LG L1100 - User Reviews

  • i have one hes a very good cellphone and usefull(very good for daily use)

  • lovely phone.it has voice recorder and a good color display. the price is also good.

  • i miz my LG alot!! it takes 4months to break it!! damn!! but i miz it!!

  • the phone sux , its too slow , infrared has to be installed manually and the instructions dont explain how to install infrared in detail, it has bad coverage , whnever i turn it off it changes settings and ucant change the ringtones apart from the ones on the installation disk.

  • i hate this phone...the infered doesn't even work and the memory is rubbish....

  • i LOVED it..i had it for a year and hen i dropped it and it got run over by my dads car.. i miss you so so much mowby... *sniff*

  • Its a beautifulphone otuside, inside its ridiculous.I regret why i got it form the 1st place. To access your downloaded items, U need to pay R1000000 for that. so its ont for me Thank you.

  • this is a beautifull phone outside, inside is rubbish. i will not advice people 2 buy it. internet access its incredible dificult. try to download product- but unsing the downloaded products its tough. its useless. ps love

  • Its a marvelous gadget.Too cute for men

  • Old and battered, just like me, but I love this phone. Buttons big enough to see and use. But where do I get a new battery for it?

  • How do you connect the phone to the computer so you can transfer pictures. As I am not incredibly bright...please include anything that i may mess up...

  • i love my LG L1100. it has a brilliant camera and the screen resoloution is wonderful. i have one question that is how do you get half decent ring tones for example a song u love how do u get tht on it? the battery life is short but i charge it eevery night when im asleep and the only other problem is it wont read my laptop when you try to connect it via infared.. how can i fix this?

  • I use LG1100 and I discover that its very good, I have enjoyed working with it, it is reliable also, I think it is one of the best cause I have used other Phones also but this one is different. Only that I find it difficult to connect to internet with it and I need help on that. Thanks LG

  • All you need to link the LG L1100 with a computer is a Data Cable. This should be included with your standard phone pack. Install that, along with your LG Contents Bank CD-ROM, then you're set! From there you can download your own wallpapers, ringtones, games and the like-- all for free! Trust me ;)

  • I need the internet settings for my LG1150 my chip is provision already but i need the settings the company im working with says they dont carry that phone so they dont have the settings.

  • everyone thats wondering; i know how to get the photos attatched to the phonebook contacts! u must take a photo on the smallest sized photo(48x80) and they will automically be saved into phonebook pictures and then u can put their pics onto their names!! quite simple really.

  • Like the design! Still... the phone doesn't uplink with computer, neither via IR nor cable. the phone transfers quite a lot of my calls to my voicemail, the battery doesn't last for more than 2days, 3 if I don't use it. I hope LG improves this for new phones, because the phone wasn't cheap when I bought it and I think it's in everybody's interest if these "problems" are straightened up for LG's next phones. BUT as mentioned; I really like the design!

  • can't seem to get infra red to work or get photo onto the phonebook either

  • nice phone looks good but can't seem to operate the infrared, GPRS and how to fix photos in the phone book. maybe they should not have placed them there if they know that those features won't function

  • The phone is good but the infrared is just not working please could you do something about that? Thanks

  • The phone is great but the infrared dosn't work!! Just tried to transfer music file across, it doesn't work!!

  • I can not seem to attach pictures to contact can someone tell me how to go about it

  • Cant seem to operate camera it appears with message !Please try again, any suggestions, Col

  • hi there, i am fammiliar with infared but i cannot seem to work the infared on this fone. can you help me?

  • Nice phone although it has some irritating problems. Phone calls go sometimes directly to voicemail, even with full signalstrength. Read about this problem in other countries, I'm from Holland and same problem. Also the intrnal memory is way too little, is there a way of buying extra? Or pt the 600kb for animations with the 600 for photo's? Also get the anoying messge that I've received a 'voice-mesage', can't get it of the screen and have no idea what a voice message is. Nice phone, but this frustrating problems will make me look for an other one soon.

  • i like the phone it has lasted a good while with me and i usually dont keep a phone for long but i like it

  • hi there .. all* of your problems can be solved by just reading the manual .. anyway, the infrared connection has been locked my LG ..don't know for now how to unlock it(maybe with a data cable..risky..) guess that's the only major problem.. *..some ^^

  • it's a good cell phone but i don't know how to connect it to computer. Who can answer my question ? and send to me an email. Thanks a lot.

  • I really love the phone.It's really cute but i don't know how to use the Infrared/GPRS part. Please, i'll lve to use that part

  • its good once you get to know how to use it...sometimes lags though..

