I bought this cable knowing by reading the reviews that it might not work, so for the price I gave it a shot. This USB cable was a replacement for my other cable that was used as a chew toy by my dog. Since I already had DataPilot (susteen) software already installed as soon as I plugged it into my computer with the phone attached it saw it as a (susteen USB cable) and installed all the drivers on winXP, if you don't have susteen drivers/software you can obtain the drivers for the USB cable for your phone from their website (free download). I never used the installation CD that came with this USB cable and I installed this cable on 3 different computers and yes it also works with the DataPilot software, but I like using BitPIM software for my VX8300

I was able to get this cable working eventually after some research on my own. The cable itself is O.K. but I had to locate the correct drivers on my own and it's definitely not intuitive, and definitely not plug-and-play. Support from the seller consisted of referring me to a competitor's website to locate the drivers on my own. Also, (and with no offense intended) if you think a driver is a person behind a steering wheel then this is not the product for you.

DO NOT order from this company. The cable does not fit in the phone. Unfortunately, I did not read the reviews before purchasing from Eforcity. The cable came a few days late. When it arrived, the cable did not even fit. The software for the cable was defective. After it had finished installing, Windows XP came up with an error message that stated the completion of this installation could cause corruption with the operating system. Eforcity is awful.

The cable worked. That's about it. The software provided did not work, and it did not include the VX8300 model?! There was no contact information for the manufacturer, and I spent hours upon hours finding an appropriate driver, plus I had to find software to use this thing.

I have a UX245. As you can tell from the item name, this product should have been compatible with my phone. However, when installing the cd, you are asked to pick your phone from the list. My phone wasn't even on the list. Then I got a message saying it woulrd corrupt my computer if I continued to download. However--who wants to send it back for a refund when you lose shipping and the shipping was as much as the item!!!!!!!!

USB jack did not fit my phone and had to be dismantled and carved with a knife to squeeze it in (it works now, but has to be held in by hand). Came with no instructions, and, if you don't have a pretty solid knowledge of drivers, you won't be able to figure this out. The driver CD is useless more or less, since they don't send you a "product number," which is needed to access the menu on the CD.

It works, and I am able to send files to and from my phone, but this is after approximately two or three hours of downloading fixes and configuring my computer, and a whole lot of cursing. I won't be ordering anything from them again, and if I had it to do over, I'd order the cable from a different company.

works with my LG-VX5300, found a free program called BITPIM that works as an interface for adding/removing pics, ringtones, contacts, whatever.

The only support I received was to send me to a competitor's homepage and try to download their software.

The only problem was it would pop out every once in a while from the phone, the locking mechanism didn't work quite right. Never was a huge issue though.

I already had the drivers for my LG VX8100. My old cable died. This replacement one works fine.
