I have read all the replies to this post. I have the V220 and have no problem getting ringers or graphics to my phone.. The problem I have is the games? How can I transfer the games to the phone or can't I do that? And if I'm able to transfer a game how do I know where it went on my phone? I saw on my mobile phone tools it only have two folder showing on my phone. Audio and pictures? Shouldn't there be more? Please help? Thank you
I doubt it. I'm not sure about other service providers, but I know that Cingular charges around $3-4 per game (yeah, it's a ripoff...) and I'm sure that Motorola understands that most services probablydo the same. I would guess that in order to get these services to carry their phone, Motorola would attempt to please them by not making it easy for you to do such a thing. Now, if you want to do some serious software development, you may be able to hack something together by sniffing USB activity and figuring out the protocols involved in transfering files to and from the phone. I hope I'm wrong and that there's an easier way
I posted earlier and would like to know how you can transfer games or even screen savors to my phone thru computer to phone? If you where able to do that or no? I already have the games but can't figure out how to get them to my phone. I can do ringers and wallpaper no problem. Without having to go to a web site to pay for it. thank you rdropps

hi you guys I was wondering if anyone of you know how to get ringtones or games or anything for a metro pcs nokia 2270 phone? if so please help out
Waqas9, The links you showed is for flashing your phone: http://www.mob453.com/phones/motorola_v600/ I am guessing that you just want data-connectivity of which Motorola Phone Tools is what you want. If you keep getting an error I would un-install all of the item's and start over. This time install the 1.23 and then upgrade it to 2.21b before installing the P2K package. Oh, and by the way. Are you running XP SP2? http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/112650 Good luck!
Thanks GeeDaddy and Xman2004 and also with thanks to this forum i can now put ringtones on my other halfs phone (thumbs up to you all), can i now ask how to do the same with the mp3 or wav files.
Xman2004, I have a V60T (ATT) and an aftermarket USB data cable. I want to use the Mot Phone Tools software to upload phone numbers to my phone. I went to http://www.motclub.com/html/programs.htm and downloaded and installed Motorola Phone Tools 1.23C and then downloaded and installed the upgrade to 2.16 English. These software packages appear to have the p2k.sys included and they install them on my Win XP system. When I start the software up it tell me to plug in my phone, which I do, and it correctly detects that it's a V60 (of some sort). I can open the modem communications window and see the AT commands flying by and everything looks fine there, however after the phone is initialized, the actual software does not work. It does nothing. I tried to dial a number from the software but it will only take a couple digits if you're lucky and then will not accept anymore. If you try to connect to read or upload the phone book, it will fail, but again, on initialization, I can see the AT's going by just fine and the software even read the EIN of the phone and displays it. One thing I did notice in the AT commands is that the software keeps periodically trying to set the phone into the GSM mode. However, this is not a GSM phone. It's ATT so it's TDMA. I wonder if this is a problem. Anyway, the computer does talk to the phone to some degree but none of the functions of the phone tools software are actually working. Any ideas or suggestions ? Thanks !
thnx tht did help wht i actually did was when i installed the 1.23 tools when i got the eroor i pree ctrl+alt+delete to cancel teh program and then i installed the latest 2.21b tools on top of it the software started working perfectly it go connected and evrything but then for the past hour or soo...it just says initializing...i did a live updtae and updated the software evrything but it still says initialising i also have the p2k driver 2.3 but i duno wht to do with it it doesnt install automatically i mean whenever i click on it it says open with...and then i dont noe wht to open it with my phone is v220 it also didnt ask for wht phoen i have althought when i connected my phone it teh software started loading but it just says initialising someone pleaseee help
In an answer to my own question i just discovered this thread elsewhere on this board: http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/112650 I'm using XP SP2, so I'll try another computer/OS and report back.
Xman and all, I installed the software on a windows 2000 machine and it does the same thing. The modem talks to the phone to a limited degree but the software is unable to communicate with the phone book or any other feature other than initialization. The phone is a V60T, not a V60iT. Wonder if that has anything to do with it. Any help from anyone would be appreciated.
