Greetz,
My first post here. Just got the "L704i Chocolate" which seems to be very similar to the "VX8500 Chocolate" and the Australian version KG800.
I live in Japan and I can't seem to get any software other than the (very, very lame) DoCoMo software to connect to my new phone.
I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions or ideas.
I've got a USB cable and have tried every possible LG phone in BitPim with no luck.
I've also just discovered that for some insane reason, the Japan model of this phone does NOT allow MP3 playback!!! After three days of continuous attempts, the ONLY format of audio file I have been able to assign to the ringtone is .mid ?!?! YUCK! I have tried almost every possible quality of .mmf, .wav, .aac, .amr, and .3gp. (I can actually play .mp4 and .3gp, but they cannot be assigned as ring tones.)
Seems so strange that they've made such a HUGE restriction on these formats compared to the rest of the world.
Please and thanks for any advice or suggestions!
Edit: Just tried Australia's software for the KG800 (which is also a "Chocolate" model) - no joy
