I am completely disappointed with what I've heard from here. I am planning to buy this phone; good thing I read your comments first. So thank you very much. :) How about other LG phones? Are they any good?

The external memory on my LG KC550 is accepting the tunes fine when taking the tunes from the PC.But when you try to access the tunes on the phone, the external memory shows that it is being used but I can't find the tunes on 'my stuff' external memory or mp3. I have formatted the external memory

battery performance is very poor: spec says standby time is 450h and talktime is 6 hours. this is not true at all - my battery is dead after roughly 6 hours standby only and 10 mins talktime, defeats the object of having a mobile fone as the battery is always low/dead!

I am disappointed with the camera performance in low light condition. There is a lot of noise and colours are reddish. What I don't understand is the fact that the photo looks good after I press the shutter halfway. When I press the shutter completely and take the photo it doesn't look good at all. I am wondering if someone had the same problem.

> In reply to ANNIE @ 2008-12-22 12:17 from uWEM1)If you were to download a .gif file to the phone, eg http://b3ta.com/board/9026064 (the first animation), then I can testify that the gif will still be animated when set as the background. There are no themes for the kc550, so it would only be on the standby screen

2)There are four slider tones. Personal tones can not be added. TBQH, as on all phones their cheesy, tacky and useless. Just turn it off as its more likely to annoy those around you than be of any use to you.

3)See 1st post. There are no themes, in the same way that all phones made by lg, samsung and motorola never have themes. The only phones with themes are nokias (and other symbian phones) and SEs (and other flash based UIs)

> In reply to Graham @ 2008-12-12 16:51 from nxX0read pages 57 and 58 in the user manual that come with the phone. it shows you how to do it using the network cable. it proves really easy and a lot faster than bluetooth.

I return!
Word of advise people, dont drop the phone. I'm aware how stupid this sounds, but hear me out.
When the phone is dropped and the shock impact is hard enough, the phone semi formats the memory card; it still 'exists' but cant be entered and when you go in the memory settings its not their. To fix just fully format the card.

And files can only be blutoothed to phone, so impractical if you want to send anything bigger than a couple of songs since the phone only has around 20 mb to keep the cost down.
As I've mentioned before, dont use Lg Suite. Its buggy and refuses to work with most operating systems. If using files, just use Windows file explorer.
As I always say, if you need any help, ask!
