      Battery won't hold charge>...My Son has had the KG800 for just over one year, He now tells me the battery runs flat in 4 hours after it takes it off the charger. I have purchased him a new battery $27AUS - & have charge it for 16 hours overnight- still no change. The battery lasts no longer thank 3-5 hours even with minimal phone use. Anyone know what the problem is??

            I have a Lg 800 Chocolate and its a nice phone in a way, there is some problems though, It can only take mxit up untill V.5.3 and that sux! That gold plated stuff for you Sim card gets messed up(says insert sim card) and I have my phone for 2 years now and its been in for repairs like 3 or 4 times now. This phone also have a problem with its software or something, it freezes and it switching on and off by itself. Futher on, the phone is cool.

              Had the phone for about 3 years, took great care with it and it held out okay. Dictionary tends to forget saved and commonly used words. Will randomly but rarely switch off. Have two dead pixels on the screen. Menu can be a little slow and similar frustration is experienced with the touch pad. Not a durable phone, is wearing on the back and the chrome ring is flaking away. No speakerphone a downside. Small internal memory. Slider starts to scratch. I did like the size of the phone, very sexy attractive phone, however the buttons are losing their sensitivity and need to press with force. Easily navigated menu and neatly organised home screen.

                      My phome did not come with a software CD. I would like to be able to download and save my pictures directly to my PC but cannot. My phone company wants me to download to their site first and then I can save on my PC after I upload to their site. The catch is that it cost me 50 cents for evry picture. My question is there a site where i can download sotware so I can use my USB cable. It came with the USB cable but any good to me without software.
                      Thanks
                      Ivan

                          wow, it looks like this phone is not very popular,
                          i must say i really liked this phone but it is easy to break and get scratches on it, one drop and you will probably see a mark.
                          i highly recommend that you dont drop the phone more than once because i did that and now the screen on my phone doesnt work all it does is go white when you turn it on.
                          beside's from that i reckon it was a fairly good phone.
