Hey folks!

Am facing probs wit connecting via USB/IrDA to my 8380! Hve installed the s/w on pc, all connections r in place...i fire up the Async manager & it searches for connections...finally i get to a screen which confirms that USB is available, IrDA is available BUT "Unable to connect to device"

Any ideas wud b appreciated!

BTW all this is simply to install a file explorer on the phone...why doesn't smartphone 2002 come w/ one already!?!

A failure in device connection is often caused by a firewall running on the PC. If you have a firewall try turning it off.

After a hard reset I often down SmartExplorer to the phone over GPRS. Try www.4smartphone.com/mobile (programmer menu) from the SPV.

no worries!

however, something came up later to worry abt:

As I clik on the link to d/load the .cab file, i get the following msg:

"Installation failed. The program or setting cannot be installed because it does not have adequate system permissions. Please contact your service provider for more information"

seen that one b4? Jst wondering - wats the file size of the sExp coz i knw theres a file size limit of 100 odd kb on my service providers wap gateway!

pls advise...
