I just got this phone yesterday. I bought the Micro SD card and put a few song files into the 'My Music' folder of the Micro SD card. I converted 8 mp3 files to WMA 128 bitrate files but when I put the micro SD card into my phone I only see 5 songs. For some reason three of them wont show up to play on the phone. I tried to re-convert the songs, lower the bitrate, but only got the same results. Has anyone else had this problem? What do I do to fix it?

This is weird, my wife bought the Cherry Chocolate (LG VX8500) the same day, and when I put the same Micro SD memory card in from my phone, all of the songs show up on her's! .and still the same 3 wont come up on my phone.

What gives?

The length of the file can't be too long. Try to shorten the longer ones. And you don't have to convert them to WMA. The VX8600 plays MP3 files just fine.

Yeah I just found that in another forum! All I had to do was shorten the file name and all the songs work fine now! The other forum said that its a software issue with the VX8600, I guess the Chocolate doesn't have that same issue with music files. Oh well, just one extra step I have to do when adding in songs.

What all formats does the phone support? I know WMA, and mp3 for audio, but what about for video and pics?

Also, the VX8600 will not play or add to library any song names that are not in Roman alphanumeric characters (i.e. Korean, Japanese, Chinese, etc.), even if your Windows/iTunes/Windows Media Player supports these file names.

If you change the file names to Roman, the song titles will still be messed up: will show up as "? - ?" but at least they will play.

You figure, for a Korean phone, it will support Asian languages, lol.

Having the same issue. (VX9900) I write directly to the card, no good. Using Bitpim, and slow USB, it works. ?

Never mind. I just shortened all the file names to about 36-40 characters, and I'm able to listen to them all. Life is good once again!
