  • How to screenshot my lg e405 and my sd card is 4gb i dowload apps but my cellphone said storage not enough. How can i do?

  • my first android and its still as i bought it love it

  • Using this phone since 1980. No problem till now :)

  • good fone

  • i am using it from last 2 years ... its awesome in all aspect. the only think i dont lik is its low memory ..which make u limited use only certain apps .. can not keep apps with high memory .

  • My LG E- 405 automatically updates itself. And many times I loose valuable information. how can I stop it from automatic updates? It makes the phone become very slow and at times I get applications that I don't want or like

  • mine is automatically reset.. after i remove my sim card and battery... all may contact is lost...

  • my phone automatically formatted, erased everything

  • Perfect phone, never a problem after 2 yrs and no intention of changing either. Would recommend it to anyone, perfect pocket size, not bulky or heavy like 'that' brand.

  • Focus on mine is perfect, even after 2yrs....maybe your's has a fault?

  • This is the best phone ever! I bought it 2012 and still well function. i love the LG products, they are of high quality and goes at agood price. Pocket friendly.

  • camera is not auto focus

  • Low system memory, smaller screensize, unrooted low android version (2.3.6) but it is strong Mickenzie_artlover

  • this is one of the worst cellphone in the world I had one of them for two years the volume button have problem the lcd is low quality the camera is awfull

  • Hangs when browsing .. speed is very low Sims often gets disabled then manually have to remove and put the sim ( soft reset does not help many times)

  • batry backup good...

  • Worst Phone..I have been using for 2yrs. I had very very worst experience with this phone.You will get lot of features like Automatically shut down,auto formatting,unresponsiveness,very slow. Plz don't waste the money..

  • very good device for his money.Also i want to say that it has been washed with clothes in laundry,and still works,after i dry it i can see that nothing damaged,very good batery life

  • I have bn using this fone for over 2yrs. Its smaller and portable,hard to break even if you fell it hundred times. The down side is it has low storage capacity so unsuitable for internet users. Would not recommend it for internet fanatics.

  • except for Whatsapp and Hike messengers there are options in the apps itself to set the storage as default for the sd card, but for whatsapp and hike, the user has to plead to the app making company to please give him/her the option in its app only.. In LG phones user interface one can not set the sdcard as a default memory for once and all, unlike the stock android. don't know why... It's made me sick thinking it over and over on this issue. Why these so called big engineers just don't address simple things even.

  • I had purchased this phone on may 2013 @ 6.5k . It was the biggest blunder in my life. Roughly say this is baddest phone in this prize range.

  • Ristart proces in this mob

  • Crap phone- like the other LG phone LG replaced with this one! I won't ever buy LG again! Terrible customer service! Terrible phones! This one echoes for the receiver, randomly restarts all the time - even whilst on a call, sometimes also factory resets losing all data and apps, most apps don't even work, sim switches often without your wanting it to, generally only works on 2G, can't set it to 3G only as you can with others, comes preloaded with tonnes of unremovable crap, no memory for skype or what's app, makes a good skipping rock!

  • This phone is bad... but im using it right now..... it is slow... low internal memory and system memory I can just download 2~3 apps... it has no front cam too...its so boring... do u guys know how to fux this problem?? And the only one that i like in this phone is....even when you throw it like a million times..it works....

  • Internal memory is too low. No chance of upgradation, camera also poor quality, processor also of old version . Repeatedly hanging , we r fed up with this handset. Its better to stop production of such type of poor quality handset.no resale value i

  • Internal memory is too low. No chance of upgradation, camera also poor quality, processor also of old version . Repeatedly hanging , we r fed up with this handset.

  • lg e405 bad phone.

  • I've been using this phone now for like, 1 year (heck, im using it right now). The memory is so low that you can only install like 5 apps or something and the wifi is sometimes... like... really really slow. I also tried to install the facebook app but it completely... like... ate my phone or something. I actually tend to get clumsy sometimes so theres this big scratch on it. My play store also wont work, like it just says that it crashed or something. So I just installed mobogenie. Thank god for it... its really a life saver. And (this just happened earlier this morning) I kind of accidentally tripped on my carpet and it fell (its okay though, that's one thing I like about this phone... like even if it fell one hundred times it still work) and the seakers won't work. I tried to listen to music but it won't work. Like... not even a pin dropping. This is the first time that it happened and I'm like, really panicking right now. I tried to restart it and like shake it or sometging but it won't :(. Do you guys have any ideas how to fix it? it would be a big help.

  • I am using this mobile for the past one year. Recently, it has occurred 3/4 times, i.e., when it is turned on in the morning, it would not pick up any network signal. After re-starting, it goes into factory reset mode and have to setup all over again. This causes losses of all data. I don't understand what is causing such malfunction. Appreciate your feedback on correcting this problem. Thanks.

  • this is your screen gard issue. the same hedset i was using and i m also fcaing the same problem.but after removing the screen gard from my hetset it works gud.

  • That's because of the proximity sensor that when on a call, if you put the phone near skin or ear, the display turns off to avoid end callls or accident touches on screen. Use earphones when on a call so that the display won't turn off

  • You mean when you're taking photos, the photos are saved on internal memory instead of external memory card? If yes, change the storage setting of the camera. If the files came from bluetooth, its default location is in internal memory. Just manually move it to ExternalSD using Polaris Viewer

  • always cannot be rich when my caller try to call me, eventhough have a signal

  • may i update jelly bean 4.1

  • You mean the system memory is short/low that limits you to download apps anymore. Move apps to internal memory is the easiest thing to do. Making partitions is an advanced procedure. Anyway, you said your phone slows down right? Yeah, you're right. Our phone is laggish because it can't handle many applications at the same time because of small RAM (not system memory). As you can see in the Running Services under Settings>Applications, if you see the free RAM is 50MB and below, you will suffer moderate to extreme lag. So to remove/reduce lagging, you must ROOT your phone. Look for a group in facebook LG Optimus L3 E405. Ask for request for you to be accepted by the admin then ask questions there. I'm also a member there that can answer you. Can't provide you detail by detail here. It takes time.

  • ram is short can't move certain apps to sd / internal mmry ...hang prblm..net not fast even on 3g..can't download much apps...process is slow.... plz help

  • There's no such option to erase RAM. What do you mean? Please be specific.

  • How to erase RAM as it makrs lt trouble..n the option erase RAM...does nt work...plz do favour.

  • root your phone and you can unleash its full potential. anyway, why can't messages? maybe because your system storage/memory is about to full (low on space notification). if yes, you can't send messages or if you reach the android's sms limit of 100sms per hour (parts counted). next is you can't move apps to internal memory? if you're not rooted or rooted already, you can enable that move to move to internal memory by downloading the Android SDK Tool on your computer. Just google it. All you need is a fast internet connection coz it sizes almost 500mb. after downloading, extract the file then look for the folder platform-tools (I know it is under SDK folder). open that folder and right click on white spaces while holding the Shift key. select open command prompt here. connect your phone to your computer and select PC Software, then enable UDB Debugging by going to Settings>Applications>Development then check Enable USB Debugging. After that, go back to the command prompt you've opened. Type 'adb devices' (without quotes) Your device must be listed there. Type 'adb shell pm setInstallLocation 2' (without quotes). That's it. the move to internal memory button will be enabled. For more info and questions, you can search for the group of L3 E405 on facebook and the members will try to answer your questions. Just search LG Optimus L3 E405. be sure you choose the page and request to add.

  • why this phone is not workin with chrome beta

  • i bought this phone for a couple of weeks now. is there any way to upgrade this unit? i can't download more applications. it always declare phone memory full though it still have space and i cant even send messages. not all applications can move to internal memory. how can i save applications to my external memory. thanks! hope to hear feedback soon..

  • in this phone have a problem of the downloading the data all data transferred to systemn memory

  • Very slow mobile and hanging problem not updating total bakwas

  • gud phn in this budget satsfied with it...... onlyprblm is can't updt operating system.....can't run heavy games....

