Just wondering, did you use the usb driver from Samsung website or another driver such as Prolific or others? How you get yours working? Is it just a driver issue?

basically. if you use the USB cable (not serial) you WILL need a driver that bridges the USB connection to something that the computer can recognise. (in this case the driver turns it into a modem <--- if you go to device manager > modems > the samsumg thing will be there.

ALSO once you install the bridging driver com 3/4 will appear in easystudio 2 under 'setup' so you can select it, as opposed to in the past where it was completely blank!

Enjoy. Ill upload and post a link to it.
USB Driver. for those of you with USB plugs for your D500 and have no 'port' selection in easystudio v2.0

SUMMARY OF HOW I GOT MINE TO WORK

OK lets get started with what i HAVE:
*WINXP Pro SP1
*EasyStudio v2.0 (can be got from samsungmobile.co.uk)
*USB Cable
My USB cable has NO BOX in the middle, just a USB connector and D500 connector
*USB Driver From Samsung website (http://uk.samsungmobile.com/mobile_phone/manual.jsp?model_name=SGH-D5 00)
*PL2303 USB driver (get it quick from here: http://www.mobiledia.com/cgi-bin/redirect.cgi?http://s29.yousendit.com  /e.aspx?id=09VQZIM9LZRJN39UE10FHIFW7C)

1) plug USB cable in USB port, With phone turned on also connected in cable
2) install USB driver from SAMSUNG WEBSITE v1.0 i believe
3) install PL2303 USB driver wtih phone still on and plugged in.
4) NOW take data cable out of phone, and reconnect it...windows should do a bit of crap and install it as a modem.
5) install easystuido v2.0
6) in ES v2.0 go to file > setup > pick com3/4 what ever is there.
7) press reload and it should load up all your sim data.
icon_cool.gif If you want Java games etc i highly recommend this straight forward guide: (http://www.mobile-review.com/forum2/showthread.php?t=24750)

NOTE: im refering to the guide. you have to press #*5737425# ONLY once (per phone restart) to indicate PPP>USB, BUT you have to press #*5737425# EACH time you upload every individual java applet. I find half of them dont work as they are not compatible with the phone.

anyway EnJoy [/list][/list]

THANKS!! IT WORKS!! I can finally transfer stuff.
But I still don't have the USB-to-serial bridge. So I still can't flash new firmware.
I'll wait for my new cable.

I still can't upload java though. When I see the jack-in-the-box my phone just reboots.. :{.
