I bought a Cingular LG F7200 phone and I can not get my damn phone to connect via data cable. It needs some kind of software and none came with the cable. HELP!

After witnessing the continued decrease of involvement in the SpotterNetwork staff in serving SN members with troubleshooting issues recently, I have unilaterally decided to terminate the relationship between SpotterNetwork's support and Stormtrack. I have witnessed multiple users unable to receive support weeks after initiating help threads on the forum. I find this lack of response from SpotterNetwork officials disappointing and a failure to hold up their end of the agreement that was made years ago, before I took over management of this site. In my opinion, having Stormtrack users sit and wait for so long to receive help on SpotterNetwork issues on the Stormtrack forums reflects poorly not only on SpotterNetwork, but on Stormtrack and (by association) me as well. Since the issue has not been satisfactorily addressed, I no longer wish for the Stormtrack forum to be associated with SpotterNetwork.
I apologize to those who continue to have issues with the service and continue to see their issues left unaddressed. Please understand that the connection between ST and SN was put in place long before I had any say over it. But now that I am the "captain of this ship," it is within my right (nay, duty) to make adjustments as I see necessary. Ending this relationship is such an adjustment.
For those who continue to need help, I recommend navigating a web browswer to SpotterNetwork's About page, and seeking the individuals listed on that page for all further inquiries about SpotterNetwork.
From this moment forward, the SpotterNetwork sub-forum has been hidden/deleted and there will be no assurance that any SpotterNetwork issues brought up in any of Stormtrack's other sub-forums will be addressed. Do not rely on Stormtrack for help with SpotterNetwork issues.
Sincerely, Jeff D.

Are you BamaStormChasr on Howardforums? If not, try posting to the LG section of that forum and see if someone can help you (someone w/ the alias of BamaStormChasr inquired about this on Howardforums, though I suspect, since you're in AL, that it may be you LOL). If you are, then I don't know what to tell you. I looked through the LG site to see if they had instructions on tethering, but didn't find anything. For my Moto MPx220, there is a menu selection called "Modem Link", in which I need to choose to activate the USB modem. IF I do this, then I can set up a dial-up networking connecting in Windows and connect successfully. There's usually a driver that you need to install to get this to work, however. Did a disk or anything come with data cable kit?

LOL...That is me. I bought the data cable seperate at radioshack and no the phone nor the cable came with any software. The cable didnt even come with drivers. The cable for the VX6000 is what works on this phone but I can not find any software for my phone model. I wonder if I can use that software to get it to work.... at least I hope

Brett,
Have you fired off an email to LG support? Not sure if they have a good email address, but it'd be worth a shot IMO.

Getting things connected was a pain in the ass for me too... I just ended up buying "DataPilot" at CompUSA and connected that way. I still had a few issues though...

Nah, Jeff I actually haven't. I haven't found a good email address to get them at actually.