  • Guys avoid this phone, my sister and i have it, its slow, on start up it has no signal for about an hour or more it gets stuck all the time I am so pissed with this phone.

  • Can it be used abroad? like Japan, Canada, and US?

  • when you will give update option

  • Maybe you reach the limit of 100sms/hour of android system, or maybe your phone is low on memory (you will see a warning notification in your status bar if you got low on memory).

  • If you're rooted, then you can move apps to internal memory. Simply install titanium backup pro or gemini app manager and move apps to sdcard/internal memory. So far, I don't know how to move apps to externalSD. But if you're not rooted, you can still move apps to internal memory by enabling the disabled "move to internal memory" button by googling "how to move apps to sd card using sdk tool". just look for howtogeek on search results.

  • I ve bin using dis phone for almst a year, is ok and gud, the only problem u wil ve is wen u download 2 much app dat cant b move to internal memory. D map is k, browsin is k, ba3 is k, evri tin is k except d low phone memory 4 those dat load dia phone wit much app

  • D only problem wit it is low memory

  • y cant i send messages? eventhough my inbox is empty

  • ok, problem solved, the sensor at the top right of the phone was being covered by the jellycase. to the users of this phone, it is actualy good, the battery is also good, it's just that it is not on the list of supported devices of google play so can't create an account fos this phone and you cannot really download android apps. unless u take risk downloading from unknown sources.

  • yes u r right some people post withoutr using it i m also using this phone from 7-8 months i dont have any problem in it except ram and internal memory

  • This phone is stylish in design,if ur contacts are in phone memory sim changing will not irritates u. Camara is poor,and touch screen is good. i think it is the best among this price scale

  • its an waste n worst phne we cant move applications to internal memory and less storge of memory and it is very slow while using internet on this phne so pls people dnt buy this phne anyone waste of money

  • can not update os

  • a good phne except for npoot battery per prrformance

  • poor battery perfomance

  • yes. this phone has notification/message alert tone. All phone has it. In regards to yorlur messages, do you mean you don't want to display the message content in the status bar/notifications bar? Because this phone's stock messaging app doesn't have pop-up display when you receive a text, instead, you can read the content in the notifications bar. You can disable that feature by going to message settings.

  • Must this phone display messages on the screen for it to give you an option to use a tone or vibration for message alerts? Is there a way I can have a message alert tone or vibration activated without the message being displayed on the screen?

  • Music is awsome bt hangs alot not nuff memory

  • So far, LG doesn't release any update yet if you're using the latest firmware version of the phone. Now, if you're suffering to low phone storage, move most of your apps to internal memory. If you're not rooted, there's an alternative solution for this using Android SDK Tool. Just click this link for the procedure: *Note, in the case of our phone, there's no move to USB Storage, instead, move to internal memory. It will be enabled if its disabled if you do the procedure on the posted link. If you have low phone storage, you can't send text messages so it is important to not make the system storage full. Move most of your applications to internal memory except launchers, widgets, or any other application that you want to use even when your phone is mounted to computer. In addition, if you suffer poor phone performance, you gotta root your phone.

  • Does not correctly support th Pop Phone.

  • Root your phone, then install Titanium Backup Pro, then move your applications to sdcard/internal memory. Please move all media to ExternalSD, leave the internal memory for applications. You may clean the dalvik-cache using the same application.

  • No ICS update are available for E405 and I don't think it will have an ICS Update because of L3 II Dual that comes with JB OS. You may root your phone to unleash its full potential. Also there is a RemixedICS for this phone. You may search for it. or look for a group in facebook "LG Optimus L3 E405" and ask to join the group then ask questions there.

  • Can I upgrade the os to android version 4.0

  • What's with syncing? Do you use LG PC Suite to sync media files to your phone? Why not copy your files to your SD Card / Internal memory by connecting your phone to computer by selecting "USB Storage" in your phone when a prompt has been displayed, or if your phone does not display a prompt, go to Settings> Connectivity> Default connection mode, then choose USB Storage.

  • Phone is very handy but the quality of camara is not so good. While calling mostly the other end people are telling the voice is not clear, why it is like this?

  • how to root my phone

  • gud afternoon friend

  • There are many possibilities why you can't send messages. First, kindly check if you have balance in your load. Second, check if you have signal. Third, make sure you select the SIM Card to send your message (highlited SIM will be the one to send message). Fourth, maybe you have low system memory (you will see a notification if your system memory/phone storage is low). Lastly, maybe you have sent 100 messages in an hour.

  • You can unroot it using the application that you've used to root your phone. Be sure to bring back all to normal (for example, you converted a user app to system app or vice versa). OR You may use the KDZ Updater and download the firmware version of your phone.

  • Gud afternun, i can't send messages. What shall i do?

  • I have rooted my lg l3 e405 using superoneclick..and i want to unroot it now please give me instructions of how to unroot it....

  • Don't know who's admin here. For me, I only use Android SDK Tools to debug my LG E405 (to be specific, to enable the disabled button "move to internal memory" in the settings>applications>manage apps section). There's a group in Facebook where you can ask question regarding your phone. Just search LG Optimus L3 E405 then join. I know in that group (as I'm reading posts), they use Link2SD to partition the ExternalSD and took some portion of it and added to system memory.

  • I want to ask admin..sir!!can u be more specific on what do you mean to say android sdk platform tool.As am very upset about the internal memory and system memory of my phone.I am using App2Sd but unable to move apps forcefully from phone or internal memory to external/sd card memory...thanks

  • the phone is great,supper fast with multiple apps bt the internal memmory thing is irritating and it doesnt have an internal camera.LG work on tht.btw i am using the phne to write this comment

  • the dual sim is not good enough... the other sim slot loses it signal and only workings with single sim...

  • So far, LG doesn't release an update for this phone (ICS OR JB), maybe because of their newly released version II of the L-series that comes up with a 4.1.2 andoid version (Jelly Bean).

  • You know theres an lg optimus l3 e405f with same spec but the camera is 3.2mp with stylus pen and can play divx format. I jus saw it in youtube while i'm searching.

  • To the low bass on earphones.used quality earphones and download music volume eq at google play then set the bass to max! Lets see if you have more problems.SOME PEOPLE COMMENTS HERE WITHOUT EXPLORING THEIR PHONES! i've been using this phone for 1year now and my only problem is the system memory,ram,camera(on night),and last open of messages takes a 20seconds. I use this phone to write this comment. :D

  • I will correct you.the ram is not 384mb its 302mb.!check it!

  • Hard reset.NOTE:this will erase all data in your phone memory.Turn off your phone and press down volume together with power on/off button.

  • i've been using this phone last august but the switcihing of SIMs irritates me more than the low ram. i've been wondering why the read messages becomes unread when i refresh my phone and this message becomes two or three

  • Awesome phone, much better than i imagined it would be. Loads of apps available. Very fast and smooth response from interface, lots of features which makes it look and feel like a premium phone. The Voice command integration is the best I have seen. Well Done LG!!!

  • How strange? Try restarting your phone and open the messages again? I haven't experienced it before as I'm using the default messaging app of this phone.

  • i bought this phone 1 day ago my gallery is working gud but the messages takes 1 minute to open is that normal??

  • i owned this phone for a few days as of now the only problem with this is that when im opening my messages it takes 1 minute to open which is not normal because i purchase it only 2 days ago

  • use your google account to open your phone

  • Hi, Yes u can njoy wit the phone as it has a 384mb ram, easy swap to dual sim and having a battery of 1500 mah which is a demand of android as it stay for whole day after listinning music and surfing... Regarding games n all its a decent phone with ginger bread 2.3.6... go for it

  • i owned htc one x sold it then bought lg l3 405 because i'm going to buy samsung galaxy s4 when it comes out this is my very first lg phone i own to tell you truth this is better then my hox that i use to own the touch response of this phone was better the battery was better i can last 15 hours on maximum use tested my self bad things are poor camera sound to low sometimes it reset by self maybe cause i'm on tethering 24/7 my plan is unlimited for $40 dollars includes internet and downloads calls mms msg over roll i'll give it 8/10 hox 6/10

  • The easiest thing to do is to perform a hard reset (by doing this, you will restore the factory settings of the phone, deleting the apps you installed, also the sms and contacts will also be erased, be sure to back it all up first), or if you connected on a wireless network, connect your phone to your google account then follow the procedures.

