I have already purchased snapdialer and snapsync well over a year ago, but i had a hard drive crash and I can't find the cd. I use bitpim anyways I was wondering if someone had the installer file and could e-mail it to me. I have looked on futuredials site and for some reason its not workin. So if anyone has time and could e-mail it I appreciate it,
thanx,

Hello!
I'm a newbie to howard forums and the whole using your computer with your phone world. I've had my 6000 a little more than a year. Now I'm finding that the programs to use the cable I bought at Radio Shack are 30 bucks a piece! Can I mooch and get the programs too? Or is there anywhere I can download what I need to get ringtones/games/animations to my phone? I'm just a lowly student, who until today worked for VZW (I was a temp, but after today they don't need temps until holidays), therefore I'm POOR!!

Thanks for any help! My email is Magliwan@hotmail.com

You can download program called BitPim (i use version 7.16) and drivers from FutureDial (all for free). But you do need to buy a cable. I use one from Radio shack. It is compatable with lg vx 6000/4500. Make sure you buy one with a "bulge" in the middle. I think it's about $20. If you need step-by-step instructions use this:
1. Buy radioshack cable

2. Download BitPim software Windows 98/ME/2000/XP

3. Download FutureDial USB Drivers

4. Uninstall any previously loaded usb/port drivers

5. Install USB Installer.exe

6. Under phone selection, scroll up to select LG 6000

7. Re-boot pc (after successfull installation)

8. Turn on LG 6000, select MENU 8, 6, 2, USB

9. Turn phone off, then back on to re-boot

10. Attach USB>serial cable to both phone and pc

PC will automatically detect & install New Device

11. Install bitpim_7.16_setup.exe

Goodluck. Let us know if you have any problems.

I'm actually having a problem.

I purchased a Futuredial cable, but not the software because I was planning to use Bitpim. However, XP won't recognize the cable, Bitpim won't recognize the cable, and the drivers that I download from futuredial don't seem to have an install file, or a file that add/hardware will recognize. It has an uninstall file, but no install exe or usual driver file that I can find.

Where did I go wrong, and what steps should I take to make this work?

I was having the same problem with the futureDial cable I picked-up at Radio Shack and just got it to work. You are right, there is no install file in the download from FutureDial. You need to pick-up a copy FutureDial's USB Installer.exe. I did a search and found it.

I followed Barmalei's procedure (Thanks Barmalei) and it worked like a champ .

Being a total newbie at messing around with a phone, I'm impressed that i can add contacts using my computer's keyboard. Next step read up on how to get rid of that Verizon banner

Be seeing you

Does someone have a link to futuredials file for the drivers?

I have a friend that can't get the drivers working that I have working on my computer, and I'm thinking that if he tries theirs, it will work. If anyone either has the link, or has the file, I will upload it to a permant site for others.

Is there anyway I could use your briefcase to download the installer as well, I just picked up the USB cable today and realized that I forgot to get drivers for it. I think you have to add me to be able to access your briefcase. Thanks

I am also searching for the USB installer so I can start using BitPim and transfer some wallpaper to my phone. Here is my e-mail: hardcore_c_hxc@yahoo.com

Thanks,
Chris

I'm in the same boat -- cable from radio shack w/o software.

I'm looking for the install driver too. Anyone??

Posted by: TriscuiT

Perhaps this is what we need?

Posted by: misfit_toy

Thanks for the reply, but I had already downloaded that particular set. It doesn't include an installer, only an UNinstaller.

I pretty much have the exact same problem that was posted above but I can't get to the person's "briefcase" who orginally said he had an Installer.

I am also in need of the usb installer.

Tried the USBtoSerial Drivers but it just uninstalls after i put the missing ini file in win/sys32 folder.

Tried the dnet driver also, but no luck.

After the dnet driver installed i plugged the cable in. the dnet device is listed as COM4 in device manager, but when i try BitPim it says COM4 is inoperable. When i try QPTS only com ports 1 and 2 show up.

Lastly, when i try to install a few other apps i get errors saying its not WinXP signed and the installer fails out.

any suggestions?

After looking all over i was able to find the file.

It was called USBInstaller.exe and its 4.2 MB

Posted by: Demised

Found the link to the installer on the web.

I was hosting it myself, but you should get better speeds from them.

Here is where i downloaded it:

Ok...I'm completely new and have no clue.

I bought the FutureDial data cable from Radio Shack and then downloaded the drivers from two different places. Both times they tell me that to install them I have to have the disk. I'm sure I'm just doing something stupid but could someone please help me out?

I have win98se and the vx6000. Thanks!

4. Uninstall any previously loaded usb/port drivers
5. Install USB Installer.exe
6. Under phone selection, scroll up to select LG 6000

9. Turn phone off, then back on to re-boot
10. Attach USB>serial cable to both phone and pc
