Hello,

I recently purchased an unlocked L6 SLVR that seems to be for the Hong Kong market....but I will be using it here in the US.

I wanted to connect my computer to the phone and initially things seemed OK when I did...(usual popup asking to look for drivers and what not comes up).

I tried using the P2KMan drivers (p2k.inf, USBMOT2000.INF) and the computer installs the phone under a MOTOROLA USB MODEM device. Ok great....I diagnose the device using the device manager submenu and it seems there's communication.

I restart the computer and reattach the phone to the computer to make sure there are no other driver that need installing. Nothing else comes up so I figure I'm good to go.

Now I launch the P2Kman.exe and as soon as I do that, the device manager indicates that there is no more MOTOROLA USB MODEM device but rather now an unidentified USB device with the yellow exclamation mark on it.

So I decide to re-install the driver and windows cannot find any suitable driver available for this device...WTF.

I even tried using the official Motorola drivers (filename = Motorola_EU_Driver_Installation.msi) and also downloaded SLVL6 drivers and none of the drivers are compatible anymore.

This is really pathetic as plug-and-play items like this shouldn't be so freaking difficult to manage. Either Motorola has really written some crappy USB protocols or the phone just plain sucks.

Anyway, any help would be appreciated.

I think I tried that....the device still pops up as a USB device for which the drivers are not valid icon_confused.gif

I'll try again but any other suggestion or thought would be much appreciated!

I missread, try the getting connected tutorial in the tutorials section, 4 or 5 drivers need to be installed for p2k programs.
