  • I have this phone for more than 2 years..it's goood,it may have some problems,but never let me down not once.Battery life is good,sound..it's true it dosen't sounds soo strong,loud..but you can hear it :P

  • Hi, having trouble receiving songs from other phones when using Bluetooth. When the other person pairs up with my phone and tries sending they get a message saying "sending failed". No message comes up on my phone, only the senders phone. A phone with no music ain't worth having, lol, please help someone.

  • I hav used dis phone 4 two yrs in d 2nd year it developed problem(the network appears and disappears)tried 2 work on it but it continued what should i do.

  • The most ugly phone I have ever owned - The camera is functional, but it looks so clumsy. But Hey! A few years ago it was the s**t!

  • By the way anyone who has touble connecting to the computer on the setup CD at the bottom it says install USB drivers and after you've done that boot up phone manager and it will work nice and smoothly

  • I had this phone up until about a month ago cause i accidentally went swimming with it. I though it was a god phone but after a while it started turning off randomly and it was very slow for some reason... i didn't really like it i tough it was to big and chunky

  • i have this phone for 2 years now ,,, never have a problem in bluetooth or connecting to pc or camera ,,, or even battery ,,it works for 3 days,,, it fall down many times and nothing happened ,,,and u can download g-thing to install application and games /// i did it easly ,i never get its charger out of the source, the phone is working so well evenif it has so little lillies :D

  • I have the LG U8360, and i want to download a themes, and when i try to search a themes of LG U8360, it says there is themes for your phone:( oh nooooo

  • i like this phone its cute

  • When i download icq or jimm mobile dont work. Why?

  • I have this phone and wanted to put a microSD card into it. I saw a special on a Sandisk Micro SD 2GB & reader package for $30 from JB-HIFI. The phone did not recognise it at all, it was as if it wasn't even installed. In short, I decided to keep the 2GB for when I get a new phone and purchased a 1GB from JB-HIFI for $15 which WAS recognised and works perfectly. So, therefore 1GB is the maximum for this phone and the 2GB will NOT work at all, even though some sites 'suggest' that it will when you google, etc and see U8360 as 'supported' next to the 2GB which I will state again as FALSE. A good phone, good battery life and features.

  • this phone is so ****ing crap.. 1) it cannot connect to pc 2) the screen keeps screwing up 3) no external memory 4) camera is gey 5) antenna is so annoying 6) phone is so ****ing heavy 7) cannot accept games via bluetooth & so on..

Everything seems to be connected A OK except when I select a COM Port - I don't have one with a * star next to the number. I have tried connecting using a couple of various ones but none seem to work. What does it mean when I don't have a COM Port with a star next to it!? Please help!

  • Ok.. some of you hate that phone.. some others don't :-) I have it for around 2-3-4 months (I took it from a friend of mine) and I still have no problems with the PHONE itself. LG had made a good phone for talking - battery live is pretty good (it's ~1400 mAh .. :D . My pocket PC has 1300 mAh batter..). The bluetooth is with it's own opinion about the connection and if you want this phone connected to the PC you'll have to have at least IQ over 300 (lol I'm kidding) . But it's a bit of a mess. Sometimes it works with no problems.. but sometimes.. it just says that your COM port is not OK.. and that's all :D If you want to use this phone mostly for talking - it's perfect.

  • I LOVE THIS PHONE! but i have a 1GB memory card and it is very slow. The screen goes blank and it takes awhile for the phone to operate again like it takes a few secs but its really annoying. And it wont connectb up to the computer. Can someone help me plz thanks Sarah

  • this fone is not very good the fone is flimsy when you flip it open and has no spring to it you need to push it all the way open to be able to get it open. i would suggest a fone like the nokia 6085 which has all the functions except for it has a VGA camera:)

  • hey people, i brought this phone a few months ago. Its a worth while investment. The camera is clear and great for self portraits. The only problem is if u have the camera resolution on 1.3 mp (1280x960) you cant use the zoom or multi shot options. The MP3 is pritty good too. But it takes along time to get songs on it. I only suggest to buy this phone if you live in a 3G area. Otherwise u cant browse the good net and calls cost ALOT more. If u have anyother questions just email or add me on msn ([email protected]) thx.

  • buy a card reader.it's 10euro.It's faster and same as price as a data cable and it's easyer to use.

