Took the phone back to the shop; it was a faulty phone, I can now change the ringtones without any problem! Thanks for your help, though!

I've read about the charger problem and it only seems to have affected a small batch of phones. Take it back to the shop and get a new charger. The phone should not switch off when the charger is plugged in. Mine is fine.
About changing ringtones, check to see if your contacts have been assigned caller groups as i believe you can assign each caller group a unique ringtone. This will override any ringtone you select in your Profile. If you want to keep your caller groups and you want to use just 1 ringtone then you will have to go through each caller group and change the ringtone to the one you want to use. Hope this helps!

How should the phone work, if working correctly, when charging?
cheers

My charging problem is that when its plugged in the phone, the phone automatically goes off. However, when I take the charger out the phone automatically comes back on. Although, I have notice it does seem to charge despite turning off. STRANGE!
Mine should be replaced in two days.

Got this phone two days ago - slim, well made, very pretty. However I don't seem to be able to change my ringtone! Anyone else had this problem?

Hi Guys, can anyone please tell me exactly what happens to the phone when the charger is plugged in.
I only ask, as when i plug my charger in, the phone screen goes blank after a couple of seconds, however if i slide it up to reveal the keypad, the screen comes on, and it shows the charging display. Is this the same charging problem, or when you say it powers off, you cant turn it back on again?
cheers

128 MB and no expansion slot?!
128 is filled quickly. How can it be popular i korea, do they take small pictures of small people. A taller european might not fit into the memory. More mem and it's a hit.

"weak for dropping" - I've got one of these and it seems very sturdy so believe it should cope with the standard drops!
This in white would be seriously cool!!

Just bought this phone from the Carphone Warehouse and i'm completely blown away by it! The touch pad is responsive, and *I think* it's heat sensitive as the touchpad doesn't work if I use a stylus or pen so i'm assuming the warmth of the finger does it.
Anyway, the box it came in is very classy, gives you the overall impression that you've bought something very special. I was quite surprised actually as you get some nice stuff in there like the pouch, screen cleaner/phone charm, headphones etc.
The design of the phone is extremely well done, the slide is smooth, the camera quality is good and yeah, it only has 128mb of memory but I think that's alright, I mean, if I want to listen to music then that's why i've got an Ipod!
So far, i've plugged it into my PC and only used it in mass storage device mode (i.e. drag and drop files directly in to the phone, no software needed) but haven't used the PC software yet for stuff like contacts.
Overall, I am extremely impressed with the phone, it's features and especially its looks. This is my first LG mobile and so far so good!!

Hey guys i know this is just a far out idea, but cos of it being such a small memory is there no way of getting it upgrade by someone that say is an electical engineer. say get a new bigger sized chip solder in or somthing say up to 512mb cos 128mb is bit of a waste really when it has teh focus on the music side of things with tehg controls there.

@ Phiduong
The problem you're talking about is sometimes coming from the charger.
You just have to do like Wonderkid and change it in Carphone Warehouse, it's not a big deal!
A friend of mine lend it to me last WE and the design is really amazing. The touch Pad, the red lights keys and the chrome outline create a great effect!
Personally there's no competition between the E900 and the LG 'Chocolate' ;o)

@ palm
The screen size is 176 x 220 pixels.
What's going wrong?

I have had mine for a couple of days now, I got one of the new batch without charging problems. Initially I got this phone because of it's looks, but it funtions quite well also. I've been a Nokia bloke all my life, and it's quite a drastic change. Most things are similar, i.e. text messaging. The finger sesitive buttons are a nice feature, but a little too un-responsive for my liking, I'm used to navigating quite quickly round my phone and the front buttons just hinder the process. 1.3 MP Camera is nice, but only 128MB storage is a little low. Overall I'm happy with LG. Beware greasy fingers!!
