I have Vista beta 2, and my V3x is not recognised during install of MPT.
Updating the phone list fails. I'm connecting with USB.

Anyone got their V3x working in Vista?

Ok, Motorola phone tools is a no go for me...

but after about 3 hours of hacking I finally have a connection to the phone.

step 1) Find and install motorola_drivers_29

step 2) Install motorola PST

step 3) Setup P2KMAN

step 4) Plug phone in and try to force driver install (MULTIPLE TIMES!!!!!!)

step 5) Use ADD HARDWARE in the control panel (sooner or later you will
start to see some of the driver components here)

step 6) Restart PC

step 7) Start over at step 4 untill you have installed all of the drivers (I
think I had to install 7 or 8 for this to work.)


I Can charge my V3 by USB, edit files with either PST or P2KMAN, and I can
see the phone as a modem by both USB and Bluetooth.

But the motorola phone tools app still eludes me, I can get it to recognize
the V3 by manually adding it as a bluetooth device under phone tools,
However the app STILL refuses to communicate with the phone...

ok just some basic questions so i can see how far the installs gone, does
the phone show up in the device manager when you plug it in on my system its
under portabe devices on yours it may even show as unknown device if it is
there in some form try install device drivers from there, i had a lot of
secsses installing drivers that way, click update drivers-- browse my
computer for software --- then for location of drivers choose c:\ making
sure that include subfolders is ticked click next and let the puter loose 9
out of 10 times i`v had drivers found and installed this way
( including solving what the unknown device is )

hope this helps

Check your Windows\System32\drivers folder and see if you have the
usbser.sys file.

hi shaun

can you see the phone in the device manager or may be you have a unknown
device listed ?
don`t try to install the motorola driver they don`t work, the drivers that
are in stalled on my system for the motorola v3x are from microsoft thats
why you neeed to do the install from the device manager and search the hard
drive for them .

hope this helps
