and is still have to recharge the unit so it will turn on again. why is that? A : see my previous post on 2009-02-15 16:21 below on fixing your issue. i hope that's help. ;)

  • the features of the said unit is great but i have this concern. the unit suddenly shuts down and is still have to recharge the unit so it will turn on again. why is that? i just had the unit 4 months ago. please advise if i should have a change on its power saving settings or there might really be a problem on the unit. ill appreciate the honestly. frankly im a nokia user but i got interested on this lg ks20 because of its features. please advise...

  • Battery life is poor. Last 2-3 days only.

  • To: Sa Hae Q: Another thing is, is the battery life good ? Let's say if I use it to listen to MP3, would the battery last long ? A: basically,battery life is average, because this is a PDA phone so 1 day is the normal life on this phone and so is other PDA.usually i get 2 days on my normal use.usually i used it for IM,browsing, a few minute of mp2 and reply sms. i rarely use it for calling. if you use it for mp3 maybe you get more than 4 hours on full mp3 listening on your speaker phone with display off. To: Steve Q: When we use the phone to dial other people, can we use our fingers? or do we have to use the stylus for that as well? A: you can use your finger for dialing. because it have a large button on your screen that you can touch.but for standard phone book you normally use stylus, you can use other free app so you can use with finger. To: Stephanie Q: Does this phone takes good pictures? & does the phone comes with a memory card or you have to purchase it separate? A: On good light condition, Yes it take good picture. I don't know in your country, but here in Indonesia, they bundled it with free 1 GB of SanDisk memory card. To: Steve Q: Do you know where we can download the 3rd party software? I am debating whether I should buy KS20 or KP500.. Which one do you prefer? A: It depend on you, if you can live with NO HSDPA, NO Wifi, 3MP camera (no auto focus, no flash),Accelerometer sensor for auto-rotate, you want to use finger a lot, MUCH BETTER sound quality, than go for KP 500. for HSDPA, Wifi, 2MP camera (auto focus+flash), NO Accelerometer sensor for auto-rotate and have to customize your phone so you can use your finger, than go for KS20. Here's the catch: you can do many customizing for phone with Operating System such as Windows, Symbian, Google. for KS20 free apps: you can visit www.freewarepocketpc.net, www.smartphone-freeware.com and many more.

  • with 2 years plan..

  • Thanks lgnewbie for your reply. Another thing is, is the battery life good ? Let's say if I use it to listen to MP3, would the battery last long ?

  • MAX is 2G

  • When we use the phone to dial other people, can we use our fingers? or do we have to use the stylus for that as well?

  • Does this phone takes good pictures? & does the phone comes with a memory card or you have to purchase it separate?

  • Do you know where we can download the 3rd party software? I am debating whether I should buy KS20 or KP500.. Which one do you prefer?

  • To: Steve Q: Can we use our fingers to use the touchscreen or do we HAVE to use the stylus everytime? A: basically on standard windows mobile 6.0 (WM or WMP 6.0), you use stylus VERY-VERY often. In order to use finger you have to install other 3rd party softwares. The easiest way, is to install themes + 3rd party keyboard and there's many free apps n free themes on internet that you can install on your phone. The other way is to install many 3rd party software such as wishbar(buy),rosco(buy),flash (free),themes(buy n free),etc.. or The HARDEST way is to upgrade to WMP 6.1 with touchflo. hope that's answer your question.

  • Can we use our fingers to use the touchscreen or do we HAVE to use the stylus everytime?

  • back again guys.. even though this is not a web forum, but I'll try to answer by my knowledge, so it is not guarantee will answer your Q by the right info. well..at least i already try.. ;) and I'm not an LG fans or such.. just a regular user from Indonesia. PEACE.. :D To: Sa Hae Q: Hey, is the phone lag ? A: if u don't install untrusted software, and run many apps, I'm sure it won't lag. so check your available RAM. like i said earlier, this phone only have about 30-39MB available for user's RAM. To: Anonymous and OTHERS Q: Hi how do u install the new ROM??? A: it required a lot of knowledge to install new ROM, and 1 important thing: it will make your phone as a brick if u don't know what your doing. install new ROM only if u ready for the risk such as lost of guarantee, make your phone become a brick if you fail to install new ROM. but basically u need: * LGMDP application * LG usb driver * ROM file To: yaya and OTHERS Q: Does anyone know why my KS20 always hang?? A: you don't tell me why it become hang..please write the problem clearly. But for others, if your phone suddenly have problem follow this step: 1. if your prob after installing new apps, try to uninstall that program.then soft reset (by turning off and on your phone again) or use 3rd party software to reset it. 2. if your prob after transferring file by any connection, maybe your phone is get infected by a virus so make sure u have a clean transfer file. try use anti virus for mobile. 3. if all doesn't work, than try to hard reset your phone. note that u will lost all data in your phone memory.so backup your data 1st, u can use active sync or other 3rd party software. HOW i hard reset my LG?here's the trick. 1. Turn off your phone 2. hold this 3 button at the same time (down volume, call button and on/off button at the same time). hold that button for a few seconds until u see your led light up in different colors. i hope there won't be any question about reseting anymore. :D To: kok se Q: anybody know what max size of micro SD card it can support? A: I'm not sure about the max capacity it can handle, some says 8GB is still supported. I'm only using 2GB and still have plenty room left. To: Anonymous Q: can anyone tell if this phone has a DUAL SIM option? A: No.. dual sim required more hardware in it's phone.

  • can anyone tell if this phone has a DUAL SIM option?

  • Mate,WM is Windows Mobile.. dis phone has gud battery life..almost 3 days for moderate user like me.. emm..anybody know what max size of micro SD card it can support?

  • I can't send SMS's beaucouse LG ks20 can't, i quote: 'can't recognise number or account' or something like this... help me (sorry about miss speling the words, i'm not good at english)

  • WM stand imo for Windows Mobile

  • What is WM? I'm confusing when i read all the opinions... Many of then r talking bout WM. What is WM anyway?

  • I just bought the phone. After I saw all the comments, I came to some conclusion. My phone dont hang, the battery works fine & yes its kinda slow,you want to know why? Coz I compare it with my 4 GB RAM, AMD64 X2 5000 PC. Its just a phone guys, not a super computer. Get with it, you want to have super computer try USD 1500 stuff not USD 300 stuff. It Hangs alot coz you put alot of programs inside it, ad of course the more you run program the more the processor works the faster its going to dry you battery out. Regularly stop the program running from your memory settings, it'll keep your device performance.

  • I bought LG KS20 in the month of Sep-08 I have same opionion. Low priced WM Phone. Only disadvats is its memory. Overall I liked this device, buying recommended for WM lovers

  • go to www.xda-developers.com and search for ks20 rom then there will be instructions that will get you start off with. cooking your own rom requires more learning. all the materials are in the website. good luck

  • LG stands way behind in its built quality, the same is revealed here too. I had this phone for almost 4 months. If you say that its worthy for your money you invest, please wait, have a quick review, this phone has only 128mb ram, when running some 3rd party programs like opera, call firewall, the phone really starts working like win xp in and old pc with 256mb ram. Try keep away from LG high end phones but it has some very good medium sector entry phones like 195, 220, 199 etc with a very matured phone os, but the overall physical built quality of these too are way below average

  • Hey anyone know how to upgrade to WM 6.1 ???

  • Hi. Anyone knows if the 3.5mm jack audio adapters available for other LG phones (e.g. LG Chocolate) can be used with the KS20? The connectors seem pretty much the same but I'm not sure 100% that it would work. I would like to buy a shorter adapter as the one that comes with the phone + the earphones' cable seems too much cable to carry...

  • I suggest try to do a hard reset on your device. Shut off your phone first, then hold down the green call key, volume down on the left side of the phone and then power on the device while holding the earlier 2 buttons until you see something on the screen.

  • Upgrade to wm 6.1

  • Does anyone know why my KS20 always hang?? Another problem is when there is incoming sms it will hang and after restart the phone, the sms gone.

  • lg kks20 is good.no lag..but it hard to write msg when driving.

  • Hi how do u install the new ROM???

  • $128 with or without 2yr plan?

  • Hey, is the phone lag ? Overall is it recommendable for the price of just SGD128 ?

  • bloody fantastic machine. very light and solid with perfect finish and great design. even audio quality is great when used with a decent set of earphones. however the stock rom is a complete trash, becomes unusable after 2 minutes of usage. I have built my own custom rom and it works like a charm. excellent phone for an mid-expert users who knows how to flash the phone with a new rom.

  • to "a LK KS20 user" The build-in touch keyboard is also very small and this make messaging very difficult. A: use other 3rd party software to magnified the keyboard,like "tap tap","SPB","ExInput".my lg key is large enough to use finger. to "Ks20 owner" does anybody know a good flash player software for this phone / WM 6.0 pro? A: use flash player 6 lite. to "rere" Q:how can a phone with that kind of feature can be support with that kind of battery? A: it's a PDA phone, it's normal on PDA phone.so set u'r power saving at decent performance.set u'r backlight on 1 minute, connection only when u need it. Q:Can u help me out with the bluetooth for handfree? i hardly paired my lg wif my mini clip 2. How come? even the guy sell me the handfree hardly setup . A: setting -> bluetooth ->bluetooth manager -> actine connection -> menu -> paired device (pair u'r bluettoh HF with u'r phone) to * Anonymous Stay away from this phone: 1. outgoing call always need to dial twice A: not true! 2. phone is on but when people call the phone doesn't ring A: not true! 3. showing text msg not sent but in fact has been sent need to reset the phone then will show sent Q:not true! 4. touch screen not sensitive : not true! 5. 400Mhz processor but runs slower then a 200Mhz processor HTC : have u compare it? 6. sound cracks at high volume A: true! Q: How can I exit from an application??? A: depend on the program it stored in u'r RAM, so many programs requred u to shutdoen manually. Q: Dhananjay can u plz let me inform about its sound quality, wifi n GPRS accessibility? A: sound 6.5 to 10, wifi haven't try it yet, GPRS good, it will change to GPRS,EDGE and UMTS automatically.

  • just bought it.. let see.. this phone has a great featured in it. but 1st impression is: slim i like the black solid body responsive touch screen after try and error the menu it was great but the stylus is damn hard to pull the speaker is not something that u can proud of..it really have no power at all.even my old S45 can be louder than that.when u max the volume,than u get a breakable sound.hope they upgrade on their speaker hardware. camera is good,but the bluetooth connection is hard to use..still can't figure it out how to connect my lg with my comp bluetooth.it keeps fail identify "searching services". and sadly,it seems that it can not customize the sms using mp3 ring tone,only default ring in it. but overall,it's a decent phone with the great future on it's price. btw i was succeded to install wisbar advance and wisbar advance desktop, wish i can intall full iphone themes in it in a weeks.

  • how is the KS20 sound quality compared to Shine series? can we use the finger to TOUCH or must use the stylus?

  • sometimes it is clear. the function of the camera is sometimes slow when you capture a shot.

  • Hi all i just can say this is LG KS20 not so bad for syle lol, but really the speaker its poor lol, and i want to ask if we register the GPRS and MMS have ready the setting

  • I'been using this cutie for the last 6 months.Last week i ve exchanged it with Asus 320. OMG,, the worst phone i ever had!!1!!!!!!!!!!.Now again i bgt KS20. LGKS20 provides a descent performance compared to any other windows phone.Dude am assuring u that you wont get any other WM for this price with outstanding performance with manageable disadvantages.