  • This phone is ok. The camera is below sub-par but it works. All text looks highly pixelated at 125ppi but gets the job done. Display is nice and bright but viewing angles are very poor. The processor is sub-par but can easily run games like angry birds . Battery lasts a long time

  • The android phone with all its meanings . ________________________________________ i own iphone 4 , Galaxy S advance , Nokia N8 and Galaxy young s5360 . i will brief it : No need for expensive "phones" like Iphone4 if you can afford > go for a tablet like iPad . but seeking a "phone" it's the android that will fill all your needs. talking about Lg L3 E405 dual SIM , it has all the android phones can do and with a very good affordable price (just about 130$ ) *Cpu .the A5cortex gives a great performance like the new A7 chips . *Ram is fair for normal users ( if you are a game addict buy Galaxy SII or higher - but believe me a Tablet like iPad is better all the way ) however games like fifa12,Pes12,MC4 and Gta3 will work nicely. *Memory after rooting is up to 3Gb instead stock 380mb *it's not a pro Cam phone but it still capture well focused images, thanks to AF feature, i save about 150$ when i decide to buy it instead of Galaxy S advance dual so i will go for a CyberShot ;) *Dual SIM is useful but during calls the other SIM will not receive ( a bad hardware defect really )it's a dual Standby only. * i picked the white one which is more stylish than the black (for me ) all other colors are also good. ** finally it's a worth having Android phone with long battery life, bigger screen . (positive things compared to any in this price): battery,Bigger screen,good cam,stereo sound,good contrast,materials are good,multi touch,connect to any Wi-Fi TV or DLNA enabled T.vs is a very good feature for sharing photos and videos on T.V. - (poor feedback was in): Dual standby only,screen colors 256k,no flash, no front cam, long charging time to full "up to 2 and half hours " now i will go for iPad >

  • hi anybody with a feedback pls.am desparate

  • my son changed my unlock pattern of my phone and now am unable to access it cos he has forgoten the new pattern.what do i do to unlock it?

  • Hi Friends, I m using this cellphone since last 1 mnth and trust me guys its a decent cell phone with the need i wanted, B4 taking any kinda mobile try and understand your need, As i need a cellphone to surf on net hearing music social and whatsapp.... it has a 1500 MAH battery which last long for day and a half.. ram is ok but trust me no hanging.... prob works like butter... i got it for 7200 INR rupees and its worth while.... i got a accessories containing Back cover, 1GB Airtel subscription FREE.... over all i m satisfied....!!!!!!

  • How strange it happens? Have you checked the storage for camera/video? I've been using it for 5 months and I don't experienced it yet.

  • You must root your phone first, then install Titanium Backup then convert Google+ or any other app you want to convert to user app then move that moved app to sd card. Take note that rooting your phone will void your warranty. You can unroot anytime you want, don't worry. For rooting procedures, kindly click the link below, also like the page. There's also a group in facebook where you can ask questions,just search LG Optimus L3 E405:

  • can open the camera or the radio and no video it cant even read the memory card may u please help cause i have just bought the phone 26 march 2013

  • How ccan we move installed apps like google+ n maps etc to sddcard..??

  • Move apps in the internal memory to free up phone memory space.

  • Try download Gemini App Manager then kill all processes. Also take down widgets mostly the auto updated widget. It slows down phone. And also stop unnecessary services

  • i buy this cell before 3months ..now a days gallery opening very slow more than it takes 10mints i dont know y?give solution for this prb...

  • gud ..but gallery opening slowly

  • how do I increase the memory of this phone? I can't send messages due phone storage getting low

  • true interne is very slow not worth

  • I've been using this phone for the past 6 months now and this is want i got. +Ve - Looks are stylish, screen clearity is nice. - Battery support is good (heavy use but without wi-fi can continue for whole day. -Ve - 3.2 Camera is just below average, no flash makes it useless at night or low light. - RAM is low which makes it hard to install more softwares and games. - Earphones provided are just below average, sound quality is ok but distorts at high volume with poor bass support. - Some common features are missing when compared to other phones in this range.

  • So far, LG doesn't release an update for this phone yet, neither ICS nor JB update were not available. And I don't know if LG will update this phone because they have released the version 2 of this phone (Optimus L3 II) that comes with 4gb system memory, Android 4.1 JB, and so on. So if you plan to buy this phone, I suggest to go to Optimus L3 II.

  • The phone's camera is really 3.2MP, but it depends on light. If in low light, it will not look 3.2MP because the color is low, but if you're in a good light / outside, it will be 3.2MP. The image quality will be improved if downloaded camera apps. The one I used is the Camera360 and I'm greatly satisfied with it. Video recording is good (VGA 640x480) if in the good light, but if not, it is not. I compared the camera and video recording of this phone and of the galaxy y. Based on my view, Optimus L3 E405 is better than galaxy y's camera. In taking videos, Optimus L3 E405 is has better quality than galaxy y.

  • Is possible this phone can be upgraded to new android verion if yes then plz let me know

  • What kind of problem in the network?

  • i have this mobile but ony pblm is network trouble plz help me ..... what can i do now

  • By default, some applications can't be moved in the internal memory (I thought other phones also have the same problem). But you can make the disabled "move to internal memory" enabled by using SDK Tools. Just google it and download. Here's the tutorial: NOTE: Some apps must not be moved in your internal memory like the widgets and launchers to maintain its functionality. Other than that are safe to move.

  • I hav this phone , it is very problem ,all the storage goes to the system memory and that is why there is no use of internal memory 1GB

  • ... Usually I am very careful in choosing a cell phone, so, just one week after purchase, I can say that the price-earnings ratio has been very good, the device meets all my expectations. Perfect ... everything. I get calls from both SIM simultaneously, and only choose the sim you wish to call. No need to ... take me 2 phones, this gadget fulfills its task very well, .. if you are thinking, on being informed, stay informed, and to your favorite applications without thinking when your battery is going to end .. . then this is the phone you should have .... Beautiful ... Not a high-end phone is a beautiful phone, in every way ...

  • Can anyone help me activate my GPRS/MMS in this unit? Any help guys is appreciated? Thanks.

  • dont bye this phone waste of money it will work slowly

  • I wonder why you have problem with your wifi. For 5 months I've been using this phone, I have no problem with my wifi, only when switching it on that it may take some time to be switched on and while switching it on, I suffer from extreme lag (maybe because my phone is overused). Sometimes I am connected, but no connection, but this doesn't mean our phone is defective. Maybe because the connection is too slow or the host's internet connection was disconnected.

  • I have problem with my wi-fi. i can't get access to it while another Lg T375 has access to it. what can i do please ...

  • Is this dual active phone? Both sims can receive calls simultaneously!

  • I want to buy this phone,I hope I will enjoy it? Advice plzzzz!

  • You mean there's an album there named "Instant upload"? If it were so, and you can't delete it, I don't know how. I haven't experienced it in my phone. When I take a picture, it will be saved to DCIM/100LGDSC (default) in the internal memory, or you can select SD Card for the storage. You may try connecting your phone to your pc (choose USB Storage), then try if you can delete that album together with those photos.

  • Its not very bad is only that too little of ram and it doesn't have light sensor+front camera,CPU overloaded every time force to close.I don't mean to complain very much is only the price compared to that of galaxy ace hmmmm...demn!

