Is there a better media player I can download? I have bought a conversion kit off ebay so I can plug in normal headphones. However, the media player just lists ALL music files and I would like to play albums by folder. If I play mp3s through the file manager they simply stop after playing a single track.

I realise playlists can be used for this but it's a pain - any suggestions?

no. Apparently the K750 java platform implementation prevents a viable java media player being designed.

You could always create a new playlist in the media player so that only the lists you want play, also if you check the boxes in the order you want your music to play in ie, album list, then you will be sorted.

ahh thats such a damn shame about no java media players!

I have recently bought a 1gb memory card for my K750i and i like to watch television episodes (mainly lost at the minute, i'm hooked) on my phone. One downside I have found is that there is no way to save the progress you are at and the fast forward is really slow! This means if i wanted to watch a whole movie i would have to break it down into chapters, which may become tedious. Does anyone know of a way to bookmark a video so you can pick it up where it last finished, or if there is a way to install a new media player?

If you plug in handsfree and press "play" on the side of your fone then the video/mp3 will start from where you left it.

Button on the headset cable is to answer incoming calls (then hangup when you're in a call)

if you go into file manager you can play your MP3's by folder, which in most cases in albums. That way is relativly easier if you have issues with media player
