Hi, 3gp is a video format for mobile phone and those videos played on computer are of AVI, mp4 or HD format.Thus this problem occurs when playing mobile video(3gp) on computer as no video player of computer say for example VLC player, Windows media player etc can play 3gp format efficiently. But the problem can be easily tackled by using software's like FORMAT FACTORY and SOTHINK CONVERTER. These are free video converters which are easily available on free downloading websites.

Once you transfer your video from mobile to computer just upload your video on one such converter and change it to AVI or mp4 format. This conversion will not b able to change the quality of video as the converter is free of cost but now you can enjoy your video with sound. Video conversion would not take more than 5 minutes so you do not have to worry about the time too. Now it would not matter that you are making your video from a high price cell phone or just a simple camera phone costing you under 3 thousand. Just follow the procedure and you well be satisfied.

In addition, these converters can even convert large mp4 or AVI format videos to 3gp which are compatible with mobile so you can enjoy them on your mobile phone.

Hope this would be of help!
