Multiple questions about LG Revolution - (FFC, RAM, gsearch, launcher)

I just got the LG Revolution and so far I love it.

 

I do have a few questions however:

 

1) What is the deal with the front facing camera? Video chat is vaporware?

 

2) What is the total installed RAM on this phone? I was assured twice by verizon representatives (and parts of the website) that the phone came with 768mb of RAM (not to be confused with ROM). However when I check apps that display the hardware information I'm clocking in at a mere 368.25 total memory. Even with some allocation to the OS I would imagine that I"m missing at least 256mb here. 

 

3) The google search widget does not work! Pushing the text field area of it does nothing - the voice search still works though.

 

4) I installed a different launcher (ADW) but when I removed it the phone went crazy, would hardly boot and basically was inoperable until i put ADW back on.

 

5) Why isn't there a dedicated forum for the LG revolution?

Hi blatant!

 

Okay, I'll answer each question in order:

 

1) We are awaiting implimentation software for the front-facing camera.

2) We don't have access to the official RAM specs. From what I can gather, its 512MB

3) Have you deleted and re-created the widget? Possibly corrupt. Let's try that first!

4) Tough to have a response for this. Third party apps are terrific but some of them are unpredictable. If this continues to be a problem, you may have to look into a master reset to full purge all remnants of ADW.

5) I'll elevate that request!
