Guys, i have noticed that zoom function at camera mode has been disabled on my cookie. I've tried pressing the volume key and it doesnt zoom. No issue at video mode, zoom functions are working.
Im not sure if this camera zoom function was disabled after upgrading to V10c+24.
Goodnews...No more reset/reboot issues for almost 2 weeks after upgrade.

why the comparison to iphone? kp500's main selling point is its PRICE. c'mon! of course the iphone's better (3g, wifi, elegance, video resolution, etc) IT COSTS A LOT MORE! around 30-35,000 PhP, while the cookie sells for 11-11500 PhP.
damn.
my opinion on the cookie is that it OBVIOUSLY wasn't made to be an iphone killer, but an affordable, gimmicky touchscreen unsmartphone. for its price, the features are pretty decent.
im thinking of buying one because i've read that the media functions (mp3 and video) are decent. so, i won't have to purchase a phone and zune (or ipod) separately. but of course, i'm not expecting this to be an iphone killer. i ain't that stupid to even begin making that comparison.

Hi all.. I'm very tempted by the cookie and wishing to buy one. Has got several questions to ask you guys. For the time being would like to clarify:
- should i store mp3 files only in the sound folder? So does it mean only in phone memory? Cannot store on SD card?
-Does the charger and headphone use the same slot on the phone?
Thanks in advance!

ArvinBoggs, 24 Jan 2009Hi Jake,
Thanks for the feedback. I havent bought the phone yet because there is no LG serv... more1&2. umm yes that's just a wishlist (that can be done in a software update).
3. No you can only use the landscape keyboard in messaging (SMS,MMS,emails)
BTW can the users comment on the bugs? are there any more.
And lastly I've been contacted by LG last wed Jan 21, asking me about the phone (sounds really Korean). They really have great customer support here. I just hope they release their updates in the interweb.

Thanks for the feedback. I havent bought the phone yet because there is no LG service here in Davao City and I might experience the restart bug.
1.) What do you mean of "Phone updates"? Do you mean all of the features listed are already implemented in KP500AT_V10c +24?
2.) Or is it just a wish list?
3.) Is it true that KP500AT_V10c +24 implements the QWERTY landscape keyboard in every every text input-able fields? If yes, I'll search the local stores for a unit that can do this.
Thanks in advance for your answers.

OK I've sent that to LG, hope they update it. Anyways I think this is a great phone. for its price tag. If compared to the first gen iPhone (locked) I think this is much better, yeah I know the UI is not as advance and there's the omission of the wifi. But still it can do so many things the iPhone can't video record and copy&paste anyone? =) In my VERY honest opinion with its UI, touch capabilities, sleekness, PRICE, this phone is a very good buy.

i beg to disagree, i had an iphone and cookie but i love the cookie better than d i phone. never had a prob w/ cookie. love it, very light and thin. user friendly, though ur right it is just basic touch phone but rating it according to its price i gave it 10/10! cool. peace. lol... :p

Good Day!
I've listed some bugs and things that can be upgraded to the phone KP500.
Version KP500AT_V10c +24
Bugs:
While on widget locked mode, (open widget selection and in the lower left there is an icon red (locked), green (unlocked)) when you shake the phone it still rearrange the widgets, also goes to the speed dial screen.
In the video playback landscape mode, when you lock the phone (using hardware lock) the lock icon in the screen (upper right) then unlock it the icon doesn’t disappear.
In Muvee studio settings (save location, music type) doesn’t save after you exit.
In editing mode, when you try to highlight text (for copy, cut) the dragging downward motion registers as a drag up. (eg. If you’re trying to copy something from top to bottom, the screen moves upwards.)
Mp4 sound gain table (it’s always too loud even on volume 1)
Phone updates:
More widgets
More Favourite Apps (specific items). eg. game, simcard menu, brightness setting etc.
Video recording frame rate from 7fps to 15fps and higher bitrates (don’t know if the processor can handle this)
Full screen playback of videos
Bigger caller Id picture, and calling animation (should be a kp500)
Landscape keyboard implementation in every text input-able fields (search contact, create contact, filenames, java apps, etc.)
More landscape features (landscape menus, landscape contact search(if your already in landscape mode in messaging why search in upright form?))
Upright gallery mode and a folder based gallery mode
Voice commands, you have it on your watch phone right?
A full html browser
(and I'm also residing in the Philippines)
Please don't buy this phone('coz I don't want everyone to have it (I want the exclusivity) hehe joke)

Just you wait, LG's are full of glitches and bugs, you will start to see it after you've had it for a while.
And better than the iPhone? LOL I don't think so. No 3G, no OS. What makes the iPhone what it is are it's great operating system, fast internet browsing, overall great web experience and the downloadable applications and games. This phone comes no where near the iPhone's greatness. You obviously have never used an iPhone but I can guarentee you if you did you would see how it beats this phone by far.

My phone came in yesterday. The best phone i ever bought. Way better than the i phone or the g1. The phones features are excellent. The 2g internet is excellent. The speakers are really loud. And the games are fun. The keyboard for messaging is the best thing about the phone. Also the phone is not as big as the i phone so i like that.
Thats all. Grat phone.

for how much it costs you cant really go wrong. very decent and smart lil touch phone, which can live up to the reputation of its bigger brothers. the touch screen can be estatic at times but thats only after constant use.
the camera is decent as well for a 3mp.
feature packed as well, well worth its money

Why do people keep comparing this phone to phones that cost twice if not three times as much?? Its price is cheap after considering which features to omit - 3g wifi etc.....some find this immposible to comprehend but hey...its a bleeding phone not a lifesaving cure for a terminal illness!!!