  • I can now give my comments on the phone after using it for about a month. The phone is slim, stylish, and its 2 MP AF camera takes good pictures in good light. However, the phone is slow at times and have an extremely poor quality speaker. Its battery life is also quite poor. It is also very difficult to manage contacts as it doesn't seem to offer option to copy contacts from the sim card to the phone.

  • will it work? I've heard that Flash Player 7 doesn't work on WM 6.0...

  • its alg ku990

  • just donwload a flash plyer from adobe's site. I got the same

  • I can't seem to open any pdf files on this phone but it says on the specs above that it has a pdf viewer...?! can someone help me pls? and does anybody know a good flash player software for this phone / WM 6.0 pro? cheers

  • I own KS20 aqnd it has 2MP camera

  • Does anybody knows what's the model number for the phone on the left of the iphone in this pictures list. Thanks!

  • LG's website is displaying the wrong info. They messed up the LG KS20 with the LG Viewty which has a 5 MP camera.

  • Bilkul bekar phone koi mat khareedna

  • eh.. i got see in the LG website... the phone camera is 5MP why all said it is 2MP only ??? or the new annouced is the new one .. with only the camera being enhanced ?

  • After having and using the phones for like 2 weeks, I can now give my opinions on the phone. Let's begin with the pros of the phone. The phone is stylish and sexy, has a large 2.8" touch screen, its 2 MP AF camera produces great pictures and have everything you need like wifi & 3G/HSDPA connectivity. However, I'm very dissapointed with the phone's sound quality, ringtones and music are heavily distorted. Also, the material of the phone is easily scratched. The build-in touch keyboard is also very small and this make messaging very difficult.

  • This phone is worth with the price but unfortunately the battery is weak. If the 3G is ON then the battery will just last 18hours... it's just to bad. how can a phone with that kind of feature can be support with that kind of battery?

  • this fone is worth the price it has all features like flash with 2 cameras , wifi enabled , gps facility very good battery life , and 3g facility and voila i have inserted 16 gb card and it works , instead of 4 gb claimed by lg -- man 16 gb storage woof

  • i bought ks20 in singapore in english version. but i cant read chinese sms. any way i can download for it to be able to view chinese?

When I unclick the notification sound boxes then I get no sound for other things. If someone understands my question and knows the answer I'd really appreciate some feedback. Thank you

  • I used this phone for about 6 months, love the features but only the main problem is the power consumption...battery arggh!!giving me headache!!..have to bring out the USB cable to recharge in my office..anything else acceptable.

  • it's the cheapest 3G winmo-based phones in my country.

  • How can I exit from an application??? I dont find exit option in any application and it doesn't exit by pressing [X] button, as it keep running in background...every time I have to go to start->settings->system->memory->running programs then only I be able to close applications. Secondly how can I toggle between running programs? Thanks!!!

  • Any one knows how to change the language to english, without flashing any rom or something??? And... is there any app to install, for language improvements??? I just bought the phone! thanx!!!

  • sound quaily is so far 8 out of 10 . i think casing makes less pressure out of it but compare to iphone and ku990 and others. it is very competitive sound. i think it is depend on what kind of files you put it in but so far i like it a lot.

  • i think this phone is great functionally. I just have a little disappointed with its one and only speaker that used by ringtone and speak... but if I use standard headset, it's good sound in my ears.. if I used Sony's headset: that's great...!!!!

  • the sound quality is extremely poor.i found that this phone had lots of probs.better think twice before u buy.

  • Dhananjay can u plz let me inform about its sound quality, wifi n GPRS accessibility?

  • over all this is not a good phone

  • no comment so good so hi

  • Well, the sound quality is ok. But I don't know if its possible to put music in it.

  • Hi Guyz!!! Guyz! who are using this phone....please tell me about the sound quility! Can it be used as a music phone? as in review the audio quility is below average! Please tell me about the audio quility from speaker and headset! Thanks in advanced!!!

  • You need a new sim card. I have the same problem when I first use this phone.

  • Hello jackie. I think that it would be helpful to ask the people in the shop, how they set it so that it is able to link to GPRS. I hope its not too difficult, so that you may use the steps.

  • Hello jackie. Yes indeed I have the problem of not being able to use GPRS as well. I can only use wi-fi. But i'm not complaining. Because the use of GPRS takes up extra money. But sometimes it is a bit sad they have added something in the phone that can only be accessed after taking it back to the shop. If you have problems with GPRS, I am not able to help, my apologies. But the thing about not being able to remove the battery is strange. Why is it that after you remove the battery the GPRS do not work? Best of luck to you.

  • my LGKS20 got the problem using 3G log in window live messenger! does anyone facing this problem? i send my phone to KLCC maxis center & the guys help me setting something...after that msn can log in. but he told me not to reset or remove battery cos the setting will run. but thats impossible....PDA phone sure sometime will hang right? so after 3 days i reset phone the setting run....now again back to cant use 3g log in msn. can anyone help me solve this problem?

  • Yes. My favourite functions, other than the phone and SMS is microsoft office and wi-fi.

  • after reading the opnion here, i found out mostly don't really make sense. Some compare it with symbian phone and htc touch. I dont think its wise to make such comparison. this is window base and it has wifi and 3G. I have use it for 1 month plus, never Hang!! everything is good especially camera n surfing is gr8. Only draw back is that after a long chat on the phone(bout 30 minutes) u can felt the phone abit hot on the back. Thanks

  • I don't think it's the problem with the sim card but rather with your phone. Mine had the same problem with yours, meaning my phone kept on restarting so i sent it for repairs & they said it was a problem with the hardware. ((:

  • 1)Yes, you can navigate the phone using your fingers. 2)Nope, it doesn't have sensors that allow it to change to landscape mode automatically when placed horizontally. Hope this helps! ((:

  • Hi. im from Indonesia. how about push email feature ? any problem ? does this KS20 can open any attachment file (from email) ?

  • I have two questions: 1. Does touch screen on this phone can be operated only by the pen you get with the phone or you can do it with you finger? 2. When you move this phone in landscape mode does the screen fallow the movement of the phone and rotate windows in the landscape or not? Thank you.

  • hey i just bought the LG KS20 and i didnt calibrate the screen and it locked in accident . how would i rest it because half of the screen doesnt work

  • Hi, the functions are ok and the only issue I have is the battery problem, but the internet is a bit slow, the other user recommends using SkyFire, not sure where you can get the software or not..

  • I got this phone a week ago and have been fiddling with it ever since. All I can say is that this phone is really good. Of course, there is always room for improvement, but for the relative price among other smart phones, it beats out the others. I would recommend getting an alternative browser to IE Mobile such as SkyFire. Using my home WiFi (23000 down/6000 up), the browsing speeds are extremely quick and as an added bonus, SkyFire is compatible with most if not all Flash applications (such as video streaming) on your phone. The battery life is also rediculous considering the size and weight. This is most likely due to the fact that the phone actually goes into a "turn off standby" when not in use, shutting down the LCD and Godknowswhat. Indeed, the phone IS a fingerprint magnet, but hey, aren't all good looking phones like that these days. The 2.0 mp camera is outstanding for its class. Compared with many other 2 mp's the ks20 really outshines the rest in terms of latency and quality. Some minor cons that I would like to address are the fact that the touchscreen is indeed a TFT touchscreen, meaning its plastic and utilizes a dot-matrix style pressure sensor on the surface on the screen. In English: the display is plastic, not glass as I would recommend (meaning its more likely to get scratched). I find this feature to be important on a touchscreen as its constantly being touched (no way!). There are some proprietary issues that have been complained about, but I find the adapters provided are more than enough. Finally, yes, the sound quality is slightly sharp, but otherwise, this phone is definitely worth every penny. And considering your definitely not going to pay more than the $320 that I did, it's a great deal indeed. Cheers.

  • To all LG KS20 future buyers.... I have now tested and tried out various PDA phones. I really liked LG KS20, because it is SO stylish (can't beat it), and the specs are very good! (DivX player, wifi, etc). But sadly, I'm going to have to recommend HTC Touch Cruise over KS20 (ofcourse there are other phones but compared in the similar catagories). Hardware specs are almost identical, but for some reason, Touch Cruise operates so much quicker and smoother. LG KS20 is a BUG magnet. It malfunctions very often. Although you can get used to it, once trying bug free PDA phones, I realised I was trapped in a nut shell.... Big Thumbs up for HTC Cruise. (Iphone would be my next recommendation if ur into web browsing and don't mind being controled by APPLEs limitations + $$$, I personally don't like being limited by manufacturers)

  • Yes it works at the Caribbean, I am at DR and is working fine on Orange / Claro networks

  • Hi All, I have my Nokia 3250 with me for more than 2 years now. I am very fond of music which 3250 helps me listedn to with highest quality! Now am looking to buy a new pda phone with atleast decent music quality. I checked out the HTC-Touch but it was pathetic in terms of music quality and volume. I know Omnia has better than any other pdas as of now but I dont want to spend too mcuh... So can an of you ppllzzzz help me out with a review of the Music in this phone plzzzzzzzzzzz Thanxx in Advance ;)

  • uhm, its a nice phone.. the problem is just that sometimes, it hangs up.. i have a problem in rebooting it.. also i encounter some problems in sending message

  • its very easy ^^ Press the Start menu and choose 'Settings' than you choose the 'Connection' tab and there you have 'USB to PC' , 'connections', 'bluetooth' and what were been searching 'Wi-Fi'. You may use the 'wireless menager' to to turn it on fast, like blutooth and phone as well :3. the found conections of some routers will be on your tray bar on "i" antena shaped icon :3. Have fun with the pocket PC like i do X3 it rocks my socks!

  • My batery lasts 4 days without any conection to PC or other

  • I won the phone and yes it plays youtube :3 but it works difrent than on IE on PC. It downloads movie and converts it to MP4 or MPG format... than plays it in its mediaplayer.

  • This Phone watch you tube??

  • so how often must you charge it

  • This is my first time using pocket pc. Anyone know the setting of wifi? What's the setting should I going to do or change when I wanna go for internet with my ks20 in wifi area? meanwhile, I wanna say thanks at lot to Anonymous who to solve my problem before.

  • hellohello. im from singapore and i want to get a pda phone. so its like im considering this phone. does this phone have any flaws that may affect the "health" of this phone? pls help me, i really need true opinions of users [of ks20] thankyou :D unde-fined

  • For a Hard Reset - Clears out and completely resets LG KS20 - Press & hold send (Call) + volume down buttons and at the same time press the power button (right side of phone) and hold for about 10 seconds. This returns the phone to factory settings.

  • this phone can watch you tube??

  • its not bad but don't spend over 350 for the phone..i got mine on ebay for 320 and an extra 23 for 8gb memory.

  • i purchased this phone about 2 weeks ago for about 320 dollars, with an additional $23 for an 8gb memory. the phone is freaking awsome, but nothing comparing to the iphone. i still can't figure out how to get the GPRS to work, but if there is a wireless router around and you are able to get on the internet, Google Maps works just fine. the camera feature are amazing, bot front and back with zoom in - out and editing. you can also find many free applications for the phone for free. to be honest, i wouldn't spend over 350 for this phone, im looking forward until the Sony Xperia, and the Prada 2 come out. the HTC touch pro aren't bad but a bit pricy.

  • you can try to find it (engchn). i just get the same free software for my dopod 838.

