Lg VX8100

I just got m 8100 and i want music on my miniSD card to play on my phone. I guess the files can't be mp3 but qcp or mid files. I am wondering which format is better and how to conver mp3 to qcp. I am looking for a progam that i can download to turn mp3 to qcp. well thanks.

all you have to do is at the end of the file put .mid

I have tried to rename an mp3 file to .mid and it just does not work. When using BitPim to load the file, the system automatically renames it, adding the .mp3 extension back to the file. For example, if I rename a file from [filename].mp3 to [filename].mid, the program renames it to [filename].mid.mp3

Is there any way around this? I sure hope so. A 512 meg memory card, and I can't use it...

thanks!

The handset recognizes .mp3 format or it won't work.

The Fix is quite easy if you are running Windows. I personally am using Windows XP Pro SP2. Open up your My Documents folder > Hit tools > Folder Options > View > Uncheck "Hide extensions for known file types" > Hit apply. Now locate the mp3 you want to rename and change the .mp3 at the end of its filename to .mid or .qcp It's that easy. You can also take your phone to Verizon now and have the ROM flashed and get the new operating system which allows playback of mp3's using the mp3 player in the phone (buttons on front of 8100 now work). Hope I helped.

ok i did the same thign on my vx6000 now i have the 8100.. but here is how u convert from mp3 to qcp
http://home.nycap.rr.com/stopcbt/vx6000.html

i bought an rd6000 which is an indian of the VX6000 from LG. it plays the mp3 files directly . there is no need to change it to qcp or .mid to play it...

BUT I WONDER IF THERE ARE any SD CARDS COMPATIBLE WITH THE RD6000 / VX6000 ???? plz reply to me at redhotrod04@yahoo.co.in THANX!!!

i have the link cable and stuff but how the hell do i add music to my version lg vx8100 cellphone PLZ help me e mail me at bigpimpin8564@aol.com

Ok, so i have purchased my USB cable to hook up my phone to my computer, and i have a memory card, but i need help on how to get mp3's on my phone. i tried to connect the cord into my phone and computer, but my computer does not recognize that there is anything plugged in. And, i have no idea what to do after that. Please help! email me at qtpykell@yahoo.com

1st..make sure you installed the driver into ur cp, for it to recognize the added cable...if you have to if ur window version does not recognize the port, you will have to use the add hardware option in your cp to look for the cable. once you find the hardware option that you are trying to install, you will have to manually install the driver for that hardware. once the cp recognized the new hardware, you will need to install the software or program that came with ur cable, usually a disket or cd. once the software is installed, you will have to configure the software to the right port where the cable is plugged into. it will take a little time if you are not cp knowledgable. the idea is the driver and software have to be installed.... good luck

How do i customize my ringers with mp3 or mid or qcp files?

i just got the lg vx8100 and then got the mini sd card 256 mb. i need help to listen to my music on my phone how do i convert the mp3 to the .mid or qcp so it can go on my phone .please email me at lzevrmor@aol.com

Simplest Way to Enable Multimedia Features:
- buy a miniSD card 128MB or more (256 was $30 at BestBuy)
- buy a USB card reader (to attach to your computer - this way mac or pc) - I bought MobileMate SD+ ($22+ at Best Buy)

Enabling MP3

Menu
0
000000 (when the ?????? is displayed)
11 (Music Settings)
MP3 Enable

Formatting mini-SD (do this before placing card in any other devices)

Settings and Tools
4 (System)
4 (Manage Memory)
3 (Card Memory)
Options (lower right corner)
1 (Format Card) - your password is last 4 digits of your phone number

Enabling PLAY Shortcut Key (front panel)

Settings and Tools
1 (Tools)
3 (Shortcut Key)
2 (Play Key)
My MP3s

Ok. That is it. Now remove your mini-SD card, insert into your favoriate card reader and PC. Copy the MP3 files to the MY_MP3 folder on the mini-SD card. Insert mini-SD card back in to your VX8100 and enjoy all of your songs. To play them, hold down the play button on the front of your phone for 2+ seconds. You will see a song list and while playing a nice little equalizer display appears. You can also open your phone and the same display and controls are available.

I hope this helps you all out and good luck.

I can get the song onto the phone by using the miniSD. but the Music Player won't play the song.


Here's what happens:

If I go into "My Music List' the songs that I have transferred over are there. If I choose a song and click 'launch', it opens up the Music Player. Then when I press play The following comes up.

TM-31: There are no songs in your song library. Please enter the TELUS shop to search, preview and download music.
