i have a v3 and i just can't get it to connect to the pc. it worked fine at first, for about 3 days, but then nothing. i reinstalled mpt and all the drivers, etc...but still nothing. i even used system restore, but without luck. now the pc doesn't "see" the phone at all, no matter what software i use: mpt, p2k... any suggestions? (besides going back to my gud old siemens??)

First download Updated USB driver from here: http://www.free-codecs.com/index.htm
Plug in phone (usb port)
then:
1. Goto My computer
2. select Control Panel
3. select system
4. select device tab
5. look for "Storage Devices" or USB device
6. See if there is a Yellow Exclamation point next to the device
6a. If you see yellow exclamation point click on it then select REMOVE then goto step 7
6b. If you do not see a yellow exclamation point click on device and select update driver
7. Install new driver you donloaded from http://www.free-codecs.com/index.htm
Restart computer and you should be good to go.

thx, but...i can't find those drivers you mentioned. plus, now i have gone back to win2000, a fresh install. now, it won't even detect the phone as "new hardware"...nothing happens when i plug it in. so, i'm guessing that the cable is probably broken. i'll be sure of this in a few days, when i'll plug it into a friend's computer.

Go to device manager--> hardware--> modem llok to see if you have motorola USB modem if so right click to ptoperty--> update drive--> choose secific location then point to it . Sample C:\ program\ mpt \inf. now it should work.
If you got stcuk at initialize process then wait till it's done or hit cancel . you should see now a pic of a fone on your desk top, click on menu icon-> setup-> F6 general setup-> comunication--> modem exchange--> on your left choose motorola GSM on your right look for your fone model click finish now it's should go thru the detec and initializ process and it's should work.
