My VX8100 V7 MP3 Experience: hope this helps !
About a week ago I stepped into a VX 8100 V7 - my old phone was a 8000, which I had loaded with MP3s (cumbersome) and custom ringtones via BITPIM.
In brief, re, 8100, after MP3 activation via menu # 00000 workaround:
1) Phone software via Windows Media Player (WMP)did not allow me to dump MP3s via drag and drop onto my Sandisk 512 MB card WITH the phone hooked up via USB- they definately have this rigged so this so it is difficult - every time it showed a successful sync after drag and drop, the memory card was automatically erased.
2) Error messages were shown in WMP after attempting to pull MP3s into WMP for sync. The error message took me back to Microsoft website detailing that I had to purchase a MP3 to WMA converter - not a b...

I am unable to get my PC to recognize my phone. My PC seems unable to find the correct driver for the interface. I assumed the proper driver would be on the CD that came with the USB cable. My software version number is T81VZV07. I beleve this would be the same as V7. What am I doing wrong? Should I just save some headaches and buy a card reader?
Thanks,
Drew

Card readers that will read a variety of card types are fairly cheap and easy to use.
I picked one up at Frys electronics for 15.00

I had the same problem until I upgraded to Windows Media Player 10, once I installed that AND opened it up, then windows immediately recognized and connected my LGVX8100 right up... and now it sync's with no problems... but a side note WMP will convert any CD or MP3 to a WMA before loading it onto the phone... works fine just no EQ...

I have the same problem and I did upgrade to WMP 10 (btw, what the heck is Urge?) and I still can't get the computer to recognize my phone.
I have the VX8300 but the drivers/software are supposed to be the same.
Any ideas?

the newer Music Essentials kit that say 8100 and 9800 can be used with the 8300. I think the drivers/software is actually more similar to the 9800 than the 8100.
