    Is anyone else having any issues with new cell phones?
    My friend has the LG Shine & I have the LG Xenon and we both experience a lot of problems with them.
    I'm actually starting to wonder if it's just LG phones in general.
    When I used to own Samsungs in the past, they worked perfectly find without any of these issues. ]x

    My LG Xenon will not send text messages the first time, I have to repeatedly try to resend the same text over 7 times.
    There are also other times where it will freeze or the qwerty keyboard won't work.

    As for my friend's LG Shine, it has all of the issues above, excluding the qwerty keyboard keyboard problem since they do not have one.


    Any thoughts on this?

    I don't think it's not LG in general. Sometimes I have a problem with not sending texts and that's only if my phone receives and sends a text at the exact same time, but I'm not LG. The message will display that it hasn't delivered, but sometimes it will, sometimes it won't. When all else fails, talk to someone who's a real phone expert, like a sales person (lol jk, they are generalists - try LG customer service?).

    I have a window mobile os, so of course I have problems, but nothing major usually and i've had it for quite a while. It doesn't help that I've made a few mods too. -- Blackjack II

    BAH! i have the HTC Tilt and it is a horrible phone... well not a horrible phone but the construction of the phone is horrible, me and my other friends who have it experience hardware issues all the time and we constantly have to get it replaced. I absolutely hate it because when i got it i was either gonna get an iphone or my tilt and i chose the tilt becuase i didn't like the touchscreen on the iphone, but now i'm really regretting it because the iphone runs so flawlessly and if there is an error there's so much error handling that you'd never know xD

    The only LG phone I've ever had was the worst piece of junk ever. I hated that thing, seriously. Bad in every way.

    LG makes crap phones and has even crappier service.

    LG rumor constantly shuts off mid call
    LG chocolate keys dont work
    LG ear piece shipped dead on arrival and they refuse to repalce it even though its brand new.

    stick to HTC or Blackberry.
