Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of USB Data Cable For LG CU515, CU575, TRAX, CU720 Shine
Customer Review: Annoying to use, but works
Summary: 4 Stars
I ordered this with hesitation, after seeing the reviews that suggested it would only transfer data off a MicroSD card in the phone. However, after doing a lot of research, this isn't the case.
The cable came with a diskette containing drivers, which was encouraging. After installing the drivers, my Windows XP Pro SP3 recognized the phone as a USB device, but didn't recognize it as storage. I had heard about a free software called BitPim ([...]) that claims to be able to access phones' filesystems, so I downloaded and installed it and gave it a try.
I used a message board I found off Google on my AT&T LG Shine CU720, and had good results with this method:
1. Run "lg.exe" off the diskette.
2. Go to Menu > Settings > Connection > USB Connection Mode on your phone and set it to "Data Service".
2. Plug in your cell phone into a working USB port on your computer.
3. Download and install BitPim. The starting wizard should be set to "other CDMA device".
4. Click on "Find Phone" or Edit > Detect Phone. A popup window will come up and say that the "other CDMA device" was recognized.
5. Go to Edit > Settings and change "other CDMA device" to Verizon LG VX8700.
6. Select View > View Filesystem.
7. Open the filesystem and browse to "/LGAPP/Media/Images/Graphics" for camera images, and other folders for other files.
After doing this, it worked perfectly. The only con was that I couldn't mount the phone as a partition, but I can live without that. Hope this helped!
