Need some help - I have a Samsung (KTF) sliding phone - not sure exact model - but it is very popular around town - I see many people with the same phone...

I finally bought a Samsung EVER 데이터케이블 KDC-U3000 (USB-cable) for 10,000 won that plugs into the phone - to allow me to download the pics/videos I have taken on the phone onto my computer (through the USB -plug-thingy)

anyway - whenever I plug it into the computer - it states - Samsung CDMA technology and then tries to instal (find) the appropriate software on my computer - or Windows XP files - which apparently I don't have - and ddidn't come with the purchase of the cable or phone....

has anyone had this similar problem - and what do I do - in order to download my pics from the cellphone to the computer using this USB-cable??

Is there a website that I can download the required software from etc?

thanks

You'll have to d/l a pc-sync manager program or sth similar. Take your battery out and check on the model number, which you'll most likely find under the battery. You'll have to search for it either on the Samsung site or the KTF one, assuming you have your acct with KTF.

If you go here...

...you'll find a drop-down selection of phone models for KTF, LGT and SKT. Find yours, d/l, and install.

Let me know if that works. If not, let me know the model number and I'll try sth else.

OK - my phone is a Samsung SGH-D415 Cell Phone - I found a picture of it at -

don't know if that helps - it seems by the web site you suggested to me - my cellphone is already out of date (I only bought it 17 months ago) - I guess I waited too long to buy the cable and download the software - ?

I'm assuming you didn't buy this phone in Korea?

Anyway, I think I tracked down what you need:

Ok - thanks for the great leads,

its probably surprising to you - but Yes - I bought the phone here in Korea - I think in November 2004 - but there were no cables or software that came with the phone for downloading the pics...

I have been to the sites and the picture of the cable on the first site - is exactle the SAME cable that I have (Samsung CDMA ....) - but when I download the driver - it downloads as a WINRar file - and when I "extract here" it has a choice of 2 programs - (1) is a program that is all in Korean (Hangu-mul) and it shows that flashlight-things searching for something and gives me 87 seconds to find whatever it is searching for - but my PC obviously doesn't have because it never find it - the second (2) program is a Windows XP driver remover program - which I clicked on and it erased my E: drive and USB: drives - luckily - it was easy to put them back....

maybe I am just useless at this kind of thing - but I am not angry - you have provided a lot of good detective work and great info - I guess I just don't know the basics o how to use it properly....

Cripes! (<---directed toward me for my stupidity)

This might be more helpful as you need other software, not just the drivers in order to access your photos and whatnot:

Or, you can buy it legally here:

I downloaded it and went to install it and got the message to remove all devices from USB ports before proceeding further...we now know they're serious about that...so, make sure you remove all things you have connected if you go this route, okay? Hope it works for you.
