Have you tried all the ports that the USB cable can connect to? Try connecting through different USB ports..

1. Does windows automatically see the new hardware? does it say new hardware found.
2. If windows finds the hardware, check for correct drivers
3. If you install MPT and update the installation, you should have all the latest drivers.
4. If windows does not detect new hardware, you may want to check the usb port or the cable. Try connecting another device to the usb port, try another cable if you can get another or borrow.

when i plug it in a message coms up saying new hardware found and to in stall the software but i dont have any so i just hafta cancel it and i have tried other usb plugs but it does the same and the drivers is that just the programs i am downloading?? im not sure if i have tried the new MPT i havent really found a link for it other then the sticky in the vxxx website

Ok, so that means your USB port and cable is fine. It is just the driver problem.

You can get the MPT software for about #30. Installing this will install the drivers. Try to get an older version like MPT 2.0 that some retailers may have lying around and may give you for much less. Once you install 2.0, you can connect your phone and then upgrade (using the update option in the software menu) the software to the latest version..

i downloaded the mobilephone tools program from a torrent and install it but it still doesnt seem like it wants to detect a connection

Yeah, just change your USB ports, mine did not work until i moved it to the back

Once you start the program, take the cable out and plug it back again into the phone. Should autodetect, or click the button to detect.
Did you install all the updates, not just one. Also read from

im having kinda the same problem with my V635, it will connect and make the sound it does when I plug something into the USB but then it disconects like i moved the cord or something its driving me NUTS !!!! so mobile phone tools doesnt even get the time to connect. I have to cords so its not the cord, is it maybe my phone?? please help thank you

does anyone have a download think for the TrueSync software i dont think i have tried that idk if it will work but its worth a try

I had to install the USB driver manually because Mobile Phone Tools does find the phone but won't install the driver automatically.

where did you get the driver???

Mobile phone Tools extracts the driver here C:\Program Files\Motorola\iDEN USB Driver
