WMA Transfer
Sorry for the newbie question, but do you HAVE to use the Music Essentials kit software and cable to transfer music to the phone? I tried clicking and dragging WMAs into my songs folder on the phone..but it kept saying it could not play. If I cant transfer my existing music to the phone, I might as well not have it. Thanks
I recently had some trouble transferring music to my LG Chocolate.
First of all I re-formatted the MicroSD card in the phone. Settings-memory-card-options-format. Lock code is usually last 4 digits of cell number. This will erase ALL items from t...

I had the same problem, what I found was the easeiest to do is to copy the songs to a cd and then move it to Windows Media Player which will automatcally convert it to WMA format, then I put my card into my computer and drug the new songs over to the ...

What would be a better phone.. This phone or the razr 2 v9m? Those are the two I'm, thinking of if the razr 2 is out in the next month.. let me know what you think... 🙄
The RAZR2 perhaps but wait until they announce the Samsung SCH-u900

WhenChargingA990
Whenever i am charging my A990, the backlight stays lit the entire time it is plugged in. Is this normal or am i missing a setting or something/somewhere? Thanks in advance
Mine does the same thing, I think that it was just a design flaw because I hate it when I am trying to go to sleep and it is blaring.
actually there is a way to make it dim. I did it to mine, but it was months ago and don't remember how I did it, but there's hope. Maybe just check the manual again.

2GB Sandisk MicroSD card
Maybe this is old news, but I just noticed Amazon is selling the 2GB MicroSD card for $30. Wow - I paid $90 at a Verizon store for mine plus around $20 for the USB adapter. It's the best thing I ever got for this phone.
FYI - Amazon also has the card with adapter for $44. Save your money and avoid those thieves at Verizon...
Hi,
I was under the impression that the 1 GB card was the highest card this phone will take. Does the 2 GB card work as well. I am waiting for the phone price to drop this spring before I buy one.

Mobile IM Help
I just bought this phone, and its amazing. The one problem I am having is that I signed into mobile IM this afternoon, and now, despite the fact that I am signed off from aim on my phone, I keep getting the messages there. I am afraid its eating my text messages.
On my last phone, vx8100, this would only happen when was explicitly signed into aim. I specifically went back onto aim and clicked "sign off and exit" but no luck, I still keep getting the notifications each time someone sends me an im.
What can I do to turn this feature off?
Thanks for your help