  • i don't recommend to you buy this phone because currently you use navigator and dis phone dont have gps so it is worthless to you.

  • I just bought KS20 last few days, i'm looking for the "simple chinese keyboard" which allow me to keyin the chinese word. I would like to know which "free" website is available? Anyone know? pls tell me! Thanks

  • Hi, I'm currently using 6110 navigator.. I want to change my phone, is this phone is a good one to buy? pls reply... thx..

  • I've been thinking 4 almost a month to buy this pda phone..atlast!!..I bought with confident after reading your opinions here..Its actually a matter of awareness in your pda phone..2 avoid hanging the phone, you have to delete all the running program from your setting...then it works fine..

  • help.. i can't remember my password.. now i can't unlock my phone.. so that means i can't use it.. does anyone know what to do? how i can clear the memory or like a reset the system to clear everything?

  • buy a stinkin blueooth gps receiver on ebay for 30 bucks and put it on you keychain an ta da you have gps

  • Its true that LG cant provide a battery life compareble to SE but still I dont think this phone has got a bad battery life. It has got a 256k screen and not 65k as mentioned here, so its logical that it will drain more battery than a HTC touch or similar phones which are using a 65k screen. It also have a 400 mhzs processor and many other features. Considering all this and its slimness, I dont think it would be fair to expect much from the battery.

  • i am having difficulties keeping my service also it's not my service provider it is the phone does any1 no any helpful tips to keep my signal or my service please email me @ the above adress over all i love my phone WHENEVER IT WORKS

  • man i have the samqe problem my phone keeps saying no service one minute then service the next someone help me too

  • This set hangs like no other mobile i ever use. any comment to help me out. appreciate all thoughts. I like the features but it was too slow and screen kept jam

  • SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME!!! i hope everyone can take a break from the whole 'gps commentary war' and help me =) i have this phone. i have ONE problem. my signal keeps disappearing and i have to constantly go to 'wireless manager', turn off 'phone', turn it back on and it resets my signal... is there any way i can KEEP my bars up so i don't have to always reset it?

  • convert your ringtone into wave files and copy it into the root windows dir.

  • no it does not have a GPDS system

  • so this phone is not really what I'm looking for...???.... kinda disappointed but its alright....i really want 2have PDA phone that will never give me headache nor get me upset while I'm using it...any suggestion?...what phone I'm suppose to get which has the same features just like KS20...Thanks...

  • Bought this phone back in May and my opinion is that i'm never getting a windows mobile again! First week of having the phone my battery always says 100% when i don't know how much i have actually drained. Just the other day my wifi settings have dissappeared so i now i have absolutely no wifi! Only thing this phone is good for is paper wait in the office!!

  • I've been reading most of the opinions posted on this review, to tell you honestly I'm planning to buy this phone LG KS20 this coming week but upon reading opinions here, I got disappointed, frustrated...I really want to know if this phone is truly superb..anyone can help me? thanks in advance...

Am really mad about the service and the battery. anyone intending to get this phone, pls take my advice, DON'T!!!! Should have bought Samsung Omnia instead.

  • Eugene, thanks for your reply... i've tried to end all running programs from the ram, but it still doesnt cool down after couple of minutes. I ended up switching off and on the phone to resolve the problem. Also when the phone heats up the battery drain off pretty fast too.

  • Christina, This is becoz the CPU chip is working, it turns hot when opening website or anything relayed to accessing internet. Try to close app. at the ram setting section.

  • i ve noticed the heat too, it's probably due to the wifi/gsm/bluetooth all being integrated into one chip... it's not a problem though, i have it for almost a year now and nothing came up (except for the battery, which was replaced by the service)

  • i just bought this phone slightly more than a week ago... anyone has any idea why my phone turns hot at times? eventhough i tried to end all running programs, it still doesnt help... i counter the problem by switching the phone off and on Christina

  • Currently not available in Australia. If you buy from HK you will not get support from LG Aust or the Optus Network - The phone works on Talk & SMS but not MMS and Data downloads as it has International Factory settings. Don't expect the seller in HK to respond for warranty etc. Worth the wait for a possible December 2008 release in Aus.

  • Hi all, I've been using this phone since last two months. This is excellent phone so far I found. The phone never hanged, neither become slower during this period. About battery, believe me I�ve only once powered through adaptor since last two months otherwise 1 hrs USB connect, once in three days is sufficient. One big drawback I see is you can not use Docking station as the connector is proprietary and side fitted. There are couple of USB cradles available but they need manual insertion of cable . The camera is good but not as excellent as SE K750i. The phone speed and response are amazing. I really appreciate KG�s efforts towards making LG KS20. Overall this is very stylish phone in available smart phones. dhananjay bangalore

  • DANIEL, All PDA phones are not user-friendly unless you customs your own inter face with many 3rd party softwares. That is the beauty of PDA phone.

  • Truly, battery is terribly poor. How could LG create a competitive Windows phone with a very very poor battery? And no reset hole, too! Anybody knows how to hard reset this expensive paperweight? Thank you.

  • Not a very Good Phone =\ , Avoid buying this phone.

  • HI guys, i have a question for those guys using windows mobile. Can anybody tell me between HTC touch, LG KS20 nad ASUS p320 which one is better. LG KS20 has 400 mhz processor and 3G. I do care about 3G anyway. How much impact procesor does have.

  • To mikehwy: Look for a programme called SIM MANAGER, it helps you to copy your contact to phone from SIM or another way round.

  • To Anonymous: There is WiFi built-in, I use it everyday to update my weather report. The "Toolbar" programme is made by LG itself which is used since Parda phone. Not a bad phone but not the best either.

  • This phone is rubbish, DO NOT buy it. Get a touch pro or a diamond instead. I cant believe this kind of junk exist on this world. OMG, please remove this junk. No Wifi, not even windows mobile using some crap software made by Samsung? Rubbish total J

  • I was a user of P990;P1i & G900 of sony ericsson but now i'm using Ks20.. crash in KS20?? i dont think so, its a windows mobile 6.0 Pro..this unit made my dream come true.. Regarding battery/power consumption, all pda phones encountered same problem but the viewty of KS20 as indicated in the user's manual, you dont have to drain to recharge... Enjoy

  • You need to set up first your internet explorer.. with regards to the battery?? to minimize consumption you'll have to adjust the brightness including internal background light,any cellphones will always encounter on the power storage but this will depend on the attitude of using your cellphone..However,KS20 as indicated in the user's manual, you don't have to drain to recharge it..check out the battery power indicator if its below 50% then you can charge it right away...your KS20 Angel

  • Check that you have not left Bluetooth switched on. That will drain your power faster.

  • Contacts can be stored on your sim but also in your phone. Look for your missing contacts in your previous phone. Sync them to your computer then sync to your new phone.

  • know your ks20 & it will blow you brain out... I been a user of sony ericsson for quit sometimes from k models down to p990 P1i & lasly the G900.. now i'm using ks20 just solved on what im looking on a cellphone of its a windows OS 6.0..regarding battery well as stated in the manual you could always recharge the batt without draining it..right now im using my ks20 in my internet explorer thru wifi..i'm impress by this ks20.. thanks to LG.. omnia i9000 samsung little bit bettter but not when it comes to price...ks20 much more affordable.. power user try me KS20...

  • how much is this phone?the scroll bar thing at the bottom looks kewhhl!it looks realyyy nice if onlyy i new the price. :]

  • Hi all, Last week I purchased this phone in Bangalore, India. This is very good phone and i don't see any problem in its operations, executions. It's fantastic style and ease of operation gives lot of comfort. battery life is also good. (my batter drains almost 75% in two days with wi-fi and EDGE on and moderate conversation. Pros - very stylish. Faster touch responses, ease of operation. good battery life. cons - glossy surface attracts finger prints - expandable only up to only 2GB - Software kit from LG is no so good. Thanks Dhananjay

  • Hi, I want to buy LG KS20 but I need to use voice memo quite often. Does anyone of you know where to find this function? Cos I can't find it when I was playing in the shop. Many thx!

  • It's a nice phone,but it aint made for VoIP ! Try Skype Mobile on it and it will work,but you won't be able to make good skype calls .

  • I changed the battery and it doesn't show the 100% charge anymore. So this problem comes from a faulty battery.

  • Bad service given by Singapore LG service ceter. I bought LG KS 20 by end of MAY, repair two times, problem encounter, cannot read sms, hang, blue tooth cannot detect and baterry indicator cannot fuction, advise to all better try other model rather than LG KS 20.

  • My battery stucks on 100% battery level. It is not reduced even run out of energy. I understood that this is a mistake of battery! because my friend also has it and when I try his battery it shows the real value.

  • I bought this KS20 a week ago, it been great for the whole week. Till the battery is dead, i recharged and now i can't get it turn on to the main screen. It's keep restarting when i turn it on or charging, need some help, please Thanks

  • I have heared that becasue Faulty Battery. It should be replaced with a new one. I have same problem and next week I am going to try a new battery to see if the probelm is solved or not.

  • my manual tat came w/ the box n stuff has english in it. i bought it from asia and the manual is in traditional chinese, simplified chinese and english.

  • it is the worst phone that lg has on smart phones!very poor battery,bluetooth opens when the radio opens!!i don't know who would buy such a phone!

  • First times see this Phone looks so Awesome. but when i try to use, i found alot of malfunction. i even buy this phone for $500. never realize this was a big mistake. The Battery was bad, i need to recharge 2 times a day. what a mess!!

  • Battery life is very poor . At the begining it was ending 4-5 days. But after 1 month less than 2 days, araound 1,5 days (bluetooth, wireless off) Miserable. I do not know what to do ? Maybe a spare battery. Low battery life is a must for all PDA s?

  • this phone have GPS ???

  • does anyone know how to set alarm with songs ,not the sound given? Can u please tell me?

  • When I turn on radio automaticlly bluetooth turns on. Is this normal(in which I doubt) or not? In the same time if I try to turn off bluetooth, radio turns off too.

  • It's just too slow, it drives me mad. My phone has been with me for barely a month, and im deciding to sell it.

  • I have the same battery meter problem, but my always show 99%

  • I've had the KS20 for about couple months now, and the battery life is alright. I have to charge it every night because two weeks after I got it, I noticed that the battery meter constantly read 100% even after using WiFi and texting constantly. Does anyone know how to fix this? I am using this phone unlocked in the Los Angeles area using t-mobile. I can get mms and sms messages.

  • anyone having problem with language setting try change it from the "REGIONAL" setting of your phone-good luck

  • the p527 is not a 3g phone mind you. do you really want to buy a 2g phone? people are already moving on to 3.5g which is also supported by the ks20. i think its best to avoid non-3g phones from now on even if there is no 3g at your place. (from 2010 even under-developed countries will be 3g.. hopefully!)

  • For all those looking for an English version of the KS20, Here is the official reply to my query from LG head office in Canada "Hello I'm sorry have purchased a phone through an unauthorized dealer with software that is not designed to work in North America. LG Canada does not sell nor support this phone, please return to your point of purchase for assistance as we and your service provider are not able to assist you. Regards David Herbert LG Canada " My request was for a link to the English or French version of the LG users manual. Clearly there isn't any in other than Korean or Chinese. Indeed the reply to my message was in barely comprehensible English (and presumably his French is no better). However, the phone is being sold in reputable stores, in Canada, the US, Europe etc. It is astonishing that LG denies any reponsibility for support in the English or French-speaking world when indeed the phone runs on an English Windows MObile 6 Operating system. So far my phone seems to be OK, but I am learning by trail and error. It is extraordinary that LG is selling in the West, but only providing Chinese or Korean operating instructions.

