Hey yall. I'm sorta newb i guess but anywho I've been having an issue with my phone lately. I connect to the computer VIA USB cable and i select file transfer mode...then I saftely remove the hardware and then reconnect to phone mode so I can transfer themes and music and such...but it's saying my phone is not connected. I've read all the support stuff and nothing have been able to help me. Anyone care to help? Thanks |

Hi Bondja,
I have a K800, not a W580, but they should still have a lot of stuff in common...
Assuming you are running Window$ XP or similar, when you connect your phone, and select File Transfer.
You should see a new drive called 'PHONE' and if you have a memory card, a drive called 'PHONE CARD' in My Computer.
Are you connected to a network? One PC I use had Drives E: and F: mapped to network drives, so I had to move network drives to Y: and Z: because the Phone memory uses these drive references.
Also, you shouldn't be connecting in phone mode, thats only if you want to use the phone as a modem.

Hi I have a K750, and when I disconnect the phone just pluging out the cable (because the PC refuses me to "safely remove it") it doesn't get reognised until next PC reset. For themes and games, I think your best bet is bluetooth.

I have a w580i and I just plugged it straight into my laptop (xp) selected file transfer and it popped up as a removable disk. I then put themes and games on in my computer -> F:/ and used itunes agent to put music on. |