  • hey everyone i've had the lg u8360 for about 6 months and i love it! It has everything i could possibly need and is always reliable i think everyone should get this phone! Amanda

  • just got this phone and when i tryed to connect to the phone manger when setting the com port theres tick or anything next to any of the numbers does anyone no wat to do

  • I Have this phone and hav had it for over a year now, i used to have the same problem connecting the phone to my PC, a bit tricky but then i worked it out. 1. connect it via USB and open the Phone Manager. 2. In preferences tab up the top click on COM Port. 3. Find the port that is ticked and click on it. (even though its ticked doesnt mean its the port its trying to connect to. 4. Make sure ur phone is at the home screen i.e press the red end call button so u can see ur background pic. 5. Click connect and sync away. Hope this helped :)

  • fantastic! long life battery, after a year and 2 months 6-7 days, if you press for 3-4 seconds the volume down button you get a powerfull flashlight, 1,3 mp, mp3, enough 4 me. until it dies i don`t need another phone

  • when i try to connect my fone to the pc this always comes up 'fail to connect to mobile handset, please check comport and connect in idle screen. due to multifunction, despite idle screen, it can be failed to connect." also there is no COM port with a * please help i have tried everything! email [email protected]

  • how do u put mp3 off ur computer onto the phone??? if some1 knows can they email me at [email protected]

  • these phones are really good, their very cute and fashionable.. their better than the old 3 phones and their better than a slide up phone because slide up phones break very easy, like if u drop them or get sand or dirt accidently in them it makes them very hard to slide up. flip phones are the most common and the best, they look the nicest and they are very hard to break. i reccomend this phone. FANTASTIC PHONE!! ohh and by the way, all 3 phones have msn. xxo

  • the phone works.very good battery time. just dont buy it from somebody else..buy a new one..it supports 1Gb microSD memory card.camera works best with natural light, nice pictures.I like it

  • I had problems with the camera and external display....so be careful with it!!!At first i loved it, but now.....

  • So..i have an LG U8360 ,but he doesen't read the "ACC" format or "MPEG4", i tell u fosr shure. And he can hold 100 send, received and missed calls. so check phones before publicate informations about them!please excuse my language!

  • I bought this phone recently, and i have found it to be brilliant for its price. My opinion of Pro's and Con's follow. Cons: Flash could be brighter. Can't pause Java apps, or listen to music while using Java apps. The aerial! ugly. You can't change the function of the softkeys. MP3 Player volume doesn't go high enough No shuffle function for MP3 Player Pros: Fantastic screen - Both Expandable memory - Hot swappable Camera - brilliant for its resolution Loudspeaker Reception - So much better than my old samsung x640 Reading txt messages on outside screen - I use it all the time! Good battery Back casing - Easy to remove, but doesn't come off by itself. Stereo Headphones - Volume control on them! Video playback - Love the fullscreen feature. If you would like to know anything about the phone, feel free to email me.

  • the lg is a great fone i consider it stax better then my old razr peice of crap i jumped in a pool with cos i forgot it was in me pocket this fone is not fat BRAD PAUL read the book THREE IS THE MAGIC NUMBER

  • Hi I have just got a LG U300. I have installed the phone manager that came on the cd. I have read all the instructions about connecting the phone to my PC using the USB cable. Everything seems to be connected A OK except when I select a COM Port - I don't have one with a * star next to the number.

  • thank you shayne, i wondered about the 2g memory, ok i got the phone but for the life of me i cant get it to go on the computer i have a usb cable but nothin seems to happen ,,in the commport i dont get a * on any of my port# ,,i know im very stupid ,thanks for your time

  • to "jj": no offence but thats one of the most stupid things i have heard. OF COURSE YOU HAVE TO PAY! If you are going on 3, they are 3 bucks a song and i would suggest u download from bigpond music on the net for half the price and put them on through usb cable.

  • hey i was wondering if this fone is worth getting could some one send me a email telling me what the pros ans cons are and what the box contents are send it to [email protected] thanks

  • it is a gr8 fone all the features for cheap and a 512mb memory card doesnt slow it down a bit.

  • I am thinking of getting this phone and I am from perth. I heard that it gets sold out really fast. When downloading songs for MP3 in the phone, do you have to pay?

  • this is to the person 'WONDERING' yes a 2gb card would heavily slow the fone down, a 1gb slows the phone down bad, a 512mb slows the phone down little bad and the 256 slows it down only selecting the files that have lots stored in them for me its sounds that has 33 files in it, when u want to pick it its slowsa down for 4 seconds then goes on it. and 128mb will just make it rune fine

  • some1 said a 512 memory card slows the video down,,so you saying a 2 gb would do the same???????????