  • None of the 3 following games work on my KS20: Azgard Defence and SPB Brain Evolution don't refresh the screen (unless you turn the device off and on) Virtual Pool - crashes when you're about to rack up (menu works fine). Does any of the above work for you?

  • My device(LG KS 20) shows a bad active syncrony connection with my PC. Anything I can do?

  • KS20 is mistake of LG. LG still learning how to make good PDA with good features.KS20 has no feature compare to HTC, Eten, Apple, O2... Do Not waste your money on this phone.

  • never mind i found the answer to my question. So basically most lg ks20 requires to be flashed and i only had my phone for exactly a week and I think it's already a huge mistake to get it. Overall the design is good but performance isn't that great

  • I got my ks20 for about a week and for some reason I can't connect to any kind of service. I was wondering if any of you know why

  • I want to change my Palm treo 750 for this phone.what thinks about

  • I bought this phone in France, is it possible to change the language on English?

  • does anybody know how to email/send out the pictures from ks20 to another receiver?

  • I bought the phone from an authorized dealer in Canada. I went back to the office thinking I would simply log on to get the owner's manual, since there was none in the box. What frustration. There is no owner's manual!! and it takes several hours on the screen, going through washing machine, TVs etc to discover that there is none. After paying 800$ it is enough to create a nervous breakdown.

  • I bought the phone two months ago for $550 in New York, what huge mistake it was!!! To list some of the most irritating problems: 1) Exceptionally bad battery life, need recharging twice or three times daily for minimal usage, even with the wifi and bluetooth off. 2) System Hangs up regularly. 3) Skype does not function properly, unable to talk. 4) Wifi signal strength very poor 5) GPRS disconnects too often 6) Screen scratches easily and requires constant cleaning 7) screen a bit too small to use with finger 8) Oh yes and as far as it being a babe magnet; sorry its a no go! If anyone is listening do not buy this expensive phone. I would give performance a 2!

  • yes, i have the same problem. I have to go to stop the running programs from settings\memory.

  • I got the phone for a week, and oh boy what a big mistake i made. The biggest problem with the phone is it hang all the time, every time it does, i have to hard reset the phone. which take forever. sometime people call me and it hang before it ring. other then that, Most of the apps and games work nicely if it doesn't hang, and some games will have flicking screen which make it unable to play. (ex. worms world party). The best thing about the phone is it style. anyone that see it will want to play with it. All i can do with this phone is bring it to the club and try to get girls with it. lol

  • My KS-20 cannot run 2 Java programs at one time. Do anyone know how to run 2 Java program at one time on KS-20.

  • u can try to get the apn(access point) from your respective operator (optus). then click on start-setting-connection-add a new modem connection-put in a name for the connnection e.g optus-cellular line (gprs,3g,hsdpa)-finish.

  • Hi does anyone know the gprs and mms settings for Optus (australia) I just got the phone. Thanks

  • samsung i900 or lg ks20, which one runs wm6 better, and is better quality with little problems?

  • It is a super excellent PDA phone - it looks good and keeps all my biz documents well.

  • just got the phone. Overall, I do not like the sensitive-ness of the touchscreen. Definately not as good as the iPhone yet. Yes, it can hang if playing video. Bad part is, do not have quit function for program. Have to go and stop the program from the manager.

  • I have had this phone for two weeks and my opinion? Never Again!!! I think there R more more more better phones, using of KS20 is a big apocalypse, LG did a big mistake with presenting this model like "superstylephone"

  • i bought this phone last week and i must say it is better than i expected. i had 3 years ago a wm phone, a qtek 2020i, the worst phone ever, bought if for 800 euros and sell it for 500 after 1 month. since then i had n70 and n95, very good phones, especially the n95. i put on my company microsoft exchange and i need a wm phone to syncronise also task (not possible with symbian phones even with road sync) pros: - very light, compact design - good speaking qty - decent baterry life (considering its big scren, hspda and so on) - bluetooth is a suprise. both n95 and n70 were working with bmw bluetooth carkit, but without accesing the agenda. on the ks20 is working and i can make phone calls from the car without looking in the agenda cons: - ie not working too good, blocking, had to change it to opera - bluetootk is somethimes disconectig when working with my carkit, incoming calls not hearing always. i guess is a imcompatibility. my car has from factory motorola bluetooth - display hard to use, the iphone has a much better display. concluding, i am satisfied with this phone. for my need is the best since i do not EVER want to hear about qtek, hts or simlar shitty phones. if you want to use it also for emailing is great. if you want to take pictures, listening to the music or else, take a n95. however, i am waiting for the experia. :)

  • About OS language problem; i have bought this phone from germany and stucked with German OS. i called LG Customer Services for a solution but they said no way to change it to English or any other language.You can use just default language. Just waiting for the hopness that someone will solve this problem and let us know :( If someone change OS language please let us know because my phone looks like a dead investment. Thanks for replies in advance.

  • Thanx KS :) BTW does anyone know where you can download the iphone's qwerty keyboard (or one like it) to load onto the LG KS20?

  • this is a windows mobile, so if you get a chinese OS you're "stuck" with it (as in it's not as easy as changing the setting). not sure how you can get the english one, maybe google can help? i got mine a month ago. and so far, i'm lovin it. no complaints at all... a couple of sites for software dls: www.freewareppc.com www.pocketpcfreeware.com www.freewarepocketpc.net you can search for more, just make sure the keywords are something along the lines of "pocket pc" or "windows mobile" applications/games/software. and include the word FREE of course if you're cheap like me.

  • Hi, I've just bought the LGKS20 back from Hong Kong into Australia, does anyone know whether I can change the language from chinese to english...... really irritating, on most phones this is just usually a phone setting.

  • Does anyone know where you can go to get applications for the KS20? I am at a lost, maybe I'm not typing in the right search words, but I'm coming up short. Thanks in advance, Lo.

  • the screen went landscape!! i wan it to be portrait!! how? pls help!

  • Hello.. Does ks20 have front camera for self shot?

  • Just bought it a few days ago. But havings some problem. I'm not too tech savvy so could someone help: 1. When receive call, caller ID x work. Just show unknown. 2. When I can synchronising using active sync, cannot receive or make calls. Please some one help.

  • The reason why it get to hang is because you are running too much applications at one time. You have close all your applications but it was still running in your memory. Very easy, what you need to do is go to menu and to setting. Go in memory and stop all your running programs. By this, it will not make your phone hang all the times.

  • having bluetooth enabled will drain your battery!

  • 1. Cannot set new location (root directery only)for camera to keep photos. 2. File transfer service using bluetooth can not transfer files from storage card. 3. This beautifull Phone has too many bugs(Mostly phone`s function and especially many software not fully tested in term of unforeseen circumstances).

  • This H/P comes with a lot of problems. 1. "Hang" very frquent. 2. Wierd LED indicator. LED should blink when phone in stand by mode. 3. Hard system reset not working. 4. Not works well with Bleu tooth head set. 5. Screen tap "notification" not consistant. 6. Volume UP & Down button not work well with Window Media Player & more .....

  • Slow interface. When listening to an mp3 and I get an incoming call, it locks up for a while after I finish the call. If watching a film and I take an incoming call, it locks up completely and I have to remove the battery to reset it. Random crashes and lockups happen too. Metatrader 4 software and Skype chat don't connect by 3G, only by wireless. Voice Skype is impossible due to audio cutting out. Buy something else. Anything but this pile of poo KS20.

  • hi M@Ti KS20 photo taken not as sharp as K750 as i owned it for 3 years and i like it a lot when i bring it for tour, anyway KS20 is a PDA mobile which is good

  • Tatt not slow? what have u compared it to? when you use the messaging, do you use thumb? and have u d/l a 3rd party app! The poor thing is Office functionality but it has no concern with the device(so does that go for all ppc that have office?) have u d/l a full movie? any lagging do you think that by having a diff shape to the htc touch it makes it look larger? lota questions but appreciate a detailed response! thanks

  • To everybody who's looking for actual users' reviews. I've been using the phone for three weeks by now. I've not noticed it to be slow at all. It's not the mightiest among WM devices but it bears out its specifications. I've got no trouble with phone/message/mail service and Office applications. The poor thing is Office functionality but it has no concern with the device. The media player is functioning well without lags or something, though I must admit that I almost don't watch video and can't judge its speed. Speaking about the interface usability, I'd say, for me, it's quite friendly and easy to operate. VITO and PocketCM keyboards, SPB Software make touch navigation easier. Generally, it's a cute, smart, pretty fast device for those who don't expect it to be a server in their pocket. I'm utterly satisfied with it :)

  • Pls someone tel Is this camera better than K750?

  • I just bought this phone..Overall, I find the phone is okay..nice..smart & sexy phone, but it seems slow. The volume of the sound is not that loud..and I can't figure out how to change my message tone to other tones as in I want to change it to Mp3. Anyone please help?

  • please help... can some one tell me how to change to English OS. THANKYOU VERYMUCH

  • Even with no program installed, its response of the touch panel is slow. I have to click on it for 0.5 sec for the click to responce. But of course, if I click on it for over a sec, then it becomes the "right click" which opens up another menu. So it is kind of hard to control.

  • do you have any idea if there's any firmware upgrade available or do we just have to wait? and also does anyone what's the cause of the slow resonse, is it because of the low RAM in the phone or like cause by too many programs in the phone

  • well i have heard that lg ks 20's software is very slow and it is not a very handy and user friendly phone could some one tell me about these problems one who owns the phone and has used it please tell me about the phone and how is it in use and its price thankfully yours PLZ REPLY

  • pls someone that has owned the fone for a while or has entered a 8gb micro, reply with the 8gig micro will it be slow? also with firware upgrades will it be able to handle 8gig?

  • Yes, the phone response is kind of slow, it is actually slower than O2 Atom. But remember when O2 Atom first came out, it was worse. After several firmware upgrade, the problem was fixed. I am hoping for the same for the KS20.

  • Have to say that the FM radio reception is compatible with Nokia phones which is much better than the HTC Cruise and O2 Atom.

  • hello. thankyou for your help. i try to do like you say. but i can not find. Aa icon. please help me .again thankyou

  • I've been reading some of the reviews and is it true the phone is slow?

  • for the person below me, to change it to english, you press on the four dots button :: then after that, a wheel button (means settings.) In that category, there will be a nother wheel button, press on there. and you will see Language ( Aa icon) press on there to change the system's language.

  • two gr8 softwares for keyboard.... i really love phonepad and touchpal check it out on google

  • Thanks J! I think in that case chinese version is my only choice

  • hi anyone knows any share software that can be synchronize with Mac... thanks

  • wai i just used this KS20, it does not include Chinese but other languages...

  • I bought this phone a week ago. It design is superb (like prada)compared to other PDA Phone. However I notice that KS-20 is really slow compared to my old O2-exec. And the phone is lack of basic features and program like "Voice dialing", "Worldmate" and "MS reader". (They were bundled with my old phone.) And it turned to hang oftenly when received the phone while playing Windows Media player or Excel mobile. Today I will have it replaced for this problem. At last, although this phone created many problems and slow responses, I, still, love this KS-20 for its stylish design and size that fits in my palm. If you want to buy it for heavy use, it will not fit your plan. But if you need the well-designed phone with Pocket PC function, it will be your answer.

