QUOTE(louisvuitton @ Dec 30 2008, 10:46 PM) I attach here a picture taken with the phone. Resolution : 3.0 megapixels Location : Sunway Pyramid, CNY Stalls Date : 30/12/08 Note : This pic is not to show-off supremacy of the camera or whatever, just a sample of the kinda pictures taken by the phone. If u want the best pics, I suggest u use a digital camera. [attachmentid=740083] lol i'm about to post pictures taken using cookie. anyway, here are mine. outdoor:
indoor:
pictures are great when taken outdoor because of the light. indoor quality i would say when there's no light.. two thumbs down. (i hate those lines..) This post has been edited by xxx306: Dec 30 2008, 10:56 PM

I don't get it sry... when u look at the cat picture close-up...u will see fine lines (horizontal tiny lines)... this is to do with the lighting, need to trial and error and also maybe add lighting to make the picture more acceptable. in camera terms, the sensitivity to light (ISO) is low for camera phones. normal digital cameras now have at least ISO 800 or 1600 or 3200 etc etc means they can capture more light of the sorroundings.. kekekeke i think i'm making it more confusing. anyway, as long as there's normal lighting and not too dark, the phone still can take acceptable quality pictures

calibration is something like alignment for screen.. the accuration of the touch sensitive will gone sometimes.. u have to align the screen to get it back this is wat so called calibration..  mostly found on pda fyi, the cookie screen is harder than viewty, the surface is like can last longer.. well.. we can see lg had improved a lot for their all new UI.. it is fun to play with especially the home screen and the motion sensor game. previous model prada,viewty was not that perfect though.. lg has done a good improvement on cookie.. the most impressive part is the photo viewing is more faster n stable than viewty.. and the phone doesnt seem to be lag when load the music player n data on memory card

my cookie restart again last night. sigh. really annoying but i love my cookie very much. to cookie users who suffers the reboot/restart problem, let's try this: (taken from gsmarena)QUOTE These is just based from experiments.
this is what i actually do. i'm not a technician but im just used to troubleshooting tech stuffs. all i do was based on experiments. dont blame me for it's not working. Do it for your own risk. (It will delete all your files, all of them inc. the SIM. for a freshly baked cookie)
1st. BE SURE TO BACK UP ALL FILES! including CONTACTS,CALENDAR,ETC. inc SIM(i got them backed up with MS outlook. BTW i never used outlook before wahehe but it is so useful in backuping contacts.)
>Set Primary Storage to External Memory >Set Camera/Video to External Memory >Set Sound Recording to External Memory >Go to phone settings>memory manager: Clear USER MEMORY,HANDSET RESERVED MEMORY, and SIM MEMORY (yes i also did this. :c) then >Format EXTERNAL MEMORY via Phone, not via PC >Reboot the phone (Freshly baked cookie) then. >Sync the phone with MS outlook via phone's software to send all of the contacts to the phone.
That's it. I got my phone working 7 days now. no reboot/reset.
** Something i missed. I did not do this part in my case, because im not using Muvee Studio. But if u like Set it like the others. >Set Muvee Studio to External Memory i hope it works.

I have put some document into the phone, e.g. doc, xls and txt. The file I copy into it is around 1 page length (A4). What I find out is that it is very hard to move it to the lower part of the page. When using the "stick", it seem like I'm going to "dig" into the screen protector. Another way is using my thumb to move it, but it still look very hard to move also.
Anyone facing this issue? The method of moving the document (up or down) can be done via touch screen only?
