The LGE LX5350 mobile phone includes Openwave® Mobile Browser 6.1. These release notes describe how to install and use a configuration file (or "skin") for this phone with the Openwave SDK 6.1 to simulate the LGE phone on a Windows-based computer.
The configuration and supporting files for the LGE LX5350 are distributed in a .zip file, which you can download from the Simulator 6.1 page. To install these files, first make sure you have the Openwave SDK 6.1 installed on your computer, as described in its release notes. Then download the LGE LX5350 .zip file and install its contents in the C:\Program Files\Openwave\SDK 6.1\program\devices directory (or wherever you installed the SDK 6.1\program\devices directory, if you didn't install the SDK in the default directory). Then read the release notes (this file) that come with the skin to learn about its features.
To use the LGE LX5350 configuration file with Openwave SDK 6.1, use the SDK simulator's File > Open Configuration menu item, or specify it with the -pho command-line argument. (To learn more about starting and controlling the SDK, choose Start > Programs > Openwave SDK 6.1 > Release Notes to read the release notes for the SDK.)
The real LGE LX5350 phone includes the HTTP version of Openwave Mobile Browser 6.1, so to ensure accurate simulation, use the LGE LX5350 configuration file only with the HTTP version of Openwave SDK 6.1.
This document describes how the keys, buttons, and other controls on the simulator and the real phone control display content. It also describes some of the ways the simulator and the real phone differ.

Differences Between the LGE LX5350 Simulator and Phone
In addition to the differences in how keys are mapped to the display area content (described in the previous section), please keep the following differences in mind as you use the Openwave SDK 6.1 simulator for the LGE LX5350 phone.
In the Display Area:
At the top, the real phone has icons indicating signal strength, messages, battery life, and so on, that do not appear on the simulator.
Icons appear for a number of softkey labels on the simulator, in place of the text that appears on the real phone.
Fonts:
The LGE phone has its own font and font-drawing software, which are not compatible with Windows. The simulator uses the Windows Arial font and the standard Windows font-drawing software. The result is that the appearance and number of characters that will fit on a line, in softkey labels, how lines wrap, the number of lines that fit on the screen, and so on, are not the same on the simulator as on the phone.
The LGE phone supports only one font in two sizes, with normal and bold styles. The Windows font Arial comes in many sizes and styles, including normal, bold, and italic. Because of these and related differences in the fonts and font-drawing software between the simulator and the LGE phone, the same content does not always appear in the same size and style on the simulator as on the phone. For example, text tagged with:
<i> appears in italic on the simulator, but normal on the phone
<em> appears in bold-italic on the simulator, but bold on the phone
<big> and <small> appear in larger and smaller fonts on the simulator, but only <big> changes the size of body text on the phone
The Browser menu:
The Openwave Mobile Browser has its own menu, offering a number of useful features. However, the appearance and content of the Browser menu are not identical on the simulator and the phone.