  • hi... i hav no idea how to use infrared on my phone can u please tell me how to use it

  • very good cell phone and cute cell phone

  • I have recently got a LG L1100 and I can't figure out how to add photos to the phone book. I know theres a phonebook photo folder but I am unable to put photos in there. Please help!!!

  • hello,sie/madam how are you?my LG L1100 fall down and now i can't see anything on the screen,but i can recieve calls and sent call but i can;t see anything on the screen,so please if you can help me to change the screen i will be very happy coz i really like the LG family,so please try and tell me some thing about it.. thank you . hope to hear from you soon!! musa

  • I got this phone for about a month now, I was very satisfied about it, until now I have a problem with the internal screen, it's backlight doesnt work all the time. When I flip it open, it sometime takes about 20 seconds before the backlight goes on...

  • I like it, but now I need help if still possible. I bought it April 2005, everything worked fine. Yesterday after having recharged the battery, so nothing special, I switched my LG1100 on, all my pictures, phone numbers, calendar inserts, etc. were simply gone. None of my settings are in anymore, no internet connections, nothing anymore. I'm disappointed especially because I had beautiful pictures taken during my holidays and they are all gone, I had not the time yet to safe them on my PC. Thanks in advance for any advice.

  • so far so good, except i want to know can you download your pictures to your computer! if it is possible, can someone please explain, i dont know waht i am doing.

  • Got this phone from my son, he got as freebee from AT&T, but he ended up dropping the service but got to keep the phone. He gave it to me but I have Cell One. Is there any way to get phone software converted from ATT to Cell ONE??

  • wen i try and load up the animations page, it takes ages and so i give up. also im tryin to find websites that have "FREE!" aniamtions but they cost me all money. can u help me please?

  • I have this phone and it says it can have photo call but when i try to change the picture it says: 'photo phonebook not available'. Can anyone help me? please reply soon.

  • L1100 is ok,but i do feel theres a lot of features missing.For instance, the 1Mb shared memory is way too little and you can never store much in the phone because it will always say that there is no space so the only thing left to dois delete some things you've already stored inorder to store the new! Also, the phonebook photo feature was such a problem at first because i had no idea how to make an id photo..i had to compare another friends LG phone,different model,to find out! The manual is just not efficient.Another thing is that i still cannot install the "infra red modem",and so it's called in the manual, inorder for my IrD feature to work..therefore i cannot send or receive anything via infra red even if there is such a feature in the phone.The data cable for the L1100 poses another big problem...i have a laptop and no pc and the cable cannot fit the LT,which means i have to look for parts to connect to the LT.However, its imposible for me to find some parts like that because nowdays,well at least in the country that i live in,USB is in and serial is out..if someone knows how to activate the IrD feature pliz tell me!!

  • Worst phone ever! I purchased through AT&T Wireless in June of '04. Problem is, calls go through about half the time...the other half go straight to voice mail- very frustrating. Now with Cingular, and even with "five bars" showing a strong signal, still goes to voice mail. Found others who own the same phone and they had similar problem.

  • Hey guys i just got my phone and i have been very careful with it but it has lost a line of pixels (ABOUT 50MM) across the whole screen on the front of the phone, what can i do?

  • I have had my LG L1100 for about 3 months now and I am very happy with it, I can't fault it. The only thing was I didn't know how to get photos into the phonebook to put the pictures next to peoples names, after reading some of the comments I found out how to do it. Thank you.

  • Well, I got this phone from www.computergeeks.com for $189 plus $15 shipping i was very pleased by the customer service. I awaited its arrival with great eagerness because i purchased it to use it in Costa Rica. It finally arrived and i have two complaints. First the battery life is amazingly short, it's actually ridiculous and second when you dial a number all the colors of the rainbow appear as you punch the numbers and it makes it look incredibly gay. I have tried to get rid of the colors with no luck yet. If anybody knows how to change it i would highly appreciate it. Other than that i think it's a great phone. Hope this helps anybody...

  • iv'e had my LG L1100 for a few months now and it's a pretty good phone...iv'e had to have the screen replaced, thanks to this site i now know how to put phone book photo's.......

  • i had this phone for 3 days and i got the white screen of death, so i sent it to lg got a new phone it happend again!!!! also very small mem space!!!!!do not get this phone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Have found the answer to getting pictures to use against names ok here goes go to the camera menu (6) , choose take picture (1), go to options, change the taking pic size(1) to 48x80 size, take your picture. The go to your names, pic edit of a particular name (2), then scroll to the end where you have the pic icon, scroll left or right and there is your picture. Hope this helps.

  • Hi just got my phone yesterday and it is fantastic - had similar problems with NO TRAINED VOICE but you need to go to Menu, Settings, Call Settings, Voice Dial and ensure it is on Manual not Automatic. Hope that helps - also got the whole CD working on my PC last night and managed to download great games, ringtones, pictures etc from the CD (all compliements of LG) as well as managing all my contact details as well as scheduler etc etc - luving this phone....