  • Hello, please i would want you to send the user manual for LG U8360.Thanks

  • i think i have got the best fone i can get for $169 and to all those people who are having problems with theirs take your time to read the book seriously it helps. if you want a good cheap fone with heaps of features this is the fone for you

  • hey with the dude b4 this one go to transfer when u are at the lg phone manager screen then click set com port click the one that looks like this ie : COM PORT 9* click that now press connect on the transfer bit -u shouldve plugged ur fone in by now ok katch ya ll later and if you have any questions submit ur opinion on ere ill reply back PS: i am a master of all phones

  • hi i know that plenty of peoplpe have said this here but for my lg u8360, i tried to install this but it didnt install and something comes up telling me to pick a com port or something like that. should i just give that up and get a bluetooth dongle if any1 has a solution could they please email me on [email protected] cheers nasir

  • ok every one that cant put stuff from ur pc on ur phone simple after installing lg phone manager from the installation cd u get with the phone open that and connect your phone then opent the lg phone manager up, it now should come up with a screen with a phone on it click contents on the left side of the page then it should come up with a screen up top of the page click transfer then it should say set com port clik the com port* with the star and tick usb. then ok it then go back to transfer and click connect it should say on ur phone connected. Now whatever u want to put on the phone locate it not on the lg phone manger but on ur pc and double it by puttin the mp3 or image on the desktop now whatever u put on ur phone must be doubled or else u lose it off ur pc and on to ur phone. now back on the lg phonemanger on the left side should be like desktop and stuff click my computer on it then lg phone then it should say card if you have one or image sound video click the folder which u want to store whatever u want then back to whatever file ur puttin on the phone drag that to the folder u selected and wala its on then the file on the desktop you doubled earlier put that back where u found it. Then to finish up clik transfer then disconnect. You have sucessfully transfered a file to ur phone im sorry if this sounds complicated but it works. Lg u8360 rox buy this phone and only get a 256mb card a 512 makes it run slower, camera good video good bluetooth good everything else is good.

  • how do you download music from limewire or other song downloads to your mobile?

  • hello all, i have the answer 2 ur promlems about connecting da phone to da computer well first if you want 2 put music games etc. on your phone you need a transflash memorycard for your phone Aud$30 now you can get stuff on your phone first put the transflash in the bigger holder that comes with it then put it in your camera ( which doesnt come wif the phone ) connect it to the computer and it opens up good luck :)

  • G'day I Have this problem with my phone... I can sync with LG desktop no probs there But i cant with LG Phone Manager It says "fail to connect to mobile handset, please check comport and connect in idle screen. due to multifunction, despite idle screen, it can be failed to connect." i relise that you posted that comment a couple of months ago and was wondering if you found a solution? PLz email me on [email protected] Thank you so much!!!! Chris

  • I Want to explain that LG U8360 is avery good phone and you can set mp3 as ringtone if you want to be sure enter the lg mobile sit and you will be sure

  • this is the best phone ever get it only $169 at tandy or dicksmith. Get it quick only for 3 more weeks hurry.

  • why it does not connect when i try to connect it with the USB device. Every time it says �failed to connect com port error�.is there some thing missing in that?plz reply me.

  • I bought the LG U8360 unlocked on Ebay. I'm in the US so, I had to change the settings to my carrier (T-Mobile). It is a very good phone. The outer color screen can look distorted sometimes, depending on the angel your viewing from, but it takes very good pictures and videos. The mp3 is great. The speaker is loud and clear. I have only two complaints. 1) While using the speaker phone with an active call, you can not close the phone. 2) The calculator does not offer a % function. Both of these are useful and should be standard on a phone with so many other high end features. My other phone is the Motorola V635, it has the % function and you can close the phone while engaged with an active speaker call, but I didn't care the call history and it's mp3 player is not so good. Overall the LG U8360 is a very good phone and I would reccomend it. :)

  • if you want to transfer pictrures or mp3's through the usb you should try installing all th programs until it works, also try changing the ports in the phone manager, eventually it will work... Ok so my problem, my phone is a little slow(retarded) everything works ok but it has takes a lot of time for it tho think so the loading(please wait) screen appears often...what can I do 'bout this?

