http://forum.xda-developers.co...&page=14

6.5 ROM for singapore:

http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/.../V20H_00.kdz

guide:

ok I managed to update my GM730 via KP500-Utils.

quite tricky but this is the closest upgrade process with standard LG update process. below is the steps:
1. run LGUserCSTool.exe --> start update and when there is a prompt [Close] [Next] choose [Close]. basically you just need to be in emergency mode screen.
2. unplug the usb and plug in back again.
3. run KP500-Utils-EN
4. choose I and extract the V20H_00.kdz to V20H_00.cab
5. choose J and type GM730 follow by cab name and firmware name (V20H_00)
6. the Phone Update software will start to extract V20H_00.cab file in this folder C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\LGMOBILEAX\Phone
7. wait until finish as the normal process update from LG

on this process upgrade there is a additional file extracted from cab process .
amss.mbn file (beside flash.bin, GM730WR.dll, dz) so probably this is the issue why we can't downgrade to WM6.1 anymore unless you can get all the file that describe in GM730_service_manual.pdf and using LGMDP (page 138).

there is a log file generated as usual but will be created on your KP500-util folder. (log attached)

It's already end of Feb. 2010. Will LG (Singapore) ever release the winmo 6.5?

The worst mobile phone purchse in the last 15 years (10 phones total). Some of things I don't like:

- S-class interface is at the most half-baked:
- Music player does not recognise musician
or album name (although it is recognized
when going through Windows Media Player
- Wifi only working for web-surfing (e-mail
using wifi not supported)
- Inbox messages displaying oldest mail
first, but after opening a message and
then returning to the inbox, then you
have the newest message first; consitency?
- Horizontal view only allowed for SMS
writing. What's the point?
- Editing contact not available through
the S-Class interface. Have to go to
native WM6.1 through "programs"

-　Phone seems to be acting on its own when it is locked ( I lock it before I put it in the bag, I take it out - still locked - and unlock it to find out that it has started several applications on its own (happens when leaving the phone locked on the desk)

- Support: I have written once when I was confirmed that wifi does not work with e-mail, but following support e-mails were never answered.

- Thought there might be software fixes to be downloaded, but LG does not provide any such service...

I will stick with HTC which my wife owns, which does not have any of the above problems.

yep. after a month, it looks like a one-year-old phone already. lol. i agree also too that the menu (win mo skinned with s-class UI) is INCONSISTENT. the most inconsistent and unexpected UI for winmo phones. sheesh. even the 3 year old Samsung Omnia beats this in any criteria anytime.

Hi I've buy this phone begin of Jan. Find really great, but of course have some cons.
- No LED or Xenon flash
- Battery life short
- No "automatic" lock keyboard: or if have thx to let me know how to activate it.
- Already "crashed" 2 times but maybe comes from Windows.
- Sofware on CD not compatible with Mac but I thk it's for all or most manufacturer.

Otherwise nice phone.

I'm planning to get this phone next week. Do I have to purchase like an internet plan or whatever in order to use the functions like the Windows Mobile stuff? I only paid for unlimited texting. If I purchase this phone do i purchase the internet with it too or it's fine without it. What are some pros and cons for this phone? Thanks

Just got the phone, emailed LG service centre in Singapore regarding winmo 6.5, they replied "we will notify you again when the update is up"

In my opinion, the downside of the phone is its laggy. However, its still a great phone afterall