  • yes ....my friend i took a picture in my camera....in the gallery theres an an album instant upload ...no option to delete some photos...i want to delete it

  • Its dual standby, not dual active. Both will work at the same time, both will receive SMS together, but in terms of call, if you will call via SIM1, SIM2 will be disabled in order for your other friend that will call you on SIM2 not be able to call you because if it were be 2 calls answered at the same time, how could it be?

  • am surprised because he phone specification suggest that it is dual Sim but the two Sim cards cant work at the same time?

  • Just go to Settings>Dual SIM Settings then check or uncheck "Data Enabled". In that procedure also, you can set the "Default data network" either SIM1 or SIM2, OR, you can enable/disable data packet by showing your notifications (pull down the status bar) then tap the last button to be click (the up and down arrow).

  • I am unable to see data packet enable/disable option. Plz tell me how to overcome this?

  • Go to gallery the select an album, then you will see your photos. You may long press a photo or just press the "options" key in your cellphone then select photos you want to delete, then tap delete, that's it.

  • Perform a software update thru your mobile phone or by LG Mobile Support Tool. So far, LG does not provide ICS update to our phone, even though they will be releasing upgraded version of our phone (soon to release LG Optimus L3 II) that comes up with ICS OS. I don't know when they will release the ICS update for our phone. I hope they release cause we are left behind other mobile phones. There's a group in facebook where they create the RemixedICS only for LG Optimus L3 E405.

  • How do i upgrade my lg e405 from gingerbread to jellybeans or ice cream sandwich?

  • how long the battery lasts without charge?

  • It's 3.2mp depending on the scene or the environment. If you have low light, then it will not look like 3.2, but instead, you got lower than it. That was my problem at first, so I research for an application to improve camera quality. The best I've downloaded is the Camera360. I really love it as it improve my camera's quality. You may also download applications that edits photos (cropping, adjusting brightness, color, and putting effects like lomo, crossprocess, etc.)

  • I got this today and i think its absolutely amazing....Maybe even better that the samsung galaxy y

  • For me, if you're not of playing games, why don't buy this phone? Many of games are compatible with this phone, some are not (mostly HD and high data games). So maybe temple run is not suited here, but other games will. Expect quality based on price range.

  • Its not possible to play temple run or any game, its simply waste of buying this phone. Guys please dont buy this.

  • You can download Equalizer app. That's enough to make your listening better. Before I use n7player (built-in with own equalizer) but I seldom use it now because it eats my RAM (approx. 29MB of RAM it use). I use the default music player of this phone and run always the equalizer in background for better listening, also in watching movie.,

  • I don't know the cause of your problem. Maybe you're doing a hard reset upon booting your phone. Maybe you press the volume button and the power button together.

  • I don't know why it happens to you. In my case, I can access google play anytime I have internet connection. The only thing I will not be able to access it is when I decline the terms and conditions popping up upon opening google play.

  • Considering the pixel density (125) is probably the the lowest i have seen, is the screen bearable? Can i read ebooks well with this phone?

  • Not bad but the processor of this phone is 800 mhz so its vry slow phone. and it has no graphics n also very poor internal memory.

  • hey, p'ple out there, i can now browse on my e405 but i can't access the google play because the phone just won't reach to the google servers. i can't create a new google account with the google play, neigther can login to google play with my existing account. huh! this phone is really drilling me. pls help.

  • you can close the music app from the task manger go to active application then choose end it wiil close the app

  • i bought this model about a week ago. so far, i can connect to the internet via wifi or data sim without much trouble. but you have to study how to navigate. one problem which i haven't solve yet is to stop the music from playing. it only pauses. as to downloading of apps, it has limited internal memory. utmost, up to 4 apps only. one more thing, it has a weak ringer volume. it could hardly be heard if you are working in a construction site.

  • Hi, i used this LG E405 last six month. it is easily connect thorough GPRS,Wifi also don't return it, Pls Read Manual Otherwise just call LG Customer-care center, they will help u from your language

  • This is very bad phone....It's camera is 3.2 mp but actually this is 0.32.tIt's phone memory is very low.It is dual stand by phone .Totally it is very very bad phone

  • Why can't connect? What do you use upon connecting on the internet? Wifi or mobile data connection?

  • i can't connect my newly bought LG E405 to the internet. any help out there or it's usual of the phone and i should quickly return it.

  • i can't connect my LG E405 to the internet. any help out there or i send it back?

  • As posted in this forum, you can move apps by going to settings > applications then select an app to move. Some applications cannot be moved, but you can move it forcely by using SDK tools and a command to do that. Just google "move apps to SD Vard"

  • hye man can u tell me is the lg e405 durable and can take it through a while or it just crack under pressure cause some of my friends advise me of getting the samsung galaxy pocket instead and im into the e405 more because its way better that the pocket what do u think and please give your whole experiment with the e405

  • I love this phone LG E405 but the only negative is i am not able to install the downloaded apps to internal memory. All will gets automatically installed in phone memory and now its showing low space. How can i transfer the files to internal and will i be able to disable the phone memory. Please answer me in my mail. [email protected]

  • If you don't care for dual sim and long battery life then go hwawuie (y 100) Same options but have low batt MA maybe 1150MA and bluetooth v2.1 as normal phones And only one sim, ,sam ram (apprx.) ,,,but have this touch bottom in the middle of blackberry phones

  • Yes sir, ,,, all you need to do is ....open your phone choose (market) some phones have it named (google play) And search for the word skype on the market, ,,press on the required app from the search result (skype) and press download Note: using the market or google play require gmail account so sign in or sign up ,,the market would give u the choise

  • dear sir can i use in this lg MODEL the "skype"??? just for chat etc ??? HOW CAN I INSATLL THAT ?? CAN U PLS SEND ME THE LINK ETC ??? awaitng your confirmation with tahks J R

  • I bought LG 405 6 months ago. But now While switching between sim, some of the setting are changing automatically. Any one know some solution?

  • This is a good phone or it is much better than samsung galaxy y and y duas... It supports almost all apps and it has an internal memory of 1GB which is pretty awesome..... The gaming is not so good and some games like raging thunder 2 stops while playing...... The camera is not so good...... In other words it's a nice and cute looking phone.....

  • you can use Settings-Applications-Manage Applications then Select any application then press (Move to internal memory. Best Wishes, Amr Adel

  • when you call or download something from one sim then the other sim will be at unavailable mode.look I'm. using this phone,and its really superb.bt in. India the xperia tipo(dual sim) cost only rs- 1500 more than the l3 e405.I also use that phone,and my opinion is that with 512mb ram and ics it is super smooth than e405.like.temple run.this game is bit laggy in my phone (l3).but very smooth in tipo.tipo's battery back up is almost same or little better.screen,output sound are better, operating system (ics),ram,system that is phone memory,internal memory are more.tipo have just one drawbacks that is the card slot,it is below the battery!that means you have to remove battery every time you remove the memory card.overall l3 is good but it is a old phone.so the new phones will give you more features in the same price.

  • As said in the specifications, the internal memory is only 1GB..

  • wer are lokeng internal memorey

  • I agree! Lots ob people are using samsung. almost everyone's palm holds samsung phone. If i have a money i'll buy LG mobile just to be separated from the majority and to be unique.

  • One thing I do buy this phone is that samsung here in our country (Philippines) is very common. Many individuals were using this phone. And I chose this Optimus L3 E405 its because of bigger screen and style as compared to galaxy pocket. :)

  • Sorry for my idiot question because i'm new with androids. But doest it run apps like 'kik messenger, whatsapp...?" to be honest i'm only looking for one phone with android because i want these apps (and gps), i want to be connected and chating with my friends dont matter where they are and i am(i'm going to travel to another country for some weeks). And reading some comments i see that the music player has not a good sound. It means the quality or low vol? As english is not my native language, sorry for any mistake and thanks for your attention :)

  • thanks man for your patience and time .. im gonna get it although my friends are talking me out of buying Lg mobile phones because as they say its not that good of a brand at my country (egypt) and i should buy the samsung galaxy pocket(a little bit expensive) as samsung is more trusted brand but im convinced by the e405 and im betting on it as i see that samsung pocket is overrated and expensive

  • The sound is not so loud (downloading equalizers or sound enhancers will make sound loud). Screen resolution is low because its size is 240x320. But graphics, well, good to me (just in price range).

