LG LX350

This is where I got quite frustrated about this phone. At first I figured that since the phone is quite new, it would have advanced features as far as mobile->computer communication. Sadly, I was wrong. After much research it seems that the only things you can do with your phone (officialy that is, but read on...) [through your PC] is Contacts/Calendar management, Picture/Video Downloading [not uploading to your phone] and Phone as Modem. (Parenthetically, Sprint charges money for this service [i.e. to use your phone as a modem. It's not just minutes.], so call up and be sure about the charges!) 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...

I recently started up a brand new plan with Sprint, and as part of my plan I got a brand new LG LX-350 phone. I'll start off with my personal experiences with this type of phone. This should be a real help for anyone who is interested in buying a new phone, or anyone who already has a Lx-350 and wants to know how to get the best out of it. Here are some of the major advantages I noted so far: Brilliant color displays (both external and "regular") Pretty good battery life with moderate usage. It saves a lot of energy since the external display hides itself after 8 seconds (configurable). Has all the features you would want an up to date phone to have, like Games (J2ME) /Pics/Screensavers/Ringers... 1.3 Mega Pixel camera, for all your picture taking needs. Really clear!!! You can also adjust the resolution for space saving, etc... Bluetooth handset/vcard/vcalendar support [see disadvantages for details] Scheduler, Calander, and all those other useful tools. Messaging, wit...