  • thought of buying this phone but want to know with the English version can still read or type Chinese? Or i better get the chinese version so can vice versa can read English? Any recommendation?

  • Is there Windows Media in this phone? Thank you.

  • Does anyone know where can I get the free application which will increase the size of the virtual qwerty keyboard, thanks.

  • Hey, the phone launches here in the philippines this May... (why too long lg?) btw, my friends told me that the UI is great (thanx to windows), the haptic feedback is cool and the bad part, it slows down (lags) easily. just wondering howcome with a 400Mhz processor? Mabuhay

  • The announced specification is outstanding but many of our reviews (I'm from Russia) have proved that, firstly, 128MB RAM is stolen by some processes and only 30 MB are left for work, secondly, the astounding 400 MHz Qualcomm processor is downgraded to 288 Mhz at most... Now doubt whether to buy or not :(

  • What's the comment on the sound quality on phone calls? Was told it's quite bad. And is it Bluetooh v2.0? Most site mentioned Bluetooth V2.0 but the LG site said it's V1.2

  • sorry i didn't not mention about battery, er... could it be alan....

  • to J what u mean bat is supurb? explain in detail

  • well i have heard that lg ks 20's software is very slow and it is not a very handy and user friendly phone could some one tell me about these problems one who owns the phone and has used it please tell me about the phone and how is it in use and its price thankfully yours

  • hi did you manage to install any Chinese program ?

  • I got mine at the IT show too. (STarhub) It is good. The battery is superb!! Trust me!! The rest comply more or less the same as what this website had reviewed. Only weakness could be the weak display under strong light and also the lack of keypad. But i enjoy writing... ha...

  • well, i just bought from singtel, they do sell at their outlet. you guys may try west mall.

  • hi Peow, me again, i saw the singtel web on sat, the price was $438, i went to a hello shop waited half an hour queue and the staff told me that it was only to buy online they don't have the stock, i placed my order online but have to wait 10 days for it to deliver... what bugs u were mentioning???

  • Anyone in Singapore bought the LG LS20 ? Care to share how you feel about the phone ? I am a Singtel subscriber and they selling it at $498 man ... way too expensive ~ U guys think it will be a better idea to buy the LG LS20 after LG have fixed up the bugs ?

  • Phone is good but lack of built in key pad/ Battery weak/screen not big enough.

  • Plz some1 help me! I accidently locked my phone and now it wont unlock. Anyone knows what the default code is? I am on vacation and I dont have the manual on me and I cant find one on LG's site. please! many thanks

  • hey, any singaporean had bought dis fone? how was it? cause i might be buyin tonight..

  • Hi, I am in the uk and want to purchase this phone, however the shops in the uk dont have it yet. Will it be ok i.e work fine if I purchase it from america? just checking, coz never had a windows mob b4 and need to make sure it will work fine if I buy it from abroad ?

  • To Steven Kang! i didn't install any app! if a phone is a windows mobile device after a period of time it will hang! believe me! all the windows mobile devices hang...! i heard that LG will release an update to fix all the bugs! gapi, D3d, but dont know when...

  • Hi everybody, how is it with the sound quality. According to the review its pretty bad.Waht is your oppinion? Would it make better with a good earphones like Koss PortaPro...? I like design and everything about KS20 a lot, but music and sound quality is for me important as I'd like to use it as MP3 player as well... Thanks for your comments Gugli

  • Hi Steven, Which Plan you having? I saw StarHub Website the cheapest is 298.... with the highest possible plan. Anyway they have a discount of 100 dollars during the IT show last week. How's the set? Regards

  • Stated with FM, went LG site.. found nothing confirm this? so any FM?

  • KS20 is now selling in thailand. Price = HTC touch elfin + 3$ What a price.

  • KS 20 launch in Singapore today by Starhub $200/= with 24 months plan.I,m happy 1st LG phone comes with wifi better than Samsung.....

  • hey stylus, what app did you install to prevent the phone from hanging as you said? cheers

  • hey tom, may i ask which shop u tried it in, didnt think it was out yet, sory asuming that u from the uk as u have an o2 phone.

  • I was really excited about this phone. I tried it in the shop and decided not to buy it for two reasons. First, it is painfully slow; slower than my 02 mini which is three years old. Second, it's definitely gonna lose its looks fast because the finish is too polished. It'll scuff very easily and look old in a month. No thanks. Great shame.

  • Is this phone really good? Beside it is the exact shell they used for their Prada phone (of course with a very slight modification to it). And I heard LG phone always lag . . .and rtard abit. My frd bought the Viewty curse the phone too . . .

  • This i quoted from phonearena reviews, if any one knows about this , please advice : he/she said: This phone has big display bugs : many GAPI applications do not work, and most DirectDraw ones do not work either. Moreover, this PPC has no hardware support for the video decoding acceleration provided by the MSM7200 chipset used since LG did not mind putting the QTV driver in the ROM (while HTC has, with great result in CorePlayer). There is also a microphone problem (it become mute) when switching between 2G and 3G. All they have to say about it is "disable 3G and it will be fine" ! Lastly, LG's customer support is worst than anything. After more than 3 months of customer complaints, they are still pretending there are no problems at all and do not seem to plan a ROM update to correct theses huge problems (they haven't announce anything at least). Do not buy this LG if you plan to use it. Its sole good point is its look, but I would prefer being able to use it in good conditions... Thanks.

  • Does the LG KS20 has a GPS Navigation System??

  • Hi All Can i have an expert opinion on this PDA.. is it good concerning the 128 ram & processor speed " comparing to Jasjam?" what is the price ? some are telling around 400 $ on www.electronics.com & popularelect is 600 $ !! Thanks.

  • PINK The country is fine last time I checked, not that you would know as you probably are a LG employee in KOREA

  • Jumbo Jumbo Jumbo....are you dreaming now ? all together (whole UK ) will go against LG ? The country is deing under major problems , LG is not a priority, just buy another mobile and be happy. ( or order in cheap us$ on the internet ) cheers

  • steven, prada is a "normal" mobile phone, viewty's main selling point is the 5mp camera and ks20 is a pda phone with wm6. they are different so you need to consider what exactly is your requirement.

  • hi all, anyone know if this can install/support Chinese Language?

  • hi Kian and Peow thanks for all the info you guys gather, i have the samr feeling with Peow, singtel really down in their phone products, they don't have much pda phone unlike M1 and Starhut, maybe they are looking into iphone... hope singtel carrry Ks 20.

  • Even though I would love to have this phone, I think everybody in U.K. should boycot it as LG tinks that U.K is not in the same league as other europian and asian countries. They show this by releasing the phone almost everywhere else but in U.K. Thinking about it we should boycot buying LG altogether in U.K. if the think of us as a third rate country.

  • so far only StarHub have pre-launched this phone ... i asked the stuff and she told me that this phone will only be launched in Singapore on 30th March ... I checked out Singtel but they are only concentrating on their broadband promotions so its a thumbs up for Starhub users but thumbs down for Singtel & M1 users ... and the price for the phone at the IT SHOW is good ... I tried using the LG LS20 from the sales personel and i must say that it is really like what the others have said ... can't wait for Singtel to launch this phone ... haha

  • Thanks for your reply. Anyway, i think this is much depending on the local network. I am from malaysia and the network sux! Touch Duo only last aday for me. Whereas when i was using the phone in hong kong it last for 2-3 days with the same amount of usage!!!

  • hy! my LG battery has a 3 or 4 days life time with normal use and it has a 1050 mAh battery! compared with other phones this one has a great stand by time! dont know how LG did it but they are pros! :) compared with n95 for example that had a maximum of 2 days life time with minimum use... at normal use: 24 hours...! take care!

  • Hi Stylus, Thanks for all the information that you posted. One question on the KS20! Hows the battery life comparing with others phone that you know of. Apparently, Pocket PC seems to drain out battery like no other phone. I am currently a use for the HTC Touch Duo. LG website claims the battery to be 800mAh, whereas GSMArena 1050mAh??

  • I couldn't find the booth from Singtel... Also I didn't spend more time but just using finger to touch and play with options... I like it for the start as wording is big enough for me as i am already 48 year old and I do have problem seeing wording that is small like the E51 that I bought. I am still thinking about it... may be upgrade with M1 as I have one line with M1 will be ready for upgrade few months'time. I think you should like it. Good Luck.

  • Kian, it is me again, thanks for the info, did u see singtel selling? working weekdays will go on Sunday for try, did u play with it? how ?

  • Now KS 20 is launched in Singapore IT Show starting today. You can find it at Starhub's booth at level 3 selling at $398 with minimun plan.... But it is to late for me as I aready bought Nokia E51...

  • selling for us 566 in Msia...since last mth..real cool

  • i dont know the release date... in Australia! sorry :( anyway i bought my phone from a guy, ho boughted it from France! i paid for it 300 euros! the phone was new with all the accesories! i also use a x-sim to be able to use it! :P :) hope i spelled correctly! have a nice day!

  • thx stylus. and yes, n95 is diff. as i remembered it, it was REAL loud... as long as this one is not too soft, im fine with that :) now, when is it coming out in australia? sighs

  • n95 is louder than ks20!

  • do you mean ks20 is loud or n95 is loud?

  • sound qulity average (for example)compared with the n95! the phone is loud... i can hear it on the busy streets... dont know about others but i can hear it and for a pocket PC the sound it's( my opinion) ok! i can't compare it with the n95's sound quality because n95 has stereo speakears and that phone is very loud! and for the sms mp3 ringtone! it can be done!:) choose a mp3 file that you whant to assign for your sms event! copy the file in to your windows folder! now press start->settings->Sounds & Notification and select the Event dropdown list and look for 'Messaging: New Message', then choose the mp3 file! that's it! peace

  • yeah, regarding sound... 1. what's the quality? and is it true that it's not loud enough? 2. so we can choose sms ringtone from any mp3?

  • stylus: how's the music quality?

  • i had the same opinion about LG... and now that opinion has changed...! LG-Ks20 is my FIRST LG phone and it's very impressive! this is my opinion after 3 weeks of testing and playing with the Ks20! :) hope this will change your opinion in a good way!

  • this phone looks cool, i never had LG before cause ppl said this brand is not reliable, any comment?

  • @stylus, ok :) it really sounds good. thx for your comments.

  • it's already selling in HK and Msia, not in Spore n Indo yet. And no news on Australia at all. anyone has any clue? :(

  • hy! first of all i like the design! for now it's the coolest PCC on the market! the screen it's ok... like all the qvga display's! i like that the phone is very light, performance ok... camera very good and impressing! stand by time about 4 days! it's my first LG phone... and i'm very impressed! wifi good! i had a lot of PCC and symbian phones including the n95, n82, n73...etc but this one cought my attention! i recomend it to all! :) have a nice day!

  • @stylus I read below and realised that u have the ks20. Do u like it alot and is the screen bright and everything. And what do u like most about it, thx :)

  • dude your comparing 2 different phones!