  • If and only if you will not use the internal memory as the primary storage of saving your photos, music or any files. App2SD cannot move apps to SD Card, only to internal memory (maybe because it is on this phone, I don't know. I have no problem in texting, but my problem is the phone when called. Sometimes when I'm doing other things in my phone, then someone calls me, it takes time before I see the call. It rings and rings then the call will appear (maybe because of using applications before call). Listening to music, well its good. But it would be better if you would download equalizer to listen beautifully because this phone don't come with an equalizer. I haven't tested twitter, MSN, and yahoo in this phone. I have used facebook in this phone and its fine, no problem, wifi connection will be the one to determine fast and slow connections (for me). Gaming, well, its fine also. But there are some games that lags when played on this phone (e.g. fruit ninja(sometimes only), tower defense). 1GB is enough maybe if you are not high-MB game lover :)

  • thanks man for clarification the dual stand by feature and its like what i wanted and with your reply im gettin more and more persuaded by this device but i have a question about the internal memo. is it really enough for social apps like facebook messenger ,twitter, imo chat , yahoo messenger ,firefox browser and others or it take some few apps and thats it and if apps2sd works for removing apps to the sd card instead of the internal memo and what about the device sound output is it fairly loud or low and one last thing the screen resolution is it as they say very low and awkward or is it nice .. sorry for making it long for you but im lucky i found someone who experienced that device and know it well .. thanks in advance

  • you only choose the sim to make calls from and send msgs but the other one will be available as well and you can switch between them with a simple touch , as long as you are not making or receiving a call on one sim the other will be available

  • the sim thing is just normal , they simply chose to give the choice of making which sim active over making you choose every single time you made a phone call or sent a msg so for me this isn't really bad that is quite good , but as being active goes i have no complains about that because as they are yet to make cross network\sim call waiting , you can't really expect your phone to receive a call from one sim while making a call from another

  • Originally when i went to buy my phone i was going for the Alcatel o-918 but found the lg only slightly higher with a better cam if i recall , but so far no regrets what so ever , i can't speak for the alcatel cause i didn't try it , but the lg is really nice with a truly wonderful battery life and smooth experience overall actually

  • based on my experience with this phone for about a week now using my wifi and the occasional network surfing the speed is actually great

  • well i don't really think that you would find a dual sim phone that doesn't do that , because if you are making a phone call from one sim and someone calls you on the other one , what will happen then ? with the speaker phone being the same one that you use for calls (as it is with every one else these days) you will go deaf pretty soon. so until they make a cross sim call waiting this is all they will do

  • the battery is what ? it's the most likable feature of this phone , i have used this phone for games , chatting , music and phone calls and the battery kept going for a day and half before hitting the 15% , if your battery runs out quicker get another one from your supplier

  • press the volume up and down together for about 2 secs and you will have your screenshot ready to edit and save or share via msging or what ever app you have that you can share through , in my case whatsapp

  • thanks for your reply and your time i'm gonna get god's willing but one last question and bear with me please i need it mostly for calling and texting ,listening to music and for social networking facebook ,twitter , yahoo , MSN may be through one app like imo chat , checking out different websites and other activities like that and may be playing a light game now and then so i want to know if the 1 GB internal memo. going to hold up those kind of apps and if apps2sd can solve this problem

  • Yes. It has an internal memory of 1GB. The dual sim is dual stand by, not dual active. If SIM1 is active, then SIM2 is in standby mode. SIM switching will change from active to standby and vice versa. During calls, if your friend calls you on SIM1, SIM2 will not be active or unavailable so it will not receive any calls and text messages until the call has stopped. Sometimes, in my case, the other SIM became inactive, I don't know if its the phone's problem or my network because sometimes I get weak signals that leads for SIM inactivity, though sometimes when I'm browsing, there are times that one SIM is temporarily inactive but for only few seconds only then active again. Another feature that is not good in this phone is that you CAN'T move applications in the SD Card, only to phone and internal memory. This is the thread: But I'm satisfied with it as I do not play many games in my phone. Another thing is the system memory is only 157.23mb so you must move unnecessary applications that must not be installed in the phone memory to free some space. But again, I do love this phone. Now, my phone performs faster than before. I don't know why, maybe because of less resource usage.

  • thanks for the reply man and what about the dual sim issue few told me that the two sims arent active at the same time meaning u need to make one active and the other will be unavailable and this wont fix my problem about gettin two mobiles one for work and another for fun so can u tell me if the two sims are active at the same time or not .. and one other thing the problem of the internal memo. and what if its not really one GB and cant hold some few apps .. thanks in advance

  • it is the best phone go its price range.who they are saying that it doesn't have file manager they are just dumb.you just simply have to go to 'Polaris viewer>my folder'...

  • im using this phone for last 4 months.and is the best phone in its price range,yeah, camera is not so good,bt all other programmes are just superb...............

  • all four of these phons are in my cash range so i asked l3 405 users for their opinion because of mixed up reviews some say it has no file manager , internal memo. doesnt bear any apps and the two sims arent actve at the same time u only have tow sims under the hood only meaning u dont have the two sims active at the same time u only choose one to be active and the other will be unavailable and i dont know if that true so im very very confused till now and i dont konw what to get

  • whatever malfunctions them LG-E405 have...i still got for free...suwiitt!!!

  • For me, LG's quite good, though facing some problems like the camera is not as expected (using camera apps will enhance the quality of the picture). Performance, well uhhmmm, optimal. Sometimes it lags when many processes and services running like in my case (playing music w/ n7player). RAM is only 384mb so it is. The battery life, I can't say but I'm not that satisfied (maybe because my battery drained a day after buying this phone). Overall, if in voting results, I vote the DESIGN - 9.0; Features - 7.0; Performance - 5.5 I'm satisfied with what I've got and what I have (just because this phone is my cash's range when I planned to buy a new phone). LG's good, but the decision is in your hands....

  • guys please i want your help i'm confused between gettin' LG L3 405 , alcatel ot-985 ,alcatel ot-918 and samsung galaxy pocket duos and am not sure which one is the best so if u can help me i would be thankful

  • hey man can u tell me if is it really good or just like the rest say it the worst ever .. i wanna know because i'm confused between L3 405 ,alcatel ot-985 ,alcatel ot-918 and samsung galaxy pocket duos and i wanna anybody to help me

  • i have flashed my lg e405 but the graphic quality have change why

  • Why don't you move applications to internal memory? If the "move to internal memory" is disabled, you can force to enable it using the android sdk platform tool and search for the command to enable it. That's what I did to me to install more applications. But I agree with you that sometimes it hangs and/or lags if I use many applications even I stopped some services, and its annoying to restart the phone in order to run applications smoothly again.

  • my device cannot connect to the internet via wifi, when i check the settings the device is showing that it is connected to my wireless network but still no access to the internet. whats the problem?

  • my device cannot connect to internet via wifi. when i check the wireless settings it is indicating that it is connected to my wireless network but still no connectivity to internet

  • Hey you go with galaxy y duos because samsung is better than lg in my view

  • at fiirst it looks nice, but slowly we get to know that it has a very less phone storage, you can't install more than 6 applications or it will say phone storage space is less, and then you can't add contacts or edit them untill you clear some space. touch is sometimes good and most annoying sometimes, the phone hangs usually and closes some appss itself to clear RAM space. games run very slow at times even if all serviices are closed. used it for more than 6 months and this was my opnion, planning to buy a new one and sell it.

  • the picture that u used show us dual sim! why?