Waqas9, It sounds like you need to re-install everything. I hope I understand you correctly in that it was running fine until you did a live update. Delete the program and re-insall it and if it works dont do the live update; "if it aint broke". CaHiker, I think you might just need to try a different driver. But 1st what are you listing your phone as in the program because I dont think its listed? Try the V600 setting and see if that makes a difference. If not then try one of these USB drivers: http://www.motclub.com/html/drivers.htm If your already using the P2K driver then try the regular USB driver, visa versa.
hi i have a kyocera kx414 im thinking of buying the data cable so i can transfer ringtones to my phone i want to know what i need the transfer ringotnes to my phone i do not have mobile web on my phone though so i need a detailed list of wht to do thanks
Hi, I would just like to take a moment to thank the people of this forum for all the info given to get PC connectivity to the Motorola V220. After a frustrating hour or two, I was able to get everything to work. Thanks MUCH to Xman2004 and GeeDaddy. Here's a quick rundown of what worked with me: Note: If you have Win XP, you cannot have SP2 on it (it won't complete the install of the Mobile Phone Tools 1.23c software). Note: The system I tried it on is Win XP without any service packs. 1. Driver install: P2K Driver 2.3. If the motclub site is not working, try this link: http://www.motorola-c650.spb.ru/stored/publications/606/download/P2K_driver_2.3.zip If that doesn't work or goes down, search P2K Driver 2.3 in Google and poke around for one. 2. Mobile Phone Tools 1.23c (English). Unfortunately, I tried the FTP link (ftp://ftp2.bvrp.com/motorola/) and could not get it through there; I ended up searching for it in Google. Good luck. 3. Maj_mobilePhoneTools.exe from the FTP site (see above). I ran this and nothing happened for me. Just wanted to put this step in, in case it really did something. =) 4. mobilePhoneTools_2.21b_US-exe from the FTP site. Installed it, then restarted my computer. 5. Poked around with that for a while, and the phone was automagically recognized. I did not need to select V600 as my phone. It took a while, but it recognized it and allowed me to transfer files. Note: You only have about 1.2 MB of free space, so try to keep those MP3 ringtones short, convert to mono, and 96 kbps or less. The speaker isn't very high quality anyway. Variable bit rate MP3s (at least with Lame) did not work for me. Used the Lame MP3 encoder. Good luck everyone! And thank you all again! Edit: I'd like to mention that I have done only the following transfers: images (JPG, GIF) and audio (MP3, MIDI). For all those looking for games or screensavers, I did not try them (my phone is full hehe). Good luck to you!
Hi all. I have more news for you guys with SP2. You may not be able to INSTALL the Mobile Phone Tools software on a Windows XP SP2 system, BUT, you can copy it from a system that has it already installed. Example: System 1: WinXP Sysetm 2: WinXP SP2 1. Installed Mobile Phone Tools software as described in my earlier post onto WinXP system. 2. Get the phone to connect with the WinXP system. 3. Copy the directory "C:\Program Files\mobile PhoneTools" to the computer with WinXP SP2. 4. Run the software on the WinXP SP2 system. You'll find that it works. I just copied it to my laptop with SP2 and it works just fine. Good luck!
Limeroo, Good looking out on the workaround! I'm sure that information will come in handy to quite a few. Now I'm just waiting to see what happens to BlueAndy in regards to his dealing with Motorola UK: http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/112650 They will have to create a patch or workaround as SP2 is not going away, and telling a customer to uninstall it just to use their software is bad business practice.
Hey guys, I have the Motorola v525 and I have a huge problem. I "upgraded" the v525 to v600 through the Flashing and Flexing at http://www.mob453.com/phones/motorola_v600/ and the software said it was successful , BUT when I turned on the phone it has no display! It makes sounds but the internal and external screens are black! I NEED HELP PLEASE WHAT CAN I DO? PLEASE HELP ME....
BBM, This is exactely why I dont get into explaining Flashing or Flexing because you can end up with a dead phone. Find out what your original firmware was if you can, or which Triplet you need then down load it from here: http://www.phonecrap.com/flex/ or here http://www.phonecrap.com/flash/ "At least I hope the one you need is there." Data connectivity is one thing, but for those intrigued about installing different firmware or what-not on your phone "DONT GO THERE" unless you have knowledge of what your doing. Flashing of Flexing your phone renders your warranty null & void. Therefore if you mess up and cant fix it yourself you end up paying premium to fix or replace, as most of us get our phones cheaply through service contracts.
