LG F9100

I used to travel to and from Mexico fro work/leisure, so at the time it made sense to have a phone from Telcel. I have really gotten comfortable with the phone (LG F9100). Now I don't travel so much, and have Cingular as a provider. I got an unlock code for the phone, so now I can SMS and make phonecalls, but cannot configure the IP address for Cingular. Can anyone help me?

😲 Hey, i bought my 9100 on ebay... i love it however the previous owner deleted the instant messaging software such as aim yahoo and icq... i called cingular and those ppl cant seem to figger it out... does any one know of a source where i could download it from? thanks please email me at drdesi07@yahoo.com if you guy know any ways...

Hi, I am thinking of buying this phone on ebay. If I use it with T-Mobile, will I be able to use the T-zones web service on this phone?

Anyone know how I can download midlets to the lg f9100 using the data cable? Or what tools I can use? I have tried the LG F9100 USB-Handset Manager and the LG GSM utilities but seems like they only allow downloads/syncing such as ringtones/melodies/Phonebook/Schedule/Memo. Any clue would be much appreciated. Thank you.

I tested this phone out for about a week or so and i didn't have any problems with the door not latching but i've heard alot of people complain about it. Is this a HUGE problem? I really want this phone but i won't buy it if it has this problem.So has anyone else had this problem?

I have the LG F9100 and like it. I do have a question that I can't figure out on the phone

Cingular is my provider and right in the middle of the display it says "Cingular". This covers up my background and I can't figure out how to get rid of it. I've dug through the menus and can't find it. Any Ideas?

Anyone notice that when you use the IM on this phone- there seems to be a limit of 30 buddies? Is that a Cingular limitation or an LG limitation? 😕

There doesn't appear to be a "Vibrate" only Audio setting for this phone. ☹️ That's pretty weird- and no "silent" feature only. Why? 🙄

Ok, we all know this is just a regular phone... sorry no camera or bluetooth. After all is said and done is it a quality phone? how does it feel? will it open when i dont want it to? does it seem to big?

if anyone has had a chance to see one yet, of course...

I was just playing with this phone at Cingular. It feels cheap and low quality. Nokia and Motorola make much better quality phones.

How many polyphonic channels does this phone have?

Bluetooth would have saved this phone. Many business professionals are not allowed a camera on their phone but want bluetooth. This could have been the perfect combo.

Can anyone that has used or is currently using this phone tell me how the battery life is?

So my Yahoo messenger on the 9100 won't connect to Yahoo. It just times out. My AOL works just fine. Don't use ICQ so haven't tried it and I can't find any info on the CW client or the Future client.

It's not a huge thing for me because I use the WAP Messenger when I want to use it but was just trying it out and I've been getting this message for two days. Of course, Cingular is clueless about the issue.

Any ideas?

I'm going to stop baggin' on the self-proclaimed "pimp" for a little while & talk about the PHONE. After all, that's what this forum's SUPPOSED to be for anyway.... 🙂

My store got a couple of these things in a few days ago (AT LAST). It took way too dang long if you ask me. I must say that I am impressed with the phone. I don't typically go for LG's but this one seems ok. I don't care about BT or cameras since I'm getting a S710a whenever they come out. I'm tired of hearing people moan about the lack of such features. The speakerphone is good quality - not quite what I'd expect of an SE, but definately better than a Nokia or Moto. The display is really sharp looking - nice & bright too. Factory installed ringtones suck, as the...

You can't use the keyboard for text entry on the Internet? I just can't believe it. I keep thinking I'm doing something wrong. it works for the address book and for text messages. It works for the IM clients but not for the Internet?

If I'm doing something wrong someone please tell me what. Everytime I open this thing while on the Internet I get "close slider" and there is no way to access the Internet from the menus when the slide is open.

This is a limitation that might actually cause me to give it up for the a630. The no Bluetooth was disappointing but I can live without it but a castrated keyboard? I'll see over the next few weeks.

😉 well i too being a pimp an all work in sales and i say if you cant beat or understand em join em and as soon as this phone hits my store i will be sure to sell it as quick as it comes in, because i am a cell phone pimp i gotta go with what sells not what i personally like and its kinda like selling out but sh*t i am a pimp i need the money

😉 I myself am a pimp and i to enjoy the conventional an nonconvention use of cellphones ogo's and pdas i personall cant stand this thing it is ugly and over priced and for a pimp that is a big no no us pimps do nuthing ugly or over priced we do do qaulity that is why i roll with a moto mpx you know that new hot **** most of you wouldnt understand but why would i give up my voice capablities and bluetooth for a kids device because that is what it is and even if you have no means of getting the mpx like a pimp can you can still enjoy the luxuries of an a630 which is a wiser choice money wise and pimp wise cause these hoes want nuthing to do with a boy they want a man and an LG is a boys phone **** an ogo would be better than this thing a...