  • 1. Root your phone 2. Install a custom-rom

  • I am using LG E405 for the last 4 months it has good look, small and handy (119gm). Minimum RAM therefore slow to open any application. WI-fi, Bluetooth, Gprs connection problem.Inbuilt memory is very poor only 157.47MB. Android not upgradable,Camera 3.2MP is falls-it is actually 0.32MP.Phone will hang regularly.Only +ve is the price but that is loss of money.Any Samsung phone is much more...................superior at any price range.

  • this mobile camer is not good. internet working is very sloow

  • is it true...??

  • I agree with you. Sometimes it takes time to open an application, and hang for some times. Maybe there's many application running in background. Try closing unused services and processes or restart your phone.

  • Just download the PC Suite in the LG's website. That's what I do to me.

  • i love this phone, it last for more than 2 days with heavy calls & texting with mobile browsing ;-)

  • According to my point of view this mobile Lg optimus E405 is the worst one.some time it takes a minute to open a single application also and become hang for a several time too.Even we can't connect it with pc for update for the new version...Can anybody help me out by giving solution of these problem..plz send me the solution on my yahoo [email protected]..

  • really very good phone

  • really good phone i love this phone

  • ...I'm afraid this LG Optimus L3 E405 is not a better dual phone to pick..when 1 sim is active the other is offline and sometimes both are offline, my goodness LG we buy your phones because we believed in your products,why LG didn't do something for your customers...i'm always going back to service center just for the service repair what they say "upgrade" but nothing happens....

  • It's a great phone. others are airing their views on no basis or proof. i have had this phone for almost a week and it is really one of the best in its price range. totally underated and not given its full credit by people who don't know how to test phones.

  • this is very bad mobile i used this ph 2months n sold in 1.5k very bad mobile taking too long time opening msg sim switching frm sim1 to 2 taking 15sec nerver purchage if using net or calling in only 1sim work another sim goes offline

  • just. got this phone yesterday.bought it for testing apps.i think it is the best phone at this price range.didn't experience even a single problem_ which some users have reported.only thing i didn't like is the camera.if u can extend ur budget i recommend sony tipo.it is pretty nice.also some part of apps can b moved to internal memory n ui is gud.

  • U CAN USE IT AS single sim phone (network prob) ,, also you can not connect it to pc suite.

  • You can screen capture by simply doing the quick memo or you may download application that can capture your screen. To do quick memo, just press the volume buttons together, then you may draw/write on the screen, or just simply save.

  • Simply move applications to phone's internal memory, though you may not move some. There's a way to force move an application to internal memory. I have done this to me. Just search on the internet.

  • Hey can any1 plz help how can i make free space in system memory.

  • can any one explain me fully how to screen capture in lg l3 e405

  • How can i download 2go on this phone, i've gotten mine. Its sooooooo nice

  • camera quality is not upto the mark.

  • it doesnt have quick memo for me.. why?

  • is it's Android upgradable to ICS???

  • i'm thinking about buying this phone. can you tell me based on your experience how many hours of talking (on 2g) can this battery handle?

  • now i use this phone is super and good but i want to that software is new before a date expiry

  • This unit does not record FM. Though you may try to voice record the FM. I don't know its output ^_^

  • Its in you whether you want to buy it or not. For my experience (using it now), it's quite good. Just as others said, sometimes it takes time to load before the app starts, the camera (3.2mp) depends on the scene (just download camera apps for better quality), sounds' good (if have equalizer), but this LG doesn't come with equalizer so you have to download. Hard to simultaneously do tasks (e.g. playing music by a player app, then going to home and opening other applications). System memory is too low, so you must move applications into internal memory (i can't move to my memory card even I have app2sd). But I like the design, style and its simplicity.

  • What I do is the quick memo to take a screenshot. Just press the volume buttons together then you may draw/write on the screen or just simply save without drawing/writing,

  • How to screen short in L3

  • what is really true in this phone?? it gets confusing after reading all comments here. mixed comments!! awtz! i cant decide what im going to buy. i do'wanna spend money for nothing, please post comment. thanks^_^

  • The features are quite good. The camera, well quite good, depending on the scene, but I downloaded other camera app to enhance photos. One thing I noticed is that when I plug a 3.5mm audio jack from my LG Optimus L3 e405 to my home theater (audio in), the sound do not go into my home theater, also no headset notification is in the status bar. but when i connect the headset, the sound is in my headset. other phones can play into my home theater through 3.5mm audio jack. Somebody help me in this...

  • mms

  • Hi,i just want to ask if both simcards at working.thanks

  • its not a problem because the mobile is dual sim & dual stand by not dual active if you want call alert means put divert

  • hello , i have LG L3 E-405 and whene i will be called with SIM1 The SIM2 be closed !!! what's the probleme ???

  • what is the battery of LG???why is it that sometimes the phone will be formatted when it will turned off

  • The phone is worst..!! It is very difficult to hold receiving a call while speaking on automataically disconnects both the call.. The +ve is only battery back up noting else.. Sound is not bold letters are smaller (even at the larger font) My suggestion is U can buy this phone a) if u really want to gift to your enemies; or b) you have more money; or c) you immediately want to buy or replace with another phone. Choice is yours..!!

  • I am going to throw a dictionary at you.

  • It is just because Lg provides u facility for that when u calling or answering somebody the phone touches your ear part so its touch phone no other application will open while u talking with your touching part(ear) and while you calling and see the phone the phone application u will see clearly..like dial pad, speakers etc..

  • u buy smart phones when u have money with u

  • what should i do? do i buy dis phone or not? plz help

  • I´m having the same problem! The cellphone once I switch on most of the time just resets everything! Why so? I went to costumers service already and they didn´t explain anything to me, they just introduced the software again but after one week my cellphone reseted again. So, what´s the problem?

  • Use app2sd application u can move to SD card then and use

  • Yes. This is right decision. But if you want a "lans" phone try something else. I earlier used Samsung Galaxy ACE and HTC Desire A8181 and change to LG Optimus L3 E405. Galaxy is OK but does not have 2 SIM card. ACE Duos is in about 2 times more expensive. Be aware that display is only 240*320 and not true color. But it would cause longer operation, I suppose.

  • yeah

  • I m using this phone for 6 mnt n its awesome . i really satisfied wit this phone. it is both economical n efficient. It hav a good camera quality n also having a very good android features .

  • I am using this phone for last two weeks and its awesome as battery backup is good, surfing in net is easy. the only drawback is the sim switch key which is placed right next to the android keys at the bottom most of the time you actually switch sims without realizing it.

  • I am using this phone from last month,and now want to share with you all. Screen-very poor resolution and graphics. Sound-no extra speaker for music so you can't feel the real music. Memory-internal memory is only 127MB so u can imagine what u can do. Touch-its good no doubt. Signals-one SIM is working and the other one is almost dead,and while u r using net other SIM is always off,and cry imp. When and where the signals fail u can't imagine. Battery-it is almost good. Overall if u r decided to buy this phone plz change your plan without any question,anyway money is your you can spend where you want.

  • hi... i am planning to buy a smart phone that is cheap and dual..since i am working here abroad, i need two mobile sims for my roaming and one for local line and i want it to be handed as one..I'm tired of bringing two phone everyday. So many nice phone here with nice spec, apps and price as well but my most concern at all is the dual function. I owned Cherrymobile dual sim before back in the Pinas. In terms of dual sim, i had no regrets on it. Now, i want to buy another dual sim phone that this 2 sims are active.. i mean I can recve sms in 2 numbers at the same time without switching it, like my cherrymobile does. Guys, can you tell me which dual phone is best in dual sim function? what about this E405? do i need to switch some button to activate the other sim like nokia or xperia tipo ?? please, help me. im confused. thank you. i dont care with the other application of the phone.. as long as the dual sim function are good. mafee mushkillah (No problem)thank you.

