    Triumph help needed. pc wont recognize when phone is plugged in.

    I plugged in the usb cord into phone and pc. Pc not recognizing phone. Tried two other pcs same thing. I plugged in my optimus v and the pc recognized it right away. Is there any setting i can change on my triumph or is there any tricks i can try to force my pc to recognize my triumph. Thanks,

    Do you get a notification on your phone that says a USB cable has been plugged in?

    No. Got nothing. It will only charge my phone. No usb symble on phone or any pc notice. Any help would greatly be appreciated.

    I think it might be a defective USB port. A friend of mine had the same problem with the computer not detecting it and he sent Virgin Mobile an email and got a free replacement which does not have this issue.

    Can you plug it into a desktop, from the back not the front (e.g. the powered ports)? Are you using the original USB cable? Can you plug it into a different place?

    If you go into Control Panel > System > Hardware tab (on XP) > Device Manager, you should see all the devices that are visible but not properly installed... right-click and delete them. Then plug in the Triumph again.... or there should be a Scan for Hardware menu option.
