A simple question on DaVinci and serial cable. I have one serial cable which I use to connect my k500 to the computer. It works with FMA and K700 Dateimanager with RTS and DTR settings set as default (fma - RTS:on DTR:off; Dateinmanager - RTS:handshake DTR:on).

Now I'm trying to use DaVinci to change sms tones and it does not connect, no matter to what I set the RTS/DTR settings in the client. The DaVinci client itself says that:

Quote:

Some serial cables works only with
RTS or DTR box unchecked.
If your phone powered byself or
can't powered after first stage -
please try uncheck RTS or DTR boxes



So after messing with RTS/DTR settings I anyway get the message:

Client Version 13.22

Shortly press Power button!

Can anyone make any comments to what I'm experiencing? Helpful comments would be much appreciated


Thanks a lot

You have a DATA cable. It must be modified in order to work with any of these flashing programs. I believe either the vendor or another competing vendor has detailed instructions on how to modify the cable, or you can serach on this forum. Look for "T28 cable"