  • I was wondering how you can put music on to your playlist. Then can you put your playlist music as the ring tone could someone please email me on [email protected] your help would be much appreciated

  • This is an awesome phone for the price you pay (ie $200). Its honestly got features packed into phones that are easily +$400 such as the Motorolla v3x. Anyway, I got it about 2 weeks ago and its working great. btw, how to activate the Winows Media Player function? I havent got a T-Flash Card yet but wenver I play an audio file, it opens in the standard LG Media Plyer. Thnx in advance if you can help.

  • i have been using this fone for 7 months. i love it. but i cant transfer my images to my computer through usb. could someone help me?. it says some com port problem

Or if you just want to chat about phones. Ta and don't hesatate to email.

  • In the statistics it states that there is no mp3 ringtone. But Dont be alarmed. IF u put an mp3 onto ur phone and then press options and select sound theme > then select voice ringtune or video ringtune and the next time u get rung the mp3 u have selected will play.

  • Hi, I'm from Romania. I want to say that beside the look, mp3 and bluetooth this phone sucks. - The 1.3mp camera sucks (photos or video have very poor clarity) - The flash is too close tot the camera and all the pictures are very bright, and can't see anything - Writing an SMS is a hard thing because the keyboard lags (it's from the software i think) - You can't change themes, sick of the same looks I'm selling it and get a Nokia, they rock

  • its one of the best phone i ever had buy one yurself

  • ive had this fone for over a month and its great with a decent battery and signal is reliable.I love full screen video by pressing the star key whilst playing vid.It looks heavy but i think its dead light compared to my n6680.it does all the basics well & is one of the fones id recommend but on 3 you have to rent games at 50p for 3 days so thats the only setback

  • I own this phone for 2 months & I can say it's an all-in-1 package, even concerning the affordable price. It's a fantastic piece from LG(keep it up LG!!). The only flaw I found is about loading JAVA applications, it's not impossible but you got to find the GThing s/w, etc.. Else, I recommend it.

  • moby memory .com does test memeory cards & the lg 8360 will accept a 1gb micro sd card (transflash).just in case anyone is confused transflash is to be called sd micro from now on to make it a standard part of the sd group of memory cards

  • im thinking about buying this phone but i was wondering can u use it as an mp3 player, ie use the transflash card to put mp3's on and use it as a player with the phone closed? plz reply

  • Tried today _1GB_ Transflash It works PERFECTLY. I just have to do some more tests to fill the card up to its limit (tried only with 100Mb), but I am almost sure that there will be no problem at all. I just don't understand why someone has to give misleading informations ('up to 512Mb') if he doesn't know the issue. Bah However the phone is _really_ good, full of features and cheap. Just a bit dumpy, but black colour is nice. Bye

  • Hi! I bought this phone in Italy.But there is no such phones in Russia. I search for some soft for it.please send some links where can i download soft for my phone. Thanks

  • Can someone please tell me how to get games for free to my mobile phone(LG U8360).Please do not tell me if it involves money. email:[email protected]

  • This does not seem to be compatible with the Motorola ht820 bluetooth head set for music, is there a way around???

  • Not a bad phone for an LG. I work with mobile phones every day and this is currently the ONLY LG handset, that I wouldn't mock somone for owning (well.... not much anyway). I can't say much about the camera or how good it is at actual calls, but it does have considerably more power in it than any of the other LG's I've worked on, so it can hold it's own whilst running some pretty intensive games. For those of you who want to put games onto it without buying GThing or using wap, it is possible with the USB cable and a memory card (or memory card and card reader). If your using the usb cable, make sure the memory card is inserted into the phone, then use the Phone manager from the official LG PC suite. Connect to the phone, and you should be able to see several directories, including one alled card (the memory card). From there, there should be a subdirectory called 'Other', simply drag the games Jar file into this directory, then disconnect. Then you can use the phone to access the memory card ("external memory" section under "My stuff") and click the file you coppied over. Then you're all set! Similarly if you have a memory card reader, do the same... copy the jar file to the "Other" directory on the memory card, then put it into the phone and run.

  • how much memory does the t-flash support the lg u8360

  • Hey Laura I wolud like to tell u something about this phone. My uncle just bought it and he is very satisfied, in addition of camera rotating. u can get pictures but u cant see them during taking pic.

  • argh. awesome phone, but i am having trouble with the connecting of it to the pc.

I'm wondering if anyone else has had this problem and if Any one can please help me with any solutions ! (and no, getting a new OS isn't an option lol.)

