Just received my new Mobile
A LG Renoir free on a decent £20 a month contract with 02. So far so good - the camera is excellent, the sound quality excellent, the touch screen excellent, the interface fast and the display also very good!

So as you can imagine I was very happy with my cheeky present to myself for Christmas (as noone else is getting me anything.. sob) but there is one monumentous, glaring, disastrous, face-eatingly frustrating achilles heel to end all achilles heel....

It's mp3 playback refuses to do anything other than alphabetical. I have 8 gigabytes of music loaded on and I can't listen to a single album in a sensible order. The phone automatically plays the songs back in fucking alphabetical fashion.


How stupendously retarded. I have searched a bit around the internet but can't find much further info regarding fixes... Does anyone have the LG Renoir and know of any workarounds?


Merry Xmas! TDW

Rename the tracks or the ID3 tags (depending on what it's sorting by)
to add the track number in front, e.g. 01-Track 1.mp3

Quick and dirty fix, and this is the reason why my mp3 encoder is set up to add numbers on the front of the ripped tracks, I've run into problems with players/software before.

I know they have a forum specific to LG users - there's probably some good hacks/tweaks there that will help.
