Hi there,

I just got a new LG VU. I was wondering if anyone knows of any tips or tricks that can help me. I know there are a lot of hidden gizmos on here.

Also, is there a place to download free wallpapers and themes?

Usually, the user manual has all the neat shortcuts and tricks that the phone possesses. I know it's a pain to read all 130 pages of it, but it's worth the read (possibly while sitting on the toilet or have nothing better to do).

Did the Vu come with a usb cable and software? If so, you can use these to upload pictures and turn them into wallpaper.

It did not come with either software nor a cable. The user's "manual" was actually more like a pamphlet and incredibly uninformative.

That's strange, as it "should" have...

You can buy the usb sync cable here for $0.76:

You've read the user's manual? It's 136 pages long!

I'm not sure if this is the one you got, but here it is in PDF form:

No, the one that came with the phone was a pamphlet. I will read that though. Thank you.
