    Ive made sure usb debugging is enabled but what i havent done is checked the phone is set to charge only as i dont know how to do it and im not sure the debug interface drivers are installed.

    Thanks

    Trying the wifi option, wasnt aware it was an option.

  • This how i add my music

    Important don't connect lead at this time

    Go to settings
    Wireless and network
    USB utilites
    Connect Storage to PC
    Now connect your USB lead
    Now press connect USB storage

    I use Linux Mint not Windows but should work just the same
    I made a music folder on my sd card and put my music in there
    hope this helps
  • I have problems with the Kies software also, so use Kies Air to transfer to/from the phone.

  • Hello DCFC79 ........ Sorry the only reason my reply may now seem a bit "OTT" is that you have edited/changed your reply to my original suggestion to attach and send an email. Your original reply was that it was still a bit of a "Faff" Not "An option i guess"

    I was only trying to help with a simple suggestion !
