Kf900 Prada Ii Unlocked Phone With Camera With Flash Full Touch Screen Slide Out Qwerty Keypad Ms Office Pdf Text Reading International Version With No Warranty Black

The first couple of weeks with this phone were absolutely frustrating. The response was incredibly slow and it had a knack for freezing. After owning it for the second week, it turned off and was unable to get past the splash screen. What made this so frustrating was how badly I wanted the phone to work. The phone is absolutely gorgeous and I could tell I would end up keeping it for years to come. I searched everywhere for how to fix the problem without sending the phone back. Apparently, this phone's original firmware is very dodgy. If you're interested in getting this phone, I suggest the first thing you do is update the firmware. Here's how I did it. what you need: - LGMulti v3.0 + kf900 DLL here: RapidShare: 1-CLICK Web hosting - Easy Filehosting (refer to[...] for updated link) - firmware here: RapidShare: 1-CLICK Web hosting - Easy Filehosting (check in the firmware list for the latest) - USB data cable - your bricked (stucking on ***** logo) KF900 remove the battery open USBMap and select infiniteon, then "mapping start", and connect your mobile (WITHOUT BATTERY). not sure if I did it in emergency mode or not, anyway if doesn't work simply press send (green) and function (C) buttons togethere while plugging the usb cable. once the computer has recognized your mobile click save&exit. now open GSMulti and choose the right DLL and .bin files you've just downloaded. click start and wait a while.. first it didn't recognize my mobile.. I tried unplugging and plugging it in again while pressing send and func buttons and after a while it started uploading the firmware to the mobile. After updating the firmware I found the phone to be absolutely amazing! It's exactly what I was hoping it would be. Sure, it's a little dated in comparison to the newest iPhone etc., but it's extremely attractive and the slide out qwerty keyboard is a huge bonus! After the firmware update I found it to get better usb reception, it works a hell of a lot faster, and never locks up. What I like most about it; -Despite other reviewers, I find the build quality incredible. It feels like something Prada would make. -It's very attractive, especially with the black leather case. Get yourself screen covers to keep it looking mint. -In comparison to the Prada I, the added multi-tasking, better network, wifi access, qwerty keyboard, widgets, and even the fact that I can access all of my media from one button are major upgrades. Access to media from one button sounds small, but it was rather annoying to go to media> external storage> media> images just to look at the photos you put on your micro card. Well, at least for me it was, which I change the wallpaper on almost a daily basis. Also, on the Prada I you couldn't play an album in the media player from your external storage. You had to add songs to a playlist first. Again, I just find the Prada II leaps and bounds above its predecessor. -The images, videos, and music files already installed on the phone are actually quite nice. I found the preinstalled ringtones very fitting of the phone, and decided to use those over ones I personally downloaded. Even the "sleep-mode" slideshow you see when the phone is locked is really quite nice. -One of the reasons I bought not only the Prada II, but Prada I, and the LG Vu over the iPhone is because of the UI. On all three, the interface is quite attractive, and the only improve on it more with the Prada II. I'm incredibly happy with this phone, and I certainly suggest anyone looking for a fashion phone to try it out. I've already put money aside for the Prada Link just because of how happy I am with this phone. However, it's definitely a must to update the firmware as soon as you get it.

This phone is amazing! I received it brand new. No scratches or old information uploaded to the device. The full keyboard is a PLUS and having a PRADA phone is just SEXY ;-) My service is with T-mobile and I was able to sync my contact information and social media pages just fine! Definite 5 stars

*excellent stylish phone *touch screen technology with slide out full qwerty button keyboard *good battery life *many useful applications *5 mega pixel camera *this purchase was a replacement of my first prada II cell phone, which lasted about a year (i'm content if a cell phone lasts a year)

I bought the original LG Prada (KE850) as a birthday gift my wife last year. It was a very fashionable and stylish looking phone, which my wife (in her early 30s) loves, but the reception and the missing 850Mhz band left something to be desired on the AT&T wireless network, which is reasonable as this phone was never intended for the US market. It would probably work better on T-Mobile US network (since they don't use 850 band). We ended up returning it because of that. Mind you, the software on this phone is very simple and basic, which is perfect for my wife since she hardly text and rarely used anything else. I was excited when the Prada II is announced and it comes with quad-band this time (however, 3G would only work outside of US)! However, I was disappointed as soon as I found out they decided to add a slide-out QWERTY keyboard. Seeing in person (at CES) how much thicker the new phone turned me off. It has gained 40% in thickness (16.8mm versus the older but slimmer 12mm Prada I) and slightly taller than the old phone (quarter inch). The "Ooze" factor of the original Prada phone is gone. This new phone would be a good choice for these who texts often but doesn't want another me-too looking phones. However, for my wife, the weight-gain is a deal-breaker. UPDATE: I did ended up buying this phone for my wife to use on AT&T wireless, as she doesn't have data plan and don't want to pay an extra $30/month, the iPhone doesn't make sense. This works well for her since she only calls and texts, but due to reception and call dropping issues (which might just be AT&T), we are shopping for a new replacement phone.

I used this phone for a few months. It looked good and the physical keyboard was very useful. Unfortunately the phone (OS) crashed very often what became extremely annoying. After the OS crash you have to remove the battery and restart the system. Once I overslept and was late to work just because the system froze in the night and the alarm didn't ring in the morning. What is really unbelievable is the fact there is no firmware update available for this model. It just shows how much LG cares about the functionality and reliability of their devices and customers' satisfaction. I dumped this phone and got myself a cool new Android handset which most importantly just works. I'm very disappointed with LG and will stay away from their products. I sincerely advise you the same.