  • hi I have this phone but i don't know how to download the pictures and videos in my computer. i installed the software from lg U8110, but it said it is good for U8xxx. it says 'cannot copy 3gp from blablabla' Can anyone please help me?

  • @Scud-As a matter of fact,you can do both things-play music whil the phone is closed and you can also send sms,do whatever you like,while music playing,you just have to set it to 'play in the background'.When you get the phone,I'll help you do it :)

  • I was thinking about getting this phone on three pre-paid but one of the things i was wondering is whether or not i could leave music running when the phone is flipped closed and have the music run through a headset and if i could use other features of the phone such as readin messages while a song is playing. Thanks, Scud

  • .Thats a good sight for java gamz try it and see if it works ok thats the best i cAN DO LOL I might get this phone soon

  • i have this phone for one month and i like it.it's very good but i have a question:can u tell me,please where can i find games for this phone,to download them.if you know please send me a mail at [email protected]

  • Just adding, screen is very bright, colourful and crisp. The sound is relatively loud on the speaker. The bluetooth is very easy and good to use. The camera isn't the best but its good for taking quick snaps of high resolution. You can have pictures come up when someone rings you, the contact has to be saved to the phones memory and then you can edit it from there. This is a good site for games, just rename them to .jar instead of .zip and use Gthing to install them or upload them onto a website and use WAP to download them

  • Hey, I've had this phone for a few weeks now and I really do like all its features and design. I'd never used an LG phone before but the menu layout and keys are really simple and effective to use. All its features are positives and the only cons about this phone I can think of are that it is slightly larger than your normal phone but I don't care and you can't really type fast when messaging or writing something. Apart from these minor cons this is a really good phone for its cheap price. The software that comes with it is really good and does everything except able you to upload games. The best software to use for this phone is Gthing. It works flawlessly and ables you to put games onto the phone for free, the only thing is that Gthing costs US$7. I was skeptical at first whether or not to buy it but I'm very satisfied with paying for it. You can't find old versions or cracked versions of it as it will only work with your IMEI number of your phone. I hope this was helpful, thankyou

  • i am looking at new phones and have to buy it myself and im wondering which phone would be the best for its value, i like this phone but dont know how well it will work. is the camera and screen quality good or should i look for a better phone? please email me back with info because i dont think ill find this website again o.O

  • hi everybody; i wanna buy an lg phone,they are cheap and have a lot to offer! i was wondering how is this screen compared to samsung and motorola screens of the same resolution?? and how about the sound?? is it loud enough?

  • Excellent mobile phone!!! Verry good battery life,strong signal,i use a 512 MB T-Flash,and you may use up to 1GB.But i cant find java games for LG.Please someone post links where i can download java games for LG. Thank's.

  • forgot to mention some more about java.. for anyone who wants to install java apps/games on their phone, without buying it from their provider or downloading via wap, the only way to do it seems to be with a program called GThing. it costs $US7, and is a real hassle to buy since you have to buy it for every seperate phone you buy (it only works on 1 IMEI).. i came across an alleged method, but it doesnt work for me. you might have different luck, so its worth a try.. here's the link:

  • for the price range this phone is in, it's for me quite clearly the best phone for its market.. the only thing which annoys me is that it's hard to compile java apps (games etc) manually. but it's automated via wap, so you'll have no problems with anything you download via the phone, it's just when you want to put java directly onto the phone.. to put mp3's and such on the phone, plug the phone to the pc via the usb cable, and pop the cd that came with the phone in as well.. it'll install some drivers, let it do it automatically, and after 3-4 installations it'll all be done.. next, install the software on the cd.. now, open the newly installed "LG Phone Manager" program, and with your phone still plugged in via the usb, click on "Transfer" then "Set COM Port...", one of them should have an asterix (*) next to it, select that one (for me its COM5).. next, click on "Transfer" and then "Connect".. IMPORTANT, make sure your phone is at the home screen before doing this, otherwise it'll come up with a connection error.. once you see that your phone is connected (just look at the screen), then click on contents to the left.. from within there, you can now browse your hard drive. copy the files you want by browsing to them through the file manager, then right click and "copy", then in the left panel double click on "LG Phone", then go to the appropriate folder (videos, sounds, images), then simply paste them in there.. voila, the files will appear on your phone now..

  • I have a LG U8360 since december, last year and I think it is a very good phone, one of the best from LG. It is a good phone at a low priece. Only one question : do anyone knoes how to put some games in it(a site or something)?

