I got this phone a few days ago, and plan on making a review very soon. If there are any specific questions before that, I will try my best to answer. Also: hi, I'm new here.

Hi, I would like to know if there's any way to root this phone (z4root didn't work). What I'm trying to do is to make it download and install by default on the sd card the apps from android market. Thanks.

 

[Tox!c]

I don't know, but I would like to try, because it seems to me that it's too slow for a 600 MHz phone.

do you own it? could you please post results here if you manage to root it?

Also, did you find any official website about the phone from LG? All I can find is Kazakhstan or something like that.

Does the LG PC suite work with any phone, or do you have to get a specific version of the software for that specific phone?

Thx,

Tox

The one linked here works fine on my P350.

Dobrodošao!

How slow is it? Does it affect everything, or just some applications, like browser?

How is the keyboard like? Is it difficult to use, since the screen is small?

And how does it support flash? I've read that it does support flash, but partially.

My girlfriend needs an affordable Android phone 'till she gets more money for something better, since her HTC Desire Z was stolen, so we're looking for the best option.

hi,

i just got my first android phone. the lg p350.
i am looking for an app where i can download images from facebook from my frieds albums.
bad side of p350: it seems to have a multi touch issue.
me and a friend got the same phone and we did a multi touch test and it seems not to respnd properly but for it's price it's good enough.

Dobar Dan!

go to touch.facebook.com and hold your finger on the pic. then select save.

What kind of issue, it works fine here.. zooming in and out and all that.

It has it's moments, it surprises me in one, and annoys the hell out of me in the other. Like, when you exit an app, you have to wait for 30 seconds sometimes for it to load all of the widgets on the homescreen.
The browser is pretty slow, but opera loading time is ultra fast.

Well, that's expected from a phone with 600MHz... It's same with mine.

Well, I've got pretty big fingers and it works fine

Then I suppose that there should be no problems with it.

That's true. If you visit a website with flash, sometimes you get an error - plugin missing, sometimes it loads. The youtube app works very well, except for the "not available on mobile" videos.

Oh. I thought that some things are working always, and some are not. Like, youtube videos work, but some other things don't, for example.

This could be the solution, but my biggest downsides of this phone are:

THE BATTERY - it lasts for 12 hours for me, max. (!?)

Mine is even worse. XD

The screen - it's scratched, by a lighter in my pocket.. so i guess there's no protective layer there.

Well, my SE has a "protective layer", but it still got scratched, even though I keep it in a pocket that doesn't contain anything, so it wouldn't get scratched... but still it got scratched somehow. -.-

The LG software - Just... TERRIBLE.

Avoidable.

All in all, it could be a great phone if I found a way to root it, and for now.. It's just good.

Hope that helps.

It does help, indeed. Hvala lijepa na odgovoru.

well, this is kind of a "how fast does a car go" question, but here goes nothing:

If you connect to a WiFi network it's a/b/g, and if you use any 3G network it's a ~3mbit link. Keep in mind that the screen resolution is smaller than most androids and that it doesn't support flash; so the surfing experience is somewhat different than on most android phones.

I went to the market and there were only 2 categories:top free and just in.Should there be paid apps too? please help

 

[Tox!c]

There should also be "my apps", "games" and "apps". under "apps" you have categories and you can buy stuff. also, you can just tap the search button and search for anything you want.

The browser is pretty slow, but opera loading time is ultra fast. Also, you can't use SkyFire. Don't know why.

I have the same phone and the same problem...
When you have about 20 Mb free memory then you have to wait 30 sec to load widgets. With app "Super Box" you can see how many free memory do you have and if it's low try to kill the running apps.
And if memory is still low then reboot phone, that should do the trick

Was the phone loaded with Android 2.2 Froyo or Android 2.3 Gingerbread?

My LG P350 is pissing me off. Everytime I'll open the gallery, it will take minutes to display the pictures. Does anybody know what could be the reason for this? thanks..

Download QuickPic and use it instead of the Gallery APP. This helped me. It's ultra fast and stable but doesn't load online stuff (like PICASA uploads ... like the gallery does)

 

[kekio84]

I rooted my phone with gingerbreak. Now i need to SIM unlock it somehow.Does anyone know how to do that? free offcourse

Thanks for th tip maneff! The only app thar slows my p350 down is "Lookout" anti virus, I disable it when I dont require, otherwise very pleased with unit especially the compactness!
Screen has protective layer which can be peeled off, I think it affects response. keeping it on until it gets to scratched like the rest of the phone will over time.