  • I like the viewty a bit more cause, it has almost everything the ks20 has and a 5mp camera( i have the viewty btw). It has a document reader, that is very easy to use, u just cant edit the text like the ks20, ok it has no wifi and thats it. The DIVX is outstanding, playing with DVD quality- if not better, the res is better on the viewty,and sceen size as well, and its 262k not 65k like the ks20. It has several apps that u would find on smart phones such as muvee studio and smartlight. Apart from wifi the viewty wins hands down :)

  • to Onsy... lg ks20 and lg viewty are different phones... lg ks20 it's a windows mobile device with a 2 mp camera... lg viewty has a 5 mp camera and it doesn't have OS, it only has the LG software witch comes with the phone! if you whant a PCC, a Windows mobile device, go for the LG ks20... if you whant a camera phone go for the viewty!i've seen and tested viewty and the camera it's very good!best mobile camera for now!better than the camera from nokia n95! chears

  • to jason: browsing speed quite ok... when using WIFI! sound quality: good! stand by time 3 or 4 days, depends if you surf the web a lot, take pictures, music etc! camera is very impressive... i believe it's the best 2 mp camera i've ever seen in an PCC! it's true that phones that use Windows mobile hang... but if you know what app to install your phone will work ok! the phone is very light because it's made from fibre glass! sorry for my english but i'm from Romania ... chears

  • just to let you guys know, www.dechowireless.com have this phone in stock. i ordered mine yesterday and they say i will be getting in this coming monday. the price was reasonable too.

  • launched in Msia on 28th March 1st country in Asia..

  • FYI. KS20 is already officially launched today in Hong Kong at HKD3980.

  • i got the same answer when asking LG about australian release date... either they really don't know because there isn't a date yet, or they're keep everything a hush... i hope it's the latter, and that they're actually bringing the phone out in march! what do you guys think?

  • Thanks Onsy

  • to stylus: can u give u a brief review with the phone? like the speed with web prowsing?,,,, thanks,

  • I wrote to LG UK few days ao asking about the release date in UK and if I bought one from Germany could I change the language from German to English. The answer came back as "Thank you for your email, We regret to inform you that at present we have no information in regards to the release date of the KS20 in the UK. We are sorry to inform that it is not possible to change the operating system to english if you by a German model. Best regards, LG Electronics" This was on 25 February 2008.

  • is the camera for this phone good & any other bad / good opinions about this phone ? i really want to know because i can't decide whether to get this or the viewty. ty (:

  • if by march, there's still no news on this in asia/australia, i'm gonna be soooo annoyed.

  • i have an LG ks20 but mine doesnt have any problems! it's a great phone in my opinion! standy by time it's about 4 days, doesnt stop, or hang, i've instaled a lots of apps, themes!... maybe it's just luck!

  • i have many problems with this phfone internet explorer is very slow programs blocking i have to turn it off every time when i finish a call many many problems

  • I asked the LG shop at Vivo. both went there personally and called. they are saying early next month will launch. I estimate that to be less than 1000 dollars without contract. Hope it will be less than 500 dollars with simple contract. (Starhub)

  • Kian, i don't see KS 20 in Sg web, did u see correctly?

  • why internet explorer is sooo slow

  • KS20 shows up in the Singapore LG website... I think it is going to be available very soon.

  • To Cyberchick, You cannot switch languages like that with Windows Mobile, its not like Windows for your PC. You have to have the English version of Windows Mobile in order for it to be in English. Its a completely different software package.

  • yes to wifi. no to gps. which is fine by me. all i care right now is, WHEN IS IT COMING OUT!?! if you go to , you can now click on ALL the countries listed. couldn't do this previously. does that mean we'll see the phones out very soon?

  • Does this have WiFi??

  • windows mobile phones can use mp3 as ringtones it just has to be placed in the windows\ringtones folder on the device or the root of "my documents" on the storage card

  • Hi,everybody Lg ks20 or viewty has folder lock,Please tell me anybody.

  • it's already february! where is my phone?!

  • i was wondering that too. i remember some PocketPCs can't change SMS tone to an MP3 sound, is this true? camera-wise, according to the review, it's very good?

  • Hey guys! I need help with changing ringtones and incoming text tones. I cant seem to figure out how to change the tones. The vortex tone is making me go crazy. can someone tell me how u can change the tones? Thanks a mil!

  • how about the camera?? jz 2mp....!!

  • Great job LG...a pocket pc under 100g, slim and too sexy for a smartphone!!!...comes with an FM radio too. Over to you HTC, can you beat this?

  • Hi,language is french,you have to get english version of windows to setup english language send me the offers and we ll work out something

  • hi roman - i'm very interested in purchasing this phone via ebay - im in california. is the language on the phone set to english?

  • i want to know the price!......the features sounds great.......

  • This looks like a good contender to the ipod phone. I hope it takes business away from it.

  • What site in france did you get it from?

  • I've had this phone for over 2 months now manage to get it through a friend who works for Vodaphone. It's a great overall phone batterlife is not too bad gets recharged every 4-5 days but I am not a heavy user by any streach of the imagination. wireless facility works well, IE browser allos you to browse mobile internet. a few annoying things, can not text without using the stylus and as expected casing is very prone to fingerprints/scratches. One major problem since I've had the phone people have complained of really bad interference on the line. I can hear them clearly but apparently I am almost inaudible. Buzzing sound comes up when taking video too so am thinking may be a hardware problem with the onboard mic. Have been using a bluetooth headset to get around this but as you can imagine gets a bit annoying. anyhow apart from this all the other features work pretty good. Having said this will probably sell it on ebay and try and get hold of the Samsung non-armani phone (nned to have wifi).

  • For the past 3 months i waited for the new LG KS20 (announced in September 2007) to arrive. It seems an excellent phone, but this is getting a bit annoying. Even though everywhere i look it says "coming soon", i don't see this phone coming. Do you have plans to release this phone? Are there problems and you cannot release it? All other companies (HTC) have introduced and launched their new products (HTH Dual Touch) but LG hasn't. We can wait for ever for this phone!!!

  • still not available?? will buy other brands

  • status says: available, january 2008. but no news on this side of the world (asia pacific/australia)... when was the official release date?

  • Heard its going to be released in the US as the LG MS20/LG MS25

  • I just really looked at d specs, wow its amazing faster than d n95's and it has better ram. Divx player as well, good job lg , document editor that rock, this rock, an its very gorgeous and LIGHT!!!

  • It has the problematic Qualcomm MSM7200 Chipset. Are the multimedia drivers ok for it?

  • *Processor should be 520MHz *Camera should be 3MP *Price must be cheaper than Imate, HTc etc

  • to mircha do you know where i can get english version of windows?and where i can un..ock the phone.i paid 230 euro for the phone and 20 euro for postage from france to uk.

  • kanekcl HTC is better, far better. But this look nicer

  • You will need another windows version. If you got it from France, you will have french windows on it...you need to install english version...how much was it ?

  • i also want it now!!!!

  • HI,does anybody knows how to change the language on this phone,i got it from france and i need to make menus english.pls help

  • i want it now!!!

  • please make a review of this smartphone, because i�m goin to buy one, please!!!

  • Wow, I love the first picture in the Pictures section.

  • Wow, looks like LH's answer to the HTC Touch. Hass the same GUI and it the same size and mmegapixel count, I wonder which it the better device. Looks like a win for LG, tthough.

  • how slow is the menus and music players etc.... cos the samsung armani is v slow to use and navigate

  • the phone looks good but just had few q's bout features can anyone tell me what the battery is like?? does the features kill the battery?? previous LGs have needed recharging every 2-3 days can u text with the stylus or fingers or is there a qwerty

  • Hi... Anyone can give me insights? Is HTC Touch better than this phone or the other way around? Planning to buy my first PDA phone. Thanks!

  • Check this LG KS20 demo out! someone has been able to mimic the iPhone's features on the LG KS20. Very Cool!

  • what are you talking about? anything gsm can be in canada. Just becuase it won't be carried by a major company doesnt mean you cant bring it over here.

  • this phone is very beautiful i like this and i send a marvelous applaudis for the constructor

  • It will never be in Canada.

  • Hi there A few answer to this question pls someone that owns the fone tell me as much as u can about texting with thios phone? can u use finger? overall info thanks Answer: With internal keyboard not with your fingers. Most easiest if you use external software with big letter buttons on screen. to anyone who's lucky enough to own this phone. can you give us an insight regarding the camera...how is it? Answer: No excellent but good enough for regular picture.

  • Im getting it sent to me from Germany (im in Canada) in 2 weeks I will post soon after.. hang tight!!!

  • pls someone that owns the fone tell me as much as u can about texting with thios phone? can u use finger? overall info thanks

  • to anyone who's lucky enough to own this phone. can you give us an insight regarding the camera...how is it?

  • Very nice phone...can someone tell me if it is available as quad band,its kind of disappointing it has all thos features and triband.

  • its the best phone its so handy with so many capabilities, i have it only 2 days and i m so happy, could anyone say me how i change the language in english when i m writing a text message?

  • it has been released under another Lg Prada

  • HOT PHONE...finally!!! A good-looking phone with wifi (besides the iphone), and its thinner than the viewty. It's got style as well as features, unlike the Samsung Armani and LG Prada.

  • i think this is the best phone so far. but it only has 2 mp camera.. it'll be better if it has higher mp...5 mp just like viewty. or even higher.

  • yeah i am waiting patiently for this phone to be released as well with all of you guys... but i think the reason why its being delayed is because quite possibly lg might make some quick minor adjustments by possibly adding wm7 and if thats the case i will surely wait an extra 5 months cuz i know this phone will be the best competitor against the iphone.

  • it is available ihn germany

  • what is wrong with LG?Release this phone or else......

  • can this be used without the elec pen,and is it a trouble like samsung touch screen phones...purchase this phone and "rate it after the purchase" so people will not be dissapointed when receiving the device

  • this phone is still not available and yet WINDOWS 7 is already in the horizon. just a matter of time and this phone will be obsolete. technology is really in the fast phase now.

  • i only wish that the 2 meg cam isn't disappointing

  • the best phone which i have... i love it its so stylish and powerful... in france it was launched on the end of november...

  • window6 os makes lg ks20 the godfather of all application.lg pls make the memory card up to 2G.THANKS LG.

  • this phone is awesome.pls lg make this bastard (lg ks20) avaliable.

  • ks20 is the best phone lg has ever produced.lg we are waiting for this phone in nigeria.what excite me most about lg ks20 is that it has windows os,good design,etc.nokia is really in deep trouble when this phone is officially avaliable.well done lg.

  • still "coming soon"????

  • when's LG gonna release this awesome device!!! com'on~~

  • I think this phone is an imagination,it does not exist.

  • nokia is in trouble when this phone ks20 is officialy announce.

  • perfect phone why ruin it by forgetting nice big(onscreen) keyboard?

  • @ Garv Garv don't fake around here.... It is not launched in India...

  • hey, thanks for the info!! =D garv, is it really so bad? why so?? anymore users out there care to share about this phone? really appreciate it. thanks in advance and happy new year!

  • This phone is stylish and has a lot of functions,but the phone is tri-band only.It is not good.I prefer quad-band phone+HSDPA.

  • kopisi, it is not released in HK yet. some other sites show that the release date should be in Jan 08 for Asia region.

  • this is really a worst cell in the market i have it .it only two month old i wants to cell it any cost .if u r going to buy this cell then wait change ur category

  • wm6 with no voip capabilies... sorry but sucks

  • sigh... still no news of its launch date in SG?? someone mentioned it'll be launched on 25 dec in HK earlier on.. has it really been launched there??

  • the phone is really great tons of appl, but you know its WM6 and also great battery life for such a phone if you not use a lot of wifi. it stays on for 3-4 days with 20-30min of talk time and what a design for pocket pc.. i love it

  • the phone is only tri-band so not too good.

