Samsung SPH-A660 and FutureDial SnapMedia

Ok i download FutureDial and its activated. i installd FutureDial SnapMedia and i think i installd the usb driver right cuz it says it on My Computer/ Hardware/ Device Manager/ Modem: Samsung CDMA Modem #2 . but when i run FutureDial Snapmedia it ask for the port that the phone is connected on. I choose COM5 cuz thats wut it said in the Samsung CDMA modem properties. but then another window pops up. it ask for what phone is connected. My Samsung SPH-A660 is not listed on LG, Hitachi, and Sanyo phones r listed. ?????what can i do to make my phone an option for the choose phone?????????

As per below link from FutureDial, it seems that A660 is not in it's compatibility list:

However, it is last updated in Jan. I suggest you contact FutureDial for help. By the way, have you download Updates for your phone. You can find it in the same link as above.

i went to this link http://www.futuredial.com/support/do...SB_Drivers.htm. . and it had drivers for my Samsung SPH-A66 but it still doesnt show up as an options in the drop down menu for phones. Can anyone explain to me how to install the USB drivers that i download from THE site above .

so does any know how to install the USB drivers i download from http://www.futuredial.com/support/d...USB_Drivers.htm . or how to add my samsung on the list of phone models during the Futuredial installion

Extract the zip file and then run setup.exe to install the driver. After that see if A660 is on the list of phone models during the FutureDial SnapMedia installation.

js1662 when i ran the setup it ask me where to intall . do u have im mine is AIM s/n :splashsquare. please help .

I also have the FutureDial software (SnapSync) as sold by Bell Mobility, and all it does is sync the a660 phone list with MS Outlook contacts. There does not appear to be any utility to enable actual communication with the hardware...i.e. to transfer files to-from the phone. Far as I am concerned it's almost totally useless ($70 CAD for the software), and it only does 1 task...which any number of other utilities can do equally well.

I want to transfer ringtones and screensavers, edit settings, and generally take control of my phone.

BitPim does NOT recognize the phone, and I HAVE installed the Samsung driver. Like in other posts it is listed as a Samsung CDMA modem in device manager, com3, but B-P fails to recognize that there is a phone connected to the computer.

Any suggestions?

Incidentally, I have reviewed the BitPim tutorial on thePhonemall.net; although it's not specifically about the a660, its look-&-feel is well described there. I followed the port setup by editing the 'settings' but stil no success.

Try the following link and see if it works for your A660:

Mind you, be very careful when you are playing with the files directly.

Many thanks, js...that's a cool link!

I have some work to do...