  • Very difficult to open net and other application ..very slow process. poor clarity camera & display also.. difficult to switch dual sim its take few minutes, always one sim get not reachable.. overall out of 10 rating will be 4. Thanks

  • Very impressive with some of the features like sound quality, video clarity, browsing speed etc., But i disappointed when come to display settings, Yes unable to change font style, themes etc., etc.,

  • I have purchased the LG L3 E405 1 month ago and still exploring the capabilities and functions of the unit, one to consider the downfall of the battery life it lasted only for 36 hours using call and text. optimizing the use like GPRS,WIFI,Bluetooth,GPS it only lasted the most of 8 to 12 hours of use, music,videos and other apps. lasted only 20 hours. what i observe was the drop in battery comes with the package is only Li-ion 1500 mAh in which at the specs. was 1540 mAh. to enhance the unit need to get apps from google play and at smartworld from LG since it is free like the Battery Saver apps. for the music the sound effects was too flat get also application like equalizer and media management for the enhancement. but without this applications and functions the L3 E405 is very flat,one thing also the internal memory and RAM run short when need to add more applicaton, Is the LG L3 E405 applicable for upgrading ? without buying another unit. investing 7k is a big lost of money, as a consumer we want to satisfy the value of our money and for the unit purchased. But for the other applications and features it works smoothly the camera, videos, messaging,adobe and file viewing are okey. I'm comparing the unit with the unit i have which is a 6 years old SonyEricsson W810i puchased year 2006 one to consider the battery life lasted for 6 days, the quality of the sounds and videos are A+ and the GPRS. I hope LG can consider those who purchased the LG L3 E405 for upgrade. We are here to give support and feedbacks to LG. More Power to LG. thanks.

  • how abt its graphics quality????????

  • My l3 that i bought yesterday is now slow after installing 11 apps..it still has 60+ mb on system memory and 850+ on internal storage.. Im disappointed! When using wifi it is veryslow compared to my xperia mini.. Pages take long before it completely loads even google.. What should i do?

  • go for l3 E405 its far better than galaxy y

  • Hai this mobile is very. nice . I don't opeating this mobile plz tell me some instrions

  • How to improve contact storage in internal memory?

  • how about its graphics quality????? it has only 125ppi pixel density whereas 150 is average!!!!????????????

  • im using this mobile from last 3 months.. i feel it very good phone only few bad things that are camera and screen resolution camera is very very bad... battery back up is ok dual sim feature are very nice....

  • confused with mixed feedback so i need to clear u :) interested with this phone, 2 main question 1. abt dual sim card, i read if SIM1 download 3G, SIM2 cannot active? i mean people call SIM2 as not active? how abt if SIM1 standby YahooMassanger or chat? i need realible 2 sim phone :) 2 people mentioned the camera not autofocus? is that confirmed?? i hope they have autofocus :P thx in advance

  • this phone has no notification lights. unlike other android phones that show different light colors for different applications such as green light for a new message and email, red light for low battery and any user defined color for other application, this one shows nothing. u won't no wen u av a new message or email if u don't check. d response also can b annoying too.

  • how about its graphic quality????? it has only 125ppi pixel density whereas 150 is average!!!!

  • hey guys this phone is very good for me.you people compare it? if you want a phone without lag go find and buy a hexacore processor and 1terabyte ram phone and you can do all you want play assasins creed on your phone thumbs up if you agree

  • good perfmance

  • if you want to root this fone it is very easy. search for this in google: "oneclickrootcwm3.1.0.1-ec05" just plug the phone to your computer, open this program and run the .bat file. just wait for the rooting to finish. your phone will restart then so dont panic. finally you should see the superuser app there on your applications.

  • whats the best that I buy???? lg optimus l3 e405 or samsung galaxy y duos.... i need it now plz!!

  • i bought my phone two months ago but i have one problem... it has reset itself twice and lost all data, messages, photos. basically wen you switch it on its like a new phone. what could be the problem??

  • Nope . . your kidding . and lying . . maybe switch to 3g when using hotspot . and make sure your data is enabled

  • I bought this phone . . is a very fast phone but I have the idea of making the internal memory as sdcard it really sucks because I can't use apps with huge data anyone . . I've tried directory bind but it only works for Samsung phones and the micro sd naming is different from the one thee app recognises,_externalsd vs _ExternalSd as used by the phone in naming the memory card . . I use huge data,so I can't continue using this phone . but is a great phone anyway

  • I am quite disappointed in the E405. The Wifi signal drops intermittently, even if I am in the same room as the router. As a hotspot, the phone is useless. It takes forever to just load even picture elements in a webpage of my laptop when using my phone as a hotspot. I think the transceiver section is very poor. Also for improvement is the way the phone handles messages sent to either sim. The phone is not really dual-active sim in that at any given time, one sim is designated to place calls and texts. When I reply to a message sent to one sim and I designated the other one as the primary, it will send out thru that other sim. At least with the HTC Desire V, the phone gives a display choice of which sim to send the text message out of. Same goes for calls. You have to switch active sims around. With the HTC Desire V, you have a choice of which sim to place the call out of. I think the new lenovo dual sim phone also has this option.

  • If you're looking for a phone to act as a duel sim and are not using CDMA networks, this phone is great. I think the bad reviews are from people who expected a duel sim iphone5. I just need it for checking emails and reading books with the occasional net surf, and to make calls/text and not have to carry around both a work phone and a personal phone. If I want a camera, then i'll use a decent quality one and not stuff around with a phone one then have to get the images of my phone. What is the big deal with having to use an earphone for music??? You have to use one on an ipod and besides we don't really want you inflicting your taste in music on us anyway. I also suspect that the phone hanging is because of how much you've loaded on to it and how many concurrent apps are running. Try using it sensibly, as a phone and not as a high powered gaming computer. It was never meant to be a computer - it was meant to be a phone, and as a phone it does a terrific job.

  • am having a trouble in rooting..can u help in sorting this out..i tried using soc for rooting.cud'nt get the rezult.can u plz help

  • is the display such worst as people here says? i wil go with this if it is par with LG T300.

  • hello am using this phone from last 3 months no issues its a good one

  • i am enjoying this phone from 2 months. camera is of 3 mp, video is vga .update your fon to v10c and u'l not get any battery issues, install any launcher like go launcher to enhance the ui. install poweramp and buy a good headphones then sound is awesome. you can swap the 1gb sd with your external card if you are rooted and also can use app like directory bind (easier). around 301 mb ram usable 84 mb ram is used by adreno 200 gpu. rom is around 390 mb and internal memory is of around 160 mb, total 550 mb for apps installation (rom can be used only if rooted, by making apps->system apps). new hd games like gta3 amazing spiderman batman dark knight rises asphalt modern combat 3 etc can be played smoothly but if you want to play boring and pathetic game like the famous (dont know why :/) temple run then sorry you can't play without root. consider agent dash, subway surfers, better than temple run. download android sdk tools and set default location for application installation to sd card than all applications will be installed to sd (NO ROOT NEEDED). for any problems msg me on facebook. there is no probs in this phone but if you wish you can consider lg optimus net dual (bit expensive) ---LG OPTIMUS L3 E405 V10C ROOTED.

  • Dear All, There is no auto focus in camera.

Can't give even one good reason to buy this phone

  • not good for viber call,

  • What are the pro's and cons of this dual sim phone? some say one sim signal and other sim don't. is it really slow and low camera 1.5 only not 3.5? Or is it better to buy a better handset like: LGBL40/Xperia neo/Galaxy Y/Vivaz pro/Sony Ericsson Satio/Nokia Lumia? Bro, what about battery life? Can it play an HD Video 720p - 1080p youtube at least? is the audio too low ? please help

  • Unfortunately LG E405 Lacks this important feature but not to give up, in the Android market, look for a software called Call recorder (it's icon has a REC and a red button and a handset) it works well for me, the beauty of the app is that you can choose when to turn the recording off if you have no need of recording unimportant conversations, the phone handles it well without issues. Check it's settings as well, you can set the quality level from high to poor as well as the file quality type - 3GPP or MP4 - I Choose MP4 because of the clarity. Sometimes it's advisable not to wait for the manufacturer to input some of these things, be proactive and research more on android world, you'll be surprised. Good luck.