  • i lovt this phone and i love life lg makes the best phone the cam is beautifull

  • I think this phone going to be a nice phone, since LG they are using the most advance OS which is version 6, I hope to be launched soon, Cheer!!!!

  • does the KS20 have a internal search mode that will allow searching for a contact using any one item inputted in the notes? would anyone know when the KS20 will available in the philippines? thanks everyone. merry christmas!

  • I think that one of the greatest achievments in this phone is its thickness, it seems that it is not that bulky as other phones are.

  • just hope it comes with a good camera. it may not be at par with cybershot brand phone, at least an above average cam will do nicely

  • hope it's not just 64MB RAM.. under "specifications", it only mentioned it has 128MB Internal Memory.

  • this phone is the bomb (looks a lil like the iphone tho). hope its affordable and they don't need to recall or upgrade it

  • If it actually does what it says, it will be a great choice. I'm looking forward to buy it!! Release it already!!!!!! Cheers, Vicky >>>If you are not living life at the edge, you are taking way too much space!

  • gee... guys.. does any of you knows what's it's RAM? it wasn't stated here in the specs page.

  • All LG need to do is give this wee pup a 5 megapixel camera and DVD quality video recording and it will be game over. Nokia will have kimchee all over its face.

  • In Greece is already released. But it's distributed by Vodafone, so the VoIP is locked (from what I have heard). I also heard that it's some problems on pairing with bluetooth headsets, and that there is NO tv out...

  • This PDA Phone sure looks sleek and features to boot! Well done LG. LG is consistent in churing our gorgeous phones... chocolate...shine, prada, Viety and now KS20. LG is really forefront in design dept. I will wait for this phone to be lauched in Singapore. I am confident, this phone will have many fans too !

  • 12,25,Dec....I wonder is it another rumor? ..hope LG do keep their promise and release the ks20 in 4th quarter this year...

  • Lol! Someone said KS20 does not have Voip?! It should has.. Any infos? It's rly strange why any of the mobile sites still not reviewed this sweety! Only previews.. Come on! Go and review it detailed! It's so sweet and full-featured WM6.. Cool! Cheers!

  • WoW it's nice phone I can not wait for it. what is the lunch time???????

  • This phone expect to arrive on 25th Dec '07.

  • I bought this phone at Greece :D It's very beautiful and worths the money i paied for it!(400 euros) I suggest you to buy it;)

  • it doesn't have Voip :X

  • How do I hard reset this phone??? Somebody help me please~

  • when is this phone ever going to release in asia!!!! even the european release seems to be a secret to most people.. its a good phone but no point showing it at trade fairs and web-pages for 3 months!! let people buy it!!

  • This phone just came out in Europe, but there is not news of an offical release this Christmas in the States? Does anyone know otherwise? Does anyone know if this phone can be bought from an importer directly from europe? If so, what is their website. They should provide more solid informaton to avoid cx from buying another phone in the meantime:)

  • hey, dude...ks20 is made by LG, not samsung..and as the font you mentioned, I can asure you that most windows mobiles can install/uninstall different fonts if you like...

  • Can you adjust the font, people with bad eyes cant see it, does it do video ? and does it have a speakerphone ? otherwise I would love it.

  • I think ks20 is compatible of most GSM carriers if unlocked, including T-mobile and AT&T....

  • This phone may be come out on 25th Des '07 and for the price you can check on www.cellhut.com

  • How many days can take the battery?

  • is this official available? Can't wait too much for the official release.

  • If only LG would combine the functions & camera of the Viewty... with the style, wifi connectivity, & other features etc of this phone... + sort out battery life & the camera flash they'd be onto a winner in so many ways... It'd effectively be a brilliant compromise between the style of an iphone & functionality of a nokia or SE!

  • where does it say 190? i see 90...but maybe i am reading it wrong...

  • yea...190g but thats why they have cases...weight shouldnt even matter much...and with the touchscreen board on ks20...itll be a large learning curve and prone to more mistakes!

  • to dsrtfox: why would u need a qwery board when u can have this: well, u r kinda right, the HTC is pretty good as well, but 190gr of weight? c'mon, thats just too much... I don't want my pants to drop when I carry my cell with me...

  • i think this phone is overrated...well when i first saw this phone..i was like wow..nice phone and imma be the first one to get it..but NO QWERTY board...and qwerty board is a must for word doc. and etc for faster work to be done...design is very awesome with 9.1 but my hype for this phone went dramatically down..so instead of waiting for this phone..i bought the HTC TYNTN II which is an awesome device...if you want touchscreen(2.8) and a qwerty board that slides out with the screen tilting up 45 degrees to watch movies and a OS of MICROSOFT MOBILE 6.0...then i must say get HTC TYTN II(ATT TILT) or if you dont mind not having a touchscreen...NOKIA N95(which i previously owned) Nokia n95 is better with pictures and video quality but HTC TYTN II surpass N95 with everything else...

  • i own n95,im thinking of this phone?but maybe i'll still wait for n98 its d best

  • It's a first LG with the good battery (a little) And i just can say it's Perfect Good job LG!

  • The ratings for this mobile are insane! Design- 9.2! Features- 9.1! Performance- 9.0! IMO, way too overrated! Please guys wait for the phone to be officially available before making judgments about the phone. This phone is NOT the best out there.

  • u know.. u won't want to blow up pic taken from mobile phone camera, nor you want to print it out on large size paper.. i think 2mp is ok as long as quality is good.. i remember my first digital camera, 1.3mp, able to print out 4R size photo with very decent quality..

  • This is like a some kind of answer to the Apple iPhone :) Anyway i`d better get this mobile instead iphone.

  • you can watch demo of this mobile

  • wats the price of the phone????

  • in serbia this phone 350 eura

  • seems like a prada-like handset

  • I am way due for a phone upgrade. I currently have a Motorola A780 which I'm still in love with (I think Motorola never meant to pack this phone up with features as no other phone in their current line up seems to come close to it). Honestly, if my phone had all the features of the N95 but with the same hardware styling and dual dial pad (outside and via the touch pad) then I'll never leave motorola. Anyway, why do they keep messing with my emotions? First is was the I-mate Ultimate (which by the way never hit the production line), then the HTC touch (which I think is a great phone), then the N95 8GB which is an AWESOME phone and now this... the LG KS20? Of all the phones, the Nokia N95 8GB was closest to my heart; but the lack of a touch screen kept pushing me away. The LG KS20 on the other hand has two features that may convince me to really dump the N95 8GB... a touch screen and peep this... a document editor. Yes! you can edit office documents like word, excel etc. I'm not a big camera fan so the 2mpx is sufficient and I can definitely leave without the HSCD and infra red function. So, this may be it guys... LG KS20!

  • Will this phone actually reach the UK? Is there still no news on a date? If i buy from Europe how do I go about changing it to English language?

  • the disadvantage of a tribang phone is that u do not get reception in the northern us and southern canada. unfortunately, I happen to love in this area.

  • whats the disadvantage of a triband phone? is there a hi-perfofmance battery available for this phone?

  • 400 euros in greece. available from this friday.very good price for pda i think.

  • From where did you get this information about tha battery? Do you own the phone?

  • i think it's not a good mobile.because it's charge is not last long for 2 hours when u use.it's a hazard of lg mobile that the charge not last long for 1 day WITHOUT USE!

  • this is the tightest phone i have ever seen it is my fav. ever ya know dudesssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

  • wow this 4ne is the best ever!!!!!!!!! its so good looking i want 1!!!

  • Seems like the battery won't last... too bad - otherwise it could be perfect!

  • tri-band again, and windows mobile sucks. nice design tho. just wish the viewty had wifi. then that would be perfect. but it's a marketing ploy, of course...

  • This phone look really nice .. but im afraid that the smart features in this phone will make me feel dumb .. :)

  • this seems to be my future phone ... the style of PRADA phone with the functionality of a personal computer. It's brilliant.

  • Anyone know if this utilises the same haptic feedback technology as the Viewty?

  • wow...cool

  • I think it is so cool it rocks i love it

  • very similar to the HTC Touch. I have the touch and it's by far the most sleek, efficient, touchscreen phone ever. I highly recommend it..

  • oh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Wht the hell is this phone

  • I have iphone and its not that good. Not that many functions on the phone and its not compatible with windows so.... This LG i think is really nice

  • no keypad.....too bad

  • i love it? i wont it? how much is it?

  • its vgud cell phone plz try to introduce it v soon in pakistan too.n plz try to keep its cost low upto 10 or 15 thousand. thanks alot

  • Originally, phones were made for calling other people. Nowadays, phones have become computers are are more complicated to use. This is why we have laptops!

  • I saw it and touched it (no OS though) recently during Digital Technology Expo (Athens, GR). LG Rep's there told me it will sell for about E600 in GR. God, most beautiful gadget I 've ever seen. Makes iPhone (which I also played with) look like its bigger, older (slimmer though) brother. Black is beautiful indeed. Problem is there's no GPS, but I wouldn't mind, even with a 400 MHz processor (specs not clear yet). Only mention of it on expansys.com but without a price. I personally hope it hits the market in Xmass, otherwise I'll go for either i-mate ultimate 9502 or the e-ten X800. I now have the Qtek S200

  • does it have 3.5 jack on the phone

  • It is avaliable from 6th Nov in some countries of Europe. In Germany it is available by Vodafone for 499 Euros without contract.

  • it looks okay kinda like the iphone a lil but i dont think it should get dat high of a rating if it hasnt even come out but il be waiting to see the iphone 2

  • i dont think this is available yet ...

  • ks 20 is available?? from where? did not see any info on the web...can you tell us where you see that phone?

  • this mobile is already available

  • Gogola, you are wrong. GPS functionality does not depend on software. The phone needs a built-in GPS receiver to have GPS capability.

  • gps, every pda can be used as a gps navigator with an externel bluetooth gps receiver cpu,

  • where did you read about the cpu specs? Provide more links about this phone is released yet.

  • Usually GPS is first a hardware module with software for mapping. GPS is a kind of radio that gets the signals from satellites. That radio module doesn�t use the frequencies and standards from cellular networks and if it is missing you can�t have direct access to satellites that transmit the position, you might just use some less independent solutions based on cellular relay, against a fee and not sure about all coverage.

  • GPS is a software not an hardware functionality meaning it can be instore into the phone.

  • GPS Peter, GPS is missing and its lack will pull down this phone. BTW a blue screen and some fingerprints on its slick case might give you a better look to it; it is too stealthy in that the only picture about it spread.

  • Wi-fi / HSDPA / 92.5g / 400 Mhz / Beautiful / FM radio... What else could you ask for? I 'm really looking forward to get my hands on this phone, no matter the cost!

  • Does it have GPS receiver?

  • this is one killer phone, wish it will come out in U.S this end of the year.

  • @daniel can't compare to viewty... this is smart phone and viewty isn't... so it's up to you, what you need...

  • is this better then lg viewty

  • nice phone, looks terribly hot for me. what makes it unique to other phone? is its performance as good as o2 xda atom?

  • This is what I have been waiting for. Less than 100g in weight, Windows Mobile 6.0 and plenty of processing power. It will give iPhone a run for it's money.

  • man this phone looks really good a damn good it's hot just hottttttt!!!!!!!

  • HEY HEY HEY have a LooK HERE click on international site coz its on english.

