Can not connect using LG Mobile Sync

Hi, i tried all the solutions on connecting the phone with PC, but it didn't work. My PC can recognize it as external drive - so there is nothing wrong with USB connection and i can do the 'darag and drop' of MP# or picture using Explorer. But when i open LGSync application, it said CAN NOT CONNECT TO MOBILE PHONE, CHECK CONNECTION and all the menu is grey. I also want to know how can we install new application such as game? Thanks in advance, Jibenk Have the same problem with KE970 mobile Menu - Settings - Connectivuty - USB Connection - Data Service But stiil LG Mobile Sync cannot connect,,,

    I am having problems wih the external memory chip, phone reads it okay, but pc locks up when the usb cable is connected. If the external memory is not inserted into the phone the pc reads the built in chip okay, and also detects that no external memory is in place. Tried connecting the phone on a friends pc, and it all worked fine. Can anyone help?

First, I followed steps suggested in "BEST SOLUTION" (see solution posted on Jun 30, 2008 by fnbryden.

Then, I restart LG Sync and tried to force connection by clicking the small icon "Connect" located in the upper left. LG Sync showed a message asking to restart the connection. I close and restart LG Sync again and force connection one more time...Success!!! Now I can see the phonebook, schedule, memos, messages...

I´m using WinXP with Service Pack 3 and the CD provided by the cell phone company.

Hey,
After reading and trying all the unsuccessful solutions I found one. The CD provided by the phone could be outdated therefore go to LG's site and download the latest driver. Delete the one on your computer and install the new one.

Good Luck.

Sony Vaio running Vista 32 bit & a LG KE850 Prada had the same problem with LG Mobile Sync not recognising that the phone was connected, but now working fine.

Try the following :

After downloading mobile Sync to your computer.

Open phone settings, then connectivity, then USB Connection & select Data Service.

Connect the phone to the computer, the computer then senses NEW HARDWARE and looks for & installs the drivers.

Once completed.

Open Mobile Sync, select connect icon and the compurter links with the phone and everything works fine from then on.

    Had same problem on a Sony Vaio running Vista 32 & the LG KE 850 Prada, with the phone locking up. Located the problem to the 2 MP3 players on the phone ie



    One under My Stuff/sounds/MP3 - phone internal memory



    and the other under MP3 Player. - Micro SD Card



    If you have music in the MP3 Player and Ringtones in the My Stuff/Sounds/MPS Player the phones locks up.



    The remedy is to move the ring tones to Downsloads, no conflicts so the phone does NOT lock up.



    My KE850 Prada now works fine - no problems!

Can not connect using LG Mobile Sync

Try changing 'Settings - Connectivity - USB connection' from 'Mass storage' to 'Data service'. I think that'll work (you'll have to change the setting back again if/when you want to copy files again. :-)

Can not connect using LG Mobile Sync

I have an LG 970 with precisely this stupid problem. In many, many ways, this phone is a complete nuisance. This particular stupidity is a phone setup issue, it cannot be a Mass storage Device and a Data Service at the same time.
Solution:
Phone, Menu, 9 Settings, 4 Connectivity, 3 USB connection, ...
- select "Mass storage" if you want to access images, sounds etc using Windows Explorer, just like any other USB stick
- select "Data service" if you want to use the LG Mobile Sync application

I had the same problem but now i have found the solution for it. Its not the software its the phone. Go to your Phone Settings hit Connectivity and then Usb Connection select Data Service and now connect your phone to the pc and select connect in Mobilesync and it should work. After you are done using MOBILE SYNC you can simple go in settings once again and choose mass storage for any downloads!!!

Can not connect using LG Mobile Sync

I have the same problem like everyone else in this forum! here is the solution:

1. The USB modem driver came with the CD may or will not work, so get the latest drivers for it.

2. Before install the new drivers, change your phone setting under " setting -> USB connection -> from MASS STORAGE to DATA LINK.

3. Plug the usb cable to the phone and to your PC, it should do anything or give any message if it does just cancel it for now.

4. Install the new USB driver you just download, while install it will said something like " does not work with XP " just click OK don't panic.

5. After it finished installed you will see by the clock that it find the USB LG blah blah...and ding ding sound if you have sound on.

6. Now go back to LG Sync software and click on Connect & choose LG modem com port whatever it there.

7. You're done !!!

Here the link where to get the new USB driver:

http://it.lgmobile.com/web/web.product.manualSoftwareRF.laf

Yeah the link is all Italian ...don't panic, I couldn't read it either LOL...just click on the picture where you see the phone and the PC with wrap around with arrow, then follow instruction will be in English.

Good Luck!
