Re: LX350 Research and Development

Stephen,

Thanks, I will take another look at that when I get a chance. 
I think I made the decision to not pursue that when I first 
set up bitpim as it was easy, in linux, to su for the 
terminal session I was running and then when I closed that 
session down I did not need to worry about lax security due 
to allowing more access to parts of my linux OS. 

I played with my LX350 and bitpim quite a bit a few nights 
ago and it looks like the way to get ring tones into the 
LX350 might be through the voice memo option. You can 
record a voice memo and use that as a ring tone. This is 
much the same as when you capture a picture and use it as 
a wallpaper. The quality of the audio is not high, probably 
due to the microphone cutting out non voice frequencies. 

The reason I bring this up is those two parts of the file 
system are writable via bitpim. I have not gotten the phone's 
os to recognize what I have written to the two parts of the 
file system but I have hopes it will be possible. The 
question will be whether LG or Sprint have made the control 
files for those two parts of the file system protected. If 
they are not then it might be a matter of updating the file 
system pointers to the voice memo and the video capture 
directories when you add files of the proper type. Once the 
phones OS recognizes them then we will have write access 
for ringers and wallpaper.