  • I got LG L1100 mobile yesterday. I like it. But please help me I have a great problem. Whenever I opened the flip of my mobile it always give the message that NO TRAINED VOICE. I am quite disturbed, even because of this I am having the problem to see the missed calls as opened and this message alwasy come. I will be obliged if U could help me.

  • I LOVE the LG L1100. Every thing works great. I've had so many comments on how great it is. Remember every fone has it faults... but i've yet to find any with this fone! Seriously, don't listen to everything her though (only the good) reviews. Memory is great and battery life is fine. Luv Sammy

  • I have had this phone for a week, everything works well. I loved the design of the phone and bought it on impulse. It is a solid phone only the battery does not last long, but thats a small price to pay for such a great phone. To answer a few questions wall papers and ringtones that work for nokia phones work on this phone. Gool luck!

  • This phone is easy to use and fits well in the palm of your hand. The screen quality is better than the nokia 3660 I had and it is way smaller. The phone works well and the only gripe I have about it is that the battery life is quite poor if you are a heavy talker( Which I am). Another plus point for this phone is that you dont have to open the phone fully to read the sms you have received. It has all the features you need combined into one easy package.

  • Phone looks great, and its a good weight.....but can only hold like 12 or 13 pics max, all the ringtones suck and you cant make voice recordings ringtones either, only 1 game and its ok, my camera recently broke (atleast i dont know how to fix it), now it only sees sh!t in purple,red,pink and orange and green sometimes.....no more pictures in other words.... overall the phone gets worse the more you use it.... i get missed calls that are days old, voice messages but no missed calls, text messages that are days and once a couple months old and the antenna is starting to come off i'd go for something else

  • i had it last month...it is great but few memory!! i bought it for $189 at geeks.com

  • The alarm doesn't override the silent mode! Thats not very good is it?! I like to set my phone on silent overnight and use it as a clock - therefore I need the alarm to wake me up in the morning. :-{

  • I bought the phone this morning as I felt like spoiling myself. I find it basic to use, I have had serval cell phones, so here goes. The screen and camera quality is better than the 3660 and 6610 Nokia's The receiver is clear and the quality of the ringtones are clear as well. This phone also plays nokia realtones as well. Overall I'd give this phone a rating of 10/10. If you are thinking of buying a phone then buy this model- its small, stylish, easy to use and has a whole host of features. Good luck!

  • I have a question: Please urgently help me: My L1100 does not ring any more, it is completely mute, even if I put it on ring!! I might have done something with the data cabe and set up! I am terribly disturbed by this. Kindly help me my friends and countrymen!

  • My phone came in a box with a computer disk - PC Sync, Contents Base, Internet Kit. You install it to your pc and connect fone to pc with the supplied cable, click here and there, and wahlah! photos go from phone to computer. I have since learnt how to extract it and save it a a pc folder. I havent figured out the phone/internet stuff. That is low priority for me. Good Luck.

  • I own this phone, and I love it. I also have Cingular and I never have a problem with the missed calls, the only thing wrong with my phone is the attenna broke, but i just got it replaced.

  • How do you get the pictures from the phone to the PC???? PLEASE enlighten me

  • Thanks to this page I can now save photos in my address book. Thanks Rubyn! But can someone please tell me how to send a photo in my phone to my computer?

  • i have problems, i can't hear when the person is talking in the other line and cell freezes alot =)

  • This are the best cel thad i see.

  • i've had this phone since 8/04...actually not this exact one...i've had 2...the first didn't work and they said it was a "gliched" phone so i got a new one and my money back. this one has been okay...but i had a problem with the missed calls but i called Cingular and gave them a piece of my mind and they did something and now its great! so just call you account people and see if they can help you-they helped me! as far as you people with broken screens and antennas and all that...what the crap are ya'll doing to your phone? nothing has broke off mine!

  • i dont have any problems with the phone as of yet however. does anyone know how to save pictures in the phonebook next to a name?

  • Could someone help with this problem. My LG1100's screen doesn't activate when I open it even though the sound works fine. It is my son's phone and I am unsure if it is a setting or hardware problem. He says that if he opens and closes it it will eventually come on. ???? Thanks.

  • I have this phone and it is sooo awesome. Even after reading the comments on this board, i still got it coz i luv it so much. Don't listen to everything here coz every phone has it's bad points.But there's nothing wrong with this one. I have no trouble with missed calls

  • I bought this phone without reading the reviews first and then got a little nervous after reading about all of the problems and and missed calls, Well I am glad i bought it, So far i have not had one missed call and i get about 80 calls a day, when i receved my phone i called it 20 times and all calls went through. I am in the united states and have cingular service. Mabee the missed calls have to do with your service providers or the area you are in, because mine works great.

