    SARANSH, 18 Feb 2010@Nevin joseph Dear friend i have also send the suggestio... moreWell I was actually quite surprised when I got the reply... I really didn't think they acknowledge my suggestion... If we do our part, I'm sure LG wouldn't be able to ignore us all... I do hope atleast half of the tweaks we've posted would get fixed in the next update. That would be a great relief for the time being...

I just can't seem to make the phone stay at the Firmware flashing mode. Did just as instructed in the page but my GM200 automatically restarts after connecting the cable instead of staying shut down. I suspect there is some kind of a code or a button that needs to be pressed in order to keep it shut down. Anyway I'm searching for that trick. Wish some LG service personnel would reveal that technique here. Guess i'm stuck here till then.....

                  Hi everyone...

                  Got a reply to the complaint I've posted on the LG website via mail today.. I'm just gonna post the contents below as it is.

                  Dear Customer,

                  The resolution of below mentioned issues or the addition of new features also requires some hardware changes
                  which may not be implementable at this stage.
                  However we will take your suggestions into considerartion for any new release of software version for this particular model.


                  Regards

I've seen H.264 videos lag like snails on low end phones that support it. The dropped frames n jerky video is a downfall to the otherwise superior quality offered by H.264.

Even if they do provide the support it will pretty much be useless. H.264 requires a good deal of processing power and RAM to play any video with decent video quality. Its better to convert it to Xvid or mpeg4.

Me and Nevin(GM200 Guru)had a discussion on the firmware and related issues of our favorite GM200. I am hereby, posting what we think by far the most important things that either need to be fixed/added/upgraded. We have put in a our best of efforts and just need a bit of sweat from all here, and may be we will be able to pull of this thing and see our GM200 to be the best among the best. All u guys have to do is-

                          a. http://in.lgmobile.com/web/web...erviceRF.laf

                          b. fill in the details.

                          c.. In the comments box just paste this, with a bit of initial editing. Here it Goes-

                          I Bought this wonderful cellphone on 3rd of jan 2010. I really liked the power it posses but then i was flabbergasted with its crappy firmware. In my opinion this phone has the potential to be the best in its class. Some of the annoying bugs that need to be fixed immediately are.

                          1. Only first no gets backed up on the external memory if there are multiple entries.

                          2. Games or application cannot be accessed with the mp3 still playing in the background.

                          3. The Volume rocker key should be functional even wen the keypad is locked and mp3 is on. If LG is promoting this phone to be a music phone then the volume rocker keys should even have track change functionality when keypad is locked.

                          4. The Message capacity needs to be drastically increased. My phone does not seem to hold more than 200 msgs including all the message folders.

                          5. It will be great if the LG think tank increase the internal memory(at least 40mb) and also the external memory expandability to 4gb.

                          6. Get more themes.

                          7. The mp3 stops playing once the owner hangs up the phone after calling others; though it resumes when a call is received and disconnects.

                          8. Java is unstable and the handset tends to freeze after exiting the application/game. The phone has to be restarted to recover.

                          9. The picture editor is a welcome feature in this phone but it would be great if the edited picture could be saved with a size greater than 640X480 pixels.

                          10. The video player should be able to switch form portrait to landscape mode anytime when the video is playing. And there has to be a shortcut key assigned for this.

                          11. The LG website states the support for mp4 H.264 code. It is yet to be implemented in this phone. So there is no support for mpeg4 AVC videos.

                          12. In the mp3 player, there has to be an option for sorting music based on Artist, Albums and Songs.

                          13. Get the message counter feature on this phone. really helps.

                          14. Application lock feature will really come handy and get a secure feeling for the owner.

                          15. And most importantly, the call recorder is missing badly.

                          16. While the Games/applications/mp3 are accessed if a msg is received the game/application/mp3 should freeze and the msg should be displayed on the screen with the senders name; wherein the user can either read and reply to the msg or else simply read and reply later else deny to read the msg in total and resume with the game/application.

                          17. If the game/application can be paused and minimised and later again be able to resume, then nothing like it.

                          18.The MP3 player can supports/reads/plays more file types (like ogg,flac,aac,wav...). Only the file manager can plays these files !!

                          19. When headphones are been put on if a msg is recieved the fone vibrates and the msg is not displaye on the home screen, so one has to go to the inbox to check out.

                          20. Call records feature is regretfully missing.

                          If these things are taken care of at the earliest then I am sure LG will be a brand to reckon with in the GSM segment.

                          Expecting a favorable reply at the earliest.

                          d. Once u guys have done this kindly post comment on the forum, so that we can get a count as to how many voices we are forcing onto them.
