Use of syncCABLE
foneGEAR syncCABLE is designed to act as a “Plug and Play” device. All you
need to do is plug it into your phone and your computer, and you will then be
able to click, drag and drop files from your computer drives to the memory
storage space in your cellular phone.
To use syncCABLE, grasp both ends of the cable and pull smoothly and gently
with equal force on both ends to extend the cable. syncCABLE provides a 34”
retractable cord, enable you to find a convenient distance between your phone
and your computer.
After extending syncCABLE, plug the USB charger end into your computer’s
USB port, and then plug the phone charger end of syncCABLE into your phone’s
charging port. At this point, a variety of scenarios may occur, depending on your
phone model and software, whether you have a memory card installed in your
phone, and your computer type and operating system. Due to the thousands of
variations in phone/computer/software combinations, it would be impossible for
foneGEAR to outline every scenario, but these are among the most common:
a. Your computer displays a dialogue bubble indicating that it has
recognized the phone as an attached mass-storage device or disk
drive. At this point the computer may open a folder showing the location
of your phone or your phone’s memory card. At this point you may “drag
and drop” files directly into this folder, and syncCABLE will automatically
transfer them to your phone.
b. Your computer displays a dialogue bubble indicating that it has
recognized the phone as an attached mass-storage device or disk
drive, but does not open a new folder showing the device. At this
point, navigate to your computer’s “My Computer” or folder and see if your
phone device is listed among the drives on your computer. If so, you may
“drag and drop” files directly into this folder, and syncCABLE will
automatically transfer them to your phone.
c. Your computer does not display a dialogue bubble or open a new
folder showing the device. Navigate to your computer’s “My Computer”
or folder and see if your phone device is listed among the drives on your
computer. If so, you may “drag and drop” files directly into this folder, and
syncCABLE will automatically transfer them to your phone.
d. Your computer does not display a dialogue bubble or open a new
folder showing the device, and it is not displayed in your computer’s
“My Computer” folder. You may need a driver or other phone or
computer software from your cellular carrier or phone manufacturer for

your syncCABLE to function properly. Please see below for information
on obtaining compatibility software.
Please be sure to consult with the User Guide or Operation Manual for your
specific cellular phone for details on how to transfer music files or other data to
your phone. If you no longer have the manual, it will typically be available on the
internet site for your handset manufacturer (Motorola, BlackBerry, etc.) or on the
internet site of your phone carrier (Sprint, Verizon, etc.).
Troubleshooting
If your syncCABLE does not immediately work as a “plug and play” device, it
probably needs a driver or other software from your cellular carrier or phone
manufacturer to work properly. Here are phone models that will need driver
updates or other software to work properly with syncCABLE, as well as a link to
download the software online:
