Motorola Phone Tools doesn't work with RAZR V3m?

aliensanity,

I did as you said and removed all traces of the motorola phone tools and any other motorola software and the phone was recognized and installed properly.

I can charge the phone through the USB port and that is about all it does. I will go back to the begining and try out some of the information up front in order to get it going properly. I will post information as I move along.

Thank You all for the help so far.

ok, go into device manager, and u should see:

Motorola USB Device
->Accessories Interface
->Data Logging MCU Interface
->Test Command Interface

If so, proceed to install and run p2kseem.


This is a post input by cincyball. There was no information for those that do not have this information showing. What do we do if that is the case for us. My V3M is charging, I have my ESN and cannot go any further right now.

A little more help and we will be there.

Thanks again,
ivbn4given

 

Cincyball,

Your instructions are great and allowed me to get the phone to work properly. I engaged my think muscle and your instructions and WOW!!

You are great,
Thanks for the help and support,

Dear ivbn4given,
I'm sorry I left one little part out that might help. I also reset my phone. I don't know if it made a difference or not. Please forgive me

HELP!! please...

I followed the steps in the 1st 2 pages and everything worked great. No my computer won't recognize the phone under device manager I get the usb modem but with a yellow caution like if there were no drivers for it. I installed the drivers given in this thread. In the beginning I had the same problem and then I pluged the phone on a different usb port and bam it started charging. Now I've tried all 8 of my usb ports and none work. I don't know what I did wrong.

Thanks

 

I recommend that you delete all traces of the motorola phone tools and all traces of motorola that may be on the computer. Then follow the steps again; after I deleted all traces of motorola, I followed the steps and it worked great for me.

 

^^^Agreed, but one thing I would do is install MPT first and update it prior to installing the drivers. If you install the drivers first then update MPT you drivers get hosed some times because the MPT drivers don't work correctly which is why you need to use the Moto drivers instead

 

I'm looking at staying with Verizon now that my wife and I have Dock-N-Talk at home using her phone - reception with my current phone stinks in the house.

Anyway, I'm looking at getting MOTOKRZR K1m and wondering if these same steps on pages 1-2 work for this phone OR is there something different to be done, but in a similar fashion?

Thanks, Michael

 

^^^Yes the setup for the Krzr ( ie k1m) is the same as using a v3m.

 

Hey, thanks for all the great information here. I have a KRZR k1m and I have successfully made the 2 seem edits, and the MPT now shows the Media Studio... But I am unable to transfer any images (.jpg) or music (.mp3) or anything for that matter to the phone. I get the following error: Request denied by phnone (Unsupported media type (0x4F)).

I have MTP 4.5.6a and a KRZR k1m I bought in December 2007. My provider is Verizon

Is there a missing seem edit? First edit was "Bluetooth or USB file transfer in MPT", but this was already checked. The Phone software version is 24.1_01.19.05.

IF you can help or assist at all with this, that would be GREAT.

Jim

Thanks in advance:browani:

 

Hello All,

Hello,

I been truying for days & days to fight this battle.

I just got the latest Motorola Phonetools & installs ok & when it asks
me to plug modem in I do. I am using a USB cable & it detects phone &
all then I get this message while modem installing found new hardware
motorola USB composite Device then I get cannot install hardware fatal
error. I tried all my USB ports & on my other PC same thing. I
uninstalled & reinstall the program several times & about to through
this phone in the trash..

i googled on this found several others having this issue but no
answer.

I want to add music & all & change my wallpaper etc but i cant get PC
to install it. I went to motorola web site & downloaded seperate
drivers but same error.

what the fix for this ?

 

Hey HHHIDoc,
Welcome,
READ this thread from page one and do what Cincyball suggests, You will be able to do all that and much more.
Much luck.

 

I have seemed my KRZR K1m just as this thread directed, and I have updated MPT, but when I activate MPT, I get the message "Initializing . . . Please wait"; I also see "Communication port unavailable". What do I need to do to resolve this?

 

I am having trouble with my P2K Commander. Right after it loads the files from my phone, I get a message that it must shut down. What am I doing wrong? Is there some other way to download ringtones to my KRZR K1m>

 

I have resolved this issue.

 

have v3m w/verizon, have 4.36 update, mpt recognizes phone, no media suit option, someone said u could just select phon v3mm from phone list and it would give u the media option, how do u select a diferent phone if mpt detects your phone? (preferably w/out haking)

 

Does this same fix work with Alltel RAZR V3?

 

Cincyball,
I have been reading this thread, and I was wondering if the fix in posts 21 - 77? will work with my new Alltel Motorola Razor V3a. I am assuming yes, but I thought I would ask before messing around with it.

Motorola Phone Tools - do I have to buy?

Ok I've read the first 80 or so posts, and last ones on page 27, and I'm just wondering, do you have to purchase the Motorola Phone Tools? I'm cheap...
I see it sold in vaious places, but is that a convience thing, or you can get it from Verizon for free?

Please let me know, my v3m and Krzr are coming in the next day or two for use with Verizon. Want to be able to use them for music.
I still don't have the microSd cards, but I'll get those ASAP.

Sounds like I have to go through all this stuff to allow the phone to work properly, and download songs, ringtones, etc. Oh-well.

This is a really great site BTW!:browani:

 

I have gone over the steps listed, and am now able to tranfer pictures, but not Ringtones. My new Verizon Wireless Silver RAZR V3m SW version is 24.1_01.19.07

I found a comment in the forums at Hack theRAZR.com that mentions that Verizon has found a way to not allow the Seem edit to take effect with their latest SW version. Is that possible, or did I miss something?

 

I'm having the exact same issue. I went through the first posts and did it all step by step, I can now see the muiltimedia icon, but it tells me "Request denied by phone (Unsupported media type (0x4F)" when I try to upload a song. ( I tried it as an MP3 and a wav, just to make sure.)

Is this due to the verison update someone mentioned a few psosts back?

Thoughts, comments, suggestions?
Thanks
Rev

 

Unfortunately, someone insulted cincyball in another thread, and he hasn't posted since then. We may never know...

cincyball, PLEASE COME BACK!!!

 

I am trying to make my picture show on the face of the phone because the orange Verizon is terrable. I tried to use these programs but the only one that is available is the P2Kseem. any advice? I Joined your forum today because I saw how discriptive you are

 

Help - I'm unable to download the MSU file from the hack the razr link website - does anyone else know where/how I can download file? thx. actually, found it...I'll get it a try - thx...

 

Just bought myself and the wife each a V3m and want to be able to use multimedia, I am running MPT 4.5.6 but need the P2kSeem when I go to the mentioned download site I get an errror page. Can someone lead me to here I can find it. Please bare with me I'm completely new at this but of course MPT multimedia is disabled. Thanks in advance

 

Think I found it. I'll give it a try after work and post results

 

You guys are awesome, 1 down and 1 to go . Thanks sooooo much

 

Well I had multimedia for about 1 hour, and this morning when opening MPT it does not show it. Reinstalled MPT and still nothing. What do I do now ???

 

Got it going again, but when trying to send a ringtone from computer to phone it state denied due to type not found/ I have trie wave and mp3 both with no luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated
