[elmirabeaver]

I have downloaded the USB driver and it is happy. I installed BitPim. I followed the tutorial step by step. But when I try to get the phone data I get an error message (Below).


Any help on sorting out my problem would be appreciated.

did you make sure to set the phones port to RSC232

and to set it to ON

and too set the port speed to 115,200

I am using the VX3200 by verizon and I

have downloaded the drivers by prolific for my datacable, however after installing

these drivers my computer still does not

recognize my cable.

Any ideas?

[themopedwhiz]

uninstall / remove the driver you have already installed

download this one

install the driver

BEFORE you plug the cable into the computer

http://members.driverguide.com/list/...661/index.html

you will have to join, it's free, and NO spam

the driver is listed as USB LG composite CDMA modem

the drivers-file number has several different links with different titles

but it's the same file

I have downloaded the USB installer and installed it using the

drivers for the VX6000. I followed the prompts and plugged the

phone it when I installed it and there is no change in my computer

(I don't get a notice in the lower left hand corner and the device does not show up in the device manager)

I followed your instructions and did not plug the cable in until I had installed the drivers you said to.

Any ideas. Thanks

[themopedwhiz]

you will not get a notice in the corner

they fact that you didn't is good news

goto my computer, system, ports

it show a new com port #5 ,#7,#9

likely it will also show a yellow ! ( exclamation mark )

meaning there is a confilict of resources with another port

I had to turn off / DISABLE the IR (infared) port that was listed as a com port and using the same resources that com 5 , ( the cable ) needed

on your computer it might be wifi or blue tooth or a wireless mouse,

you will have to look to find out

[J_R_S]

After reading your post I went to the device manager and looked

under Com & LPT and there were only two devices, Com Port 1

and LPT port 1. This is the problem I ran into before I joined the

forum and was only reading the tutorials was that it said the

prolific device sould show up in either com port or com port 5.

What I need to know, why doesn't a com port 4,5 or any other

number than what I have show in my device manager and if

there is anything I can do to fix this.

Thanks for all the help

Thanks JSlice great tutorial, I got everything to work from this thread and here:

http://www.geocities.com/vx3200_setup/

[themopedwhiz]

the com port will only show up when the cable is plugged in

turn off the computer, plug in the cable

and turn on the computer

then check system,

if the cable doesn't show up, then you have the wrong, driver/phone selected when you did the install

un-install and select a different phone, when you re-install

I followed JSlice's tutorial: I have a LG Vx3200 phone, the FutureDial Cable #19, i have the drivers working, & BitPim ver. .62 The problem is, first i didn't have the "user" directory, so i added that, then "sound" and "ringer". I then tried added a mp3 ringtone, opening the "download" directory then "dloadindex" and deleted the file brewRingerIndex.map. Then i powered off my phone, then powered on, and there was no ringtone on my phone. Then i opened BitPim again, deleted the mp3 ringtone and followed the same process except using a .mid file
Is there some step i'm skipping? Thanks in advance
I also noticed, then when i try to click Data>Send Phone Data, i get an error say:
An unexpected exception has occurred.

Does anybody else know of any other tutorials for preparing the MP3s that envolves freeware instead of 400$ stuff that only comes with trials? Thanks.

[themopedwhiz]

do a ggoogle search or search your favorite DL site

" audacity "

it's free and will make mp3's out of wav or files

[wolverine423]

look at my link moped

[J_R_S]

Thanks for all the help but I have followed your instructions and I

have installed the only driver that it could possibly (the one for

the VX6000) and it still does not register

Any other ideas,

Thanks again