  • Hi! I am really interested in buying this phone; can anyone tell my what is the highest card size it supports? 256MB? 512MB? ...1GB?? Also anyone knows anything about it's battery life? How long does the 1400 mA battery last? 10x!

  • PLEASE HELP ME! i have no idea what im doing with this phone.. how do u put mp3's on it. ive tried reading past posts for info but its all too confusing. email or post asap :'(

  • hi all. had phone for 4 months and works fine. connecting on usb on xp fine 2. software aint very brill.. get some of download.com (aac converters ect. 18 full lenght tunes converted from mp3 into acc format put on the phone, taken all vid's and pic's of phone to save memory as not have flash card so don't put mp3 on the phone as you won't get many tunes on it, convert them 2 acc unless u have the flash card as built in mem is crap and a zx spectrum has more lol. 1 thing i don't like about the phone you have to make a playlist to skip a tune and also i don't injoy the player software could be better and the speakers are crap 2. and if you need the software send a email. yer the phone is cheap to buy now and have mine on contract, wish i didn't as seen the phone for �110 in the secondhand shop and now theres many better 1s for less.

  • @ Asim I also have win 98 (SE that is ),and I installed all the drivers given there,I went step-by-step,as my machine was reporting new hardware,I think it was 3 times,or so,since I also have a transflash card inside.So,as I previosly said,just install all there is,set the port,go to transfer->connect in Phone Manager,and that's it!

  • I have this phone 10 days ! very good phone form Lg ! :))

  • I think this phone is cool. I had an NEC e616v before and as for file transfer, it's way better than that. The fact you can use MP3's as ring tones is good too, and it has blue tooth! I only paid �80 for the refurb model. The camera is actualy quite clear and anyhow if you think about it, 1.3 mega pixels isn't actually THAT high compared to any dedicated digital camera you can get (2.5 or more) so I don't know what people are expecting from a MOBILE PHONE! It's not a professional photgraphic piece of equipment; the phone camera is there to take quick snapshots! I like the fact you can get high quality images on to the phone as wallpapers as my old NEC model would only allow low quality ones, usually GIF files or PNG, whereas with this phone you can get almost any 3D wallpaper you find off the net and the phone will shrink it to fit the screen perfectly. I also use my computer wav sounds (converted into MP3's) as my text message tones as they are louder than the MIDI files and don't vibrate the speaker as much.

  • I have no idea which driver is for Win98, I`m with XP, sorry.

  • Ive figured out how to put mp3s on but is it possible to chuck a game on it were do you download the games from?

  • To [BG]dob_rock Thanks for your advice. I am still having the same problem.It seems that USB driver is not installed on my PC. Can you please tell me which driver should I install and where can I get it from? I have Windows 98 on my PC.

  • The correct port is shown in the Sync Manager->Configure->Communication Settings and you must mark the same port in the Phone Manager->Transfer->Set COM port If it still doesn`t work you should try to install the USB driver once again, the tricky thing is that the driver should be installed 4!!! times (I gues the korean dudes from LG just like to make life difficult for us europeans) Good luck to everyone with the synchronization, it`s not an easy one !

  • I m having problems in connecting phone to my PC. I don't know which port no. should I put in when using the transfer option. Can somebody please help me? Thanks.

  • @ Pete I suppose you're talking about USB connection along with the software-it's not a biggy,you have to install everything you got,especially Sync and Phone manager,new hardwares ofcourse;then,you open the Phone Manager,go to TRANSFER where you set the correct port,for example mine is COM6,and then you click CONNECT;phone must be closed,in order to connect via USB,you will see a little animation that shows a pc and a phone with some arrows.

  • how do you connect the phone when i click connect it still dont work even after going thru tools nd stuff

  • @ Kevin Maximum memory I heard someone used (external one ofcourse)is 512,I have transflash SD card of 128 and I payed it 9 euro (in Italy)..

  • I just wanted to know if it is better to have infaraed or bluetooth and what exactly is bluetooth?

  • Dear Friend, I got an LG u8360 cell phone , but i don't have its cd disk. So that i am not able to synchronize it with my PC though i am having the data cable. Anyboby can help me, please. Best Regards, Masud. Dhaka, Bangladesh.

  • If you want to install Java applications without paying for the direct-to-phone download you need 3rd party PC software (Google gThing). Otherwise dump the jar files onto a transflash card and use that.

