Re: Samsung D500 mobile phone connection via USB cable

Mark Hobley staggered into the Black Sun and said:
I have a Samsung D500 mobile phone, and a USB cable. I was wondering
if I can connect this to my Linux computer somehow and transfer files
to and from the phone.

I tried connecting the phone up, and I was hoping this would just
appear as a USB mass storage device

Yeah. Right. If you could use standard protocols to transfer data
to/from a phone, what do you think this would do to a phone company's
profit margins? There might be something usable if you search
freshmeat.net for "samsung"; that gave me the sambru package as well as
a ringtone app. Try those out. I don't know for sure as my phone's a
very primitive model and I don't even have a cable for it. HTH anyway,
