This might sound crazy but first update your MPT to the newest version
(3.11h), then search your hard drive for a file called GDIPLUS.DLL and COPY
(not move) it to the root of your mobile phonetools directory which is
C:\Program Files\mobile PhoneTools by default. For the search to be
successful, you may have to first open My Computer\Windows Explorer, click
on Tools-->Folder Options-->View tab-->and select the option to show hidden
files and folders, and also make sure the option that says Hide protected
operating system files is unselected.

I got this information from a post on the BVRP support forums. One of their
support people posted that solution to another user having a similar
problem. It might be worth a try.

You said the phone was recognized as a v878, does it show a v400 when mpt
opens or does it a v878/v690.
