Now usually, this sort of thing is a matter of being told "ah, everybody uses package X", but I can't find much in google.
First hit out of google for "3gp linux" was this page, do these instructions not work for you? as they worked for me :) or is it that there is more than 1 flavour of 3gp?

Thanks Adam
I've got 3gp files playing, but under some circumstances - ie when they're made using a phone, there's no sound.
My suspicion is that the sound problems are due to the sound being in the wrong type of AMR (narrowband vs. wideband).
Unfortunately, that guy has the same problem.
I'm loth to install mplayer for various uninteresting reasons, and would rather just run straight wmp - I usually find xine/kaffeine/etc a lot better these days anyway :)
Anyway, on the offchance, I installed mplayer and have encountered the same problem as in kaffeine and totem - ie, sound in clips made on a computer, none in those made on my phone.
BUT, and this is a big but, mplayer returned this error:
Cannot find audio codec for audio format 0x726D6173
popped this in google, and the cached version of a dead page it threw up said it was:
AMR Narrowband 0x726D6173 amr_nb
Maybe this confirms my suspicions... not got time to look into it right away, but hopefully when I do, this will prove fruitful.