  • ya i have same network problem..network of this phone sucks

  • Call recoding inbuilt system when i calling other person like as LGT375

  • call recording when i call other person

  • I believe this LG E405 dual sim phone is not bad. Samsung's Duos is quite expensive compared to the LG L3 Phone. Also it comes with the latest version of ginger bread. The only issue i guess is just the battery life which i believe is applicable to all android OS phones. Android OS drain batteries fast!!!! Google please do something about it...

  • resolution is very bad user interface is veryvery bad. only 150 mb availiable space to install apps/games so 1 gb memory is of no use. gprs/3g is very slow. overall a waste of money mobile.

  • hi mug even i am facing the same problem. plsease suggest.

  • hey frnd that is Samsung galaxy s duos of rs 17900/- n while lg e405 price is 8000/- only wid 2gb mc..

  • I picked up this phone yesterday and it seems pretty good so far. I need to install the PC suite on my system. any reliable source that I can download this from??

  • is there any network problem in dis phn??????????????

  • i have the same problem..this phone sucks

  • How we can can hide files

  • i have pur l3 e405 on last week i m getting very much problem in network there is no network in open place also . i went service station also the just are formating software and giving but no solution that . shopkeeper is also not changing it. problem start from pur of 2 days.what shall i do please suggest

  • The New samsung duo is best dual sim phone . It has 1 GHz single core with 520 Mb of ram. LG L3 has 800 Mb single core and 350 mb ram . Due has 5 mp camera while lg camera is 3.15 mp. Still this phone is cheaper and good phone.

  • download the ASTRo file manager and easily to manage and install the APK apps.

  • Regarding the issue of a missing file manager, this handset comes with polaris viewer preinstslled. This viewer does all your file management other than office productivity. On the useless LG apps, just uninstall the updates and free some space. As one reviewer said, this handset is better in many respects than the galaxy y duos. Just discovered the better video recording as compared to the y duos.

  • Update the SW man using FOTA

  • this one (LG E405 is much better) and cheaper than samsung also the Hardware of LG is much solid

  • coool phone covers all application of samsung. . . buy 8000.00 1gm ram capacpity 800mhz dual sim benefit easy to use with smart touch

  • Nice phone. Wifi connection is good. Gsmarena and many other sites say 1 gb internal memory but actually we can use memory around 150 mb only. Otherwise it is the best competition for galaxy y duos. Overall a very good phone with 800MHz processor supporting temple run.

  • To save more battery don't use launchers,instead use the program of lg installed in your phone. This is a great phone. Specifications met my expectations. e400 case is same case with this phone.

  • Can someone tell if this phone is qwerty only or can the settings be changed to alpha numeric, just like an ordinary cellphone when typing messages. Thank you!

  • which is bettr???? Samsung Galaxy Y Duos or lg optimus duos???? plsss ans dis guysss....

  • Pls any user explain about internet speed & you tube speed lg l3 e405

  • hi i bought this mobile from HS18. At first hand the mobile seems to be a good buy. However, its specs everywhere say it has 384MB RAM but i found that my device only has 301MB which is quite less by around 21%. Please check you device and just let me know if anyone also is facing the same situation

  • connect to pc as mass storage option and put in ur memory card or internal memory. To see the files u need to download any file manager. i have "Andriod File manager" downloaded from play store. Hope it answers ur question.. Chandu

  • please kindly answer my post.. teach me on how and where can i put my downloaded themes,games and application on my lg l3 e405..step by step..tyvm

  • how and where i can put my downloads??

  • Hi all I purchased this mobile 1 week back. Normally i will use mobile in all respects like gaming, music, video, Internet on mobile etc., Below are my observations. Lets get in to pros of this 1. Build quality of the mobile is good. 2. Music clarity and sound out put through ear phones as well as without ear phones is good... Although earohone provided does not seem to be reliable. 3. Played some games like Angry birds space, Run like hell ... runs smoothly.Althoguh sometimes crashes(But very few times can be negligible).Someother games i installed are spped moto,unicorn dash,trail x2, turbofly 3d,panda run,rope n fly, BMX boy, Ninja chicken, cricket fever, bike race, greedy spider, blast monkeys etc., 4. Touch screen is awesome.. no problems at all. 5. Voice clarity is very good while in call.Even loud speaker is very good 6. Battery life is good compared with other andriod devices with these specifications. 7. Camera is good in outdoors(sunlight).. average in indoors. Now lets come to cons 1. Installed Temple run..To play that you should have atleast 120mb RAM free...otherwise it will not launch at all.so has to kill some apps to clean memory..Eventhough sometimes launches and some times not. 2. Using the internet on 2G is dead slow... but very fast in 3G. 3. Big disappointment is it does not have 1GB internal memory(Please make a note before buying it) only 157mb system memory and many applications can be moved to 1GB internal memory.. all Applications will not be installed directly to 1GB internal memory 4. Many apps provided by LG are useless and it can not be uninstalled. Even there is no file manager available!!(My files available in samsung.) 5. Coming to the main point...dual sim...if any downloads are happening, then other sim will be disabled by default...i can see that disable symbol in UI although i didn't try to make a call to other sim while doing downloading..let u know once try this. Sometimes sims network will be disabled by default. 6. Video player provided is also not good. Verdict: So considering the cost and features provided.. this is a good phone for the people who play light games i.e., games with not high graphics.And also good w.r.t audio as well as voice clarity in the call. I bought it from the retalier in bangalore for 8k and he gave me one back pouch also for free of cost. If u have stii any queries....please post it here so that discussion continues... Have a great day!

  • thank you 4 ur reply... bt what bout the features except dual sim (like camera quality, sound, battery back up & etc) da price difference is only of Rs. 900-1100

  • Purchased this yesterday...excellent phone the dual function is good...scrolling the interface is no issue its smooth and fast too. Have downloaded applications like whatsapp, tubemate, actionvoip, facebook, ES file explorer works very fine. Even when I connect from Ex file explorer the movie played very nice without any interferance or breaks....only draw back is no notifican light...have to check after every few mins any miss calls or sms received...Network issues no issues at all...it guess it depends on your network operator availability of network towers....camera is ok not that good but you can take pics...

  • How do you take a screenshot (picture of whats on the screen)??? Thanks in advance for the help.

  • I got mobile network prblm in this phone.. do any bdy face same prblm ?

  • Pls, I need some1 who have been using this phone to confirm: If I am receiving call on sim 1 can a call come into sim 2(like LG GX500) or I will get a "number not reachable" response?

  • My review of this phone in brief is as follows; 1. Dual sim This phone does support dual sim standby. However, sim one Sim will be on 3G and the other on Edge. There is a dedicated touch icon for interchanging the sims. 2. Data speed This phone supports HSDPA upto 3.6mbps. On wifi its is extremely fast thanks to the processor. 3. Internal Memory Even though GSMarena and others claim that the memory is 1GB, that is not accurate. The system memory is actually 157mb! The 1gb is mass storage. 4. Battery life Despite some comments claiming the battery life is bad, it is really great in comparison to other handsets of the same value. I had the samsung galaxy mini and this phone keeps the charge for long. I mean the battery is a 1540 mAh not a 1300mAh. Still using it and will post more later.

  • I have this phone, and I put it on a three year contract. within the first year I absolutely loved this phone , it was perfect. especially for a teenager. the second year, which I am currently on, I now hate this phone. It is the slowest phone I have ever delt with, I have dropped calls all the time, it will randomly shut off or lose service when Im texting , and the phone glitches and freezes all the time. recently I dropped the phone and now the whole phone is in four seperate pieces . so not very durable either. I have to buy a new phone now . Just letting you know. my sister has the same phone and her phone is doing the exact same thing to her to.
