Just installed Mobile Phone Tools - Doesn't discover my phone

Hi all,

I have just got an E398 and have installed Mobile Phone Tools.

No problems with the installation and have got the latest version.

It gets the bit where it is trying to find my phone and doesn't find it
- even although my phone is sitting in "discover me" mode.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

Paul.

Your post is weak on detail, but suggests you are trying to use Bluetooth, in
which case the phone probably needs to be paired with the Bluetooth adapter.

From phone, turn BT power on, Select 'Find Me' and you'll see the BT
logo flash. Start MPT, select BT as the connection method. MPT will find
the phone and provide pairing instructions. You enter any 4 digit code
on the MPT screen and then your phone will ask you to enter the same
code on the phone. Then they will be paired.

For me with MPT on Windows XP Pro using Windows XP Bluetooth drivers, the
phone had to first be paired in Windows XP before MPT would find it.
