Thanks! Great post. Now we know the truth. It was not intended to be an MP3 player at all - or they changed their mind. So now its up to the techies to hack this baby and get her singing. I'm no expert, but as soon as I get my hands on the phone I'll get to work. Unfortunately it looks like New York City will be the LAST place to get the phone â˜šī¸

Wrong... 😉

The Datasheet and the detailed info clearly state that the miniSD card can be used to store "Music" and then in another area the Datasheet states that the exterior media controls give you easy access to this "Music"...

(Print this and read it carefully)

It seems that the 8100 is not intended to store MP3s except on the insertable miniSD card... This makes perfect sense...

It also states that the miniSD card can store user created pictures and videos...

But they're not calling it an mp3 player per se. Read a little more closely.
It states:

MiniSD External Memory Port to Store Pictures*, Videos*, Sounds** and Music

...


*User-generated pictures and videos only, not from downloads.

**Voice memos and sounds received via MMS.


I was pointing out what they intend it to be used for not what we may ultimately be able to do. I am hoping we'll be able to fool it or hack it somehow to get mp3's on the card or load them via the data cable and get them to play.

There is a post above regarding this issue which I am about to investigate . . .

They ARE saying that it has an MP3 player...

http://us.lge.com/www/aboutus/downloads/LG8100_CTIA_ ... »

This is from the LG press kit on the vx8100...

Look at the 9th item down on the feature list... "MP3 Audio Player"...

That's what they SAID then. Apparently they CHANGED their MINDS 😁

(Read: 'All specifications are preliminary and subject to change until official launch' )

I see that that is an "old" document...

I was told elsewhere that it was new as of yesterday...

I stand corrected...

And now I too doubt the actual implementation of an MP3 player...
