hi friends ,j got a big problem! Sometimes my Artemis doesn't reproduce sounds! j can hear only the phone calls. No music, no system sounds,no hands free calls were performed. J tried to make either soft and hard reset but the problem was the same! But j noticed that removing the battery for 5 or more hours the sounds returns, but only for few hours. Then sounds disappear again! Is there someone who have the same problem or suggest me the solution, because j change my TIM italian original rom whith a B&B rom and j think my guarantee become no more useful if j'd like to repair it!
Thanks !

So this is my first post in this forum so I 'll start with some naggin .
I am a proud owner of the lg ks20 which I absolutelly love.But its buggs are killing me.
First of all there is the free memory issue.I find it quite strange that a WM6 device with 128MB ram has only about 30MB free memory left.I mean cmon Vodafone and LG,we are talking about a huge 45 MB memory hole here.Any ideas on how to get rid of that?
Second serious issue with the is the lack of proper directdraw drivers.I hate the fact that I can not run any applications (with the exception of S2U2 whick works quite well) that use directdraw.Thats a great limitation to what one can do with this phone.
The hardware is all good,big enough ram,rom etc,top class CPU but the software sucks.
I know this is mainly an HTC forum,but I also know this is the right place to talk about WM phones when hacking and software development is concerned .
So is there any possibility to get things moving and resolve some of the phones bugs?
I have a KS20 too and would like to see some of that solved, too. But I guess we have to wait for the KS20 to be more common before there will be enough attention to get someone with enough knowledge to do something about it. I hope the English version of KS20 will come out soon and that it will get more people interested in this issue.

Did you install some strange software? OTherwise you should send your phone back to LG.
Battery always 100% and refuses to charge
Hi All,
I am new to the LG KS20.
It was working fine for 2 weeks, and now suddenly i find the battery status always showing 100%, and it just dies after a day of usage. Even worse, is that since it shows 100% always, it does not charge. When i try connecting the charger, it says battery is full, and the green LED light glows.
Can someone please help me out in resolving this issue.
Thanks you,
Jefferey Rayan
I have exactly the same problem - the 100% issue happend from one day to the other after about two weeks of use. The phone can then only be turned on by connecting it to the charger ( ac-adapter).
Some people in other forums claim it to a damaged battery, some to the 10a-ROM-version. It does not seem to be charged according to the message on the display and the greed led, but I am now about to check out if it really doesn't charge the phone. It turned it self off after about 1 minute of use yesterday, I connected it to the charger over night - today it functions properly so far...
So maybe it's "just" a matter of a wrong display message - in this case one would have to connect it to the charger every 2 - 3 days (guess the battery status) - not a very satisfactory solution, but maybe a solution until a new ROM arrives for non-branding devices.
Battery is dead - if it always shows 100%
I also have the 100% full loaded Problem!
It enoys me
LG has big Problems with their Batteries!
When you have that problem discribed above - your battery is the faulty crap.
Hardreset doesn`t help
So send your phone to LG to get a new battery,...
I am from Austria - LG Austria is not willed to help me - because LG Austria isn`t selling the KS20
The say like **** off - it`s not our problem
So I don`t know how I get a new battery.
My German Reseller told me that LG also has problems with delivering new batteries.
So a pice of crap - with Nokia they would never tell you - you don`t get support because you bought the mobile in Germany and not in Austria,...
Can anybody help me?
Shouldn`t LG Austria have to help me with my warranty?

I am also from Austria, bought the branding-free version at redcoon.at - they offer 2-year warranty, so I sent it back at the end of May. They probably sent it to LG Germany and it's still sitting there. I hope that according to my descriptions they will exchange the battery, otherwise I will be really pissed off. The repair takes 4 - 6 weeks they say. So I've bought a 400 EUR phone and have to stick with my old K750i for weeks, maybe for months.
I would not recommend anyone to buy this phone. It's on the market for 8 months now, no support, no drivers, no official updates. pure sh*t.
Anyone who wants a stylish mobile should go for the new HTC Diamond.
It's really worth the extra 100 EUR.
For those who have no warranty, I would recommend to plug it to the charger every 2 - 3 days until there are batteries available to buy directly from LG. Since everybody who got it's battery exchanged seems to be happy now, this should be the solution. IT DOES RECHARGE although it shows 100% full and the green led is on. I plugged it to the charger overnight and then it worked for about 3 days of extensive use without any shutdowns. So it's just the indicator that does not work.
Good luck!
The repair takes 4 - 6 weeks they say

