some tips for those who wants to watch movies/video songs in this handset:
the device supports upto 400Kbps video bit-rate in 320*240 Resolution along with 128Kbps 44.1 KHz Audio Synchronized. However this is the max thing supported and i won't suggest you to use this specification to watch videos. cause the fact is the screen is not good enough to show you 400Kbps bitrate video. so i figured out the best specification (as per my thought) of video playable for this particular.
I will recommend you to use "Any Video Converter". that's totally free. just google it. then in the converter, Use Customized Mp4 movie mode on the top right side. then, on the bottom right, use :
Resolution : 320*240
Video Bitrate : 256 (still the output would be crisp)
Video Framerate : 24 (That's enough, just give a try)
Audio Bitrate : 128 (for best earphone results)
Sample Rate : 44100 Hz
that's it.. now you can even watch movies. another thing.. if you feel that while playback the video and audio is differing in miliseconds, then you can adjust it by just pressing the Fast Forward for 2seconds... :)
cheers.

Forgot a quick mention about LG 'support', if you can upgrade firmware for this device to fix issues would appreciate a link to where to find it. NEVER forget the KU990i 'lite', sold without headphones to use the inbuilt radio, no data lead, cd or stylus, protective film etc. They even stated radio on box, the one you could not use!!!!!
I helped many friends obtain LG earphones, etc.
Now that LG have become a major, major player they would best shape-up with a European office giving better support. So far, it's a little patchy, beware.
They make good handsets, but and it's a BIG BUT, unless they put better support in place, the word spreads fast, and that would be a shame as love their phones.

Md. Jannatul Ferdous, 02 Jun 2010sorry for my language everyone.. i'm not that good in engli... moreAgree about Opera 5, does crash, however 4.2 seems to work fine, which is good enough. I think the memory available to the Java app maybe the problem. I have often found some handsets are limited to the size of the Java file, it seems upto 500k they seem to be fine. 3d, not sure will have to try, to see if 3d is supported. Again, I will try a smaller file, one of the older 3d games. Seems to work ok with milti-screen apps, it's 176x220 but as you see it does not use full screen in java. The 176x208 do not work so far, however it likes SE 176x220 apps just fine if no lg equiv' available.

Anonymous, 31 May 2010hey does this cell contains javaYes it does, and seems to work with games upto 500k, with no problem. Very sharp screen, had record for radio too. Excellent phone, that is VERY loud, almost a mini Hi-Fi system. For some reason though it plays 3gp files very QUIET, not sure why?? Fantastic phone, in all respects!!!!

sorry for my language everyone.. i'm not that good in english..
okay.. hello everyone... today i want to write something about my phone.. GM200, it's been almost 3months i'm using it. and in this period of time, i've enjoyed every moment with it.
before buying it, i read all the posts regarding this handset.. arguments and other quarrels between some peoples too. i would like to give a thanks to Nevin Joseph. every word of him is true.
This handset is enough to beat ANY handset in its range. About external speaker quality, i've nothing to say, as it is already known for it!
some said there's some problems with files, files get corrupted etc. i want to suggest them that please use an original branded memory card. files will never get corrupted and it would be fast enough to access too.
some said there's some freezing problems. i haven't updated my firmware yet. but till now i've never faced any software crashes or freezes. just once, i tried to open Opera Mini 5, then it froze in the middle of that. but i was able to exit it without any problems. i use lots of JAVA games and applications ... i like to use those in my mobile.. feels great and the response is awesome. no problems. BUT there are some software that doesn't get installed. like 3D games never get installed or played, applications which try to access memory card, camera, bluetooth never opens. for example, i tried to use a JAVA music player, Bluetooth hacker, other java apps that try to use camera -these things never open. so there you can see some restrictions. but important softwares like opera, dictionaries, supported 2d games gets installed very easily without any problems. so not too much in supports of apps, but does well for your basic needs. but bulky unsupported apps may push the device to freeze.
the camera is simply superb. but there's a trick to bring the best out of it. you've to hold the camera VERY STILL while shooting.. if your hand moves too much, the picture won't be good. and another thing, you should shoot pics in good light and the lights should be mostly on your focused subject. that's it. this is simply a dedicated digital camera of 2MP if you've good photo shooting hands. BUT, i hope you'll not expect 5MP out of 2MP.. :)
The FM Radio is one of the best. Voice recorder is not too good for distant recordings. Video is best for MMS only (as per i thoughts). interface is pretty simple and basic. you'll not be puzzled. no themes here, but the white and black is not that bad. screen color is very good, resolution is also good. but sometimes while browsing or watching you may feel unhappy bacause of its 2 inch size. but bear in mind, its a music centric handset, so screen size is not the main thing for music lovers. but i've never felt any demandings of big screens cause mobile is mobile. :P
So the music player, hmm... one thing. its awesome man!
okay. that's all for now, please ask me for any help, i'll try to visit sometimes. :) take care.

Can someone just share the most recent firmware for this phone? As much as I love the music quality and all, there are just some things that makes me not like using this phone as my main and I've read that the firmware can answer it.
All the listed local "supposed to be" service centers on LG's website for our country doesn't offer firmware download. Just nuts. Unlike Nokia and S-E where you can get their firmwares with ease. :/
