I purchased a data cable for my k700i about 2 weeks ago. After many, many attempts i still cant get the thing working. I have downloaded software off the sony ericsson site and also off another site. It still says phone not connected. I have messed about with the com ports and tried allsorts. The only thing i can think of is the phone. The computer detects that it is connected but once i go on to the upload software it says no phone connected. Do i need to change any settings on the phone for this to work?

Any help would be gratefully received.

Have you tried just going into 'My Computer' and is there a Removal Disk in there ie. The stick inside the fone.

Hey Pazza, I had the same problem, probably the same cable.. `K coach`. I managed to downloaded a driver `DCU-11` from SE website and it worked... I`m still trying to work out how to download/upload files either way..

regards
