Something else that I notice is that there are no manufacture page about LG U8110, maybe im wrong. anyway is there any other page for LG U8110 fansite or so?

On my LG 8110, on either the small screen or the main screen, next to the icon that tells me what sound profile is active, a little "R" in a box appears, then disappears, then re-appears! Anyone know what it is?

ok its just me in this thread then. i'll ask anyway.
When someone sends a text message, the phone CHANGES it. Instead of saying "hello how are you" it says something like "guidwo der sen oiu" i checked the language settings, is it maybe something to do with the data settings? Or maybe i've got one of these "sms viruses" someone was talking about in another thread? I can read any of my text messages and its damn frustrating.

Gah, i thought i had some help there!

I found out what the little "R" means...it means Roaming. I dont know why it tells you when your roaming or not, it seems a pointless thing to me.

I was playing around with my LG 8110's camera functions, then my p900's, and the difference is incredible! Everyone knows that the p900 camera isnt the best, but, considering the LG U8110 is just a basic phone, the camera is fabulous! Its a lot clearer, crisper, has a LOT more options and settings, and its a lot smoother too. I then compared the LG camera to my brothers k700i, and, lo and behold, its better than that too! In all, its just an average phone (the menu system and keypad are great, btw) but the camera really is something special, considering the phone is a fairly basic, cheap model. It's even more surprising considering its one of those rotating ones like samsungs have, and i've never trusted them to be any good. LG sure have done their research with regard to cameras, i'm willing to bet they will be up there with the best phones around in a year or two.

Actully, I beg to differ.
I bought this months issue of W@t Mob and they did a camera test on all of the phones and out of about 12 they cam 11th. Rubbish! Pixelated and scroggy. The winner for a MP phone was the 7610 and the winner or a non MP was the Sendo X

What were the other phones tested? I think its a good camera, certainly better than the p900, and better than the k700i too.
EDIT: @jontyf, are you sure its the same phone we're talking about? in the other thread you called it the 81010, whereas the model is in fact the U8110.

The little R is because you're in an area with no 3 coverage so it roams to o2 instead.
I love my LG but will anyone ever write a driver to allow it to be used as a webcam.
I don't know why the developer didnt think of it cos being clamshell and having a reversible camera it would be ideal, my m8's nokia will work as a webcam but he has to lean it against his monitor and it keeps falling over.
It seems strange to me when it has such good features they didnt chuck that in too, but then the new slidy samsung that ppl think is so cool has no way to get the pics off the phone cept by pic msg'ing... oh how i laughed when a m8 bought one and found out later that he couldn't transfer the pics off at all.

can u use the infred on the fone and send a pic to a p900 or hav they disamble it like all the nokia 40 serise?
Posted by jontyf
Yes we are talking about the same phone (sometimes I get the name wrong). The phones tested were 7610, sendo x, k700i, v80, sagem summink, s65, panasonic one, I cant remember the rest. But the 8110's camera wasn't the best.

@colster: couldnt agree with you more, webcam function would have been great! the only thing missing from the LG is bluetooth, apart from that its great.
@jontyf: Well i must disagree with the reviewer, i find the LG camera a joy to use. Everyone is entiltled to their opinion, i suppose

Connectivity is one of the only downfalls on this phone.
Too bad no one sells it sim-free
