Getting Connected
by mikekay10
This guide is intended to help you get your L7 connected to the computer so that you can mod it using p2k
programs.
Step 1. Get the
software
Go to Motodev
Download “Motorola
USB Driver”
Also download the P2k program you
intend to use from our
downloads section
It would also be a good idea to
locate RSD Lite – you will
have to use Google to find this as it is classed as warez and we cannot
give
links
Step 2.
Install the
driver program
Extract the file
“Motorola_EU_Driver_Installation.msi” from the
zip file you downloaded.
Double click on this file and the
installation will start.
Click next and the EULA will appear
Click on "I Agree" (obviously having read the agreement first  ),
then next
The program will now install
Click close to end the install procedure
During the installation process you may see the following screen 1 or
more times
Should this appear hit "Continue Anyway"
Step 3: Install the
drivers
You will now have a new program group in your start>programs
menu -
"Motorola Driver Installer", with a shortcut called "Motorola
Driver Installer.exe" within it.
Make sure the phone is disconnected at this time.
Run this program, and it will whether the drivers are already
installed, when this is complete you will see the following screen
Under "Operation Mode" (lower left), select "Clean and Reinstall" (the
bottom option).
Then hit "Start"
The program will then do its thing. When it is finished hit "Exit"
You may get the message about Windows Logo testing again - if you
do hit "Continue Anyway"
Step 4: Connect the phone
Make sure the phone is turned on then connect the USB cable. It is best
to use a USB port on the rear of the PC rather than front mounted ports
as these sometimes connect to the motherboard via a hub
When you plug the phone in Windows will find new hardware - Motorola
Phone (V3), then Motorola USB Modem. The installation should
complete without intervention.
You should now be able to connect using Mobile Phone Tools, the phone
should also be charging.
We now want to install the P2k Drivers. First make sure MPT is not
running.
Now with the phone still connected run one of the P2k programs, I
generally use P2kMan - but thats just me.
When you do this Windows should find several new devices and after a
short while the new hardware wizard will run. In the rare event the new
hardware wizard does not start, install and run RSD Lite.
The first screen to appear asks if you wish to connect to Windows Update
Select "No, not this time", then click on "Next"
Choose "Install the software automatically (Recommended)", then hit
"Next"
The driver for Accessories Interface is then installed, after a short
while the following screen is displayed
Click "Finish"
The new hardware wizard will then run again
Once again select "No, not this time", then click on "Next"
This time the wizard asks for drivers for "Data Logging MCU Interface".
Choose "Install the software automatically (Recommended)", then hit
"Next"
Again the drivers are installed then after a short while the
following screen is displayed.
Click "Finish"
The new hardware wizard will then run for a third time
At the first screen select "No, not
this time", then click on "Next" in the same way as before
This time the wizard asks for drivers for "Test Command Interface".
Choose "Install the software automatically (Recommended)", then hit
"Next"
Again
the drivers are installed then after a short while the following screen
is displayed.
Click "Finish"
Your P2k drivers are now installed and the P2k programs should
recongnise the phone
Remember if you connect using a different USB port in the future,
Windows will recongnise new hardware and you will need to repeat these
steps
Step 5: Flash Interface
Device
If at anytime you choose to flash your phone you will need the Flash
Interface device installed. This device is used to communicate with the
phone while it is in bootloader mode.
In order to run the hardware installation wizard for this device you
can do one of two things. Either use RSD Lite to flash the phone as
normal (browse to the file and hit start) and RSD Lite will switch the
phone to bootloader mode for you. Alternatively you can start in
bootloader manually (hold * and # while turning the phone on), then
connect the USB cable.
Either way the new hardware wizard will run again.
As before select "No, not this time", then click on "Next"
Choose "Install the software automatically (Recommended)", then hit
"Next"
Again
the drivers are installed then after a short while the following screen
is displayed.
Click "Finish" and you are done - you can now flash your phone with RSD
Lite.
Once more remember if you connect using a different USB port in the
future,
Windows will recongnise new hardware and you will need to repeat these
steps
Congrats you have gotten your phone connected and can now start your modding with P2k programs!!!
