Default Anyone got a LG Chocolate?

Anyone out there got a LG Chocolate cell phone? Here is a C5 Z06 wall paper that I made for my phone. I love this phone! The images are crystal clear, very nice looking display and phone. Love the MP3 player while mowing the yard! The best wallpaper size for the phone that I have found is 240x275 pixels. You can put the wallpapers in the phone using the optional MicroSD card or the USB cable supplied with the optional Music Essentials Kit. Everything is optional at Verizon! I did find a 256MB MicroSD card with full size SD adaptor at Wal-Mart for $18 and change.



The wallpaper image that fits right in the phone:


And a couple of test and template images I made to figure out the placements of things on the screen. The first image is a 10 pixel by 10 pixel grid, you can use a magnifying glass to count the pixels and move you content exactly where you want it on the screen. The second one is a template showing the button placement on the screen (the buttons can be turned off which is the way I have mine), you can overlay this image on your image and see which part of your image the buttons will cover. These are designed for the Rock-N-Roll theme on the phone.

Yeah I got one too. I love the GPS feature, but it sucks that it uses the cell phone towers to determine your location. It also uses your airtime whenever it needs to recalculate the route. The MP3 Player is the best I've ever seen on a phone.

Just curious, how big is the camera on the Chocolate??? I heard a rumor that it's a 3.7mp, but haven't been able to confirm.

Sorry guys! I never even thought of LG Motorsports. Good thing I didn't put the phones model number in the title. Lou would have been flooded with calls for specs on the new LG VX8500!

It has a 1.3 mega pixel camera, no flash/light. Camera quality is fair. I guess it is pretty good for a fixed focus 1/16" lens camera.
