Download drivers for your phone's USB data cable. Free!
To run SMSCaster E-Marketer with your mobile phone, a link has to be setup
by either a USB data cable or a Bluetooth dongle.
If you use a USB data cable as the link between the PC and mobile phone,
you need to install the Windows driver for the USB data cable. Most mobile phones
come with a CD which contains a bunch of software, including the driver
that you want and a software suite that you may not be interested in.
But the truth is that it's all or nothing: There's no way to install
just the driver only.
Sometimes, the software is outdated, causing you trouble in getting
your USB data cable and mobile phone recognized by the computer. In
this case, you need an updated driver for the USB data cable.
Here's an updated list of USB data cable drivers for free download.
The drivers are from various mobile phone manufacturers. |
Sony Ericsson K, W and Z series phones use DCU-60 data cable. The drivers for these phones are extracted from “Sony Ericsson PC Suite v2.10.34” for downloading. Within them is a "DPInst.exe" file, which will install over 200 Windows driver packages for these phones onto your computer. A better approach is to install only the driver required by the phone manually.
Steps to install driver manually:
- Plug in your phone to the computer and choose “Phone mode” at the phone.
- Choose “No, not this time” when prompted to connect to Windows Update.
- Choose “Install from a list or specific location (Advanced)”.
- Click “Include this location in the search” and browse for the driver location.
You need to repeat these steps several times for USB WMC Data Modem, USB WMC Modem, USB WMC OBEX Interface, USB WMC Device Management, USB Ethernet Emulation (WDM) and USB Ethernet Emulation (for Networking Device). Once it's done, the phone will get power from the cable and the battery will be charged.
