vx6000 and vx7000 futuredial cables at radio shack worked).
2. load up QPST, in particular the EFS Explorer.

not sure if thats the newest copy but its the only one i could find.... also if you dont know how to use it, i wouldnt. Try using Bitpim first it might be better for you.

Does anyone have the the USB drivers that came with the Mobile Office Kit for VX7000 or any that work on the VX8000. I brought the USB cable home with me this weekend but left the driver disk at work 👿 and I'd really like to try to transfer tunes and flicks. If you have them please send the to cubicalslave@gmail.com. Thanks 😁

I took a gamble and purchased the "VX-8000" cable from RPI Wireless:

http://www.rpiwireless.com/store/accessories/LG-VX-8 ... »

Works like a charm, at least for my purposes, which is as a modem. I just did a bandwidth test and saw 526 kbps.

Even better, it comes with the drivers, QLM software, and the correct username/password for the EVO network ({phone number}@vzw3g.com, password vzw).

This info has been great and it allowed me to pull files off of my new (way cool!) VX800. I have a problem though and am asking for HELP...

I have the RPI Wireless Cable/drivers and use BitPim "filesystem" to access the data.

I removed the dload/image.dat, added the file Tara.jpg (640x480) and rebooted the phone via BitPim and via battery removal. The file is there but the image does not come through. It shows the file name and a graphical question-mark.

Any suggestions would be helpful!

Nevermind! I found my BitPim version was old so the newer version does it nicely for me outside of the filesystem interface.
