I have an LG vX8300 and have been trying to use the Bitpim software to transfer music, ringtones, walpapers, photos, etc, but it won't detect my phone. I have it connected with a USB cable but it keeps trying to detect from a serial port. How can I get Bitpim to detect my phone? Thanks in advance for any help and advice.

Did you install the drivers for the USB cable?
Do you have you phone set to USB connection?

You need to install cable drivers for the USB cable to work. Cable should have come with software. Do a Google search and see if you can find usb cellphone cable drivers.
On my phone, to change to usb, it is under "tools" - "pc Connection"

Re: VX8300 not detected by Bitpim
did you ever get the phone connected?
My computer recognizes the phone through the USB as a modem, but bitpim doesn't pick up anything. Any suggestions?

I know this post is old, but I have a answer for anyone else with the same problem. Download a driver for the VX5500 from the LG site. Install that, then try using Bitpim.
I had the same problem - my wife has a VX5500, I have a VX-8300, and I found the same driver worked for the two.
