By the way, I'm from the Philippines, and I don't know anything about the "Orange World" thing.

This phone is totally useless. I have had it around 9 months. The only thing it does OK is take photos. The touch screen, e-mails, promised connectivity, etc etc etc are all hopelessly poor or just don't work, it is such a compromise. Almost anything else would be better

Got this phone today - my main gripe so far (not having had it long enough to know about battery issues) is that the alert volume, even on maximum, is practically inaudible (although the tones when it switches on are perfectly loud). I think I may just have been unlucky with the handset I got, but does anyone have any experience of this?

Had this phone for about a week now and I absolutely love it . The battery lasts a decent amount of time as long as you make sure the wifi is switched off. To get the browser to work without you being charged for Wi-fi, you need to make sure that your network is selected on 'Manual' not 'Automatic'.

Got this phone what 2 weeks ago, having the same problem with the battery first of all, it lasts like no amount of time and really annoying me now. Can anyone tell me whether switching it off at night will save some of the battery? And I cant remember who said it but someone said Orange said to charge it for 16hrs then run it down then charge it again? Did it work? Any other tips to do with the battery would really be apreciated. Also to do with the wifi, I was told in the shop it had wifi thought great then took it home and tried to set it up, it could find the hub but wouldnt connect, 2hours on the phone to Orange later, they finally admit there is no wifi its UMA or something. Had an argument with them saying I was obviously miss sold the phone. They told me to ring the branch I got it from and complain. Thats great, any tips with the battery like I say would be great thank you

And as a follow up to both Jan 16th and Feb 18th above, my third GT505 failed through the same software problems. Orange finally replaced with a Samsung Jet... So far so good!

To download Operamini, go to 'enter URL' on your phones browser and type in: operamini.com. Once you're on the opera page it automaticaly detects your phone and which version of operamini to install.The rest is really simple, 2 clicks and it's downloaded!

Hi! I'm not very good in computer science. Can you explain me how "can I install Opera browser" on my LG GT 505? Thank you so much.