i've got a MS25 Genius (american KS20 just without 3g, wifi, and VGA cam) from VIVO here in Brazil, and my battery stay always on 99%..
My clock is bugged too, always turns to the "Praga" clock when i sincronize with ativesync..
I'll not send my phone to LG Brasil! if they suyck in Europe they will suck a pretty much more in my ****ed up contry.. i don't want to stay 2 months without my phone..
Anyone's got a solution?
thank's!
I bought a new Battery - but not original LG.
Maybe a failure - because when I charge it - my phone turns off,...
The only advantage is it was half the price
I don`t knoe if LG has fixed the new batteries - because buying an original with the fuxing problem is sick

back to initial thread, I also have a KS20 and got some 34/37MB after soft reset with default LG app disabled...
it doesn't appear to be that much and normal...
like nstamoul said: "we have to think about this issue!"
KS20 massive destruction
Im using the KS20, And sure, Sometimes you stumble upon some buggs, But its not that bad. Best wm phone I've ever had atleast
I hope this is not a repost.
I've just bought the Diamond and I absolutely love it... I'm still a noobie with such phone and am learning to use it! it's a bit slow and I'm hoping you can tell me which program to download so I can make it that much faster.
The other problem I have is that every few minutes I try to make a call and the operator msg comes on and says that I do not have enough credits to make the call (I'm currently with Etisalat in Dubai). My phone is full on credits and as soon as I switch off the phone and on again I can make the call. This problem didn't start when I first bought the phone it started a few days ago...
Any suggestions guys? Thanks for your help... much appreciated
Hi everyone.
This is my first time in xda and i am here posting because i have a problem with my htc elfin.
I bought the phone from e-bay. The seller told me it was unlocked but in fact it wasnt. It was on Orange and i had to unlock it using a program i bought on ebay (latter i saw it for free online ). The program was designed for htc elf but i was told it would work. Well, in fact it did, but i have a problem... The phone easilly loses network and even when it was network it wont make or receive calls... Texting works ok... I really dont know what to do... Can anyone help me??
Best regards
Hi,
Well, I hate to break the news to you, but it does kind of sound like the phone may be broken... two things you could try anyways:
a) Perform a hard-reset: Switch off your phone, keep both phone buttons pressed (green&red) and switch it on. The out-of-box state will be restored and all your data will be erased (!). So backup your contacts before doing this.
If this does not work, then it is highly likely that your phone has some sort of hardware-issue. But you may still want to try
b) Upgrade the firmware of your phone (including the radio part!). Just look around in this forum, there's basically everything you need. Always pay close attention to the how-to-guides & make sure you proceed exactly as decribed there.
Good luck,
murosama
Hi
I tryed what you said. Hard reset made nothing but updating rom did... I his working better but not perfect... Maybe some antena problem dont you think?
Hi,
About a week ago I got my new HD2. It's taken me quite a while to set it up just how I like it so I don't really want to have to hard reset unless I really have to... but the problem is that people can't hear me during phone calls. I've tested it myself and when speaking on the phone the volume from my end is ridiculously quiet. I can still record my voice at regular volume and everybody tells me the sound was fine earlier on in the week so it's got to be something that I installed or a registry tweak I made but I don't know which one...
That's why I'm here asking for help. Has anyone else had a similar problem?
In my opinion it might be something to do with WOW SRS but I haven't tested that theory yet...
Well it wasn't WOW SRS. I've tried uninstalling it and it made no difference... Any suggestions would be welcome.
.. I really don't want to have to hard reset.
I've tried uninstalling a few more programs... Still no luck. Unless anyone's got any suggestions I think I'll have to hard reset and start over.
Well I finally decided to hard reset my phone... I did it expecting the problem to be solved but sadly it wasn't so it looks like I might have to send my phone back :'(
Not that it's much help to you now (sorry!) I've had similar experiences with my HD2 but a soft reset cured it for a while. I ended up hard resetting and reinstalling. The only advise I would have is to have a serial of backups to fall back on if you suddenly find a problem. I've learnt this over the years of winmo use.....
The hard reset hasn't helped. I've been reading about microphone AGC settings that can be deactivated but I can't find them in system settings where they should be so I haven't been able to try that yet...
Quick update.
If anyone seems to have the same problem you can probably save yourselves some time and just send the phone back... I've bee told that it's almost certainly hardware failure so it's been sent back for repairs/replacement.
And on a side note SFR are bastards. Don't expect a standard exchange (for a phone less than 7 days old) from a shop whatever the customer service hotline people tell you...
