P2k Driver
The drivers for using P2KMan, or MPT?
For P2KMan, the drivers are included in the zip file and you just need to point the driver search to the "drv" folder wherever you extract P2KMan.
For MPT, first off make sure you have the latest update of it. The prompts as you start it up should walk you through and do pretty much all of the driver installation itself.
If the driver is just not working after that, see if you phone is showing up in Device Manager with or without a ding (exclamation point) next to it. Quickest way to Device Manager is to right-click on "My Computer" (either on your desktop or in the Start menu) and choose Properties. Then click the Hardware tab at the top and then the Device Manager Button on the middle of that ...

Did you download the version of P2KMan provided by the link in the guide?
At the very bottom of the P2KMan window should be "Uploading Path:" with a textbox to the right of it. If for some reason there is no textbox there for you, for this particular file (gain_table.bin) it SHOULD be acceptable to skip that step.
The SEEM files are a bit different and not covered by the guide. With the newest version of P2KMan they changed the wording on the buttons around, so the button to upload the gain_table.bin file is "PC >>> Phone". That should be it. Let me know if it works or not.
I've made some changes to my guide to reflect the things different in the newest version of P2KMan; FETNU has kindly hosted the newest version of my guide on his sit...

i read on fetnu site and tried to do it the way you explained but when i type in /a/ then hit pc >> phone it opens the window ,then i select the modified gain table then hit open ,it then where it should say uploading file /a/gain.table ok ,it says uploading file /a/gain.table GENERIC FAILURE !! dont know what i`m doing wrong?????
...
Hmm, not a very helpful error message eh? Doesn't sound like you're doing anything wrong there.
Try disconnecting your phone, cycling the power on it (by holding the red End button to shut it off, then again to turn it back on).
Another thing you can try is reinstalling the drivers for the phone.
Let me know if you still have problems.

how do you reinstall the drivers for the phone ? i tried to delete p2k folder ,so i can download them again , but it wont let delete it because its a protected file !!??
...
I'm sure it won't let you delete them since the drivers are in use.
Simplest way to reinstall the drivers? Usually if you disconnect the USB cable from your computer and then plug it into a different USB port on your computer it will go back through the driver installation process and you can then point to the "drv" folder wherever you have P2KMan installed.
If that's not viable, you can do the following. This is a step-by-step walkthrough of the entire process of fully reinstalling the driver.
Click the Start button, right-click on My Computer, and choose Properties from the drop-down menu. Click the Hardware tab at the top, then click the Device Manager button. In device manager you should see an entry under Modems for "Motorola USB M...

ok i tried both ways first i unplugged the usb cord into another slot and reinstalled the drivers then when i went to upload the new gain_table it said the same thing again upload file : generic failure!!so then i tried to reinstall p2k drivers the other way .when i get to the step where i click device manager button it doesnt show "motorola usb modem" it shows "motorola usb device", when i right click on that it only shows two options 1: scan for hardware changes 2: properties!!! do you think i have a bad cable? it downloaded the files from the phone to the computer,but i cant seem to get the file back to the phone!!
...
I would think since it downloaded the file from the phone that the cable isn't bad; P2KMan still loads a directory listing on your phone and gives you the same error every time you try to upload the file, right?
Try downloading the gain_table.bin file from your phone again, then upload that same unmodified file back to the phone. This will let you know that the software is still working, and indicate whether the modified file is what it's having problems with.
For the driver listing, does "Motorola USB Device" have the little + sign next to it or is it listed under Modems? In the right-click menu it should give you the options of Update Driver..., Disable, and Uninstall besides those 2 basic options. The menu items will show those 2 option...