  • Can somebody tell me how to put Java games off your PC onto your phone

  • When installing the usb compataibilty note that if your running Windows Xp. You must install all drivers meaning that when the bubble at the bottom right hand corner of your page appear and you click it and it tells you if you have a cd that came with the product. If your cd is already in eject it and put it back in. Then wait while it installs the driver. Then after you will have to install another driver do the same process several times until all drivers are install then install phone manager ect.

  • Hi all can enyone tell me if this phone has a loud speaker and also has it got a camra flash?Thanks.

  • Between this and the SE K608i, both offered by my local 3G shop at the same priced plan, I would say the SE would be a better choice- my personal opinion. Yes, the LG clamshell design is quite nice, however, I have used my friend's older model LG phone also from 3G, and I would have to say that the interface is not as functional and effective as the SE mobiles. Also after limited use, my friend had dropped the phone from a normal floor height, and the LCD screen already started to lose colour/gain messed up pixels. The only real advantage of this over the SE phone was that the LG has a more appealing clamshell design, and also expandable memory slot. Other than these two things, I would say that the SE was a better product in general. Can I get any other opinions, please?

  • get the lgu880 it has wayyy more memory and im guessing a better camera. and very slim.

  • You most definitely can copy mp3s to the phone or extended memory and use them for ringtones. That's what I do.

  • Hi! Can I copy mp3 and/or mpeg files to the phone? If yes, how does it work? Thanx, Olli

  • yes u can,u can have mp3's as ringtones. well, it works for me and i have this fone

  • no andrew u cant, but u can convert to wav and play music in the mp3 player it has

  • Hey on the phone can u set mp3's as the ringtones?

  • i got this phone last friday and i love it its awsome the only bad thing is that it keeps freezing on me and the picture size you take to cover ur backgrond you cant zoom but otherwize its awsome

  • I was wondering if there was a limit on how large the external memory size can be upgraded to, and what the price of the maximun memory is?

  • Hey, i got this fone abotu a week or two ago. and im not impressed wit the camera quality at all. It looks VERY BAD wen taking photo's inside. htey look all dotty and stuff, you can't really notice it on the phone but once put on the computer they look sooo bad. Does anyone else have this problem with their LG U8360 ? or is it just me, if it is just mine, should i take it bak with the warrenty ? Please reply!

  • this phone is older then the u8380 and maxumin flash card is 256 while u8380 can take a massive 1gb

  • Um.. I really really am impressed with this phone; I am thinking of getting it... The minor question is what size of transflash does it support? How about this phone's older brother (8380); what is the max. MB for transflash? Very impressive phone nevertheless....

  • This is the best phone ever. I just love it. Not a fault in sight.The quality of the pictures & movies are superb. The swivel of the camera has come in handy more than 10 time. I would suggest this phone to any one of any age because it's ssssssssssssssooooooooooo easy to use.

  • hi, i recently bought the lg u8360, and i want to connect it to my computer, but i have a mac and it doesnt read mini CD's. does anyone know how i could get the software another way?

  • hey. i am thinking about getting the lg u8360 but my main concern is how long the video goes for and is the quality good. can anyone tell me??

  • i think that you should use bluetooth on more phones that would boost sales loads

  • strongly recommend this phone, camera and mp3 players work properly, nothing to complain

  • Hi Vanessa, I work in the mobile industry and can definately sugest this mobile over the Samsung E530. Reasons.... This one has 1.3 megapixels. And expandable memory, as well as Video Calling for face to face conversations, compared to the E530 which doesnt have any of the above.

  • hey is this a good phone. i want to get it but the only thing thats stopping me is the size of it. is it too large? does ne one know what its like compared to the samsung e530.

  • Miles and miles ahead of their previous phones (bluetooth, 1.3MP, expandable mem), but... regardless of that,... its still LG. Always been hesitant to purchase an LG, simply coz of the amount of phones that are returned for ELF, or jus genral problems with them... but hey, i guess everyone has to start sumone... kudos to LG for finally a phone thats upto par with the norm of today.

  • had this phone since friday and must say so far so good.last lg phone ihad was the 8120 thay hav come a long way wiv this 1 well dun.1.3mega pixel cam is very good both on cam and video.lookin 4ward 2 the next 1.

  • Gotthis fone great looking, bluetooth,megapixel camera,memory card and good outercolour screen but why has it taken so long? we could of cut out 8120,8130ect should of had fm radio and has a few minor cosmetics left out from previous models.