  • its a nice fone but has too many errors. i liked the photo quality and other features but then all of my photos, messages,numbers and downloads disapeared.then the screen stopped working.

  • I love this phone...it screams style, sleek, and rich. I love it! I want it for myself...I recently lost my phone so i'm dying to get this one!!!

  • I love the phone but the missed calls are expremely inconvient. Many friends and family say it goes right to voice mail... no reason why.

  • Well, frankly this phone just stinks. Half my calls I dont recieve and if i do they go to my voicemail, its inconvienent and a waste of money

  • i was thinkin of buying this phone because i want a flip phone,now after all the comments i have read i think i will stick 2 the nokia

  • "Beauty is but skin deep". This is all I can say abour LG L1100 phone. I bought this phone and withing one month during charging a message came 'please insert battery'. Of course the battery was already there. When I took it for repairs, its display went out, and its sound also. Now I am using the phone only for GPRS internet. I am disappointed in capital letters.

  • does anybody have a estimate on how much it would cost to get the front screen on the phone. mine is blurred.

  • I think the phone is great! I only have one thing that bugs me, and that's when I replay an SMS, the receiver gets a "RE:" in front of the message, which i find very annoying.. but maybe there's a way to remove that object in front of the message?

  • just bought the LGL1100, after having nokias all this time this one is a little different in using.Also bas i have not had it long maybe someone can help.First when i get a sms message the phone seems to only beep once...most times i dont even realise i got a message.Anyway of changing this.Also what format does the phone use for downloading ringtones.If i download ringtones on to my computer first ..how do you install into phone. please someone help!

  • I have had the LG L1100 for almost eight months now and I can't wait to trade it in. After three months the antenna came off and could not be put back in. Also, not long after this happened half of the outside view screen disappeared and I was unable to read the time and or who was calling me. I am very disappointed with this phone and would like to warn those of you who are planning on purchasing it. Unless you are not bothered by defected phones do not buy the LG L1100.

  • Excellent phone but i cant work out how to put photos into the phonebook, Can someone help?

  • Can someone please tell me how to save photos to the phonebook, so when someone calls their pic comes up?

  • I'm happy with the phone other than the battery life. i have to charge it twice a week (more if i talk lots or play games). I got it mainly because i wanted a flip phone and also because it connects to my PC. The camera is average but i have a digital camera so i wasn't interested in that feature. Not as simple to use as a nokia but it didn't take too long to get used to it.

  • had 2 of these in the past 4 months loads of software probs, can't wait to trade in

  • this phone iz awesome!!! the design is so funky and cool and its just mad as!!!!!

  • hi i was wondering how much the lg L1100 was

  • chicks phone, no handsfree, im so ashamed, i think ill trade in

  • lg l1100 is a cool phone. had a bad download to it. called lg and they reset it within minutes. great phone.

  • Where can i get the LG L1100 phone i have looked everywhere and i cant find it anywhere plz help. thanks, Chris

  • We were satisfied with the phone until we had an issue.. LG had a manufactuer defect with the phone & their only resolution was to send a refurbished phone. The customer service is deplorable at LG-- we would never buy another LG phone again!

  • is this crap?

  • a very nice phone with great options and very user friendly.I'm wrapped

  • the phone is more and far more better then other phone due the it size and compatibilities

  • How come i cant use it in Australia?? With the Australian Network company??

  • looks like a good phone think im gonna get one :D

  • hello, is this fone worth it, i am upgrading from a 2100 nokia, wot should i buy, i like the u1820 i think it is but there are really bad reviews about it

  • This fone is definatly in my league

  • LG made this phone designed for female users only. Good pictures, bad battery, good ringtones, very bad memory. This is a turn off.

  • The lg 1100 has a great design , average features and average camera. It doesn't have a flash. The pictures taken were good quality but at night, the camera was no good. The talk time for this phone is really bad. The talk time is not long. The battery only lasts abit over 2.5 hours of talking and it needed recharging This can be fixed but buying another battery. If you intend to take photos with this phone. You can only store 8 in high quality. There is only 1 mb of memory (shared with phone book, games, messages, and applications). This is very little. If you want a camera phone which is better than this one, has more memory and talk time, and cheaper, consider the Panasonic X 70.

  • how do i use the ring tones i cant find them on the lg l 1100

  • Hey! Does anyone Know how to use the infrared port? I'v try'd sending and receiving files but it won't work... it wont even link with my laptop...Help! Please! Thanx
