Hi Mark
pcsync is available at ( http://www.vkmobile.com/club/pcsync.php ), I have down loaded this software but when I try to use it with the serial cable it will not work, I have tried changing the port settings to no avail, the usb cable is shown on ( http://www.vkmobile.com/phones/acc_vk530.php ),but when I have emailed vk they don't bother replying. I am searching the net to find out if i need any extra drivers to get it to work
cheers

JUst as a thought - did you chaps above simple plug and play your serial data cable ??
One reason it may have not worked is that on some serial interfaces you have to plug-in before you start your PC. Infact plug in all before switching either phone or PC on. Then start the phone FIRST.
Let me know how you get on or if anybody has any news about how to get hold of the USB cable, again please shout.

First off, I don’t feel it was very necessary to call me an idiot.
Secondly I didn't realise you were a shop. I just saw "Fone Fun Forum" in the name and no mention at all of a shop linking to it. Other than the now spotted link in the bottom right in about size 2 font.
Thirdly I was only trying to be helpful, as I like others have be waiting for these cables for ages. I know it is nothing to do with you; it is VK causing the hold up. I did say it was for unlocking, was only making a suggestion that someone might want to give it a go.
So perhaps a less of the abuse towards your potential customers, huh.

After reading rules, this rule comes to mind. 5. Insults are not tolerated!

ok, we have some VK usb cables in now
We have sucessfully tested them on the VK 530 and they work a treat
Also we have had a few customers beta test them before we released them on general sale
Many thanks to Mrs Collins, who managed to transfer MP3's using the cable :outstand:
We have decided to pack them with an extra CD containing the PCSync software :yes: some screen shots are below
The cables are in stock and are available @ http://www.fonefunshop.co.uk/datacables/vk.htm
