Just browse the sounds folder to select the song you want and under options, select the set as ringtone option. It is even possible to set songs as ringtone in the mp3 menu.

Nevin Joseph, 06 Feb 2010Totally agree with you mate.... I compared mine with W810i,... moreYes external speakers are a plus but whether with earphones I did not find much of a difference comparing with even g502. Yes pricewise g 502 is on the higher side.But S E mobiles facilitates easy navigation compared to lggm200.
Music copied from pc does not allow to be set as ringtone directly.
Though S E g 502 and lggm200 have 2 mp camera lg gm 200 picture quality is nowwhere near s e g502

ulat, 06 Feb 2010to naven please could you help me to chose which one better... moreWell... to me both are sensible choices. KM330 has an AM tuner in addition to the FM tuner. Has a 3.15mp camera with LED flash and autfocus lens. But it has no woofer and has a smaller capacity battery. All in all, I think KM330 would be the better choice.

Hi all u GSM 200ians and the perspective buyers of India. 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. Go to this link- 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.
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.

physiovinayak, 03 Feb 2010Hi all u GSM 200ians and the perspective buyers of India. M... moreHi all my GM200 mates...
Please take the initiative and time to got to the link provide below by Vinayak and fill out the complaint form. Vinayak has prepared a beautiful list of the bugs and firmware glitches that needs to be rectified ASAP. As I've heard from the LG service center, the software development team centered at Bangalore is constantly on the work to come up with possible bug fixes. But it is purely based on customer feedback. So as GM200 owners, I believe it is our responsibility to show them what needs to be done so that they can come up with a possible solution atleast in the next update.
Vinayak has taken the initiative to come up with this idea and I just did my part by contributing to the common list of bugs that needs to be fixed. If you think there are more, please share with us so that it may reach the place where it rightfully should. For your convenience, you may copy and paste this onto the description column and submit it. If we act together, LG wouldn't be able to ignore it and would be forced to come up with a solution.
Let our words prevail so that our voices will be heard.
Regards
