My new Cell Phone

OK, so after keeping my old cell phone for over four years, I finally upgraded to a new Samsung "Juke" phone. It's small, has all the basic features I need, and also includes an MP3 player.
I read the "Verizon" instructions and I see that to get music into the phone, I have to load Verizon software on my PC, then buy all my music from them.. Not nice.
I read the book that comes with the phone and I see in fine print that I can also just plug in and use Windows Media Player 10. I try it at work, it sees the phone, but I'm not figuring out how to get any music into it.
So I get it back home and just for fun, I plug the cable into my AmigaOne. Now we're making progress. I drag and drop a dozen albums from my MP3 drawer and all of them play just great. Mission Accomplished!
Yes, I know, I'm sure it can be done from a PC as well, but it's nice to know that I can use Amiga tools to rip and encode MP3 files, then move them to my new phone. It works much easier than the software that Verizon expects me to use.
Now if I can just figure out how to download my own ringtones..

Must see it as a USB Mass Storage Device then?

Rude!

I just got a new Motorizr Z3 and didn't even bother trying to play around with the Windows software. Just plugged it into my A1's USB and it was automatically recognized. Copied some MP3s into the appropriate dir and the phone plays them perfectly.

I just bought a SanDisk Sansa c250 MP3 player and it doesn't show up in AOS 4 . I have to copy the files through Windows.

@hotrod

check the usb log maybe it's recognized as floppy,
if this it's the case you must substitute the july
masstorage.usbfd in devs:usb/fd with the AOS4 final
version.
Yiu can find the log in t:

I've got an SE K810i and is copying my mp3 from my a1,works good. So i got a 4gig stick for it :) I'm glad to see for my self and others that we can do more and more using our beloved amigans.

@Antique

Damnit. You got 2gb more then my K810 ;)

I have the same cell phone. If you bought it lately (I bought it 6 months ago) the firmware is upgraded and you can plug into the phone up to 2 GB SD RAM (and not 1 GB as the manual sugests). Also I have heard about some firmware hacks for the Z3 made by moto fans that could make the phone accept up to 4 GB.

Anyway, now that I saw Z8 in action, I am considering about upgrading again. In the US I think that the series have came at Z10 revision..
