Go to phone settings>
USB settings>
<Mass Storage>

This will enable your transflash to show up when you hook it to your usb.
Likewise, Modem will show whats contained on the phone memory when hooked to your usb.

Hope that helps!

Just posted a sort of How To on this in this forum

hope this helps you all and by the way the t809 rocks. easy phone to manage files to and from with the included usb data cable.

thanks alot.This is a great help.Not everyone has access to europe phones now that we have the phone we'll have to find a way out of this.

I don't know about all of these mp3 problems. Do what I did and buy a different phone because the samsung t809 is a cool little phone that lacks a lot of features to match its high price. I got a sony z800i from europe and it's awesome cuz you don't have to deal with any of the stupid restrictions like these us phones.

probably dumb question but how do you convert a song to .3gp
like i got a mp3 CD and i put the song i want on my comp, so now what?

change the file extension of the mp3s u want as ringtones to .3gp, copy to the tflash card, save to the phone, file manager search, save as ringtone. voila

You can't set YOUR own mp3 as ringtones because they do not have DRM(digital Rights management). Fancy way of saying you didn't legally purchase the mp3 file. Either purchase mp3 from T-mobile's website or download from a paid site. In any case i hope you like this phone because I am returning mine.

I just got a new samsung t809 from t-mobile and i cant figure out how to make my mp3s my ringtone. when i go to the menu to change my ringtone, my songs are grayed out and it wont let me select them. why?