  • does this phone have speaker options so i dont have to use a blue tooth???? other than that i would love to get this phone if it does coz it is hot hot hot!

  • yesterday? nice phone

  • How much for this Pda?This PDa is damn Good

  • Daaaaaaaaaam Gud

  • This will most likely be the phone I get in the spring when my contract is up with Sprint. It has everything I need in a phone, and it's THIN!

  • i want this pda..!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • 4YB3. This is marketing tactics. They put product which come in future or never come out to keep you away from buying other similair phones. By the time if come out then you right then other phone companeis doing same thing and they make you keep waiting. As HP 610 doing same thing. It suppose to been out Nov and now they talking about next year 1Q/2008. But I am not sure about quality of LG KS20 but if they can put a PDA phone so slim then is great.

  • Why this piece of black plastic is better than other with

  • can i install tomtom6 in it? i have an external gps(bluetooth) will it work?, and yes is compatible whit wm6

  • this phone is awesome!! best of all phones so far. question is, when this phone available for purchase? i hope it will come out soon!! because if this phone takes several months or even a year to manufacture then there will be more better phones coming out and this phone will be obsolete.

  • nope i did not post a comment about the processor, but for the brand?!?! look at the picture darling

  • I mean there is written that it has:

  • Does it have autofocus or not? ­

  • to the person with no name, who's frontin on Chantal (eventhough she didn't write the comment about the processor): go check this site...

  • Hey Chantal!! Who told you that this pda has a 400Mhz proceessor?? ANd what is his brand please??

  • to the stupid person vwqq, its not just a new os, prada has just a normal lg phone os, while this one has a normal lg os and windows mobile 6, can you mister stupid install windows mobile on prada....NO! the phone is wider with a smaller screen then prada the camer is in a diferent place from prada the only thing this phone has with prada is the simple straight lines look thats all, this phone all so has wifi,hsdpa,400mhz processor,tv out,MP3/MPEG4/WMV/AAC/DivX player,java,and lot more so its a tottaly diferent phone from prada it has a look of prada but under the hood its a different story from prada, its a mobile office smart phone.

  • Does anybody know anything about its processor?? :0

  • I am very sorrow that it absent GPS. Other spec is very nice..

  • Stupid people read the specifications! its not the same as prada it has windows 6 mobile and million other stuff.

  • Is this the same as the Prada model.. is it getting released with its name changed..?

  • When is this phone coming out? i hope by end of this year!!! and i hope this will cost less then 600USD then im in!!!

  • No Hard drive???

  • Lg ks20 is a very good looking windows 6.0 mobile phone. Touch screen, 2 mp camera, 128 mb internal memory, memory card slot, 3g, bluetooth 2.0 , thanks lg..

  • I wonder if this tech guys from LG, expect the cosumers to walk around with a charger. Looking at the bettery life, it is not a great phone after all. But I have to agree that the design is very appealing. :((( Too bad, too sad.. They should really work on the bettery life of their phones!!

  • is this phone the LG version of the iphone?

  • What is IE mobile 7.6? Is that an updated version of IE for mobile? soda

  • i have befor lg this model loks good but sound quality?

  • the phone should be available nov sometime and verizon will be offering it

  • the people who are pressed with 5mp+ phone don't know anything about cameras and are just racist against asian companies liek SE, LG, Samsung, HTC, etc.

  • guys the only thing that is wrong with this phone is that nothing seems wrong.poeple are in disbeleive of this phone because it is not A nokia phone.my opinion is that LG might have hired new gsm design with creative instinc to known what smart guys want.althougt it is not yet out.(may be this phone is a strategy to win fans to LG).

  • It looks great, but let us wait till it is there. Not eveything that looks great is also great.

  • guys stop talking about music.what does james bond need music 4.more features more weight.

  • what about the sound quality? Is like W series?

  • I see GPS feature was removed! That's too bad, initially it was supposed to have GPS-ONE from QualComm. Very disappointing, actually it is cool as design because it is very simple as plastic casting, it is a simple glossy slim case.

  • who needs a qwerty keyboard when u can have this!

  • i really dont know whats wrong with all this lg touchscreen phones, viwety,prada and this one all have gliches with smoothnes when you work with him, the responding times are slow when you click on somthing and the animation when you go from function to function is all glichy doesent want to load the hole page nice and in flash it load part by part really slow

  • no qwerty keybord? are you sure about that, if this dont come with qwerty keyboard then im off the buying list for sure.

  • Why do people keep complaining about short battery life? 400 h of standby sounds great to me, I'm not making too big of a deal about the 4 h talk time =\ Does the talk time usage include using all other functionalities such as working and playing games?

  • no qwerty keybord!!!!!!!!!!!

  • what about gps guys ?

  • this phone is great,but i would like to know about the processor!

  • LG we break the laws of physic mass energy relationship if this phone be manufacture.we are waiting.LG good thinking.it seems LG has employed new designers lately.

  • does this phone have voip.pls someone tell me.love this phone.LG KEEP IT UP.

  • producing more of this design will run down market for other mobile phone manufactures.LG HAS DISCOVERED the mistry between design and weight

  • this phone wants to make me spend my savings the design is awesome.

  • i so much love the design and the features of this phone.i would have love to give it a name like JAMES BOND KS20.this is the best ever. LG keep your good work going. Nigerian are in love with this phone.

  • this one is mine, let it come as soon as possible. poor HTC, O2, and ........

  • This phone is just amazing!! it;s Korean company you should buy it. You will never regret!! Also Samsung mobiles phones are just grate as LG. Believe me!!

  • It's brilliant! Has all you need and the form factor. So what if the battery doesn't last very long, it'll be fun, fun, fun... Can I have one now, thank you very much?

  • oh my god !! super design !! and with win mobile 6 !! its the greatest of them all !!

  • does this phone have voip(voice over internet protocol).if yes pls tell us.

  • anybody know? does it support how many MB of MicroSD memory? Thanks very much. For me. this one I like it very much. No GPS never mind. but I need big memory. for my documents, music.

  • it would have been the best phone in the whole wide world if only the latest technology called UMA UNLICENT MOBILE ACCESS was included in place of wifi only.LG U ARE DOING GREAT.

  • the fone looks classy.brilliant design.

  • i think that this phone would be better if the OS is windows CE 6 and have alonger lasting battery. windows ce 6 is more advance OS than windows mobile 6. since windows mobile 6 uses windows CE5 as a base. if you compare the interface on the HTC touch and this phone you will see why.

  • When will it be released? How does it compare with other PPC mobiles such as HTC P3600 or O2 atom? Really doubt if LG can pack so many things in such a small device.

  • @ Chris The processor speed of the phone is 400MHz. Please check this:

  • Super mobile phone....if I only had the money *sigh*

  • until cell phones camera r good as cameras, then mp dont matter. this phone is great but it needs an SE battery.

  • perfect, finally a PDA that looks good, light,small.....yes, let it come to me as soon as possible

  • find this phone cpu speed...most important part - over 200mhz at least.

  • Can anybody please tell me where or which site does it say about the processor on this phone? Many Thanks

  • A2DP bluetooth, HSDPA, WiFi, Windows 6.0 on a phone that looks that good? Only problem is I want it now. And I lost faith in LG a while ago...

  • 128ram, not shared memory omg.. thats OS'based phone, not flash UI.. omg gsmarena..

  • qulcomm msm7200 on board..528mhz on board in a 13mm body.. it's mine next.. the kaiser is too heav/big..don't need qwerty,but super compact&beautyfull pocketpc as this one..

  • This one most everythings is so good. This wil be mine when it available. But m not sure how many of gb memory support? Anybody know? Tell me too. Thanks.

  • LG is coming up with some really really nice phones Brilliant LG Keep it up!!!

  • Crap camera, as always in LG phones. no AF, no macro mode. a little bit "chinese" phone. only lack of second battery ;)

  • too bad i dont really like the look of IPHONE...

  • nice phone hmmm good phone hmmm excellent phone maybee pure geniuse definatly this phone has the makings of one of the phones for the decade award really easy interface with programmes and software upgrades that a 5 year old can do lg have out classed themselves with this one a phone to compare all other phones from . i own the prada and qwerty and i will be buying this one as well next G capable this will have lightning speeds to down load wifi material

  • great upgrade, ditched the stupid prada name that jacked up the price and clean crisp design, same as the samsung p520

  • this is awesome!!!! too bad i dont really like the look of i...

  • New generation LG phones all come with very clear icons. Well done LG...

  • People are so spoiled these days, why does it matter if you only have a 2 MP camera on a phone? If you want a higher MP camera either get the higher end phones or get a digital camera. With a lower MP, the phone drops in price, its that simple. Deal with it, you have to take the good with the bad, thats with all phones. Other than that, this phone, ifs cheap enough could be my next phone.

  • Div X Perfect

  • Hello everyone... just a few questions, maybe some of you can answer: is it possible to take mp3 tracks as ringtones (unlike on the Prada)? what about the headphone jack; is it 2.5 or 3.5mm? is the touchscreen better than the one on the Prada? no more 5, 6, 7 times touching to make it react? how's the quality of the speaker for a) music and b) calling? thanks for reading... greetings from Switzerland

  • Whtas the difference between this and prada?

  • this phone has got every things what a phone should have only should work more on battery life .........

  • this phone got every thing what i need from a phone

  • It uses the QUalcomm MSM7200, running on 528mhz as I see the official msm7200's tech sheet in the qualcomm site.. Why with this chip? See the proof in gogle>images->search lg ks20.. Please LG, Don't delay the ks20's cells! THe most compact/less heavy too!/ pda with these specs..

  • witch prosessor does this phone use?

  • Great phone! Should have been at least 3.2Mpx Camera & Quad Band

  • looks cool man !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • this is the 4th phone i own now thank to my daddy it is really nice3.2 meg pix camera good photo shoots dont like the symbian op system it is really hard for me to use with my computer hense why i use the prada it makes me look good and every one else silly with their pathetic phones i have class and style when it comes to phones dont go for second best cuase u will always loose the qwerty is a good choice but it depends on what u use a phone for i guess bye bye

  • LG KS20 is the phone but it has no Infrared port and no HSCSD

  • cool features! HSDPA & wifi. stylish look. I 'd buy this mobile phone!! !o!

  • i was sooo shock to see this from coming from lg, i will definetely gif it a try however this is the first window os from lg, so i dun think it will be stable yet, but im absolutely excited abt it, and who cares abt mp camera? do u really think u will take more photos/vidoes than making calls on handphone???

  • everyone is going touchscreen. cool. personally, 2MP is fine with me as long as the camera captures good pictures (e.g. SE W900i, Samsung D600), but people are so engrossed with phone cams with higher resolution capabilities. so i'm guessing this phone would sell more if it's at least 3MP.

  • i am just loving the lg phones now..i have just been waiting them to bring out a wi-fi version of the prada look-a-like

  • This is good because of th ms os.. it will sell well to businesses

  • who knows about the release date of this phone?i think it`s better than i-mate or HTC!!!

  • its horible phone nothing new on mobile market 2mpix ... wake up LG time is passing by n95.samung d600 , SE k850

  • it Seems LG is keen on following the "Prada" design. It is nice, but I'm not a fan of the stylus, or the Cameras MP. On the upside there is a nav button.

  • only 2mp,,, go buy a proper camera for proper pics, but 2mp is still great for quick snaps etc! rather have a great phone, good features, 3G, touchscrean, large screan than a 5mp camera
