Help! cell phone program

Alcoholiday · 10-03-2007, 02:35 PM

Hey, i have a Samsung a900m phone. I had a free program i downloaded on my computer for transferring the pictures and videos from my phone onto my computer. But, somehow it got erased.

Basically, sprint wants you to spend 30-40 bucks on a program to let you put pictures onto your computer. But, i had the program, i just don't know where i found it. If you don't have it, you plug the phone into your computer through a usb port, and the computer doesn't read the new device.

Anyone have any ideas where i can find it for download?

I use BitPim with my Verizon LG phone, and I had to download a driver for it. Not sure where I found either one, but The Google knows.

Alc- I work for Sprint, so Ill try and help. You should be able to log onto sprint.com, then register (if you havent done so already) online. On there, you can pay your bill, and you should have access to your pictures/videos right there for free. Any pictures or videos you take should be there and you can set up albums, share, etc.

Not sure if this is what you mean, but let me know..

Umm, you're saying that any pictures or videos that you take with your Sprint phone are automatically uploaded to the mother ship? Not sure I like that concept much.

they're not on the website. i think on sprint's site, you login to view pictures received from other people and such.

what i'm talking about it the program needed for your computer to read the phone via usb port.

BitPim is free http://www.bitpim.org/, and you can get a free driver from http://www.cellphonemall.net/wireles...l.asp?id=24356

Well, you have your own username and password, so unless you give that out, I wouldnt be too concerned.

Ditto. Haven't paid for a ringtone since

Mark57 · 10-04-2007, 03:07 PM

Yep, free ringtones. And saving my contacts to computer is a big one for me too.

I use the VZW Backup Assistant for my contacts. It's free, it's daily, and I don't even have to think about it then.
