jsja, thanks for the VX8700 links. I'll check them out and we'll talk about the VX8700 via PMs, if desired. ycartf, yes, CSV stands for comma separated values.

sounds okay, how do i get it to not change it to a .m4a extension. by the way im using the latest version of bitpim. it automatically changes it over. i delete the aod.dat file before i try to add the mp3. ill play with the settings a bit to see if i did something i shouldnt have.

by the time they figure the crack out the phone and the brew will be completely obsolete. How much is your time worth (must not be worth that much) that you would rather spend it fighting this vs paying the 5 bucks for the game......geesh guys...do the math

Yo what's up? No I haven't. I'm not sure why one would want to since grabbing pics from the phone would still be limited by that USB/serial cable. Did you, and if so, what happened?

That's an interesting idea. Have you checked BitPim's site and maybe e-mail someone there about it? I don't see why it should be a problem; although having 2 different file systems might require the computer to act as an intermediary. Perhaps if they were both the same phones (for example, a friend and yours) using 2 different data cables, it might work.

I am still waiting to see someone plug up two phones at 1 time.

is there any way to delete the default ringtones on the vx8000? I can only put 15 custom ringtones and was wondering if removing the other tones would allow adding more custom tones?
