Wow I've Really Come a Long Way

I am currently on my way to completely hacking the way the LG LX350 adds/stores/deletes: Games, Apps, Ringers, and Screensavers.

This allows me to pretend the phone installed something. How to remove entries and "notify" the phone about that [equivalent to uninstalling] How to add ringers and images [and screensavers which is basically interchangable with images to the phone (drawback: I have not completed ringers yet...

The official programs for doing these types of things cost money... Usually in the $25 range + cable fees. First of all you should know that non-OEM cables work just as well as regular. That should save about $10. For non-OEM you will probably have to go to ebay [See Right - Side bar]... Here, however, is the "clincher": It is possible to do a lot more with the phone by usin...
