Enjoy!
The checkbox is the settings section and the ? is the help section.

I have an 8550. It will not allow me to go to Get It Now #16. Any help?

Hey Guys,

I'm having similar issue. I am able to get into the "hidden" menu but none of the settings in editable and there is no #16.

Any ideas what am I missing?

Thanks

Is there a way to set the Chocklate's clock to military time? I do have a bluetooth conection to my laptop if that makes it at all simpler?

I'm just a dumb newbie.....but could somebody please tell me the real advantage to turning off EVDO?

Mike Fitz · 01-31-2008, 04:10 PM

Ok well I changed to the 1x setting by turning of EVDO, but then I couldnt send or receive texts, so I turned it back, and I still cant... Im so lost, and kind of pissed if my phone wont start working.

Please help

Hello
I was wondering if you would have any recommendations to fix something on my LG KG800.
When I send or receive picture messages it makes the size really small. Is there a way to change the sizing?

Hi, I just bought a LG 8500 Chocolate cell phone (from TELUS) and that thing "Menu + 0" does not work, it just don't do anything.

I tried the ##PROGRAMS8550 thing but it didn't work neither.

Thanks for helping out

I'm not a 8500 owner myself (I have a 8550), but there is two things you can try.
1. Go to the menu, then wait a little bit. Press 0. (Passcode is 000000)
2. Try doing ##PROGRAM8500 (no S (no double 5)) (Passcode is 000000)
If neither of these work PM me and I'll try to figure it out.

hi, i have an LG chocolate 8500 and everytime i turn it on it sais "battery is too hot remove battery!" then it sais "battery is too hot -turning off-" then it turns off.

blackspot007 · 04-20-2008, 03:29 PM

your battery is probably too hot. try a new one

I have a feeling most of this won't work for us Telus users. It seems like these are all ways to hack Verizon phones. Oh well XD
