Problem with v400's and mobile PhoneTools
Posts: n/a now none of them are recognized by the software. The cable is a generic usb. The software has been re-installed several times, with no change. Is it possible the cable and/or software is damaging the phone interface? Functionally, they all appear ok. They just wont connect to the pc. Anyone have any thoughts?

Posts: n/a Re: Problem with v400's and mobile PhoneTools Thx for the suggestion, but the only items listed under COM Ports are the 2Serial and 1 LPT. Under USB there are two USB Root Hub's and 2 VIA Rev 5 USB Universal Host Controllers. No phones listed.

Phones will not be listed in Device Manager under com port and USB. The only thing you'll see in Serial Ports in Device Manager will be the com ports themselves. -- To reply, remove TheObvious from my e-mail address.

I found that I had to unplug all USB devices except for the phone data cable, else it was hit and miss. I personally don't think that MPT is written very well re recognizing the phone via a USB connection.
Posts: n/a Re: Problem with v400's and mobile PhoneTools Anon--Thanks for your response. I tried removing the other USB device, no success. Tried removing the software, and then re-installing again. No success. I really fear that I have somehow damaged the phones, though I can't imagine how. Same scenario with both phones.... They were detected the first couple times and were accessible, then, out of the blue the software wouldn't detect them. Not sure what to do next. "Anon Y.

Posts: n/a Re: Problem with v400's and mobile PhoneTools Thx!!!Found a solution.... Power the phone off, and back on. It is then detected by the MPT software!!! "Anon Y.
